In the end, as in the original plot, Yan Chixia injured Xia Houjie's shoulder with the move "Sweeping Swallows". The two stood with their swords and temporarily ended the fight.
"Brother Ye, do you think they're done?" Ning Caichen, who had watched a free fight upstairs, turned his head and whispered to Ye Xuan when he saw that Yan Chixia and Xia Houjie were just standing with their swords.
"It's about time. Judging from their sword moves, although they were sharp, there was no murderous intent. Obviously, they were just learning from each other. Since there is no deep hatred and the winner has been decided, it's naturally over," Ye Xuan explained to Ning Caichen with a smile.
"Hmm?" Ye Xuan didn't lower his voice, and he was only a dozen meters away from Yan Chixia and Ning Caichen. How could he hide his words from the ears of these two top-notch experts? Hearing Ye Xuan's evaluation, the two couldn't help but turn their heads and look at the two people upstairs with fierce eyes.
Seeing the two people looking at him with murderous intent, Ning Caichen was so scared that he almost turned around and ran. However, Ye Xuan didn't move in the face of the two people's imposing manner. He even nodded and smiled at them politely.
"I didn't expect there to be such an expert besides Yan Chixia in this barren mountain ancient temple!" Xia Houjie frowned and thought to himself.
Yan Chixia had already guessed that Ye Xuan's martial arts were not weak, so he wasn't surprised. He recovered a step earlier than Xia Houjie and looked at Xia Houjie, who was standing with his sword, and said, "Brother Xia Houjie, you and I have been fighting for seven years, and you have also lost for seven years. However, you are quite patient. Wherever I hide, you chase after me."
"Yan Chixia, I didn't expect that after half a month in Lanruo Temple, your sword has become sharper," Xia Houjie said with slight dissatisfaction.
"No, it's just that you wasted your youth. You are too ambitious and don't seek to improve. For the sake of the false title of the world's number one sword, you show off too much and harbor evil intentions. Your moves are erratic, and your fire is too strong. Your moves are strong but weak. " Yan Chixia looked at Xia Houjie and shook his head. He paused for a moment before reprimanding, "You have another bad habit. Your sword moves are fast but inaccurate."
"Yan Chixia, I'm here to spar with you, not to listen to reason with you. You … you …" Hearing Yan Chixia beating him and then complaining, Xia Houjie's anger rose as he glared at Yan Chixia. If he could kill with his eyes, Yan Chixia would have been killed seven or eight hundred times over.
"The two of you, as the saying goes, it's better to squash enmity than keep it alive. Since the two of you have finished your duel, why don't you put down your swords and use your love to move the other party? You should know that the universe is infinite, and love is eternal! This was a world of love, not a world of swords. Love is the most effective weapon. We … "Standing on the second floor, Ning Caichen originally wanted to persuade them to put down their swords, but the more she spoke, the more excited she became. Ye Xuan, who was listening by the side, couldn't help but be dumbfounded, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.
"Hmph, shut up. F * ck your love! " Xia Houjie, who was at the side, was already unhappy about losing to Yan Chixia. Now, he was even more unhappy when he heard Yan Chixia's nonsense. Now, even a scholar without the strength to truss a chicken dared to lecture him. Immediately, the evil fire in Xia Houjie's heart exploded. With a cold snort, he kicked the ground with the tip of his foot. Immediately, a stone as big as an egg shot toward Ning Caichen like a sharp arrow shot from a bow.
"Ah!" Looking at the stone flying toward him, Ning Caichen's pupils widened in fear. Then, he quickly closed his eyes. He couldn't dodge it, and waited for the pain on his face to come.
Pa!
Ning Caichen heard a soft muffled sound in front of him. Ning Caichen was puzzled. Why didn't he feel any pain?
When he opened his eyes, Ning Caichen saw the back of a slender and powerful hand in front of him.
"Brother Ning, are you okay?" Ye Xuan withdrew the hand that was holding the stone and smiled at Ning Caichen, who still had a frightened expression on his face.
"Uh, thank you for saving me, Brother Ye!" Ning Caichen said gratefully, knowing that Ye Xuan had blocked the stone for him.
"It's nothing. Brother Ning, you don't have to be so polite!" Ye Xuan threw the stone in his hand and looked at Xia Houjie with a faint smile. From the strength of the stone that Xia Houjie had kicked, Ye Xuan found that even if it hit Ning Caichen, it would at most cause him some physical pain. Although Xia Houjie was a little angry, he didn't seem to be a person who would kill the innocent.
"Hmph, a bunch of people who talk too much nonsense!" Xia Houjie snorted and glared at Ye Xuan, who was throwing the stone upstairs, and Yan Chixia, who was beside him. He put away the sword in his hand and turned to walk away.
Seeing Xia Houjie walk away, Yan Chixia put away the sword in his hand and turned to look at Ye Xuan and Ning Caichen upstairs. He said coldly, "You two, you better stay in the meditation room at night and don't run around Lanruo Temple. Otherwise, don't blame others if you lose your life!"
With that said, Yan Chixia did not wait for these people to react. He directly used his lightness technique and with a tap of his toes, he flew back to his side hall. After closing the door, Lanruo Temple regained its tranquility.
"Brother Ye, what did that bearded man mean?" Ning Caichen looked at Yan Chixia, who had closed the door and disappeared. He thought about what he said just now and had a bad feeling in his heart.
"I don't know either!" Ye Xuan still did not tell Ning Caichen about what happened in Lanruo Temple. Otherwise, with Ning Caichen's fright today, he really did not know if he would have the guts to go out later. "By the way, Brother Ning, didn't you say you were going to get water?"
Ning Caichen looked at the sky outside that had completely darkened. The chilly wind blew, and a chill went straight to his heart, causing goosebumps to rise all over his body. He shook his head and said, "Forget it, I'll make do for one night!"
"Oh, in that case, Brother Ning, go back to your room and rest first. I'm going out for a while and will be back soon!"
After Ye Xuan finished speaking, he did not wait for Ning Caichen's reaction. In a flash, he had already jumped to the top of another building. Then, in the blink of an eye, his figure had disappeared from Ning Caichen's sight.
"Brother Ye …" Ning Caichen looked at Ye Xuan, who was disappearing as if he was flying, and shouted. Seeing that Ye Xuan had disappeared, he could not help but feel a sense of loss. After standing outside for a while, he turned around and walked back to his room.
In the side hall, Yan Chixia, who was sitting cross-legged on a bed and preparing to cultivate, could not help but frown when he heard the sound of Ye Xuan leaving. He placed the wooden box containing the sword on his knees, closed his eyes slightly, and made a gesture with his hands. Then, he closed his eyes and cultivated indifferently.
