ise."Xiaofan…""Brother Ye..."Suddenly, the entire room erupted in cheers. After the initial surprise, the women all rushed over to Ye Bufan's side.As the saying goes, absence makes the heart grow fond...Tang Jianchen held a bronze greatsword, a faint smile playing on his lips, brimming with confidence.
Generally speaking, heavy swords excel at guarding. While they may not be as nimble as ordinary swords, they are unmatched in defense.
He flipped his wrist, and the bronze greatsword swung forward, creating a curtain of light that sealed off all space.
In his view, such a powerful defense was simply impossible to breach.
Just then, a muffled "poof" echoed in his ears. The sword glow pierced straight through the bronze giant sword.
"That..."
Tang Jianchen's expression changed drastically. This was a middle-grade fairy weapon in his hand, and he never expected it to be unable to withstand the opponent's sword glow.
It was too late to dodge at this point, the opponent's sword aura was simply too fast, arriving before his brow in the blink of an eye.
Faced with this situation, he could only desperately circulate his immortal essence, hoping that the protective Immortal Gang would be able to withstand the opponent's sword energy.
The result, however, disappointed him once again. Gong Qingxuan's sword light could even pierce through bronze artifacts, how could Xian Yuan's defense possibly withstand it
In a moment, a sharp pain shot through his brow.
"This…"
Tang Jianchen was so terrified that his soul nearly fled. As the head of Gujianmen, he could be said to have ruled over Donghua Heaven. He never expected that as soon as he arrived in Qingwei Heaven, he would be defeated in a single move.
Just when he thought he was surely going to die, suddenly the sword light stopped, hovering above his brow without moving forward.
"Uh..."
Although he had barely managed to save his life, Tang Jianchen dared not relax for a moment. After all, the other party could take his life at any time.
At the sight of this, all the disciples of Gu Jian Sect were completely dumbfounded, including Elder Patriarch Qu Chengkun.
I originally thought that with the sect master personally taking action, I could definitely avenge my children and grandchildren. But I never expected that I wouldn't even be able to withstand a single move from them.
Lu Gongming next to him was the same, originally he secretly gathered his immortal essence.
If the two of them were evenly matched, he would step forward to help, and together the three of them would defeat Gong Qingxuan. This could be considered revenge for the previous arrow that had been fired at him.
I never expected that after waiting for so long, the result would be like this.
As fellow sect masters, the other person's strength was beyond imagination. Even if the two of them teamed up, they were no match.
Upon seeing this, he hurriedly dissipated his spiritual energy, bowed his head, and dared not reveal any further indication, fearing that Palace Qingxuan might discover him.
Ye Bufan could only shake his head secretly, marveling at the strength of his master. His cultivation was simply unfathomable.
Once upon a time, getting stronger and stronger, it seems like there's no limit to how powerful they can become.
Just now, a nascent Immortal King was defeated with one move. Now, even an Immortal King of the middle stage can't withstand a single sword strike.
Being pinned at the brow by a sword beam, his skin was pierced and blood trickled from his nose, dripping onto his feet.
Tang Jianchen swallowed hard, and at the face of life and death, he could only put aside his Sect Leader's dignity.
"I concede!"
Gong Qingxuan raised her hand, and the sword glow flew into her palm, disappearing.
Though, Tang Jianchen didn't relax at all. The opponent was too powerful; if they could kill him the first time, they could do it again. It wasn't simply a matter of a sword beam.
Gong Qingxuan looked at Lu Gongming: "Do you have anything to say"
"I... I give up too!"
Even a mid-stage Immortal King had to admit defeat, so what could he, just an early-stage Immortal King, possibly withstand
For the same reason, Lu Gongming also chose to yield after a moment's hesitation.
Although I coveted the pure scripture, my own life was ultimately more important.
Gong Qingxuan said faintly: "Since you two have both admitted defeat, then apologize to my disciple and swear that from now on, when you meet, you will avoid each other three steps away and not allow any offense."
"This…"
Both Tang Jianchen and the other person looked embarrassed, they never expected the other party to make such a request.
They all remained silent, for he was the master of the occasion while the other was merely a junior. To have himself humiliate in public would leave him with no face to show afterwards.
"Well, not willing"
Gong Qingxuan's voice was icy. "Do as I say, or die!"
All eyes were on the scene in stunned silence. Never before had they seen two Immortal Kings reduced to such a state of helplessness.
"Gong Qingxuan, don't go too far…"
The elder beside, Qu Chengkun, jumped out. This man harbored a burning hatred for his enemy's family, and couldn't find a way to avenge them. Now, filled with rage, he was furious.
But before he could finish his words, a sword glow pierced through his brow.
Then, the sword light swept across again, obliterating the soul as well.
Now everyone present was horrified. Even a Great Luo Xian peak master couldn't muster the courage to even be angry in front of such power.
Gong Qingxuan acted as if she had done something trivial and looked at the two people again: "My patience is limited, I only give you three breaths of time, three...two..."
"I was wrong, I apologize!"
Lu Gongming was the first to lower his head. He now considered it certain that if Gong Qingxuan made another move, he wouldn't even have the ability to resist, and would be destined for a dead end.
He bowed deeply to Ye Bufan: "I was wrong before, and now I formally apologize!"
I, Lu Gongming, swear to the heavens that from now on, wherever Young Master goes, I will retreat three steps and never dare to offend him in any way!
"Whoever breaks their oath, may heaven strike them with lightning and destroy both body and soul!"
"This..."
Those beside him were dumbfounded. This was a celestial king, bowing his head and apologizing!
Tang Jianchen sighed: “This old man also apologizes to Young Master Ye. From now on, wherever the young master goes, we will yield and retreat, never daring to offend. If I break my oath, may my sword be destroyed and my life perish!”
Both parties, disregarding their pride, lowered their heads and apologized profusely. They also made solemn vows.
Cultivators generally place great importance on their oaths because they must overcome the Heavenly Tribulation. They rarely make oaths and never break them once made.
After both parties had sworn their oath, Gong Qingxuan said calmly, "Since you've worked hard to cultivate your arts, scram! And don't ever dare trespass on the Liuguang Sword Sect again!"
Her words were impolite, but Tang Jianchen and his disciple did not dare to show any dissatisfaction. They turned around and left with their disciples.
The fairy world is like that, if your strength isn't as good as others', it's already a blessing to be able to keep your life. Where would you have the time to worry about dignity
Seeing the two Immortal Kings disappear into the horizon with their subordinates, everyone present was still filled with excitement and awe.
Though they had previously speculated that the Sect Leader's cultivation was extremely powerful, they never imagined it would be to such a degree.
Slaying a Great Luo Immortal at its peak with one sword, and crushing two great Immortal Kings with a single hand, this level of cultivation is simply awe-inspiring.
Meanwhile, their eyes looking at Ye Bufan were filled with envy. To be favored by the sect leader to such an extent, his future achievements were simply limitless.
Some were joyful, some sorrowful. Bai Lingpu and Zu Fangkui's hearts had sunk to the bottom of a valley. Both lowered their heads, afraid that the sect master would notice them.
They stirred up trouble before, trying to use others to get rid of Ye Bufan. They never expected things to turn out this way.
"Alright, everyone go back."
Gong Qingxuan did not look at the two people, but just waved her hand, letting everyone disperse. Then she said to Ye Bufan, "Follow me!"furious, having been repeatedly humiliated by Ye Bufan before. Now that he made a move, he showed no mercy.Shao Feng's mouth curled into a sneer, his face full of disdain."You think you can lay a hand...
