34: Chapter 033: One Battle Before Leaving 34: Chapter 033: One Battle Before Leaving “Are you leaving?” Su Ying repeated the sentence, her clear, spring-like eyes filled with disappointnt.
Although they had spent less than a month together, the figure of the young man had silently settled in her heart, difficult to erase.
Despite knowing Xiao Ye would leave, hearing the news now still threw her heart into disarray.
“Miss Su, what’s wrong?” Xiao Ye asked, sowhat bewildered.
“No…
it’s nothing.” Su Ying bit her red lip, a miserable smile appeared on her beautiful face, then she turned away disheartened.
Watching the girl’s figure, Xiao Ye shook his head, keenly sensing sothing amiss, but he did not think deeply about it.
“I wonder how the town is doing.” Xiao Ye’s gaze flickered, worry in his heart.
To send him off from Green Sun Town, the three village chiefs and Xiao Yang had together intercepted the Blood Wolf, and it had been two months since then.
“I hope the village is alright.” Xiao Ye decided not to dwell on these thoughts anymore.
Soon, the news of Xiao Ye’s departure spread throughout the entire Su Family.
“Young brother, you’ve helped our Su Family so much, why not stay a bit longer so I can properly host you?” Su ng personally ca over.
“Thank you, Su Family Master, but I have matters to attend to and cannot stay longer,” Xiao Ye shook his head and said.
Su ng could only smile wryly in resignation and said, “Alright, but there is one thing I must warn you about.”
“The people from the Ancient Family are surely harboring resentnt against you.
While you are in the Su Residence, they wouldn’t dare to confront you, but once you step out of the Su Family’s gates, they will target you.
You should be careful.”
“Thank you for the warning, Su Family Master.” Xiao Ye nodded calmly.
From what he understood, the head of the Ancient Family, Gu Chuqiu, was at the early stage of Postnatal Realm Ninth Layer, a level Xiao Ye wasn’t afraid of with his current strength.
“It seems that during your ti in the Blood Cleansing Pool, you’ve gained a lot of benefits,” Su ng squinted his eyes, scrutinizing the young man in front of him.
The more he observed, the more alard he felt, as he could sowhat see through Xiao Ye less and less.
“Little brother, the Ancient Family isn’t as simple as you think.
Otherwise, with Gu Chuqiu’s cultivation, he wouldn’t be so arrogant,” Su ng sighed.
A thought struck Xiao Ye, could there be an unimaginable background to the Ancient Family?
With Su ng’s reminder, Xiao Ye felt sothing was amiss.
The Ancient Family, including Gu Chuqiu, only had two Martial Artists at the Postnatal Nine Layers, which logically, couldn’t make them the leading family among the three major families.
After all, the Su Family and the Zhang Family were no weaklings.
“Gu Chuqiu’s talent is only diocre; he achieved the early stage of Postnatal Realm Ninth Layer after many years of cultivation.
But he has a twin brother, Gu Chudong!”
When ntioning this na, Su ng’s eyes were full of wariness.
“Gu Chudong is exceptionally talented; twenty years ago, he entered the Chongyang Sect after passing an examination, and fifteen years ago, he advanced to the Innate Realm and held a high position in the Chongyang Sect.”
“It’s precisely because of his presence that the Ancient Family beca the foremost among the three great families of Wutan City, making us wary,” Su ng slowly explained.
Xiao Ye’s brows furrowed upon hearing this.
Gu Chudong had already broken through to the Innate Realm fifteen years ago, his current level of cultivation must be extrely terrifying.
“Even if Gu Chuqiu is formidable, he can’t deter my resolve to enter the Chongyang Sect!” Xiao Ye’s eyes shot a sharp look, revealing his determination.
His Martial Arts Heart was such, regardless of how powerful the enemy, he would not retreat, otherwise how could he defeat Zhao Qian who entered the Innate level at sixteen?
“Good lad,” Su ng had been watching Xiao Ye’s expression when ntioning Gu Chudong.
When he observed that not only was there no fear, but his gaze turned even more resolute, he couldn’t help but admire him.
The strength of Xiao Ye’s Martial Arts Heart, even he could feel it.
“In the upcoming Chongyang Sect examinations, this young man might probably make a remarkable impact, and Ying’er is destined not to be his concern,” Su ng thought to himself.
He was naturally aware of his daughter’s feelings.
But with a genius like Xiao Ye, destined to soar to great heights, the future achievents he might gain were enough for them to look up to; he dared not hope that Xiao Ye would take an interest in Su Ying.
“Su Family Master, take care, I hope we et again.”
At the entrance of the Su Family Mansion, Su ng and so important Su Family mbers saw Xiao Ye off.
“Ha ha, I’m looking forward to your impressive performance in the Chongyang Sect examinations,” Su ng laughed and bowed.
Xiao Ye grinned, his gaze sweeping over the Su Family mbers, yet he didn’t see Su Ying.
He had planned to bid farewell to the girl.
After all, his entry into the Blood Cleansing Pool was thanks to Su Ying.
Now, not seeing her, he felt a bit disappointed.
“I’m off,” Xiao Ye retracted his gaze and walked away briskly.
“Ah, that silly girl has actually avoided seeing ,” Su ng looked towards the shadow behind him, where a slender figure was lingering.
…
“Hmm, that boy has left the Su Family, it seems he’s headed out of the town,” a young man nearby the Su Family Mansion shivered, staring at Xiao Ye’s retreating back.
“Quick, notify the Family Head,” the young man hurriedly turned around and ran towards the Ancient Mansion.
Soon, this news reached the Ancient Family.
“Hmph, this brat has finally left the Su Family, I’ve been waiting for a long ti,” Gu Chuqiu stood up with a grim expression, his body surging with True Qi, radiating a murderous aura.Transactional_SMS
“Hmph, after that kid went through the purification of the Blood Cleansing Pool, no one in the Ancient Family can deal with him besides and Uncle Yun,” Gu Chuqiu said coldly.
The young man gasped upon hearing this.
Could the teenager, who looked much younger than him, really be that formidable?
Was he worth Gu Chuqiu personally taking action?
…
After leaving the Su Family, Xiao Ye carried the Fla Saber and left Wutan City.
“Back to Green Sun Town!” Xiao Ye’s eyes looked into the distance, his heart thrilling up.
Green Sun Town, Xiao Family Village, that was his ho, his roots, and with the worries in his heart, he naturally felt an urgent pull to return.
“Kid, you finally decided to leave the Su Family, huh?”
Just as Xiao Ye had walked ten miles, a sudden whooshing sound ca from behind.
“Finally here, huh?” A cold smirk appeared on Xiao Ye’s face as he turned around, only to see Gu Chuqiu with a powerful aura, standing behind him with his hands behind his back, looking down at him with a superior gaze.
Seeing Gu Chuqiu, he wasn’t surprised at all.
In fact, he had been on alert since he left the Su Family.
“You don’t seem surprised, did you know I would co?” Gu Chuqiu frowned slightly.
Xiao Ye took off the Fla Saber from his back, his face showing a mocking expression: “Besides you, who else from the Ancient Family dares to pursue ?”
“You!”
Enraged by these words, Gu Chuqiu clenched his fists, but he knew that what Xiao Ye said was true.
Gu Chen, who he had high hopes for, failed to absorb any power from the Blood Cleansing Pool.
He couldn’t even retain the title of the number one genius of Wutan City, let alone compare with Xiao Ye.
Other than Gu Chen, there was no one in the younger generation of the Ancient Family capable of contending with Xiao Ye.
Just thinking about this, Gu Chuqiu was overwheld with killing intent.
If it weren’t for Xiao Ye, would Gu Chen’s cultivation have remained stagnant?
“Kid, I will cripple your cultivation and imprison you in the Gu Residence, making you a slave for life.” True Qi burst forth from Gu Chuqiu’s entire body as he walked toward Xiao Ye.
“Thinking of crippling my cultivation?
I’m afraid you don’t have the strength,” Xiao Ye mocked with a shake of his head.
The True Qi in his twelve ridians roared to life, an imnse aura soaring into the sky, confronting Gu Chuqiu.
“Postnatal Realm, Mid Eighth Level!” Gu Chuqiu’s expression stiffened, his pupils constricting sharply.
“I really didn’t expect, you gained so much from the Blood Cleansing Pool,” Gu Chuqiu’s eyes flashed coldly, “but you’re still far from being able to contend with .”
With that, Gu Chuqiu burst forth, throwing a punch at Xiao Ye with his pure True Qi, endowing it with astonishing penetration power.
Second Grade Combat Skill, Mountain Opening Fist!
Xiao Ye narrowed his eyes, recognizing Gu Chuqiu’s fist technique, the very sa Second Grade Combat Skill used by Gu Chen that day.
Now in Gu Chuqiu’s hands, the power of this set of combat skills had increased more than tenfold, the force surging on the fist front capable of utterly smashing a small mountain.
This was the real Mountain Opening Fist!
Xiao Ye dared not be negligent, his figure shifted, and the advanced version of the Great Collapse Palm was unleashed, five booms linking in a chain.
“Hmph, do you really think a First-Grade Battle Technique can match a Second Grade Combat Skill?” Gu Chuqiu sneered coldly, his True Qi explosively surged, and the power of his fist increased further.
Boom!
Their figures heavily collided, the strong force generating intense wind pressure sweeping in all directions.
Xiao Ye snorted coldly, retreating three steps, while Gu Chuqiu’s forward montum was also forcibly stopped.
“Strong.” Xiao Ye stared at Gu Chuqiu, but his heart was excited.
The advanced version of Great Collapse Palm, while sowhat inferior to a true Second Grade Combat Skill, not to ntion Gu Chuqiu had nearly perfected it, it was already impressive for him to be able to fight to a standstill against Gu Chuqiu.
“If I had a real Second Grade Combat Skill, without even using the Martial Arts True Intent, I could defeat Gu Chuqiu,” Xiao Ye’s eyes filled with confidence.
Through this battle, he clearly realized how astonishing his own strength was now.
At this mont, Gu Chuqiu was sowhat horrified in his heart.
Although he had pushed Xiao Ye back, he was deeply shaken.
Knowing that he had the upper hand both in cultivation and combat skills, but he only managed to push the opponent back by three steps.
If this were to spread out, his reputation would be utterly ruined.
“Kid, you actually aren’t running away?
Are you waiting to be crippled by ?” Gu Chuqiu’s face was cold as he once again deployed the Mountain Opening Fist, attacking Xiao Ye.
However, Xiao Ye looked playfully at him, causing him to inexplicably feel a tremor in his heart.
“It seems it’s you who should be running!” Along with Xiao Ye’s voice, a dazzling blade light suddenly appeared.
The Oppressive Saber!
Xiao Ye swiftly drew out the Fla Saber, casually slashing toward Gu Chuqiu.
“What is this!”
Gu Chuqiu’s face turned pale, his body trembling.
In his eyes, that one saber seed to have triggered a heavenly and earthly oppression, crushing his attack with a force that could obliterate everything.
Swish!
Just as the blade was about to strike Gu Chuqiu, it suddenly stopped.
Gu Chuqiu breathed a sigh of relief and smirked at Xiao Ye: “Kid, I am the head of the Ancient Family, my brother holds a high position in Chongyang Sect, do you dare to kill ?”
Xiao Ye smirked in response.
“You’re thinking too much.
It’s not that I dare not kill you, I just want to return you the favor of how you dealt with .”
With that, Xiao Ye reversed the Fla Saber and struck Gu Chuqiu’s abdon swiftly with the hilt.
At the sa ti, robust True Qi surged along the blade, erupting like a volcano, the terrifying power bursting forth instantly.
