My Super Beautiful Lady Boss-Chapter 604 - 598 All Swords Return to the Ancestor

Among the Ten Gentlemen of Mount Everest, there was a person who, despite having his sword taken away by Su Xuan, which certainly affected his combat abilities, didn’t suffer a hit to any critical spot.

Su Xuan actually didn’t know how to use a sword. Holding a sword felt awkward to him; his Kung Fu mainly focused on Yixing Fist. For someone accustomed to the fist, to wield a sword well would take some time.

"Plum Blossom Formation!"

The opponent began to form their strategy, while Su Xuan, sword in hand, watched them intently. Their footwork was so fast it seemed they intended to disorient him.

They were mistaken; Su Xuan’s concentration was excellent. The idea of getting him dizzy was out of the question.

Shushushu!

They finally arranged the Plum Blossom Formation. One person stood in the center, surrounded entirely by others, each holding a sword.

Dangdangdang!

The sword in Su Xuan’s hand clashed against theirs, emitting a clear ring. They rotated and struck continuously, resembling more of a relay tactic.

Su Xuan really wasn’t adept with the sword—it felt so out of place even in his hands that he couldn’t bear to hand it over to the opponent.

Crack!

Su Xuan applied force with both hands, and the sword of superior material was ruined by him. It was a genuine waste. If this were in Qiutian City, Su Xuan was certain it would fetch a good price in the collector’s circle.

Damn it, Li Yuanyuan was still lying in the hospital, with only two days left to live. Here was Su Xuan, still not hurrying up to deal with them and then going to snatch the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus. The competition had already consumed too much of his time.

"My sword!"

The man, seeing Su Xuan break his sword, felt it deeply; those who played with swords treasured them as their own lives, as their other halves. What Su Xuan did was tantamount to stealing his wife and disgracing him. The man’s hatred soared; he wouldn’t stop until he’d finished off Su Xuan.

Without the sword, Su Xuan had nothing to block with. The Plum Blossom Formation felt more like an endurance battle to him. Their defense was incredibly tight, and he couldn’t easily penetrate it. Their swords were everywhere; not even a fly could get through.

Every person has a weakness, and every formation has a breaking point.

Su Xuan was looking for a loophole, not believing that this group of ’Ten Gentlemen’ could be so flawless.

At this moment, the mood of the spectators also gradually shifted. They had a sizable bias against Su Xuan initially, after all, he was an outsider. But now, they were getting drawn into watching the matches more. Su Xuan, all alone, had fought from the sixteenth group to the forty-eighth. This in itself was already miraculous. If he could make it to the fiftieth group, most of the audience, he believed, would start to admire him.

At this time, seeing Su Xuan caught in the opponent’s Plum Blossom Formation, everyone felt anxious, wishing he’d quickly find his way out and move on to the next group.

The swords continued to dance; Su Xuan was agile, least likely to be injured. The Defending Platform itself wasn’t large, and as the eye of the formation, the opponent continued to expand their cover, trying to force Su Xuan off the platform.

"Naive, too naive, underestimating Su Xuan!"

Just when Su Xuan was about to be forced off the platform, he suddenly dropped low and swept his legs out—sweeping kick!

Have you ever seen the quintessential sweeping kick from Chinese Martial Arts?

Su Xuan had already noticed that they focused heavily on the upper body, so he started attacking their lower parts.

As expected, once Su Xuan attacked below, their vigilance shot up, and the intensity of their attacks lessened greatly. Su Xuan took the chance to leap up and fly into the crowd, disrupting their formation.

When it came to individual combat, the opponent’s capabilities were still there. Ten people should not be underestimated.

Thump thump thump!

With fists and feet combined, it was a perfect display of power. Close-quarters combat was Su Xuan’s favorite. He was like a slippery eel, weaving in and out, untouchable. Every now and then, he would also strike at their lower bodies, even aiming for their groins.

Su Xuan was truly shameless! He would quickly become a rising star in the world of the shameless.

Several of the Ten Gentlemen from Mount Everest were clutching their groins and couldn’t get up, their faces contorting with pain like the color of pig liver.

Seeing them like this, Su Xuan also felt quite embarrassed; it was just that their defenses were too strong everywhere else. And since that place was vulnerable, it allowed Su Xuan to gain the upper hand. He had been forced to this point, with no choice but to strike there.

Many spectators down below, seeing some of the Ten Gentlemen clutching their groins and squatting on the ground, burst into laughter. To them, the match seemed more like entertainment at this point.

"What a farce!"

Seeing his own men doubling over and too afraid to move from the stands, Song Tianbao, if not for his concern for his little daughter Song Shuangshuang, really wanted to tear Su Xuan apart. Su Xuan truly had a knack for thinking up dirty tricks.

"Daddy, Su Xuan is so clever! Sometimes we need to use our brains flexibly too. We can’t be too conservative. That would only lead to stagnation," Shuangshuang tried to console Song Tianbao.

Qiuyue, seeing Su Xuan use underhanded tactics, giggled behind her hand. This Su Xuan was indeed filthy to the extreme, capable of thinking up any dirty trick. But somehow, Qiuyue found herself becoming fond of him without realizing it—the dirtier he got, the more she liked him. Aren’t people sometimes such masochists, after all, a little mischief is healthier, right?

After Su Xuan’s commotion, the Plum Blossom Formation was scattered, the people tossed about in disarray with no fighting stance left.

"Brothers, don’t panic. Let’s form up again, Chrysanthemum Array!"

Hearing ’Chrysanthemum Array,’ one couldn’t help but shudder inside. A formation named after a chrysanthemum? That was a first.

Just over ten seconds had passed, and their Chrysanthemum Array really took shape.

Su Xuan glanced at it and immediately found that this formation, like the previous one, had the same weakness: a shaky lower stance. They were too lazy even to make improvements, trapped in their own world, overly content with the status quo.

Bang, bang, bang!

This time Su Xuan didn’t continue to crush people’s jewels; after all, that was where one fathered children. Su Xuan still wanted to accumulate some good karma and refrained from going further.

Su Xuan kicked out again; a simple side kick sent several people tumbling to the ground.

"Weak, just too weak. Do you have any powerful moves at all? Bring them out."

Su Xuan looked at them and asked.

It was only now that the opponents began to feel the terror of Su Xuan. They had previously thought Su Xuan was just an arrogant youth, but they hadn’t expected him to have such rich combat experience and astonishing adaptability in the field.

From his combat skills alone, without considering his age, one would surely think he was a battle-hardened veteran, but what stood before them was a young man in his early twenties.

"Brothers, get into formation! Let’s show them our strength!"

The opponents began another transformation of their formation, but Su Xuan simply couldn’t be bothered this time: "Just let me know when you’re ready," he said indifferently.

Su Xuan then looked towards the stands. Seeing Su Xuan look her way, Shuangshuang danced excitedly with her hands and feet: "Brother Xuan, I’m here! I’ve been supporting you all along, and my daddy supports you too. Just focus on your match!"

Shuangshuang shouted at Su Xuan, fashioning her hands into a megaphone shape.

"Thank you."

Su Xuan replied.

Song Tianbao heard his daughter roping him in too, feeling reluctant in his heart but still forced to squeeze out a smile to Su Xuan nonstop, because if his daughter was supporting him, he had no other choice.

Qiuyue saw that Su Xuan had already researched their formation; knowing this would make victory easier, she was sincerely happy for Su Xuan. Two more groups and he could successfully enter the Song Family residence, making the pursuit of the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus like taking something from one’s pocket.

"The formation is ready; Su Xuan, come and embrace your death speedily!"

The Ten Gentlemen of Mount Everest shouted together, and Su Xuan turned to look, involuntarily stupefied— "Damn, what kind of formation is this? It looks like they’re playing Arhat stack."

On the stands, Song Tianbao had been joking and chatting with his daughter. Yet, when he saw the formation put up by the Ten Gentlemen of Mount Everest, his expression changed instantly. How could they resort to this move? It was a last stand used only by evildoers, and when had Su Xuan become an evildoer?

His mind a mess, Song Tianbao knew this formation—All Swords Return to the Ancestor—was the Ten Gentlemen’s superb skill. Once deployed, Su Xuan would certainly not withstand such a powerful force. If Su Xuan died, naturally, he wouldn’t become a Study Companion.

If he died, his daughter Song Shuangshuang would undoubtedly cause an uproar.

Song Tianbao weighed his options. To tell the truth, he was starting to sense his daughter’s affection for Su Xuan, and if this continued to develop, she might fall in love with him, even reaching marriage.

Song Tianbao didn’t want his daughter to leave his side. In the long run, if Su Xuan married his daughter and then refused to stay with the Song Family, there would be issues.

Now he was considering whether he should go down and save Su Xuan, because he knew that once ’All Swords Return to the Ancestor’ was unleashed, Su Xuan would be doomed.

Because in the history of the Ten Gentlemen of Mount Everest, no one had ever withstood this move. Ten years ago, someone did hold out against it but just died a little later—not on the spot, but a week after.

"Should I go down and save Su Xuan or not?"

He was greatly conflicted. Sometimes he thought it would be better to get rid of Su Xuan if he didn’t stay with the Song Family, to avoid future trouble. Yet, his daughter liked him, resulting in this terrible fate. He had no idea what kind of luck Su Xuan had that his daughter had taken a fancy to him. If it weren’t for his daughter Song Shuangshuang’s affection, even Song Tianbao would have liked to go down and spar with Su Xuan himself.

As Song Tianbao hesitated, down at the Defending Platform, the formation ’All Swords Return to the Ancestor’ had already been initiated.

The Ten Gentlemen of Mount Everest began to swing their swords, their movements getting faster until only the sword shadows were visible.

Su Xuan watched them, yet did not feel the slightest bit of nervousness. He simply felt the wind in front of him getting stronger, slowly realizing it was generated by them.

"All Swords Return to the Ancestor, kill, kill, kill!"

Suddenly, countless sword shadows flew towards Su Xuan. He thought they were just phantoms and slightly sidestepped, but then snap!

There was a tear in Su Xuan’s clothes that was now smoking. He smelled something scorched.

Looking up, countless sword shadows were flying towards him again—ten, fifty, five hundred, a thousand!

Each sword shadow contained the Sword Intent of ten men, the Sword Intent being many times more powerful than the sword itself.

If being stabbed by a sword would injure you, being hit by a sword shadow would multiply the force by ten. Just one hit by a sword shadow would be like being stabbed ten times.

The sword shadows kept flying at Su Xuan, and a few times after he dodged them, the missed shadows smashed into the ground, leaving deep marks on the blue stone slabs of the Defending Platform.

All Swords Return to the Ancestor was indeed formidable, casting sword shadows over the Defending Platform without a single blind spot!

Song Tianbao shook his head, knowing that Su Xuan was nearing his end. Su Xuan’s downfall was just a matter of time.

"Young man, you shouldn’t be too rash, if only you had stepped down earlier, you wouldn’t have faced such calamity."
