Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 52 — Jiang Qisha's
"Is there no other way I can get away with this?" Zhou Yuan bit his lips, he felt that this second life of his would soon be over.
At the moment Zhou Yuan was being surrounded by the dagger Xian Li released, the girl turned out to have the ability to control her dozens of daggers like a part of her body.
The dozens of daggers immediately attacked Zhou Yuan like an angry bee, Zhou Yuan fended off some daggers that were about to stab him while the rest he dodged.
Even so, Zhou Yuan's body slowly began to be filled with scratches from the wound, his clothes he used were also torn as a result of being scratched by the dagger.
Zhou Yuan racked his brain in order to get out of this situation, the fact that when he was in a desperate position, one would find it difficult to think clearly.
The sword he used had already suffered a minor damage while holding the daggers, Zhou Yuan was trying to destroy his dagger but the weapon was too hard to split.
The daggers that Xian Li had released were not ordinary weapons but almost all were third-rate heirlooms. Zhou Yuan had never expected that there would be someone who had as many heirlooms in his hands as Xian Li.
"How could he get this much heirloom?!" Zhou Yuan clenched his teeth, the heirloom was extremely sturdy, crushing it required even more effort.
In Zhou Yuan's first life, heirlooms were very difficult to find in the martial world because of their manufacture and rare materials, considering a crystal realm swordsman alone had many heirlooms like this showed there were many changes after a hundred years had passed.
The best thing in the situation right now was that Xian Li's attack did not aim to kill him, the girl seemed to want to incapacitate Zhou Yuan and capture him alive.
Even so, Xian Li's attack remained dangerous, because several times there was a dagger that wanted to stick in his hand or thigh.
Zhou Yuan grasped his sword tighter, there was no other way. Zhou Yuan poured a huge amount of deep power into his sword before swinging it down strongly.
With the swing, Zhou Yuan managed to destroy one of Xian Li's dagger heirlooms, before the girl reacted to Zhou Yuan slashing the other's dagger quickly.
Xian Li almost vomited blood seeing her flagship weapon being smashed just like that, her heart slashed as Zhou Yuan slashed through her wounds one by one.
"You-you!" Xian Li's eyes reddened, her breath hunting and looking at Zhou Yuan full of hatred.
Xian Li immediately pulled out all the daggers near Zhou Yuan before they were all destroyed by the young man. Xian Li did not want to lose all her remains, it cost a fortune to make one.
On the other hand Zhou Yuan adjusted his breathing after the daggers had gone from him. His inner strength stayed a little longer and Zhou Yuan used it to stop the injuries all over his body.
The one thing Zhou Yuan was grateful for was that the dagger was not smeared with poison, it would be very troublesome for him to avoid the dagger if it was accompanied by ice snake poison.
Xian Li looked at Zhou Yuan full of anger, no more sweet smiles on his face after the young man destroyed his heirlooms. Xian Li did not hold back anymore, she wanted to kill Zhou Yuan right now.
The girl then took out three other daggers, the size of which was much larger than before as well as the sharpness.
Without waiting any longer, Xian Li released the three daggers into the air which immediately flew towards Zhou Yuan at high speed.
Zhou Yuan did not have time to dodge such fast-moving daggers, he parried with his sword but to his surprise his weapon was immediately seriously damaged.
Zhou Yuan held his breath when he realized the three daggers were at least at first-class heirloom quality. Not having time to think, Zhou Yuan held back every stab of Xian Li's dagger with the sword.
In the five times the two weapons clashed, Zhou Yuan's sword broke in two. On the same side Zhou Yuan instantly fell to his knees after the wrong dagger scratched his calf deeply.
Zhou Yuan clenched his hands hard, he was already unable to move anymore or fend off with his sword, Zhou Yuan closed his eyes as one of the daggers flew towards him.
"Yuan'er, you turned out to be more shocking than I thought. Sorry if I'm a little late..."
Zhou Yuan opened his eyes upon hearing the voice, to him it was familiar to him and when Zhou Yuan saw his figure, Zhou Yuan's eyes widened in shock.
"Grandfather Jiang..."
Zhou Yuan had never forgotten about the grandfather, a middle-aged man who had an aura of charisma that his grandson had helped him before.
What made Zhou Yuan surprised was that the man called Grandfather Jiang was now holding Xian Li's dagger easily with both fingers.
"Grandfather Jiang-..."
"We postpone the conversation... " Grandfather Jiang shook his head slowly, "For now I have to take care of the young-faced granny."
"What did you say!"
Xian Li who heard that from afar immediately ignited emotions, she tried to move the dagger in Grandpa Jiang's hand but her efforts were unsuccessful, xian Li's emotions instantly faded realizing the grandfather in front of her was a high-level swordsman as well.
"You, who are you?!" Xian Li was conscious, holding her navel with just a fingertip showed that the grandfather had high abilities.
Grandfather Jiang smiled cynically, "What knowing my name is important, that you guys will definitely end up here..."
"Oh, I want to see if you can smile like that after seeing my strength.."
Xian Li re-deployed her dozens of daggers this time she immediately fought seriously.
Grandfather Jiang did not panic as the dozens of heirlooms flew towards him, instead he simply swung his hands in the air and created a wave of wind.
The wind wave did not bring Xian Li's dagger to a halt but only slowed down
"Oh not bad..." Grandfather Jiang did not seem surprised and said so.
Grandfather Jiang opened his palm before flowing his profound energy and turning it into energy. Slowly a blue flame appeared, Grandpa Jiang then formed a sword from the blue flame.
When the dagger was already nearby, Grandfather Jiang then slashed Xian Li's daggers with ease, in one simple swing, the three daggers shattered into melts.
Xian Li was surprised to see the blue flames, as were the other members of the immortal snow including Zhou Yuan one of them.
The blue flames that Grandfather Jiang released were not foreign to the martial world, only one Family had such abilities he was the Jiang Imperial Family.
Zhou Yuan coughed, he had expected Grandfather Jiang's status to be unusual but did not expect him to be from the Imperial Family.
"Seeing from his age as well as his abilities, there was only one person who possessed this level of strength, was he His Highness the Moon Emperor, Jiang Qisha?"Zhou Yuan calmed his breath, this fact made him completely shocked.
