Chapter 229: Battle of Swords

It was actually very risky for Han Xu to attack directly in the palace.

From beginning to end, Han Xu actually only made two moves, but when he was in Weiyang Palace, he had already noticed that two powerful divine consciousnesses appeared in the depths of the palace.

Han Xu thought, since there were masters in the palace, why didn't they take action when Han Luoling was assassinated, but when he just appeared, these masters released their divine consciousness, and were full of vigilance and hostility.

It can only explain one problem. The masters in the palace did not want to see Han Luoling alive, but they could not take action personally due to their status, so Tang Liang could sneak into the palace so easily and carry out the assassination.

"These old immortals, damn it." Han Xu cursed in his heart. If it were before, he would have some concerns about these masters, so he had always hidden his strength very well.

But now if those people really want to take action, they may not be able to get any benefits from Han Xu.

Compared to before Han Luoling came to the Royal City, Han Xu has made a lot of progress, especially in the use of domain power. In the past, every time he used it, Han Xu would feel very tired, but now he can achieve the level of mastery and freedom of movement.

Those little consumptions are no longer a big burden for Han Xu.

Feeling a very powerful sword energy chasing behind him, Han Xu raised the corner of his mouth, thinking that it was really an unintentional planting of willows and willows.

Unexpectedly, he did not find Zhuang Cheng in Fengxuan Tower, but found him in the palace.

There was a vague figure in the sword energy chasing Han Xu. As Han Xu expected, he was Zhuang Cheng.

The reason why Han Xu was so sure was that among the sword cultivators of the entire Dawu Dynasty, except for himself, perhaps no one else could have such a powerful sword energy that was as real as substance.

Han Xu flew all the way, and after crossing the palace wall, his speed did not decrease but increased. After a while, he left the Royal City and came to a hillside in the suburbs.

Then, Han Xu stopped.

Zhuang Cheng's figure emerged from the sword energy and stood opposite Han Xu.

Zhuang Cheng said, "Why don't you run away?"

"Do you think I'm running away?"

"You broke the agreement with the chief priest."

"The Tang Sect master sneaked into the palace late at night to assassinate, but you, the palace guardians, did not save him. Didn't you break your responsibility?" Han Xu asked back.

"This matter has nothing to do with you." Zhuang Cheng said, "You seem to know me."

"Of course I know you, the last Sword Master of the Sword Domain, Zhuang Cheng." Han Xu said, "I'm too lazy to talk nonsense with you, hand over the things."

"Why are you asking me for things?" Zhuang Cheng felt threatened in his heart, but there was still no abnormality on his face.

He was the last Sword Master of the Sword Domain, but he was also the biggest traitor in the Sword Domain.

What made Zhuang Cheng strange was that everyone in the world who knew his identity as the Sword Master of the Sword Domain should have been killed, so how could the white-clothed sword demon in front of him know it?

Since he knows everything, will there be others who know it? If there is one outsider who knows about secrets, there will definitely be others who know it.

Zhuang Cheng's identity must not be exposed. He is the most hidden and powerful sword in the hands of the Martial Emperor. If his identity is known to the world, his value will be greatly reduced.

Zhuang Cheng looked at Han Xu and said, "We are both swordsmen. I don't want to kill you, but you know something you shouldn't know, so I have to leave you here."

As he said that, a green long sword appeared in Zhuang Cheng's hand, and there were wisps of air flowing around the blade.

Like Han Xu's soft sword, this green Yangtze River is also a spiritual object.

Han Xu shook his wrist, and the soft sword stretched straight. The auras of the two began to collide directly, and the sound of the divine swords clashing came out of thin air between them.

Just this one time, Zhuang Cheng was full of surprise. He didn't expect that the White-clothed Sword Demon was so young and already had such a deep strength. When he was at this age, he probably hadn't stepped into the extraordinary.

Zhuang Cheng thought: What a terrible talent. If it were a few years later, I might not be able to do anything to him, but now.

A strong wind suddenly blew around, and the sound of the wind was like the roar of a devil.

Zhuang Cheng's figure merged into the wind, and his breath was everywhere, in all directions, making it impossible to distinguish the real position.

"Taste the power of my domain."

Not long after he finished speaking, Han Xu's body suddenly stepped sideways, and then, the residual image he left in the original place was shattered by the sword energy.

"Qinglian Sword Domain, one kill every ten steps!"

Han Xu opened the domain, and now the battle between the two has become a competition of domains.

There are often sounds of breaking air around, and then there will be vibrations somewhere in the sword energy Qinglian.

Zhuang Cheng is worthy of being the previous sword son, and his sword talent is really amazing. If Han Xu can see Zhuang Cheng clearly, he will find that he is moving at high speed with his eyes closed.

Moreover, his movement route was completely random, without any rules at all. Even he himself didn't know where he would point his sword in the next moment.

Within his domain, he was the limit of speed.

Fortunately, Han Xu was not to be outdone. The sword energy green lotus protected his body tightly. No matter which angle Zhuang Cheng attacked from, he could not break through the defense of the sword energy green lotus.

The more Zhuang Cheng fought, the more frightened he became. Han Xu's strength was far beyond his estimation. However, the stronger Han Xu was, the more Zhuang Cheng wanted to kill him.

At this time, Zhuang Cheng heard Han Xu's cold voice: "Zhuang Cheng, hand over the things you took away from the sword domain."

"I don't know what you said."

"You, the traitor of the Sword Domain, I tell you, if you don't want others to know, then don't do it yourself." Han Xu said word by word, "When you left the Sword Domain, you took away the key to open the last level of the Sword Domain. Such a big thing, you wouldn't have forgotten it, right?"

"I didn't expect you to know about this." Zhuang Cheng asked, "Who else knows it besides you?"

"I'm not so bored that I'll tell these things everywhere."

"Very good, as long as I kill you, no one will know."

"You are not qualified to kill me, you traitor." After saying that, the sword energy green lotus slowly rose, and the petals composed of sword energy kept rotating. Han Xu stood at the heart of the lotus, and murderous intent appeared in his eyes.

Zhuang Cheng laughed and said, "Don't overestimate your own abilities."

Then, sword energy shot towards Han Xu, and each of these sword energy had the power to kill ordinary extraordinary people in seconds.

Han Xu slashed with the soft sword in his hand, and the sword energy green lotus exploded directly, turning into countless sword energy and shooting out in all directions, covering the entire nearby space in an instant.

Zhuang Cheng was indeed very fast, but he could not avoid this indiscriminate attack and could only take it head-on.

After a muffled groan, the sword energy shot through Zhuang Cheng's shoulder, and his domain was also broken, and his figure stood in front of Han Xu again.
