Chapter 1425: He Is; He Isn’t!

Chapter 1425: He Is; He Isn’t!

He Is; He Isn't!

As Cha-Eun Xiao and the others heard Han Bingxue, they were all astounded!

This man in black clothes who was desperately crazy was actually the prime master of the Saint Sunlight Sect, Wu Huitian, known to be missing for a long time!

Was it… Was it even possible?

Cha-Eun Xiao made a decision immediately and shouted, "It is not that simple! Take him down! I want him alive!"

Cha-Eun Xiao gave the order, and the others all followed.

After giving the order, Cha-Eun Xiao rushed forward first to lead the others.

Wu Huitian's return seemed to bring some hope for the martial world.

If he captured Wu Huitian, the people who were missing could be found.

At least there was a clue to it. Perhaps it could reveal the hidden truth about everything.

Cha-Eun Xiao could just ignore the others, but Yue Changtian, the prime master of the Cold Moon Palace was one of those people. He couldn't ignore Yue Changtian. Besides, there were a lot of people from other sects included…

Meanwhile, if he could make sure of something about it, he could bring what he, Jun Yinglian, and Xuan Bing discussed earlier up to the public. It would be a great start!

The man in black clothes saw the others approaching together, and he became crazier. He started to laugh in a hoarse voice, savagely shouted and said, "Han Bingxue, whatever is between us from the past, let's end it here today!"

Han Bingxue coldly smiled and said, "You are a demonic creature now. What could be between you and me? If you are still the man I know, Wu Huitian, you may still get the chance. Now, you don't deserve it!"

The man in black clothes laughed loudly and said, "What makes you think you are so good, Han Bingxue? You disgusting f*cking bastard, who enticed other's wife!"

After that, he actually rushed right over toward Han Bingxue like a bull.

Han Bingxue made a sword attack right towards the middle, pointed at the enemy's heart. Unexpectedly, the man didn't seem to dodge, moving right ahead to the sword on his chest. The two cultivators both attacked in full power, moving fast like a bolt of lightning.

Within the time of a blink, they already collided to each other.

Han Bingxue's sword went smoothly through the enemy's chest like cutting off a piece of bamboo. The sharp sword breath exploded inside the enemy's chest. Blood and flesh splashed everywhere.

The enemy's sword had arrived at Han Bingxue's throat.

Apparently, the man in black clothes was sacrificing himself to attack. It was an attempt to win the fight by sacrificing himself. In fact, he got himself hit by Han Bingxue on purpose to surprise Han Bingxue. While Han Bingxue was slightly stunned, the man in black clothes made his own sword attack to kill and end the fight. That sacrificial move actually forestalled Han Bingxue's attack!

However, he was too much weaker than Han Bingxue in cultivation power. Han Bingxue's Tittle Phase skill allowed him to move extremely fast. He was good at dodging. As he lowered his head a little, threw up a shoulder a bit, the enemy's sword went empty and slid over him. He was unharmed. "Do you actually think you can kill me like this? Is this all you got? To die with me? Wu Huitian, you are not there yet!"

Wu Huitian's both eyes, which weren't covered under his mask, became cruel, crazy, desperate. He laughed like a mad man, and said, "You will know soon! I am absolutely there!"

After that, it seemed like he said something to someone through mind connection. The next moment, his body suddenly expanded really fast.

"No!"

Cha-Eun Xiao hurriedly moved over and got in between the two men. He immediately hit Han Bingxue away with a palm strike.

He had to do this. No matter how good Han Bingxue's Tittle Phase movement technique was, it required time for Han Bingxue to operate it. Since Han Bingxue was holding his sword which was inside Wu Huitian's body, he couldn't truly make a fast reaction. The enemy was going to kill himself to finish the last attack, which was very likely not possible to dodge for Han Bingxue!

Just as Cha-Eun Xiao thought, almost at the same time when Han Bingxue was hit away, it exploded with a big breaking sound. The man in black clothes abruptly exploded into pieces right in front of everybody's eyes. The strong air flows flew in all direction like a windstorm.

The prime master of the Saint Sunlight Sect actually chose to make himself explode, and became a weapon to make his final attack.

It was the last thing he did to claim his revenge!

The explosion was obviously powerful. Cha-Eun Xiao got hit for Han Bingxue and faced the savage airflow.

The horrible energy wave which contained Wu Huitian's fury was overwhelming. Even though Cha-Eun Xiao was powerful, if he had to get all the energy exploding on him, he would be deadly wounded. However, with his fast reaction, he immediately held both his hands together and shouted loudly. "Cage Phase!"

The space around him seemed to freeze!

The overwhelming energy flows caused by Wu Huitian's self-explosion was actually locked inside a small space by Cha-Eun Xiao when it was just about to spread. The others were all experienced cultivators in the martial world. They all saw how horrible the explosion could be, so they all moved away as fast as they could.

However, when they were about to move away, the horrible exploding energy had broken through the lock of Cha-Eun Xiao's Cage Phase energy. The horrible killing flow was spreading away for the second time.

Luckily, that one second gave the others time to operate their best martial arts to defend themselves against the attack.

Cha-Eun Xiao's Cage Phase technique got broken, and he suffered from the impact. With a groan, he was pushed away by the airflow.

Blood ran out of his mouth. He was severely injured.

As such a powerful cultivator, he wasn't easy to get hurt. However, once he was hurt, it would be severe. A while earlier, he forcibly tried to block the horrible exploding energy flow. His Cage Phase technique was almost cracked immediately. The impact from his technique and the explosive energy both hit him. Even though his power had a strong foundation, he couldn't endure it.

Xuan Bing had a pair of sharp and experienced eyes. She hurriedly operated her own Cage Phase technique and covered Cha-Eun Xiao with her energy, which eventually resisted the aftereffect of the energy blow.

However, the explosive energy blow kept pushing Cha-Eun Xiao away.

Wu Huitian was only a top-level Dao Origin Stage cultivator, who even hadn't reached the Tittle Phase. However, even though he wasn't in the Tittle Phase yet, he was at the top of Dao Origin Stage. His power was pure. Otherwise, he wouldn't have become the prime master of the Saint Sunlight Sect. As he made his last attack of desperation, he exploded himself to make one strike that contained ten times of his full power. Cha-Eun Xiao had done two things at a time when he got hit by the explosive blow. On one hand, he sent Han Bingxue away; on the other hand, he used his Cage Phase technique to lock the explosive energy. Even though he was such a great and powerful cultivator, he couldn't handle the explosion's power which was ten times as powerful as a top-level Dao Origin Stage cultivator's full power!

After a while, the energy waves of the explosion stopped. The place where the man in black clothes exploded became a big pit.

It was a huge pit which was hundreds of meters deep.

The man in black clothes didn't actually take off his mask during the whole ordeal. No evidence could show that he was Wu Huitian.

Even though everybody was sure that he was, none of them said it.

Who was dead was gone. Judgment should be made by later generations. People who stayed here at the moment were all influential figures in the world. None of them wanted to judge somebody behind one's back. It was dishonorable!

"Wasn't he Wu Huitian? Can we be sure about it?" Cha-Eun Xiao looked at Han Bingxue.

Cha-Eun Xiao needed to know if this man was Wu Huitian, so that he could go on to bring up the discussion he wanted later, so he asked Han Bingxue, who had fought against the man. Besides, Han Bingxue knew Wu Huitian the most among all the other people.

Han Bingxue apparently hesitated. He said, "Familiar… But… I can't be sure."

Cha-Eun Xiao looked solemn, he deeply looked into Han Bingxue's eyes and stopped asking.

Han Bingxue's face had a long cut wound. A scar like that on his pretty face, he was totally disfigured. Although it would heal very soon. However, for the next a few days, Han Bingxue was not going to look handsome anymore.

However, although Han Bingxue cared about his face so much, he didn't seem to be angry. That was rare.

He looked weird.

He seemed to be regretful, lost, frustrated, but also relieved.

Cha-Eun Xiao saw them all, but he didn't say anything.

Han Bingxue's answer was apparently a surprise to Cha-Eun Xiao. However, Han Bingxue had his choice to make. Cha-Eun Xiao wouldn't blame him!

The battle was in peace. They started to sum up the fight. Everybody couldn't help taking a cold breath. Over twenty people joined the battle this time, and almost all of them were injured. They killed all the enemies except their leader. Nobody died in the fight, but most of them got injuries that frightened them afterward.

They didn't know that if Cha-Eun Xiao didn't use his extreme Yang attributed technique to draw the attention of the enemies, which helped Xuan Bing with the extreme cold ice locking attacks, they wouldn't have the chance to play the last scene surrounding the last enemy together. If not for Cha-Eun Xiao, they wouldn't have the chance to win the battle without sacrificing anyone!

"This time, we had almost all the super cultivators in Qing-Yun Realm together fighting against the enemies. Yet we still got injured so bad." Cha-Eun Xiao said, "If we face the core force of the vile organization, what then? I don't think we have a promising future on this!"

The others were all experienced cultivators, who understood exactly what Cha-Eun Xiao meant. They wouldn't be lost in the pride of winning just one battle. As they thought deeper, they were frightened. Everybody looked heavy-laden.

The enemies didn't have support coming, which meant that they were no better than just a front line party in the organization, who was only sent there to cause some turmoil.

They must be one of their good troops, but definitely not the main force.

However, such a small team of people had stirred up such a big disturbance!

What if all the enemies came for the battle? How would that end?

It wasn't going to be good!

…

"He talked to me. He said he couldn't live anymore."

Han Bingxue stood right in front of Cha-Eun Xiao, talking in a heavy voice which sounded frustrated.

"He said he couldn't be more disgraced."

"He wanted me to cover his identity."

"He came to me on purpose, and he decided to make himself explode from the very beginning. It was obvious. If you guys didn't come, maybe I could hit him away to the sky with my sword to save everybody from the explosion…"

Han Bingxue made a long sigh. "I have been enemies with this man for my entire life. However, at the end of his life, I respected him."

"No matter how vile and dishonorable he was…"

"For the last thing, he did…" Han Bingxue said, "He died like a real man."

Cha-Eun Xiao stayed silent. He didn't know what to say, he just made a long sigh.

He was an expert in cultivation, so he knew that Han Bingxue was telling the truth. If the enemy made himself explode to attack, anyone would be lucky to avoid getting hit. However, it would be easy to use that chance to know the enemy's reason for wanting to make himself explode.

In the last fight, when Wu Huitian got himself hit by the sword on purpose to restrain Han Bingxue, if Han Bingxue knew what he was going to do, there would be many things he could do to deal with it. The things that Han Bingxue needed to do was to make three moves. First, he should stab the sword deep into the enemy's body. Second, he should operate his power to break the enemy's defense. Third, he could hit Wu Huitian up to the sky when the explosion was about to happen and save everybody from the blast.

Han Bingxue should have done that if he wanted to let Wu Huitian die. However, if he didn't want to, he could have used an even easier way to capture Wu Huitian alive. All he needed to do was to break Wu Huitian's three acupuncture points—Dantian, Qihai, and Tanzhong. It would break Wu Huitian's energy shield and let out the energy he used to explode himself. Han Bingxue's movement technique was peerless in the world, and he knew what Wu Huitian was going to do beforehand. He could absolutely stop Wu Huitian and capture him alive.

However, Han Bingxue wanted to let him die as he wished, so he chose not to use the second way. Cha-Eun Xiao was so protective to his brother, which nearly got things out of control. There was no need to explain any further!

After a while, Cha-Eun Xiao finally said, "That was not Wu Huitian!"

Han Bingxue was shocked, but then he understood why Cha-Eun Xiao said so. He nodded and said, "That's right. He wasn't Wu Huitian."

"Wu Huitian is missing…" Cha-Eun Xiao said, "He has been missing for a long time… I am afraid that it would be difficult to find him in such a short time. Let's stop searching for him in the meantime. The Saint Sunlight Sect is gone. Wu Huitian alive or not doesn't really matter."

"That's right!" Han Bingxue's eyes glittered.

…

Somewhere between two mountains, it was far away from the battle.

The leader of the men in black clothes who luckily escaped the battle was looking at some other men who were also wearing black clothes, his mouth was bleeding, and his eyes were red. He then asked furiously, "Why? Why didn't you send me some back up? If you had came to help us, at least half of us would survive!"

In the shadow of the mountain, twelve men in black clothes were sitting quietly.

They all looked like ghosts.

At the moment, as they saw the man spitting out blood, they acted like they were not seeing him.

"Why?" The man in black clothes furiously shouted again.

One of the twelve men slightly raised up his head then stared at the man straight in the eyes. He blandly said, "Backup? Why should we help you?"

The man in black clothes was totally provoked.
