NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1426: A Timely Rescue
Immediately, countless strands of Sword Qi within the Sword Domain blasted toward the five people.
"Not good, it's the Sword Domain!"
These five Emperor Realm fighters were also knowledgeable and recognized it at a glance.
The five faces were full of shock and anger, and one of them shouted urgently.
"Quick, act, break this Sword Domain!"
However, the next moment, a shadow flashed by, and the voice of the speaker abruptly stopped.
His head unexpectedly flew straight off.
Only the body remained in place, gushing blood.
This scene frightened the remaining four, scaring them out of their wits.
They originally intended to join forces to break the Sword Domain, but now, like startled birds, they were blasting everywhere, trying to find the hidden person in the Sword Domain.
But Zhou Yu would not give them this opportunity.
In the Sword Domain, he was like a god.
He could easily block the perception of these four people, allowing him to appear anywhere within the Sword Domain's coverage at will.
Under such circumstances, the five First Grade Emperor Realm fighters, having lost their perception, were like lambs to the slaughter.
In no time, these four were killed one after another.
To Zhou Yu, even Kun Shan, a Fifth Grade Emperor Realm, was killed by him, so these ordinary First Grade Emperor Realm researchers posed no challenge to him.
However, this scene left Jiang Xiuwu dumbfounded.
He looked at the figure appearing before him with disbelief.
"It's you!"
"Zhou Yu!"
Zhou Yu smiled faintly.
"Jiang Xiuwu, I didn't expect that after so long, you'd be in such a sorry state when we met again."
"Tsk, tsk, if I had been a bit later, I might have had to greet your corpse."
Hearing Zhou Yu's teasing, Jiang Xiuwu shook his head with a wry smile.
"Thank you."
After speaking, he could no longer hold on and collapsed directly to the ground.
Seeing this, Zhou Yu went up to check on him.
"It's not a big problem, just some internal injuries and excessive exhaustion."
After speaking, Zhou Yu tossed him two Healing Pills and a Spirit Stone.
Jiang Xiuwu was stunned for a moment, then took the pills, swallowed them in one gulp, and sat cross-legged to begin recovery with the Spirit Stone.
Zhou Yu glanced around and asked:
"Why are you here?"
"And why are they trying to kill you?"
Jiang Xiuwu shook his head.
"If I said I don't know, would you believe me?"
Zhou Yu looked at him and said:
"I believe, why wouldn't I?"
"Because I've just experienced a similar situation."
Jiang Xiuwu's face stiffened.
He didn't know the deeper reasons behind the abolition of the Martial Pavilion, and he thought Zhou Yu's remark meant he was also being hunted by the Martial Alliance.
"I've heard about the Martial Pavilion situation."
"Could it be that after the Martial Pavilion was abolished, they still wouldn't let you go?"
Zhou Yu smiled faintly, without much explanation, only saying:
"Whether they pursue me doesn't matter."
"For me, it's not a big problem."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiuwu fell into silence.
After checking the surroundings, Zhou Yu said:
"It's temporarily safe here, take your time to heal."
"I'll be over there and won't leave tonight; consider it as me protecting you."
After finishing speaking, Zhou Yu returned to Yun Feifei's hiding place.
Seeing Zhou Yu return, Yun Feifei immediately came up to him.
"Zhou Yu, are you alright?"
"Has someone from the Heavenly King Sea come looking for you?"
Zhou Yu smiled slightly.
"Sister Yun, don't worry, it's fine."
"They weren't looking for me; it was Jiang Xiuwu who ran into trouble, and I saved him."
"Jiang Xiuwu?" Yun Feifei was taken aback.
"Where is he?"
"He's hurt and currently healing."
"Oh."
"Sister Yun, we're not leaving tonight; let's stay here overnight."
Hearing this, Yun Feifei excitedly nodded and said:
"Great, I love such a snowy night."
"Light a bonfire and watch the snow."
With that, she ran out to find firewood.
Zhou Yu smiled faintly and then laid down on the snow, gazing at the heavy snow flying in the sky, lost in thought as he drifted far away.
Unknown how much time had passed, suddenly a voice came.
"Thank you for your pills."
Zhou Yu looked up, seeing Jiang Xiuwu approaching.
Judging by his expression, his injuries seemed to have mostly healed.
Yun Feifei was curiously observing Jiang Xiuwu.
Zhou Yu sat up and smiled faintly.
"No need to be so formal."
"Have a seat."
Jiang Xiuwu sat directly on the ground and then looked at Yun Feifei.
"Is this... your woman?"
As soon as Jiang Xiuwu said this, Yun Feifei's face turned a vivid red.
Zhou Yu smiled faintly and said:
"She's my sister Yun, Yun Feifei."
"Sister Yun, this is Jiang Xiuwu."
Yun Feifei nodded.
"I've heard of him, one of the top sword Dao geniuses among the younger generation."
Jiang Xiuwu shook his head with a wry smile and said:
"Compared to Zhou Yu, what kind of genius am I?"
"By the way, Zhou Yu, I remember you're not a Sword Cultivator; how did you manage to comprehend even the Sword Domain?"
This was what frustrated Jiang Xiuwu the most.
He had been practicing Sword Dao arduously since childhood, and to this day, after over thirty years, he had barely cultivated Sword Force to the peak, not yet reaching the threshold of the Sword Domain.
Breaking through to the Sword Domain was as uncertain as not knowing when.
Yet Zhou Yu, a Martial Artist on the Qi Refining Path, had comprehended the Sword Domain.
Moreover, it seemed it wasn't just a single-layer Sword Domain.
One can imagine how shocking it was to him.
Zhou Yu smiled faintly.
"Everything is about opportunity."
"This is beyond your envy."
"Go! Who's envious?"
After that, he turned his gaze toward Yun Feifei, his eyes suddenly moved, and he stared at Yun Feifei intently, making her feel a bit unnatural.
Contrarily, Jiang Xiuwu's gaze became increasingly excited.
"Hey, hey, what are you staring at my woman for in front of me?"
Just then, Zhou Yu said somewhat displeased.
Jiang Xiuwu ignored Zhou Yu and instead asked.
"Sister Yun, is your surname Yun?"
"May I ask if there's a cloud-shaped birthmark on your chest?"
