Facing Chen Haiwei's inquiry, Chen Qinglian's eyes flickered slightly with fear.
But she quickly gathered her courage and said, "I, I believe in Wu Tian!"
Chen Haiwei chuckled, "Haha, women are indeed women, all brainless things."
"You should have called more people, maybe there would be some hope, but you're alone, how do you plan to deal with us?"
Wu Tian smiled coldly, "Then why didn't you think about why I alone would be enough?"
Chen Haiwei was slightly stunned, then said with a playful smile, "What are you trying to say with that?"
"Are you saying that our Sword Sect can't handle you alone? That's ridiculous."
"I'm telling you, this has nothing to do with you, and you'd better not meddle in other people's business."
"Swords have no eyes, if something happens to you, you won't even have a chance to cry!"
Wu Tian's gaze turned colder, "What if I insist on meddling?"
Chen Haiwei's face instantly turned grim, "Then you die!"
As the words fell, Chen Haiwei charged at Wu Tian with his sword.
The Qinglian Swordplay was a technique that emphasized skill, attacking with myriad variations, often making it impossible to discern the pattern.
And when the opponent was disoriented by this dazzling swordplay, it was the best time to attack.
The long sword moved in Chen Haiwei's hand, and suddenly it thrust towards Wu Tian's neck.
Wu Tian dodged by turning his head, and immediately kicked Chen Haiwei in the abdomen.
Chen Haiwei attempted to neutralize the blow with his internal energy, but as soon as his internal energy gathered in his abdomen, it was completely dispersed!
Instantly, he was sent flying backward.
He retreated more than ten steps on the ground before he finally managed to stabilize himself.
"How can this be!"
He said with shock all over his face, "How could you see through my moves!"
Just now, he had hidden his killing blow within multiple sword flowers, aiming to obscure his intentions and strike decisively.
But he hadn't expected Wu Tian to see through his attack so easily and counter with such a fierce blow.
Wu Tian looked at him coldly and said, "I advise you to go all out. If the chief disciple of your Sword Sect only has this much skill, then you'll really disappoint me."
Anger surged in his heart, and Chen Haiwei shouted angrily, "Don't be arrogant! I was just careless earlier, try again if you dare!"
After speaking, Chen Haiwei dared not neglect Wu Tian any longer.
He unleashed another set of dazzling sword flowers and charged at Wu Tian.
Most of his moves were feints, appearing dynamic and varied, but in reality, they were all meant to disrupt Wu Tian's vision.
The sunlight refracted by the long sword shimmered, making it difficult for Chen Qinglian behind him to see clearly.
But Wu Tian still appeared calm, letting Chen Haiwei change his stance around him.
Chen Haiwei's moves were a mix of true and false, false and true, making it impossible to judge when he would actually strike.
After flashing around for nearly a minute, Chen Haiwei felt that Wu Tian must have been dizzy.
So he found a perfect angle and thrust at Wu Tian's back!
But his attack suddenly stopped!
He was clearly attacking Wu Tian's back, but at this moment, he saw Wu Tian's face!
This meant that the moment he launched his attack, Wu Tian had turned around!
The long sword stopped just before Wu Tian's nose, and Wu Tian's expression remained as calm as ever.
He said, "Why did you stop? You've been flashing around for so long, isn't this what you were waiting for?"
Chen Haiwei was terrified by Wu Tian.
He stammered, "You, how did you know what I was going to do?"
"Impossible, this is impossible, do you have telepathy?"
"Telepathy?" Wu Tian shook his head, "To deal with your Qinglian Swordplay, you shouldn't need something as complicated as telepathy, just being quick enough with your reactions should suffice, right?"
Chen Haiwei was speechless for a moment. Wu Tian was right, as long as one's reaction was fast enough, Qinglian Swordplay could indeed be countered.
But the problem was that ordinary people wouldn't have such quick reactions!
And as he was lost in thought, Wu Tian had already grabbed his wrist and said softly, "It's best not to stop when you attack, otherwise, it's equivalent to giving the opponent an opportunity."
Chen Haiwei suddenly came back to his senses and shouted in a panic, "Wait, wait a moment! What are you doing!"
Wu Tian no longer answered him. With a surge of force from Wu Tian, Chen Haiwei was immediately pulled back.
Chen Haiwei lost his balance and stumbled forward several times.
Finally, he fell to the ground, face-planting.
Wu Tian leaped forward, stepped on his back, and said, "Were you going all out just now? It seems you've still disappointed me."
Being subdued by Wu Tian like this, Chen Haiwei was filled with fear.
He quickly shouted, "Master! Master, save me!"
The gate of the Sword Sect was suddenly opened, and then, a figure shot out from inside, his long sword thrusting directly at Wu Tian!
Wu Tian snorted coldly and flicked his finger against the sword.
With a crisp sound, the figure was immediately sent flying backward and landed on the ground.
Wu Tian looked over and saw that it was an old man.
This old man had white hair and beard, and was also wearing a long robe.
Upon seeing him, Chen Qinglian couldn't help but exclaim, "Grand Elder?!"
This was the Grand Elder of the Sword Sect, and also Chen Haiwei's master.
Seeing his attack interrupted, his face immediately showed surprise.
Soon, three more old men rushed out and stood beside the Grand Elder.
One of the old men quickly asked, "Senior Brother, what's wrong?"
At this point, the four elders of the Sword Sect were all present.
The Grand Elder glanced at Chen Haiwei, who was pinned under Wu Tian's foot, and said with a solemn expression, "Who are you, to dare trespass into our Qinglian Sect? You have quite the nerve!"
Wu Tian looked at him coldly and said, "You have more nerve, actually daring to capture the Sect Master."
"Aren't you afraid your Ancestor will come looking for you at night?"
The Grand Elder was taken aback, then he saw Chen Qinglian and said, "So you're the reinforcement called by the Medical Sect?"
"Chen Qinglian, this is ultimately our internal affair, yet you actually called an outsider. Have you no shame!"
Wu Tian chuckled coldly, "Shame?"
"Do you even have the right to mention that? Where was your shame when you kidnapped the Sect Master?"
The Grand Elder didn't want to argue with Wu Tian about this and changed the subject, "Insolent! Who gave you the courage to speak to us like this!"
"You'd better release my disciple quickly, otherwise, I will not forgive you!"
