Eps. 261 — Clan Wuming III
The remaining four Elders instantly took some distance before Jian Chen's attack could injure him, the four of them now began to realize Jian Chen was a figure that even the Empty Realm swordsman could not hurt.
"His strength is on par with that of Chairman Sha, we won't be able to fight him despite attacking together..." Said one of the Elders who was more experienced in fighting.
"No way! Who can match Chairman Sha are only a few people we know. If so, then isn't he among the Empire's ten heroes!"
The elder did not answer any further, to be honest he actually assumed that Jian Chen was stronger than even the Chief of his clan.
The four Elders realized Jian Chen had yet to even unleash all of his strength.
This was evidenced that even though Jian Chen was extremely strong he did not kill his enemies, had Jian Chen been serious against those Elders, they were confident that he could be killed briefly when he first attacked.
The Wuming clan warriors in the surroundings broke out in cold sweat after hearing the discussions of the Elders let alone about Jian Chen's strength.
None of them expected that today there was someone who attacked his clan alone.
As the remaining four Elders discussed, Jian Chen's attention was turned to the others.
"Want to judge my strength while fighting others, it's not a bad strategy..." Jian Chen smiled broadly by looking up at the sky.
The Wuming clan warriors turned their heads in the same direction but found nothing, only when there was a sound did they realize that someone had been hovering around them since.
"You can see my illusion?!" The person displays his or her physique so that it can be seen by others.
"I can't see it, I just feel your presence there..." Jian Chen shrugged his shoulders.
That person used an illusion to make his body look transparent so that it was invisible to others but still his existence could be detected by Jian Chen.
When that person appeared, the Wuming clan swordsmen as well as the four previous Elders instantly paid their respects to him.
Jian Chen frowned before finally understanding something, it was no mistake that the person in front of him was the Wuming Clan Chief Wuming Sha.
Wuming Sha then landed before Jian Chen with a gaze filled with murderous lust, he never expected his clan to be attacked like this.
"Do you think the Wuming clan is a clan that can be underestimated just like that, daring to mess it up alone..." Wuming Sha said coldly.
Jian Chen shook his head slowly. "I came here for your actions a few weeks ago... You chase a girl with a high-ranking heirloom and hunt her down without caring that they're still Academy students."
Wuming Sha was shocked when Jian Chen learned of his plan but he refused to tell it. "What do you mean, you're making up?"
"I think you've forgotten, what if you saw this sword..." Jian Chen took out Ziyun's Ice God Sword in his spatial ring. "Do you know him?"
Wuming Sha's breath was stifled, "Why is the sword in your hand?"
"It doesn't matter in whose hands this sword is in, which must be because your actions make me very angry and want to destroy this clan..." Jian Chen's expression had now turned cold.
Wuming Sha clenched his hands hard, he knew there was a great risk of taking a high level heirloom from others but did not expect the risk to mess with his own clan.
After seeing Jian Chen's strength from earlier, he was sure Jian Chen was a troublesome opponent for him.
Wuming Sha flashed the two twin swords in both hands, not intending to speak to Jian Chen any further.
The remaining four Elders immediately took some distance as well as the other Wuming clan warriors.
"I'll make you sorry for attacking my clan..." Wuming Sha poured a huge amount of deep energy into his two swords, instantly the two heirlooms shone brightly.
Jian Chen thought Wuming Sha would move towards him but what the Clan Leader did was beyond Jian Chen's expectations.
The two Swords of Wuming Sha were then banged against each other which created deafening sound waves.
Jian Chen retreated two steps due to the loud noise, his vision becoming a little blurry by a few seconds.
Jian Chen exerted a deep force on both of his ears to hold back the next sound wave, as he glanced back at Wuming Sha, Jian Chen saw that the body of the Clan Leader had already split into ten bodies.
"So so... The previous impact sound for my diversion before you used an illusion..." Jian Chen smiled widely.
Seeing Jian Chen still look calm, Wuming Sha again banged his sword a few times. Wuming Sha clucked resentfully seeing that his technique no longer had any effect on Jian Chen.
Wuming Sha did not continue his sound attack but instead began to narrow his distance with Jian Chen.
Ten reflections of him also came along and surrounded Jian Chen from various directions.
Jian Chen removed his ice sword from its scabbard, there should be no one who could pull out that heirloom sword unless its absolute owner but Jian Chen was an exception as it had been allowed by Ziyun.
Jian Chen and Wuming Sha exchanged a few moves, Illusion attacks from him usually overwhelmed others but in front of Jian Chen's sword techniques, his illusory skills felt useless.
Wuming Sha, who thought Jian Chen was an empty-handed swordsman could only curse when it turned out that Jian Chen's ability in sword was no less high.
Wuming Sha could feel every time Jian Chen's blue sword clashed, the palms holding the two swords were slowly enveloped in ice.
His notoriously agile two-sword technique had now started to slow down as a result of the ice.
Jian Chen then destroyed Wuming Sha's illusory body one by one until it left him.
Jian Chen then increased the tempo of his sword movements so much faster that Wuming Sha changed in the defensive position even as his entire body began to be filled with wounds.
Scratches after scratches continued, blood began to pour out from the wounds Jian Chen had inflicted.
Realizing that the Chief of his clan would not win, all the Wuming clan warriors as well as his Elders did not let that happen.
They were all compact and intended to risk their lives in order to save the clan head.
Jian Chen glanced at the warriors who were about to charge at him with all their might but continued to attack Wuming Sha. Jian Chen then swung his sword extremely powerfully making Wuming Sha pushed for several meters.
Jian Chen did not attack Wuming Sha further, he stuck his sword into the ground using an enormous amount of deep power.
"Elemental Ice — Eternal Ice Hell!"
Within a single blink, Jian Chen overhauled one-tenth of the Wuming clan's territory into ice plains including the surrounding buildings that were frozen solid.
The swordsmen who were about to approach Jian Chen were now fixed on the spot, their legs unable to move due to the ice attached to his feet.
