Ji Yunxi smiled brightly and looked at the leading woman in the distance. "Is it your turn next?"
The woman returned her smile and waved her hand. Immediately, the two maids behind her drew their swords and charged towards Ji Yunxi and her two companions.
Ji Yunxi put Nian Yun down and took the sword from Feng Xingzhi to defend herself.
Du Tianchen was stunned for a moment, then turned around to help, while Feng Xingzhi remained standing where he was.
The two maids were obviously specially trained. They attacked fiercely, aiming straight for the vital points and eager to kill everyone. Moreover, they were good at coordinated combat. Every time they made a move, their attacks and defenses were well - coordinated.
On the contrary, Ji Yunxi and Du Tianchen were fighting separately. There was no formation or cooperation between them.
"Du Tianchen, separate them!" Ji Yunxi suddenly shouted. Then she leaped into the air and directly separated the two maids who had been standing together. The two maids' faces changed, and even the woman in the distance unconsciously tightened her hands.
Others might not know, but as their mistress, she was very clear that their advantage was the twin - sword combination. Once separated, their abilities would be greatly reduced.
Sure enough, after Ji Yunxi separated them, she and Du Tianchen each faced one maid. The two maids immediately began to struggle.
Ji Yunxi curled her lips into a smile. "Is this all you've got? How can you protect your mistress like this?"
This was clearly an attempt to sow discord. The two maids paused, and their subsequent attacks became increasingly hasty.
Ji Yunxi was in full control. She even caught one of the maids and started to toy with her. Several times, she almost took the maid's life but then stopped.
This humiliation made the maid even more anxious.
The maid who was entangled with Du Tianchen was relatively calm. She knew that Du Tianchen was not as powerful as Ji Yunxi, so she gradually found Du Tianchen's weaknesses. Before long, Du Tianchen was having trouble holding his ground.
He looked around and noticed Feng Xingzhi still standing in place. For some reason, he found Feng Xingzhi annoying. So while fighting, he shouted, "How could you have the nerve to say you wanted to stay just now? Now you can't even lift a finger. Are you just waiting to die here?!"
He seemed to have forgotten everything that had happened before and only remembered that Feng Xingzhi hadn't made a single move.
His angry shouts reached Ji Yunxi's ears. She wasn't happy. She quickly knocked down one of the maids and then came to help Du Tianchen. "Why are you so talkative?"
The other maid was also taken care of by Ji Yunxi. Du Tianchen was a bit stunned. He had known that Ji Yunxi was powerful before, but he thought they were about the same. He didn't expect her to be this strong!
"So you're this powerful?"
Ji Yunxi was a bit proud. She directly inserted the sword back into the scabbard on Feng Xingzhi's waist. "When did I ever say I was weak?"
Du Tianchen's eyes showed a bit of envy. "No wonder you're willing to bring along a useless pretty boy."
Ji Yunxi paused. She suddenly didn't want to bring this so - called junior disciple with her anymore. He really didn't think before he spoke, which was really annoying.
"If you keep talking nonsense, I'll cut out your tongue!"
"I..."
"What? Do you still want to argue? Didn't we agree that you should listen to me as long as you follow me?"
Du Tianchen was speechless. Now that he had calmed down, he remembered how Feng Xingzhi had made his move before. It wasn't that Feng Xingzhi didn't want to help, but that the time hadn't come yet.
He immediately wilted. He hung his head and walked up to Feng Xingzhi. "I said the wrong thing. Please don't take it to heart."
Feng Xingzhi didn't mind what he said. He just nodded.
Over there, the leading woman saw from afar that her maids had died at their hands. She was gnashing her teeth with hatred. No wonder Lu Chengming had suffered a great loss at their hands. It was really understandable.
She slowly walked out, looked at Ji Yunxi, and sneered. "It seems I underestimated you."
Ji Yunxi laughed in return. "I didn't underestimate you. It's just that you're really not that good. You're a cruel and vicious woman. You already knew our abilities, but you still provoked these people to fight with us. Even though they might die, you didn't show the slightest bit of kindness."
She raised her head, her eyes cold. "You're not even worthy to be compared with me."
Not only the woman but also many people below blushed. Only they themselves knew how much evil they had done for the spot in Kunlun.
The woman was mocked by her and immediately drew her sword angrily and walked towards Ji Yunxi.
Seeing this, Ji Yunxi was not the least bit flustered. She also drew her sword and stepped forward to meet the attack.
The woman's fighting style was similar to that of her two maids, but she was more powerful and used her spiritual energy more smoothly. So for a while, Ji Yunxi was evenly matched with her.
The two fought from the ground to the sky. Ji Yunxi gradually figured out the woman's moves. She curled her lips into a smile and let her sword fall. Only her water sleeves fluttered out.
"You'll experience how Lu Chengming lost."
Du Tianchen couldn't see clearly what was going on in the sky from the ground. He just noticed that Feng Xingzhi's sword was back. He thought Ji Yunxi was about to lose. He was anxious and wanted to go up to help, but was stopped by Feng Xingzhi.
"Don't be impulsive. Stay calm."
Du Tianchen paused, and then his hot temper flared up. "If you can't help, at least don't stop others from helping!"
Feng Xingzhi was helpless. "She hasn't used her full strength yet. You don't need to step in. And if you go, you'll just be a burden to her."
Haven't used her full strength, and I'll be a burden?!
Du Tianchen looked up in shock. He didn't expect that under the fluttering water sleeves, Ji Yunxi's face remained unchanged. It seemed that she was still confident and in control of the situation.
He murmured, "This is impossible. How can she defeat Zhao Qingwan?"
Feng Xingzhi was a bit confused. "Who is Zhao Qingwan?"
"Ah, so you don't know her. The one who is fighting with Miss Ji now is Zhao Qingwan. She's well - known in the Eastern Jin Dynasty."
Feng Xingzhi looked at the face that Zhao Qingwan occasionally showed between the water sleeves. "What about her? Do you know her?"
Du Tianchen grinned. "I'm the Saint Thief. Of course, I have a wide network of contacts. She's well - known in the Eastern Jin Dynasty because of her extremely high spiritual cultivation. There are few people in the Eastern Jin Dynasty who can compare with her."
"What about you?"
Du Tianchen shook his head. "Do you know why I'm just the Saint Thief?"
"Why?"
"Because stealing doesn't require great fighting skills. It requires a good brain."
Hearing this, Feng Xingzhi immediately shook his head. "Impossible. You don't have such a thing as a brain either."
Directly stabbed by Feng Xingzhi's words, Du Tianchen almost spat out a mouthful of blood. "You! Fine. You'd better be ready to step in and help. Zhao Qingwan is really powerful. It's widely recognized in the Eastern Jin Dynasty."
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Xingzhi looked up and scoffed. "I see."
"Your Eastern Jin Dynasty is really not up to much."
