Taiping Inn

Shangguan Wan was furious, and she used her profound skills to heal the wound on her wrist at a speed visible to the naked eye. At the same time, she swept her body and attacked Qin Su.

But Qin Su did not fight her head-on. She used "Star Turning and Shifting" to distance herself from her, and at the same time threw the "Grandmaster" in her hand towards Shangguan Wan. Although this knife was a hand-off knife, it was infused with Qi by Qin Su, and its own sharpness was difficult to resist, so its power should not be underestimated.

At this time, Shangguan Wan's disadvantage of being unarmed was revealed. She had just used her own wrists to verify the sharpness of the two magic weapons. Naturally, she did not dare to take it rashly. Shangguan Wan raised her arms and sleeves, revealing two snow-white forearms. Her arms were lingering with strands of sword Qi, crisscrossing, as if Shangguan Wan had added a pair of arm guards.

Shangguan Wan raised her right arm to block the knife, and the sound of metal and stone was loud, like the intersection of swords. A violent fluctuation of Qi was stirred up, rippling layers of waves between the two people.

"Grandmaster" almost flew back along the original trajectory. Qin Su reached out to catch the "Grandmaster" and threw the "Qi Fang Wang Dao" in the same way.

Shangguan Wan blocked the knife with his left arm again, but just as "Qi Fang Wang Dao" flew back, the "Grandmaster" flew over again. Shangguan Wan had no choice but to block it with his right arm.

In this way, the two knives came and went between the two women, back and forth, as if the two had a tacit understanding and were playing a trick. But only the two women knew the danger. They saw the speed of the two knives going back and forth faster and faster. In the end, the stream of light carried by the knives almost connected into a line. The two people fought more and more anxiously, but Qin Su had no distracting thoughts in his heart. His mind was clear and calm. He didn't expect that this fierce battle would be a win or a loss, and who would live and who would die. On the contrary, Shangguan Wan was forced by Qin Su. Although there was no danger and the sword energy on her arm did not diminish at all, she was more and more angry and impatient. The difference between the two was obvious just in terms of their state of mind.

Shangguan Wan suddenly shouted and shook her arms. With her Qi that was more than one level higher than Qin Su's, she shook all the two swords away. Then she raised her legs and swept them, using the "Wind Sweep Sweep", which swept a raging wind towards Qin Su's temple.

Qin Su was not surprised or panicked. She used her Qi to control the two swords that were shaken away, making them like a young swallow returning to the forest. After a turn, they flew towards Qin Su again. At the same time, Qin Su erected her left fist on the side of her cheek to block the "Wind Sweep Sweep Sweep", so that Shangguan Wan's leg could not be fully used, but her arm was directly shattered. However, Qin Su seemed unaware and hit Shangguan Wan's ankle with her right fist.

The two women separated, Qin Su's left hand drooped softly, and her right hand caught the "Grandmaster" and "Deceiving the Way" that flew back, holding two swords in one hand.

Shangguan Wan seemed to be fine, but the foot that was injured by Qin Su was lifted up in the air, with only the toes touching the ground.

Qin Su breathed gently, and gave birth to an arm made purely of qi, and at the same time threw the "Grandmaster" to this illusory arm with her right hand.

The injury on Shangguan Wan's foot healed quickly, from the toes touching the ground to half of the sole of the foot touching the ground, and finally the heel also fell down, intact. After seeing Qin Su's method of turning qi into an arm, Shangguan Wan sneered, stomped her feet heavily on the ground, and put her hands together in front of her chest. Behind her, a faint white halo was born, the light flowed, and mist gathered and dispersed around her, just like a bright moon on the sea, illuminating the world.

The next moment, Shangguan Wan approached Qin Su's body, standing still like a mountain. Behind her was a bright light, which gave people the feeling of a round screen or a peacock spreading its tail. When the mist and light dissipated, it was neither a screen nor a peacock spreading its tail, but dozens of illusory arms. These arms performed their own unique skills, including "Jade Tripod Palm", "Golden Death Fist", "Ice Finger", "Wanhua Divine Sword Palm", "Nine Yin Ghost Hand", "Finger Xuan Nine Styles", "Great Light Lion Claw", "Yin Yang Vertical and Horizontal Hands" and other unique skills of various sects, mixed with "Yin Yang Polar Birth", "Wind Thunder Cloud Qi Birth", "Reverse Qi Cloud Error", "Subtle Fate Birth", "Wind Sweep Remnant Cloud Sweep", "Xuan Yin Sword Qi Evil", "Nine Yin Xuanming Swing" and other sword moves. At the same time, Shangguan Wan's body was also surging with various qi, including "Xuanwei Zhenshu", "Xuan Yin Zhenjing", "Taishang Danjing", "Dabaoping Seal", and "Zuowang Zen Gong".

The five great profound skills converged in one furnace. Although Qin Su tried her best to operate the double swords and had the help of two great magic weapons, the realm of cultivation was too different after all, and the various auras soon engulfed Qin Su's figure.

Zhou Shuning and Shen Changsheng saw it, and were shocked and anxious, but they were helplessly imprisoned by Shangguan Wan's aura and could not move. The two saw the various auras surging, but no sound came out, and they didn't know what happened.

After a while, there was a muffled groan suddenly. It sounded like Shangguan Wan's voice, but it was not Qin Su. The two couldn't help but feel overjoyed, and couldn't help thinking in their hearts: "Could it be that Sister Qin has some unknown life-saving skills, and she hurt this female devil unexpectedly?"

Just as the two thought so, the brilliance generated by the various auras gradually dissipated, and the scene became clearer and clearer, but there was an extra person between the two women.

Qin Su's two swords had already fallen out of her hands, and her arm, which was transformed by the Qi, had also disintegrated. At this moment, she was leaning softly against a man. The man's left hand was around Qin Su's waist, and his right hand was facing Shangguan Wan's palm.

Zhou Shuning and Shen Changsheng were immediately overjoyed, because this man was Li Xuandu.

In their opinion, although Sister Qin was powerful and could fight the female devil in a short period of time, she was not her opponent after all. But it was different when it came to her brother. His brother was not invincible, but he was not far behind. The people who could beat his brother were no more than the great heavenly master, earth master and others, and it was definitely not the female devil in front of them.

Neither Zhou Shuning nor Shen Changsheng were stupid people. They could not tell the difference in cultivation between the three people, but they could judge their strengths and weaknesses through the changes in their expressions. When Sister Qin faced the female devil before, her expression was solemn and even a little nervous, which showed that Sister Qin was in a weak position. But after Li Xuandu changed, he was not solemn or nervous at all, and even a little too calm, as if he did not take the woman in front of him seriously at all. Instead, the female devil was a little angry, and a little dreadful and fearful.

Just now, Li Xuandu's palm broke Shangguan Wan's dozens of moves, even the five great profound skills. It was not because Li Xuandu's cultivation was much higher than Shangguan Wan, but because Li Xuandu was too familiar with these skills and naturally knew the flaws.

Until this moment, Li Xuandu finally confirmed his guess that the earth master removed his inner demon in order to transfer it to Shangguan Wan. Li Xuandu once looked up the records about Yin Yang Sect and earth master in Mr. Shen's study, and then he found a very interesting thing, that is, the earth master disappeared for a period of time after he first appeared in the world. Li Xuandu speculated that the earth master was busy inheriting the throne at that time, and caught up with the change of dynasties, so he had no time to take care of the world. But when the earth master appeared in the world again, his realm and cultivation had greatly increased, just like Li Xuandu who got the immortal stone today. Li Xuandu deduced from this that the reason why the earth master's cultivation was greatly improved must have been some kind of trick.

Later, Li Xuandu was ambushed in the Rouge Shop in Jinling Mansion, and his knee was shattered by the sword energy of "Anti-Heaven Tribulation". At that time, Li Xuandu had a vague guess in his heart, but he was not sure. Today, Li Xuandu can finally be sure and no longer have any doubts.

As for why Shangguan Wan is in the realm of heaven and man creation, instead of the realm of heaven and man boundless when Li Xuandu removed the inner demon, the reason is also very simple. The earth master Xu Wugui has a secret method to subdue the inner demon. He once promised Li Xuandu this secret method, but Li Xuandu did not agree. If Xu Wugui passed this secret method to Shangguan Wan, then Shangguan Wan could successfully practice the thirteenth sword "The inner demon is born from me" with the foundation of the twelve swords, and then it would be the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin". Shangguan Wan's own cultivation plus Li Xuandu's cultivation were only one step away from the realm of heaven and man creation. With the help of the "Thirteen Swords of Taiyin", it would be a matter of course to enter the realm of heaven and man creation.

More importantly, removing the inner demon is different from the "Eclipse Sun Method" or the "Swallowing Moon Method". The latter two only absorb other people's cultivation and use them for their own use, and cannot take away other people's learning, but the inner demon is different. The inner demon and Li Xuan are two sides of the same coin. What Li Xuan knows, the inner demon also knows. Therefore, after Shangguan Wan absorbed Li Xuandu's inner demon, he also got all of Li Xuandu's learning.

Previously, Li Xuandu was most worried that Shangguan Wan would learn the "Taiping Qingling Sutra" together, because after Li Xuandu got the Longevity Stone, he integrated most of what he had learned before, and the fake pills were removed and the true ones were retained. Now his cultivation is all derived from the "Taiping Qingling Sutra". Li Xuandu knows the power and mystery of the "Taiping Qingling Sutra", so except Qin Su, he has not passed it on to anyone else. If the "Taiping Qingling Sutra" falls into the hands of Shangguan Wan, that is, it falls into the hands of the earth master, it will be like adding wings to a tiger, and the consequences are unpredictable.

But in the fight just now, Li Xuandu noticed that Shangguan Wan had not practiced the "Taiping Qingling Sutra" and there was no trace of the "Beidou Thirty-Six Swords Jue". It seems that removing the inner demon is not a sure thing, just like transplanting flowers and plants, it is inevitable that some roots and branches will be torn off. In the process of removing the inner demon this time, Shangguan Wan obtained the five major mysterious skills, the method of "fake pill", the "Taiyin Thirteen Swords", the "Nitian Jie" and "Leakage Pass", but lost the "Taiping Qingling Sutra" and "Beidou Thirty-Six Swords Jue", and failed to inherit them all. For Li Xuandu, this is a blessing in disguise.

In addition, Shangguan Wan has only been getting the inner demon for a short time and has not been able to fully integrate it. Therefore, in addition to the great change in his temperament, Shangguan Wan has not been able to operate as smoothly as Li Xuandu used to. In other words, Shangguan Wan's realm is unstable now and cannot exert his full strength.

This was the second time Shangguan Wan fought with Li Xuandu. The first time, the two fought too hastily, and Shangguan Wan took advantage of the sneak attack. He was unintentional and ended up with his wrist replaced by his knee. This time, Li Xuandu took advantage of Shangguan Wan's fight with Qin Su and suddenly attacked. Li Xuandu was the person who knew "himself" best in the world, so Shangguan Wan was naturally no match for him, so Shangguan Wan was defeated by Li Xuandu.
