It was only a straight line attack, but Ye Chen was still not satisfied. He pushed his soul power, and his sword finger drew an arc in the air before pulling back.
Shoo!
The emerald light was the same as Ye Chen's sword finger. After drawing an arc in the air, it pierced through the fake mountain for the second time. Its speed was so fast that it was only a little bit slower than a straight line attack.
Then, Ye Chen's sword finger kept on moving. The emerald light pierced through the fake mountain from different angles. No one knew how many times it had pierced through. Eventually, the fake mountain that looked like a hornet's nest could not handle the huge weight anymore, and collapsed immediately.
"Come back!"
Ye Chen pulled his sword finger back, and the emerald light turned into a sword, which was put back into the scabbard.
"My soul power is five times more powerful than normal people. I have only trained the defensive sword spell to the first level, and I have already reached the second level. Plus, my flying speed is even faster than Situ Hao's second level, and my attacking power is even more powerful. I can basically control it like my own arm."
If Situ Hao saw Ye Chen controlling the flying sword, he would definitely be shocked. If the first level was already better than his second level, then wouldn't the second level be even better?
"However, the first level is still the first level after all. Controlling the flying sword is still a bit stiff, and the turning is not natural enough. If I encounter a top warrior, I would be easily found out."
After thinking about it, Ye Chen decided not to train the second level for now. His soul power was very powerful, and there was still room for improvement in the first level. When he reached the point where he could no longer make any progress, then he would train the second level of the defensive sword spell. The effect should be much better then.
A couple of days had passed, and Ye Chen was improving every day. He had to admit that the defensive sword spell seemed to have been created just for him. With his powerful soul power, training the defensive sword spell was just a little bit harder than eating or drinking. Of course, this was only the first level, and the second level would probably not be this easy.
On this day, four young girls came to the Ye family.
The girl on the left was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. She was wearing a green dress and had a longsword on her waist. She looked very pretty, and her eyes were like cold stars. Looking closely, she even looked a bit similar to Ye Chen. Normally, people who looked a bit similar should be related by blood. The girl in green was none other than Ye Chen's fourth uncle's daughter, Ye Xuan.
Ye Chen's father, Ye Tianhao, and his fourth uncle Ye Wenhao already looked fifty to sixty percent similar. Therefore, their names were only one word apart. As the fourth uncle's daughter, it was not strange for Ye Xuan to look a bit similar to Ye Chen.
Ye Xuan had reached the Astral Reaching Realm last year, and was the fourth person in the Ye family to reach the Astral Reaching Realm. The first one was Ye Chen, and the second and third were his parents. Before Ye Chen's rise, Ye Xuan was the No.1 martial genius of the Ye family, so it was natural for her to have this achievement.
The three young women walking next to Ye Xuan were all around twenty-five years old. The first one on the right was a woman in red. She had a beautiful face and a sexy body. There was a black whip wrapped around her waist, and when she walked, her body swayed in the wind, which was quite eye-catching.
The second one on Ye Xuan's right was not as pretty as Ye Xuan and the girl in red, but she looked extra pretty. Her eyebrows were curved, and her eyes were watery. The first impression that she gave people was that she wanted to protect her, and not let her suffer even a little bit, as if it would be a huge sin to let her suffer.
The third one was not any weaker than Ye Xuan in terms of appearance. She looked a bit cold, but there was also a bit of arrogance in that coldness. She was the tallest one among the four, and had a thin willow sword on her waist. The scabbard was decorated with tiny gemstones, which looked very bright.
The first three were all at the Early Astral Reaching Realm, while the cold-looking girl was at the Mid Astral Reaching Realm.
"Ah, I wonder if I can see your cousin this time. I have been here a couple of times already, and as long as I can see him, I will be satisfied." The red-clothed woman was filled with anticipation, but there was a trace of nervousness in her expression. She was like a shy girl who was about to see her sweetheart. If someone who was familiar with the red-clothed girl saw her like this, they would definitely be dumbfounded. This was because in the eyes of outsiders, the red-clothed girl had always been spoiled and unreasonable by nature.
Ye Xuan shook her head helplessly. These three were all her good friends, and they all had special backgrounds. The girl in red was called Di Hongyin, and she was the princess of the Red Moon Nation, a mid-ranked country in the South Rudra Region. Her status was even higher than the head disciple of a rank 7 martial institution. The pretty-looking girl was Lan Cuicui, a young lady from a rank 7 family in the Sky Serpent Nation, who also had a high status. The one with the highest status was the cold-looking girl, Luo Baishuang. She was a top disciple from the rank 6 martial institution, the Sunset Martial School, and her cultivation was one small realm higher than theirs.
Among the three, she had met Lan Cuicui first, and the friendship between the two was very pure. As for Di Hongyin and Luo Baishuang, it was only because of Ye Chen that they started to get to know each other. But as time went on, after going through a couple of life and death situations together, this impure friendship started to become pure as well. Otherwise, Ye Xuan would not spend so much time with them and bring them to the Ye family as guests.
But of course, friendship aside, when the three were with Ye Xuan, they still talked about Ye Chen a lot.
"My cousin always goes to the Sky Martial Region, and every time he goes, it would be for a long time. Even I have only seen him a couple of times." Ye Xuan was not at home all the time, so she rarely saw Ye Chen.
"The Sky Martial Region is a holy place for all the martial geniuses. Normal martial geniuses would not even have the right to go there. But, your cousin is even more powerful. He is the no.1 warrior just below the top five young warriors. He is the only young warrior in the master level warrior ranking besides the top five young warriors." Di Hongyin could not help but think about it. If she knew that Ye Chen had already beaten Lu Shaoyou, and Xia Houzun had indirectly beaten Xiao Chuhe, she would probably go crazy.
Lan Cuicui blushed and said in a small voice, "Ye Xuan, can you take us to your cousin's yard for a look?"
"No."
Ye Xuan rejected right away. In the Ye family, which one of them did not see Ye Chen as a legend? She was both respectful and scared of Ye Chen, so she would not dare to bring anyone into Ye Chen's yard.
"But, I can take you to the Wind Pavilion. You can see my cousin's yard from there." Ye Xuan said again.
"Alright! Take us there now!"
Di Hongyin said eagerly.
The Wind Pavilion was one of the tallest buildings in the Ye family. It could look over half of the entire Ye family. Ye Chen's yard was the biggest in the Ye family. It was covered in green trees, blocking most of the buildings and bedrooms. However, the lake and the open space next to it were not blocked at all.
Tap! Tap!
Tap! Footsteps were heard as Ye Xuan and the other three arrived at the ninth floor of the pavilion.
"That is my cousin's yard." Ye Xuan walked to the wide window and pointed at Ye Chen's yard.
Strangely, the four suddenly quieted down, not even daring to breathe.
In Chen Xi's field of vision, a blue clothed young man was cultivating a unique sword technique at the side of the lake. With a point of his sword, an emerald green ray of light shot out, and it fluttered and circled in the sky above the lake before drawing out a myriad of strands of light that were extremely beautiful and swift.
This young man looked even younger than them, just in his early twenties. But, everyone who had seen his picture would know that this was Ye Chen. He was twenty-six years old this year, and the reason why he looked so young was because he had reached the Astral Reaching Realm when he was nineteen and reached the Seas of Souls Realm when he was twenty-four. His appearance had been stagnant for many years, as if time could not do anything to him.
"Your cousin is at home!"
Di Hongyin covered her mouth while Lan Cuicui and Luo Baishuang's breathing increased.
"Yeah!"
Ye Xuan nodded dumbly.
To be honest, Ye Xuan and Ye Chen did not have much contact with each other, since they were always out. It would be luck if they could run into each other in the Ye family, and it would only happen two or three times a year.
Looking at Ye Chen from afar, Ye Xuan did not know what she was feeling.
Before Ye Chen's rise, her attitude towards Ye Chen was very cold. Although she was not as hostile towards him as Ye Tang and Ye Ming, she would not be too close to him either. Moreover, because of Ji Xueyan, her relationship with Ye Chen was very tense. Back then, she did not care, because she was the No.1 martial genius of the Ye family, and she was not on the same path as Ye Chen.
However, since then, Ye Chen had started to rise. During the family gathering, Ye Chen shocked everyone and won the first place. At the banquet of the head disciple, Young Master Emerald, he showed his brilliance and defeated the stone man Shi Potian. Then, in the Heaven Dream Ancient Place, he shocked the whole world and became the No.1 martial genius of the nine nations, beating down the head disciple, Young Master Emerald, Young Master North Snow from the North Snow Martial Academy and the other martial geniuses. All of a sudden, Ye Chen became the king, and no one dared to compete with him.
If this was already shocking enough, then the next one would be a legend.
In the Hidden Dragon Rank competition that was held once every three years, Ye Chen had become a shining star. This star was even brighter than the sun, as he had beaten all the top martial geniuses that Ye Xuan could not even imagine. He had stepped on their dead bodies and reached the top, becoming the No.1 martial genius of the South Rudra Region. Just when everyone thought that Ye Chen would stop there, he had become one of the top young warriors in the South Rudra Region, just like Li Xiaoyun, Jing Aoxuan, and Chu Zhongtian. It was not over yet. In the new tea gathering, Ye Chen had finally won the first place, and had beaten the uninvited guest from the East region with his own power. Since then, Ye Chen had become known by everyone in the South Rudra Region. He had become the leader of the martial geniuses, the legend of the whole South Rudra Region.
It was as if he would not give up until he scared people to death. What had happened before seemed to be just small fights for Ye Chen, and the stage was not big enough for him. He had come to the Sky Martial Region as the No.1 warrior of the young generation in the South Rudra Region, starting a new journey and beginning a glorious life. In just a couple of years, he had become the No.1 warrior just below the top five young warriors. He had become one of the most famous martial geniuses of the whole True Spirit Continent. His fame could no longer be described by one region or one country, but by the whole continent, dozens of regions, and countless countries.
Right then, Ye Chen was no longer a legend, but a myth.
As a member of the Ye family, Ye Xuan knew better than anyone else that everyone in the South Rudra Region would want to get on Ye Chen's good side. Those rank 6 martial institutions were unbelievably powerful in the eyes of normal people, but a lot of people knew that as long as Ye Chen wanted to, he could destroy all of them in one night.
Everyone in the South Rudra Region was looking up at Ye Chen. He was not only the No.1 warrior of the young generation, but also the king of the whole South Rudra Region. Once the king was angry, everyone would tremble, including the top four countries, top ten mid-sized countries, thirty-six small countries, and countless martial institutions.
Because of Ye Chen, the Ye family and the Sky Cloud Martial School had a very high status in the whole South Rudra Region. A lot of royal families hoped that their children could enter the Sky Cloud Martial School and become their disciples. Some of them even wanted their daughters to marry into the Ye family, even if it was a son of a concubine. If they could marry a direct descendant of the Ye family, it would be a blessing that they had cultivated for eight lifetimes. Once they had a good relationship with the Ye family, all of the powerful forces in the whole South Rudra Region would give them some face.
Although the Ye family did not want to get involved with so many powerful forces, there would always be one or two exceptions. For example, there was a princess from a mid-sized country who married into the Ye family, and the little princess of the Windy Nation was also engaged to a direct descendant of the Ye family.
The appearance of Ye Chen had saved thousands of years of hard work for the Ye family. Even the older generation had to respect and fear Ye Chen at the same time. It was a change brought about by power. Even if they were related by blood, it would still be useless. Within the Ye family, only the leader of the family, Ye Tianhao, had the closest relationship with Ye Chen, so it would not be affected too much.
"Ye Xuan, can you introduce me to your cousin?" The cold and arrogant Luo Baishuang suddenly said.
Ye Xuan came back to her senses and shook her head, "Don't even think about it. My cousin already has a girlfriend, and you all know her. It is Murong Qingcheng."
"Then, I can be his concubine."
Di Hongyin was not willing to accept it.
Right then, Ye Chen pointed out his finger, and his longsword returned to its scabbard. He turned his head and looked at the ninth floor of the Wind Pavilion.
All of a sudden, all four of them stopped breathing.
