Super Combat Soldier

Chapter 2238: Chapter 2236: The Bound Cheng Ying Sword

Princess Zi Xuan killed the Third Son of the Sword Sect, erasing him entirely in spirit and form, in front of numerous martial artists from the Northern State Territory, and in front of the Sword Sect’s eldest son and the Two Sons of the Sword Sect. Such iron-blooded methods of slaughter were surprising and unexpected. Could it be that Princess Zi Xuan was truly fighting desperately, regardless of any consequences?

”Demoness, return my third brother’s life!” The Sword Sect’s eldest son was the first to angrily raise his sword and charge forward.

”I’ll erase your spirit and form, extinguish your Flying Flower Zen Temple completely!” The Sword Sect’s Two Sons shouted and charged in as well!

Clang!

Clang!

Clang!

Princess Zi Xuan was neither afraid nor did she retreat. Instead, she held the Cheng Ying Sword and calmly battled against the Sword Sect’s eldest son and the Two Sons of the Sword Sect. At this moment, Princess Zi Xuan seemed to have transformed, no longer restricted or burdened by heavy thoughts. Now, her heart was focused solely on a great battle, fighting with all her might to protect her Flying Flower Zen Temple. Perhaps even Princess Zi Xuan herself hadn’t realized that she was experiencing an unprecedented surge of potential. Otherwise, it would have been impossible for her to battle against the Sword Sect’s eldest son and the Two Sons of the Sword Sect alone since they were stronger than the Third Son of the Sword Sect. Yet now, Princess Zi Xuan was fighting them both, neither gaining the upper hand nor falling behind, demonstrating combat capabilities that exceeded her past strength!

”What’s happening? Why do I suddenly feel like Princess Zi Xuan’s combat strength has increased significantly?”

”Yes, her fighting power seems to have just erupted suddenly!”

”Is it because she suddenly acquired the Cheng Ying Sword?”

”No, the Cheng Ying Sword is indeed one of the ten ancient Divine Swords, incredibly powerful. However, merely possessing a Divine Sword like the Cheng Ying Sword without possessing sufficient strength would make it impossible to harness such formidable combat capabilities. Princess Zi Xuan’s combat strength is not weak; her fighting power might be unfathomable...”

”Could it be that Princess Zi Xuan’s battle prowess hasn’t been fully unleashed yet?”

Swipe!

Swipe!

Two powerful Sword Qi sliced through the air as if splitting the sky, targeting Princess Zi Xuan, who remained unafraid, and calmly wielded the Cheng Ying Sword, slashing out a Sword Qi. When the Sword Qi from the Cheng Ying Sword collided with the Sword Qi descending from the Sword Sect’s eldest son and the Two Sons of the Sword Sect, all three Sword Qi dissipated into the air, tearing apart the surrounding atmosphere and clouds! ℴ

Princess Zi Xuan coldly regarded the Sword Sect’s eldest son and the Two Sons of the Sword Sect without speaking. At that moment, she held only a singular belief in her heart: no matter who approached, she would fight until she could no longer, unless she was entirely erased in spirit and form; otherwise, she would not retreat. That was her responsibility as the Sect Leader of the Flying Flower Zen Temple!

”Hmph, I didn’t expect you to enhance your battle power under such circumstances and engage us, the two brothers, in combat!” the Sword Sect’s eldest son snorted coldly.

”Fighting you isn’t surprising. You’ve invaded my Flying Flower Zen Temple and intend to annihilate us. Naturally, I will give it my all!” Princess Zi Xuan said indifferently.

”With your power alone, can you withstand us two brothers? What a joke!” said the Two Sons of the Sword Sect disdainfully.

”Your third brother said something similar just now, but unfortunately, he’s now erased in spirit and form. Perhaps the next ones to die under this Cheng Ying Sword will be one of you, or perhaps both of you together!” Princess Zi Xuan retorted.

Upon hearing Princess Zi Xuan’s words, the Sword Sect’s eldest son and the Two Sons of the Sword Sect glanced at each other, their eyes filled with killing intent, yet they angrily laughed instead. They both raised their own longswords, not to slash at Princess Zi Xuan, but to clash their swords together!

”What are the Sword Sect’s eldest son and the Two Sons of the Sword Sect up to?”

”Why are they not launching a strike at Princess Zi Xuan, and are instead hitting each other?”

”It must be some sort of swordsmanship divine skill; I think we’ll find out soon!”

”Yes, it’s long been rumored that the Sword Sect’s swordsmanship divine skills are different from many other swordsmanship abilities in the Martial Arts World. This has always been a point of curiosity for many. Perhaps today we can witness it!”

Buzz!

Amidst the surrounding martial artists’ discussions, the longswords of Sword Sect’s elder son and Two Sons clashed. In that instant, from the longswords they wielded, a burst of sword qi was unleashed. This sword qi didn’t seem particularly powerful, just akin to a casual wave by a martial artist, slashing towards Princess Zi Xuan.

Even Princess Zi Xuan couldn’t detect any issues with this sword qi, nor did she know its true power. She wielded her Cheng Ying Sword to slash out sword qi in response. But just as she began wielding it, the sword qi from her Cheng Ying Sword hadn’t even been fully unleashed, when she felt a collision of sword qi against it, rendering it unable to release its energy. This startled Princess Zi Xuan, making her frown in confusion as she couldn’t figure out what was happening!

Swish!

Slowly, as the combined sword qi from the elder son and Two Sons collided with the Cheng Ying Sword in Princess Zi Xuan’s hand, it not only stopped her from unleashing her sword qi, but also caused runes to gradually appear on the Cheng Ying Sword. These runes, like flowing water, attached themselves to the sword, gradually confining its power. This left Princess Zi Xuan astonished!

”Hmph, you are far from mastering this Divine Sword, unable to wield its true power!” Sword Sect’s elder son scoffed with disdain.

”Our understanding of swordsmanship divine skills in the Sword Sect is fundamentally different. The three of us brothers have a mastery of these skills unlike yours. We can restrain anyone’s swordsmanship divine skills!” Sword Sect’s Two Sons coldly remarked, eyeing Princess Zi Xuan.

Princess Zi Xuan furrowed her brows, forcefully swinging her Cheng Ying Sword. Yet, no matter how she waved it, she couldn’t release any sword qi. More troubling was that the Cheng Ying Sword felt progressively heavier, almost impossible to swing, let alone release sword qi!

It seemed that the sword qi emitted from the elder son and Two Sons’ clash not only had immense Power of Slaughter but also stronger binding power. This binding force caused Princess Zi Xuan’s Cheng Ying Sword to become heavier and increasingly unresponsive!

Whoosh!

Sword Sect’s Two Sons swiftly charged towards Princess Zi Xuan with his longsword. The elder son stood behind, not rushing forward, viewing it unnecessary. In their eyes, with Princess Zi Xuan’s Cheng Ying Sword bound, she couldn’t exert the strong combat power she once had. In such a situation, killing Princess Zi Xuan should be a mere formality for the Two Sons!

Slash!

A sword qi slashed towards Princess Zi Xuan. Quick as lightning, she swiftly dodged. Despite Cheng Ying Sword feeling as heavy as a thousand pounds, making it difficult to wield, she still forcibly carried it. She understood that without the Cheng Ying Sword at her side, she had no chance against the elder son and Two Sons!

Spurt!

Princess Zi Xuan’s left arm was grazed by a sword qi from the Two Sons, causing blood to splatter. As Princess Zi Xuan turned around, the Two Sons appeared behind her, within five meters, pointing a longsword at her nose, sneering, ”There’s no need to run. Just perish here, body and soul!”

”Hmm...” Princess Zi Xuan clutched the Cheng Ying Sword with both hands. Still, it was so heavy she couldn’t lift it. Despite her efforts, the sword remained immobile, as if rooted to the ground!

”Stop wasting your effort. My brother and I have planted binding runes on the Cheng Ying Sword. These runes can confine some sword qi power. Even as one of the ten Ancient Divine Swords, it is no exception. If you abandon this sword, you might live a little longer!” Sword Sect’s Two Sons dismissively said to Princess Zi Xuan.

”I’ll only abandon this sword over my dead body!” Princess Zi Xuan declared with unwavering determination.

”Then die!” Sword Sect’s Two Sons smirked coldly.

Slash!

Viciously, Two Sons waved his longsword, striking towards Princess Zi Xuan’s head. At this moment, Princess Zi Xuan still held onto the Cheng Ying Sword tightly. She closed her eyes, as if bracing for the worst. She resolved to unleash the power of her Divine Sword with all her might. If successful, she would live; if not, Sword Sect’s Two Sons would cut her down. This gamble demonstrated Princess Zi Xuan’s courage and unyielding spirit!

At this time, Ye Tianchen opened his eyes, awakening from his mystical healing trance. He was ready to intervene. Princess Zi Xuan was indeed in grave danger; this gamble had slim odds, as she couldn’t even lift Cheng Ying Sword. Without any defense against the Two Sons, how could she evade this fatal blow?
