Su Changqing stared at Ye Tian, who was charging aggressively, and suddenly chuckled.

"I, Su Changqing, went alone to Mount Zhenwu and exterminated 124 bandits from Tianfeng Village. Yet, I don't know which scoundrel informed the West Factory of my movements, almost causing my death!"

At these words, everyone present froze. In the back, Ye Ronghuo's body trembled.

He was the one who had leaked this information.

As Su Changqing was now, he was utterly incapable of provoking him. If Su Changqing could kill Jiang Tianfeng, he could certainly kill Ye Ronghuo with a single strike.

Upon hearing this, Jin Yichuan's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked at the two, remaining silent.

"Ridiculous! You're arrogant and have offended far too many people. First my brother, then Chen Mo, Iron Claw Flying Eagle, and everyone in the entire Pacification Department knows it!" Ye Tian said with a cold laugh.

"Since you know I've offended many people, why would you, Ye Tian, be any different!" Su Changqing replied indifferently.

His voice was decisive, echoing thunderously throughout the hall.

Su Changqing didn't care at all.

Between Ye Tian and him, there was the prior incident with Ye Ronghuo, and the enmity from plundering opportunities.

There was no way to reconcile their differences; it was destined by fate.

Su Changqing had no intention of easing the tension with him.

He wanted to find out who that eunuch was.

However, he wanted to kill Ye Tian even more!

This way, there would be no future troubles.

"Iron Claw Flying Eagle hasn't appeared since he left the Pacification Commissioner's hall ten days ago. You are a cruel person, perhaps you killed him!"

Ye Tian said coldly. He stomped his foot, almost shattering the bluestone floor beneath him.

The Spring Embroidered Saber was drawn, and Xiantian True Qi condensed into a saber aura, piercing the air with a sharp sound as it slashed towards Su Changqing.

"Good!" Su Changqing laughed heartily.

He stomped his foot, and the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade beside him vibrated and fell into his grasp.

Holding the saber horizontally, he brought it down towards the leaping Ye Tian with immense force.

This saber strike possessed the might to uproot mountains and pierce the heavens.

His Profound Heaven True Qi was purely offensive, without defense—utterly overbearing!

Ye Tian's expression changed. If he received this strike, his Spring Embroidered Saber would likely be split in two.

"Damn you, dog thief!"

He quickly leaped up, soaring towards one of the grand pillars in the hall.

The Azure Dragon Crescent Blade and the Spring Embroidered Saber made slight contact, causing saber auras to splash outwards.

He clung to the massive hall pillar like a hunting eagle about to strike, his eyes sharp and fixed on Su Changqing.

"Why aren't you drawing your Frost Snow Saber? Are you trying to bully me with your shorter blade, the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade?"

"If I wish to kill you, why would I need the Frost Snow Saber?" Su Changqing chuckled.

With the Four Seasons Cloud Falling Steps beneath his feet, he pursued rapidly, his saber slashing, the saber aura covering the sky like a war god.

An inch longer, an inch stronger.

On Mount Zhenwu, when he fought Jiang Tianfeng, he had been at a disadvantage multiple times because of this.

If the Purple Blood Soft Sword hadn't entangled the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade and tricked Jiang Tianfeng into close-quarters combat, the outcome would have been uncertain.

But now, his reach was longer!

It felt truly satisfying to use his advantage in reach to overwhelm a shorter weapon.

Su Changqing's black hair scattered as his offense became fierce. With three consecutive strikes, he powerfully cleaved the massive pillar, cutting it in half. The entire hall trembled.

Ye Tian gritted his teeth, evading again and again. Su Changqing's Profound Heaven True Qi was simply too overbearing; he couldn't directly block it.

Everyone in the hall watched in shock, frozen like clay figures.

"The Ye Thousand Household has been famous for a long time, yet the Su Thousand Household can actually force him to this extent?"

"Ye Tian is strong, but Su Changqing is stronger! His True Qi is an unusual type; though it hasn't condensed into a phenomenon, within the same cultivation level, he can still gain the upper hand." Zhou Chu took a deep breath and said.

"Both are Heavenly Prodigies under my command." Jin Yichuan's eyes narrowed slightly as he gently stroked his beard.

"Su Changqing, do you dare to fight me in close combat?" Ye Tian roared, cold sweat beading on his forehead.

"Why wouldn't I dare?" Su Changqing laughed heartily at the question, putting down the Azure Dragon Crescent Blade in his hand and letting it rest by his side.

Ye Tian's eyes immediately narrowed. He leaped down, his dark saber aimed directly at Su Changqing's forehead.

The saber aura was dazzling, piercing the air with a sharp sound.

Su Changqing's eyes focused. He extended a single hand, his fair palm covered by a faint golden hue.

Indestructible Vajra Divine Art!

He actually reached out to grab the Spring Embroidered Saber. With a clang, Su Changqing's palm was cut, blood splattering everywhere.

Ye Tian's expression changed drastically. Su Changqing's physical body was actually this powerful?

He intended to split the opponent's head, yet he couldn't even sever his hand?

What was that faint golden light?

Ye Tian drew his saber, intending to leave, but Su Changqing gripped him tightly.

"Didn't you say we'd fight up close?" Su Changqing stared at him and said.

The Frost Snow Saber was drawn, and ice crystals bloomed, chilling the entire hall.

Overlord Saber! Death God Slash!

Su Changqing brought his saber down from above. The blade light slashed through the sky, heading straight for Ye Tian.

Ye Tian's face contorted in shock. He no longer wanted the Spring Embroidered Saber. Instead, he released his grip and quickly dodged backward.

If he didn't, he would die!

This saber strike grazed past him, but the blade light tore through his Flying Fish Robe, and blood splattered into the air.

The floor of the hall was split into pieces by that saber light, demonstrating the formidable power of Profound Heaven True Qi.

Ye Tian looked back, his face pale, a trace of fear in his eyes.

He was completely no match for Su Changqing.

What secrets did Mount Zhenwu hide? That should have been his!

Unfortunately, Su Changqing wouldn't tell him.

Ye Tian roared at the sky and fled.

"Where do you think you're going!" Su Changqing laughed, no longer pursuing.

Instead, he held Ye Tian's Spring Embroidered Saber horizontally in one hand and threw it.

The saber light was dazzling and shocking!

It was Overlord Saber, Death God Slash again!

Ye Tian was sure to die from this attack!

At the critical moment, Jin Yichuan finally intervened. He couldn't let one of his newly appointed Deputy Thousand Households die so soon.

His strength was extraordinary. He drew his saber and clashed with the life-threatening flying saber.

The Spring Embroidered Saber sliced through the sky, piercing deeply into the hall's ceiling and lodging above the beam, emitting a piercing hum.

"Thank you, Thousand Household Jin."

Ye Tian took a deep breath, stopped in place, clutched the wound on his chest that was deep enough to see bone, and cupped his fist.

"Su Changqing, once my injuries have recovered, I will fight you again!"

This battle had thoroughly awakened Ye Tian. He possessed the Seven Orifices Exquisite Body and was born with the Nine-Orifice Snake phenomenon.

Su Changqing's footwork was slightly inferior to his, and his saber skills, honed through battles with strong individuals like Jiang Tianfeng and the Scarlet Blood Scholar, far surpassed Ye Tian's.

Whether it was with weapons or in close combat, he had lost miserably.

He could have cultivated the Nine-Orifice Snake phenomenon.

In the future, crushing his peers and killing Su Changqing would be as easy as flipping a hand.

Su Changqing's gaze narrowed as he watched Ye Tian. Without a word, he cupped his hands slightly towards Jin Yichuan.

"Thousand Household Jin, this person almost got me killed by a eunuch. I only acted in self-defense."

Jin Yichuan nodded slightly and chuckled, "You two are both Heavenly Prides of my Garrison. Losing either of you would be a great damage. What is Iron Claw Flying Eagle compared to you? His death is insignificant. If one of you were to die, Thousand Household Zuo would likely fight me to the death when he returns."

Su Changqing cupped his hands slightly and turned to leave, sighing inwardly.

What a pity, he couldn't kill Ye Tian this time.

He had no intention of revealing the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art in front of everyone. He had merely condensed a golden light on his palm to disarm Ye Tian's Spring Embroidered Saber.

There were many similar martial skills. The third turn of the Dragon-Elephant Prajna Skill would condense golden light on both hands, making them indestructible and immensely powerful.

Iron Egg had a feud with Gu Santong over a woman.

He could reveal his Profound Heaven True Qi, and even the Black Tortoise Phenomenon if the situation became critical.

But the Indestructible Vajra Divine Art... he absolutely could not reveal it
