Ms. Diviner: The Prodigal Daughter's Return

Chapter 1264: Chapter 1264: Surrounded by Beauties

”So that’s how it is. I understand, I understand. The master is certainly lucky with women.” Elmhead finally understood, with a mischievous smile.

”Alright, let’s kill them first and report to the master. The Han Family remnants have been hiding for so many years. Finally, we found them. This is a great achievement.” Su Deacon said with a smile.

”Yes.” The two young men drew their longswords simultaneously.

Although Tang Bufan’s grandmother was in Su Deacon’s hands, Tang Bufan wasn’t weak, so they dared not be careless.

”Wait, don’t rush to kill the little girl first.” Su Deacon suddenly interrupted.

”What?” The two subordinates looked at him in confusion.

”I see some suspicious points on her too. I’ll personally interrogate her to see if there are other Han Family remnants.” Su Deacon examined Han Yunyun from head to toe with ill intent.

”A lustful pig, hasn’t even finished what’s in the bowl, already eyeing what’s in the pot. He won’t let even a little girl escape.” The two secretly despised him but dared not say anything.

”Also, don’t spread this around. You’ll have more good things like this in the future.” Su Deacon thought for a moment and reminded them.

”Yes, master.” The two revealed expressions of delight.

Unaware, a pair of eyes, filled with contempt, secretly flashed with intent to kill.

”Strike!” Su Deacon waved his hand, making a slashing gesture.

As soon as he spoke, a cold light appeared out of thin air, like lightning slicing through the air.

Su Deacon’s pupils shrank dramatically. The sword light was not aimed at Tang Bufan and the others but instead slashed right towards his chest!

Could it be that the two subordinates betrayed the Holy Court! In the blink of an eye, Su Deacon’s heart chilled with such a thought.

But he immediately dismissed his guess because the two subordinates were behind him, and this sword came from the front. Yet, there was clearly no one in front.

He suddenly saw Han Yan’s pure and stunning face, though now it bore no trace of a smile, only cold intent to kill.

Though long planning to kill to silence witnesses, thinking of the identity of the Holy Court Deacon, Mu Hanyan felt a shred of reluctance. Facing someone deserving death, she wouldn’t show mercy but wouldn’t kill indiscriminately.

The animosity between the Holy Court and the temple had lasted a million years; who was right, who was wrong, she couldn’t possibly judge. Su Deacon and the others were fulfilling their duties.

But, hearing Su Deacon’s last words, Mu Hanyan’s last trace of sympathy disappeared without a trace. Such shameless scum deserves death!

Being a Fifth Rank Sword Master, Su Deacon quickly reacted, took a step back, twisted his waist, and drew his sword - the entire move was seamless, showcasing the style of a master.

”Star Fall, Eight Desolates.” Mu Hanyan’s cold voice whispered in his ear.

The dazzling sword light seemed to split the heavens and earth, the whole world turned icy cold.

The two sword lights crossed, Su Deacon’s body stiffened, seemingly petrified, unable to move.

”Deacon!” Only then did the two subordinates react, exclaiming in unison.

”Crack!” A light sound, the longsword in his hand snapped in two, a mist of blood sprayed from his heart meridian.

”Didn’t you leave already, why come back?” Su Deacon murmured, then fell backwards, his gray eyes devoid of life.

Until death, he couldn’t figure out how Mu Hanyan, whom he’d seen exit the barrier and leave the courtyard, appeared silently before him and dealt that fatal blow.

Mu Hanyan certainly didn’t care to explain and let him die in ignorance; after her successful strike, she immediately attacked the two subordinates.

Su Deacon deserved death, and these two were no better.

”Run!” The two finally came to their senses, flying away to escape.

Indeed, they were Holy Court experts; although their strength was one rank lower than Mu Hanyan’s, their speed was not slow.

Actually, they had the ability to fight, but seeing Su Deacon perish under Mu Hanyan’s sword, they were scared witless, not daring to engage.

”Star Fall, Eight Desolates!” Mu Hanyan unleashed another sword stroke.

With her current strength and understanding of Star Falling in Eight Desolates, performing it consumed a lot of Qi; just two or three strokes would deplete her Qi completely, but she couldn’t worry about this now.

Despite their close skill level, the previous sneak attack with Shadow Shifting was rather lucky; facing the remaining two, conserving strength would be self-destructive.

Feeling the astonishing sword power behind them, the two neither dodged nor defended, simultaneously forming several hand gestures.

”Boom!” Two silver light shields appeared behind them, the sword light slammed against them, bursting into dazzling radiance.

The shields shattered simultaneously, the two spat blood, staggered a few steps, and continued fleeing.

Magic Artifact! Mu Hanyan’s heart sank, surprised they carried defensive artifacts.

Though these artifacts couldn’t compare with Cangxuan Cloud Silk or the Glazed Glass Holy Robe, if faced head-on, they couldn’t withstand Mu Hanyan’s Star Falling in Eight Desolates, but fleeing was different; Mu Hanyan couldn’t kill them in one blow.

If they escaped, they’d certainly bring endless trouble to the Mu Family, possibly implicating Ye Lanfeng. Mu Hanyan chased without hesitation.

However, their strength wasn’t far below hers; now fully focused on escape, they spared no effort, leaving Mu Hanyan unable to catch up.

Seeing them about to escape, suddenly Tang Bufan’s tall figure blocked their way, gripping his sword, gazing coldly at them.

”Get lost!” They yelled angrily, simultaneously striking with their swords.

”Be careful!” Mu Hanyan exclaimed.

Although Tang Bufan’s strength had greatly improved recently, compared to them, he was still outmatched; even though both were heavily injured, he couldn’t contend with them.

Tang Bufan showed no hesitation, roaring fiercely, wielding two swords simultaneously.

”Courting death!” The youth sneered.

Though terrified of Mu Hanyan, they showed no regard for Tang Bufan, a mere third-tier sword master, especially against two.

Two longswords, one left, one right, slashed towards Tang Bufan, their fierce killing intent making even Mu Hanyan’s heart shiver.

”Is this Tang Bufan about to do something foolish again?” Mu Hanyan certainly understood why Tang Bufan intervened - he knew letting them escape would bring endless trouble.

But understanding didn’t change the fact when strength gaps were evident. Charging forward like this was suicidal.
