And as Woo Xiang made his move, Duan Ling also struck, "Angry Dragon Blade!!!"
Duan Ling had been gathering momentum for a dozen breaths, and when he finally swung his blade, his face paled, which showed just how much Mysterious Qi this technique must have drained from him, and naturally, it was incredibly powerful.
The blade shadow almost materialized, shining with a purplish-red luster, oozing with nobility and overwhelming horror. Between the roars of the blade shadow, there were indeed actual dragon shadows accompanying it, devouring as they lunged at Su Chen, filled with unparalleled tyranny.
But then there was Su Chen.
Yu Qingrou didn’t understand.
What on earth was Su Chen doing? Being a Body Cultivator, not striking first and playing a long-range battle was already shocking enough, but who would have expected, at this moment, with both opponents having made their move, he still hadn’t budged?
Yu Qingrou racked her brains but still couldn’t figure it out.
When those countless sword shadows had already reached in front of Su Chen, when that defiantly tyrannical dance of the dragon blade shadows also arrived in front of Su Chen.
Su Chen finally moved.
And with this movement, Yu Qingrou cried out in surprise: "What?!"
In her line of sight, Su Chen actually... actually... actually chose to evade with a movement technique?
A Body Cultivator’s movement speed, to dodge the Mysterious Qi Moves of two Qi Cultivators? That was more than just being overconfident. She had thought Su Chen had some kind of amazing defensive Weapon that could withstand the attacks, but now...
"He’s courting death!" Yu Qingrou muttered to herself.
Meanwhile, from afar, both Woo Xiang and Duan Ling were extremely excited.
Their faces turned red with excitation.
"If he seeks death, who is to blame?" Woo Xiang coldly muttered to himself, his whole body trembling with excitement.
Duan Ling, on the other hand, was clenching his fists tightly, waiting to see Su Chen torn apart by the blade shadows and sword light.
However, soon, the excitement of Woo Xiang and Duan Ling rapidly dissipated, turning into fear... extreme fear.
Yu Qingrou was stunned as well.
In her line of sight.
And Su Chen, as if aided by a deity, seemed to know exactly where the sword shadows would land, easily evading them.
Su Chen’s movements were drifting and elegant, extremely graceful.
How could such Body Technique Speed be possible for a Body Cultivator?
Even Yu Qingrou, who considered her own speed to be about this level--and her movement speed was one of her greatest strengths--was shocked.
And the sword shadows and blade shadows unleashed by Woo Xiang and Duan Ling all struck the ground, with none even grazing the hem of Su Chen’s clothes, not in the slightest.
"You... you... you..." Woo Xiang was at a loss for words, filled with an unimaginable sense of horror.
Duan Ling took a step back.
"Alright, I let you both make your move first, now it’s my turn," Su Chen smiled, then, he drew out his Heavy Divine Sword.
Another sword strike.
Two consecutive strokes, one aiming at Woo Xiang, the other locking onto Duan Ling.
Su Chen sheathed his sword.
Meanwhile, Woo Xiang and Duan Ling stood frozen in place, overwhelmed in that instant by an unimaginable sense of despair that suddenly bore down on them, thick and unescapable. They didn’t even think of trying to dodge, for it was futile to do so.
In addition, their Divine Souls trembled subtly, and their thoughts were somewhat chaotic. Before their eyes, it was as if they were experiencing hallucinations where the whole world was enveloped by the Sword Light, leaving them nowhere to run.
A thousandth of a breath later,
Woo Xiang and Duan Ling shivered violently.
A thin trail of blood was visible at the center of each of their brows.
By Su Chen’s side, Yu Qingrou’s mind was in complete turmoil.
Was Su Chen not a Body Cultivator? How could...how could that sword strike just now be so powerful? It certainly proved that he was in no way inferior in Qi Cultivation, rather he was incredibly strong! In fact, she even sensed a hint of the aura of a Soul Cultivator.
Please...don’t tell her that Su Chen is a Three Paths Cultivator!
Besides, no matter what kind of cultivator Su Chen is, to kill Woo Xiang and Duan Ling with a single sword strike...that’s just too terrifying!
At the very least, she couldn’t do it.
This meant that Su Chen’s strength was greater than hers!
Until now, she always thought Su Chen was special, perhaps secretive, maybe a little powerful, but she never imagined he could be stronger than her!
Even after Su Chen easily assassinated Qiu Tong, she didn’t believe he could be stronger than herself.
Yu Qingrou felt like her entire mind and spirit were shattered.
"In your next life, be a good person," said Yu Qingrou as she was lost in her chaotic thoughts when Su Chen, straightforward as ever, sent an Air Cyclone sweeping over Qiu Sen, who was already paralyzed with fear on the ground.
It moved directly across Qiu Sen’s neck.
Then, Su Chen unleashed another Air Cyclone that swept over Qiu Xin’s Dantian. He did not kill Qiu Xin, because she had not reached the level of depravity of Qiu Sen.
Only after Su Chen had done all this did Yu Qingrou’s mind clear up, "Su...Su Chen, you..."
"Miss Yu, what’s wrong?" Su Chen smiled. He quite liked Yu Qingrou.
"Giggle, Young Master Su, you’ve really put me through the wringer!" Yu Qingrou laughed gleefully, her charm blossoming like a lotus flower: "Just call me Qingrou. I’ll call you Su Chen." The rightful source is noveⅼfire.net
"Of course!" Su Chen nodded.
"Su Chen, what exactly is your strength?" Yu Qingrou couldn’t help but ask.
"I don’t know," Su Chen smiled, truthfully unaware. He only knew that he could easily dispose of anyone below the Creation Realm, but he had yet to encounter anyone above that.
"Hmph, keep fooling me!" Yu Qingrou huffed, feigning anger, yet she exuded a coquettish vibe.
Su Chen coughed awkwardly, slightly overwhelmed. Damn it, Yu Qingrou was truly a Sprite!!!
Every move she made carried a natural charm that left one’s spirit trembling.
And she was only nineteen at that!
A few more years, and she might well be the downfall of an empire!
"Alright, we should check out the ancestral house," Su Chen took a deep breath and said, "Come with me; it’s just right!"
At the mention of the ancestral house, Yu Qingrou also became serious: "Earlier, when I entered the city, I had already asked around. The ancestral house is the path by which the Natives of the Qiuqing Continent gain their strength. Through the ancestral house, they can awaken their ancestral vein and obtain simple Cultivation Techniques and martial skills."
"How do we get in?" Su Chen inquired.
"The ancestral house is divided into the Inner Layer and Outer Layer. The Outer Layer is open to any native of the Qiuqing Continent for awakening their ancestral vein. The Inner Layer, however, is only accessible to a select few. It is said to contain the Cultivation Techniques, martial skills, Elixirs, treasures, and more left by the War God of Qiuqing. Moreover, every native of the Qiuqing Continent is entitled to only one entry to the Outer Layer and one to the Inner Layer in their lifetime," Yu Qingrou explained slowly.
"We need to enter the Inner Layer," Su Chen stated in a deep voice. "Is there a way?"
