Chapter 2173 Pulling Out All Of The Stops
Chapter 2173: Pulling Out All Of The Stops Chapter 2173: Pulling Out All Of The Stops Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation The eyes of the black-robed old man narrowed in disbelief. He looked at his palm in horror. Finally, his gaze fell upon the sword case. “What in the world is that?!” he exclaimed. “Six Paths Sword Case,” Ye Chen replied with a smile. “I am Feng Qingyang, the Six Paths Sword God!” As soon as he finished speaking, Ye Chen took the initiative to attack. The sword case spun and crashed fiercely into the black-robed old man. Bang! The black-robed old man felt an overwhelming force crash into him, causing the blood essence in his body to tremble. He slammed his palm into the sword case, but soon discovered that he was unable to make it budge! “This…” The sword case stood firm in front of the black-robed old man. He opened his mouth wide in shock. Nothing he had witnessed today made any sense! However, one thing was certain. This mysterious young man was far too dangerous! He forced out his blood essence, and a blood sword materialized in his hand and he struck the sword case. Ye Chen smirked. At this moment, his eyes radiated with unmatched arrogance. The sword case could fit six swords, “Six swords, three swords to kill. As master of the sword case, I shall cleave the heavens!” As soon as he uttered these words, the immobile sword case emitted a brilliant light, and its powerful sword essence swept out. Whoosh! Whoosh! Sword energy fell like rain, filling the sky. The black-robed old man appeared to be facing a great threat. He hastily waved his blood sword, trying to destroy the streaks of sword energy coming toward him. However, the power contained within these streaks of sword energy was unbelievably formidable, and it was as if they were imbued with an indomitable will. His strength was insufficient to destroy them! Unbeknownst to him, even though these streaks of sword energy did not inflict serious injury, they had left numerous wounds all over his body. Blood began to drip. “Disciple, your body has reached its limit. I must depart, or you will perish.” “Three swords!” Ye Chen shouted. A green lotus emerged in the endless rain of swords, which tore the sky open and seemed to devour the heavens. It descended from the sky, pressing down upon the black-robed old man. This green lotus was formed from dense and powerful streaks of sword energy, and engulfed the entirety of Freezing Sky Mountain. “Damn it!” The black-robed old man rapidly produced a jade token. As the jade token vibrated, it formed a protective shield around him. However, when the green lotus descended, the shield shattered, and the jade token disintegrated into powder in an instant. Fortunately for him, Feng Qingyang had departed from Ye Chen’s body, and the green lotus eventually vanished. The sword case also disappeared at the same time. Ye Chen sat on the ground, feeling the backlash. The black-robed man noticed Ye Chen’s exhaustion. His eyes flickered, and he attacked instantly. At that very moment, a beam of light shot into the sky from Freezing Sky Mountain! It was Wei Ying! At this moment, Wei Ying was enveloped in a sphere of icy flames as her aura surged rapidly. She bore no injuries from before, and her eyes radiated with a chilling coldness. “If you touch him, you shall die!” Instantly, the temperature of Freezing Sky Mountain plummeted to freezing point. Wei Ying took a step forward and positioned herself in front of the black-robed old man. Suddenly, she struck out with her palm, and flames curled around her hand. This flame was exceptionally strange, and seemed to exude an otherworldly aura. The black-robed old man’s eyes widened in horror, for he had witnessed something that should not exist in this world. “This flame… Juehan Palace! You are the Palace Master of Juehan Palace… How is that possible?” “Juehan Palace still exists?!” However, before he could finish speaking, the strange icy flames penetrated the black-robed old man’s body and began to slowly devour him. The black-robed old man was consumed by terror. He hastily threw out a rune and shouted, “Save me!” However, it was already too late. The black-robed old man was incinerated on the spot, and everything fell silent. Wei Ying’s gaze fell upon Ye Chen. She smiled beneath her veil. She took a step forward, and a trace of blood flowed from her forehead. Her expression shifted slightly, and she quickly turned around. Ye Chen, who was nearly exhausted, sat on the ground and gazed at the back of the veiled girl. He felt a sense of familiarity. “Have we met somewhere before?” “Young lady, we have faced trials together. Should you not allow me to see your face?” “Of course, if you cannot remove your veil, then forget it.” After all, there was a reason many young women in Lingwu Continent wore veils. For instance, Yin Ming of the Mystic Moon Sect. Wei Ying, with her back turned to Ye Chen, did not respond. Naturally, she wished to unveil herself, but she did not want to confront Ye Chen in this manner. She was a woman, after all. Women desire to present their best selves to those they hold affection for. She wished to leave behind a beautiful impression for her first encounter with Ye Chen in the Lingwu Continent, not the one hidden beneath the veil now. Ye Chen rubbed his nose and said helplessly, “If it’s not meant to be, then let it be.” “Should you not share your name at least?” “What is your name?” “Honestly, looking at your back, I feel that you resemble a friend of mine from Huaxia. She used to be an English teacher… But never mind, as a master of a sect in the Lingwu Continent, you likely do not understand what I am referring to, let alone know what an English teacher is…” However, Ye Chen did not notice that the veiled girl’s delicate body trembled. Under the veil, she lightly bit her red lips. It was both charming and alluring. “Ye Chen, actually, I…” Wei Ying hesitated for a long time. Just as she was about to speak, a rift appeared in the sky, and an extremely powerful pressure enveloped the entirety of Freezing Sky Mountain. An intense vibration resonated from the mountain, and it seemed to quiver on the verge of collapse. The power of the Divine Kingdom’s Mu Family! On the other side of Lingwu Continent, a family in the Divine Kingdom was filled with fury! The Mu Family had suffered the loss of seven experts in the Lingwu Continent! Six early-stage Great Void realm experts and one sixth-level Great Void realm expert! This would represent an enormous loss for any family in the Divine Kingdom, so they were enraged. The head of the Mu Family slammed his palm upon the stone platform. “All elders of the Mu Family, heed my command! Utilize the Mu family’s forbidden Space-Breaking Blood Formation. Use your cultivation and blood essence as a guide to bring our enemies back here!” “I want to see what kind of heaven-reaching expert that veiled girl truly is!” The spatial rift above Freezing Sky Mountain grew larger and larger! Wei Ying’s face turned extremely pale. She had never anticipated that the Mu Family would be willing to pay such a price. If things continued down this path, both Ye Chen and herself would surely perish. Even if she possessed a trump card, it would prove useless in this situation. There was no way for her and Ye Chen to escape now, and the two of them lacked the strength to fight. As Wei Ying’s expression grew serious, a demonic shadow swept over. Then, she heard a voice in her ear. Before Wei Ying could react, her body was forcefully placed onto the Dark Ray Beast’s back. The Dark Ray Beast sensed the impending danger. It wished to accompany its master, but did not dare to disobey his orders. It carried Wei Ying, who was still in shock, and dashed away. Wei Ying attempted to struggle, but she soon realized that the mount was restraining her. She turned around and saw a young man in the distance.
