"Who cares? As long as there is a show to watch, it is fine. The three great sects are not willing to submit to anyone. This is a good opportunity to see the strength of the Heavenly Saber Pavilion and the Night Spirit Palace."
"The person leading the Night Spirit Palace seems to be the daughter of the Second Palace Master, Mu Yanxue. She is already a Medial Grade Martial Saint. Who is the person from the Heavenly Saber Pavilion? Do you know him?"
"I don't know him. He should have just left the mountain recently. He is probably here to participate in the auction."
Discussions rose up in the crowd. It was very lively; everyone was very excited.
Mu Yanxue pointed her sword at Xiao Chen. She said in a melodious voice, "This friend, can you stay here for a while? I do not wish to make a move."
Xiao Chen smiled faintly. He did not withdraw his aura at all. He said mockingly, "What are you staying here for? Waiting to die? If you want to keep me here, then show me what you are capable of. "
Mu Yanxue blushed slightly. She did not expect Xiao Chen to be so rude. She shouted coldly, "In that case, let me see what you are capable of."
"Pu ci!"
Right after the other party spoke, the four of them sent out a sword Qi each. They tore through the air and flew at Xiao Chen.
When Xiao Chen saw the sword Qi flying at him, he shook his head. Although the sword Qi of these four people were very powerful, they were not sharp enough. Compared to the two old men on the merchant ship, they were much weaker.
Xiao Chen used his palm as a saber and brandished it left and right. He did not move at all.
He executed the Dragon and Tiger Body Sculpting Art to its limits. When the sword Qi struck his arm, it gave off a melodious' ding dang 'sound. Xiao Chen used the strength of his physical body to block it.
The four of them were startled. They did not expect Xiao Chen's physical body to be so strong. They quickly gave up on using their sword Qi to attack. The swords in their hands released a blazing sword light as they hacked at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen knew that these four people were not trying to kill him. They were just trying to delay him until the Wang Clan experts arrived.
I can no longer hide my strength. I have to end this quickly. Otherwise, when the Wang Clan experts arrive, I will be in trouble. Even if I leave, it will be difficult for Liu Suifeng to do so.
Xiao Chen flipped his palm and the Lunar Shadow Saber immediately appeared in his left hand from the Universe Ring.
Xiao Chen placed his right hand on the saber hilt and paused for a moment. A sharp light flashed in his eyes. Xiao Chen infused his state of thunder into his saber, raising his aura and state to their limits in a short time.
In that instant, dark clouds churned in the sky above Liushang Pavilion. Muffled thunder roared incessantly; the might of thunder instantly formed.
Rushing Thunder Saber Art, Drawing the Saber!
Xiao Chen shouted and unleashed the state of thunder with all his might. A clap of thunder resounded in the sky. In the next moment, everyone seemed to see a bolt of lightning leaping out of the scabbard.
Bang!
The three people in front of them felt their vision blur. A terrifying energy swept over them, and they were immediately sent flying back. Electric currents coursed through the meridians in his body, and the sword moves in his hands were immediately thrown into disarray. He was unable to execute them.
Xiao Chen spun around and spun his saber around quickly. Even though he was the last to move, he arrived first and placed it on the neck of the person behind him. That person was caught off guard. The sword in his hand carried a blazing sword light as it hovered above Xiao Chen's head, not daring to move at all.
Xiao Chen smiled gently and quickly sheathed his saber. He stepped forward and sent a palm strike at that person's chest. With a loud bang, he immediately sent that person flying.
With no one blocking his way, Xiao Chen pushed off the ground and turned into a beam of purple light, flying towards the crack in the fourth floor.
Everything happened in the time it took for a spark to fly. From the moment Xiao Chen summoned out the Lunar Shadow Saber to the moment he made his move, it was only the blink of an eye. The situation immediately turned around.
The speed was so fast that no one could react. Someone below exclaimed, "What is going on? Are the people of the Night Spirit Palace so weak?"
Mu Yanxue suppressed the violent lightning-attributed Essence in her body. When she heard this, she became slightly angry and shouted. It was unknown what Movement Technique Mu Yanxue used, but her speed increased explosively in a short time. She immediately blocked in front of Xiao Chen.
Mu Yanxue looked at Xiao Chen and said coldly, "You are very fast. However, no one can be faster than me."
A sword light flashed and pierced towards Xiao Chen at lightning speed. Xiao Chen quickly dodged. After that, he spun around and pushed off the wall. Then, he turned around and hacked at Mu Yanxue.
"Dang!"
The saber and sword clashed, giving off a melodious clang that reverberated in the hall. The moment the two clashed, they retreated. They were extremely decisive. They were so fast that everyone could only see afterimages.
Two distinct figures in the air, one purple and one black, clashed continuously in the eyes of the crowd.
The Movement Techniques of the two were very good. They flew around the top of the third floor, using the walls as a foothold. Unexpectedly, they did not land at all; it was like they were really flying.
As the two exchanged moves, their speed was equal. Unexpectedly, they were evenly matched.
Being evenly matched was not the result that Xiao Chen wanted. The longer this dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for him.
Since the Blue Dragon Cloud Soaring Art reached Small Perfection, Xiao Chen had not met anyone in the same generation who could match his speed.
Mu Yanxue should be practicing a peak Earth Ranked Movement Technique. Furthermore, it was very likely that she had reached Great Perfection. Otherwise, she could not be so fast.
"Hu chi!"
Xiao Chen raised his speed to the limit and turned into a purple flood dragon. He roared ferociously in the air, but he still could not shake off Mu Yanxue.
That black figure was like his shadow. No matter what he did, he could not shake it off.
Strange, why does it seem like the Battle Sage Origins' Sticky Character Formula? Xiao Chen muttered to himself. Xiao Chen had experienced this before when he fought Leng Liusu.
If you were fast, she would be even faster. If you were slow, she would slowly slow down. She would not be shaken off by your sudden decrease in speed.
I have to think of a way. Since I have no way to gain an advantage in terms of speed, then I have to find another way to break through.
Xiao Chen shouted and found an opportunity. His body somersaulted in the air. He stomped on the roof of the third floor, and a large hole immediately appeared in the wooden floorboards.
Xiao Chen sent out a stream of energy in the air. His body nimbly flashed through the hole and reappeared on the fourth floor of Liushang Pavilion.
A raging flame started to burn in his right eye, and a huge ball of purple flames shot out of the hole under his feet.
Mu Yanxue, who was chasing closely, was startled when she saw the surging purple flame. She quickly dodged to the side.
"Bang!
Bang! "The flame did not lose its momentum; it easily burned through the floorboards of the second floor. It surged towards the first floor, scaring the customers on the first floor into fleeing in a panic.
After temporarily escaping from Mu Yanxue, Xiao Chen looked around and quickly found Liu Suifeng. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly discovered Chu Chaoyun standing on Liu Suifeng with a smile on his face.
Chu Chaoyun smiled faintly and gently placed his palm on Liu Suifeng's body. He said, "I'll send you off!"
Immediately, a huge but gentle force was transmitted to Liu Suifeng's body, and he slowly floated towards the window.
Xiao Chen did not have time to think; he jumped out of the window as well. Before he left, he gave Chu Chaoyun a puzzled look. He did not know why Chu Chaoyun helped him.
The two of them landed on the street. Liu Suifeng said, "What should we do now? Should we go back?"
Xiao Chen felt a headache coming on. He could not think of a way to go, and he did not know where to go. If he were alone, he could just change his identity and hide for a few days.
After thinking for a while, Xiao Chen said, "Does the Heavenly Saber Pavilion not have any power in Xihe City?"
As one of the three great sects, Xiao Chen did not believe that they would be afraid of an inherited Noble Clan. The two of them were not on the same level of strength.
If they really fought, in terms of combat prowess, ten Shi Clans would not be able to defeat the Heavenly Saber Pavilion. With the pure combat prowess of the Heavenly Saber Pavilion, they could easily destroy the Shi Clan.
Liu Suifeng smiled bitterly, "We really do not have any power in Xihe City. The Royal Court has very strict control over the three great cities in the nation. It is very difficult for the three great sects to infiltrate.
"In the city, aside from the City Lord, who has the greatest power, the three noble clans have the greatest power. So, we are not in a good position to do anything."
Xiao Chen glanced around and saw that Shi Feng, who had fallen to the ground earlier, had already gotten up and gone somewhere.
Actually, with Liu Suifeng's identity as a core disciple of the Heavenly Saber Pavilion, the Shi Clan would not dare to do anything to the two of them. They could only apologize and suffer some losses.
Xiao Chen's expression changed as he said, "Never mind, let's leave the city first. The auction will start in three days. We will find an opportunity to come in and take a look."
Liu Suifeng nodded. This was the only thing they could do. For now, they could not think of any better ideas.
"Dong!
Dong! Dong! "Just as the two of them were about to leave, the sound of rushing horses came from the road in front. A group of cultivators wearing the Shi Clan's uniform rushed over in an aggressive manner.
Xiao Chen stopped and frowned slightly. He thought to himself, The Shi Clan is extraordinarily fast. No wonder Shi Feng dares to be so arrogant in Xihe City.
The leader of the group was an old man wearing tight cultivator robes. He dismounted from his horse and looked at the two with a sullen expression. The old man slowly walked forward. As he walked, his Qi and blood flourished. His eyes were as sharp as sabers. Just by looking at his aura, one could tell that his cultivation was not low.
The old man said to the two of them, "Which of you injured my clan's Young Master?"
Before the two of them could speak, a young cultivator of the Shi Clan pointed at Xiao Chen and said, "Fourth Elder, it was the brat on the right who injured him. Many people in Liushang Pavilion saw it. Furthermore, he was the one who made the first move."
A bright light flashed in the eyes of the Shi Clan's Fourth Elder. It was like a sharp treasured saber staring at Xiao Chen. He said in a deep voice, "Can the people of the Heavenly Saber Pavilion bully my Shi Clan as they wish?"
"To think you dare to be so arrogant in Xihe City. I'll give you an explanation. If you can't explain it clearly, I will teach you how to behave on behalf of your teacher."
Liu Suifeng quickly said, "Senior, we did not mean to injure the Shi Clan's Young Master on purpose. He was the one who humiliated us first. We only …"
Xiao Chen raised his arm slightly, stopping Liu Suifeng from continuing. His gaze was as calm as still water. He met the old man's gaze without any fear, "There is no need to explain too much. It is just that our skills are not up to par. There is no need to say so much."
The Shi Clan was clearly being unreasonable. If they were being reasonable, it would be clear who was in the right and who was in the wrong by asking the people around them.
What was the point of saying so much nonsense? As for the so-called explanation, Xiao Chen found it laughable. They were clearly not in the wrong.
