651 Ye Chen Will Lose (2/2)

He was actually not a nobody, and was indeed the older sword master who was ranked second in the ranking named Xu Yuan. He was aged at least one hundred and fifty years old.

One of them was a blade artist ranked 5th, and the other was the sword artist ranked 2nd. It would be impossible for their arrival to be unnoticed.

”Brother Xie, thank you for pushing this battle so hard. I had been so excited about it. I cannot wait for it to take place.” Xu Yuan chuckled.

Xie Baiting said, ”Xu brother, you will not be disappointed!”

”Alright! If brother Xie has said so, then I will definitely not be disappointed.” Xu Yun was very clear about Xie Baiting's judgment. One year ago, he was not there because of his reputation, but there was no need for him to be there anyway. The reason that he had decided to join along this time was because Xie Baiting had told him about Lu Shaoyou and Xiao Chuhe.

As for the battle between Ye Chen and Du Gujue, they honestly did not really care about it, since even top of the top martial geniuses would need time to grow. Therefore, this time, it would still be focusing on Lu Shaoyou and Xiao Chuhe. Ye Chen's battle with Du Gujue would only be a side dish.

A lot of people had recognized Xu Yuan and his identity. They were glad that they were able to witness this top martial warrior who had not been seen for many years. According to the rumors, his power had already reached the next level.

Of course, Xie Baiting's identity was no less than Xu Yuan's. Although his ranking was a bit behind, it was only a point of reference after all. If there were an actual battle, no one could really tell who would win. The reason that Xu Yuan seemed way more famous was because he was rarely spotted, which made him more mysterious.

The fog in the morning had finally disappeared, and the sun was one-thirds in the sky.

People with good eye sight could see a beam of white light flashing in the horizon, the distance from which was decreasing at a drastic speed.

Soon, the white light became a human figure: it was indeed Lu Shaoyou!

”He is finally here!”

”So excited! Lu Shaoyou is here first, so the battle between him and Xiao Chuhe would go first I think.”

”Ah, I actually really wanted to see the battle between Ye Chen and Du Gujue first. Otherwise, I might not be as interested after the battle between Lu Shaoyou and Xiao Chuhe.”

It was like eating; if one had been eating a lot of delicious food, one could no longer opt out for average food.

Lu Shaoyou was like a floating dragon as he appeared above the lake within the second. That flowy qi seemed to have cooled down the area.

”What a sword artist!”

Xu Yuan's eyes brightened. Once reaching his realm, all he needed to do was sense the warrior's qi before telling the warrior's power level. Without a doubt, Lu Shaoyou had piqued his interest.

”Lu Shaoyou!”

Xiao Chuhe stood up as that powerful blade intent clashed with Lu Shaoyou's sword intent. The sky seemed to start changing while countless sword shadows and blade lights seemed to appear vaguely.

Some of the weaker warriors could feel the chill run down their spines and their hair stand up on their arms. This included Li Daoxuan and Yan Chihuo, one of whom was a sword artist while the other was a blade artist.

”It seems like we will have to battle first. But, it is for the best I think. The sooner we battle, the sooner we can leave.” Lu Shaoyou had no interest in watching Ye Chen and Du Gujue battle, especially if he had to wait for it.

”I was thinking the same. The other battles do not mean much to me.”

Xiao Chuhe's wounds had been cured completely. As long as it was not too severe a wound, he could heal most of them.

”Let's do this!” Lu Shaoyou breath calmly, but his eyes got sharper and sharper.

Relaxing his body, Xiao Chuhe was about to fly out before he made a slight noise as he looked into the distance. A grey light was approaching.

”It is Du Gujue! He is finally here!” Someone yelled out.

The light was moving at an extreme speed. When it was getting close to the lake, the protective Zhen yuan layer had been let go as it appeared in the middle of the lake.

Without looking at anyone else, Du Gujue found Ye Chen with his grey colored pupils.

Ye Chen sat on the mountain as he put away his new-found manual and lifted up his head, looking over relaxedly. He was a bit surprised as he sensed his opponent's qi and thoughts seemed to have passed through his mind.

Whoo!

All of a sudden, an aggressive, hysterical aura was released from Du Gujue's body and a despairing blade intent poured out toward Ye Chen. Those people who were standing close to him had sensed hell, that emotion of despair growing in their heads as they started to look pained.

”What a horrifying blade intent!” Ye Chen did not move, but Xie Baiting did. He released out his own blade intent which clashed with Du Gujue's.

What shocked him was that the second his blade intent touched Du Gujue's, he could sense a surreal Du Gujue jumping at him with a blade. That despairing blade light filled up his whole mind, and he could not help but gasp for air.

”Wow, so scary! Ye Chen will definitely lose this one!” Xie Baiting's body shook once as he let go of his blade intent. Cold sweat appeared on his forehead.
