Protect What Should Be Protected? Believe Unconditionally!

The tremors subsided shortly afterward.

The Heavenly Punishment Evil-Slaying Array that had been surrounding Chen Changqing has been completely broken.

Xuanyuan Lü knelt on one knee, blood seeping from the corner of his mouth, his eyes filled with disbelief.

How could that be?

"The Heavenly Punishment Evil-Slaying Array... was just broken by him with a single hammer blow?"

He muttered in disbelief, unable to comprehend how Chen Changqing had so easily shattered the array that represented the law, a source of immense pride for him.

Before Xuanyuan Lü could react, Chen Changqing turned his gaze to Xuanyuan Lü and looked directly at him, speaking in a cold voice:

"Laws and regulations are used to protect what needs to be protected."

"If it itself becomes a shackle that hinders progress, then smashing it is the new rule!"

Hearing Chen Changqing's words, Xuanyuan Lü was even more shocked. His lips moved as if he wanted to say something, but he was speechless again.

"Protect what should be protected?"

"Restraint?"

"Shackles?"

Xuanyuan Lü murmured to himself.

For some reason, after hearing Chen Changqing's brief words, he seemed to suddenly understand something.

Meanwhile, outside, on the Ancestral Dragon Platform.

The members of the Xuanyuan Clan were all astonished upon seeing this.

"This?"

"Another defeat?"

"Chen Changqing... is he even human?"

"Why do I get the feeling that the Spiritual Power within him is inexhaustible?"

"How many people have fallen to him before and after?"

"It seems... apart from Xuanyuan Yin of the Eighth Branch, who was defeated by Xuanyuan Long, all the other members of the branch were defeated by Chen Changqing."

Hiss!

"Is he really only at the Late Spirit Transformation stage?"

"..."

Many members of the Xuanyuan Family murmured in astonishment, their expressions filled with utter shock.

At first, they didn't pay much attention to Chen Changqing.

Even though Chen Changqing was once the top of the Azure Dragon Ranking.

Faced with so many prodigies from the Xuanyuan Clan, they had no choice but to obediently submit.

However, as the competition began, many members of the Xuanyuan Clan realized that they had greatly underestimated Chen Changqing's strength.

All the clansmen who participated in the competition were defeated by Chen Changqing.

Even Xuanyuan Ao, who had already entered the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, was no exception.

At this moment, beneath the Dragon Pillar where the Seventh Branch is located.

Xuanyuan Ao grimly at the light screen floating in the void. He was shocked to see Chen Changqing break through the Heavenly Punishment Evil-Slaying Array set up by Xuanyuan Lü and others so easily.

"He... he doesn't need to recover?"

"And it gave me the feeling that this guy never went all out from beginning to end."

Xuanyuan Ao muttered to himself, the more he thought about it, the more unbelievable it seemed.

It should be noted that Chen Changqing had just eliminated the Seventh Branch, where Xuanyuan Ao was, and before he could even leave, he encountered Xuanyuan Lü and the others from the First Branch.

Having fought Chen Changqing before, Xuanyuan Ao knew very well that Chen Changqing must have expended a great deal of energy facing him, a Tribulation Transcendence cultivator.

They thought Chen Changqing was already at his limit and would be easily defeated by Xuanyuan Lü and the others using the Heavenly Punishment Evil-Slaying Array.

But who would have thought that it was Xuanyuan Lü and his group who were easily subdued in the end?

"Young Master Ao."

"Don't forget, Chen Changqing comes from the Shu Mountain Sacred Land."

Just as Xuanyuan Ao was in a daze, Dugu Han from the Taibai Sword Sect beside him suddenly whispered a reminder.

"Um?"

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Ao's expression became even more solemn.

"Yes!"

"He comes from the Shu Mountain Sacred Land; his true expertise lies in swordsmanship and Technique Method."

Upon thinking of this, Xuanyuan Ao's mind trembled, and he found Chen Changqing even more unfathomable.

On the other side, beneath the Dragon Pillar where the Ninth Branch is located.

Xuanyuan Yun and her daughter Xuanyuan Xiaoyu looked surprised.

"Xiaoyu."

"Changqing... he won again!"

"Of the nine branches of the Xuanyuan Clan, six have already been defeated by them."

"If we include Xuanyuan Lü, then it's seven lineages!"

Xuanyuan Yun said with an incredulous expression.

Before the competition began, she never expected that Chen Changqing would achieve such results.

Hearing what Xuanyuan Yun said, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu took a deep breath before replying:

"Mother."

"Don't forget, among this lineage, besides Xuanyuan Lü, there is also... Xuanyuan Long!"

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Yun took a deep breath and nodded, saying:

"Yes!"

"I almost forgot about him."

"In the current Battle Realm, only Changqing and Xuanyuan Long of the First Branch remain."

"I wonder, if they were to fight, who would be stronger?"

Although Chen Changqing's performance in the Battle Realm this time was extremely eye-catching, far exceeding everyone's expectations.

But thinking of Xuanyuan Long, Xuanyuan Yun felt a pang of worry for Chen Changqing.

After all, Xuanyuan Long is the number one among the younger generation of the Xuanyuan Family.

Not only has his cultivation reached the Tribulation Transcendence Realm, but he also has a true Immortal master behind him.

Everyone knows that Xuanyuan Long must have received a great deal of inheritance from his Immortal master.

Among them, there is a high possibility that there are also immortal-level Technique Method Divine Ability.

"It's definitely Changqing!"

Seeing Xuanyuan Yun hesitate, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu spoke with unwavering determination.

Previously, she had doubts about whether Chen Changqing could defeat the group of the Xuanyuan Clan's prodigies.

However, as Chen Changqing demonstrated his strength, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu became even more determined.

To her, Chen Changqing was an invincible figure among his peers.

"Oh?"

Seeing that Xuan Xuanyuan Xiaoyu spoke with such certainty, Xuanyuan Yun was slightly surprised, then smiled and said:

"You little rascal, you really trust Changqing!"

Upon hearing this, Xuanyuan Xiaoyu replied:

"Mother."

"Changqing is my future husband."

"Besides, he's representing our Ninth Branch in the Annual Competition this time."

"From both a moral and logical standpoint, I should believe him unconditionally!"

After hearing what Xuanyuan Xiaoyu said, Xuanyuan Yun paused for a moment, then nodded slightly and said:

You're right.

"We should indeed trust Changqing unconditionally!"

Meanwhile, in the void of the Ancestral Dragon Platform, Xuanyuan Tian, the patriarch of the Xuanyuan Family, glanced at Chen Changqing in the light screen.

"This kid is truly remarkable!"

"Not only did he defeat Ao'er, who had some Bandit Cultivator, but he also broke through the Heavenly Punishment Evil-Slaying Array of my First Branch."

Xuanyuan Tian was secretly amazed; he hadn't expected Chen Changqing to unleash such powerful strength.

Lost in thought for a moment, Xuanyuan Tian quickly snapped back to reality, took a deep breath, and said:

"Now comes the main event."

"I wonder, who will emerge victorious between the number one among the younger generation of my Xuanyuan Clan and this Mount Shu Holy Son?"

At this thought, a hint of anticipation flashed in Xuanyuan Tian's eyes.

After all, in the current Battle Realm, only Chen Changqing and Xuanyuan Long remain.

Between them, a winner must emerge.
