Xiao Chen, Have You Fallen in Love with Another Woman?

Just then.

Roar!

A series of furious roars rang out as more than a dozen exceptionally vicious Ironclad Demon Wolves leaped into the air at once and pounced toward Lin Qingxian.

That damned sword cultivator had actually injured their companion. They would swallow her alive.

"Damn it, run!"

A trace of despair flashed through Lin Qingxian's eyes as she hurriedly shouted at Xiao Chen.

Ye Qingxuan and the others were trembling all over in terror. They wanted to run, yet found that they could not move their feet at all. They were so frightened that even their legs no longer obeyed them!

The scene before their eyes had already crushed the last of their psychological defenses!

They had nearly lost their lives dealing with a single Ironclad Demon Wolf. With more than a dozen attacking together, who could possibly stop them?

Unless a Martial Master Realm expert arrived in person, no one could handle so many Ironclad Demon Wolves with defense so absurdly powerful!

Even an ordinary Martial Master Realm expert might be in danger of dying if they came!

Yet Xiao Chen did not choose to flee. Instead, he stared fixedly at the demon wolves in the air and slowly drew the Dragon Slayer Sword from his back.

Battle intent blazed in his eyes. This would be his first time drawing his sword, and he felt both anticipation and unease, wondering just how powerful the Heaven-Defying Demon Slayer Art truly was!

"Are you crazy? Run! The terror of these Ironclad Demon Wolves is beyond anything you can imagine!"

Lin Qingxian's expression changed drastically.

The Zhenkun Academy students all froze when they saw this.

Xiao Chen was going to fight the demon wolves?

Wasn't he overestimating himself?

Yet a flicker of emotion appeared in Ye Qingxuan's eyes. Looking at the tall, straight-backed young man before her, memories of the past surged into her mind.

Back when she and Xiao Chen went out training, whenever they encountered danger, Xiao Chen had always stood before her just as he did now. He was as towering as a mountain, giving her a sense of security.

Now that times had changed, she had never expected that when faced with certain death, it would still be this young man she had cast aside who stood in front of her!

How sigh-worthy.

It was just a pity that he was no longer that Heavenly Prodigy Rank genius. If his talent had remained peerless, the two of them should still have been sweetly together now, shouldn't they?

Alas, fate toyed with people. She could not possibly marry a piece of trash.

Everyone present believed that Xiao Chen would soon be torn to pieces by the demon wolves.

But Xiao Chen did not care in the slightest. All his attention was focused on the demon wolves in the air. He tried to recall the extreme hatred and obsession Demon Quelling Sword God had felt after the Demon Race exterminated his entire family, then began drawing his sword at high speed.

No one believed he could defeat the demon wolves!

A novice sword cultivator with a rotten, worthless broken sword—could he slay demons?

But in the next moment, something unbelievable happened.

Just as the demon wolves descended to the ground, the sword on Xiao Chen's back left its sheath. That battered black ancient sword suddenly swept out several streaks of purple sword light, and terrifying Sword Qi slashed with unparalleled sharpness toward the dozen or so demon wolves that were about to attack.

The demon wolf scales, which others considered exceptionally sturdy, were sliced apart by Xiao Chen as easily as cutting tofu.

Puff!

Puff!

Puff!

After the strange sounds rang out, more than a dozen enormous wolf heads rolled onto the ground, green demon blood flowing everywhere.

The people present stared blankly at the Ironclad Demon Wolf corpses scattered across the ground, their eyes nearly popping out of their sockets!

Such terrifying wolf demons had actually been slain by Xiao Chen with a single sword strike?

And it had been so effortless, like cutting tofu!

Was this fucking sure not some hallucination?

"Y-you... you..."

Lin Qingxian looked at Xiao Chen, her eyes filled with shock.

She had painstakingly cultivated the Sword Dao for ten years and even trained in the Nirvana Nine Swords, yet she could not even break through these demon wolves' defenses.

Xiao Chen had practiced swordsmanship for less than half an hour and cultivated the lowest-grade Heaven-Defying Demon Slayer Sword Sutra, yet he had instantly killed more than a dozen demon wolves with one sword strike?

Was there still any justice in this?

Ye Qingxuan's pupils contracted sharply as well. She stared at Xiao Chen, unable to believe what she had seen for a long time!

With such terrifying combat strength, even someone at the eighth level of the Martial Disciple Realm might not be able to compare, right?

But Xiao Chen had only just entered the Sword Dao. This talent was simply too terrifying!

She had originally thought that Xiao Chen, afflicted by the Curse of the Heavenly Dao, would surely be less talented than Xiao Lingtian. But now, Xiao Lingtian was not even worthy of carrying Xiao Chen's shoes!

To cultivate even the most difficult Sword Dao to such a level in half an hour, Xiao Chen was absolutely a monster among monsters.

She suddenly recalled that the Martial Spirit Realm's verdict on Xiao Chen had once had a second half that was forcibly erased by some mysterious power. Could there be another mystery behind it? Was Xiao Chen not doomed to die after all?

Even Xiao Chen himself was dumbfounded. Looking at the Dragon Slayer Sword in his hand, his eyes were filled with shock and excitement!

Was the Heaven-Defying Demon Slayer Art really this awesome?

He had merely swung his sword casually, yet it possessed such power?

The remaining Ironclad Demon Wolves all looked at Xiao Chen with a flicker of fear in their eyes. Their battle intent had long since vanished. Abandoning their companions' corpses, they turned and fled at once!

No matter how hard they thought, they could not understand how such a terrifying human had suddenly appeared near Sword Immortal Village.

The Demon Race was naturally gifted. When facing humans of the same realm, they could crush them most of the time!

Yet today, so many wolves had nearly been wiped out by a brat at the seventh level of the Sword Disciple Realm. It was utterly absurd!

Sword cultivators really were too monstrous!

Seeing the demon wolf pack flee in terror from Xiao Chen, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Qingxuan walked over to Xiao Chen. Looking into his star-like eyes, a faint blush appeared on her face as she said in a soft, sweet voice, "Xiao Chen, I never expected you to possess such great talent in the Sword Dao. I underestimated you before. Actually, your younger brother forced me to break off our engagement that day. I never wanted things to turn out this way!"

The Zhenkun Academy students all froze when they saw this.

The ever-proud Ninth Princess of Great Xia was actually lowering her head to Xiao Chen?

Who would dare believe it?

"Ye Qingxuan, stop putting on an act before me. Although Xiao Lingtian is an ungrateful wretch, you're no good thing either! You must have been thinking about breaking off the engagement for a long time, ever since my dantian was shattered, right? What, now that you see I've recovered, do you regret it?"

Xiao Chen quickly stepped back three paces, putting distance between himself and Ye Qingxuan as he sneered coldly.

Ye Qingxuan's eyes widened at once. Her proud heart felt as if it had suffered a heavy blow.

Had Xiao Chen taken the wrong medicine?

She had kindly lowered herself to show him favor, and this was his attitude?

At the time, his dantian had shattered and he had become crippled. Was she supposed to marry a useless man?

Breaking off the engagement back then was not excessive at all!

"Xiao Chen, I know you resent me, but haven't you always been very tolerant of me? Can't you forgive me just once? Perhaps we..."

"Ye Qingxuan, I advise you not to waste your time on me. From now on, you and I are destined to be strangers!"

Xiao Chen had long seen through this woman's true nature. How could he still hold even the slightest affection for her?

After hearing this, Ye Qingxuan suddenly swept her gaze toward Lin Qingxian beside them, a spark of jealous fury flashing in her eyes. "Xiao Chen, have you fallen in love with another woman?"

In her eyes, Xiao Chen had loved her for so many years. How could his feelings change just like that? The only possibility was that he had gotten together with Lin Qingxian!

She had only broken off the engagement with him such a short time ago, yet he had already transferred his affections to someone else. This was simply too much!

"Ye Qingxuan, I have nothing to do with you anymore. Who I like is none of your business!"

A trace of impatience appeared on Xiao Chen's face.
