Young Master in Flower City

Chapter 1154 1155: Celestial Mountain Sword Intent

So, just as Xiao Jiu was about to say something, Ye Qingcheng interrupted directly: "If you have this thought again, believe it or not, I'll kill you!"

Ye Qingcheng's gaze was extremely cold, chilling to the bone. It was evident that she was not joking; even though it concerned her appearance, she wouldn't allow other men to desecrate her. Moreover, she decided that her feminine attire would only be seen by Xiao Tianyu.

Xiao Jiu was left utterly stunned. Was there a need to be so ruthless, the level of enmity...?

Whoosh~

However, just as they were conversing, a Sword Light suddenly streaked up from below, fast as a streak of light, causing Xiao Jiu's heart to tighten. Without time to retaliate, he immediately positioned his body in front of Ye Qingcheng.

"Watch out!" Xiao Jiu shouted, but before the words left his mouth, the Sword Light had already pierced through his left shoulder, blood blossoming forth.

Upon hearing this, Ye Qingcheng became aware, Sword Qi erupted, boom~ the Sword Light dissipated under her Sword Qi.

A sneak attack?

Swish, swish, swish~

All eyes below focused on one person from the Profound Sect; this person was none other than Lu Hao, who had been previously crushed by Xiao Jiu.

Apparently, he couldn't accept his recent defeat, so while Ye Qingcheng and Xiao Jiu were distracted, he chose to launch a sneak attack, a despicable act blatantly insulting the Profound Sect.

Zhan Mo coldly glared at Lu Hao, giving a snort: "Dare to attempt this again, and I will not spare you!"

Zhan Mo, a renowned prodigy, would rather openly seize Imperial Qi without resorting to such petty tricks, risking his reputation and that of the Profound Sect. If not for Lu Hao's elder brother Lu Chengfeng, Zhan Mo might well have slapped him.

Upon hearing this, Lu Hao's face looked unpleasant, especially as he felt the disdainful gazes surrounding him. It made him feel worse since the sneak attack failed to claim the lives of Ye Qingcheng and Xiao Jiu as well.

"Xiao Jiu, are you alright!" Ye Qingcheng quickly supported Xiao Jiu, who chuckled: "I'm fine!"

"You fool, even if you hadn't blocked that sword for me, it wouldn't have harmed me!" Ye Qingcheng spoke to Xiao Jiu, her voice slightly more gentle, less cold than before.

Clearly, Xiao Jiu's action of blocking a sword for her had drawn them closer.

"If you were harmed, explaining to the boss would be difficult!" Xiao Jiu chuckled.

Upon these words, Ye Qingcheng's heart skipped a beat~ He cares about my life and death?

Subsequently, Ye Qingcheng propped Xiao Jiu's body against a rock wall, her cold, beautiful eyes looking down, her tone icy: "Hand over!"

Her voice contained an unparalleled cold killing intent, regardless of the adversary's identity today, they would pay the price.

Initially, Ye Qingcheng had no killing intent, considering the prominent backgrounds of the people here; it wasn't wise to offend too much.

However, circumstances have changed; someone dared to launch a sneak attack, almost claiming Xiao Jiu's life. How could she not be angry?

"To demand the Profound Sect hand him over? Such a domineering tone!" Xuan Yue was slightly surprised, unsure where this person's confidence stemmed from.

Meanwhile, Zhan Mo spoke: "The sneak attack wasn't sanctioned by our Profound Sect, I have scolded him!"

Scolded him?

A moment ago, they nearly took Xiao Jiu's life, and Zhan Mo casually mentioned a scolding, expecting that to resolve the matter?

Ye Qingcheng would not be content.

So, Ye Qingcheng declared: "If you won't hand him over, I'll retrieve him myself!"

Ye Qingcheng's words were imbued with killing intent, regardless of the assailant's identity or background, today Ye Qingcheng would certainly kill him, what she says she will do.

"Proclaim your Imperial Qi's defense, then we shall see!" Celestial Sect Jian Cheng snorted, his Sword Qi filled the air, rushing towards Ye Qingcheng, who snorted coldly: "Courting death!"

Swoosh~

As her words fell, in her beautiful eyes, endless cold surged; as Jian Cheng charged, suddenly, the entire Celestial Mountain shifted, terrifying Sword Power swept everything, resonating with the Sword Intent on Ye Qingcheng, making her Sword Power increasingly strong, seemingly endless.

"What's happening?" someone cried out.

"She has mastered the Twenty-Seven Steps of Sword Unsealing, successfully inheriting the legacy of Jue Chen Sword Saint. On Celestial Mountain, everywhere bears sword markings left by Jue Chen Sword Saint; she seems to be leveraging the power of these markings to strengthen her Sword Power.

Indeed, in the next moment, the snow on Celestial Mountain melted, revealing deep sword marks several meters deep, each mark containing unrivaled Sword Qi, some even brilliantly shining.

As expected, she really utilized the sword marks on Celestial Mountain. No wonder she remained atop, never descending.

Indeed, Ye Qingcheng mastered the Twenty-Seven Steps of Sword Unsealing, thoroughly comprehending the sword marks on the Sword Wall, each mark containing supreme Sword Intent, for her use.

On Celestial Mountain, her figure dressed in white, wielding the sword, Sword Intent emerges, a great roc appears, commanding the world, resonating with the Celestial Sword Wall, in an instant, infinite Sword Light with the aura of overwhelming power rushed toward Jian Cheng.

Every sword stroke carried the will of Jue Chen Sword Saint.

In that instant, Jian Cheng felt as though his entire body was being pierced by countless Sword Qi, his body seemingly trapped in the endless Sword Abyss.

Not a real abyss, but engulfed in Jue Chen Sword Saint's boundless Sword Intent.

Even though the Sword Qi didn't harm him, he felt his body being pierced by countless Sword Qi, his complexion pale and grim, struggling in vain.

"No..."

Suddenly, everyone heard Jian Cheng's anguished howls, his voice filled with despair.

No one knew what Jian Cheng was experiencing, but everyone agreed that Jian Cheng was in immense pain, and looked utterly miserable, lacking any of his previous aloofness.

Thud, thud, thud~

Following that, multiple Sword Lights left bloody marks upon him, staining his clothes with blood fiercely and shockingly.

"Ah..."

With a scream, Jian Cheng's body fell heavily to the ground, blood gushing uncontrollably.

This was with Ye Qingcheng showing mercy, otherwise Jian Cheng might have perished there.

The Celestial Sect's top disciple, Jian Cheng, was directly defeated.

His entire body trembled, his eyes filled with immense fear, he was terrified, truly terrified, moments ago he even saw death beckoning him.

"This..."

The crowd demonstrated astonishment, the unparalleled genius standing atop Celestial Mountain, utilizing the sword markings within the Sword Wall, completely defeated Jian Cheng, too terrifying.

"It's truly getting more interesting!" Xuan Yue in the back of the crowd looked at Ye Qingcheng with a charming smile, so dashing, his talent even more so, enough to stir my heart.

The Sword Intent vanished, Ye Qingcheng gazed at Jian Cheng, speaking coldly: "Still thinking of depriving my Imperial Qi?"

With these words, everyone's hearts trembled, even Zhan Mo's expression wasn't good, at the same level as Jian Cheng who was unable to resist, what about him? Was there still a qualification to seize Ye Qingcheng's Imperial Qi?

Undoubtedly, the worst face was not Zhan Mo, but Lu Hao behind him, he had just launched a sneak attack on Ye Qingcheng.
