Battle Through the Heavens (Vol.1)

Chapter 129: One-on-One Fight with a Dou Grandmaster

Eyeing the young man who had abruptly calmed down, Mu She pressed his eyebrows together and tightly held the scimitar in his hand as he coldly mocked, "I don't believe that you can grow wings today and fly away!"

Striding forward, Mu She slowly headed towards Xiao Yan. When he was close enough, his feet suddenly stomped on the ground and his body shot forward. The scimitar in his hand slashed furiously at Xiao Yan.

Feeling the force of the sharp wind breaking in front of him, Xiao Yan's face became serious. A Dou Master and a Dou Practitioner were basically two different categories. With his current strength it would be difficult for him to even last ten rounds under Mu She's attack.

Relying on his outstanding dodging ability, Xiao Yan slightly shifted his body and took a few hurried steps back, avoiding Mu She's attack which had been aimed to feel out Xiao Yan's strength. Xiao Yan's feet interwound and strangely appeared at Mu She's left. The Dou Qi in his body flowed as he lifted the Heavy Black Ruler with his right hand and violently smashed at Mu She's head.

The furious force above Mu She did not cause him to panic. He lifted the scimitar in his hand and fiercely slashed it over his head.

"Clang!" The black ruler and the scimitar clashed, sending sparkles flying. A clear metal sound echoed in the abyss.

During the first time that he exchanged blows with a Dou Master, Xiao Yan experienced the extent of the force of the Dou Qi belonging to a Dou Master. The force that was transmitted through the Heavy Black Ruler was enough to propel him to take a couple of steps back.

Compared with the numerous steps Xiao Yan took, Mu She's action appeared much more at ease, having only taken half a step back before his body gradually ceased moving.

"Company Leader, kill him! Take revenge for the Third Company Leader!"

"Kill him!" Seeing that Xiao Yan was at a disadvantage after one blow, the surrounding Wolf Head Mercenaries immediately began crying excitedly.

"What a heavy weapon!" With a shocked gaze, Mu She stared intently at the Heavy Black Ruler in Xiao Yan's hands. He sighed and shook his head as he coldly spoke while staring at Xiao Yan, "If this is all you have, you should just quickly hand the treasure over."

Flicking his somewhat numb hand, Xiao Yan stared at Mu She with deep and cold eyes. He slowly raised the heavy ruler in his hand and let out a long, dragged out breath. Next, he closed his eyes in front of everyone.

Seeing Xiao Yan's strange behavior, Mu She frowned, uncertain about what the former was attempting to do.

The surrounding mercenaries were also stunned by Xiao Yan. A moment later, however, they simply folded their arms. The mocking gaze they had was like watching a mouse falling into the paws of a cat and suffering an inevitable death. In their eyes, there was no way Xiao Yan would be able to escape from the hands of a two star Dou Master regardless of how much he struggled.

As his gaze coldly stared at the closed-eyed Xiao Yan, an uneasiness appeared in Mu She's heart. This was especially so when he suddenly felt the surge in the surrounding energy become more violent. This uneasiness instantly appeared on his face.

Feeling uneasy, Mu She held his scimitar and carefully stepped towards Xiao Yan. He was no confident because of the difference in their ranks.

Seeing Mu She's serious expression, the surrounding mercenaries also began to feel that something was amiss. They exchanged glances and unconsciously tightened the grip on their weapons.

"Trying to act all mysterious, go die!" Once again, Mu She stepped forward and entered his attacking range. A menacing look appeared on his face. Without hesitating, he wielded the scimitar in hand and slashed at Xiao Yan throat.
