Li Beifei simply smiled upon hearing Tian Xiaoxiao's words. Ordinarily, given his personality, he would have retorted, but he was there to resolve the conflict, not exacerbate it. Since he was in the wrong to begin with, a little concession wouldn't hurt.
"Please!"
Li Beifei summoned the Celestial Pivot Sword and made a 'please' gesture, appearing incredibly proper.
"Hypocritical fellow," Tian Xiaoxiao muttered under her breath.
Tian Yuanyuan called out loudly, "Third Sister!"
"Coming!" Tian Zhengzheng responded. She took a step forward, and immediately, mysterious array patterns appeared beneath her feet. At that moment, the four sisters stood on the four cardinal directions, surrounding Li Beifei in the center.
"Young Master Li, be careful!" Tian Zhengzheng reminded him before forming hand seals, the others following suit.
"Buzz!"
Li Beifei felt as though he were in a special space, cut off from the outside world, yet he could still see the external scenery with his eyes.
An array formation, and a combined attack array at that!
Li Beifei cautiously surveyed his surroundings, Celestial Pivot Sword in hand.
"Young Master Li, we're about to attack!" Tian Yuanyuan warned again.
Li Beifei said helplessly, "Actually, you don't need to remind me. It just makes me look incompetent!"
"Vermillion Bird's Fire!"
As soon as Li Beifei finished speaking, a delicate shout rang out. Suddenly, a massive bird engulfed in flames appeared in the sky. It was the Vermillion Bird. With a cry, it spewed a scorching flame towards Li Beifei.
"Boom!"
The space around them began to crack like a spider web, unable to withstand the heat of the flames.
"Damn, attacking without a warning."
Feeling the intense heat of the Vermillion Bird's fire, the temperature of Li Beifei’s body rose rapidly. If he were hit directly by that fire, he would be severely injured even if he didn't die.
No wonder Teng Snake had to drop a few fragments to escape. These four sisters are truly extraordinary.
"Hehe, but you said not to remind you," Tian Xiaoxiao's smug laughter echoed in Li Beifei's ears.
"…" Li Beifei was speechless.
"Ha!"
Facing the intensely hot Vermillion Bird's Fire, Li Beifei swung the Celestial Pivot Sword, unleashing a sword beam.
"Rumble!"
The sword beam and the Vermillion Bird's Fire collided in mid-air, immediately erupting into a terrifying shockwave that blasted a massive crater into the ground.
"Not good!"
Suddenly, Tian Yuanyuan exclaimed in alarm. At the center of the explosion was the Starry Sky Ancient Road's teleportation altar. If their battle destroyed the altar, it would be a huge disaster.
"Fairy Tian Yuanyuan, no need to worry. That was personally refined by the old geezer!"
At that moment, Li Beifei's figure appeared beside Tian Yuanyuan. Instinctively, Tian Yuanyuan threw a punch, her fist manifesting a White Tiger's phantom, but it only struck Li Beifei's Celestial Pivot Sword.
"Oh, you're the White Tiger?" Li Beifei asked Tian Yuanyuan in surprise.
"That's right!"
Tian Yuanyuan replied.
The combined attack formation they were using was called the Heavenly Intent Four Symbols Formation, and she occupied the position of the Western White Tiger. The White Tiger was in charge of offense, the strongest in terms of attack power among the Four Symbols, which suited her personality perfectly.
The Vermillion Bird from earlier was Tian Xiaoxiao. Tian Xiaoxiao had a fiery temper, like a volcano, easily ignited. The Vermillion Bird suited her best.
The Second Sister, Tian Fangfang, was the Northern Black Tortoise. She was skilled at gathering battlefield information, but gathering information required time, so her defense was the strongest.
The Third Sister, Tian Zhengzheng, naturally held the position of the Eastern Azure Dragon. The Azure Dragon belonged to wood, representing the path of vitality. She was responsible for support and healing.
"Then I won't be polite!"
Li Beifei said, his sword intent surging. With a "boom," the Vermillion Bird in the sky was torn apart by his sword intent.
"How is that possible?"
Tian Xiaoxiao exclaimed in shock. The four sisters had similar cultivation levels to Li Beifei, but Li Beifei was able to tear apart her transformed Vermillion Bird with just his sword intent. Li Beifei's strength shocked her.
"So strong!"
The look of battle intent in Tian Yuanyuan's eyes finally revealed a hint of solemnity, but even more so, excitement.
Even Tian Xiaoxiao often called her barbaric, which showed how much she admired martial strength. The stronger the enemy, the more excited she became!
At that moment, Tian Yuanyuan felt her blood boiling. Her fair skin turned flushed due to excessive excitement and agitation.
"Kill!"
Tian Yuanyuan shouted, throwing a punch accompanied by a whistling sound, charging towards Li Beifei.
"Coming!"
Li Beifei shouted, also unleashing a sword beam, engaging in a fierce battle with Tian Yuanyuan.
"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!"…
In the sky, the two exchanged attacks back and forth. Tian Yuanyuan wore a pair of black gauntlets, her punches heavy, each punch seeming to shatter the space, unable to withstand the weight of her fists.
Li Beifei wielded the Celestial Pivot Sword, using the blade to block Tian Yuanyuan's punches each time. With each block, he could feel the power from Tian Yuanyuan's fist growing stronger and stronger, and her momentum also increasing. Initially, he could keep pace with Tian Yuanyuan, but now, she was vaguely surpassing him.
"The universe is vast, full of wonders. Although there are many geniuses on Tianhuang Star, one cannot underestimate the geniuses from other places," Li Beifei thought to himself. There were a total of three people on Tianhuang Star who could pose a threat to him: Senior Sister Honghong, the old geezer's descendant Gu Tianjun, and Bai Yifei's future wife, the Heavenly Eye Royal Daughter. Even Qin Shaoshang was slightly weaker than them.
He originally thought that after stepping onto the Starry Sky Ancient Road, besides these three, no one else could contend with him, but he received a lesson from Tian Yuanyuan today.
One must not underestimate the heroes of the world!
Li Beifei abandoned his underestimation, concentrating fully, his sword intent erupting again.
Traceless!
Li Beifei unleashed a sword strike—no sword qi, no sword light, no sword beam, nothing could be seen, but the sword intent that pierced through the heavens and earth shocked the four sisters.
"Hmm?"
The Second Sister, Tian Fangfang, who was most sensitive to aura, changed her expression slightly and shouted, "Sister, be careful!"
Tian Yuanyuan understood immediately. The four sisters were quadruplets, and they had already achieved telepathic connection. With Tian Fangfang's shout, she punched to her right.
"Boom!"
A loud noise rang out, and Tian Yuanyuan became the first person to successfully decipher Li Beifei's Traceless Sword Technique.
Li Beifei narrowed his eyes, surprised. Even his Senior Sister Honghong relied on her abnormal defense to withstand his Traceless Sword, but today, it was deciphered by Tian Yuanyuan.
No, it should be said that it was deciphered by the four sisters together. Each of the four sisters had their own special abilities, and it was the Second Sister, Tian Fangfang, who had shouted just now, so it seemed she was extremely sensitive to things like aura. No wonder she was able to chase after me all the way on Cangmang Star.
But he didn't just have that much strength!
It was time to show the results of being beaten up by the old geezer!
"Ha!"
Li Beifei roared, his aura soaring, forcefully pushing Tian Yuanyuan back.
"This is… Blood Qi Transformation!"
When the four sisters saw twelve divine rainbows appearing on Li Beifei's body, they were all shocked!
After Li Beifei was beaten up, he condensed the tenth Blood Qi Divine Rainbow. After more than a year of cultivation, he had cultivated two more, now having twelve!
