Chapter 106: Ye Xuan Is a Bit Too Pitiable

In the Jade Fox Palace, everyone’s eyes widened in astonishment as they beheld the exceptionally beautiful and majestic Banished Immortal Sword Technique unfolding on screen.

Despite the current era where every major immortal sect is recruiting disciples, and mortals have opportunities to join these sects and learn even their most secret techniques, the Exile Sword Technique remains an exceedingly rare and precious art.

At this moment, executed by a mere mortal, the technique captivated even immortals.

However, in the next moment, Yu Tieshan let out a cold laugh, slowly stepping forward. His energy sword danced in his hand while he stepped out in a profound stance, mirroring the moves of Hu Wanquan.

Reciting a sword poem, he pointed his sword towards the heavens, sending sword energy soaring into the sky. The sky seemed divided by their energies, each claiming a piece of the heavens.

But compared to Hu Wanquan’s technique, Yu Tieshan’s was fiercer and more splendid.

Startled, Hu Wanquan looked at Yu Tieshan in disbelief: “Yu Tieshan, you... you’ve actually mastered the Banished Immortal Sword Technique?! Impossible!”

Yu Tieshan laughed heartily: “To be honest, I was the most surprised. Who would have thought that the technique, which I had altered haphazardly, would be mastered by you in such a manner? It seems your talent might not be inferior to mine!”

Shocked, Hu Wanquan stammered: “Impossible! Are you saying I’ve been framed?”

As the two readied their swords, it was evident that Yu Tieshan’s technique was superior, ensuring Hu Wanquan’s defeat in their imminent clash.

Yu Tieshan said smugly: “You never really understood me, brother. From the moment I saw you, I knew you weren’t a good person. I made you believe that our master intended to marry our sister to me and pass on the sword manual to me, causing your jealousy...”

Laughing, he continued: “It’s funny, after I attacked our master and used corpse manipulation techniques on him, you killed him again. And to think our sister, who hated you, actually loved you to the core, marrying me while her heart belonged to you! I take great joy in this irony!”

Hu Wanquan: “–!!!!”

——

“Ah–!!!” In the scene, Yu Tieshan and Hu Wanquan simultaneously unleashed their sword intents, attacking each other. Their sword energies collided in front of them, creating a massive explosion that ripped through the sky, carving a hundred-foot-deep trench in the earth.

However, Hu Wanquan, who practiced the disordered Banished Immortal Sword Technique, was no match for Yu Tieshan.

The next moment, he felt his sword energy waning, overwhelmed by Yu Tieshan’s sword energy and engulfed in the torrent of sword aura.

“Pfft–!!!” After the clash, Yu Tieshan couldn’t help but spit out blood.

“Damn... My body has reached its limit... I originally planned to take over that kid Ye Xuan’s body... but now, with such an unforeseen turn of events and having exerted all my strength here, I can only make do with this fool’s body.”

Saying this, he approached Hu Wanquan’s corpse, looked at it, and raised his hand to recite a chant.

“With my blood, I seize your body; with my soul, I seize your spirit–!”

Next, Yu Tieshan turned into a cloud of blood mist in front of Hu Wanquan. Within the mist, a shadowy figure could be faintly seen.

This figure, along with the blood mist, entered Hu Wanquan’s corpse. The next moment, Hu Wanquan’s body, which had been severely damaged by sword energy, began to heal gradually. It looked as if two people had merged into one.

This scene was clearly seen by Ye Xuan, who hid under a tree nearby. It turned out that Ye Xuan knew he couldn’t outrun either of them, so he believed the most dangerous place was the safest.

While they were fully engaged, he circled back and hid in the shade of the tree. However, he didn’t expect to witness this horrifying scene and hear his master’s words.

——

“Sss...” Watching this dark scene unfold, everyone involuntarily gasped. For Ye Xuan, witnessing and hearing all this was too dark and too despairing.

So, his master had planned to seize his body all along? If it weren’t for Ye Xuan’s cleverness, how could he have heard these terrifying words?! Honestly, Ye Xuan was quite pitiable...
