【Chapter 127】Questioning Identity
【Chapter 127】Questioning Identity
Ye Yisheng snorted coldly and turned quickly like lightning. In an instant, he and Qi Junhao swapped positions. Before Qi Junhao could react, he gripped the sword tightly and stabbed Qi Junhao in the back mercilessly.
"Puff——" The long sword easily broke through Qi Junhao's armor and pierced into his body.
When everyone in the audience saw this scene, their eyes widened in disbelief.
One of the parties participating in the first two rounds of competition was the Qi family, and their two opponents lost the competition because they failed to break through the armor defense.
This shows that the armor's defense is extraordinary.
However, now, the armor with extraordinary defensive power was easily broken by the long sword in Ye Yisheng's hand.
How could people not be shocked?
After being shocked, everyone's eyes fell on the sword in Ye Yisheng's hand.
The sword has a slender body, a sharp blade, and is golden all over. It shines with golden light under the sunlight, which hurts people's eyes. There is a ruby inlaid on the hilt, which shines brightly.
Nice sword!
Everyone praised in their hearts at the same time.
The monk with a discerning eye immediately recognized the origin of the sword.
"Isn't this the Golden Rainbow Sword of the Jin Ao Sword Master?"
Many people originally thought that the long sword only looked familiar. After he reminded them, they thought again and realized that the Golden Rainbow Sword in their memory was exactly the same as the sword in Ye Yisheng's hand!
"The Golden Rainbow Sword is the natal sword of the Sword Master Jin Ao. For a sword cultivator, as long as the sword is there, the person is there. Now that the Golden Rainbow Sword is in the hands of the younger generation of the Ye family, it seems that the Sword Master Jin Ao has..."
"I thought that Jin Ao Jian Zun had gone to another continent, but I didn't expect that..."
"well!"
Hearing the elders from Tianyi Sect and Taihua Sect in the front row sighing about the Sword Master Jin Ao, Nangong Chenyu curiously asked Ye Rong, "Who is the Sword Master Jin Ao they are talking about?"
"You don't even know Jin Ao Sword Master?" Ye Rong was surprised.
"It sounds familiar, as if I've heard it somewhere." For a moment, Nangong Chenyu really couldn't remember where he had heard someone call this name.
Ye Rong explained, "Jin Ao Jian Zun was a famous swordsman hundreds of years ago. His sword skills were unfathomable and it was said that he had reached the seventh level of sword cultivation. The natal sword he used was the golden sword in Brother Yisheng's hand - the Golden Rainbow Sword."
Nangong Chenyu understood in his heart that it seemed that the inheritance that Ye Yishen obtained in the sword tomb was left by Jin Ao Sword Master.
By the way, he had heard the remaining souls of sword cultivators call out the name Jin Ao Jianzun in the sword domain space on the wall of the sword tomb.
The discussion of the crowd did not affect the fight between Ye Yishen and Qi Junhao on the ring at all.
The burning pain in his back brought Qi Junhao back to his senses from the shock. He swung his sword back and slashed behind him.
After a successful move, Ye Yishen quickly drew his sword and stepped back, successfully avoiding the sword swung by Qi Junhao.
Feeling the blood constantly gushing out of the blood hole behind him, Qi Junhao's face became so gloomy that water seemed to drip out of it. This was the first time in his life that he was injured by a cultivator of the same level as him.
But Ye Yishen did not give Qi Junhao time to feel sad about the passing of autumn and the passing of spring. He used the move of Falcon Piercing the Clouds, and a golden sword energy flew out from the Golden Rainbow Sword and went straight towards Qi Junhao.
Qi Junhao, sensing the danger, suddenly changed his aura and a huge force poured out from his body. He held the sword in both hands and slashed at the incoming golden sword energy.
The next moment, a green sword light flew out from the long sword in his hand and met the golden sword light head-on.
The two sword lights collided in mid-air. Qi Junhao, who was close to them, was shocked and retreated repeatedly, and only stopped at the edge of the ring.
With his blood boiling, Qi Junhao looked at Ye Yisheng who was unharmed not far away. His gaze lingered on the sword in Ye Yisheng's hand for a second, and he uttered three words through gritted teeth.
“You’re good!”
At this moment, Qi Junhao's cultivation has changed from the middle stage of foundation building to the late stage of foundation building. He used his spiritual energy to stop the bloody hole on his back, and it stopped bleeding temporarily.
"I think I'm good too!" When Ye Yishen said this, his eyes were full of regret. He was just about to knock Qi Junhao off the ring.
If Qi Junhao's cultivation was really at the middle stage of foundation building, he would definitely not be able to withstand the sword move he just made.
In terms of swordsmanship alone, Qi Junhao is obviously no match for Ye Yishen. Qi Junhao immediately put away his sword and quickly formed seals with his hands.
He obviously wanted to use magic.
While Qi Junhao was forming seals, Ye Yishen once again injected spiritual energy into the Golden Rainbow Sword. He used the move of "Wild Horse Parting its Mane" and an invisible sword energy attacked Qi Junhao.
Seeing that the sword energy was getting closer and closer to Qi Junhao, it suddenly stopped right before hitting him, as if it was blocked by a transparent wall and could no longer move forward.
Among the Ye family members in the audience, an elder exclaimed in surprise: "It's the Qi family's ancestral magical power, the Six Laws of Saint Hidden."
Ye Zhan, who was sitting next to him, couldn't help but ask, "Uncle, is the Six Laws of Saint Hidden Realm very powerful?"
"It is said that the Six-Law Saint Hidden Technique has both offensive and defensive capabilities, and is extremely powerful. It can kill cultivators with higher cultivation than itself. That junior named Ye Yisheng is going to lose."
"Uncle, are you sure you're going to lose, not die?"
"The Qi family's junior is only at the foundation-building stage. Even if he learns the Six-method Sacred Hidden Technique, he can only exert 30% of its power. What a pity. If Ye Yisheng's opponent is someone else, he will definitely win."
The Ye family members who had had the good fortune to witness the Qi family display the magical power of the Six Divine Hidden Laws all felt regretful. They have already determined in their hearts that in this competition among aristocratic families, their Ye family will be the last one.
After hearing the elder's words, Ye Rong couldn't help but say, "It would have been great if Qi Junhao had fallen off the ring just now."
"He didn't fall off the stage just now, which means he will fall down soon." Nangong Chenyu was not worried at all that Ye Yisheng would lose. If Ye Yisheng couldn't win, he still had the Chenguang Sword.
As if echoing what Nangong Chenyu said, Ye Yishen took out the Golden Rainbow Sword, and his hands kept changing gestures. The Golden Rainbow Sword increased from one to ten, and they surrounded Qi Junhao and stabbed at him.
Nine swords were blocked like the previous sword energy, and the remaining sword stabbed at Qi Junhao's right leg at the back, passing through Qi Junhao's right leg without any resistance.
In an instant, the other nine swords disappeared, leaving only the one that stabbed Qi Junhao.
Once the supernatural power is broken, the person who uses it will suffer backlash.
"Puff~" Qi Junhao spat out a large mouthful of blood.
Ye Yishen recalled the Golden Rainbow Sword.
"Impossible, impossible, how is it possible?"
Qi Junhao shook his head and staggered, obviously unable to accept that the Six Laws of Sacred Hidden World had been broken. Before he knew it, he had retreated to the edge of the ring. Ye Yishen lightly swung his sword and he fell off the ring.
Ye Rong's eyes widened. Qi Junhao actually fell off the stage!
This result shocked many people.
"Ye Yisheng wins this match, get two extra points."
As soon as the referee announced the result, an old ancestor of the Qi family stood up and pointed at Ye Yisheng and said, "This competition doesn't count. He is not a member of the Ye family at all."
Qi Junhao is the biggest trump card of their Qi family. They let him come back specifically just to get first place. Now he was defeated by a younger generation whom they had never heard of.
The other party was wearing a mask and his identity was obviously questionable.
Ye Yisheng, who was about to leave the ring, stopped and turned to look at the Qi family ancestor who was speaking, and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner: "Can the Qi family not afford to lose?"
The Qi family ancestor ignored Ye Yisheng and looked at Ye Chenyuan: "Your Ye family violated the rules of the competition and asked for external aid without authorization. According to the rules, your Ye family will not participate in the resource allocation of Qi Yucheng in the next ten years."
This statement cannot be without hurting the heart.
Ye Yisheng's strength is obvious to everyone. If Ye Yisheng is allowed to continue participating in the competition, the first place in the competition is likely to go to the Ye family.
But if Ye Yisheng is not a member of the Ye family, then in the next ten years, the Ye family will have no share of Qi Yucheng’s resources. Others will have the opportunity to obtain the extra resources.
The elder of the Lu family who was sitting on the right side of the Ye family answered, “I just heard Ye Mingwei asking who Ye Yisheng was.”
The implication is that how can someone that the Ye family members themselves don’t know be a member of the Ye family?
Ye Mingwei: “…”
Patriarch Lu also said: "I have seen all the younger generations of the Ye family, but none of them is called Ye Yisheng."
An elder of Tianyi Sect asked Ye Chenyuan: "Master Ye, is Ye Yisheng a member of your Ye family?"
Without waiting for Ye Chenyuan to answer, Ye Mingpei stood up and spoke first: "Yisheng is the offspring of my second brother. He had been training outside and only came back yesterday."
Before anyone else could say anything, Ye Mingze loudly retorted: "Impossible!"
His powerful words made everyone focus their eyes on him.
"Puchi~" Many people couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Ye Mingpei, who wanted Ye Yisheng to take off his mask, said: "..."
He suspected that Ye Mingze took the wrong medicine today!
Just based on what Ye Mingze said just now, even if Ye Yishen took off his mask and revealed a face similar to that of the Ye family. Others would also suspect that Ye Yishen had taken a pill that changed his appearance.
"You Ye family are really interesting, your own people refute your own people." The Qi family's ancestor mocked: "Do you want to discuss it and unify your words before arguing?"
Ye Chenyuan glanced coldly at Ye Mingze, signaling him to shut up.
Then Ye Chenyuan looked at Ye Mingpei and received an affirmative look from Ye Mingpei. Ye Chenyuan just stood up. He first glanced at everyone, then looked at Ye Yishen, and finally set his gaze on the four elders of Tianyi Sect and Taihua Sect.
"Since everyone is interested in my Ye family's bloodline, I would like to trouble the four elders to prove it for my Ye family's descendants."
After saying this, he bowed to the four elders.
The four elders got together, discussed it, and agreed to Ye Chenyuan's request.
Ye Chenyuan flew to Ye Yisheng's side, a rare kind smile on his face, and said to Ye Yisheng in a gentle voice: "Don't be afraid, it's just a blood test."
Ye Yisheng nodded.
The Qi family ancestor flew down to the stage and said, "Master Ye, you wouldn't mind having one more witness, right?"
In an instant, Ye Yisheng felt an overwhelming pressure coming towards him.
Ye Chenyuan was only at the Nascent Soul stage and could not withstand the pressure from a cultivator at the Spiritual Transformation stage. But he still took a step forward and blocked Ye Yishen behind him.
