Zombie Bodyguard-Chapter 1540 - 1537: Miss Is Injured

Lin Tian easily shattered the longswords of four female disciples, leaving everyone momentarily stunned. The female disciples of Qingshuang Pavilion, although not each possessing a Purple Lightning or Frost Sword, certainly wield high-quality swords because Qingshuang Pavilion has a master swordsmith.

While the female disciples were in a daze, Lin Tian strolled leisurely, passing through their blockade, and continued to move towards the valley. Lin Tian had a hunch that Xiao Manxuan was inside the forbidden land of Qingshuang Pavilion. Otherwise, with all this commotion caused by Lin Tian here, given the little girl’s personality, she would have shown up if she heard it.

However, taking action or forcefully breaking in at Qingshuang Pavilion is not the same thing. Moreover, in front of numerous Ancient Martial Artists, Qingshuang Pavilion has every reason to destroy Lin Tian.

Behind, Miss watched with anxiety and was just about to call out to stop him when a faint sound suddenly echoed in everyone’s ears. Although it was just one sound, two sharp auras abruptly descended.

Amidst a white blur, two sword lights flew swiftly towards Lin Tian. The Ancient Martial Artists turned to look, realizing it was Tang Ziqing and Tang Muling who had attacked simultaneously, one being Xiao Manxue’s master and the other a Sword Servant of Qingshuang Pavilion. The simultaneous attack by two Innate Experts shocked the Ancient Martial Artists once again.

Among regular Ancient Martial Artists, an Innate Expert is rare, yet Qingshuang Pavilion easily has several, showcasing their deep heritage, which was one reason for their shock.

The other reason was naturally seeing two Innate Experts dealing with one person together. It was the first time they saw two Innate Experts from Qingshuang Pavilion attacking together.

In their view, even if Lin Tian defeated Ji Zimo, proving his prowess, he couldn’t possibly escape the joint attack of two Innate Experts this time. The outcome would either be death or injury.

Facing the sword lights from Qingshuang Pavilion, Lin Tian dared not be careless; those could harm a zombie body. He immediately activated super perception and saw the trajectory of the two sword lights without looking back.

One aimed at his arm, the other at his leg — they intended to cripple him. Lin Tian felt a chill in his heart; the women of Qingshuang Pavilion were indeed ruthless. The slight goodwill he had felt towards them instantly vanished.

What Lin Tian didn’t know was that taking action on their territory, if it were ancient times, he could be killed outright. Of course, in modern society, you can’t just kill someone. Even if they wanted to, Ning Luoxi in the shadows wouldn’t agree.

Humph...

Lin Tian snorted coldly in his heart, twisting his body and narrowly slipping through the gap between the two sword lights. The speed and small room for error of two Innate Experts’ coordination were such that even experts of the same level might not detect in time. But Lin Tian, relying on super perception, managed to see it.

His dodging steps and movements were indeed ghost-like. At this moment, Lin Tian must thank the Beast Skin Cultivation Technique. The dodging action at that moment was so similar to the movements on it; with an ordinary body, one couldn’t perform them, but the Beast Skin Cultivation Technique recorded such movements.

It seemed that the more he encountered strong enemies, the more the Beast Skin Cultivation Technique could display its power. Lin Tian realized he understood too little about the Beast Skin Cultivation Technique. His speed and movements in evasion left everyone dumbfounded once again, even Master Tang, usually as calm as still water, brightened his eyes.

"What... what is this movement technique?" an Ancient Martial Artist asked in amazement.

"In ancient martial arts, never have I seen such a miraculous movement technique. Even the Wang Family’s Tai Chi Wandering Dragon Body Skill cannot compare. It’s almost reaching the path of Dao, marvelous..."

This question was destined to remain unanswered for them. After slipping through the two sword lights, Lin Tian’s figure turned, rushing towards Tang Ziqing. Why rush at Tang Ziqing and not Tang Muling?

Because Lin Tian couldn’t stand her for a long time. From the start, Tang Ziqing was aloof and condescending. Back at Fanyin Temple, even the Demon Exorcist Zhang Lingyu was mocked by her, and she imperiously sought to claim the Purple Flame Sword, under the pretense of doing it for the world’s common people.

If not for the female zombie descending from the sky and snatching away the Purple Flame Sword, she might have succeeded.

"Meteor Burst!"

Lin Tian punched out with overwhelming momentum. Everyone present felt a stillness around them, followed by a tremendous roar, with a faint sensation of heat in the air, as if a meteor streaked past them.

"Seal technique!"

As an Innate Expert, Tang Ziqing naturally wouldn’t panic. Her expression remained as calm as ever. She gracefully retrieved her longsword and then stabbed out in a spinning motion.

Many Ancient Martial Artists saw a blur before their eyes, and it seemed like a shield formed by sword shadows. At the edges of the shield were rapidly spinning sword blades. At a glance, it looked like a sword shield, defending while seemingly ready to shred the enemy into pieces, striking fear into the hearts of onlookers.

When cultivating the way of the sword, even in defense, there’s an incredibly sharp offense. This is the terror of a Sword Cultivator. Simultaneously, a sword light reappeared. Tang Muling, without hesitation, slashed another sword light from the side, still targeting Lin Tian’s arm.

Although Lin Tian had evaded their combined sword light attack, the two Innate Experts weren’t affected at all; their coordination remained impeccable.

"Now Brother Lin Tian is in trouble..." many Ancient Martial Artists shook their heads.

"Previously, he could dodge the sword light entrapment because there was room to maneuver. But now, Brother Lin Tian is using all his strength in the offense. With such a ferocious punch, no one could halt the punch and evade perfectly..."

Yet, before they finished speaking, they witnessed that bizarre, uncanny movement technique once again. Lin Tian, in his offensive, did not halt his attack in the slightest, nor did he slow his punch. He simply twisted his body in a mysterious way, narrowly avoiding the sword light flying from the side. The sword light swept past his arm, his ear, and flew off into the distance.

With a loud "boom..."

Almost simultaneously as he dodged the sword light, Lin Tian’s "Meteor Burst" struck the "Sword Shield" with thunderous roar, shaking everyone’s eardrums painfully. The spreading shockwaves cracked the ground as if rolled over by heavy tanks, even crushing it to pieces.

Tang Ziqing’s "Sword Shield" couldn’t hold for more than three seconds before it shattered. She too was pushed back by Lin Tian’s force. But as she retreated, she slashed three times in quick succession, with three sword lights appearing abruptly and slicing towards Lin Tian.

Even in retreat, maintaining the offensive; attack is the best defense. A Sword Cultivator is indeed sharp, like a towering sword, radiating sharpness at all times.

About the Sword Cultivator’s madness, Lin Tian had long experienced from Xiao Manxue. During the sparring period before, Xiao Manxue completely treated Lin Tian as a practice dummy, brushing all usable moves, each time exhausting herself to the extent.

Thoughts do indeed pass down, the master and apprentice alike.

The one most torn about the fight between Lin Tian, Tang Ziqing, and Tang Muling was none other than Xiao Manxue. On one side was Lin Tian, and on the other was her master; she could help neither and hoped neither would be injured.

"Lin Tian, Master, stop fighting..."

Xiao Manxue anxiously said, suddenly spitting out a mouthful of blood. Her eyes rapidly lost focus, and her body slowly collapsed.
