Chapter 704: Yichen Is In Danger
Waves appeared on the lake from the night breeze, creating ripples that disappeared into the distance. Further and further they went, fading into the mystery of the night. Ling Yichen watched the ripples, feeling a strange sadness.
“Who goes there?” Ling Yichen suddenly felt a sense of apprehension, and grabbed the sword hanging by his waist.
A figure slowly walked out from the darkness.
“It’s you!” Ling Yichen looked at the young man before him. It was the young master of the Heavenly Star Sect that he had met earlier—Ye Qingyun. However, besides his usual arrogance, there was a strong murderous intent emanating from him this time.
“Where is Ling Chuxi?” Ye Qingyun looked at Ling Yichen condescendingly and asked.
“Why are you looking for her?” Ling Yichen’s eyes narrowed. His fingers moved slightly and his sword left its sheath by half an inch, giving off a cold gleam that was like the surface of water.
“Stop wasting my time. Just tell me where she is,” Ye Qingyun snarled as he walked over to Ling Yichen, a strong suppression surrounding him.
“With me around, there’s no hope of you hurting her.” Ling Yichen could see the murderous intent in Ye Qingyun’s gaze and slowly drew his sword.
“Even though it’s just you?” Ye Qingyun laughed mockingly. Ling Yichen didn’t even see him move, but Ye Qingyun’s figure suddenly disappeared and reappeared in front of Ling Yichen.
Ling Yichen’s eyes shone as he swiftly swung his sword. The Great Fulfilment Pinnacle stage cultivation also left his body through this move.
Just as the sword was about to pierce Ye Qingyun’s chest, he flicked his fingers, and bits of cold stars swayed across the lake surface into a layer of lights.
Ling Yichen only felt wave after wave of a strong force surging towards him. Although it was merely a light flick of Ye Qingyun’s fingers, it was as if a heavy hammer was swinging towards him over and over again. Under the immense power, Ling Yichen almost lost his grip on his sword and was continuously forced backwards, ending up almost three feet away before he finally managed to stabilize himself. His face was pale, and his qi and blood surged inside him for a long time.
Realm of True Essence! Ling Yichen took a deep breath. Without question, his cultivation had already reached the realm of True Essence.
However, Ling Yichen did not intend to retreat, and his gaze became even more determined. With just a mere flick of his fingers, Ye Qingyun had sent his sword which had the strength of the Great Fulfilment Pinnacle stage flying. Furthermore, he was now severely injured. Even Ling Chuxi could not achieve such martial techniques. Thinking about this, Ling Yichen became even more resolved to not let this man and Ling Chuxi meet.
“Your cultivation is too weak. Tell me where Ling Chuxi is and I shall spare you from death,” Ye Qingyun sneered.
Ling Yichen did not say a word, his gaze indifferent. Forcefully suppressing the qi and blood that was in turmoil within his chest, he tightly gripped his sword and once again slashed it at Ye Qingyun.
Ye Qingyun barked out a contemptuous laugh and moved almost imperceptibly, avoiding Ling Yichen’s sword. He flicked his finger once again, and a massive force came rushing over, sending Ling Yichen flying. This time, he could no longer suppress the surge of blood and qi in his chest and spat out a mouthful of blood.
Standing up, Ling Yichen wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth and once again raised his sword. With a muffled thump, Ling Yichen was once again sent flying, coughing out blood.
“I’ll give you one last chance: Where is Ling Chuxi?” Ye Qingyun asked slowly.
“You really have a lot of nonsense to say.” Ling Yichen stood up, his face ashen, and forced a laugh. His sword moved slightly, almost like it was being hidden behind his body, and he rushed at Ye Qingyun with an odd stance.
Seeing Ling Yichen’s sword stance, Ye Qingyun’s gaze changed slightly.
Ling Yichen strode forward, his body slanted and his long sword trembling lightly. The accumulated battle qi was like a volcanic eruption, emitting a blinding flash in the night.
