Chapter 733: Evenly Matched?



Chapter 733: Evenly Matched?

“Many thanks to my lord for upholding justice and saving us. I thank my lord on behalf of the young lady and young master.”

The seriously injured Barbaric Peak Great Emperor was about to kneel down as he spoke. His life was saved by the Clan Head, since Li Fuchen saved the young lady and young master, he would be willing to die, let alone kneeling down.

Li Fuchen waved his left hand and a qi force supported the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor up.

“It is just a small matter.” Li Fuchen said.

He didn’t wish to meddle in such affairs, but the Black Snake Great Emperor was too arrogant.

“Where are you going? If it isn’t too far off, I can escort you.”

Since Li Fuchen already made the move, he was going to see it through.

The Barbaric Peak Great Emperor hesitated for a moment and said, “My lord, please send the young lady and young master to River Province’s Tong Clan. Their paternal aunt is there. This is a communication token. Once you are nearby the Tong Clan, you can send her a message. My brothers and I will attract the Wu Clan’s attention.”

The Wu Clan was too powerful. For the sake of the young lady and young master, and also not to implicate Li Fuchen, the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor had to sacrifice himself.

Li Fuchen said, “There is no need for such trouble, come together.”

The Wu Clan wasn’t a saint clan, Li Fuchen didn’t need to fear them.

“My lord, you don’t know the Wu Clan well enough. They are once a saint clan. They might not have any saints now, but the things that the saints left behind is no small matter. Take the Heaven and Earth Battle Formation earlier, if it is formed by 108 high-level emperors, even a top 1000 great emperor on the Great Emperor Rankings couldn’t do anything. Apart from that, the Wu Clan still has heaven class high-tier cardinal artifacts, weapons, armors, and many others. Most importantly, the Wu Clan has three members ranked in the top 1000 of the Great Emperor Rankings. One of them is even ranked top 100.”

The Barbaric Peak Great Emperor made it very clear that those that weren’t top 100 in the Great Emperor Rankings wouldn’t be qualified to contest with the Wu Clan.

Li Fuchen laughed. “How much do you know about me then? Let’s go. Since I dare to escort, I naturally know what I am doing.”

“My lord!”

The Barbaric Peak Great Emperor looked at Li Fuchen with shock. How could he not know that Li Fuchen’s strength was way beyond what he imagined.

Ultimately, the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor still decided to travel along with Li Fuchen to the River Province’s Tong Clan.

Along the way, the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor explained to Li Fuchen about the exact situation.

As an ancient clan, the Wu Clan’s resources were boundless. If one could become the Clan Head, their lineage would receive the nurture and be able to develop, allowing them to have the chance to become a saint. However, for ancient clans, the clan hierarchy was very stringent. It was rare for any internal conflicts to happen, provided that the Clan Head wasn’t missing.

A few centuries ago, the young lady and young master’s paternal grandfather, who was the Wu Clan Head had left. He said he was out to seek for fated opportunities. However, there had been no news since then. The entire Wu Clan assumed that the Clan Head had already fallen outside, otherwise, they would have been some news.

With the missing Clan Head, some of the Wu clansmen started to covet for the position of Clan Head. Among them, Wu Chengkang’s lineage was the strongest lineage apart from the Clan Head’s lineage. Over a dozen days ago, Wu Chengkang started an internal conflict. He killed and imprisoned the members of the Clan Head’s lineage, and had controlled the entire Wu Clan. As the direct descendants of the Clan Head, the young lady and young master became a thorn in Wu Chengkang’s eyes. It was fortunate that the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor noticed something wrong and left with the young lady and young master.

“What about their parents?” Li Fuchen asked.

The Barbaric Peak Great Emperor laughed bitterly and said, “The young lady and young master’s parents had been killed by enemies a few years ago. Otherwise, Wu Chengkang wouldn’t become the Wu Clan Head so easily.”

Li Fuchen didn’t say anything. The siblings were truly too unfortunate. Their paternal grandfather was missing, their parents killed. Right now, they were stranded outside and being pursued by the Wu Clan.

The Saint Spirit Continent was too big. According to the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor, it was at least a few tens of billions of miles. A high-grade silver airship could only travel a few hundred thousand miles in a day. One year would only travel over 200 million miles. In order to travel across the entire Saint Spirit Continent, it would take at least 200 years with a high-grade silver airship.

It was fortunate that the River Province’s Tong Clan was only a few dozen million miles away and wasn’t considered too far.

On the Saint Spirit Continent, one could cultivate from the age of five. The Wu Clan’s young lady was Wu Xi, 12 years old and at 1st level Reincarnation Realm. Wu Zhuo had astonishing talent as he was already at the peak level of Heaven Dipper Realm at the age of 7.

On this day, Li Fuchen was watching as Wu Zhuo cultivated and saw the sword dao law automatically gathering around him. The sword dao energy was actually converging towards him.

“Barbaric Peak Great Emperor, this is?” Li Fuchen guessed something in his mind.

The Barbaric Peak Great Emperor let out a bitter smile before saying proudly. “That’s right, the young master has the 9-star sword dao bone frame. Since the Wu Clan existed, he is the second individual with a 9-star bone frame. It is also why Wu Chengkang wishes to exterminate the young master.”

“I see.” Li Fuchen was enlightened.

A 9-star bone frame was too terrifying and it was impossible for Wu Chengkang to allow a 9-star bone frame to grow.

On the Emperor Sky Continent, an 8-star bone frame prodigy would be able to progress to the Law Phase Realm in just over a century. On the Saint Spirit Continent, an 8-star bone frame prodigy would probably progress to the Law Phase Realm at the age of 50 to 70.

If it was a 9-star bone frame prodigy, it would be normal to progress to the Law Phase Realm at the age of 20 to 30.

If Wu Zhuo was given 50 years, he would definitely become a huge problem for Wu Chengkang.

“I didn’t think that I would encounter a 9-star bone frame so quickly after arriving at the Saint Spirit Continent.” Li Fuchen lamented.

Only high-class continents could produce 9-star bone frames. A 9-star bone frame could basically be considered as a future saint. Without any accidents, they would normally become saints in the future.

Half a month later, the group arrived at the territory of the River Province.

The River Province was famed for the Azure River. This Azure River was severed by none other than the Sword Sovereign’s slash. However, the Sword Sovereign only severed a narrow part of the tributary. That part was only a few hundred miles in width. Even if the Sword Sovereign progressed into a saint, he wouldn’t be able to sever the real Azure River.

On the second day the group entered the River Province, a golden airship caught up.

“Peak-grade silver airship...” Li Fuchen raised his brows.

Beyond the high-grade silver airship was the peak-grade silver airship.

Peak-grade silver airships were constructed with the most refined Flying Silver Iron. The speed was several times faster than a high-grade silver airship, while the price was ten times higher.

However, a peak-grade silver airship wasn’t something that could be bought just like that. Without a certain reputation, it was impossible to buy one.

The golden airship obstructed Li Fuchen’s group. When the cabin door was opened, a group of individuals walked out.

The leader was a person with a cold expression and he was covered in strands of sword qi. It felt as though he was covered in autumn rain.

This was a fearsome sword dao great emperor and was more than ten times stronger than the Red Star Joss Chief.

Li Fuchen’s expression turned a little serious.

His body refinement strength might allow him to ignore anyone below saints. However, when facing a sword dao great emperor, Li Fuchen didn’t wish to use his body refinement strength as it would be to blaspheme his sword dao.

“Sword Rain Great Emperor!”

The Barbaric Peak Great Emperor and the others swallowed their saliva and were rather nervous.

The Sword Rain Great Emperor was ranked 283rd on the Great Emperor Rankings and was the Wu Clan’s second strongest expert.

Due to his fame, the Sword Rain Great Emperor brought upon immense pressure.

With the title of Sword Rain, it meant that his sword art was like the rain, concentrated and left nowhere to hide.

“Barbaric Peak Great Emperor, I don’t wish to use my sword. Bring the young lady and young master back.” The Sword Rain Great Emperor said indifferently.

Taking a deep breath, the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor said in a deep voice, “Sword Rain Great Emperor, the young lady and young master are the Clan Head’s grandchildren. Are you going to watch as Wu Chengkang kills them?”

“I only listen to the Clan Head, right now, the Clan Head is Wu Chengkang.” The Sword Rain Great Emperor shook his head.

“How can Wu Chengkang be considered a Clan Head? Once the Clan Head returns, I will see how you are going to explain.” The Barbaric Peak Great Emperor gritted his teeth.

“Do you still not understand? Even if the previous Clan Head returns, nothing will change. The Wu Clan isn’t going to be toppled by a great emperor. Unless the previous Clan Head can progress into a saint.” The Sword Rain Great Emperor felt he understood better than the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor.

“Alright, I don’t wish to waste time. You have two choices, life or death!”

The Sword Rain Great Emperor never paid attention to Li Fuchen from the start. Even if he knew that Li Fuchen was powerful and not a regular great emperor, he was confident he was stronger.

“I shall decide for him.” Li Fuchen flew out from the silver airship.

“I nearly forgot about you. Once I settle you, he should have an easier choice.

The Sword Rain Great Emperor’s eyes turned icy cold and it was unknown when a white longsword appeared on his hand and the sword was slowly being unsheathed.

Clang!

Rain suddenly descended and it was a heavy rain.

Taking a careful look, it wasn’t the rain as it was obviously sword lights.

Each sword light was exaggeratedly thin, even finer than silk.

It contained extreme soft water sword dao law.

Tss Tss Tss Tss...

Sword light drew across the void and let out the sound of silk being spat out.

“Such power. So this is the strength of a person who is ranked 283rd on the Great Emperor Rankings?” Li Fuchen felt excited.

It was excitement from encountering a foe and excitement that he was going to test his own sword dao strength.

If the Sword Rain Great Emperor’s sword was concentrated and covered everywhere, then Li Fuchen’s sword was watertight.

The two had similar meaning, but two totally different sword dao styles could be distinguished from the duo.

“Mm!?”

Seeing his sword getting completely blocked, the Sword Rain Great Emperor’s expression changed.

He no longer looked at Li Fuchen with contempt. He now had battle intent and a desire towards a higher level of sword dao.

The duo’s swords were so fast that the others couldn’t keep up with the pace.

In the void, sword lights clashed, flickered, and burst. The intense murderous intent was enough for people like the Red Star Joss Chief to lose any will to fight, let alone the Barbaric Peak Great Emperor.

“Very good. You are at least top 20 or even top 15 among all the swordsmen I have encountered. If you can receive this Bleak Wind Icy Rain, I can spare your life.”

The Sword Rain Great Emperor’s sword stance changed. An extremely cold and bleak intent pierced through, allowing the sword move to be refined. It felt as though the entire place was getting frozen.

“Not good.”

Li Fuchen realized that apart from the Void Heaven Sword World, he didn’t have other sword moves to block his foe’s sword move.

Li Fuchen originally wanted to test his sword dao, but he couldn’t do so anymore. He instantly executed the Void Heaven Sword World, causing blinding sword lights to burst out.

Clash Bang!

It was hard to describe what happened between the two. It was obvious that their swords didn’t clash, but there were countless clashing swords coming from the void. It felt as though there were countless people battling in another world.
