"Yes, he's my friend, irreplaceable. You overestimate yourself and underestimate others." Mu Hanyan didn't want to explain too much to Mu Chengxuan. Ye Lanxun's identity was mysterious, but Mu Hanyan understood that it was anything but simple. Servant? She really wanted to laugh at Mu Chengxuan. The more arrogant Mu Chengxuan was now, the more embarrassed he would be later.
"Why bother talking to such a person?" Ye Lanxuan smiled calmly and said calmly.
Looking at Ye Lanxun's detached and elegant expression, Mu Hanyan felt secretly ashamed. Compared to him, not only was her strength far behind, but her character and cultivation had also improved a lot.
Just as I was feeling ashamed, I heard Ye Lanxun add, "Just beat him and teach him a lesson."
Uh… okay, Miss Mu admitted, she had overestimated this guy. Indeed, action-oriented people are much more effective than nonsense-oriented people. Why did she start talking so much nonsense? Perhaps it was because the other party was so annoying, so she just wasted a few words. Mu Hanyan reflected deeply on how she had become such an unpleasant nonsense-oriented person! From now on, she must strictly be a person of action!
"Teach me a lesson, hahahaha, just with your broken sword?" Mu Chengxuan seemed to have heard the funniest joke in the world, and he laughed so hard that tears were about to come out.
He had seen what Hua Yue and the others had done just now, and knew that they were embarrassed to take out their swords because they felt that the grade of their swords was too low. The sword that Ye Lanxuan took out was plain and simple in both hilt and scabbard, and did not even give off a hint of coldness and sharpness. It seemed that it was even inferior to the swords of Hua Yue and the others.
He wanted to teach Mu Chengxuan a lesson with just such a broken sword. This was nothing but a joke.
Hua Yue and the others smiled slightly and looked at Mu Chengxuan's arrogant face, feeling like they were looking at an idiot.
While others didn't know Ye Lanxuan's true strength, they had witnessed it firsthand more than once. How could the sword of a dignified Sword Saint be anything but ordinary? It was simply because this fellow hadn't seen the world and couldn't discern the true from the false. "Broken sword," he said, with a chuckle.
"Don't underestimate this broken sword of mine. It's very powerful." Ye Lanxuan pretended to be a rich country tycoon and said mysteriously.
Seeing this guy's pretentious expression, Mu Hanyan almost burst out laughing. It was really hard for him, a man who had always seemed like a banished immortal, trying hard to pretend to be a rich country boy. It must be hard work.
"Alright, alright, I want to see how powerful this broken sword of yours is!" Mu Chengxuan was too lazy to talk nonsense with them, perhaps because he felt that talking nonsense with such people would be beneath his dignity. Seeing Mu Hanyan took the long sword, he shouted and slashed out with the Qingyun Sword.
With the cultivation level of a fifth-level swordsman, coupled with the power of the semi-divine Qingyun Sword, a single strike of the sword can cause wind, clouds and thunder.
A green sword beam flashed across the sky like lightning, eclipsing even the scorching sun.
The sound of swords hummed, and the earth trembled.
"What a strong sword power!" Hua Yue and the others were forced to take several steps back by the powerful sword power, and were deeply shocked.
They had seen the strength of a fifth-level swordsman in Zhao Yuanji. However, Mu Chengxuan before them, whether in the unstoppable and domineering spirit in his sword or the concentration of his energy, far surpassed Zhao Yuanji.
But the most terrifying thing was the Qingyun Sword in his hand. The sword sounded long, the sky and the earth changed color, and the land of heaven and earth gathered above Mu Chengxuan's head, as if it had substance, and poured into his body like a spring, endlessly.
Mu Chengxuan's energy poured out without hesitation towards the Qingyun Sword. The sword shone with a green light, and the power contained in it surpassed Mu Chengxuan himself.
If it was any other long sword, it would have been unable to withstand the constantly accumulating and superimposed energy and would have shattered. However, this is the Qingyun Sword, one of the seven divine swords of the Mu family. Its quality is far superior to that of the Zhenshui Sword. It can even withstand the vast energy of a sword saint, so how could it not withstand the energy of a sword master?
Finally, the green sword light broke out of the sword, completely gathered into a solid entity, and slashed towards Mu Hanyan wildly.
The sword energy turns into light!
Different from the phantom transformation in the swordsman realm, this is a true sword condensed with Qi, and the sword Qi turns into light. Its power is many times stronger than that of the phantom transformation. This is also a sword skill that can only be mastered by the seventh-level swordsman.
Hua Yue and the others were horrified. The higher the power, the harder it was to advance. They were only at the ninth level of Swordsmanship, and they already felt the difficulty of advancement. Mu Chengxuan, with the strength of a fifth-level Sword Master, could display the sword skills of a seventh-level Sword Master. Who could believe it if they hadn't seen it with their own eyes?
Hua Yue and the others knew very well that Mu Chengxuan's ability to perform such a sword move was certainly related to his talent, but it was also closely related to the Mu family's secret sword skills and the Qingyun Sword in his hand.
No wonder the major aristocratic families have been able to pass down to this day and stand for thousands of years. The depth of their foundation is simply beyond the imagination of ordinary civilian practitioners or small families.
Looking at Mu Hanyan who was surrounded by sword light, everyone showed worry.
Although Mu Hanyan had the Cang Xuan Yunsha to protect her, the ability to change shape and shadow, and Ye Lanxuan's protective sword in her hand, she had just been promoted to a swordsman, and the gap in strength between her and Mu Chengxuan was still too big.
This battle is likely to be disastrous.
Behind them, Aunt Xiu and Han Yun'er, mother and daughter, were even more horrified. They knew how famous and powerful the Mu family was, but they weren't swordsmen after all. Given their status, they rarely had the chance to witness a true master fight, let alone a scene like this.
Seeing the shocking sword light, the two were so scared that they trembled all over, and their eyes looking at Mu Hanyan were full of worry and emotion.
Aunt Xiu was in tears. If she hadn't been suffocated by the power of the sword, she would have wanted to rush forward, stand in front of Mu Hanyan, and stop the competition with her death.
Not only them, but even Mu Yunshui's mouth dropped open in surprise. He used to be wary of Mu Chengxuan, and even when he was scolded, he didn't dare to retort. This was mainly because of the Supreme Elder. Otherwise, even if Mu Chengxuan was a fifth-level swordsman, he wouldn't be able to bully him so much.
It was not until now that he realized how powerful Mu Chengxuan was. Even without the support of the Supreme Elder, he, Mu Yunshui, could not afford to provoke him.
"Be careful!" Mu Yunshui couldn't help but exclaim.
After shouting these two words, he felt a little strange. It didn't make sense. Didn't he wish that Mu Hanyan would be in trouble? Why was he worried about her instead?
Yes, that’s right. It must be because Mu Chengxuan is too arrogant and unpopular. I couldn’t bear to see Mu Hanyan being bullied by him as soon as she returned to the clan family, so she felt guilty and sided with him... Ugh, what does it mean to feel guilty? Who would say that about themselves?
Thinking of this, Mu Yunshui spat heavily.
