Sword Sovereign of the Celestial Emperor-Chapter 914 - 913: Facing Cao Wu Directly

"Qing Hong?"

A look of understanding appeared on Fang Xuanji's face.

Although Cao Wu and Qing Hong are both among the top ten newcomers, there are differences between them. Cao Wu, while not the lowest, ranks around sixth or seventh. With cultivation of an Emperor Level Upper Grade martial art, his ranking might improve, but Qing Hong is undoubtedly second among the newcomers!

The first, naturally, is Black Cat Girl Youmo!

"Has anything happened to the Wild Dragon Association during my absence?"

Cao Wu exhaled deeply, slightly easing the frustration in his heart, then immediately asked Fang Xuanji.

"Yes, some things did happen..."

After a slight hesitation, Fang Xuanji recounted the events regarding the relic!

"Oh? A Sacred Artifact in the relic?"

Upon hearing that a Sacred Artifact exists in the relic, Cao Wu's face turned even more ashen as he regretted deeply not being there. Though he has cultivated the Divine Martial Seal, it is just an Emperor Level Upper Grade martial art, incomparable to a Sacred Artifact. Although entering the relic doesn't guarantee acquiring the artifact!

But he heard Fang Xuanji say that the light orb treasures in the relic range from Middle Grade Emperor Level, each not inferior to the Divine Martial Seal. If he were there, snatching a couple of orbs would have been easy!

"Dare someone seize our Wild Dragon Association's possessions?"

When Fang Xuanji mentioned the incident with Chu Ming, Cao Wu's brow furrowed slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes!

The more he heard, the deeper his brow furrowed.

"Oh? You mean Chu Ming's skill rivals Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang?"

Cao Wu asked.

"That's correct. That day, Chu Ming and Li Fang clashed over an Upper Grade Emperor Level Treasure Sword in the relic, battling for hundreds of rounds without Chu Ming falling behind!"

Fang Xuanji answered truthfully.

"So, Chu Ming possesses the strength of a top ten newcomer!"

Cao Wu felt secretly troubled. Originally, his strength equaled Gui Xuan Sword Li Fang, but now he's cultivated the Divine Martial Seal, and Li Fang has gained treasures in the relic. Now, it's uncertain who is stronger!

Now, there's Chu Ming. If Chu Ming were an ordinary Sealed Saint Level talent, he could suppress him single-handedly. But Chu Ming, impressively matching the top ten newcomers, has strength that rivals his!

This forced him to be cautious!

"It should be that way!"

Though Fang Xuanji didn't want to admit it, Chu Ming's prowess is evident. Denial wouldn't change the facts!

"Let's hold off dealing with Chu Ming for now. The immediate priority is gathering Elemental Power Grass!"

Cao Wu instructed Fang Xuanji!

Rumble!

As Fang Xuanji was about to speak, a violent roar erupted from outside the tent, shaking all of the Wild Dragon Association's tents to their foundation!

"What's happening?"

Fang Xuanji's face turned cold as he scolded the Wild Dragon Association members outside the tent.

"Bad news, Chairman! Someone is attacking us!"

A young man in a green robe ran into the tent looking flustered, his garments tattered!

"What?!"

Fang Xuanji and Cao Wu exchanged a glance, their faces stiff with shock. Soon, their shock was replaced by intense rage!

For the Wild Dragon Association, one of the Five Great Powers, to be attacked like this, would be a laughingstock if word got out!

Today, under no circumstance should this person leave the Wild Dragon Association unscathed!

Both Cao Wu and Fang Xuanji saw the intense killing intent in each other's eyes!

Rumble!

Suddenly, the whole tent began to shake violently, causing Cao Wu and Fang Xuanji's expressions to change!

"Quick, leave! It's going to collapse!!"

Cao Wu's words had barely fallen when the tent abruptly splintered into ruins, burying all three beneath the debris!

...

The Wild Dragon Association base was in chaos. In mid-air, a crimson silhouette stood silently as dozens of young elites surrounded him!

"Chu Ming, what are you doing at our Wild Dragon Association?"

The fourth chair, Iron-faced Gentleman Xiao Leng, coldly demanded.

Confronting Chu Ming, he felt insecure, but knowing Cao Wu had just returned to the Wild Dragon Association reassured him greatly!

"I came to borrow something from you all?"

Chu Ming spoke calmly, his demeanor unchanged even facing the Association's strong members!

"Borrow what?"

Xiao Leng's tone relaxed slightly as he questioned.

"Borrow your Wild Dragon Association's Elemental Power Grass!"

Chu Ming stated nonchalantly.

"Nonsense!!"

As soon as Chu Ming finished, a top Sealed King Level talent couldn't hold back and cursed at him angrily.

Borrow Elemental Power Grass?

Clearly, this was outright theft!

"Chu Ming, you should leave quickly. Though you're strong, this Wild Dragon Association isn't a place for you to act recklessly!"

Xiao Leng slowly said, his words full of threat. If Chu Ming were an ordinary Sealed Saint Level talent, he wouldn't bother talking, he'd have attacked directly!

But since Chu Ming possessed the combat power of a newcomer top expert, despite the past grudges, the Association clearly wouldn't escalate disputes with Chu Ming at this critical moment!

"Leaving isn't an option. I'm here for the Elemental Power Grass, and without it, why should I leave?"

Chu Ming shook his head, speaking lightly as his gaze fell on a spot in the debris!

"I didn't expect your Wild Dragon Association to have a hidden Sealed Saint Level talent!"

Rumble!

On the ground, the ruins shattered, countless rocks transforming into streams of light, blasting in all directions, as three figures emerged, appearing rather disheveled!

"Aren't you a bit too arrogant, sir?"

Standing in the void, Cao Wu and his associates, the terrified member of the Wild Dragon Association hurriedly retreated. To them, the conflict of Sealed Saint Level geniuses was a nightmare!

"You must be Cao Wu?"

Chu Ming recognized Fang Xuanji, and seeing the gray-robed youth, a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he guessed.

"Indeed!"

Cao Wu spoke slowly, observing Chu Ming with a heart full of surprise. Fang Xuanji certainly didn't lie; Chu Ming, merely standing there, exuded an aura not weaker than Li Fang!

"Hand over your Wild Dragon Association's Elemental Power Grass. I'm here for the grass and prefer to avoid bloodshed!"

Chu Ming frowned, speaking coldly. He chose the Wild Dragon Association as his primary target precisely because Cao Wu was absent and the Association was leaderless. Yet unexpectedly, Cao Wu returned at this critical juncture!
