Breakthrough during battle?
This kid is truly a monster!
Normally, people need to be fully immersed in a battle, especially when fighting two opponents at once.
There's no way they'd have the mental capacity to think about cultivation or improving their realm.
But Chen Yunxuan? Not only was he holding his own in the fight, but he even managed to break through at a critical moment?
This is simply unheard of! Unprecedented!
"Uncle Liu, have you ever seen anything like this?" Cheng Yushu asked, frowning.
"Never."
"Either this kid's cultivation technique is strange, or... he was always capable of breaking through to the Transcendence Realm Second Layer, and he was just suppressing his cultivation all along."
"I lean more towards him suppressing his cultivation," Uncle Liu said with a serious expression.
Suppressing his cultivation?
That was also possible.
Wei Tianfeng and Wu Yuan exchanged glances, their eyes filled with apprehension and worry.
If Chen Yunxuan was already this difficult to deal with at the Transcendence Realm First Layer, wouldn't he be even more troublesome after breaking through to the Transcendence Realm Second Layer?
Chen Yunxuan felt the surge of power within his body after his breakthrough and a smile appeared on his face.
"The Old Ancestor was right. Combat is indeed the most effective and fastest way to improve one's strength."
Chen Yunxuan looked at Wei Tianfeng and Wu Yuan and said calmly, "This battle should be over!"
"Hmph, kid, don't spout such arrogant nonsense!"
"Do you really think breaking through one layer means you can crush both of us?" Wu Yuan said angrily.
"Whether it's true or not, we'll know after a fight!"
Chen Yunxuan didn't waste any more words. His figure flickered, and the next moment he was in front of Wei Tianfeng.
Chen Yunxuan's sudden appearance caught Wei Tianfeng completely off guard. Before he could react, Chen Yunxuan's fist sent him flying.
With a single blow, Wei Tianfeng was sent flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"Holy crap! He only broke through, how could his strength change so drastically?"
"Damn it, Wei Tianfeng couldn't even withstand one punch?"
"Is this Chen Yunxuan planning to defy the heavens?"
"What do you mean 'planning'? He already is."
"Terrifying, such a terrifying young man!"
Wei Tianfeng being sent flying stunned everyone. They knew Chen Yunxuan was a monster, but they never imagined he was this much of a monster.
Wu Yuan was the first to react. The thing he wanted to do most right now was escape.
"Trying to leave?"
"Did you get my permission?"
Just as Wu Yuan was about to turn and flee, he found that Chen Yunxuan had appeared behind him at some point, blocking his escape route.
"I con..."
Before the word "cede" could leave his mouth, Chen Yunxuan threw another punch, leaving Wu Yuan in the same predicament as Wei Tianfeng.
Silence!
A silence as if heaven and earth had frozen!
No one expected that Chen Yunxuan would be the ultimate victor.
This outcome was not only unexpected for everyone else, but also for Cheng Yushu and Uncle Liu.
Uncle Liu, in particular, felt his face burning. He had just said the opponent would be exhausted after twenty moves, but he actually broke through?
Not only did he break through, but he defeated both Wei Tianfeng and Wu Yuan with a single punch.
"We lose. From today onwards, we will return to the Shangqing Sect and will not leave it again."
"Your Chen Family... has won."
They surrendered!
The two Grand Elders of the Shangqing Sect surrendered and chose to remain within the Shangqing Sect for the rest of their lives.
Chen Yunxuan alone had rendered the top sect in the Great Zhou Kingdom helpless.
Before this, anyone who said such a thing would have been considered a lunatic, a pipe dream.
But this scene was happening right before everyone's eyes.
"A joke!"
"You lost, and now you think you can just leave?"
"If I lose, will you let me go?"
"Do you really think I'm young and ignorant?"
"Today, none of you will leave!"
This was never a spar, but a battle for life and death, to determine victory and defeat, and to decide who lives and who dies!
How could anyone expect to leave after just a few words of defeat!
"You... you're going too far!" Wu Yuan and the other looked at Chen Yunxuan in anger.
"Going too far? When you, a peak ninth-level Transcendent Realm cultivator, attacked me, did you consider going too far?"
"If my strength were insufficient, I would already be a corpse."
"Having lived so long, don't you understand that this world is simply a matter of you killing me, and me killing you."
"I came here today prepared to be killed by you, or to kill you."
Hearing Chen Yunxuan's words, although everyone felt they made sense, they also felt he had gone a bit too far.
"How could there be such deep enmity between us?"
"Is there no possibility of reconciliation at all?" Wei Tianfeng said with a frown.
"There was no enmity initially, but by chance, we have ended up on opposing sides."
"Moreover, you, the Shangqing Sect, sent people to Yan Gui City to attack my Chen Family. Do you really think my Chen Family would pretend nothing happened?"
Huh?
The Shangqing Sect sent people to Yan Gui City to attack the Chen Family?
This matter, let alone the onlookers who were surprised, even Wei Tianfeng and Wu Yuan were completely bewildered.
Because, before today, they had no idea about any of this.
"Who!"
"Who in the Shangqing Sect did such a foolish thing?" Wei Tianfeng roared angrily.
"It... it was me."
The Third Elder's face was flushed red. He hadn't intended to admit it, but on second thought, since more than one person knew about it, it was better for him to say it than for someone else to reveal it.
"You... who told you to do this?" Wei Tianfeng was furious when he saw it was his son.
"I was just..."
"Enough!"
"Does it even matter who it was?"
"The outcome will be the same!"
Chen Yunxuan didn't want to listen to their nonsense. What was the point of clarifying things and asking for details?
Reconciliation was absolutely impossible!
"Young Master Cheng, please, you must save us."
"No matter what, our Great Zhou Kingdom is your family's vassal. You can't just watch us be in trouble, can you?" The King of the Great Zhou Kingdom quickly pleaded with Cheng Yushu for help.
Cheng Yushu glanced at the King of the Great Zhou Kingdom. While this play was quite entertaining, his identity ultimately made it unsuitable for him to stand by and do nothing.
"Fine, for the sake of your Wu family's honest and dutiful conduct over the years, I'll help you out."
After speaking, Cheng Yushu stood up and looked towards Chen Yunxuan.
"Chen Yunxuan, is it?"
"You're quite good. My name is Cheng Yushu, the Young Master of the Northern Region Cheng Family."
"Have you heard of it?" Cheng Yushu said calmly, with an air of superiority.
The Northern Region Cheng Family?
He was actually from the Northern Region Cheng Family? No wonder the King treated him like this. This was no ordinary person!
Everyone was shocked, completely taken aback by Cheng Yushu's noble status.
In the Northern Region, the Cheng Family was a behemoth!
"Never heard of it!"
These simple three words made everyone gasp in shock.
Wasn't Chen Yunxuan being too arrogant? To speak so presumptuously to the Young Master of the Cheng Family?
Even if you haven't heard of it, you should at least be polite!
But Chen Yunxuan genuinely had never heard of any Cheng Family.
He knew little about the Great Zhou Kingdom, let alone the Northern Region?
"Hahaha, an interesting person."
"Then you should have heard of it now, right?"
"Give me some face, and let today's matter be dropped."
"From now on, you are a friend of my Cheng Family."
"It's better to resolve enmity than to foster it. Having more friends is never a bad thing, don't you think?" Cheng Yushu asked with a smile.
"As expected of the Young Master of the Cheng Family, truly broad-minded."
"This spirit, this magnanimity, is truly admirable."
"So this is the demeanor of a disciple from one of the Noble Families. Seeing it today, it's truly extraordinary."
"Indeed. Compared to him, I can't help but feel that Chen Yunxuan is a bit too impulsive and petty."
Chen Yunxuan could hear the discussions from the people around him, and Cheng Yushu naturally could too.
The former remained unfazed, while the latter was inwardly delighted.
Chen Yunxuan glanced at Cheng Yushu and said lightly, "I think... it's not that great."
As soon as he said this, Cheng Yushu's expression changed.
Refusing a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit?
"Kid, do you really not want to live?"
"I guess I won't die."
"Hmph, then your guess is wrong!"
"Uncle Liu!"
"Yes, Young Master!"
