Although Wang Long's strength was not on par with that of the Twin Sword Sect Master, he was still able to keep the mysterious young man at bay, accurately judging his landing points.
Su Hao was about to use a Wind Split Palm to push back the approaching Twin Sword Sect disciples when he suddenly realized Wang Long's attack!
Without a moment to spare for the ordinary Twin Sword Sect disciples, Su Hao quickly turned around and pointed out, directly meeting Wang Long's strike.
In this case, although Su Hao's Foundation was not inferior to Wang Long's, in terms of utilizing Spiritual Essence, Wang Long far surpassed Su Hao.
Su Hao felt that even though his Primordial Power collided head-on with his opponent's, within the small contact range of sword energy techniques, Wang Long's Spiritual Essence seemed to possess a certain spirit that rendered Su Hao's attacks ineffective, leaving him without a point of leverage. The moment his power slightly stagnated, he immediately faced a counterattack from Wang Long!
In just one exchange, although Su Hao did not suffer a direct heavy blow like those Twin Sword Sect elders, he could not stabilize his stance at all. His earlier plan to strike and then escape was completely interrupted, and he found himself surrounded by the Twin Sword Sect disciples.
"Kill him! Retrieve the Demon Skull!" The Twin Sword Sect Master, who had not been killed by Su Hao but was severely injured, issued this final command before losing consciousness.
Even though the Five Elders had no idea what the so-called "Demon Skull" really was, since their Sect Leader had said so, they could not afford to be careless. While keeping a wary eye on Wang Long, who had just assisted them, they commanded the Twin Sword Sect warriors they had just brought back to surround Su Hao!
There was no choice; those disciples who had originally stayed behind in Fire Village had already lost their fighting spirit due to Wang Long's actions and were no longer capable of battle.
Su Hao's strength was naturally far superior to those ordinary disciples, but with the Five Elders and the scheming Wang Long watching closely from the side, and with him having to deal with the incoming Twin Sword Sect disciples using only one hand due to holding the so-called "Demon Skull," it soon became evident that he was struggling.
Wang Long watched coldly from the sidelines and realized that Su Hao had little chance of breaking through. Suddenly, he moved and vanished from sight.
Although the Five Elders were currently threatening Su Hao from behind, they had been keeping an eye on Wang Long's every move. Seeing him suddenly leave now did not raise any alarms; instead, they breathed a sigh of relief. If Wang Long were to team up with Su Hao for an attack now, they feared that very few would survive!
"Surround him with all our might! We cannot let him escape!" With Wang Long gone, the Five Elders' appetite grew even larger.
Currently, Master Zong had not died on the spot, but even if he could be saved, his strength would never return to its previous level. It was uncertain whether he could retain his power at all. Therefore, they needed to display enough strength to stabilize their ranks. As long as they could capture this murderer this time, their Twin Sword Sect would not collapse entirely.
As for what lay ahead... they would deal with that later!
Thus, Su Hao felt an increase in pressure.
However, at this moment, Su Hao revealed a hint of a smug smile.
Did they think that being in such a passive position meant he was helpless?
"Dream on!"
Su Hao suddenly dodged the combined attack of six disciples, slipping into a temporary gap. With a flick of his right hand, the ground cracked open, revealing strands of red light. The Five Elders were alarmed and were about to rush in personally when the red light transformed into sharp blades. The Spiritual Essence shields of the Twin Sword Sect disciples seemed utterly ineffective against these red blades, slicing through them and cleaving them in two, creating a bloody path for him.
By the time the Five Elders reached the scene, Su Hao had already broken free from the encirclement!
"Damn it! After him!"
Figures flashed in the darkness, making it nearly impossible to track his movements. However, ultimately that figure was still lacking in strength; during his last leap, he lost balance.
This person was none other than Su Hao, who had been fleeing from the pursuit of the Twin Sword Sect disciples.
Back in Fire Village, he had relied on a treasure bestowed by an elder to carve out a path, but he had not completely escaped the encirclement of the Twin Sword Sect. He had been fighting and fleeing with limited control until now when he finally managed to temporarily shake them off!
However, this situation was not sustainable!
After barely stabilizing himself in mid-air, he began to contemplate his current predicament.
It seemed he would have to take a huge risk and use that treasure again!
Just as Su Hao made up his mind, a sudden change occurred beneath him. What appeared to be a patch of weeds transformed into a mirage-like scene. As he approached, it turned into a barren surface—how could there be a mirage in such a place? Su Hao immediately realized he had definitely walked into a trap!
A mound of yellow sand morphed into a massive sand maw that split the ground open. If Su Hao continued on his current trajectory, he would surely fall into its mouth!
Even more terrifying was that the sand maw was drawing him in with powerful winds, making it impossible for Su Hao to redirect his momentum in mid-air!
With no other choice, Su Hao had to abandon the "Demon Skull," tossing it aside into the grass. He struck down on the enormous sand maw with Primordial Power to break it apart. When he landed back on solid ground, that great chasm had already returned to normal.
However, when Su Hao tried to turn back and retrieve the Demon Skull, he found it completely missing! After such a delay, the Twin Sword Sect members were hot on his heels again. With no options left, Su Hao could only stomp his foot in frustration and flee!
"Divine Master, you’re back!"
Wang Long played with the stolen item known as the Demon Skull as he walked towards Fire Village. In the distance, Ying Sang and others who had rescued the villagers from Fire Village spotted Wang Long and hurried over.
"Don't worry; that Twin Sword Sect Master is either dead or severely injured now. The others pose no threat to me. What do you have to be concerned about?" Wang Long's mind was still focused on the Demon Skull.
Although given the circumstances and his strength, even if Wang Long directly appeared to forcefully take it, there would be no problem at all. However, before understanding the forces behind Su Hao, Wang Long did not want him to know that this mysterious item had fallen into his hands. So he played a little trick.
First, he determined the direction in which Su Hao fled, then set up the Earthly Array ahead of time. As he expected, Su Hao thought it was a trap set by the Twin Sword Sect in advance, allowing Wang Long to stealthily steal the item.
Even if Su Hao later suspected something, he would first suspect the numerous members of the Twin Sword Sect who were closely pursuing him. By the time he thought about whether it was Wang Long's doing, who knows how long it would take.
Of course, Ying Sang and her group were fine, but Fire Village was not necessarily someone he could trust too much. Wang Long still cautiously put away the item.
"Uh, we can't say that. The Divine Master is our savior who saved the lives of everyone in Fire Village; of course we have to be concerned," said the Fire Village Chief, who clearly was not from the same mold as the Alin Village leader. His words dripped with flattery and were quite slick.
Of course, being slick did not mean he was a bad person. Wang Long held no hostility towards them—after all, geographically speaking, if he wanted to use Alin Village as a stepping stone to advance into other areas of the Divine Realm, Fire Village was on the necessary path. Integrating them would definitely be beneficial.
"Hehe, you are too kind, Village Chief. Has Ying Sang already rescued all the villagers of Fire Village?" Wang Long said naturally, deliberately making this statement in front of the people from Fire Village to remind them not to forget who their benefactor was.
"Uh, we are not too familiar with the situation in Fire Village; we still need to ask Lord Fire Village Chief about this," Ying Sang cooperatively passed the question back to the Fire Village Chief.
"Hehe, everyone has been rescued; at least those who are alive have been saved! Sigh, those beasts from Twin Sword Sect! If it weren't for Holy Divine Gate sending Lord Wang Long here, I fear that if we had persisted any longer, there would hardly be any survivors left in our village!" The Fire Village Chief was no pushover; with just a few words he attributed this great merit to Holy Sword Sect and repeatedly cursed Twin Sword Sect as beasts. His implication was clear: you from Holy Divine Gate are a prestigious Major Sect and wouldn't be on par with such scum.
