Supreme Sword God

Chapter 17: Chapter 17: Show Off and Run, Dao Sword Spirit!

Ye Chen reacted quickly and immediately caught Hua Qianxue!

Fortunately, he had tied that huge bundle of weapons to his back. Otherwise, with one hand holding the spoils of war and the other wielding his own sword, he wouldn’t have had a free hand!

”Miss Hua, what’s wrong with you?”

Ye Chen shouted nervously.

In his mind, Hua Qianxue was very strong. She could kill three peak Elemental Wheel Realm experts in one move. For a strong person like her, ordinary injuries couldn’t stop them, so Hua Qianxue’s injuries must be particularly severe!

”Just overexertion.”

Luo Qingyi’s voice sounded.

Ye Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

”Now, you should carefully consider your situation.” Luo Qingyi continued, ”Those old folks who wanted your head are all nearby.”

Ye Chen shivered all over.

Earlier, it was Hua Qianxue who intimidated those people.

But now, Hua Qianxue had fainted!

What to do?!

Ye Chen gritted his teeth, hoisted Hua Qianxue up with one hand, and swung her over his shoulder, channeling all his strength into his legs, dashing away into the distance!

Those old folks were mostly in the Sea of Qi Realm, and there could even be a Tier Three Spirit Master. Before they made a move, the best course of action was to run!

Ye Chen was running frantically.

Soon, in the darkness, a figure quickly chased after him.

”Chase!”

”Ye Chen’s talent is very strong. We can’t let him live, or he’ll definitely seek revenge on us in the future!”

”That little girl is also a threat. While she’s down, we must take her life!”

”Killing Ye Chen will allow us to present his head to the others in our clan. We absolutely cannot let him escape.”

Voices rang out one after another, followed by streaks of wind-breaking sounds coalescing. Everyone nearby mobilized!

Ye Chen hadn’t escaped far when he heard a whooshing sound from behind him, a formidable sharpness seemingly about to tear open his back!

Ye Chen let out a low roar, survival instinct driving his power to surge another notch, his body propelling forward.

”Boom!”

A huge explosion sounded.

Behind him, fierce waves of air swept out, and Ye Chen’s body couldn’t find its footing, tumbling forward on the ground, rolling over several times.

”Hmph, still trying to escape? Without that brat’s help, you’re just an ant I could crush with a single finger in my eyes!”

An old man floated in the air, looking down disdainfully and angrily at Ye Chen below.

The scene of his grandson being pierced through the throat by Ye Chen’s sword was still fresh in his memory!

”Use Hua Qianxue’s Dao Sword, quickly!”

Luo Qingyi’s urging voice rang in Ye Chen’s mind.

Ye Chen immediately went to grab the sword in Hua Qianxue’s hand.

Even in a coma, Hua Qianxue held the sword in a death grip, and Ye Chen couldn’t pull it free despite several tugs. In desperation, he bit down hard on the back of Hua Qianxue’s hand.

Hua Qianxue, seemingly feeling the pain even in her unconscious state, released the grip on her sword.

Ye Chen quickly grasped the hilt of the sword!

”Buzz!”

Instantly, a powerful resistance erupted from the sword, as if trying to break free from Ye Chen’s grip!

”A mere inferior Dao Sword Spirit dares to resist? Behave yourself!”

Ye Chen heard Luo Qingyi snort coldly, and immediately, Hua Qianxue’s sword became extremely docile, its previous proud sword hum turning into one of placation...

Before Ye Chen could ask what to do, he noticed that the sword essence within him began actively flooding into the Dao Sword in his hand.

The intricate and profound patterns on the surface of the Dao Sword seemed to come to life.

”Strike!”

Luo Qingyi’s voice called out urgently in Ye Chen’s mind!

Ye Chen didn’t think too much, stabbing the sword straight at the old man in mid-air.

The old man in the air smirked disdainfully, ”An ant like you dares to strike at me...”

Before the old man could finish speaking, the sword Ye Chen thrust out exploded with a massive Sword Qi. The sword’s radiance shone brilliantly, tearing through the night and cleaving the old man’s body in two!

Slaying an old man of the Sea of Qi Realm with a single sword strike, Ye Chen didn’t feel any triumph; instead, he felt as if his body had been completely hollowed out.

However, this emptiness was utterly different from the feeling when using the Burning Sword Technique.

The emptiness from using the Burning Sword Technique felt as if he would never recover, while this... was merely a severe depletion of strength.

Aside from his physical sensations, Ye Chen noticed that the runes on Hua Qianxue’s Dao Sword seemed to have dimmed significantly...

At this moment.

The remaining old folks all rushed over, encircling Ye Chen.

These old folks exchanged glances, their eyes glinting.

What was happening?

Ye Chen, capable of killing a Sea of Qi Realm expert?

”Be wary of the sword in his hand; it should be a Dao Sword, and this brat is consuming the Sword Spirit’s essence,” someone said.

”Think you’re so smart, think you’re so talkative? Then I’ll kill you!”

Ye Chen roared and slashed again.

His already exhausted body was now utterly drained. After the strike, the Sword Qi locked onto the aura of the one who had spoken, shattering him into pieces!

Ye Chen leaned on the sword, panting heavily.

Around him, there were still four old folks.

These four hesitated momentarily.

The two that Ye Chen had just slain were considered mid-to-high levels of strength among them...

Ye Chen glanced at Hua Qianxue lying unconscious at his feet.

Though this girl was indeed quite arrogant, and Ye Chen sometimes wanted to pin her down and give her a good beating, as a man, how could he take advantage of others’ weakness, how could he repay kindness with malice?!

Hua Qianxue had given him pills to heal, reattached his third uncle Ye Zhenming’s severed arm, protected him for three days, and generously shared her Gale Sword Intent to help him understand the power of the wind.

Now, Hua Qianxue was in trouble.

As a man, Ye Chen had to stand up!

Thinking of this, Ye Chen raised his head, looking at the remaining four, a wild look on his face, and shouted, ”Come on, if you’re not afraid of death, come and try me. I can still strike once more; let’s see who among you has the worst luck!”

What a bunch of bastards.

No different from that old dog Gu Yue, polluting the air by existing in this world.

Didn’t you think I was weak? Didn’t you think I was easy to bully? Go on then, try me. Maybe I can strike down two more!”

Ye Chen’s words further hesitated the four old folks.

To strike first?

Strike together?

Nobody dared make a sound!

If Ye Chen really went mad and struck again... nobody wanted to be the unlucky one!

The scene fell into a standoff.

Inside Ye Chen, the continuous surge of heat began flowing out faster than before!

He was taking the opportunity to recover!

However, he controlled his Qi Blood, making his face appear increasingly pale, giving the impression of growing weaker.

A moment later.

Finally, someone couldn’t hold back.

”This brat is bluffing us. He can no longer strike a blow.”

The speaker was a garishly dressed woman.

Ye Chen looked at the woman, grinned, and said, ”Very well, you’re the one!”
