82: Chapter 82 Dongfang Bai

The next day, at noon.

The area around Luofeng Slope was already packed with people.

However, these people only dared to hide in the distant forests and watch from afar, not daring to get close.

Everyone in the Jianghu who had seen Invincible East was dead.

If not for the fact that the Five Great Sword Sects were gathering here today, they wouldn't even dare to come, let alone watch from a distance.

Of course, there were also those who were different from them.

Su Xuan and his group drove their carriage, swaggering right down the middle of the road.

Their boldness, as well as the unusual shape of their carriage, drew frequent sideways glances from the onlookers.

In front of the carriage door was a spacious wooden platform.

Gongsun Lüe drove the carriage, while Su Xuan and the others sat there, drinking wine and enjoying the scenery along the way.

It must be said, a carriage of this scale truly couldn't have been built without the blueprints personally designed by Su Xuan and the 'generous support' of the wealthy Kublai Khan.

The arrival of Su Xuan and his group naturally also caught the attention of the Five Great Sword Sects.

"Benefactor?!" Yi Lin's pretty face lit up with joy, nearly exclaiming aloud.

Although she managed to swallow her voice in time, Abbess Ding Yi beside her heard it clearly.

Frowning slightly, Abbess Ding Yi asked Yi Lin, "Yi Lin, do you know these people?"

Seeing her Master ask, Yi Lin dared not lie and answered truthfully, "Yes, yes. Yesterday, when Tian Boguang was targeting your disciple, it was that Brother Su who saved me."

"Tian Boguang?" Hearing the name of this flower-picking thief, Abbess Ding Yi's expression changed to shock, asking anxiously, "Yi Lin, then did you..."

Seeing her Master's worried thoughts, Yi Lin quickly shook her head like a little squirrel, "No, no, Brother Su arrived in time, your disciple is fine..."

This conversation naturally fell into the ears of the other two Abbesses nearby. Hearing that Yi Lin was unharmed, they also felt relieved.

Abbess Dingxian said, "Alright, since Yi Lin is fine, we can discuss this matter later. For now, let's deal with the immediate situation."

Today's decisive battle was no ordinary one; there were bad actors within the Five Great Sword Sects!

Thinking this, Abbess Dingxian's peripheral glance fell upon Zuo Lengchan, who stood not far away, composed and unruffled.

"Yes, Sect Head Senior Sister." Abbess Ding Yi collected her thoughts. Before turning around, she cast another glance towards Su Xuan.

As if sensing something, Su Xuan also looked in her direction. Meeting Abbess Ding Yi's gaze, he nodded slightly towards her.

Abbess Ding Yi felt a surge of surprise within. What formidable perception.

To be able to save Yi Lin from Tian Boguang's hands, his strength was indeed not weak.

Abbess Ding Yi steadied herself and quickly turned back around.

"Junior Martial Uncle, open wide~" Little Dragon Girl, holding a freshly peeled grape, brought it to Su Xuan's lips.

Su Xuan snapped back to attention and ate the grape.

Suddenly remembering something, Su Xuan smiled and asked, "Master, you're always mentioning Invincible East. What does Invincible East actually look like?"

"For you, this iron tree, to consider her a sister, your disciple is truly curious... Hey?! Master, why are you pinching my ear~"

Lin Chaoying, who had been massaging Su Xuan's temples, suddenly pinched his pig-like ear, "Who are you calling an iron tree~"

As she spoke, she didn't forget to roll her eyes prettily, "Wait a moment, and you'll find out."

As soon as her words fell, Gongsun Lüe's voice came, "Master, look quickly, Martial Aunt's friend has appeared!"

Gongsun Lüe stopped the carriage. Su Xuan looked in the direction she pointed.

They saw a woman dressed in a set of red garments descend from the sky.

Slender red silks swirled around her, drifting down with her, like a celestial maiden of the Nine Heavens surrounded by stars.

Looking closely, the woman's face was exquisitely beautiful, carrying a hint of heroic spirit. Her every movement exuded an aura of authority.

She gave a feeling of breathtaking beauty that could not be violated, something to be desired yet not dared to be profaned.

"A woman in red, with peerless beauty. Dongfang Bai, truly 'Bai' (white/pure)... Ouch~ Master~ Why are you hitting me again~"

"Thump~"

Hearing Su Xuan's comment, Lin Chaoying, who originally wore a smile, raised her hand and flicked his big forehead after hearing the latter part.

"Your Master brought you here to get medicinal herbs, not to flirt with girls!"

"Your disciple wasn't flirting..."

"Hmm? Still talking back?"

"Ahem, no backtalk, no backtalk. Master is right..."

Seeing Su Xuan like this, the other girls couldn't help but cover their mouths and chuckle softly.

It was too rare. In the Ancient Tomb, only Lin Chaoying and Mu Tingxue could do this, dared to do this.

On the other side, Invincible East lightly stepped with her jade-like feet, alighting on a treetop. Her phoenix eyes swept slightly, and a cold smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, "Since everyone is present, today, this seat shall send you all to the western paradise together!"

As soon as her words fell, they provoked a torrent of angry curses from the Five Great Sword Sects.

"Arrogant..."

"Invincible East, how dare you look down on us like this..."

"Today is your death day..."

"Swish" "Swish" "Swish" "..."

Before the clamor from the Five Great Sword Sects' side could die down, several silver needles shot over at high speed.

Instantly, they took the lives of those who had been shouting the most fiercely.

The bird that sticks its head out gets shot. The attack came too quickly. Before the Five Great Sword Sects could react, a batch of them had already died.

Zuo Lengchan's eyes widened, "Attack!"

As Zuo Lengchan's voice fell, the experts from the Five Great Sword Sects' side flew out together, charging towards Invincible East.

Invincible East was not to be outdone either. With a casual strike, she took the life of one of them.

"Master, they're ganging up on her!" Gongsun Lüe ran up to Su Xuan's side, pointing indignantly at the battle over there.

Su Xuan patted Gongsun Lüe's lovely hair, "What's the rush? In front of a truly powerful expert, does sheer numbers matter?"

Gongsun Lüe was somewhat puzzled and raised her eyes to look again.

The situation of the battle had already undergone a clear change, or rather, the outcome was already decided.

Many on the Five Great Sword Sects' side were already dead or injured, with only Zuo Lengchan and a few others struggling to hold on.

Invincible East looked young, but her strength was far above theirs.

Looking at the nearly annihilated experts of the Five Great Sword Sects, a cold smile appeared at the corner of Invincible East's mouth.

"Swish"

Another silver needle shot out, heading straight for Zuo Lengchan's face.

Zuo Lengchan's expression changed to shock. He instinctively used the long sword in his hand to block.

"Clang"

With a crisp sound, the long sword snapped.

However, it also deflected the needle's trajectory, causing it to pass through Zuo Lengchan's shoulder.

Zuo Lengchan retreated rapidly, his sword dragging along the ground for over ten meters before he barely stabilized his stance. He spat out a mouthful of blood and glared furiously towards the directions of Mount Heng and Mount Hua, "Why aren't you two acting?!"
