"Rumble!"
When Li Huantian unleashed his cultivation of Xiantian Fifth Stage, the Void trembled and the air exploded. He held the Flying Snow Sword in his hand and pointed the Xiantian Sword Qi at Ye Xuan.
"Sword One."
The Xiantian Sword Qi exploded. Li Huantian seemed to have transformed into a peerless Immortal Sword. When he slashed out, a monstrous sword light shot toward Ye Xuan.
"Sword Controlling Qi?"
"That's all you got!"
Ye Xuan's expression didn't change in the face of Li Huantian's sword light. A pair of sword fingers tore through the sky, and a blood-red heavenly sword condensed in the air. The blood-red heavenly sword even emitted the miserable screams of ghosts.
"Slash!"
Ye Xuan uttered a simple word. The blood-red Heavenly Sword buzzed violently and slashed toward Li Huantian with unparalleled power.
"Bang!"
There was a loud noise and the Void trembled. When the two forces collided, an extremely terrifying airwave shot out in all directions and instantly submerged the two.
Their eardrums buzzed and their vision blurred. No one knew what the result was.
After a full ten breaths, when everyone's vision became clear, they were completely stunned by the scene in front of them. It was as if they had fallen into a dream.
In the Void.
Ye Xuan stood with his hands clasped behind his back, looking calm. On the other hand, Li Huantian had already fallen to the ground. He held the Flying Snow Sword in his hand and looked uninjured. However, he looked at Ye Xuan with a dignified expression.
In everyone's imagination, Ye Xuan was no match for Li Huantian, the Peerless Sword Celestial from 100 years ago. Perhaps Ye Xuan would be turned into a cold corpse by Li Huantian's sword.
However, the truth was the opposite. Ye Xuan was not dead, but Li Huantian had fallen to the Void. How could they not be surprised?
"Senior Huantian, are you okay?" Nangong Tian's face was gloomy and he asked cautiously.
"Junior, you're not bad. You're good enough to be my opponent."
"Three days later, we'll fight on the top of the Forbidden City."
After Li Huantian finished speaking, he suddenly turned around and left the venue. Nangong Tian's expression was complicated. He didn't know why Li Huantian wanted to leave, but since his backer had already left, he could only glare fiercely at Ye Xuan and quickly follow Li Huantian.
In the Void.
Ye Xuan looked at the backs of Li Huantian and Nangong Tian. The corners of Ye Xuan's mouth curled into a playful smile. He didn't stop the two of them from leaving, and an unfathomable light appeared in his eyes.
"Mr. Ye, are you alright?" Azure Dragon asked anxiously.
"Do you think something will happen to me?" Ye Xuan lightly smiled as he walked down from the sky.
At this moment!
Everyone looked at Ye Xuan with respect. Tian Yu and the others had a complicated expression. They did not dare to look into Ye Xuan's eyes and quietly returned to their resting area. However, when they looked at Ye Xuan from the corner of their eyes, they were filled with fear.
Obviously, Ye Xuan's ability to block Li Huantian's attack had changed everyone's impression of Ye Xuan.
Tian Yu had no intention of capturing Ye Xuan. He did not mention that Ming Ye and the others had died in Ye Xuan's hands.
When a person was strong enough to be looked up to, the so-called rules were useless. Tian Yu understood this, so he would not risk his life.
If he provoked Ye Xuan into killing, wouldn't he die in vain like Ming Ye?
Tian Yu would never do such a stupid thing.
The annual meeting of the Wuan Bureau ended with a weak ending. However, Ye Xuan's reputation spread throughout the upper class of Capital City.
When the father and son of the Ye Family left, they were filled with regret. If they had not chased Ye Xuan and his mother out of the family, how glorious would the Ye Family be today?
However, there was no medicine for regret in this world. The father and son of the Ye Family could only leave with regret. Before they left, they instructed a servant to pass a note to Ye Xuan.
…
The luxurious car drove slowly on the road towards the Nangong Family's villa.
In the car.
Li Huantian was resting with his eyes closed. Nangong Tian was confused. He could not help but ask, "Senior Huantian, why didn't you kill him just now?"
Pfft!
All of a sudden!
As soon as Nangong Tian finished his sentence, Li Huantian spat out a mouthful of blood, staining the car window red. His rosy face turned pale instantly, and his straight body was trembling slightly.
"This … this …?"
Looking at the scene in front of him, Nangong Tian was at a loss for words. He was dumbfounded.
"What a powerful Sword Qi! What a hidden junior! This old man's illustrious reputation was almost destroyed by this junior!" Li Huantian opened his eyes slowly and wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth. His eyes were filled with viciousness.
"Sen … Senior … Are you no match for him?" Nangong Tian came back to his senses and asked in a trembling voice.
"If I'm not wrong, he must be at Xiantian Realm Lv Six. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been injured by his attack just now." Li Huantian clenched his fists with fear in his eyes.
"Then … does that mean that the Nangong Family will …?"
Hearing Li Huantian's words, Nangong Tian's eyes were filled with despair. If even Li Huantian was no match for Ye Xuan, wouldn't the Nangong Family be slaughtered by Ye Xuan sooner or later?
"Don't worry. Although his cultivation is slightly higher than mine, I've reached the end of my life. I can burn my Essence and Blood to have a final battle with him. Even a Xiantian Realm Lv Seven will die under my sword, let alone a Xiantian Realm Lv Six," Li Huantian said gloomily.
"But senior, if you do that, won't you also …?" Nangong Tian's eyes were filled with joy, but he still pretended to be concerned about Li Huantian.
"I have one more year to live at most. I've lived long enough. I can't let this junior ruin my reputation before I reach the end of my life," Li Huantian said coldly.
If it was said that Li Huantian had only attacked Ye Xuan in order to fulfill his promise, then it was completely different now. If he didn't kill Ye Xuan, then his reputation would be ruined if word of today's matter spread.
It was also because of this reason that before Li Huantian left, he challenged Ye Xuan to a battle to the death at the peak of the Forbidden City in three days for the sake of his reputation.
Even Li Huantian was no exception to the saying that false reputations hurt people.
He had only been defeated twice in his life, but both times he was defeated by the most talented people of his generation. If he was defeated by a junior 100 years later, he wouldn't be able to die in peace.
Burning his Essence and Blood to have a final battle with Ye Xuan would make the name of the Extinctive Sword Immortal spread forever. Even if Li Huantian died, he would be able to smile in the underworld.
However, was the truth really as simple as Li Huantian thought?
"Don't tell anyone about what happened today. Find me a quiet place. I'm going to fast and take a bath for three days. No matter what happens during these three days, don't disturb me," Li Huantian said and closed his eyes to rest again.
"Yes, Senior Tian," Nangong Tian replied respectfully, but there was a deep look in his eyes.
