“what?!”

everyone was appalled. other than a very few numbers of experts, no one else had seen what had happened before jiu qifeng was cut in two.

long chen smiled with satisfaction. a battle should just be like this: using the smallest price to get the greatest result.

ouyang qiuyu’s expression was calm, but inside, she was stunned. song mingyuan’s attack just now had actually been one of exchanging his life to take a life.

when his opponent’s weapon had been about to reach him, he hadn’t even looked at it. instead, he had directly slashed his saber at his opponent’s waist.

that was clearly a suicide attempt. furthermore, unlike most people who used such a move, he was not bluffing. this kind of exchange was a competition between who had more guts and who was more afraid of death.

in this kind of competition, anyone afraid of death would be forced to change into defense. they would be forced into a passive position.

but that was not song mingyuan’s intention. he was clearly going for an exchange of lives. by the point he had struck, it had been too late for jiu qifeng to change his attack into defense.

in the end, song mingyuan’s saber had cut through jiu qifeng’s body, while jiu qifeng’s weapon had only broken song mingyuan’s shoulder. although that attack had reached the bone, it hadn’t even severed his arm.

of the people present, only the dragonblood legion’s people understood why that was so. it was because jiu qifeng had been completely suppressed by how imposing song mingyuan had been.

when song mingyuan had displayed his unquestionable resolve to die with him, jiu qifeng’s courage had been completely broken. in that instant, he had wanted to switch to defense. but he hadn’t had enough time to do that. as for dying with song mingyuan, he also didn’t have the courage. as a result, his head had become completely empty.

that had resulted in his attack weakening and this conclusion. jiu qifeng might have plenty of combat experience, but he had never seen someone so ruthless as to immediately fight with his life on the line as soon as they clashed.

jiu qifeng’s body had only just been sliced apart when song mingyuan’s saber slashed through his head. blood splashed. an acrid smell spread.

a powerful celestial had died just like this, without an opportunity to even use the heavenly dao recovery. looking at the indifferent song mingyuan, quite a few people were filled with reverence.

“boss taught us that as people, we need to understand what respect and gratitude are. you don’t have any respect for experts or life, so it was fated for you to lose today!” song mingyuan merely tossed out a few sentences before returning to his side.

it was deathly silent. no one had yet to recover from their shock. it felt like the battle had yet to start before it had ended.

most people hadn’t even understood what was happening. they looked at the completely calm song mingyuan behind long chen in shock.

the celestials from the xuantian dao sect’s subordinates finally understood why their sect leaders would have them put aside their pride to humbly ask for advice from the xuantian dao sect’s disciples.

song mingyuan had appeared so ordinary before. but as soon as he took action, he shocked everyone.

“it should be a spatial magical art. he’s using spatial strength to weaken her attacks. it also possesses a restrictive effect that makes zhong wuyan suffer. her speed and power are clearly lower. if this continues, she won’t be able to gain any advantage at all,” said long chen.

“then isn’t this kind of magical art unrivaled?” asked tang wan-er. spatial strength was something only foundation forging experts and above could control.

“foolish girl, there’s no such thing as an unrivaled magical art in this world. just because zhong wuyan is suppressed doesn’t mean others would be. if it was you, then in less than an incense stick’s worth of time, you would be able to cut him into pieces. as for why he can control spatial strength, it seems his heavenly dao runes were innately special. but compared to an ancestor, this amount of spatial strength isn’t worth anything at all,” said long chen.

his voice wasn’t loud, but the surrounding people heard it clearly. ouyang qiuyu nodded inside. as expected, long chen was extremely experienced and could immediately see through his opponents’ weak points. as for the disciples, they had an urge to prostrate themselves in admiration.

“theory is useless,” sneered shui guanzhi.

“is something wrong with your head? or is something wrong with your mouth? no wonder my boss slapped you so many times. it seems you still need some more,” cursed gu yang.

gu yang’s cursing caused the surrounding people to be stunned. could it be that long chen had slapped shui guanzhi in the face before?

although they had heard that long chen had defeated the four heavenly geniuses, that was just a rumor. none of them knew whether it was true or not. but now, they were all shocked. they looked at long chen and shui guanzhi, wanting to see the answer from them.

“you must want to die!” shui guanzhi pointed at gu yang. gu yang had touched his most painful scar.

long chen shook his head. there really was no saving this idiot. wasn’t he just slapping himself in the face?

as expected, as soon as shui guanzhi said this, everyone realized the truth. they looked at long chen with reverence.

“gu yang, are you a child? go sit and just watch.” long chen waved his hand.

long chen could see that once shui guanzhi had refined the heavenly water pearl and become a rank three celestial, his confidence had also greatly risen. now he was like a wild dog.

it was best to stay further away from such a dog. of course, the other option was to kill it. but you definitely couldn’t try talking to it.

boom!

suddenly, the land trembled. it was unknown what magical art wang yiping had used, but he had completely locked zhong wuyan in place, and a palm viciously slammed into her chest.

that huge power directly caused her chest to cave in. she wildly vomited blood as she flew back. a few of the xuantian dao sect’s disciples went over to catch her, but she then once more coughed up blood and fainted. that palm had clearly not been as simple as it had appeared.

“damn, is she really a woman? her chest was even flatter than mine,” cursed wang yiping. suddenly, he turned to look at meng qi and tang wan-er. he lecherously smiled. “but you two are not bad.”

meng qi and tang wan-er’s expressions immediately changed. tang wan-er was just about to charge forward when she was held back by long chen. long chen narrowed his eyes slightly and then turned to yue zifeng.

“i’ll leave him to you. use him as an offering to your sword.”
