Chapter 48 – One Against Seven
The disciples of the Myriad Immortal Sword Sect and Purple Cloud Sect sprinted into the sect grounds.
Rumble!
Li Guanqi’s eyebrows shot up in alarm as the massive city gates began to close. It was just as he had feared.
The Azure Dragon Island and Seven Strings Sect’s teams were closing in on him. Before the Seven Strings Sect’s disciples could reach him, dozens of hidden weapons shot straight at him.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Li Guanqi waved his sword in all directions, deflecting the hidden weapons with pinpoint accuracy.
The ten-zhang distance between them vanished in an instant. Seven youths surrounded Li Guanqi. However, Li Guanqi held his ground. He had reached the eleventh level of the Qi Refinement Realm.
With his impressive physique and precise swordsmanship, he was able to single-handedly hold off the group.
The leader of the Azure Dragon Island Sect’s team, a youth at the tenth level of the Qi Refinement Realm, glanced back at the rapidly closing gates. A mere ten zhang gap remained.
He shouted hurriedly, “Retreat! Retreat! Hurry! The doors are closing!”
All seven fighters immediately disengaged and withdrew several zhang away, flinging a barrage of hidden weapons and explosive grenades toward Li Guanqi as they fled.
