"This place is the forbidden area passed down by Divine Sword Mountain. What lies within, none of us know. Yet this kid suddenly appears here with such a terrifying Divine Sword in hand—aren’t you suspicious?"
"Isn’t this suspicious? With the status of this kid, how could he possibly possess such an awful Divine Sword?"
"This Divine Sword must have been in the forbidden area, then acquired by this kid, so surely this sword belongs to Divine Sword Mountain!"
Wang Cheng pointed at the Zhushen Sword in Xiao Yifeng’s hand, speaking with clarity and precision.
Many strong ones from Divine Sword Mountain present started believing them, as Wang Cheng indeed made a reasonable point.
"Heh, I’ve seen shameless people, but I’ve never seen someone as shameless as you!"
Xiao Yifeng glanced coldly at Wang Cheng, sneeringly saying:
"I haven’t even confronted you for blasting us three into the Godslayer Sword Formation, yet you covet the weapon in my hand."
"And to say this sword belongs to your Divine Sword Mountain is truly laughable!"
"What? Wang Cheng, did you send them into the Godslayer Sword Formation?"
Jiang Fangtian looked at Wang Cheng and suddenly asked.
"How could that be possible? How can his one-sided tale be trusted?"
Wang Cheng said coldly, glaring at Xiao Yifeng:
"Kid, hand over the Divine Sword in your hand quickly, or don’t blame me for being rude to you!"
"Come on then, I’ve been meaning to settle the score. Anyone who tries to kill me, I won’t spare them. You and your son both must die today!"
Xiao Yifeng’s voice was chilly as he shouted, his eyes emitting terrifying sharp gleams as he stared at Wang Cheng and his son Wang Haoran.
"Hmph, kid, you’re too arrogant. Just by yourself, dreaming of killing my son and me, wishful thinking!"
Wang Cheng regarded Xiao Yifeng with a look of disdain.
"Anyone I, Xiao Yifeng, want to kill shall die!"
Xiao Yifeng shouted coldly, waving his hand and sending the flame formed by the fusion of Crimson Flame Heavenly Fire and Profound Ming Heavenly Fire toward Wang Cheng. The latter’s eyes narrowed as he waved his hand.
A terrifying power of the Sword Dao Principle exploded, scattering the Saint Fire.
At this moment, the Purifying Lotus Flame appeared directly in front of Wang Haoran.
Before he had time to react, it devoured him.
Wang Haoran didn’t even have time to scream, turning into ashes on the spot.
"No..."
Seeing this, Wang Cheng’s expression changed drastically, his cry was heart-wrenching, and his eyes seemed about to pop out.
Even others’ eyes flashed with shock.
No one expected that Xiao Yifeng’s true target was Wang Haoran.
And that he dared to kill him right in front of the Sixth Sword Master of Divine Sword Mountain.
Such audacity is beyond ordinary.
The expressions of everyone present kept changing; Xin Yan’s eyes glimmered with a peculiar hue as she looked at Xiao Yifeng.
"Damn kid, I want you dead!"
Wang Cheng’s eyes seemed about to pop out, filled with Blood Fiend Light as he stared at Xiao Yifeng, his body erupting with boundless killing intent.
This intent surged to the heavens, as if to destroy the very earth and sky.
The terrifying power of Eighth Level Mastery Realm burst forth, overshadowing the entire arena.
Everyone present felt a suffocating and oppressive sensation, with a feeling of doom.
Xiao Yifeng immediately activated Starforce to contend against it.
"Wang Cheng, calm down!"
Jiang Fangtian then stood in front of Wang Cheng.
"Jiang Fangtian, get out of my way. Today, my son died by his hand; even if the Sect Master comes, I will kill him. There will be no coexistence between him and me!"
Wang Cheng’s face was ferocious, his eyes gleaming with blood thirst, his body overflowing with boundless killing intent.
"Wang Cheng, you..."
Jiang Fangtian looked at Wang Cheng, about to speak more, when a figure suddenly interjected.
"Jiang Fangtian, why bother yourself in revenge for one’s son?"
At this time, a middle-aged man in a black robe with a somber face walked over, his body emanating a similarly terrifying aura.
He was Chen Tian, the Seventh Sword Master of Divine Sword Mountain and Hao Jun’s mentor.
"Chen Tian, block him for me, and I’ll owe you a favor!"
Wang Cheng shouted at Chen Tian.
"Oh, really? Very well then!"
Chen Tian’s somber face revealed a smile, as he positioned himself in front of Jiang Fangtian, clearly intending to block him.
"Chen Tian, you..."
Jiang Fangtian’s expression changed as he looked at Chen Tian.
"Jiang Fangtian, no matter how talented a genius is, he hasn’t reached the level of a Strong One. The weight between him and a Sword Master at Eighth Level Mastery Realm—you should understand."
"Are you willing to compromise Divine Sword Mountain’s potential loss of a Sword Master about to reach Titular Dominator Rank for the sake of an unripe talent?"
Chen Tian snorted coldly at Jiang Fangtian.
"Kid, today I will tear you apart and let you die amidst endless pain!"
Wang Cheng’s eyes swept towards Xiao Yifeng again, his voice ominously cold.
Xiao Yifeng remained silent, tightly gripping the Zhushen Sword.
Just as Wang Cheng reached out toward Xiao Yifeng, when he was about to strike.
A cyan sword ray suddenly slashed forth, forcing Wang Cheng to retreat.
"Who?"
Wang Cheng’s face darkened as he demanded.
"Me!"
A crisp voice echoed as a man in his thirties walked over.
It was Li Bai, who had drunk with Xiao Yifeng just two nights ago.
"Li Bai, it’s you! You also want to meddle in my affairs!"
Wang Cheng eyed Li Bai, his face darkening, shouting directly.
"This young brother gave me a pot of fine wine; I owe him a favor, naturally, I must return it!"
Li Bai approached, saying with a calm demeanor.
"Li Bai, don’t think that becoming the Tenth Sword Master grants you the qualification to oppose me. Your strength is still far lacking!"
Wang Cheng coldly shouted at Li Bai.
"The Tenth Sword Master!"
Xiao Yifeng’s eyes flickered with surprise as he looked at Li Bai, not expecting the latter to be a Sword Master of Divine Sword Mountain.
"Is that so? Are you sure?"
Li Bai smiled gently, his body simultaneously erupting with the power of the Eighth Level Mastery Realm, his strength similar to Wang Cheng’s.
"You’ve actually reached the Eighth Level Mastery Realm!"
Seeing Li Bai’s power, Wang Cheng’s eyes revealed a shocked expression.
The other members of Divine Sword Mountain present were also slightly surprised, as Li Bai was the youngest among the Ten Great Sword Masters.
Having cultivated for less than eight thousand years yet already reaching such a terrifying level.
And a hundred years ago, he became the Tenth Sword Master of Divine Sword Mountain with Dominator Realm Seventh Level power.
Now, within a century, he has reached Dominator Realm Eighth Level, only a step away from Titular Dominator.
This was extremely shocking.
