Supreme Sword God

Chapter 273: Chapter 272: Little Girl, Long Time No See

Chun Hua and Qiu Yue, the four women first used their beguiling techniques to silently and subtly lay an illusion, aiming to confuse Ye Chen’s mind.

Then, each holding daggers coated with lethal poison, they stabbed towards Ye Chen’s body.

The cultivation they had been concealing erupted without any reservation.

All four were in the Mortal Transformation Realm.

Although they were only at the First Layer of Transcendence, clearly elevated forcibly through special means, their power appeared hollow.

Yet in such a situation, even a man with Unity Realm cultivation could easily fall victim.

However, Ye Chen remained clear-minded from start to finish.

From the moment he stepped out of the Emperor Star Martial Arts Academy today, he had been prepared.

The illusions just now were as good as non-existent to him; he watched it all like an observer, taking everything in.

The daggers in the hands of Chun Hua, Qiu Yue, and the other two were about to pierce into Ye Chen’s body.

The Celestial Mark Sword shot out from Ye Chen’s Storage Ring, landing in his palm.

The power surged within Ye Chen, three forces instantaneously merged harmoniously, and he swept out a sword slash!

The sword light, filled with a sharp edge, tore apart the illusion in the room!

”Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!”

Four crisp sounds rang out.

The four daggers broke in succession.

A powerful burst of energy struck Chun Hua and Qiu Yue, sending all four of them flying backward uncontrollably.

”Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!”

The four bodies slammed against the wall of the room, creating ripples, then Chun Hua and Qiu Yue’s four bodies slid down to the corner of the room.

Blood gushed from their noses and mouths, and their faces bore expressions of not just pain, but also incredulous astonishment.

Details of the Great Zhou Dynasty Martial Arts Academy’s grand competition had long since spread far and wide.

Everyone knew Ye Chen had the strength to defeat a first-layer Transcendence opponent with a single blow.

But they laid the trap in advance and attacked together, thinking it was foolproof... However, it seemed that Ye Chen’s strength shown during the grand competition wasn’t his full power, or perhaps... in the few brief days since then, Ye Chen’s strength had skyrocketed!

”You... you saw through it from the start? You drove out Hua Ao Bone and the others to make it easier to take action?!”

One woman struggled to her feet, her voice sharp.

Ye Chen’s eyes were cold as a blade, ”Though you hid well, you couldn’t fool my eyes.

The mastermind had you come to assassinate me, and even set a very effective sealing restriction in this room. You intended to kill me quietly here, but in the end, this setup sealed your own escape route.

Perhaps.

The one who sent you never planned on letting you continue living.

After my death, you too will die.

In this way, the mastermind can be at ease without worrying about reprisals from our Cangxing Martial Arts Academy.”

”Ye Chen, don’t use such cheap tricks to sow discord. Don’t think you can get any information from us, and do you really think we’ve already lost to you?!”

Another woman shouted angrily; there was a sense of her power burning within her. Her fair and pink skin began to quickly turn dull and aged, covered in wrinkles, and in the blink of an eye, she transformed from a bewitching beauty into a repulsive hag!

The remaining three women did the same, burning their power wildly, their false beauty dissipating like smoke.

This was their true appearance.

The four shared the same cultivation technique, their power interconnected; their might suddenly multiplied many times over, and in the small room, their power continuously solidified, seemingly ready to fill the entire room completely!

”Sow discord?” Ye Chen sneered, ”I was merely telling you a fact. Whether you choose to speak or not, I don’t care.”

As he spoke, the sharpness around Ye Chen became even more intense.

The power unleashed by the four old hags within Chun Hua Qiu Yue was sliced into pieces by the sharpness around Ye Chen.

In an instant.

Ye Chen’s foot flashed with golden light, appearing in front of one old hag in a breath.

The old hag’s face was filled with terror.

The other three old hags couldn’t support in time.

Their interconnected power was also cut off by the sharpness surrounding Ye Chen.

The Celestial Mark Sword in Ye Chen’s hand slashed down suddenly.

”Swish!”

The sword light, like a ribbon, directly cleaved the old hag before him into two!

Immediately after.

Ye Chen’s figure flickered continuously.

One sword after another.

Of the remaining three old hags, two were again sliced into halves by Ye Chen’s sword.

Although the three old hags had been cut into halves, Ye Chen hadn’t cleaved their heads; thus, they lay on the ground, emitting shrill screams, their intestines and innards spilling everywhere, the stench unbearably thick!

This room.

Had already been thoroughly sealed by restrictions.

The shrill screams echoed, the pungent stench intensified!

The only old hag left standing trembled all over, her skirt was already dripping with an unknown liquid.

Devil!

In her eyes, Ye Chen was simply a demon!

Ye Chen looked at the remaining elderly woman with cold eyes, the sword point aimed at her forehead, not saying a word, but this old woman became more afraid.

”I... I will speak... it’s Yan Wen Yue from the Prime Minister’s Mansion... We were hunted down by our enemies back then, she saved our lives, and then we worked for her... Yan Wen Yue is in a secret room on the top floor of Chunxiao Pavilion...

I beg you... kill me, give me a quick death... please don’t torture me...”

She knew she was certain to die; her only wish now was to avoid being tortured in such agony as her three companions.

...

In Chunxiao Pavilion, Hua Ao Bone and a few of his sycophant friends switched to another private room and continued their merriment.

The group clinked glasses, having a grand time.

Suddenly.

The air inside the entire private room became incredibly cold.

Everyone felt as though they had fallen into an ice cellar.

Hua Ao Bone looked at the silhouette standing at the doorway, which was somehow opened without anyone knowing, his face instantly turned ghostly pale, color drained!

”Sis... Sis...” Hua Ao Bone’s lips trembled.

The others, upon hearing it was Hua Ao Bone’s sister, immediately wanted to turn around and see her real face.

There were countless rumors endlessly praising Hua Qianxue in the streets and alleys, yet those who had seen her were few and far between.

But before they could turn their heads, they each let out a miserable scream, being sent flying by a powerful force, crashing through the private room.

Hua Qianxue’s body emitted a dazzling glow, enveloping the entire private room, preventing anyone from seeing any scene inside.

Hua Ao Bone’s whole body was drenched in cold sweat.

In the Hua Family, he feared neither heaven nor earth, even when his old man threatened to kill him multiple times, he was never afraid.

However, he feared Hua Qianxue.

”Ye Chen, where is he?”

Hua Qianxue’s tone was calm, without any trace of mundane life.

But Hua Ao Bone knew his sister was now very angry!

His sister rarely got angry...

Even a few days ago, when she went alone to the Feiyang Martial Arts Academy and hacked through all the Mortal Transformation Realm experts, she didn’t actually get angry.

But now, his sister, because he brought Ye Chen to a brothel, was extremely, extremely angry!

Thinking of this.

Hua Ao Bone somehow mustered up the courage and said, ”Sis, Zhou Chengqian is a hypocrite, he’s not worthy of you!

And Ye Chen, he’s no good either, he’s not worthy of you!

I just wanted to test Ye Chen, and as a result, he couldn’t stand the test... He went up there, and asked for four women alone!”

In daily life, Hua Qianxue appeared indifferent towards Hua Ao Bone, but in reality, she understood this twin brother of hers very well, knowing he wasn’t lying at this moment.

”Alright, then I’ll wait here for him to come out,” Hua Qianxue said.

”Sis, he’s not worth it for you to do this!” Hua Ao Bone insisted on his point of view.

Hua Qianxue replied, ”But... I trust him.”

At this moment.

A huge rumbling sound emerged.

The entire Chunxiao Pavilion shook!

An incredibly powerful aura swept out from the area of the explosion, filling every corner of Chunxiao Pavilion.

This aura was cold, fierce, aloof, resolute.

Panic-filled shouts connected in a continuous stream.

A faint smile appeared at the corners of Hua Qianxue’s mouth as she walked out of the private room, rose into the air, and came to the side of the explosion area.

In that shattered private room, Ye Chen stepped out.

At this moment.

He saw Hua Qianxue, still as before, her aloof face reflecting unmatched beauty.

This was the first real meeting between them since separating at Cangxing Martial Arts Academy.

At Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, Ye Chen occasionally heard news about Hua Qianxue.

When he came to the Capital City, Hua Qianxue had first beheaded Zhou Chengqian with a single sword strike, and then, to defend his honor, had rushed overnight alone to the Feiyang Martial Arts Academy, toppling all of Feiyang’s Mortal Transformation Realm experts!

Hua Qianxue also saw Ye Chen.

She had always been focused on everything related to Ye Chen.

In the Unparalleled County, Ye Chen sword-slashed all elites below the Primordial Embryo level of the Celestial Sword Sect, condensed the Extreme Celestial Spirit Seal, encountered heavy calculations in the Demon Suppression Valley, survived despite nine deaths and secured tremendous merits by destroying the magic source.

After he came to Capital City, he defeated a multitude of challengers, securing victory in the team competition of the grand battle for Cangxing Martial Arts Academy, and in the individual competition, despite constant targeting, he remained overwhelmingly dominant, clinching first place!

In Hua Qianxue’s eyes, there was no longer any trace of that once desperate fugitive.

What she now saw in Ye Chen was the demeanor of an unparalleled swordsman!

The two were silent for a moment.

Ye Chen suddenly grinned and said, ”Little girl, long time no see.”
