"Chi Hao, come on, let me see if you have made any progress over the years!"
Cang Liunan is a fourth-level spiritual saint. If nothing unexpected happens, when he faces Chi Hao, a second-level spiritual saint, the result will be one death and one serious injury. Of course, it will be obvious who will die and who will be seriously injured at a glance, unless Chi Hao has some extraordinary means to make up for the gap between him and Cang Liunan.
However, just as Chi Hao was preparing to fight Cang Liunan to the death, something strange happened again.
Chi Hao's face changed, and then he looked down at the ring on his right hand.
A wooden box flew out of his ring leisurely, then hovered in the air, emitting a terrifying sword intent.
Chi Hao was shocked and had no idea what was going on.
That wooden box was exactly what Chi Haoling, the Great Elder, had taken out from the Chi clan's ancestral hall.
"What happened?"
Cang Liunan frowned slightly, subconsciously feeling that something bad was going to happen.
The wooden box suddenly vibrated.
Faced with this sudden change, Cang Liunan and Chi Hao no longer had the desire to take action.
Both of them stared at the wooden box intently. It was obvious that the wooden box, or to be more precise, the sword inside the box, had undergone a change.
"boom!"
A silver sword emerged from the wooden box, and terrifying sword intent emanated from its sword body like an overwhelming force.
The scene happening here also caught the attention of Chi Bu Si and Xue Han Zi who were fighting in the distance. They stopped their attacks and looked towards the silver sword.
As for Helan Zhan and the others, they were left out by both sides, obviously because of the boy's matter.
Helan Zhan smiled bitterly. This was arguably the most difficult thing for him to do.
There is a demon in the Chi clan. According to the rules, the Holy Sect has the responsibility and obligation to deal with the demon. After all, they are the largest sect in the Central Region and naturally have to shoulder their responsibilities.
But this person happened to be the adopted son of Chi Hao, the patriarch of the Chi clan, and this guy insisted on keeping him.
Before coming here, Helan Zhan received instructions from the clan leader to try not to push too hard. He naturally understood what this meant, and he also had a good relationship with the Chi clan.
It's not right to help, nor is it right not to help, so I might as well just stand aside and watch the show. No matter what, I have fulfilled my responsibilities and done my best to show my favor.
Helan Zhan stood in the distance, staring at the silver sword handle floating in space, his heart trembling slightly. He looked at the young man beside him and said meaningfully, "Fortunately, we didn't take action, otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable."
"What does this mean, Uncle Master?"
The young man was a little confused.
"That sword has appeared. It's very likely that Qing Sheng will also appear."
"Ah? Qingsheng... didn't he die in the thunder tribulation a long time ago?" the young man said in shock.
"It's hard to say whether Qing Sheng is dead or not, but based on his cultivation level, even if he is gone, he has enough means to protect his child's growth, such as that sword. Now it seems that the child is really Qing Sheng's child." Helan Zhan said with a sigh.
"Why do you say that, uncle?" the young man asked.
Helan Zhan shook his head and said, "Just watch quietly."
The silver sword broke out of the box, floating in the air and bursting out with terrifying sword intent.
Even Cang Liunan, a fourth-level spiritual saint, felt a little nervous when facing this sword intent.
"What's going on? Could it be...Brother Gu!"
Chi Hao's face was solemn, and then there was some surprise in his eyes.
"But Brother Gu, you clearly already...what's going on?"
After thinking about it carefully, the excitement in Chi Hao's eyes disappeared again.
The sword intent on the silver sword continued to erupt, and the people present could only keep retreating or mobilize their spiritual energy to resist this power.
"What a powerful sword intent! If I could master this kind of sword intent, who on this continent would be my opponent?"
Cang Liunan's heart gradually became hot, and he even had the idea of taking the silver sword.
No one noticed that the sword intent continuously released by the silver sword did not dissipate, but continued to gather on the sword body, and the light around the sword body became more and more dazzling.
This terrifying sword intent burst out lasted for a whole incense stick of time. During this time, Xue Hanzi and Cang Liunan tried to leave several times, but were stared at closely by Chi Hao and Chi Bushi. Because of the sword, whose purpose was unknown, they did not leave.
After one stick of incense, the sword intent gradually weakened.
Chi Hao, Cang Liunan and the others present breathed a sigh of relief.
If an accident really happens, there may be unpredictable consequences.
Everyone stared at the ball of light in the air. At this time, the silver sword had turned into a ball of dazzling light, and no one could tell what was happening inside.
The light gradually disappeared, and the things inside gradually appeared before everyone's eyes.
But everyone's expressions became more and more shocked.
Because next to the silver sword, a figure appeared, floating in the air, and that figure was a phantom!
“This…this is…”
The first one to come back to his senses from the shock was Chi Hao. He stared at the illusory shadow next to the silver sword, his eyes gradually becoming moist.
"Brother Gu, is that you?!"
The shadow looked very ordinary, the kind that you wouldn't be able to find in a crowd. However, apart from the vicissitudes of life in that person's eyes, he gave people a feeling of looking down on the world, as if everything was under his feet.
A smile appeared on the shadow's face, "Brother Chi, it's me, thank you for your hard work."
Hearing the phantom's personal admission, Chi Hao's body suddenly softened.
Chi Hao looked at the shadow and immediately said, "Brother Gu, Xiao Yuan..."
"I know everything. I know everything here. Thank you, Brother Chi, for everything you've done. You've bought me time to get out. Leave the rest to me."
The shadow slowly reached out and took the silver sword in his own hand, muttering, "It's been a long time since you fought alongside me, right?"
The silver sword seemed to have intelligence, and the sword body kept clanging, as if it had met an old friend it hadn't seen for decades.
"Haha, old friend, today we can fight side by side again!"
The shadow laughed out loud, turned around suddenly, and slashed down with the sword. With this sword, the sky and the earth became dark, and the space was directly torn apart. In an instant, it arrived in front of Xue Hanzi and Cang Liunan.
Cang Liunan and Xue Hanzi's faces almost turned green, and Xue Hanzi was even cursing in his heart. He was the one who took on the responsibility of being the second largest sect in the Central Region, and now he encountered a legendary figure?
Cang Liunan's face turned pale, and he slapped out a palm, throwing the person behind him directly towards the oncoming sword energy.
Without time to think, Xue Hanzi and Cang Liunan directly cut a passage, and then without caring about the lives of others, they went straight in, looking very embarrassed.
The people who were thrown forward and those who had not yet had time to enter did not even have time to scream before they were turned into ashes under the sword energy.
Cang Liunan's face was extremely pale. He and Xue Hanzi burned their own vitality and used the space that was about to merge to barely block the sword energy.
