Xiao Chen slowly walked to the front steps of the temple, looking at the square where countless bodies lay in a pool of blood. He couldn't help but feel sad. He used his Divine Sense to sweep around and immediately checked the whole Yuqing Mountain. He saw Li Muxue, Luo Shangyan, Murong Xian'er, Liu Fenghuang, and Yu Yifeng were all fine, and he just felt relaxed. He took a step forward and said in a low voice, "Everyone, I'm sorry. I came out late."
Seeing him finally come out, many people were already crying with joy. The four elders of the Skygale Sect moved, turned into long radiance, and immediately attacked him. Four earth-shaking power caused a strong wind to blow in the square. However, Xiao Chen's eyes looked cold, and he punched out with the power which could destroy heaven and earth. Elders of the East and North Houses were suddenly shattered into a blood mist.
West and South elders were also affected by the shock wave and gave miserable cries. They immediately turned into electric light, escaping to the skyline. Xiao Chen said coldly, "Can you escape?" Before his voice fell, he slashed with two palms in the air and sent out two rows of golden radiance which immediately went after the two people in the south-west. "Slash! Slash!" The two elders were killed in mid-air.
Everyone took a gasp. Instantly slaying four half-step Nascent Soul Realm experts indicated that a Nascent Soul Realm expert was really invincible.
Patriarch Guanshan narrowed his eyes, saying, "Nascent Soul Realm? But this power in your body is not your own. How long do you think it can last?"
Xiao Chen said coldly, "Long enough to kill you!" After saying so, he suddenly turned into a long radiance and rushed to the sky. Patriarch Guanshan snorted coldly, and his hand turned into a huge golden palm print which moved down. The energy around was turbulent as if it could tear the void.
Xiao Chen was unafraid. He punched out, and the fist shadow was instantly magnified countless times in the void and hit the palm print like a small hill. The two destructive power met, and there was a rumble like thunder. Yuqing Mountain was shaking violently under the shock wave.
Countless people retreated far away. The battle between Nascent Soul Realm cultivators was beyond their control. Xiao Chen stood in the air, and his eyes looked like two beams of electric light which made the huge dragon under Patriarch Guanshan's feet tremble and disturbed.
In fact, it was not an ancient dragon. It's just the green drake which guarded the mountain of the Skygale Sect and was also the mount of Patriarch Guanshan thousand years ago. Xiao Chen had seen it when he was in the Human World.
Patriarch Guanshan narrowed his eyes, saying, "Boy, you have unusual power. Why must you fight against me? If you and I continue to fight today, no one will be able to win any benefits. I am afraid that some people will take advantage of it." He then glanced at Xiaoyue who was hiding in the shadows below.
Xiao Chen said coldly, "Your Skygale Sect owed me too much, and I'll get them back today!"
Patriarch Guanshan's eyes narrowed. "Yunya Zi is dead. I have avenged you. The four elders have also died in your hands. If it is not enough, I can kill all my disciples. As long as you and I join hands, we will be invincible in this world. Then we can share the world equally, how about that?"
Countless cultivators were frightened upon hearing this. They were afraid that Xiao Chen would be bewitched by the man, so they shouted, "Master Xiao, don't listen to this person."
"So much nonsense!" Patriarch Guanshan's eyes turned cold, and he immediately sent a row of Sword Qi down. Xiao Chen swung his sleeve to shatter it and said with a smile, "We don't have the same idea, so we won't walk the same path!" He then played the Cyan Dragon Roars. Suddenly, the sky and earth changed as two golden dragon shadows instantaneously went out, which frightened and made the green drake at the feet of Patriarch Guanshan tremble.
Patriarch Guanshan shattered the palm force, and his face suddenly turned cold. He said coldly, "Kid, I'm just cherishing a talent. Do you really think I can't kill you?" When he said this, he grabbed with his five fingers into the air, causing several thunderstorms to fall in succession.
Xiao Chen immediately propped up a barrier to resist the thunder but felt weak at his feet. He immediately fell several meters and was difficult to hold them in mid-air.
Patriarch Guanshan snorted coldly and waved his hand. Unexpectedly, he moved a small hill over, and there was a huge shadow on the ground.
The small hill quickly moved toward Xiao Chen, who pushed the hill back with both hands. Then, he fell to the ground uncontrollably.
Back on the ground, Xiao Chen thought that his cultivation came from the Jade Qing Seven, so he could not do whatever he wanted in the air. But Guanshan stepped on the green drake, so this man naturally took the advantage. At present, Perfected Immortal Qing Chen and the others were still maintaining the formation in the temple. With the time being, they would not be able to support it.
Patriarch Guanshan also saw through this, so he immediately ordered the green drake to fly up dozens of meters. Regardless of those demonized Skygale Sect disciples, he waved his hand to the ground to send out countless sharp Sword Qi which immediately turned normal cultivators into blood fog.
Instantly, people were in chaos and fled everywhere. At this moment, a loud noise was heard in the west sky. A green-horned beast came flying with lightning on its feet. Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed, and he immediately recognized that the man on the beast was Ouyang Yu. Why did he come?
When the green-horned beast reached nearby, the air suddenly became cold. Many people had a light frost on their brows. Ouyang Yu stepped on the beast and held the Frost Sword. A layer of ice and snow surrounded his body, and he looked like a fairy.
Xiao Chen was shocked. This person actually reached peak Core Forming Realm. Yes, Elder Tianyun took him away that day. He later must have absorbed Tianyun's cultivation.
Patriarch Guanshan also noticed him and said coldly, "The boy who cheated his master and destroyed his ancestors, are you here to die today?"
Ouyang Yu shook his head. "No, I'm here to take your life!" He then thrust out his sword as ice and snow flew all over the sky. Every piece of ice and snow is a sharp Sword Qi. However, in the eyes of Patriarch Guanshan, this was no different from a child's trick. He shook his arms and immediately shattered the Sword Qi. Ouyang Yu was also hit and then fell to the ground with his green-horned beast.
Xiao Chen stepped forth and held him, shaking his head. "This person has profound cultivation. You must not be rash." Ouyang Yu looked at Xiao Chen with surprise and said, "When did you get into the Nascent Soul Realm?" He looked around and asked, "Where's A Xue? Is she with you?"
Xiao Chen said, "Let's put this aside. Can I borrow your green-horned beast?" Ouyang Yu understood the plan, so he immediately ordered the beast to come.
"Thank you." Xiao Chen jumped on the back of the beast. The beast seemed to be very afraid of him and immediately took him up into the air and flew to Patriarch Guanshan.
Patriarch Guanshan saw that the two of them had hostility before, but now they worked together to deal with him. So, he became angry and thundered, "You two brats, die!" A Sword Qi then descended from the sky.
The green-horned beast immediately turned to avoid this sharp Sword Qi. At the same time, Xiao Chen punched out and hit the green drake. The green drake immediately let out a dragon roar which almost shattered people's eardrums. The green-horned beast was shocked by the dragon roar, so it trembled and dared not to get closer.
Xiao Chen scolded inwardly that the beast was a coward. "Will I let you get hurt?" He thundered, "Closer!" However, after hearing this, the green-horned beast actually shook its head and refused to approach. It even wanted to fall back to the ground.
Patriarch Guanshan sneered, "Hey hey. How can a hundred-year-old green-horned animal compete with my thousand-year-old drake?" Then, the green drake let out another dragon roar, which directly frightened the green-horned beast to fall to the ground.
Xiao Chen went mad because he had so much cultivation but cannot use them. If he wanted to ascend in the air or ride the sword, it would consume his True Energy; if he ascended with the Flying-cloud Stone, the stone would be shattered easily. He scolded with anger, "Old punk! It is not enough for you to hide for a thousand years? Do you dare come down to fight me now?"
Patriarch Guanshan said with a smile, "Kid, I won't come down. When your cultivation is exhausted, you can give your body to me nicely." After saying this, the drake flew up for about 30 meters.
At present, Xiao Chen was at his wits' end. The old man refused to come down, and he would be in a disadvantage if he rushed. If only he could fly with two wings! At this moment, a red figure suddenly flashed into the square. Xiao Chen's eyes narrowed. It was Liu Fenghuang. Why did she look different from before? And she seemed to have a powerful strength in her body at the moment.
"Sister Liu?"
Liu Fenghuang didn't answer him. She looked at the sky and said coldly, "You destroyed my Teal Jade Sect. Today I will let you pay with blood!" After that, the energy suddenly stirred up around her. The wind roared, and a faint sound of phoenix cry sounded in the sky.
Everyone was shocked. At the same time, they felt a force from ancient times gathering in Liu Fenghuang's body. Suddenly, a phoenix totem appeared in mid-air. Her body was burning with fire which almost shone half of the sky red.
The phoenix totem cried and turned into a red radiance which rushed down and went into her body. At this moment, a big change happened on Liu Fenghuang. Her body suspended in the air, and a pair of fire phoenix's wings appeared on her back.
"Phoenix bloodline! She has the blood of ancient phoenix!" Many people exclaimed, and even many of the older generation stared agape. They sighed and said, "Surprisingly, unexpectedly, this little girl is a descendant of the Divine."
Xiao Chen was also surprised. The Divine was an ancient clan which lived in heaven's realm. He never expected the blood of the Divine flew in her body. Did she inherit her mother's blood which was awakened today?
All of a sudden, he felt something wrong. Even if Liu Fenghuang had the blood of the Divine, she was no match for Patriarch Guanshan. So he shouted, "Don't go!" However, it was too late to stop her. Liu Fenghuang spread her wings and rushed high into the sky like a flame.
Xiao Chen immediately tapped on the ground and turned into a long radiance to catch up. The two people approached Patriarch Guanshan. Liu Fenghuang's wings fluttered and immediately turned the sky into a sea of fire. People on the ground felt the heat. Countless soldiers at the foot of the mountain were already stunned.
Patriarch Guanshan held up a barrier to resist the fire attack, and his eyes were fixed on her. He sneered, "Descendant of the Divine? I will also take your body!" He then stretched out his hand, and a huge palm appeared and moved to her.
"Get out of the way!" Xiao Chen shouted and immediately moved to the front of Liu Fenghuang like a lightning meteor. He then propped up the barrier and resisted the attack of Patriarch Guanshan. However, his feet sank, and he began to fall down again. He could not perform at his will in the air.
At this moment, he felt his waist was hugged by someone's hands, and he stopped falling. Liu Fenghuang's voice sounded in his ear. "I'll hold you, don't worry."
Although being wrapped in flames, Xiao Chen did not feel any scorching heat but only warmth. He looked back and saw a tear drop rolling down from the corner of Liu Fenghuang's eye, as if it was the sadness before parting.
