Chapter 461 Pursuers Appear Suddenly

For the past three days, he has been studying whenever he has a spare moment.

Strangely, he could understand about 70-80% of those obscure words and diagrams, as if they were already etched deep in his memory.

"Page nine, the Nine Revolutions of the Mysterious Heaven..." He turned to the page his father had specifically mentioned before his death and began to circulate his internal energy according to the diagram.

That warm current is now clearly perceptible, flowing slowly through his meridians with his thoughts.

Liu Wushuang appeared silently behind him: "You're going straight to page nine?"

Lin Han was startled and quickly closed the manual: "This was my father's special instruction before he passed away."

“No wonder…” Liu Wushuang said thoughtfully, “Most people start from the first page and proceed step by step. The Nine Revolutions of Xuan Tian are more difficult with each revolution, and cultivating all nine revolutions simultaneously is extremely dangerous. But you…” She suddenly reached out and touched Lin Han’s wrist.

Lin Han felt a cool sensation enter his wrist and quickly spread throughout his body.

The warm current within his body reacted immediately, gathering as if facing a formidable enemy.

"Interesting." Liu Wushuang withdrew her hand. "Your meridians are naturally unobstructed, especially the Ren and Du meridians, which hardly need to be deliberately opened. This kind of physique is one in a million, making it most suitable for cultivating the martial arts of the Xuantian Sect."

Lin Han seized upon the key phrase: "Xuantian Sect? The original owner of the True Scripture?"

Liu Wushuang seemed to realize she had let something slip, and turned to walk towards the corner of the room: "Get some rest, we have to travel tomorrow."

She took out a piece of dry food from her bundle and started eating it, clearly not wanting to continue the topic.

Lin Han, however, did not let it go easily: "You know the Xuan Tian Sect, you know my father, and you are very knowledgeable about the Xuan Tian True Scripture. Liu Wushuang, who exactly are you?"

Moonlight shone through the dilapidated roof onto Liu Wushuang's face, and her expression suddenly became unusually complicated.

Just as she was about to speak, a sharp whistle rang out from the distant swamp.

Both of them changed color simultaneously—this was a communication signal from the Qingcheng Sect!

"Impossible..." Liu Wushuang rushed to the window. "How could they have gotten into the swamp?"

Lin Han quickly put away the manual and picked up the Qingfeng Sword.

The whistle grew closer, accompanied by voices and the sounds of clashing weapons.

“At least twenty people.” Liu Wushuang’s ears twitched slightly. “Yu Canglang is personally leading the team.”

Lin Han's hand gripping the sword trembled slightly, whether from fear or anger, it was hard to tell: "Fight them!"

"You're courting death!" Liu Wushuang grabbed him. "At your current level, Yu Canglang could take your life within ten moves."

She quickly looked around. "Go through the back; there's a fishing village deep in the swamp. We can find a boat to leave."

Lin Han shook off her hand: "I've had enough of running away! My father taught me that a swordsman should only advance, never retreat!"

"Did your father also teach you to die?" Liu Wushuang said sharply. "If Lin Zhennan were here, he would definitely slap you!"

These words were like a bucket of cold water poured over Lin Han's head.

He gritted his teeth and finally nodded: "Lead the way."

The two quietly slipped out of the back door of the wooden house and disappeared into the thick fog-shrouded reeds.

Liu Wushuang's steps were as light as a cat's, and she didn't make a sound even when she was carrying a bag.

Lin Han tried his best to imitate, but he still couldn't help but break the dry branches.

Suddenly, several torches lit up in the fog ahead.

"Search separately! That kid must be nearby!" It was Yu Canglang's voice.

Liu Wushuang immediately grabbed Lin Han's shoulder, and the two of them squatted down by a puddle, holding their breath.

The torchlight drew closer, and Lin Han could even smell the sweat on the pursuers.

"Young Master, we've found footprints ahead!"

"Chase!"

As the footsteps faded into the distance, Lin Han was about to breathe a sigh of relief when Liu Wushuang's expression changed drastically: "A diversionary tactic! Let's go!"

Almost simultaneously, three crossbow bolts shot out from the mist behind them!

Liu Wushuang spun around and flicked her sleeve, drawing her slender sword and knocking two swords away. The third sword grazed Lin Han's cheek, leaving a bloody mark.

"Hahaha, it really is here!" Yu Canglang emerged from the mist, his face covered in blood, making him look particularly ferocious.

"The remnants of the Lin family and that vixen from the Xuan Tian Sect will be dealt with today!"

More than twenty Qingcheng disciples surrounded them from all directions, their swords flashing faintly in the mist.

Liu Wushuang shielded Lin Han behind her and whispered, "I'll lead the way, you follow closely, and don't linger in the fight!"

Before Lin Han could respond, she had already shot off like an arrow.

The slender sword drew several silver arcs in the air, and blood immediately bloomed from the throats of the three Qingcheng disciples at the front.

Yu Canglang was clearly taken aback by the seemingly frail woman's formidable strength and hastily retreated, shouting, "Form the formation! Pine Breeze Sword Formation!"

The Qingcheng disciples quickly changed formation, and seven longswords simultaneously thrust towards Liu Wushuang.

Her figure moved like a ghost through the sword light, and every time her rapier struck, someone fell.

But there were too many enemies, and her sleeves were torn in several places.

Lin Han was thrilled by what he saw, and his Qingfeng sword was drawn with a clang.

He circulated his internal energy according to the mental techniques in the "Mysterious Heaven True Scripture," and the sword tip immediately emitted a faint blue light.

A Qingcheng disciple launched a sneak attack from the side. Lin Han instinctively used the move "Stars Hanging Over the Plains," his sword slicing across the opponent's wrist. The man screamed and dropped his weapon.

"The Profound Heaven Sword Technique?" Surprise flashed in Yu Canglang's eyes. "Boy, what's your relationship with the Profound Heaven Sect?"

Lin Han was puzzled, but there was no time to think about it.

Two more enemies rushed at him, and he managed to parry them, but the impact left his hands numb.

These Qingcheng Sect disciples were all highly skilled, far surpassing the abilities of this inexperienced young man.

"Lin Han! This way!" Liu Wushuang had fought her way through and was standing in front of a narrow pier. The pier led into the depths of the swamp, where black water churned and the white bones were faintly visible.

Upon seeing this, Yu Canglang flew into a rage: "Fire the arrows! Don't let them escape!"

Arrows flew like locusts, and Liu Wushuang parried with her sword, but a few still slipped through the net.

At the critical moment, Lin Han's internal energy suddenly circulated on its own, and the red silk on the Qingfeng sword moved without wind. He used the move "Moon Surging in the Great River", and the sword light was like a curtain, which actually knocked down all the incoming arrows!

Even Liu Wushuang showed surprise at this.

But there was no time to hesitate; she grabbed Lin Han and said, "Let's go!"

The two stepped onto the pier.

The bridge had fallen into disrepair over the years, its wooden planks rotten and creaking with every step.

Yu Canglang led his men to the bridgehead, but hesitated.

"Young Master, ahead lies the 'Ghost Swamp,' and no one who goes in has ever come out..."

"Useless!" Yu Canglang slapped the man across the face, but did not continue to chase after him.

His chilling voice pierced through the mist: "Lin Han! You can't escape! The entire martial world knows you stole the Qingcheng Sect's most prized treasure; both the righteous and the wicked are searching for you! I will make sure you die a gruesome death, just like your father!"

Lin Han trembled all over, wanting to turn around and fight back, but Liu Wushuang held him back tightly: "He's trying to provoke you! Don't fall for it!"

The pier kept collapsing beneath their feet, forcing them to speed up.

Finally, before the last plank sank into the black water, they jumped onto a hard spot on the opposite bank.
