Chapter 1620 - 1496: Crisis
Immediately, two figures stepped into the courtyard.
Shui Yiyi quickly ran out, seeing an elderly person and a young one enter the courtyard. She was slightly taken aback and asked, "Excuse me, who are you?"
What a captivating woman! Upon seeing Shui Yiyi, the handsome and mystical youth’s eyes lit up suddenly, and then he arrogantly said, "Where’s that one-armed child?"
"Who are you?"
Ye Bufan walked out, his expression calm as he spoke.
A glimmer of apprehension flashed in his eyes.
He could sense that these two in front of him, the elderly and the young, were not simple individuals.
They were martial artists, very powerful martial artists.
"Luosheng Sect, Ma Gu!"
A few cold words were uttered, and the young man’s long robe swayed gracefully and elegantly.
Yes, this youth was precisely Ma Gu.
Ma Gu of the Luosheng Sect.
Even when at Huayu Group, Ma Gu, relying on his own status, scared away the overbearing Wan Potian!
"Ma Gu? Luosheng Sect? What are you doing here? We don’t seem to know you," Shui Yiyi felt a tinge of unease in her heart.
Ma Gu didn’t look at Shui Yiyi, but stared straight at Ye Bufan, saying:
"Very good, your talent is excellent, just what we need in Luosheng Sect as a disciple. Come with me!"
"Who are you?"
Almost the same scene was playing out in another place.
Atop a mountain peak, Ye Qingfeng coldly stared at the elderly and the young in front of him.
The young one was a long-haired youth, his hair somewhat disheveled and blowing freely, with a longsword sheathed at his waist, ancient and natural, clearly not an ordinary weapon.
"Divine Sword Hall, Dugu Xiao!"
The long-haired youth uttered a few indifferent words, his expression extremely cold.
Dugu Xiao, Ye Qingfeng raised an eyebrow. He had heard of this person, a top genius in the Ancient Martial World, whom Kong Ningshuang often compared to Ma Gu and himself.
Ye Qingfeng naturally never paid them any mind.
"I don’t care who you are, get out of the way!" Coldness flashed in Ye Qingfeng’s eyes.
He only wanted to return to East River City now and didn’t want to waste time here.
It had been a long time since he had returned to Sky No.1!
"Perhaps you have heard of my name, or maybe not, but I have heard of you! The devil of the Mortal World, Ye Qingfeng!" A sudden glimmer appeared in Dugu Xiao’s cold eyes.
"In all the world, there has never been a devil like you. I’m very curious as to what realm you have reached. I just hope you won’t disappoint me!"
"You want to challenge me?" Ye Qingfeng frowned.
"You can understand it that way. I hear you also wield a sword; coincidentally, I want to use your sword as a stepping stone in my pursuit of the Sword Dao." Dugu Xiao remained as cold as ever.
A blaze of anger and a murderous intent rose in Ye Qingfeng’s heart; as the grand Nine Tribulations Immortal Venerable, how could he possibly compete with a martial artist?
"With me, there’s no sparring—only life and death battle!" Ye Qingfeng said icily.
"If you can kill me."
"I have no regrets!"
With that, Dugu Xiao already held his ancient longsword, drawing it in an instant, emitting a cold glint.
"This is the treasure sword passed down in our Linghu Family, Soul-breaking, ready for battle!"
Ye Qingfeng’s brow furrowed, anger flaring within him, being arbitrarily blocked by this person who wanted to use Ye Qingfeng as a stepping stone to achieve his Sword Dao.
Ridiculous and laughable.
"A piece of trash, dare to call itself Soul-breaking!"
Ye Qingfeng’s eyes were indifferent, flashing with disdain!
"Swish!"
A crimson glow flashed, suddenly, the Futu Sword was unleashed, with fiery red marks attached to the sword’s body, flowing like molten lava.
How did this sword appear?
Dugu Xiao and the elder behind him both quivered in shock, almost unable to believe it, and moreover, the sword Ye Qingfeng wielded was indeed too extraordinary.
Even the Soul-breaking couldn’t compare at all.
"Indeed, they say you’re a devil, and you indeed have some skills!" Dugu Xiao showed no fear, but rather a bit of delight in his eyes.
"Kill!"
At this time, Ye Qingfeng moved, wielding the Futu Sword to slash out a few sharp and dazzling Sword Lights.
Inside the villa.
"I’ve already said, I won’t go to the Ancient Martial World, I already have a master." Ye Bufan’s eyes flashed with bursts of coldness.
He had already refused, but this young man relentlessly pursued it, making him somewhat angry.
He could see that this youth seemed unwilling to give up without achieving his goals!
"Nobody can refuse the Luosheng Sect, not in the Ancient Martial World, and certainly not in the Mortal World!" Ma Gu, however, wasn’t angry, but rather said calmly.
His elegant and leisurely demeanor carried a hint of arrogance, a pride that could not be refused.
"Your master is just a useless person, the Luosheng Sect is the place that can truly fulfill you."
"My master, Ye Qingfeng, is the most powerful person in the world!" Ye Bufan said coldly.
"Ye Qingfeng?"
Ma Gu raised an eyebrow lightly, with a faint smile, and said disdainfully, "If it weren’t for my intervention last time, if it weren’t for Ningshuang pleading for him, he would have been killed already."
Anger flashed in Ye Bufan’s eyes, just as he was about to speak, Ma Gu interrupted: "Don’t refuse me again, my patience is limited."
As soon as he finished speaking, the elder behind him stepped forward, his frail and aged body exuding a powerful aura, as towering as a majestic mountain, causing one’s heart to tremble.
If Ye Bufan refused, it was clear this elder would take action!
"You, if you forcefully take Bufan away, Ye Qingfeng will surely seek revenge. Ye Qingfeng is truly powerful!" Shui Yiyi’s heart was filled with fear, but she still gritted her teeth and said.
"I said, he is nothing but trash!" Ma Gu’s demeanor suddenly changed, shouting in extreme anger.
He remembered, Kong Ningshuang pleaded for Ye Qingfeng, saved him, drove away Wan Potian.
The woman he liked, however, pleaded for another, making the proud Ma Gu unable to accept.
Now, the genius he had his eyes on was also a disciple of Ye Qingfeng.
This woman, now also says Ye Qingfeng is very powerful!
It’s as if everyone in the world thinks this Ye Qingfeng is so impressive!
Ma Gu was enraged, the resentment in his heart suddenly erupted, his handsome face twisted instantly, shouting fiercely: "You mortals know nothing!"
"Bang!"
Ma Gu’s aura burst forth, a surge of energy swept out, instantly sending Shui Yiyi flying, crashing directly into the wall.
"Mistress!"
Ye Bufan exploded in rage, the flame in his eyes igniting instantly, his entire body trembling, with the spiritual power within him boiling.
In this world, only two people were closest to him: one was Ye Qingfeng, the other was Shui Yiyi.
They were the most important people in his life.
"Die for me!"
Ye Bufan, engulfed in anger, with the flying sword in his hand exploding in a strong white light, dazzling and fierce.
