Supreme Sword God

Chapter 596: Chapter 595: A Great War General Approaches, Schemes Unfold

Hua Ao Bone heard that this head belongs to Li Jushan from the Sect Alliance, and his reaction was almost like Daoist Hua Mu’s, just short of his jaw dropping to the ground.

Daoist Hua Mu glanced at Hua Ao Bone and said, ”Ao Bone, deliver the head to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, set off immediately, and don’t return to Jiulong City. I will inform your parents!”

At this moment, Daoist Hua Mu vaguely guessed Ye Chen’s purpose of coming alone to Jiulong City!

The three-hundredth anniversary of the founding of Cangxing Martial Arts Academy is about to begin. Ye Chen killed Li Jushan but didn’t return immediately. Instead, he rushed to Jiulong City, definitely intending to make another strike here and add some excitement to the academy’s celebration.

So.

Next, a storm is sure to sweep through Jiulong City.

Sending Hua Ao Bone away is a good move!

Since the ancestor has spoken, and it’s a matter entrusted by his brother-in-law, Hua Ao Bone didn’t hesitate, immediately patting his chest and assuring, ”Brother-in-law, rest assured, I will surely arrive on time!”

After speaking, Hua Ao Bone placed Li Jushan’s head into the Storage Ring and hurriedly set off for Cangxing Martial Arts Academy.

After Hua Ao Bone left.

Daoist Hua Mu looked at Ye Chen with a slightly strange expression and asked, ”How did you kill Li Jushan?”

Ye Chen casually replied, ”Along the way... smoothly!”

”Did you smoothly kill others as well?”

Ye Chen laughed, ”Along the way, I killed a Prince Zhenbei of the Great Qin Dynasty and Guo Qiang from the Ten Thousand Poison Sect.”

Daoist Hua Mu’s temples throbbed vigorously, ”So you came to Jiulong City along the way, planning to smoothly kill whom?”

”Si Mingguang, the fake Zhou Potian, both to be cut down together!”

Daoist Hua Mu shook his head, ”Si Mingguang is very strong. He should be from the Moon Capital of the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom. I suspect that the fake Zhou Potian, that evil dragon, was his handiwork.

However, Si Mingguang is currently not in Jiulong City. If I’m not mistaken, he will appear at your Cangxing Martial Arts Academy on the day of the academy’s celebration.

Now, within the Great Zhou Martial Arts Academy, only your Cangxing Martial Arts Academy has Heaven-Reaching Realm experts, and there are two of them: Ouyang Shang and Liu Mubai.

So, Cangxing Martial Arts Academy is a thorn in Si Mingguang’s eye and flesh!”

Ye Chen, hearing this, said, ”Then I will kill that evil dragon and then rush back to Cangxing Martial Arts Academy to kill Si Mingguang. I don’t care if he is from the Moon Capital of the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom; even if it’s the Moon God, if she offends me, I’ll stab her too!”

”When did the Moon God offend you?”

Ye Chen said, ”If it weren’t for the Moon God appearing last time, Li Jushan would have died earlier. Although I left by then, I knew the general situation.”

”The Moon God seems to have an unusual relationship with your teacher Yang Tianji. When the Moon God appeared last time, there might have been some reason.”

Ye Chen said, ”Regardless of her reason, she came out to cause trouble last time, made a mess, and didn’t clean it up. If I don’t stab her, I’ll write my name backwards!”

Daoist Hua Mu didn’t continue the topic. The young hot-tempered couldn’t be persuaded.

”How do you plan to kill the fake Zhou Potian?”

Ye Chen asked, ”Daoist Hua Mu, do you have any good suggestions?”

Daoist Hua Mu said, ”Last time your teacher entered Jiulong City, he reversed the Nine Dragon Array, which scared him a lot. Now he has made some modifications to the Nine Dragon Array, making it impossible to reverse it again.

However, he wouldn’t dare to touch the array eye of the Mountain God Temple!

But I am thus trapped here. If I leave, he will come!

If you want to attack Jiulong City directly, considering he is essentially of an evil dragon form, and relying on the power of the Nine Dragon Array, his strength will be terrifyingly strong.

To kill him, you must lure him out.”

Ye Chen’s eyes flashed, ”Daoist Hua Mu, how about you return to the Hua Family in Jiulong City? Once you return, he will naturally come!”

Daoist Hua Mu said, ”For me to return, there has to be a reason.”

Ye Chen said, ”For example, the Hua Family facing a crisis!”

Daoist Hua Mu said, ”I could perhaps ask Xu Changqing from the Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy to help.

The Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy is located within Jiulong City. The royal family and Sect Alliance suppress the academy. Xu Changqing, that old fellow, is quite tough and refuses to yield.

Let Xu Changqing pretend to submit to the royal family and besiege my Hua Family. It makes perfect sense for me to return to support.

But... once I go back, I may not be able to come out in time.

If the evil dragon comes here, can you hold him off alone?”

Ye Chen said, ”He hasn’t been in the Heaven-Reaching Realm for long, has he?”

Previously, when Yang Tianji forcibly broke into the Imperial Palace, Ye Chen remembered that the iron evil dragon hadn’t yet reached the Heaven-Reaching Realm.

”It is true that he entered the Heaven-Reaching Realm not too long ago, and now he is only at the Second Layer of the Heaven-Reaching Realm. But his combat power is definitely stronger than Li Jushan’s Fifth Layer because he has opened four Grotto Heavens.

Four Grotto Heavens have a qualitative difference from three.

Moreover, being of an evil dragon form, even without truly transforming into a dragon, his strength holds enormous natural advantages!”

Ye Chen said, ”I can kill!”

”How will you kill?”

”Take up the sword and cut him down!”

Daoist Hua Mu found that he couldn’t communicate with Ye Chen anymore, seeing the young man swelling egotistically.

Ye Chen continued, ”Daoist Hua Mu, you should return to Jiulong City. Even if this evil dragon is stronger than Li Jushan, it is limitedly so, while I killing Li Jushan was just casually and smoothly done. But to kill this evil dragon, I’ve prepared for a long time!”

Ye Chen’s tone made Daoist Hua Mu feel that he wasn’t bluffing.

”Do you truly have confidence?”

Ye Chen said, ”If I wasn’t confident, I wouldn’t be here. I came planning to cut down Si Mingguang together; since Si Mingguang isn’t here, the evil dragon is even less of a problem!”

Daoist Hua Mu looked solemn, ”Fine, then let’s proceed according to the plan. But remember, you absolutely must not act impulsively. If you find it overwhelming, do not force a confrontation; stall for time until I arrive!”

Ye Chen smiled, ”Alright!”

Then, Daoist Hua Mu temporarily left the Mountain God Temple side to contact Xu Changqing, the president of the Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy, to stage a grand performance!

Ye Chen entered the Mountain God Temple, sitting down in meditation.

”Come in!”

Luo Qingyi’s voice rang out.

With a thought, Ye Chen entered the Sword Tomb.

”Elder Qingyi, is there anything else you need to instruct?” Ye Chen proactively asked.

The little Phoenix, exhausted from the recent days, weakly lay on Luo Qingyi’s shoulder.

Luo Qingyi said: ”Your Cyan Heaven Dragon Transformation Technique can restrain the Vicious Dragon. Moreover, that reverse scale can’t protect you anymore. You can use it when dealing with the Vicious Dragon!”

”How do I use it?” Ye Chen was intrigued.

”Use the power of the Cyan Heaven Dragon Transformation Technique to refine the reverse scale and unleash pure True Dragon Qi, which can strongly impact the Vicious Dragon’s bloodline!

This was instructed by that elder from the Dragon Race.

The reason I didn’t tell you earlier was that I was afraid you’d rashly go after the Vicious Dragon if you had a trump card. Now, you are already capable of battling the Vicious Dragon and are about to face it, so I’m telling you now.”

Ye Chen: ”...”

Am I such an impulsive person?

Miss Qing seems to misunderstand me quite deeply!

We’ll have to get to know each other better in the future!

With nothing else to do, Ye Chen immediately exited the Sword Tomb.

Inside the Sword Tomb.

Master Legs suddenly ran to Luo Qingyi’s side, speaking in a somewhat peculiar tone: ”Couldn’t you just transmit your words to him directly? You just wanted to see him, didn’t you.”

Luo Qingyi stared at Master Legs with murderous intent.

Master Legs laughed awkwardly.

Several streams of Sword Qi instantly flew out, severing Master Legs’ legs.

The limp Little Phoenix took the chance to spit out a puff of fire and said: ”Sister Qingyi, he’s always laughing weirdly, how hateful!”

Luo Qingyi patted Ye Chen’s little bird and said: ”Next time you breathe fire, use a bit more strength!”

Outside.

Ye Chen channeled his power and took out the reverse scale that had fused with his abdomen.

This Dragon Race reverse scale could fend off attacks below the Heaven-Reaching Realm and had been quite useful.

Now, it indeed had no more use.

Ye Chen immediately activated the Cyan Heaven Dragon Transformation Technique, channeling power to refine the reverse scale.

The reverse scale gradually transformed into a cluster of pure aura, representing the truest form of True Dragon Qi.

After Ye Chen had completely refined the reverse scale, more than half a day had passed. As night fell, Daoist Hua Mu, who had conspired with Xu Changqing, finally returned.

”How did it go?” Ye Chen asked.

”Xu Changqing will pledge allegiance to the Vicious Dragon tonight and attack the Hua Family. Early tomorrow morning, I’ll rush back to aid!” Daoist Hua Mu still seemed a bit uneasy and asked, ”Are you really okay dealing with that Vicious Dragon?”

Ye Chen said: ”It’s just a small matter!”

......

Imperial Palace.

In the eerie palace, two eyes emitted a bloodthirsty glow.

A middle-aged man rushed into the palace and said: ”Reporting to Emperor Zhou, Xu Changqing from the Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy seeks allegiance, claiming he is willing to take action to annihilate the Hua Family.”

The Vicious Dragon sneered and said: ”Xu Changqing is notoriously stubborn. He wouldn’t pledge allegiance to me, even in death.”

”Emperor Zhou, you mean...?”

”It’s all an act. I don’t know their purpose, but it doesn’t matter. Let Xu Changqing deal with the Hua Family. If they can bring Hua Mu Elder back to Jiulong City, that’s fine too!”

”Emperor Zhou, might they be intending to lure you to the Mountain God Temple?”

The Vicious Dragon snorted coldly and said: ”Just as well, I lack a good reason to destroy the Hua Family and the Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy. Let them act. I’ll use it as an excuse of threatening Jiulong City’s security to wipe them out!

If Hua Mu Elder dares to return, I’ll personally go to the Mountain God Temple. Even if they have a scheme, so what?

Yang Tianji is trapped in the Divine Moon Ancient Kingdom.

Ouyang Shang and Liu Mubai are still at Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, and Lord Si is near the Cangxing Martial Arts Academy!

At most, it’s just Hua Mu Elder and a few desperate old fellows coming to risk their lives. If Hua Mu Elder returns to Jiulong City, naturally someone powerful will restrain him.”

”Emperor Zhou, you mean...? There are hidden Heaven-Reaching Realm experts in Jiulong City?”

The Vicious Dragon said flatly: ”You just need to do your job well.”

”Yes, Emperor Zhou, I shall now go to notify Xu Changqing, making him immediately lead the Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy to besiege the Hua Family!”

......

That night.

In Jiulong City, the area where the Hua Family resided was besieged by the Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy!

The great battle erupted!

The tremors kept everyone in Jiulong City awake the entire night.

Early the next morning, people from the Hua Family broke through the siege, escaped Jiulong City, and rushed to the Mountain God Temple to seek aid from Daoist Hua Mu.

Daoist Hua Mu immediately rushed back!

The moment Daoist Hua Mu entered Jiulong City.

In the palace’s main hall, space shattered, and a black flood dragon surged into the void, heading for the Mountain God Temple.

Meanwhile, at the Mountain God Temple.

After Daoist Hua Mu’s departure.

Ye Chen was already sitting on the temple’s staircase, his expression calm, with one hand holding a sword and the other holding a cloth as he wiped the blade.

The Celestial Mark Sword’s light grew ever more dazzling!

Guo Qiang of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect was dead, Li Jushan of the Haoyang Sect was also dead. If this Vicious Dragon is slain, the Great Zhou Dynasty’s situation can immediately stabilize!

With the prestige of all the Great Zhou’s major martial academies, the remaining chaos can certainly be pacified.

As for Si Mingguang, who emerged as a formidable individual, no matter how capable he is and whatever identity he might hold, he cannot stir up much trouble!

A moment later.

A cold smile appeared at the corner of Ye Chen’s mouth.

He casually placed the cloth with which he was wiping the Celestial Mark Sword to one side, then stood up, raised his sword, walked down the steps, and looking at the empty space ahead, said indifferently: ”Come, meet your death!”
