The terrifying murderous intent seemed to materialize, and in the moment he made his move, a long saber emanating an intimidating aura appeared in his hands. The saber blade emanated flowing light, and its sharp saber intent seemed to nearly slice through the air, cutting it apart.

The middle-aged man decisively swung his saber, a blaze of brilliant saber light illuminating the vault of the sky, turning the formerly dark night into what seemed like daytime under this dazzling saber light.

Looking far into the distance, it was as if the endless sky was being cleaved by this strike.

In the blink of an eye, all sounds on Long Street faded away, leaving only the dragon-roaring and tiger-howling-like echo of the saber ringing out.

With a swing of the saber, countless Heaven and Earth Essence Qi converged, forming a saber dragon that rushed towards Pei Xuanjing with a roar.

The coachman, who had seen such a terrifying strike, was so shocked that he seemed to have forgotten how to dodge.

This sudden rise in momentum instantly caught the attention of numerous experts in the Capital. Their eyes were involuntarily drawn towards the direction of Long Street, curious about who was so audacious as to engage in such a fierce fight within the Capital.

This murderous intent was firmly focused on Pei Xuanjing in the carriage, who most clearly acknowledged the potency of this strike.

Feeling the overwhelming saber intent, Pei Xuanjing laughed faintly, murmuring to himself, “A person from Da Li?”

“Heh heh, is that all?”

The light voice that came from the carriage casually suppressed the saber hum that echoed throughout Long Street.

If it had been Pei Xuanjing who had just broken through, facing this strike would likely have warranted a more cautious approach.

But now, his mind and energy were at their peak. What others saw as a terrifying move was nothing more to Pei Xuanjing!

Buzz!

Without getting up from his carriage, Pei Xuanjing merely flicked his Longevity Sword with a finger, and a crisp sword hum resounded. Almost in the instant the sword reverberated, a magnificent and imposing sword intent permeated the air.

What followed was an aura more terrifying than that of the middle-aged man, spreading out from the carriage, with its aggressive edge piercing the sky.

In an instant, the sky that was previously enveloped by saber intent and saber light was shattered by this unrivaled sword intent.

Sizzle…

The sword intent effortlessly tore through the rolling saber light, as simple as tearing through paper.

The sword intent, undiminished in its residual might, then charged towards the middle-aged man.

The sword light shot through at an angle, swift as lightning.

The middle-aged man’s face turned pale. He had never expected his opponent to be this unfathomably powerful; it was utterly incredible and unheard of. He immediately held his saber horizontally, aiming to crush this sword intent.

Boom!

Like an earthquake and a landslide, the smoke and dust billowed, hot waves radiated in all directions.

By the time the dust and smoke had cleared, there was no trace of the middle-aged man.

All that was left in the spot where he had once stood was a pool of blood, clearly indicating that he had been injured by that strike.

“Mr. Min?” The coachman asked softly.

“Let’s go!” Pei Xuanjing’s voice came out.

Apparently, he had no immediate intention of pursuing the matter further.

Although the opponent had blocked his sword, he had been injured by the sword intent. Within his body, a sword intent from Pei Xuanjing lingered, allowing Pei Xuanjing, upon their next encounter, to instantly identify him based on this sword intent.

Although it was a brief encounter, Pei Xuanjing had roughly guessed the man’s origin. At present, the only ones who could harbor such animosity towards him were people from Da Li.

If that powerful man had been alone, Pei Xuanjing would effortlessly have been able to slay him. However, the fact that he could leave so easily indicated that someone was assisting him. At least, when the man had left, Pei Xuanjing had sensed the presence of another individual of Heavenly Rank.

Facing two Heavenly Rank experts alone was nothing to Pei Xuanjing, but if his opponents were focused on fleeing, it would require a significant amount of energy on his part.

The intense clash had been brief, but it had nonetheless attracted considerable attention. After all, this was a significant event in the Capital Area, and any event of this nature would attract attention.

At this moment, countless individuals were hurrying towards this location. Pei Xuanjing had no interest in wasting time here.

There was still ample time for Pei Xuanjing to deal with them in the future.

Having heard Pei Xuanjing’s words, the coachman nodded respectfully and continued to drive in the direction of the Everlasting Observance.

However, he had made up his mind to report this incident to Your Highness the Prince as soon as he returned.

Indeed, as Pei Xuanjing had anticipated, such an intense clash was bound to draw a lot of attention, meaning there was no need for the coachman to report.

Not long after the carriage left, a night patrol general came with his soldiers to the scene.

Faced with the aftermath of a clash between two Heavenly Rank experts, the general did not dare to omit any details and immediately sent someone to report back.

Suddenly, news of the incident reached various factions within the Capital.

“Cough… cough…” Feng Yan coughed up blood, a flush of color returning to his pale face.

His aura seemed disturbed, his Primordial Qi turbulent, with an invisible sword intent moving randomly within him.

Ashina Zhenlu looked at the injured Feng Yan and frowned, asking, “How is your injury?”

Though he had already anticipated great power from Mr. Min, even Ashina Zhenlu was taken aback at the moment Mr. Min made his move.

It must be understood that Feng Yan, being a disciple of the National Teacher,

was not weak among those of the Heavenly Rank. There were not many in the world who could wound Feng Yan, but very few could do so with just one move.

Perhaps, as the National Teacher had suggested, the opponent had reached the same level as the National Teacher, putting him among the strongest in the world.

The fact that he had broken through the Heavenly Rank at the age of fifteen and had reached such a level was astonishing.

If he were to immerse himself in the Heavenly Rank for several decades, he might one day break through into the Realm of Heavenly People.

Just the thought of such a powerful figure emerging from the Great Tang sent chills down Ashina Zhenlu’s spine.

“I can’t dispel this sword intent!” Feng Yan’s brow furrowed, his face changing.

Even though the sword intent had entered his body earlier, he hadn’t been too worried, thinking he could get rid of it in time.

But no matter how he tried now, this sword intent seemed to be integrated into his body, reforming no matter how many times he broke it apart, and seeming to grow stronger each time.

“Hmm?” A flicker of surprise flashed in Ashina Zhenlu’s eyes before he said solemnly, “Let me help you.”

After saying this, he channeled his energy and joined Feng Yan to counter the blow.

Despite putting in several hours, the two of them were ultimately unable to rid Feng Yan of the sword intent, which grew stronger instead.

Finally, with no other choice, Feng Yan had to use a secret art passed down by his teacher to temporarily suppress the sword intent.

The price he paid for this, however, was a decrease in his strength by at least twenty percent..
