Mo Yu's solemn expression immediately eased and he smiled faintly. "So it's Junior Sister Li..."
"I won't repeat my words a second time. It's up to you to choose, Senior Brother Mo." That voice once again resounded but faded completely after.
Cold sweat gradually beaded in the space between Mo Yu's eyebrows as if he was under increasing pressure. Xiao Chen raised his head to look far into the horizon but saw no one. However, he found the voice earlier to be somewhat familiar. It sounded as if it belonged to the girl he met by the little bridge.
"Give me back my sword!" Luo Shangyan said coolly.
Mo Yu clenched his fist so tightly that his knuckles creaked. With a flick of his sleeves, he sent the Unsullied Sword flying and the sword ended up stabbing the wall. Then he made his exit on his flying sword.
Luo Shangyan immediately walked to the wall to retrieve the sword and return it to Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen sneered while s
"What's wrong, Younger Sister?" Prince Zhao hastily walked over to Princess Zhao. When he grabbed her hands for a look, he saw a very thin cut on her middle finger. Purple blood was flowing out of the wound. "Sob... It hurts so badly. Why is it so painful..." Princess Zhao was in so much pain that tears were flowing freely from her eyes. Xiao Chen immediately walked to them. He clearly saw a wisp of black Qi rising from the zither string and entering Princess Zhao's finger. It was a very dense Death Qi! Of course, with the others' superficial knowledge, they could not see this Qi. He picked up her hand and immediately ushered energy into her body to force the Death Qi out. Stunned, Prince Zhao cried, "Y-Y-You! How audacious! Let go of my sister's hand at once!" Princess Zhao blushed and immediately pulled her hand away. "Oh, I apologize. I offended you in a moment of urgency. Do you feel a little better now, Princ
Moments later, Xiao Wan'er grinned. "Where are we going to play later, Cousin Brother? I heard a group of foreigners recently arrived in several of the nearby towns. I heard they put on great acrobatic performances." Xiao Chen did not respond. Suddenly, he heard a strange cry coming from the shopkeeper. "Dear God! You haven't paid, young lady!" "Put it on my account first! I'll come back and repay you!" "Oh dear. We run a small business here and shouldn't have credit systems..." Thus, the shopkeeper sent for two burly men to stop the green-clothed girl. The girl bellowed at them coldly, "Move aside!" When she finished her sentence, she flicked her sleeves. With the resounding of two clanging noise, the two burly men flew out and fell on the street outside. They were foaming in the mouth and twitching all over. Embedded on their respective chests was a serpentine-shaped needle emitting a sinister and cold g
Early in the morning on the next day, Xiao Chen was still planning to head for the Sky-gazing Gorge for his cultivation. Even though there was too little Spiritual Qi there for him, it was better than nothing. Just as he was about to set off, Luo Shangyan whom he had not seen for more than a month suddenly came to his door. "Senior Sister Luo!" Xiao Chen was overjoyed. Just as he was about to question her for not coming over for so long, his smile immediately faded after seeing the melancholic look on her somewhat sallow face. He presumed hat she was worrying over Perfected Immortal Zixu not returning after so many days. "Did your cultivation improve recently?" Luo Shangyan asked. Xiao Chen shook his head. "I'm still stuck at Lv 6 Qi Refining Realm. The Spiritual Qi in the Sky-gazing Gorge is insufficient for me." Luo Shangyan had long become immune to the speed of his cultivation progress. She said, "It's true that the
In the next seven days, Luo Shangyan took Xiao Chen to the Spiritual Qi Gorge every day and the latter successfully advanced into the Lv 7 Qi Refining Realm. He waited for a long time that day but saw no sign of Luo Shangyan. The three princes came instead. Their cultivation had reached Lv 1 Qi Refining Realm after working hard for several months and they had also found a place for themselves at the Sky-gazing Gorge. The gorge was no longer divided into north and south, only three colonies that they headed respectively. The three of them even divided their domains, which they jokingly dubbed "three-feet triangle". Yet another three days passed and Luo Shangyan was still nowhere to be seen. Xiao Chan could not help getting worried about her. He was afraid that something had happened to her. Today, when it was almost noon, Luo Shangyan finally showed up. Xiao Chen hastily ran over to her. Noticing her pale complexion, he asked, "You're injured? Who
In reality, not all Inner Disciples had the right to enter the Spiritual Qi Gorge. The Pro-disciples of the five Elders were the only ones free to enter as they wished. The rest of the Inner Disciples required a cultivation plate to enter and the plate was valid for a month. To obtain the plate, they must either use a large amount of Spirit Stones to buy it through connections or win on the battle platform each month. The crowd began to discuss in low whispers. "Did Luo Shangyan get beaten up on the battle platform so badly the other day just for this person?" "Toward the end of the battle, she looked like she had cast her life aside. She actually went and battled a Lv 6 disciple..." Xiao Chen clenched the jade plate in his hand and the rims of his eyes gradually reddened. How could he not tell that she had sustained grievous injuries? How could he cultivate here with a clear conscience... Mo Yu chuckled. "So what if he has a cult
A commotion immediately swept the crowd. The green-clothed man who came with Xu Hao frowned. "Junior Brother Xu, no matter what, this is the sect of Junior Brother Ouyang's fiancee. Speak politely." Xu Hao titled his head with a smile. "It's fine. It's just a little sect of the Human World." He then looked at Mo Yu. "What are you doing here still? I told you to call the Sect Leader's disciple to come up here!" Mo Yu clenched his fist so tightly that his knuckles creaked. In his entire life, no one had ever dared to speak to him like this. With a dark expression, he said, "Why do you have so many things to say? Have you thought of how you want to die?" He began making a chant incantation and an Immortal's Sword emitting a dense and cold radiance appeared in his hand. He promptly thrust the sword at Xu Hao. A gale immediately erupted. Mo Yu's Sword Qi was exerting a great pressure but Xu Hao merely wore a cold smile. The lat
Following the thunderous rumbling, two streams of Sword Qi collided and an earth-shattering power erupted. Countless cracks appeared on the battle platform in an instant, shrouding the place with smoke and dust that lingered for a long time. Below the platform, everyone had been shocked out of their winds for a long time. The astonishing sword had widened their horizons. It took them quite some time to recover their senses and when they did, booming acclaim resounded. Sweat was already dotting Second Elder's forehead and his breathing was quickening. That peerless technique was absolutely borne out of Three Pure Sect! It took a long time but the smoke and dust that shrouded the platform finally dissipated. The crowd saw Xu Hao clasping his chest with one hand. Blood was flowing out of the corner of his mouth. The sword in his other hand had been snapped off. Xiao Chen had also made his way back onto the platform. His face was deathly pale. He had exhauste
"Wait. Who said you can leave?" The boisterous atmosphere immediately became frozen after the cold voice resounded. Xiao Chen looked at the jade platform and said placidly, "I wonder what command you have for me, Elder?" The rest had also turned their stern gazes to First Elder. He looked grave and stern. His might was on full display despite not being angry. He said coolly, "Putting aside the origin of your swordsmanship, where did your Lv 7 Qi Refining Realm cultivation come from? Speak!" Everyone trembled while Second Elder frowned. Sure enough, what he was most worried about previously had finally come. Xiao Chen replied, "I trained hard and practiced diligently. Don't tell me that it's wrong?" Discussions sprang up among the crowd. They had neglected the most important issue in this whole affair. It had not been half a year since Xiao Chen entered the sect so logically, it was impossible for him to obtai
