Chapter 408: Xiao Yan Admits Defeat! Another Three Years?

“Xiao Yan, what are you still dazing for? This battle is already decided. You’re still young. If you couldn’t catch up with this girl in three years, what’s stopping you from trying again for another three years?”

In the past, Xiao Yan would always take Yao Lao’s advice to heart, but in this moment, as Yao Lao’s anxious words rang out, Xiao Yan remained motionless, his gaze still locked on the increasingly radiant white light in the sky.

“This is strange. What is Xiao Yan doing? Nalan Yanran has almost completed her charge, and he hasn’t made any move!” Seeing Xiao Yan’s strange lack of action, Jia Xingtian couldn’t help but comment in surprise.

“If he’s staying so calm, maybe he already has a plan. Let’s wait and see!” Fa Ma, who was confident in Xiao Yan’s strength, replied without hesitation.

“Calm? Collected? Confident? Fa Ma, are you sure you’re not mistaken?”

Hearing these words, Hai Bodong, sitting next to Fa Ma, couldn’t help but twitch his mouth slightly. From his vantage point, he could clearly see Xiao Yan’s expression. In his eyes, there was no calmness or confidence at all—only dazedness, and even a hint of terror.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Nalan Yanran’s longsword shone even more brightly. The already blinding white light surged further, until the light from the sword completely overshadowed the sun in the sky.

“Wind Extreme: Sunset Glory!”

A shout rang out from the sky, and terrifying waves of energy exploded. A fierce sword aura shot down like a meteor from the heavens, sweeping across the battlefield with devastating force. The ground beneath the energy’s pressure cracked, deep fissures spreading across the entire arena.

Feeling the immense power of the sword aura above, the Yun Lan Sect disciples hurriedly activated their Dou Qi. Streams of energy poured out from them, forming a massive protective shield that covered most of the arena. Only then did they manage to block the immense pressure of the sword’s energy.

“This is terrifying...”

Under the overwhelming pressure of the sword energy, Xiao Yan, still somewhat disoriented, finally snapped out of his trance. However, by then, the dazzling sword aura filled his vision, and it was already too late for him to dodge.

“Leave it to me, Xiao Yan...”

Seeing Xiao Yan finally return to his senses, Yao Lao quickly urged him.

“Mm!”

As soon as Yao Lao’s words fell, Xiao Yan immediately closed his eyes. When he opened them again, his pupils gleamed with a layer of white light.

With a soft push of his palm, a massive white energy shield, brimming with immense power, rapidly formed in front of him.

“Indeed, but in this situation, we can’t help Nalan Yanran win, and with so many powerful experts watching, we have no room to intervene.” Yun Leng sighed helplessly.

In the sky, seeing that her strike had failed to damage Xiao Yan’s shield, Nalan Yanran’s expression became serious.

“Looks like I’ll have to use the Earth-tier advanced Dou Technique my master taught me.”

“Sky-Splitting Sword Technique...”

As Nalan Yanran mentally invoked the technique, a massive surge of energy gathered on her longsword.

At that moment, Nalan Yanran felt her Dou Qi being drawn into the sword at an observable rate. In the blink of an eye, nearly 30% of her Dou Qi had been drained, and the surrounding energy fluctuations in the air became far more intense than before.

“All Yun Lan Sect disciples, listen up! Quickly disperse and leave the arena!” Realizing the severity of the situation, Yun Leng urgently ordered the ordinary disciples to evacuate.

“This guy... If he doesn’t admit defeat and continues relying on someone else’s soul power to fight against Yanran, I’ll step in and pull out the soul hidden by your side!” Xiao Yixian murmured, her brows furrowing slightly as she observed the situation.

However, just as the thought of exposing Yao Lao’s soul surfaced in her mind, Xiao Yan’s hoarse voice sounded.

“Nalan Yanran, today’s match, I, Xiao, admit defeat. But our agreement is not over. Three years from now, I will return to Yun Lan Mountain!”
