"Father, your cultivation level is so high!"
Xuanyuan Jingcheng replied indulgently, "Compared to my daughter, I am still far from being a father."
Xuan Yuan Qingfeng said with some concern, "Father, how can you still be in the mood for jokes at a time like this?"
"What if my two uncles find out and that old thief comes after me?"
Xuanyuan Jingcheng pulled Xuanyuan Qingfeng along, speeding through the forest.
He looked at the majestic green mountains in the distance and said with confidence.
"If he dares to chase after us, Father will send the Ancestor to his death!"
Even if Xuanyuan Jingcheng's martial arts have greatly improved, how could he possibly be a match for the patriarch?
Thinking of his usual complaints to his father, to which his father would always remain silent and meek, Xuan Yuan Qingfeng felt a pang of sadness and his eyes immediately filled with tears.
"Father, if we can't win, I will die with you and never let that old villain succeed."
Xuanyuan Jingcheng laughed and said, "My daughter is destined to be a heroine leading the Xuanyuan family; she won't die here."
Xuanyuan Qingfeng had the spirit of a man since childhood, but unexpectedly, he was targeted by the old thief Cannon Armor before he could even become a talent.
Seeing Xuan Yuan Jingcheng's warm smile, Xuan Yuan Qingfeng's tears flowed uncontrollably.
As the two were speeding along, two figures suddenly appeared from the side ahead.
In the light drizzle, two middle-aged men dressed in blue robes blocked the way.
"Big brother, you've been hiding your skills well. Luckily, our ancestor was prepared, otherwise you really would have escaped."
Upon seeing the two men, Xuan Yuan Qingfeng was not only enraged, but also drew his sword.
"Xuanyuan Jingxuan, Xuanyuan Jingyi!"
"Get out of here, you two shameless beasts!"
Xuanyuan Jingxuan chuckled, "Niece, you're the one who doesn't understand right from wrong. You're involved in the prosperity of the Xuanyuan family, how could your second and third uncles let you run away like this?"
"After you followed the Ancestor, we were no longer your uncles, but your grandsons. Your martial arts have greatly improved, and you are now in charge of the Xuanyuan family for the Ancestor. How wonderful!"
Hearing these shameless words, Xuan Yuan Qingfeng could no longer tolerate it. "You beast, shut up!"
However, just as he opened his mouth, a green shadow flashed beside him, and Xuan Yuan Jingcheng took a step forward more than ten zhang!
Xuan Yuan Qingfeng could see it clearly: Xuan Yuan Jingcheng had his arms outstretched, his hands forming a sword-finger gesture, and his true energy seemed to spring forth from nowhere, stirring up the misty drizzle.
In the blink of an eye, Xuanyuan Jingcheng stood between his two brothers, his sword-like fingers pointing at their foreheads.
"Tsk! Tsk!"
With two soft sounds, Xuan Yuan Jingxuan and Xuan Yuan Jingyi both coughed up a spurt of hot blood from the back of their heads, their pupils dilated instantly, and their faces still held an exaggerated look of fear.
"A massive... massive... massive celestial phenomenon!"
The two men were easily sent flying by Xuan Yuan Jingcheng, like tattered sacks.
"A brother like this is better off without!"
After making his move, Xuanyuan Jingcheng immediately retreated to his daughter's side, because an ugly figure with white hair and beard suddenly descended from the sky.
A hideous, twisted smile appeared on that ugly old face.
He floated in mid-air, giving Xuan Yuan Qingfeng a fiery look.
Then, staring at Xuanyuan Jingcheng, he slowly said, "Your wife is very radiant."
"I imagine my daughter won't be any less..."
Chapter 232 The Pledge of Allegiance: Zhao Fengya! Xuan Yuan Da Pan is dead!
When Xuanyuan Jingcheng and his daughter were stopped by Xuanyuan Dapan, several miles away on a small path, two masters were strolling leisurely in the rain.
Despite being in the rain, the two were dressed neatly, and the raindrops were gently deflected by the sword energy.
One of them was none other than the old sword god Li Chungang, who had come specifically to watch the spectacle. After visiting the tomb of the Green Robe of Fengdu, he wandered around without any worries.
Another middle-aged man was riding a donkey backwards, holding a peach blossom in his hand, looking quite relaxed and content.
The old sword god Li Chungang and the peach blossom sword god Deng Tai'a are both at the half-step earth immortal realm, and can be said to be the two strongest swordsmen in the Li Yang Dynasty.
"Old Sword God, since you said you would no longer get involved in the mess between Beiliang and Shazhou, why did you come here in the first place?"
Li Chungang pulled a chicken leg from his pocket and began to eat it with relish. "Of course, I'm here to watch the show."
"Xu Xiao announced to the world that so many martial arts sects have come, including Longhu Mountain, Wudang Mountain, Dongyue Sword Pool, the Xuanyuan family of Huishan, and even relatives like you."
"So many experts have come. Xu Xiao is going to use the Li Yang Jianghu to deal with Li Chang'an. The Tang Prince's Mansion is also full of hidden talents. This is a major event that only happens once every few decades in the Jianghu."
Deng Tai'a shook the peach blossom in his hand, denying Li Chungang's statement, "I am not related to Xu Xiao."
"I have only received a great favor from the late Princess Wu Su. I have come here to repay that favor, just like you helped Beiliang back then."
Deng Tai'a was the illegitimate son of the Wu family's sword tomb and was somewhat related to Wu Su. Wu Su helped Deng Tai'a during his most difficult time and even taught him some swordsmanship.
Therefore, Deng Tai'a did not help Xu Xiao and Xu Fengnian, but because of Wu Su's kindness.
The two were chatting casually when they were suddenly startled by an astonishing celestial phenomenon several miles away.
A fierce storm raged on a hillside, with hurricanes and torrential rain sweeping up the landscape, and bolts of lightning descending from the sky!
Even from miles away, one can see amazing celestial phenomena and hear roaring thunder!
Li Chungang took a bite of his chicken leg and said with great interest, "The battle between the martial arts grand celestial phenomenon and the Confucian grand celestial phenomenon!"
"Generally speaking, the martial arts Vajra, Finger Profound, and Celestial Phenomenon are stronger than the Buddhist Vajra, the Taoist Finger Profound, and the Confucian Celestial Phenomenon."
"But once you enter a higher realm, things can get complicated. After all, you, Deng Tai'a, are considered a martial arts master of the Great Celestial Phenomenon."
"However, your cultivation is higher, almost on par with mine, so the younger generation in the martial world gives you face and calls you the Peach Blossom Sword God, a half-step sword immortal!"
Li Chungang is a senior, and his current level of attainment is indeed higher than Deng Tai'a's.
He pointed to the place where the Xuanyuan grandfather and grandson were fighting and said, "The old sword god is right. That martial artist's Great Celestial Phenomenon realm is only slightly inferior to mine."
"His opponent, the Confucian Grand Celestial Phenomenon, was clearly unstable in his realm, and his strength was inferior."
While Deng Tai'a was still talking, Li Chungang had already quickened his pace, clearly driven by his curiosity to watch the excitement.
After all, this is a battle that is close to that of a terrestrial deity, and it is not something that can be seen everywhere.
Amidst the wind and rain, blood was seeping from the corner of Xuanyuan Jingcheng's mouth, clearly indicating that he was struggling to hold on.
Xuanyuan Dapan has a solid foundation. Although his path is crooked, his strength has been accumulated little by little.
Xuanyuan Jingcheng's time for studying and comprehending the Dao was relatively short, and his ambitions were not fully realized, so he was gradually becoming no match for Xuanyuan Dapan.
Amidst the wind and rain, bolts of lightning struck, and Xuan Yuan Jingcheng's pale face contorted with rage in the flashes of electricity.
"The entire Xuanyuan family, under the leadership of the patriarch, has become a den of iniquity!"
"It's time for the filthy Xuanyuan family to change!"
Hearing Xuan Yuan Jingcheng's angry accusations, Xuan Yuan Dapan only coldly laughed.
"Naive! There's no clean place in this world. You're just a scholar. Even if you've entered the Great Celestial Phenomenon realm, you're no match for the Ancestor!"
Xuanyuan Jingcheng glanced at his daughter, then roared into the hurricane, "So what if he's a scholar!"
Don't laugh at the scholar for lacking courage; he dares to make heaven and earth sink into the sea!
With his true energy surging, Xuanyuan Jingcheng threw a punch, but it was firmly blocked by Xuanyuan Dapan's protective true energy.
Xuanyuan Dapan looked smug, his smile revealing contempt. "Your Great Celestial Phenomenon can't kill me."
As the two were facing off, Li Chungang and Deng Tai'a arrived nearby.
Li Chungang clicked his tongue in amazement, “Isn’t this my defeated foe, Xuan Yuan Dapan? He’s improved quite a bit over the years.”
After taking a look, Deng Tai'a said, "It seems that the Xuanyuan family is having an internal conflict. It's best not to get involved."
Li Chungang also said, "In the martial arts world, who can truly know who is right and who is wrong?"
"Who knows if it's a tiger devouring its cubs, or a betrayal of one's master and ancestors?"
The two stood on the treetop, while several other people were rushing towards them from below.
One of them, a young man with his hair tied up, had red lips and white teeth, wore a light yellow robe, and had a hint of arrogance in his eyes.
"Zhang Heng, Sun Diaosi, hurry up! If you're any slower, they'll be done for!"
When the young man opened his mouth, it was a woman with a clear and melodious voice. Princess Sui Zhu had also happened to be nearby.
The man behind him, named Zhang Heng, was a dual-sword master at the Finger Profound Realm, and also her strongest bodyguard when she traveled incognito.
Zhang Heng was the son of the deposed emperor of Dongyue, but like Jianchi of Dongyue, he surrendered to the Liyang court.
Sun Diaosi tugged at Zhao Fengya's sleeve and advised again, "Young master, don't come any closer, or you'll get yourself into trouble."
Zhao Fengya frowned, shoved him away, and said impatiently, "Coward!"
"We're already near Beiliang. Now that Beiliang has been defeated at Shazhou, they're behaving very respectfully towards the imperial court. What danger could there be here!"
Sun Diaosi, whose martial arts skills were not high, was out of breath. "Young master, you are of noble birth, please be careful."
After the old eunuch finished speaking, he glared at Zhang Heng and said, "It's all your fault. You said this was a battle between people at the Celestial Phenomenon Realm, a rare sight."
