He completely ignored Bai Qiuran. As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Chen ended his life with a single strike. Everyone present could clearly see that even in death, Bai Qiuran still had a smile that hadn't fully bloomed on his face.
Perhaps even Bai Qiuran felt that his life was no longer in danger when he saw Xuanyuan Baizhan. After all, who would have thought that Xiao Chen would actually dare to kill Bai Qiuran right in front of Xuanyuan Baizhan?
Unfortunately, that was the truth. Xiao Chen didn't hesitate at all when facing Xuanyuan Baizhan. He didn't hesitate at all, nor was he conflicted or fearful. He killed Bai Qiuran in an extremely straightforward manner.
The surrounding disciples were stunned by such an outcome. Xuanyuan Baizhan was stunned as well. However, after a short moment of blankness, rage surged within Xuanyuan Baizhan's heart. He glared at Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen instantly felt a tremendous pressure when Bai Qiuran locked onto him.
Although they hadn't fought yet, and Xuanyuan Baizhan hadn't revealed too much of his terrifying aura, Xiao Chen was certain that Xuanyuan Baizhan and Bai Qiuran weren't on the same level. The difference between the two of them wasn't like the difference between clouds and mud, but at the very least, there was a huge gap between them.
It was like being stared at by a furious beast. It was a very uncomfortable feeling. However, Xiao Chen still raised his head and fearlessly met Xuanyuan Baizhan's gaze.
Their eyes met, and Xuanyuan Baizhan's voice became extremely cold. "Didn't you hear me when I told you to stop?"
"Heh, didn't you see that I was going to kill him?" Xiao Chen refused to back down.
Xuanyuan Baizhan had made it clear that he wanted to protect Bai Qiuran, but Xiao Chen had actually killed him with a single strike of the sword. Xuanyuan Baizhan didn't even have the time to react. Of course, it was also because Xuanyuan Baizhan was too careless. Or perhaps, Xuanyuan Baizhan had never imagined that someone amongst the younger generation of the human race would actually dare to go against his will.
As the emperor of the younger generation, Xuanyuan Baizhan felt that his dignity was being challenged. Not only did he kill Bai Qiuran, but Xiao Chen also didn't give him any face when talking to him. Xuanyuan Baizhan didn't know how many years it had been since he heard such words.
Killing intent gathered in his eyes. However, at this moment, Yin-yangzi and the Old Servant appeared in the sky. At the same time, several half-step Great Saints of the Taiyang Sect also appeared one after another. There were a total of eight of them.
Aside from Yin-yangzi, the eight of them were all half-step Great Saints. As soon as the eight of them appeared, Yin-yangzi took the initiative to look at Xuanyuan Baizhan.
"Xuanyuan Baizhan, let's end this matter here. Xiao Chen and Bai Qiuran agreed on a life-and-death battle. It's against the rules for outsiders to interfere."
Yin-yangzi immediately spoke up for Xiao Chen. Of course, this was normal. After all, Xiao Chen was a disciple of the Taiyang Sect, while Xuanyuan Baizhan wasn't. Yin-yangzi would definitely side with Xiao Chen.
As The Great Sage, since Yin-yangzi had spoken, this matter should have ended. After all, who would dare to oppose the words of a The Great Sage?
But after hearing those words, Xuanyuan Baizhan looked at Xiao Chen with a cold expression and sneered.
"Is this what you're relying on? Do you think that with the experts of the Taiyang Sect here, I can't do anything to you? "
Xuanyuan Baizhan thought that Xiao Chen was relying on the protection of Yin-yangzi and the others. This was simply laughable. Without waiting for Xiao Chen's reply, Xuanyuan Baizhan first said to the four experts of the Xuanyuan Family beside him, "You don't have to do anything."
Then, he looked at Yin-yangzi and casually bowed. Then, he said indifferently, "Senior, you haven't forgotten the rules of the Saint Ranking, right?"
First, he told his four experts not to do anything. Then, he mentioned the rules of the Saint Ranking. Hearing this, Yin-yangzi's expression didn't change, as if he didn't care about Xuanyuan Baizhan's attitude at all. He smiled and said, "Of course I know."
"That's good." Hearing this, Xuanyuan Baizhan smiled and quickly turned his gaze to Xiao Chen. At the same time, he slowly descended onto the arena. As for the formation protecting the arena, it could be said that Xuanyuan Baizhan had easily broken it.
He had easily destroyed the formation that could withstand the battle between Xiao Chen and Bai Qiuran. Just this alone was enough to prove Xuanyuan Baizhan's strength.
He slowly landed in front of Xiao Chen. The two of them faced each other. At this moment, Xiao Chen felt even more pressure.
He wasn't in a hurry to attack. In Xuanyuan Baizhan's opinion, Xiao Chen wasn't a threat at all. Therefore, Xuanyuan Baizhan smiled and looked coldly at Xiao Chen.
"You should be new to the Saint Ranking. Perhaps you don't know the rules of the Saint Ranking. Today, I'll tell you the truth. On the Saint Ranking, even if you have The Great Sage protecting you, if you don't have the strength, only death awaits you."
Xuanyuan Baizhan's meaning was very clear. Yin-yangzi wouldn't be able to protect Xiao Chen today.
Why did Xuanyuan Baizhan have such confidence? To put it bluntly, it was because of the special nature of the Saint Ranking. Due to the protection of the Will of the Heavenly Dao, even a Great Sage or Emperor couldn't attack a Holy Son of the Saint Ranking.
As a result, the older generation experts of the various clans naturally had some unwritten rules. Once it involved a battle between the Chosen on the Hallowed Rankings, then no matter who it was, the older generation experts couldn't interfere. Life and death were up to fate, and it all depended on the strength of these little fellows.
In other words, if Xuanyuan Baizhan wanted to attack Xiao Chen, Yin-yangzi and the others couldn't interfere. Whether or not Xiao Chen could survive Xuanyuan Baizhan's attack would depend on his own ability.
The Saint Ranking could be considered an independent battlefield that stood above the 100 clans. However, the people on this battlefield were all the young geniuses of the various clans.
The strength of the power behind those who were ranked on the Saint Ranking wasn't really important. Because even if you had a powerful background, so what? In any case, the older generation experts couldn't attack a Chosen on the Saint Ranking. This was a rule of the Will Of The Heavenly Way, and no one could violate it. So, the most important thing on the Saint Ranking was still strength. Everything depended on strength.
A wisp of a mocking expression flashed through Xuanyuan Baizhan's eyes as he looked coldly at Xiao Chen. It felt like a cat playing with a mouse. However, Xiao Chen's expression didn't change at all when faced with Xuanyuan Baizhan's enormous pressure. He had to kill Bai Qiuran, but he wasn't courting death or making a fool of himself. Xiao Chen was confident in his ability to deal with Xuanyuan Baizhan.
So, after hearing Xuanyuan Baizhan's words, Xiao Chen slowly turned his gaze towards the high platform. Xuanyuan Baizhan sneered when he saw that.
"What? Do you think there's anyone who can save you now? Could it be that you think Yun Kunyao from the Yin and Yang Sects can stop me? "
