Nine Revolutions Star Technique

Chapter 12: Chapter 12: If You Refuse to Yield, Fight Again

”How is this possible?”

Everyone stared dumbfoundedly ahead.

As for the Cyan Cloud City’s high-ranking members, after their astonishment, they turned their gaze with extreme mockery towards the bewildered Ye Family elders. It should be known that in order to seize power, these elders had pinned all their hopes on Ye Wushuang!

But now.

Ye Wushuang was dead!

The elders of the Ye Family clearly realized this point too, feeling as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over their heads, chilling them to the core.

Ye Cangliu slumped into his chair, his whole body feeling as if his bones had been extracted.

The entire scene was deathly silent.

Laughter echoed, continuously reverberating.

Wu Shanhe’s face turned ashen.

Keep in mind!

He had come this time to back Ye Wushuang, and more importantly, to witness him ascend to the position of Young Clan Leader of Cyan Cloud City! Unfortunately, the gap was too wide. His favored disciple was killed in three moves right under everyone’s eyes.

This was nothing short of a slap in the face!

”Mo Chen!”

At this thought, Wu Shanhe shouted angrily, ”Eliminate this boy for me!”

Whoosh!

Before anyone could react.

They saw Mo Chen, cloaked in black, standing behind Wu Shanhe, his eyes suddenly gleaming with a cold light.

With a forceful stomp, he soared into the air. In an instant, like a sprinting leopard, a howling storm, a streak of lightning, he descended abruptly in front of Ye Qingchen!

”Boom!”

With a loud crash, accompanied by dust flying everywhere, the entire Hong Mansion seemed to tremble.

The bewildered crowd snapped back to attention and glanced forward once more.

They saw.

Amid the dust, a figure slowly appeared, like an eternal statue. From under his feet, cracks spread outwards like a spider’s web.

This severe landing nearly shattered the ground within a three-zhang radius!

Under the terrified gaze of the crowd.

This figure slowly raised the long sword in his hand, directly charging towards Ye Qingchen.

”Mo Chen of the Celestial Essence Sword Sect!”

”Here to learn from you!”

As his words fell.

Immediately, a robust aura spread from Mo Chen’s body. Like a volcanic eruption, like an overflowing tide. The crowd felt as if an invisible mountain suddenly crashed down, leaving them almost unable to breathe.

This aura was even stronger than Ye Wushuang’s before!

Qi Refining Twelfth Layer!

Martial Arts Grandmaster!

In an instant, Ye Qingchen found himself in peril.

”Terrifying!”

As Mo Chen’s aura was revealed, everyone was deeply shocked.

Ye Wushuang’s Qi Refining Tenth Layer was enough to astonish.

Now this Mo Chen had actually reached the Qi Refining Twelfth Layer!

His strength compared to Ye Wushuang was several times more terrifying!

And they never expected that after Ye Wushuang’s death, Wu Shanhe would go berserk and immediately send a disciple to kill Ye Qingchen! On the other hand, Cyan Cloud City’s many celebrities and high officials, upon seeing this scene, had an even more mocking look in their eyes!

The situation evolved into this was beyond their wildest expectations.

”This life-and-death battle is indeed unexpected,” Zhao Jiuling could hardly contain his inner joy, ”Today’s battle causes two geniuses of the Ye Family to perish, leaving no chance for resurgence in the future!”

The others nodded repeatedly in agreement.

Without a doubt, both Ye Qingchen and Ye Wushuang were undisputed geniuses.

If any one of them triumphed, they would lead the Ye Family to glory.

But if both were to fall, the Ye Family’s path to rise would be completely cut off!

This was simply a great fortune for them!

How could the elders of the Ye Family not know?

But remembering their past deeds towards Ye Qingchen and seeing the strength Ye Qingchen displayed today, even if the Ye Family were to decline, they were unwilling to see Ye Qingchen regain power!

”Yes, a life for a life!” Ye Cangliu snapped back to reality, suddenly stood up, and shouted harshly, ”Ye Qingchen has committed countless atrocities, murdered his kin, utterly unforgivable, he must pay with his life!”

”Yes, Ye Qingchen killed Ye Wushuang, he must pay with his life!”

”Blood for blood!”

The other elders rose one after another in support.

”Kill!”

Mo Chen roared, and the long sword in his hand transformed into a specter, darting out instantly.

Clang!

It was still the ’Celestial Star Sword Technique’.

However, the move he executed was countless times more powerful than Ye Wushuang’s!

In an instant, above the arena, Mo Chen’s figure remained unchanged, while the sky was filled with sword light, covering the heavens like falling stars, without the slightest warning, it engulfed Ye Qingchen!

”A life for a life indeed!”

Listening to the shouts around him, Ye Qingchen felt an overwhelming anger.

The shamelessness of these people surpassed his imagination! But he did not argue, instead maintaining a resolute expression as he slashed a sword, meeting Mo Chen’s attack head-on.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

Sword tips collided, sparks flying!

In the eyes of others, the ’Celestial Star Sword Technique’, which was unavoidable and inescapable, was forcibly intercepted by Ye Qingchen.

”Ye Wushuang was the disciple of my master; how can you, an ant, compare to him?” As if guessing Ye Qingchen’s thoughts, Mo Chen showed a mocking smile, ”Even if you were killed, it would be well-deserved!”

As he finished speaking, the smile on his face suddenly vanished, and his wrist shook.

Swish!

At that moment, the sky full of sword light suddenly retracted, as if stars falling, all converging onto Mo Chen’s long sword, becoming dazzlingly bright. When swung by Mo Chen, it was as effortless as lifting a heavy weight, seemingly possessing the power to cut mountains and rivers!

”What kind of swordsmanship is this?”

A chorus of exclamations erupted all around, evidently shaken by the scene.

Wu Shanhe stroked his long beard, showing an air of pride: ”This is the essence of the Celestial Star Sword Technique! Ye Wushuang hasn’t followed me for long in training and hasn’t mastered it deeply enough; otherwise, how could he be killed by Ye Qingchen?”

Ye Qingchen’s face was solemn; as Mo Chen’s Swordsmanship swept forth, he immediately deployed the Sword Shadow Form.

”Clang!”

The blade lights collided.

The originally swift sword shadow was directly shattered by Mo Chen’s sword light.

Bang!

Ye Qingchen’s body suddenly shuddered, involuntarily flinging backward.

”Good!”

The Ye Family Elders cheered in unison, immensely excited.

But their cheers were greeted with scornful looks.

Such relentless oppression of the family’s meritorious ones was truly disheartening, despicable!

Yet they couldn’t care about that.

Only if Ye Qingchen died could they survive!

”You’re not that impressive either!”

On the battlefield.

Watching Ye Qingchen being pressured into retreating step by step, the ridicule in Mo Chen’s eyes grew. The sword that was initially lunging forward abruptly turned into a furious strike.

Ye Qingchen quickly reacted, lifting his sword sharply, forcibly blocking this strike!

But instantly, a terrifying force surged from the opponent’s sword, like a huge mountain pressing down on him!

His entire body’s bones, unable to bear this horrific power, even emitted a series of crisp snapping sounds.

”Kneel for me!”

Mo Chen’s face was full of mockery, his gaze akin to a Divine Dragon overlooking ants.

”Kneel? What right do you have to make me kneel?”

A surge of fury bubbled up, and Ye Qingchen roared suddenly.

Boom!

Even the void trembled.

The Star Power accumulated within him erupted like a volcanic explosion, forcefully knocking away Mo Chen’s sword!

Simultaneously, Ye Qingchen swung in a fierce slash!

The Vast Sword light, like starlight, like a torrential downpour, at an unfathomable speed, suddenly counterattacked towards Mo Chen! This extraordinary counterattack speed made Mo Chen’s expression change dramatically as he swiftly retreated.

But despite this, several blood marks appeared on his body.

Mo Chen even felt if he hadn’t retreated in time, he might have been killed by Ye Qingchen!

”Seeking death!”

Hurt by someone he despised, Mo Chen’s eyes were filled only with boundless fury.

At this moment, only one thought occupied his mind.

Kill!

The words had scarcely fallen.

A terrifying aura surged abruptly from Mo Chen.

The sword in his hand at this moment became even more dazzling, like a blazing sun, impossible to look at directly.

As he slashed forward, the might erupted to its peak.

This sword seemed capable of cleaving the heavens and earth!

The suffocating power, enough to destroy everything, left everyone in the training ground awestruck.

”It’s over!”

At this moment, Ye Cangliu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Other Ye Family elders also showed relieved smiles.

”No force can turn the tide!”

The many high-ranking figures in Cyan Cloud City shook their heads quietly.

Wu Shanhe laughed with satisfaction, ”Indeed, my disciple is still superior!”

Yet, amidst the mocking voices, Ye Qingchen on the platform, facing Mo Chen’s unstoppable sword, unexpectedly closed his eyes.

”So, this was the reason!”

”Why couldn’t I ever perform the Second Form of the Feiyu Swordsmanship?”

”Since it’s named the ’Killing Sword Form,’ how could this sword lack the intent to kill?”

As the sword light capable of tearing everything was about to strike Ye Qingchen, he suddenly opened his eyes!

In his gaze, there was neither joy nor sorrow, all killing intent resided in the sword.

Lift the sword, slash.

Clang!

The cold sword light erupted with force!

Under this sword, time itself seemed to halt! In the depths of countless people’s eyes, Mo Chen’s sword, previously unstoppable, was silently shattered!

”Pssh!”

A tearing sound abruptly arose!

Amid flying blood, Mo Chen was directly cleaved from head to foot by this sword, split in two on the spot! The Martial Arts Grandmaster at Qi Refining Twelfth Layer, Wu Shanhe’s disciple, Mo Chen fell on the spot!

”How is this possible?”

Wu Shanhe suddenly stood, his eyes full of disbelief.

Ye Cangliu’s eyes widened, his face ghostly pale.

Many Ye Family elders were like struck by thunder, utterly incredulous at their eyes.

Meanwhile, all around, everyone was dumbfounded, their hearts wildly shaken.

Today’s battle had already exceeded their imagination, whether it was Mo Chen’s overwhelming martial prowess or Ye Qingchen’s sword with a fierce killing intent, both deeply shocked them.

The entire field was silent.

Yet, Ye Qingchen’s chilling voice that pierced through hearts drifted forward.

”If anyone refuses to submit, come forth and fight again!”

Ye Qingchen held the sword, with killing intent soaring to the heavens!
