Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City-Chapter 1097 - 1095: The Fifth Sword Emperor’s Sword... Slowed Down?

Lin Fan composed his emotions and expression, and walked over to Mo Ningxiang and Diwu Yun'er.

He had yet to figure out how to tell Mo Ningxiang about Mo Chen's death, especially since it hadn't been confirmed yet. Rashly revealing it might only upset Mo Ningxiang.

Therefore, he didn't want Mo Ningxiang to notice any flaw.

Although Mo Ningxiang was still young, she was intelligent and deserved cautious attention.

"Brother Lin, why are they all kneeling?"

Mo Ningxiang looked at the massive army, her face full of confusion.

She quietly changed her way of addressing him, showing her inner helplessness and fear.

Diwu Yun'er's serious injury had dealt a massive blow to her, and if he were to mention Mo Chen now, it might cause her to break down. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

Lin Fan sighed deeply in his heart and forced a smile.

"It's nothing, they went crazy."

"Oh..."

Mo Ningxiang was skeptical, blinking her big, puzzled eyes.

"Now that we've taken Wentian City, do we still need to stay here?"

"No need. The Shennong Clan shouldn't attack again; we only need to station troops for defense."

Mo Ningxiang nodded, her gaze turning to Diwu Yun'er. Tears streamed down as she tightly gripped Diwu Yun'er's hand, trembling, "Then... what about Yun'er... will she..."

"She won't!"

Before Mo Ningxiang could finish, Lin Fan interrupted coldly.

His inner guilt was deeper than Mo Ningxiang's!

After all, Yun'er was injured by Yi Tianqiu's sneak attack while saving him.

And it was his negligence that gave Yi Tianqiu the opportunity.

Lin Fan felt as if his heart were being clenched, suffocating, like being twisted by a knife.

He took a deep breath, suppressing his turbulent emotions.

"Yun'er needs to rest quietly. Wentian City has just been taken, with many things to restart; it's not suitable for a long stay."

"Then... do we have to return to the Xuan Clan?"

Lin Fan did not answer. He frowned and asked.

"Do you know where the Fifth Sword Emperor is?"

...

Four-direction City, the Fifth Estate.

The Fifth Sword Emperor paced back and forth in the estate, his brows furrowed, his expression grave.

The servant had just delivered an invitation, taking him by surprise.

[Xuan Clan Clan Leader's Ceremony]

The six words on the cover alone made his heart race.

He and Mo Chen were old friends, very familiar with each other's temperament.

What was Mo Chen up to, creating such a spectacle?

Yet, upon opening it, he was even more shocked!

Inside the invitation.

It clearly announced the clan leader's succession ceremony! And the name following the clan leader was Mo Yunsheng.

The Fifth Sword Emperor stared intently at the invitation, his brow tightening, grave and serious.

Mo Chen wants to abdicate?

Just based on intuition, he felt the whole thing was wrong.

There was an indescribable strangeness!

He closed the invitation, hands behind his back, and paced back and forth.

Yet, the more he pondered, the more terrified he felt, the more he felt the situation was not simple.

Danger seemed to be looming, like a snowball growing ever larger, ready to erupt at any moment.

"Ah Fu! Ah Fu!"

The Fifth Sword Emperor hurriedly called twice.

A figure arrived silently, gracefully.

Ah Fu was the Fifth Sword Emperor's servant and also the steward of the Fifth Estate, having been with him for decades.

Being influenced over the years, he was also a master of the Ninth Layer in the Breaking Dao realm.

Of course, he couldn't compare with the Fifth Sword Emperor's Eighth Layer Middle Heavenly Venerate, but handling some small fry only required his hand.

"Master."

Ah Fu bowed, respectfully.

"Where did Yun'er go? Hurry up and call her back! It's very chaotic outside now. Why is she still running around? That girl is out of control."

"Replying to Master, Miss Yun'er seems to have gone to the Xuan Clan."

"Xuan Clan?!" The Fifth Sword Emperor was taken aback, angry.

"Yes, recently it was the Xuan Clan's little princess Mo Ningxiang's birthday party, and Miss Yun'er went to congratulate her. She has not returned since."

"That wild girl!"

The Fifth Sword Emperor was full of worry.

Currently, it's unclear what's happening with the Xuan Clan. Mo Chen suddenly abdicated, with Mo Yunsheng becoming the clan leader. Also, he heard before that a young man caused chaos in the Xuan Clan, even taking Mo Yunsheng's fiancée.

Coincidentally, Yun'er went to the Xuan Clan.

Could Yun'er be involved in this?

The more the Fifth Sword Emperor thought, the more anxious he became, worried, unable to sit still, pacing more rapidly.

"Ah Fu! Quickly send someone to bring Yun'er back! Say it's my order for her to return! If she refuses, tie her up and bring her back!"

The Fifth Sword Emperor urgently and angrily commanded.

For some reason, his heart was constantly pounding, on edge.

"Yes!"

Ah Fu responded and retreated.

The Fifth Sword Emperor started pacing anxiously again.

But after a few steps.

Ah Fu unexpectedly returned!

He was startled, anger rising abruptly.

"Ah Fu! What's going on?! Didn't I tell you to look for Yun'er? How come..."

The Fifth Sword Emperor stopped speaking, noticing something unusual about Ah Fu.

His body was slightly trembling, his face ashen, bloodless; usually his sharp eyes were now dodging, hollowed.

This was not Ah Fu's typical demeanor! What's happening?

The Fifth Sword Emperor asked coldly, "Ah Fu, what's wrong?"

"Mas... Master..."

Ah Fu stammered, unable to speak, only managing to stretch out his left hand, pointing toward the door.

The Fifth Sword Emperor followed Ah Fu's hand, seeing no one, just the open door and the hall beyond.

Without a word, he immediately left Ah Fu behind and strode towards the hall outside.

Just at the doorway, he saw something unusual in the hall.

A dozen followers surrounded a young man!

That young man showed no fear but carried shame and guilt, his gaze burning at the doorway.

His expression resolute and determined.

Beside the young man was Mo Chen's daughter, Mo Ningxiang.

The Fifth Sword Emperor wondered, how did these two get here?

Taking just one step forward, he was surprised to find the young man holding someone in his arms, previously obscured by the followers.

Looking more closely.

The person in the young man's arms was actually Diwu Yun'er!

Buzz!

The Fifth Sword Emperor's mind went blank.

His eyes widening from bewildered to disbelief, then to burning rage.

A terrifying force exploded from his being!

The very thing he feared most had come to pass.

Clang!

Clouds swirling, shadows of swords elusive.

The Fifth Sword Emperor, never without his sword, wordlessly drew the Cloud Shadow Sword!

The pen moves like a dragon and snake!

Shadows of swords dazzling!

So quick!

The shadow of the sword completely unseen, as if obscured by clouds and vanished into shadows.

This strike aimed directly at a vital point.

If it hit, it meant death or severe injury.

The Fifth Sword Emperor drew his sword as Mo Ningxiang exclaimed, "Ah!"

Before the sound finished, the sword shadow reached Lin Fan's face.

However.

A fraction of a breath!

Fast!

So fast!

Lin Fan hesitated, Instant Escape!

The Fifth Sword Emperor's sword struck air.

This time.

Not only Ah Fu and others were astonished, but even the Fifth Sword Emperor was in shock.

Everyone stared blankly at the Cloud Shadow Sword, then at Lin Fan ten meters away with Diwu Yun'er in his arms.

They couldn't help but think.

The Fifth Sword Emperor's sword... slowed down?

The Fifth Sword Emperor's face twitched violently.

The opponent, merely a Ninth Rank Saint Emperor, managed to evade his strike!

And with Yun'er in his arms!

Swish!

He raised his sword again, aiming at Lin Fan.

"Who are you! Put down my daughter!"
