280 Monthly Votes Added. Originally, I was going to write four chapters today, but as you all saw, the first chapter was a long chapter of nearly seven thousand words. I was also hesitant to write it that way, but in the end, I decided to write something logical. First, it was to pave the way for the ending, and second, I wanted to write an ending that could be logically justified, so it wouldn't be too abrupt.
Therefore, the first chapter would definitely count as two chapters. Including the next two chapters, it would be more than 13,000 words. Four chapters would not count as Old Sword's slip of the tongue. Let's continue tomorrow, with three chapters guaranteed. The plot is gradually unfolding, and the later chapters should be smoother and smoother. I hope that my brothers will support me. Old Sword will strive to finish all the chapters I owe by the end of the month.
.....
The imposing man suddenly flew to the center of the square, and the place immediately fell silent. A few monks wanted to stand up and stop him, but the White Lotus Saintess waved her hand and stopped them.
"What brings you here, warrior?"
The White Lotus Saintess was not at all angered by this intruder's intrusion. She calmly looked at the intruder and inquired. The imposing man sneered and said, "Of course I'm here for you. I'm only asking if you've received young master Tian Que's invitation."
"How is it? So what if I didn't receive it? "
Zeng!
The tall and sturdy man drew out the large saber on his back and said coldly, "Of course, hand it over if you receive it. Otherwise, my saber will not recognize anyone."
Hearing the imposing man's domineering words, the White Lotus Saintess frowned. She seemed to want to say something, but at this moment, a figure leaped down from the top of the city wall and arrived in the blink of an eye, standing between the imposing man and the White Lotus Saintess. The person who came was an elegant young master dressed in a silver brocade robe and holding a folding fan.
"Leng Duo? Is it the 'Tiger Blade' that challenged the eight leaders of the Nine Bends Chain Stronghold a few days ago? "
The young master closed the folding fan in his hand and looked at the tall and sturdy man with a smile. The tall and sturdy man raised his head and said proudly, "That's me!"
"Greetings, I am Yan Xihua."
That young master politely bowed to Leng Duo and immediately announced his name. Leng Duo's pupils constricted when he heard this. "You're 'Golden Body Iron Clothed' Yan Xihua?"
"Not bad."
Yan Xihua unfurled his folding fan and gently waved it in front of his chest. Leng Duo was clearly extremely fearful of Yan Xihua. He immediately said, "If brother Yan is interested in the White Lotus Holy Maiden's Martial Assembly invitation, I will naturally withdraw."
"That's not true. Since I, Yan Xihua, am known for cherishing flowers, it is only natural for me to admire and protect flowers. Since the white lotus is so pure and holy, I, Yan Xihua, will naturally cherish it. Let alone you, Leng Duo, even if the number one Nurturing Embryo Stage cultivator, Bai Daoxin, were to come here, I, Yan Xihua, would also want to compete with her.
With that, Yan Xihua completely ignored Leng Duo. He turned around and looked at the White Lotus Saintess in a carefree manner, like a saint of love.
As the two of them conversed, Wang Yan, who was standing at the city gate, had a strange expression on his face. Guibo asked, "What do you see?"
"This White Lotus Sect seems to have some strange tricks up their sleeves. If I'm not mistaken, that child from before had indeed gained a sense of Qi after drinking that drop of holy water, instantly establishing his foundation. This kind of method is truly unheard of."
Wang Yan was rather flabbergasted. He had originally believed that the White Lotus Sect was just putting on a show, but he never thought that there was actually something more to it. When he saw this, Wang Yan naturally thought of Bai Moli. If that girl had had such an opportunity back then, how much effort would she have saved?
"Do you want to find out?"
Guibo seemed to know a bit of the mystery, but he did not say it out loud. Wang Yan smiled faintly and said, "Guibo knows me well."
Wang Yan was indeed interested in the White Lotus Sect's method of arousing one's Qi. Apart from that, he also wanted to know about the Martial Symposium that Yan Xihua and Leng Duo mentioned, as well as the invitation and young master Tianque. As a result, before he even finished speaking, Wang Yan leapt forward with a tap of his foot. At this moment, Yan Xihua was still playing the role of a protector, while Leng Duo's gaze flickered. He took a step back, as if intending to retreat.
However, in the next moment, Wang Yan entered the scene and indifferently said, "Stop."
As soon as Wang Yan entered the scene, everyone immediately turned their heads to look. However, the White Lotus Saintess showed a hint of surprise when she saw Wang Yan. Then, a hint of joy flashed in the depths of her eyes, but she returned to normal in the end.
"May I know who you are?"
Yan Xihua asked in an unfriendly tone. He was extremely displeased with Wang Yan for ruining the atmosphere.
Wang Yan completely ignored him. He only looked at Leng Duo and said, "Tell me who young master Tianque is, and what do you mean by the invitation to the Martial Symposium?"
Yan Xihua immediately frowned when faced with Wang Yan's blatant disregard. He yelled, "Preposterous!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he closed the fan in his hand and shook it. With a few twangs, a few flying needles shot towards Wang Yan. At the same time, he used his Qinggong to fly straight towards Wang Yan.
Ding ding ding …
Wang Yan didn't even turn his head. He casually struck out with his palm, and several strands of sword Qi burst forth from his palm. With the sound of metal clashing, the flying needles were struck down one by one, and the remaining sword Qi shot towards Yan Xihua.
When Yan Xihua saw this, he was immediately alarmed. However, this person had some ability. He stopped and lowered his body, his muscles bulging under his robes. With a few muffled bangs, the Sword Qi struck his chest, but it didn't seem to cause any damage. Yan Xihua's face only turned red.
Wang Yan couldn't help but feel somewhat surprised. He could sense that Yan Xihua and Leng Duo were both players, and the Qi of players was completely different from that of warriors. Based on his past experience fighting against players, it could be said that players' usage of martial arts was a complete mess. Even Long Xiaoyun and Li Daohai, who were known as the Seven Absolutes, were only average. However, Yan Xihua's usage of martial arts was able to adapt to the situation. Although there wasn't anything particularly ingenious about it, it wasn't inferior to an ordinary warrior's. This was a level that ordinary players couldn't achieve.
Wang Yan's curiosity was piqued. He pulled out Falling Sand, and with a light tap of his foot, he leapt in front of Yan Xihua. He spun Falling Sand in his hand, and several sword Qi appeared. Soon after, countless sword Qi emerged from the sword Qi, and as they rotated, they shot towards Yan Xihua.
When Yan Xihua saw this, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes. Ripping sounds could be heard from his body as thick muscles tore through his clothes. Thick blue veins crawled all over his body like worms. At the same time, he struck out with his palms in all four directions.
Seeing this, Wang Yan couldn't help but reveal a strange expression. However, he still thrust his sword forward. Soon after, the sound of a sharp blade piercing flesh could be heard. Strands of sword threads pierced through Yan Xihua's body, which was as tough as metal. Then, the sword-light suddenly merged together, and a red dot appeared on his forehead.
Seeing Yan Xihua's bulging muscles retract and his body slowly collapse to the ground, Wang Yan immediately backhanded his sword and slashed at Leng Duo. A beam of sword Qi tore through the air. Leng Duo didn't expect Wang Yan to suddenly attack him, so he was immediately alarmed. There was clearly panic in his eyes, and he was also retreating. However, the hand holding the saber firmly pulled out the saber and slashed horizontally.
Clang.
When the sword Qi and blade collided, Leng Duo's blade was knocked out of his hand. Fortunately, he was unscathed. When Wang Yan saw that Leng Duo was able to receive his sword Qi despite being in such a sorry state and didn't suffer any serious injuries, he couldn't help but think to himself, Players have actually become stronger!
This discovery shocked Wang Yan. He didn't believe that Leng Duo and Yan Xihua were players like Bai Daoxin. It was clear that the two of them were only ordinary players, but their usage of martial arts was far superior to the players he had encountered before. Although they were at a loss and their moves were choppy and inflexible, the moves they used were all very similar. They were completely different from the players he had encountered before, so there was only one explanation. The will in the sky had bestowed upon the players a greater ability to use their martial arts.
Time stopped, the world went dark, and everything returned to normal. The players had actually become stronger overnight. Wang Yan knew that if the players he had encountered back in the Aojian Villa were at this level, he would have long since become a corpse.
