Ye Futian also had a look of surprise on his face. He was obviously very surprised.
Yan Yuan was the eldest disciple of the imperial advisor of Dali. He was at the third tier of the Divine Path, an Unblemished Saint. According to the records in Emperor Xia's Palace, Yan Yuan was very likely to stand at the top of this plane.
Li Xuan was of royal blood, and he had been brought to the Upper Worlds by Yan Yuan's younger brother, Lu Chuan. No matter how you looked at it, Yan Yuan should have been the mediator instead of asking him to draw his sword.
If he did, there would only be one result.
He and Li Xuan would both die.
Ye Futian looked at Yan Yuan and saw that he was wearing a simple robe. His face was like jade, his figure was slender, and his temperament was extraordinary.
At this time, his eyes were very calm, without a trace of emotion. It was as if he had just said something very ordinary.
It was not just Ye Futian. Even Dali Academy and many onlookers did not understand why Yan Yuan would ask Ye Futian to draw his sword.
"He wants to kill you, and now you have him. You can't escape, and he can't guarantee your survival. Why are you hesitating in such a hopeless situation?" Yan Yuan saw Ye Futian looking at him and could not help but continue to speak, as if he was encouraging Ye Futian to make a move.
"Senior is right," Ye Futian replied. Sword will screamed from his body. His arm moved slightly, and the tip of the sword continued to pierce Li Xuan's throat.
Li Xuan's face went pale at this moment.
"Wait," he uttered. The sword in Ye Futian's hand stopped and he stared at him.
Li Xuan's face was very gloomy. He stared at Ye Futian and said, "You don't trust me, but can you trust Dali Academy?"
"I can," Ye Futian said without hesitation.
"Brother Yan." Li Xuan looked at Yan Yuan.
Obviously, he was afraid. He was willing to give in and ask Yan Yuan to save him.
"Seventh Swordsman, how can you let go of your sword?" Yan Yuan saw the look in Li Xuan's eyes and asked Ye Futian.
"Make sure that I live." Ye Futian's words were simple and powerful. He had drawn his sword to protect himself.
"That's simple." Yan Yuan looked at Li Xuan and said, "Li Xuan, I can vouch for you on the honor of Dali Academy, but if you cannot do it, what will you do?"
Li Xuan stared at Ye Futian and saw the cold look in his eyes. He knew what a ruthless man the Seventh Swordsman was. It would have been impossible for him to have done so half-heartedly. Ye Futian would not have abandoned his sword.
"I swear on my life." Li Xuan's voice was hoarse, but it was cold to the extreme.
"Alright." Yan Yuan nodded. "In that case, I will vouch for him in the name of Dali Academy. If you abandon your sword, Li Xuan will not pursue this matter. Otherwise, it will be the same as Li Xuan trampling on the name of Dali Academy. He will use his own life as proof. Is that enough?"
"It's not just Li Xuan. If the people behind him pursue this matter, it's the same as him," Ye Futian continued.
A look of surprise came over everyone's faces. This swordsman's combat prowess was extraordinary, but no one expected him to be so meticulous, not giving Li Xuan the slightest chance to retaliate.
"Sure." Li Xuan's voice was still hoarse.
Ye Futian stared at him and saw that Li Xuan's eyes were filled with cold murderous intent, but Ye Futian did not care.
"Put your sword away," Yan Yuan said.
Ye Futian put his sword away, and the saint from before flashed and came behind Li Xuan. He looked at Ye Futian coldly as well.
He was responsible for this matter.
Under his attack, Ye Futian had actually left the battlefield and given Li Xuan a fatal blow.
His opponent was also skilled in spatial swordsmanship.
"This matter ends here," Yan Yuan said. After Deepflame said this, he turned and left as if nothing had happened. The other Saints of Dali Academy left with him.
Li Xuan had sworn on his own life that he would not dare to make a move.
Many of the disciples of Dali Academy looked at Yan Yuan's back and secretly admired him.
Yan Yuan had asked Ye Futian to use his sword, but was he not taking a step back in order to advance?
Since neither of them was willing to give in, then they would see who was more ruthless and who would compromise first.
It was clear that Li Xuan had compromised first and asked him for help.
Even though Li Xuan had sworn on his own life, he had asked Yan Yuan to do it. No one had asked him to do it. Not even the Prince Regent could find any fault with it.
In this confrontation, it was clear that Li Xuan had lost.
He did not dare to trade his life.
After Ye Futian sheathed his sword, he turned and walked away. He did not take any more precautions. Based on his understanding of Dali Academy and the Imperial Advisor of Dali, even a prince would not dare to openly despise the reputation of Dali Academy, let alone the grandson of the Prince Regent. Li Xuan had sworn on his own life that if he made a move against him at this time, he would be seeking death.
Although Yan Yuan turned and left as if nothing had happened, Ye Futian did not think that Yan Yuan would be easy to deal with. How could someone who had become one of the top figures of Dali be simple?
"Seventh Swordsman." At this moment, a voice was heard. A group of figures flashed by, and the two at the front were Li Yang and Li You.
"Young Prince, Princess," Ye Futian called out when he saw the two of them.
Li Yang and Li You looked up at Li Xuan, and Li Xuan looked back at them.
The Prince Regent and King Li were both of the four kings, but the Prince Regent was also King Li's elder, and King Li had to call him uncle.
Therefore, in terms of seniority, Li Yang, Li You, and the grandson of the Prince Regent, Li Xuan, belonged to the same generation.
Moreover, they were direct descendants of the two kings, so their statuses were equal.
"Are you all right?" Li You asked Ye Futian.
"I'm fine," Ye Futian replied.
At this moment, Li You's expression was a little ugly, and it was not only because of Ye Futian's talent.
Ye Futian came from the Lower Worlds, and her father, King Li, was the ruler of the Lower Worlds. Lu Chuan, Sword Mountain, and the others had chosen Ye Futian. In a sense, King Li's Palace had naturally established a relationship with Ye Futian.
Therefore, Li You had always been good to Ye Futian, because he came from the Lower Worlds and had outstanding talent.
But she had already learned that the Seventh Swordsman had almost died at the hands of Li Xuan.
The strongest genius from the Lower Worlds, which was ruled by her father, had almost been killed for no reason. Naturally, she was not in a good mood.
But before she said anything, she heard Li Xuan say, "Li Yang, Li You, is he one of yours?"
"The Seventh Swordsman was invited by Mr. Lu Chuan and the others from the Lower Worlds. He is the strongest genius of Dali Imperial City in the Lower Worlds below the Saint Plane. The Shadow Bearing Sword Saint of Sword Mountain invited him to cultivate in Sword Mountain," Li You said coldly. "Li Xuan, why did you kill him without saying a word?"
Everyone looked surprised when they heard Li You's words. No wonder this swordsman was so strong that he could take down Li Xuan with one strike under the attack of a Saint. He was the number one genius of the Lower Worlds, and Lu Chuan and the others had brought him to the Upper Worlds.
Many people knew that Lu Chuan and the others had come to the Lower Worlds.
Because of this, many people could not help but look strange. They had thought that this was a simple conflict.
But now it seemed that it was not so simple.
Who was Yan Yuan?
He was Lu Chuan's eldest brother, and Yan Yuan was very close to Lu Chuan and valued his brother very much.
Since the Seventh Swordsman was brought to the Upper Worlds by Lu Chuan, then it was very likely that Yan Yuan knew him when he heard his name.
But just now, Yan Yuan had asked the Seventh Swordsman to attack.
From Yan Yuan's point of view, he was mediating and did not help anyone. He was just trying to resolve this matter. But who was Yan Yuan's attitude toward?
Or perhaps he was neither.
Interestingly, did Li Xuan know that the Seventh Swordsman was brought to the Upper Worlds by Lu Chuan?
If he did, then it was worth thinking about.
"Is that so?" Li Xuan looked at Li You and said, "No wonder he dared to come to Dali Academy to provoke us. His sword is indeed very good."
As he said this, he put his hand on his neck and wiped away the blood.
There was still a stabbing pain and a hint of coldness.
"However, although I promised not to pursue what happened today, he better not do anything else out of line. Otherwise, if he falls into my hands …" Li Xuan's expression was cold, and he did not hide his murderous intent. "No matter who he is.
So, it is best that you keep your distance from him, lest you hurt our friendship. "
As he said this, Li Xuan glanced coldly at Ye Futian and walked away. His murderous intent was fierce.
Today, he had been stabbed in the throat by this swordsman, threatening to take his life.
This matter was not over. He would keep an eye on the Seventh Swordsman.
Li Yang and Li You looked a little angry. They watched him leave with cold eyes until he was gone.
"Master Seventh Swordsman, let us send you back," said Li You.
"Thank you." Ye Futian nodded. Although there was no danger, he did not refuse Li You's kindness. As for seeking the Path, after this conflict, there was no need to continue.
The group of people walked away, and only then did the disciples of Dali Academy and the surrounding cultivators disperse. They all went to find out a name.
The Seventh Swordsman.
Ye Futian followed Li You and the others through the air. Ye Futian asked, "Who is Li Xuan?"
Although he had learned about the top powers of Emperor Li's Realm through the scrolls, it was impossible for him to know everyone in the Sovereign Family. From the moment Yan Yuan had used his sword, he knew that the other could not be a prince, so it could only be another disciple of the Sovereign Family. But he still did not know his specific identity.
Obviously, he was not of King Li's bloodline.
"The grandson of the Prince Regent," said Li You. "This Li Xuan has always been very casual and impudent. I never thought he would try to kill you."
"The Prince Regent's grandson," Ye Futian said to himself. No wonder he dared to be so impudent and fearless.
"My intuition tells me that he should know that I came from the Lower Worlds of Emperor Li's Realm," said Ye Futian. From beginning to end, Li Xuan did not seem like a good-for-nothing at all. Instead, he seemed to be out to take his life.
When Li Yang and Li You heard what he said, they both looked at each other with a strange expression.
If Li Xuan knew, then he would be dead.
The Imperial Advisor was highly regarded by His Majesty, and the people of Dali Imperial City called him second only to His Majesty. Obviously, in the hearts of the people of Dali Imperial City, the Imperial Advisor was second only to His Majesty.
King Tiandao's dissatisfaction with this was public, and so he had always been at odds with the Imperial Advisor. Everyone in Dali knew this.
But the Prince Regent kept a low profile, and in recent years, he had rarely cared about what was happening outside.
In Dali Imperial City, there were three kings, but the Imperial Advisor's Residence was above them.
It was difficult for the people of the Prince Regent's Residence not to have such thoughts.
Ye Futian had been brought to the Upper Worlds by Lu Chuan. If Li Xuan knew Ye Futian's identity and pretended not to know and killed him, then he had ulterior motives and would be suspected of deliberately stirring up trouble!
