Synopsis: Hiding under Sect Master Yan’s shelter… A stray dog lives a better life than you

There were four stages in sword arts: Sword Energy, Sword Intent, Sword Heart, and Sword Spirit

The a inner qi to wield his sword and its sword energy running boundless, and they thought the man must have profound skills, when in fact it was only the first stage to the unfathomable realm of sword arts

Of course, not everyone could achieve the first stage of Sword Energy so easilySo for it and yet they still couldn’t find the way inMost people still depended on countering their opponents through sword moves and techniques in order to winShen Qiao too did not find his way easilyPreviously, he had been pushed by Yan Wushi+ to his lie of life and death, and only after he found a way out the impasse was he finally able to comprehend the Sword Intent

Since Li Qingyu had already reached the stage of Sword Intent at such a young age, one could see just how incredible his aptitude towards martial arts was

However, itto do with the fact that he had just comprehended the Sword Intent and was still inexperienced, or perhaps because he hadn’t reached that stage yet at that time, that he would lose to Yu Ai by a hair’s breadth on Mount Xuandu

All in all, the tords, “Sword Intent”, were enough to yu a little differently

On top of Yi bi+chen as already one of the Top Ten, there noas Li QingyuThe rise of the Chunyang Daoist Temple was simply unstoppable

Duan Wenyang didn’t just resign to his defeatEven though he couldn’t figure out which “shadow iyu for a period of ties, he chose to thrash his whip at the floor and use the counterforce to leap high into the airHe ju itself around the branch as he himself immediately tapped on the tree with his footHe then turned around and dived down right at Li QingyuThe afteri all the shadow ies below!

Before his body arrived, his inner qi was already co the entire space underneath itNowas certain: hehad constructed around him in order to resolve the passive situation he was in

However, just like the i left on others, his inner qi was confident and unrestrained, yet at the same time, it was unreasonable and tyrannicalIt was everywhere, but at the sa a precipice covered with ice, or finding an antelope hiding a the trees, there was no place to startIt went in with every opening, yet there was no trace to be foundThe inner qi was simply unstoppable

Rolled up by the inner qi, the leaves in the courtyard all parted their branches and started to circle around the two of the the others blind to the battle progress within

No one knehat feelings those ere battling right now had, but the onlookers were all extremely nervous

Those froh swordsman, but they still feared the possibility of unexpected results, especially Su QiaoHe had just fought with Duan Wenyang in person athat man wasIt was still unclear whether his martial brother could win the battle or not

If Duan Wenyang defeated Li Qingyu, probably no one else present wouldbe his matchBy that time, whether they could take away Su Wei’s cousin and her husband was just a sot out, it would definitely boost the Tujue people’sthe Central Plains’, which was probably the reason why they had chosen today to pick a fight

Just when Su Qiao was co up with all these conjectures, the fallen leaves around theround

The two of the where he hen he started, but the sword he held originally dropped not far fro’s as still in his hand

Both of then of injuriesLi Qingyu’s face was expressionless, and Duan Wenyang looked the same as before

Everyone felt a little confused

Duan Wenyang broke into a laugh and spoke first, “Just as I expected, Mister Li’s reputation is well-deservedBeing able to reach the stage of ‘Sword Intent’ at such a young age, your future prospectsto admit my defeat!”

Li Qingyu said slowly, “I’ for me to say”

Everyone was shocked by the conversation, their eyes wandering back and forth between Duan Wenyang and Li Qingyu

One of the admit my defeat”, while the other person said “not your match”So as the winner after all? And who lost?

Duan Wenyang laughed, “I was coranted the chance to exchange martial arts with one of the most famous contemporary new talentsAt least my trip wasn’t wasted this time!”

Xie Xiang suddenly spoke up, “If Brother Duan wishes to continue, the Linchuan Institute would beto keep your company”

Duan Wenyang looked aroundClasping his hands behind his back, he said in absolute arrogance, “Oh? What can the Linchuan Institute do? I ht if Ruyan Kehui himself comes over, but you’re definitely notof talentedDaoist Temple, and the Six Harmonies association are all far-failistic circle of the Central PlainsTo erations in the rumors that these sects are better known by repute than in faceAh to bemuch of”

He paused a little bit and continued, “Ah, I alht be better than theirs, but that was before your defeat in the hand of ht now is just a tiger without its teethWhat was that saying that you people froer went down to level land, even dogs could assault hiht nowNot only are you unable to return to Mount Xuandu, you even have to hide under Sect Master Yan’s shelterA stray dog lives a better life than youIf I were you, I wouldn’t have the face to live in this world anymore, and I probably would have killed o!”

He had a s at Shen Qiao ere utterly cold and indifferent

Obviously, Shen Qiao was no longer an “opponent” in his eyes, but rather an insignificant “passerby” or even “trash”

It was extreme public humiliationPuliuru Jian felt that he would not have been able to tolerate it himself if it happened to hi so docile andThe kind of endurance and self-cultivation he had was simply impressive, but at the same time, it made people look down on him

Xie Xiang could watch Duan Wenyang hunore the fact that this person regarded the Linchuan Institute as worthlessJudging by the way Duan Wenyang said it, it see Daoist Temple worthy to be his opponent andresponded with a sneer and was about to justify his anger

But Su Wei suddenly spoke up, “Duan Wenyang, you’ve round and brought enough mess to it alreadySince you came as a representative of the Empress, I’ll definitely report what happened here today to the EhnessNow, I request you to please leave this place immediately”

Duan Wenyang laughed heartily, “I’ve already experienced Mister Li’s Sword Intent and a District hadn’t orderedto leave ain soon!”

Upon finishi+ng, he turned around and left at onceUnable to stand it any from the Linchuan Institute would like to ask Brother Duan for your advice!”

Upon finishi+ng, he turned around and left at onceUnable to stand it any from the Linchuan Institute would like to ask Brother Duan for your advice!”

Before his voice faded, he had already unsheathed his sword, and his body turned into a rainbow charging toward Duan Wenyang!

However, Duan Wenyuan see such an action froround and leaped right onto the roofThen he disappeared without a trace, leaving only a lingering laugh behind him: “Mister Xie wants to use me to make a na to keep you coe of ‘Sword Intent’! Hahaha!”

Xie Xiang lost his targetHe had no choice but to retrieve his sword and land back onto the ground, gazing in hatred at the direction where the other person had disappeared

On the other side, soht?”

Everyone immediately turned their heads to where the voice cayu took out a handkerchief and spat some bloody spittle on itHe shook his head: “I’m fine, just soh”

Only then did the other people realize what he yu wasn’t Duan Wenyang’s match even after he had comprehended the Sword Intent, then to what extent could that Tujue u?

They all looked at each other with ghastly expressions at the thought of it

Xie Xiang felt his heart sinking as well

He believed that his aptitude wasn’t bad, and over the years when he was traveling in the pugilistic world, the opponents he had encountered gave him an illusion that even if he couldn’t make it to the Top Ten, he wouldn’t be far fro out one after anotherFirst there was Li Qingyu who had already co as even stronger than Li QingyuIt was said that ‘The new generation excelled the old’, but even within the current generation, the new people were already replacing the older ones, like the constant discovery of taller mountains

He felt slightly depressed, while on the other side, Li Qingyu had already walked over to Shen Qiao“Sect Leader Shen”

Shen Qiao said, “Shen is no longer the sect leaderMister Li doesn’t need to address me like this”

Li Qingyu ignored him and continued by hie of Sword Intent, yet I’Could it be that his junior ?”

Shen Qiao shook his head and answered, “Kunye is strong, but not as good as Duan Wenyang”

Li Qingyu said, “Back in those years, Qi Fengge was the best martial artist in the worldI always looked up to his sHowever, Sect Leader Shen, as the mantle disciple of his, you couldn’t even defeat Kunye”

Shen Qiao didn’t say anything

Li Qingyu softly sighed, “‘ When you were born, I was notWhen I was born, you were already old’What a pity that I couldn’t witness Qi Fengge’s ht that there would be qualified successors in Mount Xuandu to carry on his legacies, but, what a misfortune, what a misfortune!”

His face was still indifferent as usualBut when he said the word “ret in his voice which couldn’t have been more sincere

His face was still indifferent as usualBut when he said the word “ret in his voice which couldn’t have been more sincere

This was a person who followed the Way of martial arts with utmost sincerityHe would not belittle those ere only mediocre in aptitude or those ere unable to study under a good yu’s point of view, Shen Qiao had the advantage of both: he ay ahead of others in both aptitude and education along with the training he received later, yet he still ended up like thisTherefore, not only did he look down on Shen Qiao, there was also a faint anger that resulted from extreme disappointment

First there cah, not to e looks frouts, if not burst with anger, would have at least pulled their faces and felt too ashaer

However, Shen Qiao was simply able to endure what nor at allHe was not shaken even a bit; his face as calreed to what Li Qingyu said, “Master indeed had extraordinary bearings, and few could compare with himIt was a pity that Mister Li didn’t have the chance to see hi talents, Master surely would have appreciated you very much”

Even Puliuru Jian had to respect Shen Qiao’s self-restraint for the fact that he was able to say so down and eventually avoiding the other person’s judgement at him

Li Qingyu didn’t see such a reaction from Shen QiaoHe only said flatly, “You were a fine man, why did you choose to dance with the devil thus abandoning yourself?”

The “devil” he was referring to was Yan Wushi+ of course

Shen Qiao was the sect leader of a Daoist Sect, but he ended up tagging along with a “devil” like Yan Wushi+– a degenerate for sure in other people’s eyes

However, Yan Wushi+, the sect master of a demonic sect in other martial artists’ eyes, was in fact the Junior Preceptor of the Crown Prince appointed by the EmperorPuliuru Jian frownedBefore Shen Qiao could answer, he interjected, “Mister Li’s skill is superb, and Jian admires you very muchHowever, the more talented a person is, the more modest and open-ood, and he hasn’t offended you in any wayI don’t think it’s right for soressive and provocative when starting a conversation”

Ling Qingyu glanced at Puliuru JianHe didn’t say anything, nor did he intend to stay longerHe turned around and decided to leave right away

Su Wei stopped hiyu, then said out loud, “The birthday party today has turned out a little disappointing due to an unwelcouest, and we take full bla up for us and helping us outSince my brother is injured, I’ize to all guests and proe another dinner soive us”

The incident today was out of everyone’s expectationsThey naturally wouldn’t blame the host for it and even offered their consolationsSome of the aristocrats ere close to the Su Fa the memorial to present to the Emperor about what happened

Souided by one of Lady Qin’s servant girls to the back to take a rest and treat his wound

Puliuru Jian suggested to Shen Qiao, “Mister Shen, why don’t we leave too?”

Shen Qiao nodded, but before he said anything, so expected happened!

“I thought of a good idea before I leftSince you all refused to turn in Yuan Xiong and his wife, I’ll just invite Lady Qin over to my place firstLet’s see which person is more important to you — your mother or your cousin?!”

The voice sounded froh so crisp and clear as if it was spoken right next to their earsThis skill to concentrate one’s voice into a beam was even harder than the art of Secret Acoustic, aone’s voice directly into another person’s ear without other people hearing it

Su Qiao and Su Wei’s face changed in shock at onceThe forth to truss a chicken, while the latter had just lost to Duan Wenyang a ht hand was still temporarily disabled, but he didn’t have tied towards the direction of his mother

Su Qiao and Su Wei’s face changed in shock at onceThe forth to truss a chicken, while the latter had just lost to Duan Wenyang a ht hand was still temporarily disabled, but he didn’t have tied towards the direction of his mother

But before he was able to get close, he was suddenly thrown to the opposite direction and fell heavily onto the groundThe others couldn’t even tell hoas injured!

No one had expected that Duan Wenyang would return immediately after he had left!

Yet thinking about it carefully, he never agreed to give up taking Yuan Xiong and his ith him when he leftTherefore, it was clearly part of his plan, and he didn’t go that far at all

In such a critical mo hi his wordLet it be the pugilistic world or the imperial court, or even the political situation of the world as a whole, it all caer fist had the final say

Therefore, the yu, Dou Yanshan, Xie Xiang and so to stop Duan Wenyang
