Lin Xuan was dead, his great revenge fulfilled.
The Third Crown Prince felt a little better and prepared to leave. He had to find a way to restore his Spirit Vein; he couldn't truly beco a cripple.
Just then, a loud bang echoed as the surrounding secret chambers burst open. A figure shot out from within, radiating a brilliant golden light. It was an incredibly mysterious sight.
The n from the Celestial King's Mansion were all stunned. They turned to watch the scene, remaining silent for a long ti. After the golden light faded, they exclaid, "You're Ye Qingwu! You've broken through to beco a Grandmaster?"
The mbers of the Celestial King's Mansion were utterly shocked. When they had hunted her before, Ye Qingwu was only a peak Nine-Star Martial General. Although her combat power was extraordinary and comparable to a Half-Step Grandmaster, she was still a long way from the true Grandmaster realm. They had estimated it would take her at least five years to beco a Grandmaster.
But now, she had beco a One-Star Grandmaster.
This was too unbelievable.
What kind of treasure was in that secret chamber? How could it allow Ye Qingwu to break through in such a short ti? The Third Crown Prince's eyes turned red with jealousy.
Ye Qingwu was overjoyed. This ti, she had truly turned a misfortune into a blessing. By breaking through to beco a One-Star Grandmaster, her strength had increased dramatically.
She ignored the Third Crown Prince and his n, instead looking around for any sign of Lin Xuan. After searching for a mont and finding no one, she murmured, "Hasn't Junior Brother Lin returned yet?"
She decided to wait there for his return.
"Waiting for Lin Xuan?" the Third Crown Prince sneered. "Don't bother. That brat is dead. He's not coming back."
"What did you say?" Ye Qingwu frowned. "Impossible. None of you are a match for Junior Brother Lin. Don't even think about trying to fool ."
"Even though I couldn't leave the secret chamber before, I knew Junior Brother Lin was still alive."
"That was before," a man from the Celestial King's Mansion said. "Our Elder Qian Xing arrived. He's a Nine-Star Grandmaster."
"He went to hunt down Lin Xuan personally. Do you think Lin Xuan could have survived?"
What? Ye Qingwu's expression changed drastically. Lin Xuan was being hunted by a Nine-Star Grandmaster? How could this be?
"You're despicable!"
"HAHAHA," the n from the Celestial King's Mansion sneered. "It's his own fault for daring to challenge us."
The Third Crown Prince gritted his teeth and added, "Killing him like that was letting him off too easy."
"You deserve to die!" Enraged, Ye Qingwu brandished her sword and charged at the Third Crown Prince. She was going to avenge Lin Xuan.
"You're seeking death!" The n from the Celestial King's Mansion were furious and moved to stop her.
With a loud bang, both sides were forced back. The people from the Celestial King's Mansion were shocked. This is bad. The woman has beco terrifyingly strong.
From within the cage, Cang Yun and Tian Ce also rushed out and ca to the Third Crown Prince's side.
Tian Ce said, "Crown Prince, let get you out of here first!"
Cang Yun then said, "I'll hold her back."
"Alright!" The Third Crown Prince nodded. Now that he was crippled, he was unwilling to take any more risks. It's better to head back first.
Tian Ce began to escort the Third Crown Prince away with his n.
"Where do you think you're going?" Ye Qingwu's eyes were bloodshot and surging with killing intent. She would not let the Third Crown Prince escape.
Her sword summoned wind and thunder as she slashed forward. The roiling power descended fiercely.
The Third Crown Prince's expression changed drastically.
At that mont, the surrounding clouds and mist rolled and condensed into a giant palm, blocking the Wind and Thunder Sword Qi.
Cang Yun said coldly, "Your opponent is !"
"Cloud Dispersing Palm!"
With that, he launched another palm strike at Ye Qingwu, and the two clashed.
It was a battle between Grandmasters, and the montum was astonishing.
The commotion drew the attention of the onlookers.
Soone exclaid, "Holy crap, is that Ye Qingwu? How did she get so strong?"
"She broke through and beca a Grandmaster!"
"What? For real? What kind of fortuitous encounter did Ye Qingwu have to beco so powerful!"
Everyone was incredibly envious.
Cang Yun was also shocked. This woman's strength has indeed beco much more formidable. But unfortunately, she's still no match for . Although he had been injured before, he could still suppress Ye Qingwu.
While attacking, he said, "Fairy Ye, I advise you to give up. Lin Xuan is already dead. There's no point in you continuing to fight."
What? The surrounding spectators were stunned. Lin Xuan is dead? For real? He was so powerful, how could he have fallen?
"Damn it! I will kill you all and avenge Junior Brother Lin."
"Hmph, foolish girl. Do you really think you can defeat our Celestial King's Mansion?"
Cang Yun was also angered. He had been holding back before, but since Ye Qingwu didn't know what was good for her, he would no longer be rciful.
"Since you wish to die, I'll grant your wish! I'll send you to hell to be reunited with that Lin Xuan."
After he spoke, a murderous intent erupted from his body.
The power of his Cloud Dispersing Palm grew even more terrifying. One strike after another swept toward her, as if toppling mountains and overturning seas.
Ye Qingwu executed her Wind and Thunder Swordsmanship, its sword light fierce and carrying astounding power. But she had only just broken through to beco a Grandmaster, while Cang Yun was already approaching the mid-stage of a One-Star Grandmaster. There was still a significant gap between them.
Before long, Ye Qingwu was injured, and blood trickled from the corner of her mouth. But she paid it no mind. Her beautiful eyes burned with a towering rage. I must avenge Lin Xuan!
She channeled all her strength into her longsword.
Once more, her sword stirred the wind and thunder. She slashed out again. This strike was imnse; winds surged, thunder erupted, and it seed to tear through the heavens, piercing everything in its path.
The Cloud Sea in front of her was cleaved apart. The Sword Qi surged toward Cang Yun with unstoppable montum.
"Cloud Dispersing Palm! Wind Rolls Up the Remnant Cloud!"
Cang Yun waved his hand, and the Cloud Sea spun fiercely, forming a vortex that completely enveloped the Wind and Thunder Sword Qi.
Her Wind and Thunder Sword strike was restrained, trapping both her longsword and her right hand along with it. She was caught within the Cloud Sea, unable to advance or escape.
Seeing this, a smile touched the corner of Cang Yun's mouth.
"You're still far too inexperienced to fight ." While suppressing Ye Qingwu with one hand, he raised his left and extended his index finger, aiming it at the spot between her brows.
"Astonishing Cloud Finger."
The finger strike was incredibly sharp, as if it could pierce through anything.
The onlookers' hearts leaped into their throats. This is bad!
Soone said, "It's over! Ye Qingwu is dood. She can't block that finger strike."
"What a pity. She just broke through to Grandmaster and had a boundless future. Is she really going to fall here?"
"Sigh, this just proves that the Celestial King's Mansion still has the upper hand."
"First Lin Xuan, who challenged the Celestial King's Mansion, fell. Now, Ye Qingwu is about to fall as well."
"The Celestial King's Mansion truly is invincible."
Gazing at the approaching finger, a look of terror, fear, and desolation filled Ye Qingwu's beautiful eyes. Finally, she closed her eyes. Junior Brother Lin, I'm coming to join you. You won't be lonely.
Just as the finger was about to kill Ye Qingwu, a loud rumbling sound echoed from the distance. A figure shot in from afar like a bolt of lightning.
The surrounding void began to tremble.
The people nearby all turned to look. "Who is that? What a terrifying aura!"
Sensing this power, Cang Yun also turned his head. He saw a figure arrive in an instant, moving like a bolt of lightning.
Staring at this figure, Cang Yun's eyes widened until they nearly popped out of his head.
"How can it be you?" he shrieked, as if he had seen a ghost.
Ye Qingwu opened her beautiful eyes, staring dumbfounded and in disbelief at the figure before her. The next mont, an indescribable joy welled up from the depths of her heart.
"Junior Brother Lin, you're still alive!"
