I Can Destroy Planets with My Psychokinesis-Chapter 339. Sword Fight

In the grand hall, the auspicious time was nearly upon them, and the ceremony was about to begin.

However, Hou Shaoyi stood beside Li Yuanzhong and transmitted his voice using True Qi:

"Master, Governor Jiang hasn’t sent anyone here..."

It was both reasonable and customary for the Governor to show some acknowledgement when the greatest Sect within his jurisdiction had a cause for celebration, at the very least by sending someone to attend.

The current silence was quite thought-provoking.

Many of the guests had already noticed that something was amiss and began whispering amongst themselves.

Dwelling on it was futile, so Li Yuanzhong decided to proceed with the ceremony first.

Just then, he frowned and looked toward the mountain gate.

After a moment, the disciple on duty at the entrance of the great hall suddenly shouted:

"Master Shen Siang has arrived!"

Upon hearing this announcement, the hall instantly fell silent, and many faces showed a look of anticipation for the drama to come.

Under the watchful eyes of all, a young man and woman stepped through the main entrance of the great hall.

The man appeared to be in his early twenties, his demeanor cold and arrogant, his gaze dominating; he was none other than the son of Governor Jiang of Two Rivers—Azure Dragon Shen Siang.

Upon his arrival, countless bootlickers immediately nodded and bowed, offering their greetings.

Accustomed to such scenes, Shen Siang returned the gestures casually with a nod and then walked up front with the young woman.

"Greetings, True Master."

Shen Siang gave a brisk fist salute before introducing the young woman by his side:

"This is the Taishan Sect’s True Inheritor—Su Qing, my fiancée... who just broke through to the Golden Body Realm a month ago."

This Su Qing’s features were as exquisite as a painting, and her figure was graceful, exuding the aura of a fairy.

She nodded slightly to Li Yuanzhong as her way of greeting, appearing rather casual and not too respectful.

But the guests in the hall immediately showed shock, murmuring, "Golden Body Realm!" "For real!?"

Su Qing deliberately released her aura; her Life Magnetism surged around her like fierce flames, causing the guests in the hall to retreat.

Feeling the gap in vitality, many faces in the crowd were filled with envy and even disbelief:

"The Great Grandmaster of the Five Mountains Immortal Sect wants to take her as his wife!?"

"He is the Azure Dragon, what’s impossible for him!"

"Wait... By bringing his wife along, could it be he intends to give Dragon Sect a taste of their own medicine!?"

...

Shen Siang hooked the corner of his mouth, quite pleased with the shocking effect his fiancee had induced.

His visit was indeed meant as a retaliatory face slap!

With ambitions encompassing the entire land, he was soon to manifest his Wish Power and become a Manifesting Saint. How could he allow a stain of ridicule to mar his reputation?

Li Yuanzhong had no desire to quarrel with a junior, and he didn’t want infighting to benefit the Chuyun people, so he spoke warmly:

"It’s a joyous occasion for the esteemed couple to join us today. You both are the elites of the younger generation, and it would be good to interact more in the future."

"Of course."

Shen Siang laughed aloud, seizing the opportunity to eye Xia Weiyun’s seductive figure, his heart ablaze with desire:

"What a sublime temptress; a normal man would deplete his Yang Element with just an embrace."

Dragons are naturally lascivious creatures, and Xia Weiyun felt goosebumps all over from his gaze.

She had an innate dislike of this Azure Dragon from the start, which was why she took the vows to avoid marriage.

Seeing him again today, she found his repulsiveness far exceeding her memories.

Xia Weiyun moved behind Lu Li, using him as a shield against the disturbing stare.

Meanwhile, Lu Li was sizing up Shen Siang’s fiancée—Su Qing.

He had always been immune to any so-called fairy aura; his gaze swept over her hips and chest, arriving at a conclusion of "not bad."

Su Qing sensed Lu Li’s gaze, and her eyes grew even colder.

Shen Siang also looked at Lu Li, noticed his severed leg, and his eyes showed a hint of disdain.

"Lu Li, right? I heard you killed Ling Gui. Well done."

Shen Siang assumed a condescending posture, commenting:

"The Golden Race often perpetrates injustice; they truly deserve to be condemned by all. However, with you wielding five Flying Swords, your divided focus reduced your prowess. One of these days, I’ll give you some pointers."

Xia Weiyun was not having it, and she spoke coldly:

"Shen Siang, you’re only a notch higher in the Martial Arts Realm, what makes you think you’re qualified to give pointers to my husband!"

Shen Siang simply smiled without speaking. Su Qing took the initiative to speak up:

"Why don’t we try and see if I’m qualified? You said it yourself—just a notch higher in the Martial Arts Realm. Let’s have a sword fight solely based on spirit, dare you!!"

"You..."

Xia Weiyun was sent reeling by the opponent seizing the advantage in the argument.

"Sword Fight" was like "fighting crickets"—the Flying Swords would do the fighting.

This counted as a kind of "verbal battle," after all, a defeat wouldn’t endanger anyone’s life.

But the problem was that even if they only used spirit, the explosive power of an Azure Dragon Martial Arts Innate was still significantly superior.

Furthermore, since Scoundrel Su dared to bring it up openly, he must be confident in something.

Xia Weiyun certainly didn’t want to agree, and Li Yuanzhong wanted to smooth things over...

But Lu Li didn’t want to drag out the conversation and simply said, "Since Azure Dragon is interested, let’s just exchange pointers."

"What a refreshing person!"

Seeing that the cripple really dared to accept, Shen Siang inwardly laughed at the other’s overestimation of himself and quickly opened his mouth to seal the deal:

"I’m itching to show some skill as well, so let’s just exchange pointers with sword control through spirit. Don’t worry~ I definitely won’t use my Martial Arts Cultivation to pressure you."

Shen Siang let out a hearty laugh, then raised his hand and from his sleeve flew out a small golden dragon about two feet long.

The small golden dragon opened its mouth and spat out a sword blade about a foot long, turning into a dragon-shaped Flying Sword.

This item was quite famous, and many in the audience recognized it:

"It’s the ’Longsui Sword’! The Flying Sword of Lu Qi, a scholar of the Yuan Dynasty!"

"A Fourth Grade Flying Sword, full of spiritual essence after years and years, very difficult to deal with!"

The "Longsui Sword" was obviously no ordinary item, and the crowd turned to look at Lu Li’s side.

There, he summoned a Flying Sword with wave-like patterns on its blade, the "Shadow Painting Sword."

The "Shadow Painting Sword" had no legends behind it, and no one recognized it.

In terms of appearance, it didn’t match up to the Longsui Sword’s "Golden Dragon Blade," seemed to be far less powerful?

Shen Siang was very sure of this.

He had found out that when Lu Li killed Ling Gui last month, the grade of his Flying Sword was only mid-low Fifth Grade.

His own Longsui Sword was mid-grade Fourth Grade, a whole major grade higher, and it would take only three moves to cut down the opponent!

Therefore, this time he not only wanted to slap the opponent’s face but also to break the opponent’s Flying Sword to further his own sword’s advancement!

Hence, Shen Siang took the initiative to say:

"Lu Li, I hear you have five Flying Swords, you may call them all out."

Lu Li had six Flying Swords, and adding Wanqing’s it could be said to be seven, but he only exposed five to the outside world.

This fool in front of him wasn’t worth his full effort, so Lu Li casually said:

"I’ll use just one Flying Sword."

Hearing this, those who were hoping for the Dragon Sect felt a cold sweat grip them.

This sword fight was simply unfair; that Azure Dragon had all the advantages behind the scenes.

Xia Weiyun was a bit worried, but after meeting her little man’s calm eyes, she stood by quietly without further comment.

Li Yuanzhong also knew that Lu Li was no ordinary figure, but he inwardly lamented that things were moving in the direction he least wanted.

The old Taoist truly wished to unite all the forces that could be united in order to resolve the great enemy facing Shen Zhou, but alas, such is the unpredictability of life.

Having lived long, he knew well the principle that it’s better to channel than to block. Realizing that interfering now would be inconsequential, he announced loudly:

"Since both parties are interested, let’s have an exchange to liven things up. Sect Master Su, let us work together to erect a barrier to prevent any harm to the guests."

Su Qing nodded indifferently and then, together with the old Taoist, waved their hands to release golden light.

This was the Immortal Will of a Great Grandmaster, now forming an "Inverted Giant Bowl" that enveloped the area as protection.

With everything ready, the two Flying Swords collided with a thunderous clash!

But with a "thunk," a massive shockwave exploded in mid-air, scattering bright points of light.

The "Shadow Painting Sword" took a step back, while the "Longsui Sword" skewed off two steps!

Shen Siang and Su Qing’s expressions changed at the same time:

"Twice the speed of sound! He also has a Fourth Grade Flying Sword!"

"And damn it, it’s Fourth Grade Upper!"

Seeing this turn of events, Xia Weiyun instantly breathed a sigh of relief; her husband indeed had a trump card... it’s just that the advancement of the Flying Sword was too fast!
