"Phew!" At this moment, the young nun beside Li Mochou spoke up, "Is it only you, the Quanzhen Sect, who are allowed to bully us, but we are not allowed to harm your Quanzhen Sect members?"
"It seems we can only settle this with our skills!" With that, Luo Fan used a move from the Quanzhen Sword Technique, "Ji Wan Luo Qian," to attack Li Mochou. Instantly, the sword light was like a myriad of stars, enveloping Li Mochou's vital points. This move was mostly feints, perfect for probing.
Li Mochou, seeing the young man's sword technique was quite impressive, did not dare to be careless. She swung her left-hand duster in a circle to encircle the sword light, and with her right hand, she struck at Luo Fan.
"Five Poison Palm?!" Luo Fan immediately felt a foul, pungent smell coming towards him and quickly dodged to the side. However, his long sword was already entangled by Li Mochou's duster and could not be freed. At this moment, Li Mochou's second palm was already attacking Luo Fan. If he kept dodging, he would soon be hit by the poisonous palm. Luo Fan made a quick decision, discarded his sword, and retreated, simultaneously kicking the hilt of the sword, which whistled through the air and struck Li Mochou's face, stopping her from pursuing further.
Luo Fan, now without his long sword, had a somewhat uncertain expression, "I was careless. I didn't expect Li Mochou, whose martial arts are on par with Xiaolongnü, to be so difficult to deal with, just because she has some poison techniques."
However, he did not want to display the Exorcism Sword Technique in front of the Quanzhen disciples. After all, the Exorcism Sword Technique was ruthless and cunning, and it did indeed resemble the techniques of the evil sects. Unless he had already established a reputation as a righteous hero in the martial world, he was afraid it would be hard to explain.
He immediately borrowed a long sword from an injured disciple and rejoined the battle, using a disassembled version of the Quanzhen Sword Technique, but this time he was much more cautious.
Unlike before, when he attacked alone, Luo Fan now began to use the surrounding Quanzhen disciples to restrain Li Mochou.
The two of them had to fend off the attacks of so many Quanzhen disciples, and with Luo Fan, a skilled expert, watching closely, Li Mochou felt the pressure increase significantly.
Although this was not enough to defeat Li Mochou and her apprentice, it was enough for Luo Fan to fully display his sword technique.
"Boy, hasn't your master taught you the Quanzhen Sword Technique? Why are you using it so haphazardly?" Li Mochou was puzzled. The boy in front of her did not seem like a new disciple of Quanzhen, and his strength was not much different from hers, but why was his sword technique so chaotic?
Luo Fan smiled and replied, "Why should you care how I use it? Lady, you're being too meddlesome."
"Oh? I hope you can still laugh so happily later." Li Mochou couldn't help but smile.
Luo Fan, seeing that Li Mochou didn't understand the subtleties, was secretly delighted and taunted, "Lady, it's better not to boast too early."
"Then I'll see what you can do!"
With the wind blowing and the rain drizzling, Luo Fan continued to use these chaotic moves to attack Li Mochou. In fact, the Quanzhen Sect had more than just this set of sword techniques, but Luo Fan, busy searching for the Nine Yin Manual, had no time to practice other sword techniques, so he only went through the motions without delving deeply. Wang Chuyi, considering Luo Fan's age and average talent, was worried that he would be overwhelmed by too much, so he didn't push him. Therefore, Luo Fan only used the Exorcism Sword Technique and this set of Quanzhen Sword Technique.
After a long battle, Luo Fan had gradually figured out some of Li Mochou's moves. With the disassembled version of the Quanzhen Sword Technique becoming more fluid, his attacks became even more intense. On the other side, Li Mochou and her apprentice felt the pressure increasing. Li Mochou was starting to suspect something. At the beginning of the fight, it wasn't so difficult, but as time went on, the boy's sword technique seemed to become more formidable.
Seeing the boy in white still using the chaotic Quanzhen Sword Technique, Li Mochou was puzzled but still couldn't figure out the key.
Luo Fan secretly laughed, "You thought you could catch me, but soon, I'll catch you!"
With this thought, Luo Fan's long sword moved even faster.
After dozens more rounds, Li Mochou felt that her moves were being restricted everywhere. Often, when she attacked, she exposed a weakness to the boy in white. This made Li Mochou feel extremely frustrated. She couldn't use her full strength to subdue the boy in white because of the threats from the surrounding Quanzhen disciples. After some consideration, she began to think about retreating.
However, this boy in white was no ordinary person. She decided to ask his name before leaving, thinking she could settle accounts with him later. "Boy, what's your name?"
"I won't tell you." Luo Fan, seeing that Li Mochou no longer posed a threat, started to tease her. Moreover, seeing that she was about to leave, he thought it would be better to delay her, as the longer the fight lasted, the more advantageous it would be for him.
"Are all Quanzhen disciples cowards who hide their names?" Li Mochou, seeing that Luo Fan wouldn't reveal his name, became somewhat displeased.
"Not at all," Luo Fan smiled, "Lady, haven't you heard that doing good deeds without leaving a name is a virtue? Not being attached to a false reputation is a virtue. I, for example, see injustice and shout, and then I leave without leaving a name!"
"..." Li Mochou's expression became uncertain. Although she didn't understand what the boy was saying, she knew she couldn't get his name. She felt the pressure increasing, and she knew she had to leave soon. She quickly used the Five Poison Palm to force Luo Fan back, grabbed Hong Lingbo, and used her lightness skill to leap away, quickly escaping the battle.
The Quanzhen disciples would handle the aftermath. Luo Fan, lazy to get involved, picked up his precious sword and chased after Li Mochou.
Although Li Mochou's destination was Zhongnan Mountain, she wouldn't head in that direction now, as the Seven Disciples would come to support, and she might run into them. Luo Fan, who was about to leave Quanzhen and venture into the martial world, was heading in the same direction. During this time, he also wondered if Li Mochou was going back to the ancient tomb to trouble Xiaolongnü, which he did not want to see. Therefore, he followed her.
Luo Fan's lightness skill was good, and Li Mochou's was also strong. This chase lasted for several miles until Li Mochou finally stopped and turned around, "Boy, you came alone to chase me. I don't know whether to say you're brave or foolish."
"Lady, you stopped. I don't know whether to say you're brave or foolish." Luo Fan looked at Li Mochou with a smile, feeling very calm. He thought, "I hid my strength just now. Did you really think I was an easy target?"
"Looking for death!" Li Mochou, who had never been teased before, was instantly angry. She shot three Ice Soul Silver Needles and swung her duster to attack Luo Fan. On the other side, Hong Lingbo also attacked with her sword.
"Clang!" Luo Fan's sword was out of its sheath, and in a flash of silver light, his sword instantly cut Hong Lingbo's calf, rendering her unable to fight. He had to quickly deal with Hong Lingbo, or she would interfere during his fight with Li Mochou.
"You hid your strength!" Li Mochou immediately realized the key issue.
"Lady, you finally figured it out?" Luo Fan's sword moved, creating several sword shadows, each faster and more ruthless than the last, forcing Li Mochou to struggle to defend.
Li Mochou was shocked. She didn't expect the white-clothed boy's sword technique to be so good, and she had never seen such a fast sword technique before.
Suppressing her shock, Li Mochou quickly asked, "This is not the Quanzhen Sword Technique. What is it, and who are you?"
"I am Luo Fan, a lay disciple of Quanzhen's Yu Yangzi." Speaking of the sword technique, Luo Fan's body trembled, and a domineering aura spread. He began to boast, "The sword technique I use is the Quanzhen Exorcism Sword Technique. Once the sword is out, all evil is dispelled. I suggest you surrender now, Lady, or it will be unpleasant for both of us."
"What if I surrender?" Li Mochou asked, somewhat amused.
"If you can turn back from your evil ways, I will let you go. If not, I will have to take you back to Quanzhen and let my masters decide your fate." Luo Fan naturally wouldn't say he would kill her, as her ancestor was his ancestor's old lover, and he, who had never even killed a chicken, couldn't bring himself to harm such a delicate beauty.
"What if I say no?"
"Then you must first defeat my sword!"
"Such arrogance!" With that, Li Mochou used the Five Poison Palm to force Luo Fan back. She knew that Luo Fan was very wary of the poisonous palm, and once she used it, she regained some of her disadvantage. With her other hand, she abandoned the duster and used the Three No-Three Not Palm, a treacherous palm technique, to attack Luo Fan. For a moment, she managed to hold her own against Luo Fan's fast sword and even fought with some flair.
However, Luo Fan was already familiar with her moves, while she knew nothing about his sword technique. If they continued like this, she would definitely lose. She needed to find a way to break the deadlock.
Luo Fan, on the other hand, was becoming more and more confident. He thought, "This Exorcism Sword Technique is truly formidable. Since its creation, it has never met its match. If it weren't for the fact that it cost me my manhood, I would love this sword technique."
However, the confident Luo Fan didn't realize that danger was approaching him!
"Boy, I don't want to tangle with you today. Goodbye!" After a dozen more moves, Li Mochou struck at Luo Fan with her left hand, trying to force him back.
"Did you use the wrong hand in a hurry, Lady?" Luo Fan struck back, knowing that Li Mochou's Five Poison Palm was in her right hand, so he wasn't afraid of her left hand.
"Clap!" The two palms met, and Luo Fan's face turned pale. He looked at his palm and saw two black and red blood holes, which were quite alarming!
"Ice... Ice Soul Silver Needles, you..." Luo Fan quickly used his inner strength to suppress the poison, but the defeat was already certain!
