Chapter 58: The Death of Rika

  Xiao Yu was completely rescued, and as the leader of the Kaohsiung Mercenary Group, Shen Yushu was naturally very unhappy.

  Xiaoyu's reputation he had also heard of, a 13-year-old three-star swordsman, only one rank lower than Rika, and his talent was not inferior to Rika's. If Xiaoyu were allowed to truly grow up, then he would become the greatest obstacle for the Takao Mercenary Group.

  Just now Shen Yushu wanted to use the duel to completely get rid of Xiaoyu, but who would have thought that Haitian suddenly appeared again, naturally making him extremely unhappy.

  "Damn it, didn't you run away? How did you come out again?" Shen Yushu cursed with a gloomy face, the muscles on his face twitching, very intimidating.

  When Shen Yu's scolding reached his ears, Hai Tian's smile instantly disappeared from his face, and his eyes also narrowed slightly, emitting a cold aura all over his body.

  "Xiao Yu is my brother, I won't let you harm him!" Hai Tian said, pausing for a moment before shifting his gaze to Rui Ka beside Shen Yu Shu, "Since you want Xiao Yu to die, then I will never let you live!"

  Before his words had fallen, Haitian raised the Huoyun sword and rushed towards Rika's direction.

  The majestic sword spirit wrapped around the sword body, swooping towards Rika with a sharp gaze that frightened Rika to the point of complete paralysis, letting out a terrified scream.

  "Looking for death!" Seeing Hai Tian about to kill his most outstanding genius under his command, Shen Yushu naturally couldn't tolerate it.

  A cold glint flashed in his eyes, and he instantly blocked Rica's path. The surging blue sword spirit power formed a half-meter-high protective wall in front of him. A faint smile rose from the corner of his mouth as he didn't believe Haitian could break through his defensive wall.

  The protective wall flickered with a green glow, the Fire Cloud Sword of Haotian clashed violently with it, producing a deafening crash, and the entire earth seemed to tremble as well, causing all the swordsmen around to feel a shiver in their hearts.

  Blocked by the protective wall, Haitian was very unwilling in his heart, narrowing his eyes and gritting his teeth. The sword spirit power inside his body surged again, and he charged at Rika once more.

  "Boom!" The cyan protective wall in front of Huoyun Jian and Shen Yushu collided fiercely, the powerful sword spirit force emitting a deafening sound, but Hai Tian was still bounced back.

  Shaking off the sore arm, Haitian curled his lip and said, "The turtle shell is really hard."

  "That's right, with your strength, you're still far from breaking through my defense wall." Seeing Haitian fail to break through twice, Shen Yushu's face hung a triumphant smile.

  "Is it? Then take a look at what's in front of you before speaking." Ha Tian's disdainful voice suddenly rang out.

  Shen Yu Shu immediately lowered his head to look, and saw that there was a crack in the middle of the blue protective wall. He only heard a series of continuous sounds "Ka Ka Ka" coming from it, and the crack instantly expanded like a spider web.

  In less than one second, everything shattered and fell to the ground, disappearing.

  "How is this possible!" Shen Yushu's face changed greatly, after all he was a three-star swordmaster, the defensive wall he set up, without the strength of a swordmaster it would be impossible to break through.

  But Haitian broke his idea, heavily colliding twice, and forced his proud defensive wall to shatter completely. Could this kid in front of him be a sword master? How is that possible!

  Haitian's action of breaking through Shen Yu's defensive wall immediately shocked all the swordsmen present, and even Xike was no exception.

  If Hai Tian has the ability to break Shen Yu's book, then he also has the ability to break his. At such a young age, having such strength is really too frightening.

  Upon second thought, Xī Kè couldn't help but smile. Hǎi Tiān was the younger brother of Xiǎo Yǔ, so they should be on the same side as the Ice and Fire Mercenary Corps. The ones to worry about were actually the Gāo Xióng Mercenary Corps.

  "Come on, Tian Ge! Add oil!" Although Xiaoyu didn't know why Haitian became so strong, Haitian's victory was his own victory. How could he not help Haitian add oil?

  "Kid, just how many stars is your swordsmanship? Have you broken through to Sword Master?" Shen Yushu asked with a gloomy face, Hai Tian's strength was too terrifying, clearly he didn't have that kind of power, but he still managed to break through his defensive wall that even a Sword Master might not be able to breach.

  Everyone present immediately fell silent when they heard Shen Yushu's question. Given Hai Tian's age, he was definitely under fifteen years old, but he had such a shocking strength, and they also wanted to know what Hai Tian's true strength was like.

  Seeing everyone looking at him, Hai Tian didn't feel the slightest bit of discomfort, but instead looked coldly at Shen Yushu not far away: "What? You're very curious?"

  Shen Yu nodded silently, and Hai Tian was indeed too mysterious. He really wanted to know Hai Tian's true strength.

  "I'll tell you, I've just broken through to the Seven-Star Swordsman." With enough confidence, Haitian didn't hide his true strength. Even if a great swordsman at the Master Sword level came, he could still run away even if he couldn't beat him.

  Speaking of great swordsmen, Hai Tian couldn't help but think of the three great swordsmen from the Shumiya family. If he hadn't accidentally learned the flying sword technique, he would have probably fallen already.

  But to be honest, the main reason for breaking through Shen Yu's defensive wall was still relying on Huoyun Sword.

  "Seven Star Swordsman?" Although he had already mentally prepared himself, Shen Yushu was still shocked when he heard Hai Tian's words. He turned his head to glance at Rui Ka, who was lowering her head in silence, and couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions - both were geniuses, so why was the gap between them so huge?

  It wasn't just Shen Yu who was shocked, everyone present was extremely surprised. Hai Tian's appearance and youthful energy had already indicated that he was not very old, but to have the strength of a Seven Star Swordsman at such an age was truly astonishing.

  Especially those who are older than Hai Tian but have not reached the level of a Seven Star Swordsman, hang their heads in shame, it seems that all these years of cultivation have been wasted on dogs.

  "After a brief surprise, Shen Yushu asked again: 'How old are you this year?'"

  "Tian Ge is thirteen years old this year!" Before Hai Tian could open his mouth, Xiao Yu had already darted out to answer.

  His words caused a burst of exclamations from the crowd, for a 13-year-old Seven Stars Swordsman was unprecedented not just elsewhere but within their entire Wushan Province.

  Not far away, Rica continuously heard about Haitian's true strength and age, and was greatly shocked in her heart. In the past, she was extremely proud of herself, but now she couldn't compare with Haitian at all.

  He raised his head to look at Haitian, and suddenly found that Haitian was also staring at him, with a cold and murderous gaze in his eyes. Rika's heart trembled, and a thread of fear rose up. No wonder he wasn't Haitian's match at all.

  "Are you sure you still want to protect him?" Haitian's gaze remained fixed on Rika, he had sworn an oath that anyone who dared to harm Xiaoyu would absolutely not be let off!

  Shen Yu's book also saw the eyes of Hai Tian, and immediately shouted: "Wait a minute, what do you mean by this?"

  "It doesn't matter, he just has to die!" As soon as Haotian's voice fell, his figure immediately charged forward.

  Shen Yu didn't expect Hai Tian to dare say such a thing, and he couldn't help but laugh in anger: "You little brat, don't think that just because you have three parts of dye, you can open a dye shop. Your strength is indeed not bad, but can you defeat me, a three-star sword master? If you have the ability, come on!"

  "Be careful, Tian Ge!" Although he had great confidence in Hai Tian, Shen Yushu's strength was also extremely powerful.

  However, Hai Tian did not stop his movements at all, and his body suddenly rushed towards Shen Yushu.

  At this time, Shen Yu also made battle preparations. Although Hai Tian's strength brought him too many surprises, Hai Tian was still too young and his strength was far inferior to his. He also had the confidence to completely solve Hai Tian!

  "Come on, come on! Let me see the true strength of this genius!" Shen Yushu excitedly roared.

  Just as Haitian was about to come into contact with Shen Yushu, suddenly, Haitian's figure completely disappeared, leaving everyone in the scene stunned. This had happened earlier too.

  "What about the others? Where have they gone?" Shen Yushu exclaimed in surprise, he immediately thought of behind him, turned his head to look back, but only saw a stunned Rika, and did not see any sign of Haitian.

  Like a conditioned reflex, Jian Shi immediately released his grip. But what made Shen Yushu cry was that he still couldn't find Hai Tian's figure, as if he had completely evaporated from the world.

  Suddenly, a figure burst out from the left underground, it was Haitian. The fiery long sword flashed with surging sword spirit power, and with a thunderous momentum, it stabbed towards Rika behind Shen Yushu.

  "Not good!" Feeling the fiery energy coming from behind him, Shen Yushu's face changed greatly as he immediately shouted: "Not good! Ruika, quickly dodge!"

  At this time, Rika had no ability to dodge, staring blankly as Haitian's Huoyun sword continued to fall.

  Only a crisp sound of entry was heard, and Rika spat out a mouthful of thick blood: "Pfft!"

  "Bastard! I'm going to kill you!" Seeing Rika's chest being pierced by Haitian's Huoyun sword, Shen Yushu went crazy and shouted loudly.

  A powerful sword spirit energy suddenly condensed in his palm and was swung fiercely towards the sea and sky.

  After gaining the upper hand, Haitian no longer lingered and kicked Rika's body with force from under his feet. Using the counterforce to avoid Shen Yushu's inevitable blow, he directly fell to the ground and disappeared again in an instant.

  "Ah——how could this be?" Seeing Rika slowly falling down, and not being able to attack Haitian, Shen Yushu was almost driven mad. Under his powerful protection, Haitian had actually snatched away Rika's life from his hands, a three-star swordsman, and in front of so many team members, it was not only a blow to his face, but also a severe blow to his prestige!

  After pulling away from Shen Yu, Hai Tian immediately retreated and slipped out beside Xiao Yu.

  "Tiān Gē? Tiān Gē, are you alright?" Seeing Hǎi Tiān appear by her side, Xiǎo Yǔ immediately exclaimed with surprise and delight, just a moment ago, she was extremely worried.

  Haitian took a few deep breaths and gave Xiaoyu a triumphant smile. He was fine, just that the sword spirit's energy consumption had been a bit too much.

  Bloodstained clothes, icy face, and a Flame Cloud Sword in hand - the Sea and Sky have given birth to a killing god!

  Everyone present worried about their own lives, because they all understood that even under the protection of their squad leader, Haitian took their lives as easily as taking things out of a pocket.

  Reika's death is the best example.

  Shock and fear appeared in everyone's eyes.
