Second Elder nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
He straightened up, glanced at the sword mark again, then turned around and walked outside Martial Arts Arena.
His steps were slower than when he came, and he walked very steadily, but the lines of his shoulders were tighter than usual, and his fingers were hanging by his sides, and his knuckles were slightly white.
When he walked out of Martial Arts Arena, he looked back and saw that Shen Fei was still standing next to the sword mark. The moonlight fell on the side of his face, and no expression could be seen.
Second Elder withdrew his gaze and continued walking to his yard. As he walked on the corridor, he was still replaying the scene over and over in his mind.
The five-meter-deep sword mark had a smooth cut surface and no unnecessary fragments. Although he was not a monk of Legend Rank, he had been stuck in Black Gold Rank 3-Star for ten years and had enough judgment on the power of high-level attacks.
The power of that sword was far beyond the scope of Black Gold Rank. If he had to find a reference, he could only think of one word - Legendary Rank. The sword just now was equivalent to the attack of Legendary Rank Demon Spirit Master.
A Black Gold Rank 4-Star young man, holding an inconspicuous black Long Sword, launched a Legend Rank other attack.
Half a year ago, he wouldn't have dared to think about this kind of thing. But now he has seen it with his own eyes, and that young man is also the head of the Sacred Family family, and he is the one he chooses to support.
Second Elder was walking in the corridor, and the night wind blew in from outside the courtyard wall, blowing his messy hair back. He raised his hand and closed it, rested his fingers on his forehead for a breath, and then put it down.
He remembered that when Shen Hong was alive, Sacred Family took a path dependent on the Dark Guild. That path seemed safe, but in fact it became narrower and narrower. In the end, he almost lost the foundation of his family.
Now that Shen Fei has taken over as the head of the family, Sacred Family and Dark Guild have completely drawn a clear line between each other, trade routes have been reopened, and the atmosphere in the clan has slowly improved. More importantly, Shen Fei's own cultivation is improving, and going very fast.
Today's sword strike convinced him of one thing - the path Sacred Family took this time was the right one.
He walked to the door of his yard, opened the door and walked in. The yard was very quiet, and the moonlight shone on the blue brick floor, making the bamboo shadows long. He stood at the door and did not enter the house immediately, but turned back and glanced in the direction of Martial Arts Arena.
The Lighting Ore over there was still on, and the light filtered through from above the courtyard wall, reflecting a small faint halo in the night sky. He looked at it for a while, withdrew his gaze, pushed the door open and entered the house.
In Martial Arts Arena, Shen Fei was still standing next to the sword mark. He looked down at the split bluestone ground and reached out to touch the edge of the sword mark.
The cut surface is smooth and flat, and the stone has no traces of being burned by high temperatures or cracks caused by brute force. It is as if the entire Stone was cut open from the inside by something at that moment.
He retracted his hand, rubbed the stone powder on his fingertips on his trouser legs, then turned and walked towards the Martial Arts Arena exit.
At the same time.
The sky above Glory City was filled with stormy clouds. Directly above City Lord's Mansion, two figures stood in the air, looking at each other from a distance.
One is Glory City's first combat force, Wind Snow Family's Dinghai Shenzhen, and Ye Mo.
He was wearing a simple gray robe, with white beard and hair, and a pale face. He looked like an ordinary old man.
But there was an invisible layer of air pressure surrounding him, the air within a few hundred meters became stagnant, and even the wind moved around him.
The other figure was the exact opposite. It was a man with an extremely tall build. His gray-white skin was covered with strange dark red lines that writhed on his body like blood vessels.
His eyes were dark golden vertical pupils, his head was bald, but there were a pair of short horns that curved backwards on both sides. He exuded a cold and violent aura. That was the strong man of Nether Domain Witch Ghost Family, Wu Man.
The strength of both of them is Legendary Peak. This is a level of power that Glory City has never faced in decades.
Ye Zong, standing on the City Lord's Mansion Front Courtyard stone steps, looked up at the two figures in the sky, his face tense.
He is already Demon Spirit Master of Legendary Early Stage, but at this moment, under the momentum of these two Legendary Peak, he still feels suffocated.
The two breaths in the sky did not collide directly, they were just floating quietly, but that kind of silence was more frightening than any violent attack.
Ye Zong can feel that Ye Mo's aura is as thick as the sea, calm on the surface, but undercurrents are surging underneath. Wu Man's aura is as strong as fire, with an undisguised aggression, crushing him inch by inch.
The air between the two seemed to be twisted into a tight string, which would break if touched with even the slightest force.
Ye Zong's palms were sweating. He knew that once the two forces really collided, the aftermath alone would be enough to level this City Lord's Mansion.
Wu Man spoke first.
His voice was hoarse, with a rough texture like metal friction, and his tone was unhurried and unhurried, as if he was chatting away from home.
"You are the master of Legendary Peak that Ye Han said." Wu Man tilted his head, his dark golden vertical pupils looked at Ye Mo across from him with interest, "I thought that in such a small place, having Legendary Early Stage in charge would be enough to hold up the sky."
Ye Mo did not respond immediately. His eyes fell flatly on Wu Man, as if he was sizing up something.
He has lived for so many years and has seen many strong people, but those with such evil and violent auras as Wu Man are indeed rare.
Witch Ghost Family is a force that ranks high among Nether Domain. Their practice follows the path of plunder and erosion, which is completely different from orthodox practice.
The dark red lines on Wu Man's body are the traces left after the Witch Ghost Family Secret Method infected Meridians.
This kind of skill progresses very quickly in the early stage, but will greatly overdraw their vitality in the later stage. Therefore, most of the Witch Ghost Family's strong men are short-lived, but everyone who can survive to Legendary Peak is a monster crawling out of the sea of blood from the mountain of corpses.
