Chapter 692: Chapter 369: Luo Cheng, Get Out Here!

Traveling with Yun Tianyan was a young man clad in a Flame Patterned Cloud Robe, with long, narrow eyes.

His build was imposing, and his gaze sharp as a blade. Standing with hands behind his back in midair, he exuded an aura of strength, fierce like fire, causing the surrounding clouds to silently and completely vanish!

The young man was none other than Xu Daoyan, the chief True Disciple of the Fierce Cloud Sect!

Upon learning that Luo Cheng had appeared in Yunquan City, Yun Tianyan immediately set out without delay, unexpectedly encountering him along the way.

Usually with eyes bright as deities, Yun Tianyan’s demeanor was now respectful and he asked:

“Senior Brother Xu, I heard from our master that you were in seclusion, attempting to break through to the True Man Path, why are you here?”

Xu Daoyan smiled and said, “I am searching for traces of the Blood Demon.”

“Blood Demon?”

Yun Tianyan thought of something and said, “Is Senior Brother here for the Blood Evil Essence Crystal?”

“Exactly…”

Xu Daoyan had long been a Heavenly-level Great Power. Originally in seclusion cultivating, he emerged immediately upon hearing rumors of a Blood Demon appearing during the assault on the Blood Nether Sect stronghold to search for it.

“The True Man Path, unifying spirit and flesh, refining false into true, the key lies in the word ’true’, which is closely linked to one’s soul power and will. The stronger the soul power will, the greater the hope to become a True Master! The Blood Evil Essence Crystal can temper the will and increase soul power; it’s essentially a gift for breaking through to become a True Master!”

Yun Tianyan, having awakened a Ten-star Spiritual Martial Soul with great potential, was highly regarded by the sect. Xu Daoyan intended to guide this fellow disciple, and he continued to explain to Yun Tianyan:

“You should also pay attention to cultivating this aspect in your daily practice. If you encounter any Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures that can temper the will and enhance soul power, do not miss them. This will determine how far you can go in the future.”

Yun Tianyan nodded, “Thank you for the guidance, Senior Brother!”

Xu Daoyan leveled his gaze, “Yunquan City is not far ahead. I heard that you have an agreement to duel to the death with Luo Cheng from the Xuanyuan Sect there.”

“Indeed. That Luo Cheng cost our Fierce Cloud Sect the first place in the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition, which was a tremendous loss. And now, he has publicly crippled Junior Brother Liu Jue, acting arrogantly to the extreme! If we don’t make him pay, how would the world view our Fierce Cloud Sect?” Yun Tianyan’s eyes were icy cold.

“Haha, well said, he indeed deserves to pay the price.”

Xu Daoyan nodded and said, “However, this person managed to cripple Liu Jue with one sword, indicating he is not weak. Are you entirely confident about this duel? Don’t let the gutter overturn the boat.”

Yun Tianyan replied confidently, “Rest assured, Senior Brother. Liu Jue was too careless then; he didn’t expect this waste with a Wasted Martial Soul to achieve a Sword Intent Prototype of nine percent late stage, which is why he fell for it! In a fair match, Junior Brother Liu Jue might not have lost.”

“Moreover, my Sword Intent has further improved recently, reaching the realm of half-step Sword Intent, allowing the Sword Intent to persist for half a breath’s time! Killing him would be as easy as turning my hand!”

As he spoke, Yun Tianyan pointed with two fingers in the air.

Swish!

A sword shadow, both real and illusory, tore through the cloud ahead, exposing sharp edges that completely segregated the clouds.

Only after half a breath did the sword shadow dissipate with the wind.

“Oh? You have started mastering Sword Intent Transformation; it seems you are not far from becoming a Sword Intent Level Swordsman.”

Xu Daoyan’s eyes brightened, nodding in praise, and said, “With your strength, combined with the half-step Sword Intent, you are more than capable of dominating the Three Sects of Awakening Vein Realm. This battle is practically in the bag. Besides searching for the Blood Demon this time, I am also here on Master’s orders to take you to Yunquan City to make sure you slay Luo Cheng and win this fight.”

“Master?”

Yun Tianyan was a bit surprised.

After the great battle of besieging the Blood Nether Sect stronghold concluded, he did not return to the Fierce Cloud Sect, unexpectedly alarmed True Master Fiery Fire.

Xu Daoyan said, “You may not know. Master and the Supreme Elder of Xuanyuan Sect, Ming Sect, are arch-enemies, openly and secretly fighting for many years. Ten years ago, under Master’s instruction, I fought a life-and-death duel with Ming Sect’s Direct Disciple and personally killed him.”

“Unexpectedly, ten years later, you are facing off against this Luo Cheng. To my knowledge, this Luo Cheng is the newly accepted Direct Disciple of Ming Sect.”

“I see! What a coincidence indeed!”

Yun Tianyan squinted his eyes, sneering, “It seems that their lineage is destined to die by our hands.”

Xu Daoyan nodded, “This battle concerns not only your personal victory or defeat but also Master and the sect’s honor! You must win, not lose.”

Yun Tianyan stated coldly, “Rest assured a million times, Senior Brother, I will personally sever Luo Cheng’s head and let the world know the consequences of offending our Fierce Cloud Sect!”

“That’s good. Let’s go and strive to resolve this today!”

Xu Daoyan quickened his pace.

Swish!

Flame light flashed in the void, and when the two figures reappeared, they were already ten miles away.

Yunlan Restaurant.

The performance was nearing its end.

Jin Yuxi suddenly whispered to Luo Cheng, “Luo Cheng, be careful of Li Shaofeng; he has been watching you since earlier, seemingly harboring ill intentions.”

Jin Tiandu also nodded solemnly, “Li Shaofeng is arrogant and conceited. Losing so badly at your hands today is an indelible humiliation for him! Ranked forty-first on the Domain List, his combat strength is by no means simple.”

Upon hearing this, Luo Cheng shifted his gaze and met Li Shaofeng’s eyes, filled with venomous resentment.

As their eyes clashed, it was as if sparks were flying in the void!

“Hmm.”

Luo Cheng indifferently withdrew his gaze.

He naturally didn’t doubt the strength of a Domain List genius, but in the past half month, his strength had undergone a qualitative change as well!

As of today, only the top ten of the Domain List, no! Only the top three could pique his interest!

Li Shaofeng, ranked forty-first on the Domain List, was clearly not among them.

Seeing Luo Cheng so composed, Jin Tiandu was somewhat surprised, and couldn’t help but have a thought cross his mind.

“This can’t be possible…”

His gaze circled between Luo Cheng and Li Shaofeng, Jin Tiandu gently shook his head, dismissing the crazy thought that had suddenly sprung up. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel⁂fire.net

In the earlier Sword Intent duel, although Luo Cheng held the upper hand, Sword Intent does not represent a swordsman’s true combat power. Moreover, Luo Cheng relied on a secret technique for his sudden outburst of Sword Intent, so his endurance was questionable.

Li Shaofeng, ranked forty-first on the Domain List, represented a solid record, indicating that his overall attributes had reached top level among Awakening Vein Realm experts.

Compared to that, Luo Cheng’s foundation was too shallow, and his cultivation was only at the Ninth Layer Late Stage of Awakening Vein Realm. If they were to fight, he would certainly find it hard to match.

Otherwise, that would be too astonishing.

And quite unlikely.

With this in mind, Jin Tiandu glanced at Luo Cheng once more.

At this moment, the performance ended, and Princess Yaoguang said with a bright smile:

“Everyone, we are not the only ones interested in the Blood Demon. Time is of the essence, so let’s discuss our next plan and strive to find the Blood Demon quickly…”

She spoke softly, her voice like a gentle spring breeze sweeping through the courtyard. Her exquisitely beautiful face showed no ripples, as if nothing had happened.

Luo Cheng stood up, bowed, and said, “Princess Yaoguang, since this gathering is for slaying the Blood Demon, my strength is too meager, so I won’t participate.”

Luo Cheng indeed had no particular interest in this gathering. He simply didn’t want to dampen everyone else’s enthusiasm, which is why he came along.

As for the Blood Evil Essence Crystal, he was self-aware enough to know that with his current strength, having any presumptuous desires for it would undoubtedly be a suicidal action.

If it wasn’t for Li Shaofeng’s unpleasant words earlier, he would have gotten up and left long ago, uninterested in entangling with the other party.

Interrupted while speaking, Princess Yaoguang looked at Luo Cheng with a hint of impatience in her eyes, but it soon settled into tranquility, becoming again ethereal and perceptive, noble and beautiful, as she smiled:

“Since Mr. Luo Cheng is not interested, I won’t detain you, Yaoguang won’t hold you back.”

“Farewell!”

Luo Cheng turned and prepared to leave.

Yin Li said nothing, stood up, and followed Luo Cheng out of the pavilion, ignoring the astonished gazes around them.

Jin Yuxi also gently tugged at Jin Tiandu’s sleeve.

Understanding her thoughts, Jin Tiandu, slightly helpless, pondered for a bit, then stood up and said:

“Princess Yaoguang, regarding the information on the Blood Demon, all I currently know is what I’ve shared. If I get any more news, I’ll notify you. Farewell for now.”

Seeing Jin Tiandu and others intending to follow Luo Cheng away, Princess Yaoguang’s expression changed slightly, her eyes glinting with flickers of lightning.

From a young age, everything she wanted to do had always been successful, no one would dare offend her. But today, a mere Luo Cheng disrupted her carefully planned gathering…

At this point, two disciples from the Jile Sect stood up gracefully from the second pavilion on the left.

“Princess Yaoguang, we too shall take our leave first.”

The matter of finding the Holy Artifacts was far too important, and even the slimmest chance could not be abandoned. They intended to take this opportunity to observe Luo Cheng more.

“Are you all leaving too?”

Princess Yaoguang’s expression could no longer remain calm, the lightning color in her eyes grew brilliantly resplendent.

Luo Cheng was quite surprised; he hadn’t expected his departure to cause such a stir, undoubtedly offending the high-and-mighty Princess Yaoguang.

However, he didn’t care much, instead quickening his pace, only wanting to rid himself of these troubles posthaste.

“Luo Cheng, get out here!”

At that moment, the air suddenly shook, and a voice filled with hostility resonated from afar, loud as thunder, echoing throughout Yunquan City!

Yun Tianyan!

Luo Cheng squinted his eyes immediately!
