Chapter 2136 - 2137: Is Your Sword Faster, or Is My Blade Fiercer?

Facing Ye Xunhuan’s fierce sword strike, the ancient warrior did not counterattack but immediately leaned back, his body like a tumbling toy, allowing the sharp sword to pass by.

As the sword wind passed, the ancient warrior was immediately surrounded by a layer of Gang Qi, rendering the sword wind harmless!

Having failed to injure the ancient warrior with one strike, Ye Xunhuan showed no trace of discouragement or disappointment.

Although he didn’t know who the ancient warrior really was, nor what role he played among the protectors of the nation!

But from Ye Fanchen’s words, Ye Xunhuan could feel that the ancient warrior before him was not easy to deal with, and was likely the strongest existence within Broken Cliff Residence.

After all, someone had to be able to suppress Ye Fanchen here, to make him behave; otherwise, why would Ye Fanchen be compliant!

Then, Ye Xunhuan reversed his hand and drew the sharp sword toward the ancient warrior once more.

The sharp sword was like a meteor rapidly falling from mid-air, slicing a magnificent arc in an instant!

The difference was, this arc was filled with murderous intent, deadly, not meant to be admired!

Faced with Ye Xunhuan’s reverse sword, the ancient warrior’s legs immediately slid away!

Indeed, they slid.

It seemed as if there were wheels under the ancient warrior’s feet.

"Swish!"

As Ye Xunhuan’s sword struck, the ancient warrior’s right hand immediately flicked out!

"Clang!"

The ancient warrior’s finger landed directly on Ye Xunhuan’s sword strike, flicking the sword away, even though his arm trembled slightly, causing the ancient warrior to shift from disdain to seriousness in his gaze towards Ye Xunhuan.

Because Ye Xunhuan indeed had the ability to be taken seriously.

"Void Step!" the ancient warrior looked at Ye Xunhuan with a slightly solemn expression: "In your twenties, reaching Void Step, perhaps you are currently the youngest expert at this stage!"

"It seems so!"

Ye Xunhuan didn’t know what Ye Fanchen made him drink last. But after enduring the excruciating pain, his strength miraculously soared, propelling him into the coveted Void Step stage.

However, Ye Xunhuan didn’t know that Ye Fanchen, while detoxifying him, was planning how to make Ye Xunhuan stronger, to ensure a safer departure.

Ultimately, Ye Fanchen thought of a do-or-die method.

By using poison to treat poison, and at the same time stimulating Ye Xunhuan’s meridians and acupoints with the poison’s effects, allowing his internal energy to surge wildly. If Ye Xunhuan could maintain his spiritual consciousness, there was a chance for success.

At the time, Ye Fanchen had only a twenty to thirty percent chance of success, seemingly slim, and if unsuccessful, then truly a martyr!

The truism being, Ye Xunhuan could either become disabled or dead!

In essence, Ye Fanchen put Ye Xunhuan in a situation to fight desperately, granting him entry into the Void Step stage, enabling him to stand against the ancient warrior!

Ye Xunhuan, knowing the Grand Profound Scripture, and also possessing the Tai Chi Seal and He Luo.

He could indeed stand firm against him, the outcome a fifty-fifty chance!

Still, if Olivia knew of Ye Fanchen’s reckless methods, she might want to strangle him to death!

"Even if you die, you can be proud!" the ancient warrior said calmly.

Though Ye Xunhuan had reached the Void Step stage, in the eyes of the ancient warrior, or in his heart, a young Void Step expert—even if exceptional—couldn’t compare. There’s no way Ye Xunhuan could rival the infamous Demonic Lord, a rare prodigy!

With these words, eyes filled with experience quickly shot forth a lightning-like blinding light!

As Ye Xunhuan felt the light from the ancient warrior’s gaze, his heart immediately tightened, a premonition ran wild within making Ye Xunhuan tense up completely.

Without delay, the ancient warrior moved, taking just one step to cross in front of Ye Xunhuan, his large hand descending from above, grasping toward Ye Xunhuan.

But before the ancient warrior could grab Ye Xunhuan, Ye Xunhuan already floated several meters back, simultaneously letting out a low shout: "Galaxy Collapse!"

"Swish!"

The sword in Ye Xunhuan’s hand seemed alive, issuing a dragon-like light hum, while at that moment his sword exuded a dazzling golden light. Whether caused by sunlight reflecting on it or other reasons was unclear!

The sharp sword swung out rapidly, a flash of golden light appeared in mid-air, appearing as if descended by a god enveloped in mild radiance.

But in the next moment, the mild aura vanished abruptly, replaced by an aggressive, bloodthirsty atmosphere, as if a savage beast awakened, its inherent ferocity rushing out, roaring toward all directions!

Upon witnessing this, the ancient warrior’s complexion worsened from serious to shocking change, swiftly channeling his Inner Strength into a protective Gang Qi!

"Bang!"

"Boom..."

A dull sound immediately echoed around, like a tiger roar, or rolling thunder reverberating in the air, enduring!

Meanwhile, dust and fierce energy surged outward, preventing anyone from opening their eyes!

Moments later, tranquility returned, allowing people to finally see what lay before them.

Blood unknowingly seeped from the ancient warrior’s lips, while Ye Xunhuan’s right hand bled, staining the sword in his hand, slowly flowing down!

At the moment the huge muffled sound echoed, the ancient warrior’s protective Gang Qi was shattered by Ye Xunhuan’s strike, prompting him to decisively counter-attack Ye Xunhuan. Though it hurt Ye Xunhuan, the ancient warrior paid a significant price!

"More than twenty years, for over twenty years, not even a king could force me to draw my blade!" the ancient warrior staunchly declared to Ye Xunhuan: "Today, you force me to draw my blade, even in the underworld, you can rest in peace!"

"It should be you who cannot rest in peace in the underworld!" Ye Xunhuan replied coldly: "Your blade is destined for defeat against my sword and you’re fated to die by its edge!"

Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan’s arrogant words, the ancient warrior burst into wild laughter!

"Hahaha..."

The hysterical laughter echoed like the Lion’s Roar from Shaolin Temple, not only ear-piercing but also hurting people’s eardrums!

Suddenly, the laughter ceased, and the ancient warrior’s expression became sharp: "Come, young man, let me see if your sword is faster, or my blade more intense!"
