Immortal Starry Sky-Chapter 628 - 603: Let Me Try

The strength of Yun Juan Feng You was widely known, except for those who had truly reached the Ancient Spirit Realm. Anyone below that realm would dare to provoke him?

Besides, they were also somewhat aware of Yun Juan Feng You's "reputation."

With Yun Juan Feng You's vengeful nature, the fact that he fancied Copper Medicine Yerong essentially made her his woman. If they tried to take her away, wouldn't that be opposing Yun Juan Feng You?

Opposing Yun Juan Feng You is no different from opposing the entire Yun Juan clan.

They couldn't provoke this formidable force!

"Shudong Qing, don't you like me? If you beat him, I'll agree to marry you!"

Copper Medicine Yerong's cold brows rose, her alabaster fingers pointing directly at a young man among the crowd.

This person was indeed Shudong Qing of the Shudong family, one of the four major clans.

He hesitated deeply, his expression shifting unpredictably.

As Copper Medicine Yerong said, he indeed liked her very much, but this was a world where only the strong were respected. Without enough strength, no matter how much he liked her, he had no right to compete with the strong for a woman.

Shudong Qing's eyes flickered for a moment, and finally, he shook his head: "Copper Medicine Yerong, don't be willful. Brother Feng You has already defeated you. You should accept your loss."

"Shudong Qing, you're just a coward!" Copper Medicine Yerong cursed angrily.

She then shifted her gaze and pointed at another young and handsome man.

"Nankong Yuanliang, what about you?"

The Nankong clan was also one of the four major clans in Copper Medicine City, and Nankong Yuanliang, born into the Nankong clan, was considered one of the outstanding young descendants, with strength comparable to Shudong Qing.

He had also expressed his fondness for Copper Medicine Yerong, but that was for the sake of his clan.

The City Lord of Copper Medicine controlled a vast area extending millions of miles, with the most formidable forces and abundant resources. Countless prominent families wished to enter this circle. The Nankong clan deliberately had Nankong Yuanliang approach Copper Medicine Yerong for development.

"Miss Yerong, please don't tease me. You are Brother Feng You's woman, how dare I lay a finger on you?" Nankong Yuanliang laughed.

"Shameless scoundrel!"

Subsequently, Copper Medicine Yerong asked almost every young man from prestigious families present.

The answer was clear: no one was willing to offend Yun Juan Feng You under these circumstances.

"A bunch of cowards! Cowards!" Copper Medicine Yerong felt helpless and cursed in fury, her anger exacerbating her injuries, causing her to cough up blood.

"Yerong, you're injured. It's best to follow the City Lord back to the manor to recuperate."

Yun Juan Feng You was secretly delighted that no one dared to challenge, but he didn't forget to show concern for Copper Medicine Yerong.

"Don't act like a cat crying over a dead mouse. Even if I die, I'll never marry you!"

Copper Medicine Yerong flung her hand in anger and turned to leave.

At this moment—

"Wait, I'd like to give it a try."

A hand was raised high above, and the sudden voice drew countless gazes.

Everyone was astonished, their minds suddenly questioning:

Who in their right mind would defy such a massive taboo? Isn't this seeking death?

Everyone turned their heads.

"Hahaha..."

When they saw the challenger, there erupted a burst of laughter.

Ugly.

So ugly.

This face was, in some respects, even more "hideous" than a fierce beast!

The laughter spread through the crowd, and the people on the platform, including Copper Medicine Yerong and Yun Juan Feng You, couldn't miss it.

"Hahaha..." Yun Juan Feng You couldn't help but laugh as well.

Copper Medicine Yerong and the City Lord, however, frowned.

Wang Xu, engulfed by mocking laughter and gazes, remained unfazed, surveying the crowd before continuing: "I am Tai Xu, I wish to step onto the platform for a challenge."

"Stop making jokes. With that face, better go home and cover it with a cloth and come back!"

"Truly, ignorance knows no fear these days. Even if you want to marry the City Lord's daughter, at least come out with a decent appearance, and yet... haha..."

"Don't be so harsh in your words. Can't you see? This is deliberate. This way, he might scare people to death without even fighting and win without effort!"

"Hahaha..."

Wang Xu's words brought on a barrage of taunts.

With his ugly appearance and unremarkable realm strength, he was judged by all to be nothing more than a clown trying to stir up trouble without even stepping onto the platform.

If it were a typical person, they would surely be enraged, shouting and fighting, or leaving without looking back.

But how strong was Wang Xu's mindset? How could mere words possibly bring him down?

"Are you... sure you want to challenge?" Copper Medicine Yerong asked again, puzzled.

"I wish to give it a try," Wang Xu nodded.

Copper Medicine Yerong took a deep breath, a flash of hesitation in her beautiful eyes: "Alright, since you want to challenge, come on up! But let me warn you in advance, once you step onto the Martial Platform, life and death are your own responsibility. Don't say I didn't remind you."

"I understand!"

Wang Xu smiled slightly, but to everyone else, his smile was even more unpleasant than crying, provoking another burst of laughter.

Amidst the laughter, Wang Xu ascended the Martial Platform.

"Kid, you're brave," Yun Juan Feng You said, seeing Wang Xu stand before him, with a flash of malice in his eyes.

If not for Wang Xu's interference, this absurd marriage by martial arts should have concluded already, but due to his appearance, Yun Juan Feng You had to expend a bit more time and effort.

Moreover, what made Yun Juan Feng You displeased was that, while everyone else chose to retreat, this person still decided to make a move. Clearly, this person didn't take Yun Juan Feng You seriously and was even provoking his authority!

Against such a person, Yun Juan Feng You never showed mercy.

"Likewise, likewise," Wang Xu said coolly.

"City Lord."

Yun Juan Feng You looked at the City Lord of Copper Medicine City, "Since Ye Rong is unconvinced, let's follow her wish and continue the duel. As long as anyone can defeat me, I will yield this victor's seat."

"Fine." The City Lord of Copper Medicine City gave Yun Juan Feng You and Wang Xu a deep look and nodded.

Copper Medicine Ye Rong retreated below the martial platform, and the duel resumed.

However, this time, the opponent was not the bride-seeking Copper Medicine Ye Rong herself, but two challengers.

"Brother, you seem unfamiliar. I guess you are not from Copper Medicine City," Yun Juan Feng You didn't rush to make a move but instead asked with flickering eyes.

"I come from the Third Layer."

When Wang Xu said this, it immediately caused a moment of commotion among the people below.

Copper Medicine Ye Rong, the City Lord of Copper Medicine City, and others also couldn't help but give Wang Xu another glance.

It's well known that although the Third Layer and the Second Layer can communicate and travel freely, only a few dare leave the Third Layer and enter the Second Layer.

To put it simply, Wang Xu, with his realm of three Ganges River True Spirits, would be considered an elder-level figure in the Third Layer.

But in the Second Layer, Ganges River True Spirits are almost everywhere, and he loses all advantage, becoming like an ordinary person.

The impact of such a huge contrast can well be imagined.

"The Third Layer? Indeed brave!" Yun Juan Feng You sneered. "No wonder I say people from the Third Layer are so despicable. Now it seems they're not only despicable but also unaware of their limits."

Yun Juan Feng You was blatantly insulting Wang Xu.

Wang Xu remained unmoved.

"Despicable or unaware, try it, and you'll know." He gave another "hideous" smile.

"Try it? I'm afraid you won't want to see the result!"

Yun Juan Feng You's tone became vicious, and his eyes burst with a furious intent to kill.

Step.

His foot lightly touched the ground, and his figure shot out like a spring, thrusting the treasure sword in his hand.

This strike, although Yun Juan Feng You didn't use the power of any secret technique, was more than enough to handle an average True Spirit Realm individual.

Unfortunately, Yun Juan Feng You had encountered Wang Xu this time!

A person who could easily slay even the clan leader of the Ancient Spirit Fusheng Clan could not be pierced by someone like him with strength comparable to an Ancient Spirit Realm warrior.

Wang Xu sidestepped, and Yun Juan Feng You's treasure sword grazed past his chest.

"What? He actually dodged it!" Yun Juan Feng You's pupils shrank, and his heart was startled.

But as the foremost of the younger generation in Copper Medicine City, his reaction was swift. Seeing that the strike didn't pierce Wang Xu, he twisted the hand holding the sword, directing the blade towards Wang Xu's chest and swept fiercely!

Sizzle.

Blood splattered, and as the two touched, they quickly retreated. On Wang Xu's chest, a sinister wound was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Hmph! Is that all your power?" Seeing Wang Xu wounded, Yun Juan Feng You roughly gauged Wang Xu's strength and, full of confidence, sneered.

Wang Xu's expression remained unchanged.

This strike, he deliberately took it.

One was to make Yun Juan Feng You underestimate him, the other to conceal his true strength.

"Die!"

Yun Juan Feng You shouted angrily, wielding the treasure sword once more.

Wang Xu kept dodging repeatedly, his movements seeming a bit panicked, making it look like he was using all his strength to evade Yun Juan Feng You's offensive, with no power to retaliate.

For a moment, the atmosphere became tense, Copper Medicine Ye Rong frowned, her small hand tightly clenched.

"Your body technique is quite nimble! But I don't want to keep entangling with you. Prepare to die!"

Yun Juan Feng You stepped back, and his aura suddenly became incredibly sharp.

"Roll!"

Countless Constant Spirits gathered and formed on Yun Juan Feng You's treasure sword, transforming into the shadow of a sword wind.

"The Ganges Realm's secret technique... This is the first time I'm witnessing it. I have to feel the power of the secret technique firsthand!" Wang Xu's eyes lit up.

He had traversed many tribes in the Third Layer yet never encountered a secret technique before.

Now, finally able to experience it firsthand, Wang Xu was naturally excited.

"Die!"

With an angry shout from Yun Juan Feng You, he swung his hand fiercely, and the violent shadow of the sword wind rushed towards Wang Xu at a speed invisible to the naked eye.

Facing this secret technique attack, Wang Xu did not draw any weapon but instead blasted out his palm.

Bang!

Only to hear a loud boom.

Wang Xu's palm suddenly exploded, blood splattering, yet he felt no pain at all; his palm quickly healed and recovered.

In contrast, Yun Juan Feng You's sword wind shadow completely vanished, and even the forceful wind had entirely dissipated.

"Is that all the power?"

Wang Xu said disappointedly. (To be continued. If you like this work, feel free to vote for it on Qidian (qidian.com), your recommendation and monthly votes are my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.com.)
