Ye Xuan was speechless. Ever since the little pagoda was modified by Qing’er, it had become insufferably arrogant!
At that moment, Mo Wuxian suddenly spoke, “Who are you?”
The swordsman turned to look at Mo Wuxian and smiled faintly, “You speak of being invincible?”
Mo Wuxian stared at the swordsman, “Is there a problem?”
The swordsman nodded, “Yes, there is!”
Mo Wuxian narrowed his eyes, “Swordsman, you are indeed not ordinary, but you…”
The swordsman suddenly interrupted Mo Wuxian, “No need for further words. Take my sword strike!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he drew his sword and slashed.
Simple and direct!
Seeing this sword strike, Mo Wuxian’s pupils constricted sharply. At this moment, he felt danger!
How could this person’s mental power be so strong?
This thought flashed through his mind, but before he could ponder it further, he took a step forward and punched down. The moment his fist struck, the first to fourth layers of spacetime suddenly overlapped, forming an incredibly terrifying spatial pressure.
However, as the swordsman’s sword strike descended, that immense spatial pressure shattered instantly.
Swoosh!
Under the gaze of everyone, a sword pierced directly into Mo Wuxian’s brow.
Boom!
Mo Wuxian’s physical body instantly disintegrated, and his soul was tightly locked by the sword!
Defeated?
At this moment, everyone’s minds went blank.
Had Mo Wuxian’s ancestor just been cut down by a single sword strike?
Beside Ye Xuan, Jun Di swallowed hard and then said, “Big brother, is this swordsman your big brother?”
Ye Xuan nodded.
Jun Di immediately said, “If he’s your big brother, then he’s my big brother too!”
Ye Xuan: “…”
The swordsman glanced at the bewildered Mo Wuxian, shook his head, and a hint of disappointment flashed in his eyes, “In your next life, don’t speak so lightly of being invincible.”
Mo Wuxian stared at the swordsman, his eyes filled with disbelief, “You… how can a human be so strong!”
The swordsman didn’t answer Mo Wuxian. He turned to Ye Xuan, “Little guy, I must go now.”
Ye Xuan quickly asked, “Big brother, where are you going?”
The swordsman smiled, “Wherever there is danger, that’s where I’ll go.”
Ye Xuan: “…”
At that moment, Mo Wuxian suddenly roared, “You are beings I created! How can you be stronger than me! This is impossible!”
The swordsman looked at Mo Wuxian, somewhat puzzled, “Isn’t being defeated a good thing? Do you know how much I wish to be defeated? The taste of invincibility is truly lonely. Do you understand?”
Mo Wuxian: “…”
Everyone: “…”
The swordsman looked at Ye Xuan, “Little guy, don’t be afraid of failure. Losing once means you can improve!”
Ye Xuan hesitated for a moment, then said, “Losing once or twice is fine, but being defeated often isn’t so good!”
The swordsman laughed, “Indeed! However, the feeling of invincibility is truly lonely and isolating. You…”
Ye Xuan said, “Actually, I really want to experience that kind of loneliness and isolation!”
The swordsman was momentarily stunned, then smiled, “Then you must work hard!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Big brother, could you do me a small favor?”
The swordsman nodded, “Speak.”
Ye Xuan glanced at the City Lord of Huangcheng and Jun Di in the distance, “Big brother, these two friends of mine have reached their limits. Could you perhaps give them some guidance?”
Hearing this, the City Lord of Huangcheng and Jun Di were instantly excited.
Damn it!
Selling their lives wasn’t in vain!
The swordsman looked at the two of them, then shook his head, “I cannot guide them.”
Ye Xuan was puzzled, “Why not?”
The swordsman glanced at the sword in his hand, “I only cultivate the sword, nothing else.”
Ye Xuan frowned, “Only the sword?”
The swordsman nodded, “Yes.”
Ye Xuan said seriously, “Big brother, do you know about the fifth layer of spacetime?”
The swordsman shook his head, “No.”
Ye Xuan was stunned.
He didn’t know?
Ye Xuan was shocked, “Big brother, you don’t understand anything besides the sword?”
The swordsman smiled, “Yes.”
Ye Xuan fell silent.
A swordsman!
This big brother was a pure swordsman!
Someone who had cultivated the sword to its extreme!
Hearing the swordsman’s words, the City Lord of Huangcheng and Jun Di were somewhat disappointed. This swordsman was incredibly powerful! But unfortunately, he only cultivated the sword, and since they weren’t swordsmen, he couldn’t guide them!
At that moment, the swordsman added, “As far as I know, Tianming seems to be skilled in these areas. You can ask her to guide your friends in the future.”
Ye Xuan smiled wryly, “That seems to be the only way.”
The swordsman nodded slightly, “They are waiting for me. I must go.”
Ye Xuan quickly asked, “Qing’er and my father?”
The swordsman smiled, “Yes.”
Ye Xuan frowned, “Are you guys teaming up?”
The swordsman said, “Not exactly. We’re just traveling together for a while, exchanging ideas and insights. You understand.”
Ye Xuan’s expression turned serious, “You guys won’t end up fighting, will you?”
The swordsman thought for a moment, then said, “Probably not. For now, none of us can kill the others.”
Hearing this, Ye Xuan felt a wave of relief.
Just as the swordsman was about to speak, Mo Wuxian, who was nearby, suddenly snarled, “Human!”
The swordsman looked at Mo Wuxian, who seemed somewhat crazed, “Do you think you’ve won for sure?”
The swordsman looked pleased, “Do you have some other trump card? Come on, show it!”
Mo Wuxian opened his right hand, revealing a small token. The token slowly rose and transformed into a flame, disappearing into the depths of the starry sky.
Seeing this, Ye Xuan was puzzled, “You’re not going to summon your ancestors too, are you?”
Mo Wuxian coldly glanced at Ye Xuan, “Ignorant ant, you…”
The swordsman suddenly swung his sword.
Slap!
A sword light struck Mo Wuxian’s soul, causing it to tremble violently and become faint!
The swordsman looked at Mo Wuxian, “Speak respectfully to my little brother.”
Mo Wuxian: “…”
At that moment, the distant starry sky began to tremble violently. Soon after, a massive starship appeared above everyone’s heads. On the starship stood a group of strange-looking beings. These beings resembled skeletons, tall in stature, with strange runic lights swirling around them, making them appear extremely bizarre.
Ye Xuan frowned. What kind of beings were these?
Just then, the City Lord of Huangcheng, who was nearby, suddenly exclaimed in horror, “They are the Yiling Clan!”
The Yiling Clan!
Hearing this, Jun Di’s expression also changed drastically!
Ye Xuan looked at the two of them, “What is the Yiling Clan?”
The City Lord of Huangcheng’s face turned pale, “Young friend, you may not know, but the Yiling Clan was once a part of this endless universe, belonging to a third-level civilization. However, they eventually surpassed the limits of their race, reaching a fourth-level civilization, and then left this endless universe!”
Fourth-level civilization!
Ye Xuan fell silent. He knew that the Shenren Clan was a third-level civilization, and in this endless universe, there were no fourth-level civilizations.
In the distance, Mo Wuxian bowed respectfully to the Yiling Clan experts and began speaking in a strange, incomprehensible language.
No one could understand it, not even the Shenren Clan members!
However, Mo Wuxian grew more and more agitated as he spoke, occasionally pointing at the swordsman.
At that moment, one of the Yiling Clan beings on the starship turned his gaze to the swordsman. After observing him for a moment, he bowed slightly and then extended his hand, releasing a glowing orb that floated toward the swordsman. At the same time, the Yiling Clan being placed his right hand over his chest and bowed again.
Seeing this, everyone was stunned!
Mo Wuxian himself was stunned!
At this moment, his entire soul was trembling!
Others might not understand the Yiling Clan’s intentions, but he did!
The Yiling Clan only respected powerful beings, and by offering the orb to the swordsman, they were showing goodwill!
Why did the Yiling Clan do this?
There was only one explanation: the swordsman before them made these Yiling Clan members feel threatened!
It’s over!
This was the thought that flashed through Mo Wuxian’s mind.
The swordsman glanced at the orb before him, frowned, and then looked at the leading Yiling Clan member, “No fight?”
The leading Yiling Clan member immediately shook his head. He bowed again and took out another orb, which floated toward the swordsman.
Beside Ye Xuan, Jun Di whispered, “As expected of a high-level civilization, their intelligence is truly high…”
At that moment, Ye Xuan walked up to the swordsman. He glanced at the two orbs and said, “Big brother, do you want them?”
The swordsman looked at Ye Xuan, “Do you want them?”
Ye Xuan’s face reddened slightly but quickly returned to normal. He took the two orbs in his hand, “I’m just a bit curious!”
The swordsman laughed heartily, “If you like them, they’re yours!”
Ye Xuan quickly said, “How could I possibly accept?”
Despite his words, he had already stored the two orbs away!
Everyone: “…”
After putting away the orbs, Ye Xuan walked up to the starship. At this moment, the Yiling Clan members were all looking at him.
Ye Xuan pointed at the swordsman below, “That’s my big brother.”
The leading Yiling Clan member hesitated for a moment, then took out another orb and handed it to Ye Xuan. At the same time, a voice echoed in Ye Xuan’s mind, “Sir, please convey to your big brother that the Yiling Clan has no intention of being his enemy.”
Ye Xuan looked at the Yiling Clan member, “Is my big brother strong?”
The leading Yiling Clan member glanced at Ye Xuan, “Can’t you feel it?”
Ye Xuan was silent for a moment, then asked, “How strong is he?”
The Yiling Clan member paused, then said, “Impossible to estimate!”
Impossible to estimate!
Ye Xuan was silent for a moment, then added, “My big brother also has no intention of being enemies with the Yiling Clan. In fact, he is willing to befriend your clan!”
Hearing this, the leading Yiling Clan member seemed pleased, “Really?”
Ye Xuan nodded, “He said that the Yiling Clan is a very powerful race and asked me to befriend you all. However… I wonder if you have the sincerity for it.”
The Yiling Clan member glanced at the swordsman, then at Ye Xuan.
Damn it!
This human is trying to trick me!
The Yiling Clan member was silent for a moment, then took out a token and handed it to Ye Xuan, “Human sir, this is the Yiling Token. With this, you may visit the Yiling Clan at any time. I…”
Ye Xuan suddenly shook his head, “No, no! I don’t want it! If you’re giving it, give it to my big brother…”
The Yiling Clan member’s expression froze.
Giving this human a Yiling Token would have been sufficient!
But giving it to the swordsman… a Yiling Token? How could something so trivial be offered?
He hesitated for a moment, then said, “Sir, please wait a moment. I need to consult with the clan leader!”
If they were to give something to the swordsman, a Yiling Token would be far too insignificant. Higher-level treatment was required, and he couldn’t make that decision. He needed to consult the clan leader!
Ye Xuan smiled, “It’s fine, we can wait.”
The Yiling Clan member: “…”
