Although Mu Tianbei was "inviting", his tone was full of arrogance and toughness, as if I am inviting you to join the Sky Spear Thunder Fire Fort because I think highly of you, and you should be moved to tears. His words were full of disdain for the Blue Wind Profound Palace. Yun Che could sense the rising anger of Qin Wushang beside him, and smiled slightly in response: "Thank you, Lord Mu, for thinking highly of me, but I believe that Lord Mu already knows that I, Yun Che, am a disciple of the Blue Wind Profound Palace, and I have not thought about leaving for the time being, so for Lord Mu's kind invitation, I can only refuse."
Mu Tianbei said calmly, "My nephew Yun, it's a good thing that you insist on doing this, but before you make a decision, you have to think it through. Cangfeng Xuanfu is just a place for ordinary people to cultivate Xuan. Among the major Xuan forces in the empire, it is not even in the middle. If it weren't for the reputation of the royal family, it wouldn't even be worthy of being at the bottom! In terms of essence, resources, and skills, they are a world apart from my Tianqiang Leihuo Fort! A pearl like you, in a mere Cangfeng Xuanfu, not to mention that you can't make much progress, in the end, you might just be assimilated into ordinary people."
"Mu Tianbei! Watch your words!" Qin Wushang said angrily.
"Palace Master Qin, did I say anything wrong?" Mu Tianbei finally looked at Qin Wushang and said with a disdainful smile: "Has Cangfeng Xuanfu cultivated a top disciple who can be remembered in all these years? As for nephew Yun, he should also be an outsider, right? Nephew Yun's performance is really amazing, but it's a pity that your Cangfeng Xuanfu is not qualified to keep him! Instead, it will only ruin and bury this genius who has the ability to shake the world in the future! It will be different when he comes to my Tianqiang Leihuo Fort. We will give him the best resources and the most superior skills inheritance. Three years later, I, Mu Tianbei, have enough confidence to let him win the top three in this ranking battle and become famous all over the world. Nephew Yun, in the final analysis, people live for themselves in this life. Don't delay your future and future for the so-called "righteousness". A small Cangfeng Xuanfu is not worthy of you staying there."
Qin Wushang was filled with rage, and he wanted to curse at them without caring about his manners, but at the same time, he was also worried that Yun Che would really be poached by them, because he could not help but admit that the strength of Tianqiang Leihuo Fort was far superior to that of Cangfeng Xuanfu. To be more blunt, the strength and conditions of the two were not on the same level at all. If Yun Che went to Tianqiang Leihuo Fort, the conditions for cultivating Xuan would be countless times better than those in Cangfeng Xuanfu.
However, Cang Yue had no such concerns at all. She smiled slightly and said, “Although Yun Che is a disciple of Cang Feng Xuan Fu, the original intention of establishing Cang Feng Xuan Fu was to provide a place for cultivation for countless young Xuan practitioners in the empire, and it does not interfere with the freedom of disciples to stay or leave. The words of the Lord of the Wood Castle have been clear enough. If Yun Che is moved by this and is willing to leave Cang Feng Xuan Fu and join your Tian Qiang Lei Huo Castle, we will never interfere.”
"Hahaha!" Mu Tianbei laughed loudly, "Great! As expected of the legendary Princess Cang Yue, not only is she as noble as the rumors say, but she's also very courageous! Nephew Yun, did you hear that clearly? But even if they don't agree, it doesn't matter. As long as you're willing to come to my Sky Spear Thunder Fire Fort, I won't take it seriously even if the entire Cang Feng Xuan Mansion comes to stop you."
“Hey, Fort Master Mu doesn’t need to consider this at all.” Yun Che smiled faintly, staring at him casually and said, “Blue Wind Profound Palace only allows disciples to stay until they are twenty years old. I will leave sooner or later. However, even if Blue Wind Profound Palace expels me now, I will definitely not join your Heavenly Spear Thunder Fire Fort. It’s not that your Heavenly Spear Thunder Fire Fort is not strong enough, but I feel that if there is a fort master who doesn’t even know what respect is and how to speak human language, the sect led by him will probably only be a third-rate place with a lot of smoke and miasma, no matter how strong it is. It’s better not to go.”
As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere suddenly changed.
Qin Wushang, who was originally full of anger, heard these words, and the first thing he felt was not relief or joy, but shock. He had never thought that Yun Che would dare to say such words in front of Mu Tianbei, who was feared by the world. On the other hand, Cang Yue was only slightly surprised, because she knew Yun Che well enough... This guy was never afraid of offending people! When he spoke, he said whatever he wanted, and when he didn't need to be patient, he would never swallow his anger.
Mu Tianbei thought that Yun Che might refuse, but he never thought that a junior like him would dare to say such rude and even humiliating words to him. He frowned and his face darkened: "Nephew Yun, what did you say just now? I don't think I heard it clearly..."
“I say, if there is a fortress lord who doesn’t even know what respect is and how to speak human language, no matter how powerful the sect he leads is, it is probably just a third-rate place full of filth and chaos. It is better not to go there.” Facing Mu Tianbei’s pressing gaze, Yun Che smiled and repeated slowly: “This time, did Fortress Lord Mu hear you clearly?”
As if a ball of anger exploded in his chest, Mu Tianbei was furious, and the muscles on his face trembled. Although Tianqiang Leihuo Fort was not as good as the four major sects, no one dared to provoke it, and it was too late to curry favor with it. But now, a junior was mocking him in front of him, the dignified fortress master. He looked ferocious and said in a low voice: "Good... very good..."
“Same here.” Yun Che was extremely calm. “You look down on my Blue Wind Profound Palace, and I look down on your Heavenly Spear Thunder Fire Fort. This way, we are even. If Fort Master Mu has nothing else to do, you can go back. Don’t ever mention asking me to join Heavenly Spear Thunder Fire Fort again. In my eyes, Blue Wind Profound Palace is a million times better than Heavenly Spear Thunder Fire Fort. Let alone a Fort Master like you, even if everyone in the sect kneels down to me, I will never agree.”
In just a few words, Yun Che unceremoniously returned Mu Tianbei's contempt and sarcasm towards Cangfeng Xuanfu several times. To be honest, Yun Che did not have much feelings for Cangfeng Xuanfu. Even if he was expelled, he would not feel anything. His fearless counterattack was not for Cangfeng Xuanfu, but for Cangyue.
If this wasn't the Tianjian Villa, where he couldn't just do whatever he wanted, Mu Tianbei would have shot Yun Che dead. He laughed in anger, stared at Yun Che and said, "What an arrogant young man! It really opened my eyes! I used to be sympathetic to talents and wanted Yan'er to show mercy to you tomorrow, but it seems that you don't want to live anymore!! I want to see if you still have the ability to stand in front of me and act arrogantly at this time tomorrow... Let's go!!"
Mu Tianbei snorted heavily and left with a wave of his sleeves. Mu Xiongyi and Mu Xiongyan followed him. When leaving the yard, Mu Xiongyan turned around and glanced at Yun Che with a sinister smile on his face.
Yun Che's sarcastic counterattack naturally made the angry Qin Wushen feel very happy. In addition to being grateful to Yun Che, he was more worried. He sighed and said, "Yun Che, you were too impulsive just now. You could have simply rejected him. There is no need to offend him. If this is the case, in tomorrow's competition, sigh..."
“Palace Master Qin, rest assured,” Yun Che said with a faint smile, “In this ranking match, I only have one real opponent. I will never lose before I meet this real opponent. As for Mu Xiongyan tomorrow, let alone posing a danger to me, he doesn’t even have the qualifications to make him use his true strength.”
————————————
One night passed, and a new day began. A new competition was about to begin. In the early morning, the area around the sword arena was already full of people, waiting for the start of the sixteen-ranked competition. At least so far, the course of this Cangfeng ranking competition was still quite normal. If there was anything unusual, it was Yun Che, the super dark horse.
As for the final result of the ranking battle, it was already determined in everyone's mind during the first day's test ceremony... The first place must belong to Ling Yun, and the second, third, and fourth places will still be fought over by Bingyun Immortal Palace, Xiao Sect, and Burning Heaven Sect. Other sects have no qualifications to compete.
The battle of sixteen was bound to be much more intense and tense than yesterday's battle of thirty-two.
The first match of the sixteen-person battle: Yun Che of the Blue Wind Imperial Family — versus — Mu Xiongyan of the Sky Spear Thunder Fire Fortress.
"Yan'er, destroy him!" Mu Tianbei warned in a low voice before Mu Xiongyan went on stage. After a night, his anger still did not subside. After he became the master of the fort, Yun Che was the first person who dared to say insulting words to him, which was enough to make him hate him to the core.
"Don't worry, father. I will make sure that he will never be able to stand up again in his life." Mu Xiongyan grinned and said easily.
On the sword-discussing stage, Yun Che and Mu Xiongyan stood facing each other. Mu Xiongyan narrowed his eyes slightly, with a slight sneer in his eyes, and his relaxed and carefree attitude, as if Yun Che in front of him was just a prey in his hands. Yun Che, on the other hand, was calm.
Qin Wushang told him in detail last night that the Tianqiang Leihuo Fort is divided into the Tianqiang Sect and the Leihuo Sect. The Leihuo Sect can transform the mysterious into thunder and fire and detonate it, causing extremely huge lethality. At the same time, the Leihuo Sect has also inherited the ability to make and control various advanced firearms. Every disciple of the Leihuo Sect has a dozen or even dozens of dangerous firearms hidden on their body, which is extremely dangerous and hard to guard against.
Yun Che didn’t really care about the transformation of Xuan into lightning and fire, but he couldn’t judge how powerful the firearm on Mu Xiongyan was. Countless experiences of escaping life and death told him that uncertain things are often the source of danger. When facing Mu Xiongyan, the safest way to fight is to completely eliminate the possible danger in the shortest time possible.
Therefore, for him, this was destined to be a game that would be decided in the blink of an eye.
“The game begins!!”
As Ling Wugou's voice fell, Mu Xiongyan raised his hands, spread his ten fingers, and ten purple-red lightning balls condensed on his fingertips in an instant, releasing a terrifying crackling sound. He looked at Yun Che and said with a ferocious smile: "Yun Che, prepare to howl under my thunder and fire! I will make you remember the price of insulting my Heavenly Spear Thunder Fire Fort for the rest of your life!!"
Yun Che did not answer. He gripped the heavy sword tightly, and with a flash of his figure, he rushed towards Mu Xiongyan like a gust of wind.
Mu Xiongyan waved his hands, and ten lightning and fire beads condensed by profound energy flew towards Yun Che along different trajectories. Yun Che did not dodge, but went straight to meet them. This scene made Mu Xiongyan sneer:
"Looking for death... Explode!!"
Boom boom boom…
Ten lightning and fire beads exploded at the same time, and the raging light of lightning and fire instantly submerged Yun Che's figure. Before Mu Xiongyan could even laugh out loud, he suddenly discovered that the moment the lightning and fire beads exploded, Yun Che's figure disappeared there.
Phantom! ?
The next moment, he suddenly noticed a shadow flashing in the corner of his eye. Yun Che had actually bullied him and was less than two steps away from him. If he were someone else, even if he could react quickly to resist, he would definitely be in a panic. However, Mu Xiongyan was not panicked, but smiled sinisterly. He did not turn sideways, but with a fierce force of profound strength, three scarlet lightning arrows suddenly shot out from his shoulders and flew straight to Yun Che's face.
"ah--"
There were cries of surprise from all around the sword arena, and Cang Yue even screamed nervously. At such a close distance, and with a completely unexpected oncoming attack, even a god might not be able to dodge these three lightning bolts.
Whoosh!!
In a flash, three lightning arrows shot in front of Yun Che's eyes and pierced through his face...
Still a phantom!!
Mu Xiongyan's eyes suddenly widened. Before he could recover from his shock, a scorching wave of air had already crashed down from the sky...
"Phoenix Wing Sky Dome!!!"
Boom! !
Yun Che fell from the sky like a flaming eagle. A scorching and violent sword fiercely slammed into his back. A huge ball of fire exploded with a loud bang...
At this point in the ranking battle, Yun Che used the Star God Shattered Shadow for the first time. The second level of the chain triple shadow was extremely unpredictable. Similarly, it was also the first time he used the Phoenix Flame Skill... Everything was done in order to quickly end the battle and directly avoid all possible unstable factors.
In the sky-high flames, Mu Xiongyan's protective profound energy shattered like thin ice. He spat out a large mouthful of blood and flew out fiercely, then hit the profound energy barrier and bounced back to the ground. The flames on his body did not go out, but burned violently, burning his clothes and flesh, and also burning the dozens of firearms hidden on his body...
Bang, bang, bang, boom, boom…
When the firearms met fire, they all exploded wildly on Mu Xiongyan's body, blasting his skin and flesh to pieces, blood and flesh blurred, and screaming like a ghost. Yun Che put away the heavy sword, looked at him with pity, and whispered in his heart: These firearms used against me, you should use them for yourself!
