Capítulo 1490: Chapter 1461: Blade Glow Storm

Li Chen unleashed this strike with all his might, gathering his formidable foundation into a domineering blade light.

Amidst the blood-red hue were the intermingled shades of black and white, the terrifying aura of rending descended upon the group standing before him.

“This… who the hell is this guy?” Seeing the terrifying unparalleled blade light, even the leading Heaven Following Realm powerhouse felt a shock in his heart, instinctively raising his defenses.

The others immediately chose to defend themselves, not because they didn’t want to take the offensive.

But under Li Chen’s overpowering blade light, they couldn’t muster any desire to attack.

“Boom!!”

A single unsheathe and slash tore through the crowd, Li Chen didn’t press the attack on those who were seriously injured, nor did he intend to finish them off. His only thought now was to escape from Lan Yue City.

Because within the city, who knew how many enemies were still lurking.

Although these enemies were targeting Li Youxue, if he wanted to save Li Youxue, whose enemies they were hardly made a difference.

Pausing briefly, Li Chen set Li Youxue down, carrying her on his back, allowing him a freer range of movement in battle.

He realized that in Lan Yue City at this moment, there were likely still many who wished to confront Li Youxue, and even if they headed for the eastern city gate, they would face numerous obstacles.

If it were just Li Chen, naturally he would fear nothing, but now with the injured, weakened Li Youxue to worry about, he had to be more cautious, keeping himself in peak condition. Li Chen pulled out a few healing pills and tossed them to Li Youxue, while he himself placed a few True Yuan recovery pills in his mouth.

Though he didn’t yet need the pills to replenish his energy, there was no telling how many enemies he would encounter along the way.

For him, it was merely being prepared.

Carrying Li Youxue, Li Chen once again transformed into a force of wind and thunder, dashing wildly toward the east of the city.

He had considered blending into the crowd to quietly slip away.

But even if the opponents couldn’t detect his aura, they surely recognized Li Youxue’s. For Martial Artists whose aura had been identified, changing their appearance was futile.

Unless Li Chen possessed a cultivation technique that could alter aura, and Li Youxue could instantly master it.

Which was obviously impossible.

“Kill!”

Ahead, once more came the cries of battle, Li Chen’s expression remained calm, carrying Li Youxue with the Red Moon blade in hand, without a hint of fear.

“Kill him, and our mission is complete.”

“Li Youxue hardly has any fight left in her; as long as we deal with him, capturing Li Youxue’s merit will surely be ours.”

“Just a mere Envy Heaven Realm, slay him!” someone said coldly, with a voice like a chilling polar wind filled with killing intent.

Li Chen exhaled lightly.

This time, a good thirty or more blocked his path. Although there weren’t high-level experts like the Old Face from before, there were five or six from the Heaven Following Realm.

Such an array was indeed an unsolvable death trap for someone at the Envy Heaven Realm.

But he wasn’t one to concede defeat so easily.

“Want to kill me? Let’s see if you have the skill,” Li Chen’s gaze was calm, yet a more violent killing intent surged from him, even startling Li Youxue on his back.

“How is this man’s killing intent so strong?” Li Youxue was curious, yet confused about Li Chen.

She didn’t know this man, yet he had protected her to this point.

Even in the face of a blockade by numerous powerhouses, he refused to back down.

But why?

It clearly had nothing to do with him, so why was he risking his life to protect her?

“You… just go, none of this concerns you. If they catch me, they won’t hunt you anymore,” Li Youxue said, gritting her teeth, by Li Chen’s ear.

However, upon hearing Li Youxue’s soft voice, Li Chen merely smiled and turned his head.

“Do I look like the type to leave a woman behind and run?”

This question blocked whatever Li Youxue intended to say next.

Seeing Li Youxue’s expression, Li Chen still smiled: “Besides, they’re just a bunch of small fry. Who knows what the outcome will be.”

In Li Chen’s smile, it was as if blood-colored flowers blossomed.

Among the Martial Artists encircling Li Chen, suddenly many felt a chill, even those at the Heaven Following Realm.

This guy, how many has he killed?

Why was his killing intent so intense?

“Finish him off, don’t waste time!” a Mid Heavenly Realm powerhouse shouted decisively.

A group of powerhouses rushed toward Li Chen and Li Youxue with the momentum of an earth-shattering wave.

“Five Elements—Wind Roar!”

Li Chen didn’t hesitate, directly unsheathing the Five Elements Feng Xuanxiao, pushing the Blade Glow Storm to the extreme, engulfing all the Martial Artists in an instant.

Though the surrounding buildings had some defensive arrays, under this violent Blade Glow Storm, they collapsed as easily as sand struck by waves.

The horrifying roar almost echoed throughout the entire Lan Yue City.

“What’s going on?”

“What happened?”

Many instinctively looked toward the source of the commotion.

In their eyes appeared a massive semi-circular light shield; some sharp-eyed Martial Artists even saw the infinite terrifying blade lights within through the light shield.

“What… is this?”

Trapping all within, Li Chen didn’t hesitate for a moment, carrying Li Youxue, charging directly into the Blade Glow Storm of the Wind Roar.

“Merge!”

As they charged into the storm, Li Chen suddenly reached out and grabbed.

The massive semi-circular light shield instantly contracted, losing its grandness, becoming ‘slimmer,’ yet its height continued to rise.

Soon, under Li Chen’s control, the Blade Glow Storm formed by the Five Elements Feng Xuanxiao turned into a terrifying tornado reaching from earth to sky.

The many Martial Artists were all sucked into the tornado, forced into defense, unable to escape in a short time.

Though Li Chen had recently been troubled over his cultivation, he hadn’t stopped experimenting with his techniques, improving them continuously with his increasing cultivation level.

This tornado storm formed by the Wind Roar was Li Chen’s creation!

“Die!!!”

A fierce shout echoed as Li Chen slashed at the earth-reaching tornado.

“Thud!!”

Over a dozen Martial Artists were grievously injured under this slash, their resistance dropping drastically, and within a single breath, these over ten individuals were shredded by the storm.

Li Chen glanced at the few still resisting the storm from the Heaven Following Realm.

He knew it would be impossible to kill these few in a short time, and with a swift turn, he hurriedly left.
