This unreliable fellow would surely have little trouble making his might known throughout the Moon Sea Region, or even the Gouwu Sea, in a few hundred years.
Besides, he surely had plenty of life-saving Sword Talismans bestowed by Heavenly Shu True Lord, along with all manner of mystic arts.
Qing Chen planned to enter seclusion as soon as he returned;
he would strive to open his third Brahma aperture, accelerate his cultivation, and then make a solid advance in his cultivation.
In any case, he had Spirit Stones aplenty now, so mobilizing resources would pose no difficulty.
The Sword Intent surrounding Ye Wushang gradually receded, settling into stillness.
With a casual beckoning motion, he summoned the Azure Nether Sword, which turned into a streak of light and landed steadily in his palm.
Seeing that Qing Chen had the good sense to call the battle a draw,
Ye Wushang laughed heartily, stopped dwelling on victory or defeat, and called out to Qing Chen:
"Brother Qing, that battle was utterly exhilarating! You have no idea how satisfying it was for this Sword Chief!
Could you give me one of your Communication Talismans, along with the node information for that third-tier Communication Formation Plate? Today, this Sword Chief counts you as a friend!"
With a gentle toss, Qing Chen sent a Voice Transmission Talisman and a Jade Slip recording the node information flying toward Ye Wushang, saying:
"Night Sword Chief, if you wish to fight again, send word to me whenever you like.
Still, you broke through during this battle. Your cultivation has advanced greatly, and your Sword Intent has reached profound heights. Even a late Golden Core stage cultivator might not be able to defeat you now."
At this moment, Qing Chen did not understand the immense value of Ye Wushang's friendship.
