Chapter 2245: Chapter 2243: Fight to the Death

[Support Us!]

Princess Zi Xuan never expected that by risking her life and braving all dangers concentrated on herself with courage, she would engage in this life-and-death battle, suffering severe injuries without retreat, just to buy her sisters at the Flying Flower Zen Temple some more time and opportunities to escape. But it was futile, because other legacies in the Northern State territory had already made up their minds, viciously surrounding the Flying Flower Zen Temple with a powerful formation, ensuring no female disciple could escape, ready to annihilate them completely!

This was truly an act of extermination, a shock to all the female disciples at the Flying Flower Zen Temple who never imagined it. Their master Sang Qing had passed, and their temple remained one of the strongest in the Northern State territory. Yet today, they were besieged by other legacies whose martial artists donned night attire, determined to wipe out the entire Zen temple’s legacy with no survivors!

In such circumstances, Princess Zi Xuan did not linger in the battle. She knew her continued presence at the temple legacy to attract the besieging martial artists was useless. So, wielding the Cheng Ying sword, she cleared a path with Sword Qi, leading her sisters towards the edge of the formation, attempting to forcibly break through and escape. Only this held a glimmer of hope for survival; otherwise, they might truly perish together here!

However, when Princess Zi Xuan and her sisters reached the formation’s edge, they were blocked by a group of night-attired martial artists. These martial artists, at the early-stage Martial Saint realm, were undeniably powerful, clearly part of multiple legacies combined, not any single one, judging by their attire and status. Among them, not only were young martial artists but also despicable old ones!

"Reveal the location of the Immortal Origin Liquid, then all of you commit suicide. This is the only concession we can offer!" One of the old men said ruthlessly.

"All of us at Flying Flower Zen Temple share life and death, and we sisters will never back down. We will not watch you annihilate our Zen temple!" Princess Zi Xuan stated with unwavering determination.

"Haha, then there’s nothing we can do. Sang Qing passed away, and you disciples will accompany her as a tribute to our merit!" Another old man sneered.

Shua!

Princess Zi Xuan did not hesitate, immediately slashing with her sword, sending a powerful Sword Qi towards one of the old men. It had reached this point, where the martial artists besieging the Zen temple definitely wouldn’t let them leave. Rather than waste words, she might as well kill swiftly and break through the formation sooner!

In an instant, chaos ensued as everyone brawled together, with Princess Zi Xuan leading the charge. She used her Cheng Ying sword continually to release Sword Qi. At this moment, perhaps even Princess Zi Xuan herself hadn’t realized she had become stronger—not only because she wielded one of the ten ancient Divine Swords, Cheng Ying, but also because her resolve to protect the Zen temple unleashed her potential, making her even stronger!

Pu!

Peng!

The shouting and killing never ceased; all female disciples of Flying Flower Zen Temple fought desperately. Yet, they couldn’t withstand the night-attired martial artists dispatched by other legacies, who were determined to slaughter them all with no chance of escape!

The female disciples of the Zen temple gradually became unable to hold out, some severely injured, some struggling, and others killed instantaneously with no trace left. Princess Zi Xuan was extremely anxious, desperately rushing towards the formation’s edge. She knew that if this continued, all her sisters would be slaughtered, resulting in the true downfall of their temple. They must breach the formation swiftly to create an opening for escape; only by dispersing would they have any hope.

Shua!

Wielding the Cheng Ying sword, Princess Zi Xuan unleashed Sword Qi everywhere, charging towards the formation’s edge. Despite her best efforts, when she struck the formation with her left palm, it remained unmoved. Yet, she did not give up, gripping the Cheng Ying sword with her right hand tightly, slashing with Sword Qi, but even the powerful Sword Qi of the Cheng Ying sword couldn’t break the formation!

Shoo!

An old martial artist in night attire appeared behind Princess Zi Xuan, sneering: "Sang Qing entrusted Flying Flower Zen Temple to you, and indeed she chose well. Your determination to protect the temple and your sisters is unmatched. But Sang Qing miscalculated one thing: she didn’t foresee all the legacies in the Northern State territory would unite to destroy the temple. Even if she were alive, she would find this difficult, let alone with your low cultivation realm and insufficient strength. How can you protect the temple?"

"No more nonsense. If you kill all of us, you may indeed destroy our temple. But we will never surrender; we will fight, we will resist to the very end!" Princess Zi Xuan declared with utmost resolve.

"There’s no other way then. We will have to kill you all!" The night-attired martial artist said nonchalantly.

Swish!

This martial artist clad in night attire wielded a big saber, unleashing powerful sword energy. If not for Princess Zi Xuan holding the Cheng Ying Sword, blocking this guy’s sword energy would not be so easy. Right now, Princess Zi Xuan is not worried about her own safety but about how she can break this formation, create an opening, and let her sisters escape. They are almost out of strength to fight, and more importantly, several sisters have been killed and vanished during the battle, which leaves Princess Zi Xuan furious and heartbroken. Yet, she continues to swing her sword fiercely. At this moment, she cannot fall, cannot retreat, or else the hope for escape for her sisters would waver!

"Fight, everyone charge out together! Our Flying Flower Zen Temple cannot be destroyed, we must live, must not let Master down!" Princess Zi Xuan shouted loudly.

"Fight, fight to the death!"

"Right, one death or the other, why not fight bravely!"

"Our Flying Flower Zen Temple must not be destroyed!"

"Even if we die, take these ruthless people down with us!"

"Fight!"

Led by Princess Zi Xuan, the female disciples of Flying Flower Zen Temple were all somewhat out of strength, feeling despair. Yet again, Princess Zi Xuan’s words ignited their fighting spirit. The heritage of Flying Flower Zen Temple in Northern State Territory had once been glorious. When Master Sang Qing was around, who dared to ignore Flying Flower Zen Temple? But now, after Master Sang Qing has just passed away, other heritages of Northern State Territory strike ruthlessly, eager to obliterate Flying Flower Zen Temple completely. Are they to be so useless, so devoid of courage? Since they’re bound to die, why not fight a grand battle? Why not give it all in a fight?

Quickly, although Flying Flower Zen Temple was initially at a disadvantage, Princess Zi Xuan’s words seemed to have roused the fighting spirit of all the sisters, compelling them to fight desperately. Even if they could not rival these martial artists in night attire, they brought pressure upon them, making it harder for them to kill!

"Seems like the real reason for destroying Flying Flower Zen Temple lies in Princess Zi Xuan!"

"Who would have thought Princess Zi Xuan, despite her young age, holds significant prestige in Flying Flower Zen Temple. The disciples hold great trust in her!"

"Only by killing Princess Zi Xuan and crushing this group of female disciples’ fighting spirit can we easily destroy the entire Flying Flower Zen Temple!"

"Indeed, kill Princess Zi Xuan first!"

Several martial artists in night attire saw the key and all flew toward Princess Zi Xuan. They intended to surround and kill her, thoroughly weakening the fighting strength of the female disciples of Flying Flower Zen Temple!

Clang!

The Cheng Ying Sword in Princess Zi Xuan’s hand clashed with a martial artist facing her, who possessed an Early-stage Martial Saint cultivation realm. Instantly, both felt the pressure. However, Cheng Ying Sword proved superior, forcibly breaking the big saber treasure in the martial artist’s hand. At the same time, a sword qi slashed toward the martial artist’s head, causing him to retreat rapidly, barely escaping the sword qi in a fluster!

But, just as Princess Zi Xuan prepared to advance and slaughter this martial artist, four more martial artists in night attire blocked her path.

"You should die first. Only with your death will this group of female disciples give up resisting!"

"You are the firm fighting spirit in their hearts. The four of us will take care of you first!"

"You might as well commit suicide..."
