Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law-Chapter 833 - 832: Making a Move

"Shangguan Lingyu, will you hand it over or not?" The youth asked coldly.

"I will not," Shangguan Lingyu replied icily.

With a snort, the youth immediately lunged to kill Shangguan Lingyu.

The power of the Immortal Emperor Realm Fifth Layer erupted, infused with the Power of Dao Principles, making the force incredibly tremendous.

A fist smashed down like a mountain flood and tsunami, roaring with towering waves as it brutally crushed toward Shangguan Lingyu.

However, with a single palm strike, Shangguan Lingyu instantly sent the youth flying, spewing blood and crashing heavily into the forest.

The ground heaved, forming a huge crater.

Xu Ping’an, watching from a distance, revealed a look of surprise on his face.

Shangguan Lingyu’s strength was truly formidable. Although she only had the cultivation of the Immortal Emperor Realm Fourth Layer, her strength was already comparable to the Sixth Layer, even approaching the Seventh.

Such strength was already quite formidable.

If this was still her avatar, then the strength of her true self would only be stronger.

Yet, as strong as she was, there was still a stronger opponent, an Immortal Emperor Realm Ninth Layer expert.

Seeing the youth sent flying, the elder immediately took action, attempting to kill Shangguan Lingyu.

The terrifying force bore down on Shangguan Lingyu.

Even as strong as she was, Shangguan Lingyu was no match for a peak Immortal Emperor Realm expert.

Moreover, the elder’s strength was quite domineering, the Immortal Emperor Realm Ninth Layer power imposingly suppressing the elder.

Shangguan Lingyu’s gaze grew sharp, and a Divine Sword appeared in her hands.

Instantly, she turned into a sky full of sword shadows, attacking the elder.

Each strand of Sword Qi contained extremely powerful might.

However, the elder’s strength was clearly much stronger.

The terrifying Immortal Elemental shook, shattering all the Sword Qi.

The elder quickly closed in on Shangguan Lingyu, punching fiercely with an unrivaled power that dominated all directions.

Shangguan Lingyu immediately defended herself, but her attacks were far too fragile in front of the elder.

"Boom!"

The force from the elder’s fist instantly sent Shangguan Lingyu flying backward.

Shangguan Lingyu spat out a trace of blood, having sustained significant internal injuries.

"Hmph, little girl, your strength is indeed good, but you’re still no match for me. Just hand over the Reincarnation List obediently," the elder said with a cold snort.

However, Shangguan Lingyu’s eyes were cold and fierce, and she did not utter a word, as the Immortal Elemental within her exploded forth again.

A massive shadow of the Dao Laws’ path emerged behind her.

This enormous shadow was a full eight thousand meters wide, and its length reached nearly fifty thousand meters.

As the path of Dao Principles emerged, Shangguan Lingyu’s presence was enveloped by an overwhelmingly powerful Sword Intent.

"Chaotic Sword Dao, she has actually comprehended the Chaotic Sword Dao," Xu Ping’an said with a flicker of astonishment in his eyes.

Because in past years, he too walked the path of the sword.

However, he had followed the Supreme Sword Dao, not the Chaotic Sword Dao.

There are many kinds of sword paths, all falling under the category of the sword, just like a great river, with Supreme Sword Dao, Chaotic Sword Dao, and Invincible Sword Dao all being tributaries of the sword.

Among them, the Chaotic Sword Dao is the widest tributary of all sword paths.

Shangguan Lingyu was originally a Chaotic Sword Body, which naturally gave her a strong advantage in the Chaotic Sword Dao.

At this moment, as she burst forth, her aura was vast like the chaotic starry river, exuding a feeling of the boundless and ethereal.

"Sword Opens the Void!"

Shangguan Lingyu slashed with her sword, and a supreme Sword Gang instantly tore through the void, heading straight for the elder.

The advancing elder also felt a dangerous aura and hurriedly deployed all his strength to defend.

"Boom!" An earth-shattering explosion.

The elder held a giant axe in his hand but appeared quite disheveled.

Clearly, this sword strike had caused him considerable trouble.

The elder looked at Shangguan Lingyu in astonishment, unable to believe that someone at the Fourth Layer of the Immortal Emperor Realm could push her to such an extent.

But Shangguan Lingyu wasn’t faring much better.

She appeared somewhat weakened, clearly demonstrating that unleashing such a sword strike had taken a considerable toll on her.

"I want to see just how many sword strikes you can execute," the elder snorted coldly, and immediately charged towards Shangguan Lingyu once again.

Shangguan Lingyu had no choice but to mobilize all her strength and unleash another sword strike.

However, this sword strike was noticeably weaker than the previous one.

The elder swung his giant axe, creating a powerful axe gleam that shattered the Sword Qi.

When the final blow of the axe descended, the force was so immense that even those at the Ninth Layer of the Immortal Emperor Realm had to retreat.

Shangguan Lingyu sensed an extremely dangerous aura and immediately sacrificed one of her life-saving Divine Artifacts.

"Boom!"

A Giant Cauldron materialized, colliding with the axe gleam. It was like heaven and earth had exploded, but it managed to block the entirety of the axe gleam.

An Intermediate Grade Divine Artifact?

Xu Ping’an was somewhat surprised.

Shangguan Lingyu actually possessed such a treasure.

This Giant Cauldron, even among the Intermediate Grade Divine Artifacts, was considered of superior quality; it was extraordinary indeed.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been possible to withstand the elder’s full-powered attack.

However, at this moment, Shangguan Lingyu was clearly running out of immortal power and unable to withstand more attacks.

Even with the protection of a powerful Divine Artifact, she was still being relentlessly pushed back by the elder.

Shangguan Lingyu kept coughing up blood, nearly reaching her limit.

Xu Ping’an shook his head helplessly as he watched this unfold.

He bore no ill will towards Shangguan Lingyu.

From the beginning, Shangguan Lingyu had dealt with matters fairly and hadn’t forcibly tried to bring him back to the Heavenly Spirit Realm.

Otherwise, with Shangguan Lingyu’s abilities, it wouldn’t have been impossible to take him away by force.

"Enough, I’ll save your life, even if this is just a clone of yours," Xu Ping’an muttered to himself.

His gaze settled on the direction where Shangguan Lingyu was retreating toward.

And as it happened, her direction of retreat was towards him.

As they were about to get close, the Soul Hammer that Xu Ping’an had readied earlier came crashing down hard on the elder’s head.

The elder immediately felt a strong dizziness.

Xu Ping’an deployed the Power of Dao Principles, prolonging the elder’s dizziness.

The defending Shangguan Lingyu was startled, her face showing a look of surprise.

She realized that the elder, who had been attacking ferociously, had suddenly stopped and was standing there, stunned.

Before she could react, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her, grabbed her, and ran.

"Xu Ping’an?" Shangguan Lingyu was shocked.

She hadn’t expected her rescuer to be Xu Ping’an.

And she immediately understood that the elder’s sudden pause had been Xu Ping’an’s doing.

He had come to save her?

As soon as Shangguan Lingyu grasped the situation, she offered no resistance and left the area with Xu Ping’an.

By the time the elder came to his senses, Shangguan Lingyu and Xu Ping’an had completely disappeared.

"Elder, how could you let her escape?" a young man flew over, asking angrily.

"It wasn’t that I let her escape, but a powerful person intervened and rescued her. That person’s Soul Power is very strong, stronger than mine. I was stunned by their Soul Power," the elder replied, his expression grave.

He had not even seen who it was before he passed out.

If that person had truly wanted to kill him, he would probably be dead by now.

"If someone can take Shangguan Lingyu away right under your watch, they must be at least at the peak of the Immortal Emperor Realm. Damn it, who could it be?" the young man said furiously.

The prey that was within their grasp had just flown away.
