Chapter 86: That Young Man Who Ran Faster Than a Flying Sword

"Really... shameless!"

Next to the plaza, a cultivator seriously could not help but blurt it out.

Cultivators who were able to practice cultivation all considered themselves to have transcended the secular world and that they not ordinary people. Naturally, they had a special sense of pride. According to their pride, they could lose or even die when facing the enemy. But there were many people who could not do something as shameful as this. At least, they could not do it in public.

But, how could they have known that Chen Chao had survived deep in the mountains these few years by licking blood off the edge of a knife. In order to survive, forget about this unglamorous move to dodge the flying swords, he would do even more shameless things than this.

There was nothing more precious than life in this world.

The Second Prince looked at this scene with some helplessness. He did not know much about the black-clad youth in front of him. He only knew that he used to be the warden of Tianqing County. After killing a few qi refiners, he caused a great commotion in the Divine Capital. Now, he was innocent and thought highly of by Lord Warden. He was to represent the warden faction in the upcoming Myriad Willow Convention. For this reason, an exception was even made to promote him to the position of deputy commander of the Left Guard.

As for other things, he only knew that this young man had some connection with the Xie Family, that was it.

Now, as he watched Chen Chao's response, although he did not show any emotion, he was somewhat disappointed. Chen Chao was representing the Great Liang Dynasty now. How would this behavior reflect on the face of the Great Liang Dynasty?

The Great Liang Dynasty's young people probably all had similar thoughts. It was just that they could not express them at the moment.

But, looking at the seemingly unassuming and youthful looking Eunuch Li, his eyes was full of praise at this moment. He was different from the youngsters here. He had experienced the biggest event in the Great Liang Dynasty in these few years and witnessed true life and death. He knew very well that in those kind of life and death situations, so-called face and pride held no meaning. The only meaningful thing was to stay alive, to survive until the end, that was the true winner.

So when everyone thought Chen Chao was despicable and shameless, Li Heng was very approving. If not for that the battle had yet to end at this moment, he would likely open his mouth to say something.

But in fact, not everyone present thought that Chen Chao was very shameless. At least, apart from Li Heng, Xie Nandu did not have such thoughts as well. She did not think about those things. When Chen Chao rolled on the ground to dodge the two flying swords, what she saw was not the embarrassing action, but the skin revealed by the cuts on the clothes.

It was covered in numerous scars

There was a trace of imperceptible heartache in Xie Nandu's eyes.

She had not heard Chen Chao talk about his past stories before, but it must have been an extremely difficult story.

......

......

The two flying swords returned without success, but they did not return next to He Yi. Instead, they continued hovering in mid-air.

Chen Chao got up from the ground and dusted himself off.

He Yi sighed with vicissitudes of emotion and said, "I've never met someone like you before."

Like everyone else, he also thought Chen Chao was very shameless. But other than the shamelessness, he also saw something else, which was that this youth in black had a survival instinct ingrained in his bones. He seemed willing to do whatever it took to stay alive.

Although his posture was embarrassing, looking as if he was going to be struck by a flying sword at any moment, he did manage to dodge one sword after another while moving forward, forcefully narrowing the distance between the two by ten to twenty feet.

Moreover, following this trend, as long as he continued walking forward, he would definitely be able to reach He Yi and defeat him.

A touch of panic flashed across He Yi's eyes. With a thought, one flying sword broke away from the sword formation and flew towards Chen Chao from the flank. The flying sword was extremely fast and did not give anyone time to react.

He Yi's face suddenly turned pale.

His mind was sufficient to control those flying swords, but the previous speed was already the limit. At this moment, if he wanted the flying swords to go even faster, he would have to pay the price.

But he felt that it was worth it because it would help him win this battle and end this not-so-easy spar.

If the flying swords were already fast enough before, then at this very moment, the flying swords were swift to the extreme. It was already everything that he could do at this cultivation realm.

The onlookers were holding their breath and not missing a thing.

Li Heng suddenly frowned.

As the powerhouse who was present, he could naturally see a lot. He knew that He Yi had used all of his qi to accelerate that flying sword. This also meant that although he could make the sword go faster, he could not stop it anymore.

This also meant that the flying sword would pass by in an instant. If Chen Chao did not have a way to deal with it, he would likely be pierced by that flying sword.

Thinking up to here, Li Heng looked towards the plaza, ready to intervene at any moment.

Meanwhile, in the plaza, Chen Chao who was the target of the flying sword did not seem to have noticed that extremely dangerous flying sword yet, continuing to walk forward.

His eyes seemed to only have He Yi who was opposite.

That flying sword already reached the back of his head.

Li Heng was already prepared to take action

Right at this time.

Chen Chao sprinted forward with all his might bizarrely.

He broke through the flying swords in a very short time, continuously closing the distance between him and He Yi.

What was even more terrifying was that when he ran forward, his speed actually became faster than the flying sword.

How was this possible?!
