Chapter 9: Second Sword!
Not long after,
A figure in red clothes flew out with a sword, landing steadily on the central platform.
"Xin Hongyi from the Sword Hall, where are the people from the Grass Hall? Come up and fight!"
Not far away, Lu Changsheng was startled, "Did Qiubai provoke this girl? Why did she specifically call him out?"
The elder from the Sword Hall beside him had a black face and said impatiently, "Strictly speaking, you provoked her."
"Huh?"
Lu Changsheng pointed to himself, puzzled, "No way, I haven't even touched a woman's hand yet, how could I have provoked her?"
The elder from the Martial Hall covered his face, saying impatiently, "When you accepted disciples before, this Xin Hongyi specifically wanted to join your Grass Hall by name. But you rejected her with just one sentence."
"The key is that you accepted a disciple at that time, so she must want to prove that she's stronger than Ye Qiubai."
Lu Changsheng's expression was weird.
Others also recognized Xin Hongyi.
"Wasn't she the one who was rejected by the Grass Hall?"
"And now she wants to challenge Ye Qiubai, a disciple of the Grass Hall?"
"But this Xin Hongyi is also very strong. Her performance on the combat arena before was even better than Ye Qiubai's."
Ye Qiubai heard the words around him and understood.
He picked up a wooden sword.
Jumped up.
Seeing this, Xin Hongyi raised her eyebrows and looked at the wooden sword in Ye Qiubai's hand with some displeasure, "What, looking down on me by using a wooden sword?"
Ye Qiubai said calmly, "Master said, with a sword in the heart, anything can be a sword."
The elder from the Sword Hall looked at Lu Changsheng with a complex gaze and said, "It seems that your understanding of the sword is quite deep."
"Huh?"
Lu Changsheng scratched his head and thought carefully.
Did I say that?
On the platform,
Xin Hongyi muttered, "With a sword in the heart, anything can be a sword..."
At this point, Xin Hongyi put away the high-grade treasure sword in her hand. Similarly, she took out an ordinary iron sword with no aura, saying, "Alright, I won't take advantage of you. Let's fight."
Both of them were at the pinnacle of the Golden Core stage.
But Xin Hongyi was very confident. She wanted to defeat Ye Qiubai without relying on any external items, to prove to Lu Changsheng that not choosing her back then was such a wrong choice.
Thinking of this, Xin Hongyi glanced provocatively at Lu Changsheng.
Ye Qiubai shrugged, his steps light, and cracks appeared on the ground at this moment, rushing out!
Xin Hongyi's eyes narrowed slightly. The iron sword in her hand thrust out diagonally, and at that moment, flames appeared on the iron sword!
The flames burned, distorting the space and slashing towards Ye Qiubai!
Ye Qiubai remained calm, holding the wooden sword in both hands and slashing towards the fiery whip!
On the wooden sword, strands of black aura appeared!
Full of demonic nature, as if to make all heavens submit!
"Eh, Heavenly Demon Nine Swords?"
A scruffy man below rubbed his chin and chuckled, "Interesting, he actually cultivated that fragment."
Another man with a feather fan walked over, "Quite courageous. The Heavenly Demon Nine Swords get harder as you go, especially as a fragment."
People around saw the two and couldn't help but exclaim.
"Wu Hall's Huo Qingming! Formation Hall's Lin Ce!"
"Both of them are the top figures in their respective halls now!"
"Both of them are in the mid-stage of the Violet Mansion realm, but they have the strength to kill the peak of the Violet Mansion!"
After the Golden Core stage is the Violet Mansion realm.
At this time, a man walked up to Huo Qingming and whispered, "Brother Huo, that person is the Ye Qiubai I told you about."
"Oh?"
Huo Qingming rubbed his chin and glanced at the man, smiling inexplicably, "Ye Yan, are you sure you want me to cripple him? After all, he's from your Ye family, your junior brother, right?"
Ye Yan's eyes showed ferocity as he said in a harsh tone, "He must be destroyed!"
"Okay."
Huo Qingming sighed inwardly and said, "I owed your Ye family a favor back then, and now, I'm repaying it to your Ye family."
Ye Yan stared at Ye Qiubai above, sneering, "Although I really want to settle you personally, for the sake of safety, let Huo Qingming be your opponent. You should feel honored."
On the platform,
Ye Qiubai's wooden sword had already slashed onto the fiery whip!
The flames didn't incinerate the wooden sword but began to tremble violently, as if they intended to dissipate!
"Heavenly Demon Nine Swords?"
Xin Hongyi on the opposite side was surprised. The iron sword in her hand began to tremble wildly, and even her own mind began to shake!
The reason was the demonic aura emanating from Ye Qiubai's body now, as if it wanted to suppress all things!
This was also the terrifying aspect of the Heavenly Demon Nine Swords.
Not only could it cut everything, but it could also make the opponent submit in terms of momentum!
Xin Hongyi immediately stabilized her mind, gritted her teeth, and slashed out with her iron sword again.
The flames on the sword suddenly surged, and the entire platform seemed to be burning!
The elder from the Sword Hall commented from that side, "Xin Hongyi's Flame Sword Qi is unique to our family's techniques. It can incinerate everything and is extremely domineering."
"But I don't know to what extent Ye Qiubai has cultivated the Heavenly Demon Nine Swords and how many swords he can use."
After saying that, he looked at Lu Changsheng, obviously asking for information.
Lu Changsheng lay on the recliner with his eyes closed and casually replied, "He just started practicing two days ago."
"Then, I'm afraid... he's no match for Xin Hongyi's Flame Sword Qi."
It's only been two days!
Xin Hongyi's expression changed drastically.
It seemed that she wasn't facing Ye Qiubai right now, but a towering demon that disdained the heavens and the earth!
"Second Sword!"
The elder from the Sword Hall stood up abruptly!
Only two days had passed!
Xin Hongyi gritted her teeth. She knew that her current means were simply not a match for Ye Qiubai's sword.
She couldn't resist.
Thinking of this, Xin Hongyi bit her finger, and droplets of blood seeped out.
At the same time, she put away the iron sword and took out the high-grade treasure sword!
Then, she wiped it fiercely on the sword!
"Blood Sacrifice for the Sword!"
Xin Hongyi's face suddenly turned pale. However, the increasingly solid Flame Sword Qi reflected her pale face blood-red!
A sword was slashed out!
It collided violently with Ye Qiubai's wooden sword emitting dark demonic aura!
Crack!
Just as they touched, Xin Hongyi spewed a mouthful of blood!
The flames of sword qi, when faced with this dark demonic aura, directly dissipated.
Crumbled!
At this moment, Xin Hongyi was also sent flying backward, falling to the ground with blood all over her hands.
Even the sword in her hand was trembling continuously, showing that she had no fighting power left.
Ye Qiubai sheathed his sword, his expression indifferent, showing no surprise at all.
"Thank you for the match."
