The Blade Crown was far stronger than the Demon Immortal Chu Kuangren had slain. If he wanted to leave, even the Sword Crown could not stop him.
The Sword Crown gazed thoughtfully in the direction the Blade Crown had left. "He's even stronger than he was back then."
His figure flashed as he returned to the warship. Chu Kuangren glanced at him and said calmly, "You're injured."
"Just a minor injury."
Chu Kuangren raised his hand and activated the Spring Wind Transforming Rain Technique. The spiritual qi between heaven and earth mingled with Origin Power and surged toward the Sword Crown.
He had already elevated this Emperor Technique to the level of an Immortal Art, and it had a considerable healing effect even on Immortals.
The Sword Crown's injuries soon healed. "Thank you, Master."
"What happened in your battle with the Blade Crown back then?"
His interest piqued, Chu Kuangren asked.
At this, a hint of nostalgia appeared on the Sword Crown's face. "It's all ancient history now. Back then, the Blade Crown and I agreed to a duel..."
Many years ago, the fame of the Seven Crowns had resounded throughout the Qinglan Immortal Realm. No one could rival their prominence. To claim the position of First of the Seven Crowns, and to prove his Saber Dao theory of defeating all Sword Cultivators Under Heaven, the Blade Crown had challenged the Sword Crown.
The Sword Crown had been brimming with confidence then, so naturally, he agreed.
However, in the time leading up to their duel, the Sword Crown met a woman. As the saying went, even heroes could not pass the barrier of a beauty's charms, and the Sword Crown back then was no exception.
As he spent his days with this woman, he inevitably fell in love with her.
