The Battle Through Heaven
Fighting Gu He
The atmosphere in the sky immediately became tense with the sword drawn after Gu He's laughter sounded.
The expressions of Jia Xing Tian and the others suddenly changed when they heard that/it was Xiao Yan actually making such a promise. Even though the power of the former had greatly surged, there was an enormous risk if he wanted to defeat Gu He in ten exchanges. Today, all the factions had gathered and headed to the Misty Cloud Sect in hopes of destroying it all at once. Moreover, there were a hundred thousand members of the army from the imperial family who started to surround the foot of the mountain. If Xiao Yan made a mistake at this moment and let Gu He receive his ten strikes, would they really have to stop all of their attacks, which they had prepared for a long time?
Wouldn't it be too childish if this was the case? After they withdrew today, the possibility that the/it Misty Cloud Sect would attack was exhausted the next day and came and searched for them one by one.
Xiao Yan waved his hand when he saw everyone's expressions. After which, he flapped the jade-green fire wings on his back and the unusual heat caused the people around him to feel a seething hot feeling. The calm young face caused Jia Xing Tian and the others to calm down a little.
” Calm down, due to my bloodshed with the Misty Cloud Sect, I will definitely not act recklessly ... ” Xiao Yan smiled and spoke slowly.
Everyone glanced at each other after hearing this. They did not continue to say anything after seeing Xiao Yan's insistence. No matter how one said it, they still held enough confidence towards the current Xiao Yan. Moreover, they clearly understood Xiao Yan's character and naturally knew that/that he would not make a mess in such a place.
’’ Xiao Yan, be careful. Gu He had advanced to the Dou Huang class. Moreover, it also controlled a kind of extremely powerful flame. Although this is not ‘Heavenly Fire’, its strength cannot be underestimated. ” Fa Ma reminded with a deep voice.
Xiao Yan nodded slightly. His gaze glanced at the purple flame wings on Gu He's back. As long as it wasn't ‘Heavenly Flame’, it wouldn't pose much of a threat to him.
Jia Xing Tian and the others paused for a moment before slowly retreating after a slight hesitation. They gave them both a large area in the sky.
The personal conversation below was greatly reduced after everyone moved back. Although there had been a lot of news about Xiao Yan spreading throughout the entire Jia Ma Empire recently, many people had never personally seen this young man, who had returned with great strength, either, in a one-sided battle inside the capital that day. Therefore, quite a number of people adopted a watching attitude on the side with cold eyes when they heard that/it was Xiao Yan shamelessly boasting that/that he could defeat Gu He in ten exchanges. The few experts who had enough ties with Gu He could not help but shake their heads. Everyone said that/that this person had incredible strength but he was ultimately just a young, arrogant and arrogant boy …
Yun Shan once again turned around and sat back down on the leader's seat. His eyes looked at the two people in the sky and the corner of his mouth lifted into a slight dark smile. He already knew that/that Gu He would not be able to withstand this humiliation and interference. Although the ten exchange deals exceeded his expectations slightly, it seemed like this would mean that/it was Gu He going all out. At that time, he should be able to cause Xiao Yan some injuries even if he lost to Xiao Yan.
Beneath the wedding stage, Yun Yun could not help but lift her beautiful face at this moment. A pair of bright eyes stared at the black robe in the sky. He felt as if he had trouble moving as he looked at the familiar face in a shocking manner. His face had a slight gentleness and was slightly more mature compared to three years ago. Clearly, the young man back then had completely changed during these three years.
Transformation from weak to strong!
When Jia Xing Tian and the others withdrew from the sky, the atmosphere there suddenly became sharp with Gu He's eyes staring at Xiao Yan in front of him. Three years ago, this black-robed young man could only compete with his disciple. However, three years later, he actually dared to make this ten exchange agreement in front of him. This transformation is between Heaven and Earth.
’’ Today, I will beat you in front of him! ’’ Gu He slowly spoke. His voice had just sounded when an extremely powerful purple Dou Qi surged out from his body. Dou Qi lingered on his skin and wriggled repeatedly, appearing like clusters of colored flames that emitted a hot temperature.
Xiao Yan's voice did not fluctuate much as he glanced towards the gloomy-looking Guou. ” If you insist on letting yourself be held by Yun Shan like a spear, it is only natural that I will not show any mercy .. ’’
” In this case, we will see if you have the qualifications to do so. ’’ Gu He angrily smiled. He clenched his fists and his Dou Qi fluctuated. A moment later, it agglomerated and formed a purple deep longsword in his palm. A ferocious flame burned in the longsword.
Xiao Yan smiled. His hand was facing the ground from a distance and was suddenly grasped with his five fingers. With a grab of his hand, the black-coloured ruler who had been put on the ground immediately shot out before turning into a black shadow that appeared and returned to Xiao Yan's hands.
Quite a number of people issued exclamations when they saw this skill that Xiao Yan had carelessly revealed. Being able to control a weapon from a great distance would require one's Dou Qi to achieve extremely tight precision. It was unexpected that/it Xiao Yan was able to have such control over Dou Qi at such an age.
’’ Ten exchanges. ’’ Xiao Yan lifted the heavy ruler flat and pointed it at Gu He before speaking softly.
Gu He's face trembled slightly. He did not continue to say unnecessary words as his eyes widened. He let out a loud scream and flapped purple fire wings on his back. His body instantly turned into a purple figure that shot explosively towards Xiao Yan in a lightning-like manner.
His body flashed across the sky and the tip of the sharp sword easily cut through the air with the help of a powerful Dou Qi. In the blink of an eye, the tip of the sword had already reached Xiao Yan's chest.
”About!”
A black figure flashed and an enormous heavy ruler strangely appeared in front of Xiao Yan. It was like a thick shield that easily blocked the purple flame longsword.
’’ Chi! ’’
Gu He's wrist trembled after his attack went to waste. His longsword was sharp like an unusual poisonous snake as it quickly rotated and moved across the heavy ruler before stabbing forward abruptly.
”About!”
The sharp longsword had just darted past the heavy ruler when its long finger was quickly extended. The finger immediately flicked and a lump of wind accurately struck the sword, bouncing it to the side. The heavy ruler waved at the same time and smashed towards Gu He's face.
Gu He's body moved back and easily dodged Xiao Yan's attack. His eyes suddenly became hard as Dou Qi flowed wildly within his body. The sword trembled intensely and countless shadows appeared in front of his body while it shook steadily.
” Thousand Blouses of Fire Sword! ’’
The sword images that appeared in all directions covered the front of Gu He's body in a few breaths. His hand trembled and the purple long sword was pushed forward. Immediately, countless afterimages penetrated into Xiao Yan like a torrent.
The image of the hot sword filled Xiao Yan's eyes. Although the countless number of afterimages appeared illusory, the power brought on them was not something that could be underestimated. If Xiao Yan were to carelessly accept such an attack, the actual sword light hidden in the shadow eyes would instantly appear unexpectedly, catching one completely unprepared.
One would be able to see the true abilities of Gu He just by looking at the sword techniques Dou Techniques he used. It was indeed not something that an ordinary expert could compare to. Moreover, the Dou Qi was supported by the purple flames, granting him even greater strength. Hence, many cheers rang out on the open ground below when Gu He's attack was unleashed. The expressions of Jia Xing Tian and the others involuntarily tightened.
Compared to the cheers and worries of others, Xiao Yan's mind was void of the slightest ripple. His gaze calmly looked at the images of hot swords coming from all directions. The ruler in his hand was raised horizontally and immediately drew a somewhat mysterious bow. His hands trembled and the ruler's body waving a piercing black figure in a deft manner. Although it did not seem to carry any power, the ruler technique presumably carried a huge wave-like movement where one wave surpassed the other in terms of sharpness in its attack.
The chi! The chi!
The heavy ruler who drew a mysterious bow instantly came into contact with the countless sword figures. At that moment, a fierce power suddenly erupted from the sword figure. Moreover, regardless of how many sword figures there were, they had difficulty breaking through the mysterious slow dance boundary of the heavy ruler. This way it was as if rain arrows were falling from all directions. When the arrows met the huge waves like the sea, they were all swallowed regardless of how many of them were present.
Gu He's face changed slightly as he felt a strange power being emitted from the other party's heavy ruler. He could sense that/it was a sword hidden within the shadow after which it gradually pulled closer the heavy ruler.
’’ This little boy does have skills! ’’This thought passed through his heart. His hand shook and the sword figure instantly escaped from the many shadows after, piercing towards Xiao Yan's chest.
The figure of the sword had just revealed itself when the heavy ruler who had some sort of strange dancing speed suddenly increased his speed. A suction force immediately erupted and pulled the longsword in such a way that the direction of his attack changed.
Gu He was surprised when the direction of the longsword attack changed. He was just about to make a move when the black shadow in front of him suddenly changed. The palm that contained a terrifying strength was viciously attacked. Seeing the other party's attack, Gu He refused to back down a bit. His expression turned cold and the Dou Qi in his palm quickly agglomerated. He immediately pressed down on Xiao Yan's palm without further ado.
’’ Bang! ’’
The two palms collided and a soul-shaking explosion immediately erupted in the sky. Two human figures immediately retaliated.
Xiao Yan staggered. His backward body stabilized before he swung his wrist. He raised his head and looked at Gu He who was flying back several tens of meters just to smile. After the previous exchange, he had already confirmed that/that Gu He's current strength should be around three star Dou Huangs. Perhaps it was because of the purple flames but Gu He's combat strength was comparable to a four or five star Dou Huang.
” Xiao Yan, we have completed eight exchanges before. ’’ Gu He flapped his purple fire wings to stabilize his body. He felt his somewhat numb hands before raising his head and letting out a cold laugh.
In the blink of an eye, they had already exchanged eight moves. However, from the looks of the battle, it seemed that both sides had the same strength. From the situation, it seemed like the previous shameless ten yen exchange agreement was just a joke.
Gu He did not hide his voice. Hence, the faces of everyone on the open ground suddenly became somewhat attractive. Some people even laughed out loud. This person was indeed just a little brat who acted arrogantly by relying on his small strength.
