C9 Interlude
Fire Cloud City was located in the western region of Chu Country, a human city closest to the Falling Wind Mountain Range.
Someone had claimed to have seen the Qilin in the Falling Wind Mountain Range with his own eyes. This news had spread throughout the Eastern Continent in just a few days. Therefore, the Fire Cloud City had become the city that cultivators visited the most in the past few days. There were many different kinds of cultivators among them. Other than the cultivators from the east, there were also some cultivators from the west who came and went.
Divine Beast Qilin. Legend has it that it was an auspicious beast.
However, this was what mortals said. To cultivators, they paid more attention to the powerful divine beast cultivation of the Qilin. Who wouldn't want to subdue a powerful divine beast? However, most of the cultivators who came and went to 'visit' the divine beast only wanted to see the splendor of the Qilin.
They were also hoping to try their luck.
When facing a Godly Beast, they knew their own limitations. Most of the creatures that were associated with Godly Beasts were extremely powerful. Any human who was not at the pinnacle of cultivation would definitely not be able to match up to them. If they were to encounter one, they would have to consider how to escape first.
On top of a restaurant in Fire Cloud City, Bai Ye was still dressed in white by the window. The mask on the upper half of his head was different from the people around him. He had a pair of blue eye sockets, and the blue marks under his eyes were like blood stains that extended to one-third of the lower half of his face. It brought a trace of demonic charm to his handsome face.
A person sitting in this seat attracted a lot of attention. However, most of the people who were cultivators did not think much of it. After all, the world was full of strange things. Occasionally, there would be cultivators or humans who practiced some strange cultivation methods.
Looking at the bustling crowd outside the window and downstairs, Bai Ye could not help but sigh at the charm of the Qilin. More than half of these people were cultivators. Most of the cultivators who were successful in their cultivation were people who did not follow the law and did not respect the gods and buddhas.
The place where cultivation gathered was the most chaotic place. The authorities could not care less about these so-called matters in the pugilistic world.
At this moment, the streets suddenly became lively. On the streets, A martial artist from the east and a martial artist from the west holding a big sword faced each other. That martial artist from the east was a lone ranger. A handsome and handsome young man with delicate features held a long sword in one hand and blocked an old man behind him. The old man had clearly been hit by the collision just now and was now lying on the ground, unable to get up.
The young man glared at the young man with the cold and arrogant look on his face.
Although they were separated by a great distance, this distance was naturally negligible to Bai Ye.
The young man frowned and shouted, "You are cultivators, but you are stronger than the weak. Aren't you afraid of retribution?"
The young man with the big sword smiled with disdain. "Retribution. You people from the east like to hang on to retribution all day long. You don't know anything. If you can't win, you have to use reasons to stop the war. You are extremely ignorant. "
The young man's words made the matter of just a few people instantly become a conflict between the views of the cultivators from the east and west. Most of the cultivators gathered here were cultivators from the east. Their entire team consisted of no less than ten cultivators from the West, including mages and warriors who practiced combat power.
The young man's words were arrogant. The teammates behind him could not help but curse secretly. He didn't know what was good for him. There were so many eastern cultivators gathered in Fire Cloud City. Didn't he say that he wanted to make an enemy of the eastern cultivators? However, it would be useless no matter what they said. He could not help but wonder what he should do after angering the public later. They were even thinking that after this, they would definitely request the Guild Leader to tank this fellow. . .
The young man who spoke first laughed loudly at this moment: "Did everyone hear that? There's a young Western Vigilante here. He declared that none of us Eastern cultivators are a match for him. What do you think we should do?"
The surrounding cultivators immediately boiled up. Some of them cursed at the young man for not knowing the immensity of heaven and earth. Many cultivators who had good intentions even stood up and openly supported the young man.
The young man's expression changed drastically. His words just now were also caused by a moment of impulsiveness and arrogance. Being snatched by the young man, his face instantly turned ashen. He pointed his long sword and shouted, "Don't try to mislead the crowd. The young man in front of him: If you have the ability, come out and fight me. The winner is the king, and the loser is the bandit!"
"Aiyo, Western Vigilante, didn't you want to become enemies with our Eastern Cultivation World just now? What do you mean now you're going to fight me, a young man with weak martial arts alone?"
The young man said in a strange tone.
"You! A cowardly rat. If you have the guts, come and fight me one on one! "The young man was burning with rage, ignoring the curses of the surrounding eastern cultivators. At this point, his teammates, and even the western cultivators who had gathered at the Falling Wind Mountain Range for the matter of the Le Qilin, did not dare to interfere. After all, this was the territory of the eastern cultivation world.
The young man frowned and shouted coldly: "If you come, then come. Who's afraid of who?" Then, he walked out from the crowd and pointed his sword at the youth.
"Hmph, my name is Oris. Remember my name when you lose later. Otherwise, you won't know who defeated you!" The young man said disdainfully, returning to his confident expression.
"Being complacent so early, you're usually the one who loses!" The young man was eloquent. After he finished speaking, he seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said, "I seem to have forgotten that you Westerners seem to be good at talking. You usually lie first, but in the end, you lose the most miserably. "
"Let's wait until you win!" The young man knew that it was not good to talk to this young man who was slightly younger than him, so he simply shut his mouth and did not say anything. He swung his long sword horizontally and a stream of Dou Qi swept out. The cold wind swept the dust on the ground.
Seeing that the two of them had started fighting, the crowd immediately stepped back a little. They were afraid that they would bring disaster to the fish pond. Fortunately, a kind-hearted eastern cultivator also pulled the old man into the distance.
Instantly, an empty space was created for the two of them.
"Well done!" The young man shouted and immediately jumped. He dodged the Dou Qi attack and used exquisite steps to rush forward.
The eastern warriors were destined to suffer some losses in the early stages of the battle with the western warriors. This was because among the eastern warriors, only those who had reached the third step and above could reach the sword energy exit the body. The western warriors who practiced battle energy could reach the first step and reach the battle energy exit the body.
When the young man saw that the young man easily dodged a combat power slash, he said, "Okay. " He waved his big sword again and again. Immediately, three combat power slashes were slashed out again from three directions towards the young man.
This move was the limit that the young man could reach at the moment. Three Dou Qi attacks created a strong wind, blowing the ground until three shallow cracks appeared.
When the youth faced the incoming Dou Qi slash, his expression changed slightly! He suddenly stepped back and stomped on the ground. His entire body rushed into the sky, barely dodging the three Dou Qi slashes. Moreover, his entire body carried the momentum of charging down from the sky. The young man fiercely slashed out with his sword.
The young man's expression changed slightly. This move was extremely swift and fierce. In an emergency, he had enough time to block it with his big sword.
"Clang!" The sound of metal colliding with metal was extremely ear-piercing. The two swords formed a strong hurricane between the two of them. The youth flipped backwards to get rid of the rebounding force, while the youth retreated more than ten steps before coming to a stop.
It was an evenly matched fight. Seeing that the youth had the upper hand, the eastern cultivators all cheered.
"Beat that western dog until he vomited three liters of blood. " "Beat him to death. "
When he stood still, the young man's face turned crimson! He forcefully swallowed the mouthful of blood that was stuck in his chest. Although they appeared to be evenly matched on the surface, However, he knew that he had still lost to the other party by a notch, so he welcomed the attack. There was no longer any meaning in continuing the competition. More importantly, he looked to the side. He found out that his ten teammates had disappeared without a trace when he arrived.
"You're ruthless!" The young man said. Then, he miserably joined the crowd and disappeared without a trace. He wasn't stupid to the point that he still didn't understand what was going on. . .
The youth disdainfully smiled. "A stray dog. " He also allowed the youth to escape.
