The Divine Urban Physician

Chapter 2898: Chapter 2872: Under One Sword, As If Facing the Abyss! (Third Update)

He originally had no interest in this competition, but now he had changed his mind.

Li Kun, threatening me?

Hehe...

A trace of amusement flashed in Ye Chen’s eyes. He hadn’t expected Ouyang Xi to come to the Taiyuan Sword Sect for a visit. In that case, he did not plan to miss this good show.

Immediately, several people headed toward the Battle Arena.

Soon, they entered the Battle Arena. At this moment, a middle-aged man with a thin face, his hands clasped behind his back, exuding an imposing aura, appeared in front of them accompanied by a burly man.

”Sect master! Elders!”

Li Kun and his two companions all saluted the two people respectfully.

The middle-aged man was none other than Yue Qingshan, the sect master of the Taiyuan Sword Sect!

Yue Qingshan and the sage-like old man both wore heavy expressions. He said to Li Kun, ”Li Kun, do not force yourself in the upcoming battle!”

Hearing this, Li Kun was slightly taken aback.

Don’t force myself? What does that mean?

Could it be that the sect master thought he was no match for Ouyang Xi?

His gaze was profound, responding faintly with a ”Yes!”

Yet it was impossible to discern what was in his heart.

Zhou Rou saw Yue Qingshan and was not as respectful as Li Kun and Lin Siqi, but rather affectionately said, ”Dad!”

She turned out to be the daughter of the Taiyuan Sword Sect’s sect master!

No wonder Lin Siqi had been unable to abandon Zhou Rou despite feeling angry and dissatisfied with her behavior on the way, not even daring to speak sternly.

Afterward, Zhou Rou coquettishly introduced Ye Chen’s situation to Yue Qingshan. Although Yue Qingshan appeared somewhat reluctant, he couldn’t refuse his beloved daughter and eventually agreed to let Ye Chen stay in the Taiyuan Sword Sect to recuperate.

Zhou Rou and Lin Siqi sat together with the sect master and the sage-like old man, while Ye Chen was placed among the ranks of outer disciples.

People around cast curious glances at Ye Chen, but Ye Chen remained indifferent, and they never discerned anything from him.

But after a moment, the sounds of discussion gradually increased, and the eyes of the Taiyuan Sword Sect disciples looking at Ye Chen were filled with disgust!

And in the distance, at the seats of the true disciples, Lin Siqi wore a sneer, whispering with the person next to her!

Evidently, some unfavorable rumors about Ye Chen had spread from Lin Siqi!

Now, the disciples of the Taiyuan Sword Sect saw Ye Chen as despicable and shameless, pretending to be dead, not hesitating to drag Zhou Rou and Lin Siqi into danger to lure the naïve and ignorant Zhou Rou, and relying on pretense and sensationalism to attract attention!

Does such a man deserve to sit in their Taiyuan Sword Sect?

Were it not for the imminent duel between Ouyang Xi and Li Kun, they would undoubtedly have driven Ye Chen out of the Taiyuan Sword Sect!

At this moment, a young man dressed in a Blood Robe slowly entered the Battle Arena—it was Ouyang Xi!

A slight, indistinct smile rested on his face as he stood quietly in the arena.

Yet, the invisible pressure emanating from him instantly silenced the previously noisy Battle Arena!

He hadn’t used his full strength earlier when he struck at Ye Chen!

Li Kun moved and appeared in front of Ouyang Xi.

Ouyang Xi smiled, ”I heard you have comprehended the Taiyuan Sword Intent?”

The crowd was slightly stunned; Ouyang Xi actually knew that Li Kun had comprehended the Taiyuan Sword Intent?

They had originally hoped that Ouyang Xi would challenge with ignorance, underestimating Li Kun’s strength!

Li Kun responded coldly, ”You know, and still dare to come?”

”Why wouldn’t I dare?”

Ouyang Xi’s smile grew even more wanton.

”Taiyuan Sword Intent, passed down from ancient times, it is said that it was realized when the founder of the Taiyuan Sword Sect cut through the Abyss with a single sword and is known as a sword for the ages, its power awe-inspiring!

Throughout history, every disciple of the Taiyuan Sword Sect who could understand the Taiyuan Sword Intent was a talent of extraordinary genius, an unparalleled strongman. However, the youngest one to comprehend it was still as old as three thousand years, and even so, he was deemed a rare Sword Dao genius of his era!”

”And you, Li Kun, have surpassed that sword genius by a hundredfold! At just over thirty years old, you comprehended the Taiyuan Sword Intent, marking you as the first in the history of the Taiyuan Sword Sect!”

Accompanied by Ouyang Xi’s words, Li Kun stood taller, his face full of pride, while the disciples of the Taiyuan Sword Sect were also excited and thrilled!

Indeed, Li Kun was their pride, the idol they worshipped, undoubtedly the number one in Taiyuan!

But the next moment, a trace of helplessness suddenly flashed in Ouyang Xi’s eyes as he said, ”However, in my opinion, the Taiyuan Sword Intent is just so-so.”

Silence!

The entire Battle Arena fell into a dead silence!

Originally, one by one the excited disciples, whose blood was boiling, felt as if their brains were filled with ten thousand tons of ice, instantly cooling down, their expressions stiffened!

For many, the goal of their life was to comprehend the Taiyuan Sword Intent!

Now, Ouyang Xi actually said the Taiyuan Sword Intent was just so-so?

Such arrogance!!!

”Hmph!”

Li Kun looked at Ouyang Xi with a chill in his eyes, snorting coldly, and the next moment, without any warning, drew his sword and attacked!

He shouted, ”If you think it’s so-so, then see if you can take this sword of mine before you say that again!”

Facing Ouyang Xi, Li Kun did not have the slightest intention of retreating or fear and attacked directly!

Lin Siqi’s beautiful eyes brightened with divine light; she smiled excitedly, ”Such a man is truly a man, confident, proud, looking down on the world! Only such a man is worthy of a woman’s love!”

Saying this, Lin Siqi looked at Zhou Rou and said, ”Rou’er, remember your sister’s words, don’t be deceived by some random guy; you’ll suffer for it.”

She was obviously referring to Ye Chen!

Yet, Zhou Rou seemed to not understand the meaning behind Lin Siqi’s words, only smiling at Lin Siqi and saying, ”Sister, when are you planning to accept Senior Brother Li’s pursuit since you admire him so much?”

Lin Siqi’s beautiful eyes rippled as she said, ”Regardless of winning or losing, after this competition, I will agree to him!”

At this moment, the ice-blue long sword in Li Kun’s hand suddenly rippled with blue light like water waves, instantly permeating the entire Battle Arena – that was Li Kun’s True Martial Intent!

The crowd felt that True Martial Intent with excitement; to touch the True Martial Intent at thirty was truly astonishing!

Not only that, from the True Martial Intent suddenly burst forth a pitch-black sword light, containing a deep, heavy Sword Intent filled with unknown pressure!

It was as if a bottomless, inexplicable terrifying Abyss unfurled before everyone!

That, was the Taiyuan Sword Intent!

With one sword strike, all things condensed, True Martial Intent and Taiyuan Sword Intent accompanying it, this sword seemed to suppress even Heaven and Earth, sword qi raging, and on the protective barrier of the Battle Arena, countless sword marks instantly appeared, and the stage made from ancient materials was instantly slashed with countless fissures, even the Void was frantically shattering!

One sword strike, as if facing the Abyss!
