Divine Sword Against Thunder! Nai Qi's Stubbornness!

Divine Sword Against Thunder! Nai Qi's Stubbornness!

"Sword—come!"

A clear, ringing voice resounded through heaven and earth.

In an instant, immense Sword Intent erupted, bursting forth from his body and soaring into the sky!

"Boom—"

For a moment, the clouds overhead were blasted apart.

An invisible Sword Intent blanketed the surroundings.

Everyone looked over.

Ji Changfeng's gaze was indifferent. One hand rested behind his back while the other lifted slightly. He was calling for it—calling for his personal sword!

"Buzz, buzz, buzz—"

The invisible Sword Intent enveloped the entire plaza.

Every sentient sword-shaped Artifact was drawn by that Sword Intent, unable to stop itself from trembling.

The sight shocked everyone.

They discovered that the swords in their hands had actually reacted to Ji Changfeng's single cry of "Sword—come"?!

"No! This is my sword!"

The disciples hurriedly clutched their Artifacts.

They feared their Artifacts would leave them.

At that moment.

On the arena, Lu Xueqi discovered that the Tianya Sword in her hand had also been affected by Ji Changfeng's cry of "Sword—come."

The Heavenly Ya Divine Sword let out trembling cries.

It conveyed to Lu Xueqi that it wanted to go over and play.

"No!"

Lu Xueqi immediately tightened her grip on the Tianya Sword.

There was a hint of grievance in her eyes as she stared coldly at Ji Changfeng, stubbornness flashing in their depths.

She refused to accept this!

She wanted to prove herself to Tianya Sword!

She wanted to defeat Ji Changfeng and let the Heavenly Ya Divine Sword know that she was the Tianya Sword's master!

"Clang—"

Just then, a crisp Sword Cry suddenly rang out.

Everyone looked over.

Tian Ling'er stood below the arena with two Divine Swords in her arms. The Sword Cry just now had come from one of them.

"Whoosh—"

Under everyone's watchful gaze, Ji Changfeng gently beckoned and called out:

"Come."

The next moment.

Dragon Slayer in Tian Ling'er's arms instantly erupted with dazzling sword light.

"Clang—"

The Sword Cry echoed across the heavens.

The sword light took form, and a streak of Rainbow Light instantly flew toward Ji Changfeng.

Everyone widened their eyes, trying to see the Divine Sword's true form clearly, but unfortunately...

The sword light transformed into a rainbow. Its brilliant glow completely shrouded the Divine Sword, making it impossible to see its true form.

"Whoosh—"

The sword light tore through the air.

At last, it arrived before Ji Changfeng.

At this moment, everyone's eyes widened. They finally saw the Divine Sword's true form.

Looking closely.

The Divine Sword was azure blue, gleaming brilliantly and clear as a pool of Autumn Waters. A faint dragon-shaped pattern ran along its blade, as though a dragon soul had been sealed within...

On the high platform, several Peak Masters frowned.

They carefully examined the Divine Sword in Ji Changfeng's hand, and their expressions abruptly changed—

"Dragon Slaying Sword?!"

"The Nine Heavens Divine Weapon, Dragon Slaying Sword? Why is it in his hands?!"

Shang Zhengliang, Tianyun Daoist, Zeng Shuchang, and the others were all greatly alarmed. Their gazes turned toward Cangsong Daoist.

Because they all knew.

Dragon Slaying Sword had always been kept by Cangsong Daoist.

It had never been passed on.

But why had it appeared in Ji Changfeng's hands today?

Cangsong Daoist ignored their shock.

He stared blankly at the spirited young man in white on the arena. Seeing the youth wield Dragon Slayer and charge forward without hesitation, he was just like Senior Brother Wan a hundred years ago...

"Like! So alike!"

"As expected of..."

The words reached his lips, but Cangsong Daoist swallowed them back. He changed his words and sighed:

"Sure enough, Dragon Slaying Sword suits Nephew Changfeng best."

True Master Daoxuan lightly stroked his beard and cast an unreadable glance at Cang Song.

Beside them, Master Shuiyue had long since gone blank.

She stared foolishly at the young man in white on the arena. Two figures in her mind kept overlapping until, at last...

They became Ji Changfeng, standing before her with Dragon Slayer in hand.

A glimmer of tears appeared in Master Shuiyue's eyes. She asked Cang Song in a trembling voice:

"Senior Brother Cang Song, what exactly is going on?"

Cangsong Daoist glanced at Shui Yue and said flatly, "I passed Dragon Slaying Sword to Nephew Changfeng. What else could it be?"

As soon as those words were spoken, the Peak Masters fell silent.

Master Shuiyue opened her mouth.

In the end, she silently turned her gaze toward the youth on the arena.

Su Ru gently held Master Shuiyue's hand, worry appearing in her eyes. "Senior Sister..."

On the arena, the atmosphere had reached its peak.

Cold Girl held Tianya Sword as she looked unwillingly at Ji Changfeng, intense fighting spirit rising in her eyes.

Ji Changfeng held Dragon Slayer. Dressed in white, he stood tall and straight.

A faint smile rested on his face as he looked at Cold Girl before him and said:

"Junior Sister Lu, please~"

Lu Xueqi's expression hardened at those words.

Without hesitation, she raised her sword and thrust forward.

"Whoosh—"

The edge of the Heavenly Ya Divine Sword gleamed with exceptional brilliance.

This match had officially begun.

The wager from four years ago would finally be decided today!

"Clang—"

Pale green Sword Intent curled around the Heavenly Ya Divine Sword like a Green Snake dancing gracefully.

Lu Xueqi's face was as cold as frost as she thrust her sword forward.

Seeing this.

Ji Changfeng's expression did not change.

He gently raised Dragon Slayer in his hand.

"Whoosh—"

In an instant, dazzling green light bloomed.

Two Sleeves of Azure Serpents!

He had used Two Sleeves of Azure Serpents as well!

"Boom—"

Dragon Slayer and Tianya Sword collided.

A powerful blast of air erupted at once.

After that strike.

Ji Changfeng's expression remained unchanged.

But Lu Xueqi frowned, feeling her blood surge as a muffled groan escaped her.

She looked unwillingly at Ji Changfeng, forcibly swallowing the trace of blood in her mouth before forming a Sword Technique with her fingers and driving the Heavenly Ya Divine Sword forward again.

Seeing this.

The Qingyun Disciples below the arena exchanged looks.

Why did it feel like...

This match was just their little flirtation?

That was right.

Flirtation.

Because someone had already noticed that the sword art Lu Xueqi used was exactly the same as Ji Changfeng's.

Two Sleeves of Azure Serpents?

What...

Exactly was their relationship?

Everyone was rather confused.

On another arena.

The match between Qi Hao and Zhang Xiaofan had yet to begin.

Because...

Everyone's attention was focused on Ji Changfeng's arena.

Qi Hao said helplessly, "Junior Brother Zhang, how about we don't fight yet? We can wait until those two are done."

In Qi Hao's view.

Zhang Xiaofan could not possibly be his opponent.

After all, he was at the Jade Purity Ninth Layer.

Zhang Xiaofan was merely at the Jade Pure Fifth Layer, and his Artifact was inferior as well. What could he possibly use to fight him?!

Zhang Xiaofan scratched his head at those words. He also felt that he could not defeat Qi Hao, so he nodded.

"Alright, then I'll listen to Senior Brother Qi."

For a moment, the two of them turned their gazes toward Ji Changfeng's arena.

Watching the drama, watching the drama.

In truth, with Qi Hao's discernment, he had long seen that Ji Changfeng and Lu Xueqi's relationship seemed unusual.

At any rate, it was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

There was definitely something off between them.

Of course.

Qi Hao was even more curious about Ji Changfeng's strength.

Lu Xueqi's cultivation was nearly equal to his own. Both were at the Jade Purity Ninth Layer, and with a Nine Heavens Divine Weapon like the Tianya Sword in hand, could she force Ji Changfeng to go all out?!

On the arena.

The two Nine Heavens Divine Weapons clashed continuously.

Sharp sword auras and dazzling sword light nearly covered the entire arena.

This match had clearly become a true fight.

It was no longer an ordinary contest.

Rather...

A battle of life and death!?

Of course, for Lu Xueqi, it might truly have been a battle of life and death.

But for Ji Changfeng?

Sorry.

He had not even used thirty percent of his strength.

Lu Xueqi noticed the calm ease on Ji Changfeng's face.

A wave of unwillingness rose in her heart.

A match of this intensity had already left her struggling, yet Ji Changfeng did not seem uncomfortable in the slightest?!

No!

I can't lose!

Lu Xueqi lightly bit down on her lip.

She forcibly circulated the spiritual power within her body, making the radiance of the Heavenly Ya Divine Sword shine even more brilliantly.

"Whoosh—"

The Divine Sword possessed a spirit, unleashing powerful Sword Qi.

Facing this attack, a faint smile appeared on Ji Changfeng's face. He merely gave the Dragon Slayer in his hand a light wave.

"Boom—"

The next moment.

A fierce burst of Sword Qi erupted.

Pale azure Sword Intent directly annihilated the Heavenly Ya Divine Sword's radiance, sending it flying.

"Pfft—"

At that moment, Lu Xueqi could no longer hold on.

The blood and qi within her surged upward, and she spat out a mouthful of sweet, bloody fluid...

"Qi'er!" Master Shuiyue's expression changed atop the platform.

Su Ru comforted her, "Senior Sister, don't worry. Changfeng knows his limits."

Master Shuiyue shook her head bitterly.

Of course she knew Ji Changfeng knew his limits. What she feared was... that Xueqi, that girl, did not.

Sure enough.

No sooner had the thought arisen in Master Shuiyue's heart—

than Lu Xueqi on the arena made a certain decision.

"Whoosh—"

Lu Xueqi held her chest with one hand and tightly gripped the Heavenly Ya Divine Sword with the other. Blood trickled from the corner of her mouth, her face was somewhat pale, and a trace of stubbornness surfaced in her eyes.

Can I only use that move?
