Otherworldly Affairs Office-Chapter 804: Bitter Struggle

A massive sword, as wide as three adult men's hands put together, pierced through the crack in the armor and pressed against the opponent's chest. No matter how hard Xia Yu tried, it couldn't go any further.

"Damn! Are your chests made of iron?" After several failed attempts, Xia Yu cursed, spread her hands, and smiled bitterly, "Gravity works on you, so I wonder if repulsion does!"

No sooner had she spoken than the three knights who had been grappling to resist the iron sword a moment before, were suddenly sent flying backward like baseballs struck with great force, along with the swords in their chests. After completing this move, Xia Yu bent slightly, letting her arms hang down. Under the influence of her ability, her arms glowed with a bright, silvery metal luster. She fixed her gaze on one of the knights, pushed off with her feet, and shot forward like an arrow from a bow.

As the knight reached the peak of his arc and began to fall, Xia Yu leaped to the highest point, twisted her waist, and hovered momentarily in the air. Then, with gravity enhanced by her abilities, she dove like an eagle targeting its prey, delivering a punch at the iron sword embedded in the knight's chest.

Boom! Two figures fell from the sky in succession. The impact made the ground tremble slightly, creating a deep crater where they landed, enveloping them in dirt.

Crack, crack, crack—that was the sound of the iron sword shattering. Under such a fierce impact, the hastily assembled iron sword finally couldn't take it anymore and broke into several pieces. Amid the sound of falling fragments, a man's voice came out softly, "Little girl, is this war game fun?"

"Monster!" Looking at the middle-aged man whose face was exposed after his helmet was knocked off, revealing a dent in his chest, Xia Yu jumped back, ignoring the blood he spat on her face.

"Monster? It's really ironic hearing that from you. The so-called monsters I've encountered before are nothing compared to your monstrous strength, Jiaheris! Has the era changed? Are witches so violent now?" The knight, who had been hit hard by Xia Yu, didn't continue to pursue her. As he stood up, repairing his broken armor, he smiled wryly at his companion beside him. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

"Bedivere, you must have been dead too long and your brain is muddled! Look at her hair and her appearance, don't you understand? She's a female cultivator from the Daoist Realm! Right, Boss?" Jiaheris pulled the giant sword from his chest and threw it aside mockingly.

"I think you two are fools. The power within this person's body is neither magic nor the primordial energy of the Daoist Realm. It's an entirely new force we've never seen before. It seems the world has become more interesting since we died, but what does that have to do with us?"

Boss turned his head to look at Lanloste, who was leading the other two knights in fierce combat with Ye Ruozai not far away. Shaking his head, he looked dissatisfied, saying, "It seems that the descendant of that annoying guy Lanloste summoned us. Let's quickly finish this battle so my soul can return to the Holy Light. Fighting under his command is nauseating and unappealing!"

"Don't say that! It's rare for us to return to the world of the living, and I plan to see how my descendants are doing. You should know that reviving us this time required a great deal of believers' faith power to nurture our souls; it's a rare opportunity. Also..." Bedivere, whose armor was fully restored, continued, raising his head to look at Xia Yu with narrowed eyes that suddenly turned serious. He said solemnly, "Reviving five Round Table Knights at once also indicates that the situation has reached an extremely dangerous point!"

"An extremely dangerous point? Who, this girl? Alright, I admit her previous strange moves were indeed novel, but that's all there is to it! Comparatively, I prefer that person as my opponent!" Jiaheris glanced disdainfully at Xia Yu and then turned to walk toward Ye Ruozai. However, just as he stepped forward, a flying sword whizzed past him, blocking his path.

"Your opponent is me!" Enraged by the enemy ignoring her and talking amongst themselves, Xia Yu controlled several floating iron swords, blocking the three men to assert her presence once again.

"Lady, don't seek trouble for yourself!" Jiaheris turned his head, casting an icy glance at Xia Yu, then looked up at the sky before sneering, "This should be a Sword Discussion Conference held by the Daoist Realm. Boss, you were right when you said during your lifetime that the younger generation after us would become less capable. Such a competition actually requires summoning us to resolve the battle."

Speaking, Jiaheris turned back to Xia Yu and advised, "Withdraw! I don't like bullying the weak, even less so when it involves a woman, and you possess both attributes. Spare yourself some harm by withdrawing."

"Weak? Hahaha, it's been awhile since someone called me that!" Jiaheris's seemingly sincere advice sounded like the most grating mockery to Xia Yu's ears—weak! This word seemed quite fitting for her current self, ever since she joined the competition, she seemed to be holding back the team.

In the battle with Alexia, the opponent's disgusting abilities caused her to falter, unable to provide effective support to Zheng Jia Ru, who had protected her. Now, was she going to be shielded by Ye Ruozai too? Why did she come to this competition?

Who am I? I am Xia Yu! I grew up in a martial arts hall, never losing a fight since childhood! Even Ye Ruozai, even the current Pei Yan, have to strive hard to surpass me!

The word 'weak' never belonged to me!

"Hah!" Enraged, Xia Yu roared and with a wave of her hand, countless longswords at her sides surged toward the three knights, her figure following fast like a galloping horse.

"Ah, troublesome woman!" Jiaheris sighed helplessly, raising his arm with a hint of impatience, and a light shield naturally appeared in front of him. As the sound of metal collisions rang out, the swords raining down struck the shield, only causing ripples but failing to penetrate it or cause Jiaheris any harm.

Thud! Xia Yu followed up with a solid punch to Jiaheris's abdomen, resulting in a muffled metal clang. The impact drove Jiaheris back more than ten steps. He then raised his head to look directly at Xia Yu, slightly surprised, saying, "Bedivere's assessment of you is not exaggerated. In terms of strength alone, you're the mightiest woman I've encountered. But only with this and those trivial tricks, you won't defeat us!"

"Ha! Let's see if it's me, a woman using trivial tricks, or you bunch of old relics crawling from the grave who can survive till the end!"
