Chapter 1442 - 1446: Head-on Collision

"Cultivation Cloud Sect's chief disciple, Xing Qing!"

Upon hearing Elder Li's words, Xing Qing pointed her Abyss Rainbow Sword towards him and said proudly.

"Hmph, Moon Gazing Sect Outer Elder, Li Yang!"

Elder Li snorted disdainfully, his hands behind his back, looking at Xing Qing with contempt.

"One sword to slay you, old dog!"

Xing Qing shouted coquettishly, leaping into the air, and slashed towards Elder Li with her sword.

Feeling the power of Xing Qing's imposing strike, Li Yang dared not be careless at all.

Although he outwardly appeared dismissive,

internally, he was extremely cautious.

He did not wish to fall into an unforeseen mishap!

Upon hearing Xing Qing's domineering and arrogant words, Li Yang waved his hand, and the long saber in his hand slashed down towards Xing Qing.

Watching this powerful clash from both sides, the crowd was somewhat astonished.

Especially Li Yang's extremely domineering strike, he had put all his strength into it right from the start.

The terror of a strike from a master at the peak of the Ninth Grade needs no further elaboration.

Needless to say, someone like Xing Qing who was only in the early stage of the Eighth Grade, even those more powerful than the Ninth Grade present had no confidence in withstanding Li Yang's strike.

Cheng Fangtian, upon seeing Li Yang's strike, was also quite satisfied.

Although this strike for him could be defeated with just a wave of hand,

below the Divine Realm, there were indeed not many who could contend with Li Yang in battle.

Over the years, Li Yang had obtained numerous cultivation resources through gifts from various small sects, and his cultivation had progressed rapidly.

Clang!

The tips of the weapons collided!

Xing Qing's Abyss Rainbow Sword and Li Yang's saber clashed together.

Instantly, a powerful energy wave, like ripples upon water, surged outward from the center where the two fought.

The terrifying aftershock of the battle frenziedly swept towards the crowd.

Cheng Fangtian waved his large hand, setting up a barrier in front of the Moon Gazing Sect disciples behind him to defend against wave after wave of the raging energy!

Yun Hao, on the other hand, remained completely unmoved, and the raging energy dissipated like a swirl in front of the Cultivation Cloud Sect disciples behind him.

Initially, seeing that Yun Hao hadn't made any moves, the Cultivation Cloud Sect disciples were quite frightened, each one very worried about being caught in the destructive energy.

Now it seemed, their worries were unnecessary!

As the turbulent energy dissipated, everyone focused their eyes once again.

Xing Qing and Li Yang were already engaged in a fierce battle.

Xing Qing, with her 'Man and Sword as One' technique, seemed as if she was an indestructible sharp blade, showing no fear even when facing the super master at the peak of the Ninth Grade.

Basically, every strike from Xing Qing was without hesitation.

And Li Yang, relying on his robust cultivation at the peak of the Ninth Grade, kept attacking relentlessly as well.

Even though his comprehension of saber techniques wasn't as profound as Xing Qing's understanding of swordsmanship,

Li Yang's cultivation was significantly higher.

The gap between the peak of the Ninth Grade and the early stage of the Eighth Grade was as vast as heaven and earth.

The two were both attacking fiercely, each move was made with the choice of a direct confrontation?

Evasion?

Nonexistent!

Li Yang was determined to use his superior cultivation, confronting Xing Qing head-on again and again, certain that he'd be the victor in the end.

At this moment, Li Yang held no trace of underestimation towards Xing Qing anymore!

The moment they crossed swords earlier, he realized.

Even though he was an Outer Elder of the Moon Gazing Sect, practicing very advanced Immortal Techniques from the Immortal Realm,

the young girl in front of him, at the early stage of the Eighth Grade, practiced techniques that were even more profound than his cultivation techniques.

If Li Yang was practicing low-level Immortal Techniques,

then Xing Qing was practicing high-level Immortal Techniques.

In this way, the disparity in their cultivation narrowed greatly!

Moreover, Xing Qing's comprehension of swordsmanship closed the gap between them even further.

Thus, a fiercely contested situation had formed!

Xing Qing cared nothing for this.

Holding her Abyss Rainbow Sword, she only knew one thing: attack!

Attack is the best defense!

For a swordsman, attack is paramount!

"Master, does Xing Qing have a good chance of winning?"

Looking at Yun Hao beside her, Ah Yun softly asked.

"How would I know? I can't predict the future!"

Yun Hao gave Ah Yun a blank look, and his large hand ruffled her head.

"Master, you are biased!"

Ah Yun pouted adorably, stamping her feet as she looked at Yun Hao in front of her.

"What? How am I biased?"

Yun Hao wrapped an arm around Ah Yun's slender waist and asked, puzzled.

"Xing Qing's cultivation technique is so much better than mine. I also want to cultivate high-level techniques, otherwise I'm afraid I can't even fight Xing Qing anymore!"

Ah Yun's beautiful eyes sparkled as she softly spoke, her small mouth pouted high, coquettishly pleading.

"If I spanked your cheeky bottom now, would they still be afraid of you as the Deputy Sect Leader?"

Yun Hao's mouth suddenly turned up in a naughty smile, and the arm around the other's slender waist began sliding downward mischievously.

"Master..."

A blush crept up Ah Yun's face.

"Stop being so naughty, after dealing with the Moon Gazing Sect today, I'll teach you an even more powerful cultivation technique, certainly better than Xing Qing's! But it will cost you something, though!"

Yun Hao said with a mischievous grin.

Ah Yun's face turned a deep red as she looked at Yun Hao beside her, almost bleeding embarrassment from her cheeks.

Being teased by Yun Hao like this in front of so many people was truly mortifying!

Meanwhile, Xing Qing and Li Yang were battling fiercely, the fight reaching a fever pitch.

Yet, Xing Qing was clearly at a disadvantage, showing some passivity against Li Yang's fierce attacks!

"Master, Xing Qing is at a disadvantage now, should I step in to help? I'm confident I can handle Li Yang!"

Although Ah Yun was currently only in the early stage of the Ninth Grade, still significantly different from Li Yang's peak of the Ninth Grade,

she was absolutely confident in defeating or even killing Li Yang!

Aside from her incredibly rich combat experience, the cultivation technique she practiced was very formidable!

"No need, Xing Qing can win, I can't stay in this Upper Realm forever, nor can you, Xing Qing must learn to stand on her own!"

Yun Hao shook his head, speaking to Ah Yun beside him.

Moreover, since Xing Qing was eager to fight, to duel with Li Yang, she should be allowed to battle to the last.

"Alright then!"

Ah Yun nodded, having no objection to Yun Hao's decision.

After all, she knew one thing for sure, Yun Hao would never just watch Xing Qing be in danger and do nothing!
