Chapter 86: Famous Sword

"Su Qianqian, put down your sword!"

To the onlookers, Zhao Xidong's furious shout seemed somewhat powerless.

After realizing Zhao Xidong wasn't on her side, Su Qianqian completely ignored him. She only whispered, "Sister Rao."

Rao Yinyin understood immediately, knowing Su Qianqian intended to act. She looked towards Zhao Xidong.

"Officer Zhao..."

A captivating, soul-snatching seductive voice echoed directly in Zhao Xidong's mind. Though he knew better, he couldn't help but turn and look at the woman in the red dress.

The moment their gazes met, Zhao Xidong felt a thunderous roar in his head, as endless pink, enchanting colors bloomed like smoke and mist.

His expression instantly became strange, filled with both satisfaction and shyness.

Finally, he couldn't resist lunging forward, clutching at the air, his face dazed as he collapsed onto the ground.

"How grand!"

Zhou Tianshen, watching from behind, was completely stunned. "What kind of sorcery is this?"

The woman in the red dress just glanced, and the person opposite her collapsed?

That was an enforcement officer!

In his impression, the enforcement officers of the Spirit Law Pavilion were at least as strong as "Battle for Supremacy" referee-level experts.

And he himself...

He was merely a top 32 contestant!

The contrast was stark. Now, such a powerful enforcement officer had been taken down with just a glance?

Onlookers, engrossed in the spectacle, clicked their tongues, exclaiming, "As expected of Senior Sister Rao's 'Divine Charm Art'! It completely dominates all men!"

"I heard the illusion is like paradise. I wonder when I'll be qualified to experience it..."

"You?" A person munching on sunflower seeds scoffed, pointing at the bench he was sitting on. "You're only fit to sit on a bench and dream idly!"

"I damn well dare to dream, do you?"

"Heh, dare to dream? What's the use of daring to dream? If you've got guts, why not try the opposite..."

Rao Yinyin suddenly turned her head, and the two men instantly shrunk their necks.

Zhou Tianshen quickly shook his head, signaling that he had nothing to do with it.

In the thick of the battle.

The moment Zhao Xidong fell, Su Qianqian raised her greatsword, dragging it along the ground and creating a trail of sparks as she charged towards Zhang Xinxiong.

"She really dares to attack?" Everyone was stunned.

Everyone had thought she was just putting on a show, but they hadn't expected the young girl to be truly reckless.

Zhang Xinxiong pulled out a long, thick black iron staff from his ring and lightly struck it on the ground, instantly cracking the surface with fine lines.

Since Su Qianqian dared to make the first move, he had nothing to fear.

With enforcement officers watching, as long as he remained on the defensive, he would always be the one to benefit.

As for this young girl's strength...

It was a joke. Although they were both among the thirty-three inner disciples, this girl had only been in the inner courtyard for a year or two!

Could she compare to a seasoned veteran like him, who had been there for five or six years?

Zhang Xinxiong was exceptionally tall, a nine-foot-tall man, extraordinary and imposing.

Su Qianqian probably only reached his waist, but as she approached, the young girl suddenly leaped, soaring about a zhang off the ground.

The moment the snow-white greatsword was raised, a terrifying sword intent, powerful enough to split the sky and suppress the nine underworlds, cleaved down upon him.

Zhang Xinxiong's scalp tingled instantly.

In his eyes, this white greatsword seemed to transform into a towering tombstone, shrouding the sky.

A chilling dread seeped into his soul, and boundless fear surged within him. The tombstone descended inch by inch, inescapable!

"There's something wrong with this sword..."

He was certain that Su Qianqian absolutely could not possess such profound swordsmanship.

The only thing capable of exerting such pressure on him had to be the snow-white greatsword in her hand...

Was this the heirloom of the Su family?

Famous Sword Twenty-One!

Grave City Snow!

"Open!" Zhang Xinxiong's eyes showed apprehension. A streak of crimson light flashed across his black staff, and its size instantly swelled, becoming as thick as a tree trunk.

Since he couldn't evade it, he would meet it head-on. Zhang Xinxiong was known for his strength, and he didn't believe he would lose to this famous sword.

The greatsword cleaved down, and the black iron tree-trunk-like staff thrust upwards to meet it.

With a deafening boom, the air vibrated violently.

The powerful figures standing in the center of the battle remained unharmed, but the spectators were instantly flung into the air.

Zhou Tianshen was utterly astonished. As he flew through the air, his gaze never left the two confronting figures below.

The young girl in white, wielding the sword, seemed so delicate, yet Zhang Xinxiong, straining to hold his ground, had a distorted, ferocious expression.

"Ah!" Su Qianqian gritted her teeth, pressing the greatsword down further.

*Bang!*

The ground exploded with a loud bang, cracking open a deep pit, but Zhang Xinxiong...

...still stood within it!

"You're still too green to compare strength with me!"

Zhang Xinxiong sneered. Just as he was about to move, Su Qianqian, from above, gave him no chance, a sharp cry erupting near his ear.

"Tombstone Weight!"

A dark shadow descended from the sky, forcefully merging into the white greatsword.

In Zhang Xinxiong's eyes, however, it was another identical tombstone pressing down!

Who could possibly withstand this?

He didn't even have time to react before the oppressive force of the two tombstones dislocated both his arms.

*Boom!*

Those in the battle zone scattered, and the large pit in the ground cracked open even wider.

Zhou Tianshen had just landed when a surge of powerful energy swept over him again, but this time, he was prepared and naturally wasn't thrown into the air.

"So strong!"

His fighting spirit soared, and he felt his blood boiling. He backhanded to grasp the golden tyrant-blade on his back, feeling it vibrate with excitement, just like him.

This was truly the path he sought!

With one slash, not a bone would remain.

Wait, something's wrong?

Where's Zhang Xinxiong?

How did he disappear?

He couldn't really have been obliterated, could he?

*Clang!*

Two broken pieces of an iron staff fell from the sky, landing in the deep pit, making an onlooker swallow even his melon rind.

"Holy crap, 'Black Shark' is broken?"

"That's a Grade Six spirit artifact, Grandmaster level, and this..."

"Just broke like that?"

Zhou Tianshen was dumbfounded. This was a Grade Six spirit artifact?

His golden tyrant-blade was only Grade Nine...

It wasn't even considered Innate-grade...

Su Qianqian pursed her lips in satisfaction, then re-sheathed the greatsword on her back.

"Breaking your staff serves as a warning."

She tilted her head and looked at Lan Xinzi behind her, stating seriously, "If you ever dare trouble little beast brother again, someone might die, you know."

*Gulp!* Everyone collectively swallowed.

Even when speaking seriously, the young girl looked incredibly cute, completely devoid of any menacing aura.

But considering the sword strike just moments before...

Lan Xinzi was inexplicably horrified. Zhang Xinxiong had actually been struck and embedded into the ground? How was that possible?

This Su Qianqian is simply too strong!

If it were him, even without Zhang Xinxiong's bloodline power activated, he would struggle to withstand even one punch, let alone when "Black Shark" was used...

Yet, "Black Shark" broke...

Was this really a young girl who had only entered the inner courtyard a year or two ago?

"Su... Qian...qian!"

From beneath the ground, a suppressed voice filled with endless rage echoed. Zhang Xinxiong's figure shot out, launching a punch towards Su Qianqian, who was slowly walking away.

"Watch out!" Zhou Tianshen's eyes widened, and he couldn't help but shout a warning.

Someone beside him quickly slapped the remaining half of a melon rind over his mouth, trying to muffle his voice.

"Are you trying to get yourself killed? Just watch the show, don't yell! Someone's going to get hurt!"
