Chapter 901: Chapter 895 Sword Emperor

The narrow hospital corridor, lit by incandescent lights, was eerily quiet, giving one a spine-chilling feeling, with only the sound of one’s own footsteps echoing with each step.

”Ba-da!” ”Ba-da!”

Suddenly, a set of footsteps echoed down the hallway outside the ward, piercing the silence of the corridor.

A man dressed in black, holding a treasured sword, slowly appeared in the corridor. Under the lights, his features could be clearly seen: sword-like brows reaching skywards, eyes cold as frost, exuding a formidable Sword Intent all over his body. Unlike Sima Lingyun’s Sword Intent, his was filled with a deathly aura, as if it was born solely for death.

This man was the Sword Emperor from the Twelve Terrifying, sent by the Heavenly God to assassinate Lu Tianxing. Just as Lu Tianxing had anticipated, the Heavenly God wouldn’t let such a perfect opportunity slip by, even if Lu Tianxing had laid an ambush. The Heavenly God would never abandon this chance because it was the best one to kill Lu Tianxing.

The Sword Emperor wore a bloodthirsty smile as he stepped towards the ward where Lu Tianxing was. Arriving at the ward’s doorway, he opened the door without any hesitation and entered. To him, Lu Tianxing was already a dead man. In his prime, Lu Tianxing might’ve been his match, but heavily injured by the Crying Face Envoy, Lu Tianxing was now weak and vulnerable.

”Creak!”

With a slight sound, the ward door opened, and the Sword Emperor walked in, closing the door behind him.

But in the next moment, the Sword Emperor’s pupils suddenly contracted, and his muscles immediately tensed up, because he saw a figure sitting on the bed, staring at him with bright eyes.

”You’re here. I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Judging by your aura, if I’m not mistaken, you’re also one of the Twelve Terrifying, right? Let me guess, the Twelve Terrifying corresponds to twelve individuals, each mastering a weapon or a special ability. You hold a treasured sword, so you’re the Sword Emperor of the Twelve Terrifying, am I correct?” As the Sword Emperor’s face was filled with vigilance, the room’s lights suddenly turned on. Lu Tianxing sat cross-legged on the bed, looking at the Sword Emperor in front of him and spoke slowly.

Upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s nonchalant voice, the Sword Emperor’s pupils shrank dramatically, turning into dangerously sharp needles. His eyes scanned around warily, his muscles tensed.

”So what if I’m the Sword Emperor? How did you know I would come?”

”Of course.”

Lu Tianxing smiled as if he hadn’t seen the wariness in the Sword Emperor’s eyes and said, ”The Heavenly God knows very well he can’t do anything to me, especially in my prime. He knows it would be difficult to kill me, so he wouldn’t let me grow stronger. Last night, I was severely injured and not fit for combat, so he wouldn’t waste this opportunity, even if there’s an ambush around. He would send someone to kill me, as it’s the best chance to remove me. Once my injuries heal, it will be even harder for the Heavenly God to kill me.”

”But I’m curious why the Heavenly God values me so much to send the Sword Emperor from the Twelve Terrifying. Isn’t he afraid that all twelve of the Twelve Terrifying he trained will die at my hands?”

”Is that so? Judge, are you sure you can kill me?”

After a brief moment of panic, the Sword Emperor regained his composure quickly, looking at Lu Tianxing and said, ”I admit you’re very strong; otherwise, the Gun Emperor and the Beast Emperor wouldn’t have died by your hand. But don’t forget, you’re injured now. Your energy seems unstable, and you’re heavily wounded, right? How much of your strength can you exert? So, you won’t escape death today.”

Hearing the Sword Emperor’s words, Lu Tianxing nodded indifferently and said, ”You’re right; I am indeed injured and not suitable for battle. But since I could predict you would come, do you think I wouldn’t be prepared?”

Lu Tianxing’s voice was steady, but when it reached the Sword Emperor’s ears, it made him shudder involuntarily. Without any more hesitation, he struck immediately.

Clang!

The treasured sword was drawn without a hint of hesitation. The Sword Emperor’s sword had no fancy moves, thrusting straight forward. But just this thrust made Lu Tianxing feel an overwhelming killing intent engulf him, as if he was locked in place. Even though he saw the longsword aiming for him, he couldn’t dodge it at all, forced to watch it head towards his throat.

The Sword Emperor’s eyes flickered with brutal intent. He was called the Sword Emperor not because of his profound understanding of swordsmanship but because his was a Death Sword Style, always pursuing speed. When swordsmanship reaches the ultimate speed, that’s the strongest attack.

Watching the Sword Emperor’s attack, as fast as a meteor falling, Lu Tianxing’s gaze didn’t flicker, and he didn’t dodge in the slightest, quietly watching the Sword Emperor.

This scene made the Sword Emperor’s heart suddenly thump, and a strong premonition of danger surged in his mind, prompting him to further accelerate his sword technique.

And at this moment, a cold voice echoed through the room.

”Four Seasons Sword Technique, Autumn Frost Descends.”

In that instant, the entire ward seemed to transform into the depths of winter, with autumn frost unexpectedly falling from the ceiling of the room.

This was the autumn swordsmanship from the Four Seasons Sword Technique. The Four Seasons Sword Technique, based on spring, summer, autumn, and winter, derived sword techniques reflecting different seasonal intents. In spring, it’s like rain; in summer, like thunder; in autumn, withering; and in winter, icy. Each sword technique could change infinitely, merging with the true essence of nature, reaching terrifying heights.

”So this is the Four Seasons Sword Technique? Remarkable indeed.”

Lu Tianxing, sitting on the bed, admired inwardly. The Four Seasons Sword Technique, as performed by Sima Lingyun, instantly gave him a sense of overturning the seasons. The falling autumn frost wasn’t real frost but boundless Sword Intent contained within, capable of shredding a person to pieces instantly.

”Sima Lingyun, damn.”

The Sword Emperor’s face changed dramatically in that moment, and the sword aimed at Lu Tianxing was swiftly retracted, transforming into dazzling Sword Light to protect his surroundings. All the falling autumn frost was shattered by the Sword Light.

”In martial arts under heaven, speed is invincible. Your swordsmanship is indeed extraordinary, but you’ve misunderstood. Indeed, martial arts under heaven are invincible by speed alone. However, when the disparity in strength is too great, your swordsmanship is of no use.”

Sima Lingyun’s figure moved gracefully, entering through the window, looking at the Sword Emperor expressionlessly. Behind him, a blazing sun-like Sword Glow suddenly erupted, illuminating the entire ward.
