Checking in for 100,000 Years

Chapter 1324: Chapter 1324: Truly Heaven’s Help

For a long time.

Jiang Lengyue and Pan Wu have always been evenly matched, without a clear winner.

This time, facing the trial of the Thousand Lakes Sword Array, in Jiang Lengyue’s view, their treatment should naturally be similar.

If she encountered a two-layered sword array, while Pan Wu faced a three-layered sword array, Jiang Lengyue would always feel inferior to Pan Wu.

”Could it be that Pan Wu has had some fortuitous encounters over the years? Making this guy’s strength slightly stronger than mine now?”

The thoughts in Jiang Lengyue’s mind were racing, and her heart grew increasingly uncomfortable.

Ye Yun, standing nearby, couldn’t help but smile upon hearing Jiang Lengyue’s soft whispers and seeing her downcast expression.

What nonsense about three layers!

It’s clearly just one layer, okay?

Although Ye Yun knew the truth, he didn’t intend to reveal it for now.

There were many Sword Dao prides standing around them, who naturally also heard Jiang Lengyue’s words.

”Oh my, the Golden Sword God encountered a three-layered sword array inside the Thousand Lakes Sword Array!”

A young cultivator of the Second Layer of God King Realm gasped in shock and couldn’t help but exclaim.

”Three layers—this is already the limit for all of us here, right?”

Looking at the blurry golden figure, a cultivator of the God King Stature Third Layer swallowed hard and said with difficulty.

Not far from the two.

A youth in a red robe nodded, deeply admiring with a thumbs up, and praised: ”Three layers are already the highest, there’s no other!”

”Haha, worthy of the Golden Sword God, always so powerful, only the Third Layer can injure him in the Thousand Lakes Sword Array...”

Another person said admiringly.

”Indeed!”

”The Golden Sword God is too strong!”

”...”

For a moment, many of the Sword Dao prides in the square praised and discussed enthusiastically.

Listening to the crowd’s words.

Jiang Lengyue frowned slightly, and her extremely beautiful face appeared even more serious.

”Hahaha...”

In the Divine Mountain Hall, a burst of laughter erupted.

”These little guys really do love spreading rumors!”

Deputy Pavilion Master Xu stroked his chin and laughed uncontrollably.

”Indeed! Jiang Lengyue said it casually, but people believed it to be true, and the more it spread, the more believable it became...”

Sikong Ying also said with a smile.

”That Ye Chen, what a rascal, if he hadn’t increased the sword array’s power, Pan Wu would have been out long ago!”

Elder Duan said with a wry smile.

Deputy Pavilion Master Xu, with a gentle smile, said calmly, ”Let them be troublesome; after all, they haven’t caused any real trouble. We always have to pamper such a rare Sword Dao pride...”

”Yes, yes...”

Elder Duan quickly nodded in agreement.

The expressions of the others also showed delight.

Everyone could see that Deputy Pavilion Master Xu increasingly appreciated this Ye Chen.

”This Ye Chen was recruited back by that kid Ling Tian, it seems I must reward him handsomely...”

Sikong Ying looked into the distance and thought to himself.

...

After an incense stick’s worth of time.

The dazzling golden light gradually faded, Pan Wu stood up again, refreshed, and free from any signs of fatigue.

Except for some damage to the golden battle armor on his body, no traces of the battle could be seen.

”This time was really close, if I were delayed a few more time units, I wouldn’t have been able to violently break through the sword array and come out...”

Pan Wu nervously glanced at the light gate above him, reminiscing with a lingering fear.

His peripheral vision also fell on Jiang Lengyue.

This woman, he didn’t know when she came out, but evidently, he seemed to have been at a disadvantage in this trial.

Feeling a bit dejected, suddenly Pan Wu heard the discussions of many Sword Dao prides around, and as he listened, his expression turned inscrutable.

It turned out...

Everyone was discussing that he had passed the test of the three-layered sword array.

”Truly, heaven helps me!”

Pan Wu laughed heartily in his heart, a subtle smile appearing on his face.

”Jiang Lengyue, after all these years without competing, it seems your progress isn’t significant, not even encountering a three-layered sword array!”

Pan Wu’s eyes were as sharp as a sword, staring coldly at Jiang Lengyue in the distance, speaking loudly.

”So what?”

Jiang Lengyue retorted with a sneer.

Even though she was at a disadvantage this round, it didn’t mean she would necessarily lose to Pan Wu.

As the White-Clothed Sword God, an invincible being in a domain, Jiang Lengyue held her pride.

”You are not as good as I am!”

Pan Wu suddenly laughed up towards the sky, laughing a bit maniacally.

Watching this guy’s clumsy performance, Ye Yun struggled to suppress his laughter and almost burst out.

This guy, is he a donkey?

He’s too good at playing along, isn’t he?

”Tsk tsk, breaking through three layers of the sword array—even for the Golden Sword God, he will surely secure one of the places this time!”

Not far from Pan Wu, a middle-aged man of the Fifth Level of the Divine King Realm praised.

”Indeed!”

Many Sword Dao prides nodded.

However, a few people, with chilly eyes and extremely unfriendly demeanors, stood out.

These few Sword Dao prides, having cultivation bases of the God King Stage Eight, were competitors of Pan Wu and others.

Jiang Lengyue’s face turned pale upon hearing the irritating laughter.

Being mocked by Pan Wu in front of everyone, her heart was very upset.

Pa...

A large hand suddenly patted her on the shoulder.

Jiang Lengyue was startled, turning her head quickly to find it was Ye Chen.

”Miss Jiang, I’ll vent your anger for you.”

Ye Yun beamed brilliantly, lowering his voice with a smile.

Jiang Lengyue, in a hurry, grabbed Ye Yun’s hand and said, ”Ye Chen, the gap between Pan Wu’s and your cultivation is huge, don’t fight him!”

”Don’t worry, I won’t kill him in the square; a gentleman solves problems with words, not fists!”

Ye Yun gave a devilish smile, casually rubbing a couple of times more.

Jiang Lengyue’s face instantly flushed red.

She didn’t expect Ye Chen to try to take advantage of her even at this moment.

But when she thought about how she had already been taken advantage of once before, another time didn’t seem unacceptable.

Besides, this time Ye Chen was also trying to stick up for her.

Thinking this way.

Jiang Lengyue’s heart instead became calm and relaxed.

She never imagined her mentality would undergo such a wonderful change, which would have been unthinkable in the past.

Even if a cultivator of the Divine King Realm dared to touch a strand of her hair, Jiang Lengyue would definitely chop off their head with a sword.

Seeing Jiang Lengyue’s blush, Ye Yun was in a good mood, laughed twice, and strode towards Pan Wu.

He actually had no real interest in this little girl, just wanted to tease her.

Seeing Ye Chen walking towards him, Pan Wu frowned.

This young cultivator, why is he heading directly toward me?

What does he want?

As he was pondering, Ye Yun had already reached a distance of ten feet away.

”Did you pass the test of the three-layered sword array, Pan Wu?”

Ye Yun asked with a half-smile.

”Nonsense, could this be fake? If it was just a one-layered sword array, I would have been out already!”

Pan Wu sneered.

Although sneering, seeing Ye Chen’s strange smile, Pan Wu still felt a bit guilty.

Ye Yun’s expression suddenly changed, and he shouted coldly, ”Clearly, you only broke through a one-layered sword array, yet you’re so shamelessly claiming to have broken through three layers! Pan Wu, aren’t you shameless?”

”Don’t talk nonsense!”

Pan Wu’s heart felt uneasy, but on the surface, he looked fierce and forcefully retaliated.

His gaze was sharp, staring intently at Ye Yun, as if to eat him alive.

Seeing Pan Wu getting more and more ridiculous, and the performance becoming more convincing.

Ye Yun instead smiled, ”Pan Wu, I was right outside your sword array, I saw it clearly...”

”Ye Chen, if you keep spouting nonsense, believe it or not, I’ll...”

Pan Wu, hearing this, became furious, abruptly raising the golden sword.

”Stop it!”

A cold voice came through.

In the void, Elder Duan suddenly appeared.
