The Misfortune of the Qi Family
Chu Xingyun's steps were not big and were very light. However, in Qi Yuzhen's eyes, it was as if a mountain was crashing down on him, causing his body to tremble violently.
He clenched his fists and wanted to stand up and take a step forward. However, before he could take a step forward, the terrifying sword pressure descended on him, causing him to be unable to take even half a step forward.
I've lost?
These three words appeared in Qi Yuzhen's mind, causing his handsome face to distort.
As the son of the Swordmaster, Qi Yuzhen had entered the Wanjian Pavilion a long time ago. He had entered the Profound Sword Valley three times before, so he knew the boundless sword pressure like the back of his hand. He knew how to use various techniques to resist and endure.
This year, he had made another breakthrough and successfully entered the sixth region. Furthermore, he had advanced fifty-three meters, which was a gratifying result.
However, in the end, he had still lost. He had lost to Chu Xingyun, who had just entered the Profound Sword Valley.
"When you and I made the bet, everyone inside and outside the Profound Sword Valley clearly saw it. As the son of the Swordmaster, you won't go back on your word, right?" Chu Xingyun's voice came at the right time, causing Qi Yuzhen to regain his senses. His eyes trembled and surged with rage.
"Hmph!"
He let out a snort, and with a tug of his hand, he pulled off the silver elbow guard and tossed it to Chu Xingyun.
When the silver elbow guard came close, Chu Xingyun's right arm trembled without any warning. The Ten Thousand Elephant Gauntlet that he was wearing let out a soft sound of resonance.
"I've succeeded!" Chu Xing Yun grabbed the silver elbow guard in his hand, and a faint smile appeared on his face.
Outside of the Mysterious Sword Valley, Chu Xingyun had noticed Qi Yuzhen's silver elbow guard at first glance. That elbow guard didn't have anything special about it. Although it was a King weapon, there was only one divine pattern on it. It wasn't eye-catching.
However, when the two of them came closer, Chu Xingyun was shocked to find that the Ten Thousand Elephant Gauntlet on his right arm was letting out a sound of resonance.
At that moment, Chu Xingyun immediately understood that the silver elbow guard on Qi Yuzhen's hand was one of the accessories of the Ten Thousand Elephant Gauntlet. It was also the fourth accessory that Chu Xingyun had seen.
At that moment, Chu Xingyun was thinking about how to get the silver elbow guards into his pocket. It was only when Qi Yuzhen took the initiative to provoke him that Chu Xingyun had a flash of inspiration and suddenly thought of this plan.
After taking the silver elbow guard, Chu Xingyun.......... he was not happy.. Instead, he put it into his storage ring.......
This was the Xuanjian Valley. Every movement could be clearly seen by the people outside the valley.
If he immediately put the silver elbow guard into the Ten Thousand Elephant Gauntlet, he would attract attention. Chang Chixiao and the others especially hated him to the bone. They would definitely observe him carefully.
Once they discovered the secret of the Ten Thousand Elephant Gauntlet, it would cause a huge uproar. Everything that had happened in the secret realm might be exposed.
Chu Xingyun could not take this risk.
Seeing Chu Xingyun put the silver elbow guard into his storage ring, Qi Yuzhen's face became even more furious. He gritted his teeth and said coldly, "Luo Yun, don't be arrogant too early. I'll make you pay a hundredfold in the Heavenly Sword Trials in ten days!"
The coldness in his voice caused the atmosphere to freeze. Chu Xing Yun raised his head slightly. He first glanced at Qi Yu Zhen, then sneered and said, "It seems that from the beginning to the end, it was only you who was arrogant, right?"
Chu Xingyun crossed his arms in front of his chest and said indifferently, "From the moment I entered the Profound Sword Valley, you used the advantage of entering the Profound Sword Valley many times to provoke me and make things difficult for me. You even used others to threaten me and force me to compete with you. At that time, the arrogant person was you."
"After I agreed to compete with you, we started from the second layer of the Mysterious Sword Valley. You and I ran all the way to the sixth layer. On the way, you treated me as a loser and declared your victory many times. At that time, you were still the arrogant one."
"At this moment, after I defeated you and took the silver elbow guards, I didn't even say a word. But you said that it was too early for me to be arrogant. You even said that you would make me pay you back a hundredfold at the Soaring Heaven Sword Conference. You're the arrogant one."
"I really don't understand. Now that you've become the loser, where did you get the confidence to say such words to me? Could it be that you, Qi Yuzhen, don't have the word 'shame' in your dictionary?"
His words were like needles. Every single word and word pierced into Qi Yuzhen's mind, causing his entire face to turn ashen. He gasped for breath like an ox, and it was as if he wanted to tear Chu Xingyun into pieces.
He, Qi Yuzhen, had always been the pride of the heavens since he was born. No one dared to scold him.
However, Chu Xingyun had criticized his words and actions in front of everyone, and even said that he was shameless. This had ignited the fury in Qi Yuzhen's heart.
"However, you can't be blamed for this."
Suddenly, Chu Xingyun spoke again. This time, he did not look at Qi Yuzhen. Instead, he raised his head and looked at the misty void. With a clear voice, he said, "As the ancient saying goes, if the child is not taught well, it is the father's fault. Perhaps your Sword Master father had long believed that you would defeat me. Thus, he began to boast about your victory."
"A father and a son, both of them are the same. What a misfortune for the Qi Clan!"
Chu Xingyun's voice not only resounded throughout the entire Xuanjian Valley, but also outside the Xuanjian Valley, allowing everyone to hear it clearly.
At this moment, the space outside the Xuanjian Valley was deathly silent. Everyone was so shocked by these words that they couldn't speak. It was as if something was stuck in their throats, making it difficult for them to even make a sound.
"Bastard!"
A furious aura erupted from Qi Yangchen's body. With him as the center, the space within a hundred-meter radius became distorted. Wild winds howled as his fury wreaked havoc. Everyone retreated a hundred meters, afraid that they would be caught in the crossfire.
Chang Chixiao and Qin Qiumo, who were beside Qi Yangchen, had ugly expressions on their faces.
None of them had expected that Chu Xingyun would be the final victor of the match that was clearly within their grasp. Furthermore, Chu Xingyun's words were truly sharp. With just a few words, he had made them unable to refute him at all.
In the valley, Chu Xingyun could sense Qi Yangchen's anger. He looked away with satisfaction.
He ignored Qi Yuzhen's angry gaze. He turned around and said casually, "Qi Yuzhen, before the competition, I said that I would let you know what it means to humiliate yourself. That was just a part of it."
"Hmm?"
Qi Yuzhen was stunned. He didn't understand what Chu Xingyun meant.
Not only him, even the crowd inside and outside the Profound Sword Valley were frowning in doubt. They focused their gazes on him, hoping to find some clues.
Chu Xingyun didn't explain. He only took a deep breath. Then, a dazzling white light was released and covered his entire body. It was as bright and eye-catching as the sun.
"Dodge!"
He suddenly spat out a word.
Before he could finish his words, his body had already disappeared.
When Chu Xingyun appeared again, he was already at the end of the Xuanjian Valley. The terrifying sword pressure pressed down on him, but it didn't affect him at all. It was as if the sword pressure didn't exist at all.
This scene made the Xuanjian Valley fall into silence again.
Qi Yangchen, who was roaring furiously, shut his mouth.
The chattering crowd also shut their mouths.
Everyone looked at Chu Xingyun, who had easily stepped into the ninth level of the Xuanjian Valley. They felt as if they were dreaming. Their eyes trembled and their gazes froze. They couldn't accept this result.
As for Qi Yuzhen, who was inside the Xuanjian Valley, he was even more shocked.
