Destiny-Knowing Realm?
As soon as Ye Xuan uttered these words, the hidden powerhouses were dumbfounded.
What kind of existence was the Destiny-Knowing Realm?
It was the pinnacle of strength in this world!
Moreover, these Destiny-Knowing Realm experts were extremely rare to encounter, even in the Heavenly Extreme Realm, because those in the Heavenly Extreme Realm were all striving to reach that level!
And now, a Destiny-Knowing Realm expert had appeared here?
But wasn’t this guy just at the Seamless Path level?
Could he be playing the pig to eat the tiger?
Across from Ye Xuan, the female sword cultivator’s face turned utterly grim, had she really encountered a Destiny-Knowing Realm expert?
At that moment, Ye Xuan suddenly opened his palm, revealing a portrait—it was Sister Xue’s portrait.
Ye Xuan looked at the woman, “Do you recognize this person?”
The woman glanced at the portrait, hesitated, then said, “Senior, are you here for her?”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Yes!”
The woman said in a low voice, “This woman has fled to the Dark Forest!”
The Dark Forest?
Ye Xuan frowned slightly, “Where is the Dark Forest?”
The woman pointed into the distance, “A thousand miles outside the city!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Got it!”
With that, he turned to leave.
Just then, the woman suddenly asked, “You’re not going to kill me?”
Ye Xuan turned his head to glance at her, “I never kill women!”
With that, he turned and walked away with a dashing flair.
The woman looked at Ye Xuan, breathing a sigh of relief.
But then, Ye Xuan suddenly stopped in the distance, and the woman’s expression shifted, was he going back on his word?
Ye Xuan turned to her, “I’m unfamiliar with this place, come with me, I’ll guide you in the way of the sword!”
The woman looked at Ye Xuan, hesitated, then said, “Senior…”
Ye Xuan frowned slightly, “What, unwilling?”
The woman quickly replied, “Willing!”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Follow me then!”
The woman glanced at Ye Xuan and followed.
Along the way, she didn’t dare speak!
Those two sword strikes earlier had left a shadow in her mind!
In the shadows around them, some powerhouses didn’t dare follow Ye Xuan anymore, whether this young man was truly Destiny-Knowing or not, he was definitely beyond their ability to provoke!
Not long after, Ye Xuan suddenly stopped, ahead of him stood a man with a blade, beside him a blood-soaked corpse, its throat still bleeding—clearly a fresh kill!
At that moment, the man turned to look at Ye Xuan and the woman, frowning when he saw Ye Xuan, “Seamless Path?”
He smirked, his smile eerie.
Ye Xuan smiled back, turning to the woman, “Kill him!”
The woman was stunned.
You’re not killing him, but you want me to?
Ye Xuan looked at her, “What, is there a problem?”
The woman hesitated, then said, “Alright!”
With that, she vanished, a flash of sword light streaking across the scene.
In the distance, the man frowned, “Xu Wu, what’s wrong with you?”
As he spoke, he slashed with his blade.
*Boom!*
A burst of sword light and blade light erupted, both retreating simultaneously.
The woman named Xu Wu was about to strike again when Ye Xuan suddenly said, “Here, try the sword I forged!”
With that, he opened his palm, and the Qingxuan Sword flew to Xu Wu.
Xu Wu glanced at Ye Xuan, gripped the Qingxuan Sword, and without overthinking, vanished again!
In the distance, the man’s eyes flashed with ferocity, “Have you gone mad?”
He slashed down.
*Boom!*
The blade light shattered, the man stumbled back, his body breaking apart mid-retreat, not just his flesh but his soul too, turning translucent in an instant!
Xu Wu was stunned!
Realizing something, she looked down at the Qingxuan Sword in her hand, disbelief written across her face, “This…”
She’d just killed him露露 him with one strike?
This man’s strength was on par with hers, they’d sparred before, neither able to overpower the other, yet now she’d ended him in one blow!
It was the sword!
Xu Wu stared at the blade, her heart trembling, her fear of Ye Xuan deepening.
In the distance, the man was equally dumbfounded, staring at Xu Wu, “You…”
Xu Wu said nothing, walking back to Ye Xuan and handing the sword back, “Senior…”
Ye Xuan took the Qingxuan Sword, glanced at the man, “Whatever’s on him is yours!”
With that, he walked off.
Xu Wu hesitated, then followed.
The fading man suddenly asked, “Who is he?!”
Xu Wu glanced at him, “This senior is Destiny-Knowing, you idiot!”
With that, she hurried after Ye Xuan.
Destiny-Knowing Realm!
The man froze, he’d just tried to attack a Destiny-Knowing bigshot?
Soon, he vanished completely.
In the shadows, Xiong Ni remained silent.
That sword was terrifying!
Especially in the hands of a sword cultivator like Xu Wu, the boost to her combat power was beyond imagination.
Xiong Ni felt a bit annoyed, this wasn’t how she’d pictured things, she’d thought this guy wouldn’t last a quarter-hour here after she left, then beg her for help!
She hadn’t expected him to pass himself off as a Destiny-Knowing expert! And even snag a bodyguard!
Most importantly, that female sword cultivator actually believed he was Destiny-Knowing!
This world was insane!
Moments later, Xiong Ni glanced into the distance, muttering, “Let’s see how long you can keep this up!”
…
In the distance, Xu Wu caught up to Ye Xuan, her respect for him growing!
This was a real bigshot!
With that sword from earlier, she felt she could even take down a Primordial Spirit Realm expert!
Then Ye Xuan suddenly asked, “Miss Xu Wu, why are the people here hunting the one I’m looking for?”
Xu Wu blinked, then said, “Senior, you don’t know?”
Ye Xuan shook his head.
Xu Wu said gravely, “I thought you were after the Heavenly Extreme Crystal Mine in her possession too!”
Ye Xuan frowned, “Heavenly Extreme Crystal Mine?”
Xu Wu nodded, “A mine appeared in the Heavenly Extreme Mountain Range, fought over by many, but it ended up in that girl’s hands! Naturally, they wouldn’t let it go, so they teamed up against her, and she had no choice but to flee to the Dark Forest!”
Ye Xuan asked gravely, “Is the Dark Forest dangerous?”
Xu Wu glanced at him, “To you, Senior, it’s naturally not, but to us, it’s far more than just dangerous.”
She hesitated, then asked, “Senior, are you here to help that girl?”
Ye Xuan smiled, “We’ll see!”
With that, he turned and walked off.
Behind him, Xu Wu glanced at Ye Xuan again, then quickly followed.
Along the way, no one dared trouble Ye Xuan again, clearly, the man’s death had deterred the hidden powerhouses.
Ye Xuan grew bolder with each step, he had to be bold now.
This act had to be perfect, or he’d look like a fool!
In the shadows, more figures appeared, but none dared approach or scan Ye Xuan with their divine senses, clearly wary of him.
Destiny-Knowing Realm!
Who wouldn’t be nervous?
Ye Xuan glanced around, a faint smile on his face, utterly composed.
Behind him, Xu Wu followed slowly, her demeanor respectful.
As they neared the city gate, Ye Xuan stopped, there stood an old man in a black robe, hands tucked in his sleeves, his face cold.
Beside Ye Xuan, Xu Wu said gravely, “Elder Xuanji, a bigshot in the city! Primordial Spirit Realm!”
A bigshot?
Ye Xuan smiled, looking at Elder Xuanji, “Something on your mind?”
Elder Xuanji stared at Ye Xuan, “Are you Destiny-Knowing?”
Ye Xuan countered, “Do you have a problem with that?”
His tone turned sharp.
Elder Xuanji said, “I wouldn’t dare! I…”
Before he could finish, Ye Xuan began walking toward him, slowly, calmly, like a leisurely stroll.
Seeing this, Elder Xuanji’s eyes narrowed, his hidden hands clenching slightly!
He was tense!
At ten zhang (about 33 meters) from Elder Xuanji, the old man stepped forward, and instantly, Ye Xuan plunged into an eleven-layer spacetime abyss, countless mysterious spacetime forces surging toward him!
Yet Ye Xuan didn’t flinch, letting those forces rush at him.
Soon, Elder Xuanji’s expression changed.
He realized Ye Xuan, in the spacetime abyss, was unscathed, the mysterious forces didn’t harm him at all!
Seeing this, the hidden powerhouses’ faces shifted!
This was a true bigshot!
Elder Xuanji’s face grew grim, a hint of panic setting in!
Ye Xuan reached him, not attacking, but opening his palm and gently pulling, instantly enveloping Elder Xuanji in a mysterious spacetime!
Caught in it, Elder Xuanji’s pupils shrank, “This… this is…”
Ye Xuan’s lips curled in disdain, “Playing with spacetime before me? Are you joking?”
Elder Xuanji immediately bowed respectfully, “Senior, forgive my offense!”
Ye Xuan sneered, then walked toward the city’s outskirts.
Xu Wu hurriedly followed.
Seeing Ye Xuan didn’t strike, Elder Xuanji exhaled heavily, wiping cold sweat from his brow!
That was close!
In the shadows, Xiong Ni rubbed her temples!
This old man was a Primordial Spirit Realm expert, how could he be so spineless?
Fight him!
She knew Ye Xuan could ignore spacetime because of that sword, not his own power! And that mysterious spacetime? He couldn’t fully control it!
Ye Xuan was a paper tiger.
One punch from the old man, and he’d be exposed.
But the old man was spooked!
Xiong Ni shook her head, she hadn’t expected this guy to survive here by bluffing…
…
Outside the city, Xu Wu suddenly asked, “Senior, why didn’t you kill him?”
Ye Xuan smiled faintly, “Would you bother stepping on an ant?”
Xu Wu blinked, then shook her head.
Ye Xuan laughed, “Everything in this world is like ants to me, if I wanted to wipe them out, one sword could erase the heavens!”
He looked at Xu Wu, smiling, “In a million years, I’ve barely made a move, do you know why?”
Xu Wu shook her head.
Ye Xuan grinned, “I don’t act often, but when I do, it’s not just one or two deaths, I fear one move from me would erase an entire universe!”
Xu Wu: “…”
