"You..."

Mo Youu heard this and furrowed his brow immediately.

"Brother, why continue talking with this scoundrel?" Mo Youh sneered.

"This scoundrel is just playing you."

Mo Youu shook his head, "I trust Brother Yi’s reputation enough to not play tricks on me."

"However." Mo Youu stared directly at Xiao Yi.

"If you want my younger sister’s life, it’s absolutely impossible."

"How about this..."

Clang... A resounding clang echoed through the air.

A sharp sword was grasped in Mo Youu’s hand.

"Brother Yi, let’s have a duel."

"If I win, I hope you can give me face and let this go with my sister."

"Of course, what I promised you before, I will still honor."

"Whether it’s a gift or an apology, I’m willing to comply."

Mo Youu was very clear that under Yi Xiao’s current renown, those who were targeted by him rarely survived.

Even evil cultivators, despite being secretive and having mysterious methods, still couldn’t escape Yi Xiao’s pursuit.

Much less his sister?

For this reason, he hoped to resolve it this way.

However, in his words, he only mentioned what would happen if he won; he didn’t say a word about what would happen if he lost.

Clearly, Mo Youu was full of confidence.

He didn’t dare claim much, but among the younger generation’s heavenly talents and monsters, he never feared anyone.

"Make your move." Xiao Yi spoke briefly.

"Alright, straightforward." Mo Youu nodded.

Clang...

Astounding Sword Intent exploded from Mo Youu’s sword, then swept through the sky.

This sword was merely Mo Youu wielding his sword, pointing directly at Xiao Yi.

This sword hadn’t truly been swung yet, it was merely Sword Intent brewing.

Boom...

The flames on Xiao Yi’s body were unexpectedly annihilated under the Sword Intent in an instant.

Thump... Thump... Thump...

Xiao Yi staggered backward several steps.

Around, the wounded and fallen Academy Elders were shocked, "What astonishing battle spirit."

"Forget Sorrow Sword Mo Youu, to already have this level of strength?"

Lin Xinghe squinted his eyes, "This one’s cultivation hasn’t reached our level."

"But in terms of the sharpness of Sword Intent, his Sword Dao understanding and prowess are already not to be underestimated."

Lin Xinghe, once the Family Head of the Lin Family in the Sword Domain, achieved fame over two thousand years ago as a supreme sword cultivator.

His insight was incredibly astute.

His mastery of the Star-cutting Sword Dao was incredibly profound and mysterious.

Even he showed a look of amazement, praising him, so it’s easy to imagine the current level of Mo Youu’s Sword Dao.

Boom...

Flames on Xiao Yi’s body erupted once more.

"Supreme 9994 Dao Cultivation."

Xiao Yi nodded indifferently, easily discerning Mo Youu’s cultivation.

Indeed, Mo Youu’s cultivation alone reached Supreme 9994 Dao.

In terms of cultivation, he was on par with Shui Ninghan.

But just in that moment of pointing the sword, that overwhelming Sword Intent, Xiao Yi could judge that the strength Mo Youu could unleash absolutely far exceeded Shui Ninghan.

"Brother Yi, are you prepared?" Mo Youu asked in a deep voice, his face bursting with battle spirit, yet also grave.

Though confident, he wouldn’t be careless.

Yi Xiao’s battle records were right there.

The surrounding Academy Elders were injured and fallen, clearly visible.

Almost as soon as he landed, Mo Youu was aware that Yi Xiao was very strong.

Without any accidents, this would be the strongest rival among the heavenly talent monsters he had ever encountered.

"Make your move." Xiao Yi still spoke indifferently.

"Alright." Mo Youu nodded and struck instantly.

The Forget Sorrow Sword in his hand emitted an astonishing black brilliance.

Within the black brilliance, shadows of swords overlapped.

Xiao Yi stared at the incoming sword, feeling his vision blur, unable to discern which were Sword Shadows and which was the real sword.

Xiao Yi frowned slightly and punched out.

The fist directly targeted the Sword Shadows.

However, the expected explosion didn’t occur.

The incoming black brilliance and Sword Shadows flashed by.

The fist Xiao Yi punched out seemed as though it were striking air.

At this time, Mo Youu’s sword split from under Xiao Yi’s fist, stabbing directly forward.

Xiao Yi reacted extremely quickly, stepping back just in time to dodge.

The sharp sword tip narrowly passed by his neck, and the Purple Flame on his neck dissipated instantly. 𝙛𝒓𝓮𝒆𝔀𝒆𝙗𝓷𝒐𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝓸𝓶

If he had been a step slower, failing to dodge this sword, he would have been seriously injured by now.

"Impressive, truly my brother." Not far away, Mo Youh laughed proudly.

"What Purple Flame Yi Xiao, what twin talents, defeated in just one exchange?"

Around, the various Academy Elders also looked shocked, "Truly worthy of Forget Sorrow Sword Mo Youu."

"Truly worthy of the monster who suppressed our Twelve Peaks’ Chief over a decade ago."

"The champion of the Hundred Schools Competition, truly lives up to the name."

Lin Xinghe nodded in satisfaction, "This Illusion Sword technique was truly remarkable."

"Such a formidable figure like Yi Xiao nearly couldn’t withstand it..."

However, before Lin Xinghe could finish speaking.

On Xiao Yi’s side.

Crack...

Xiao Yi’s Beast Hand suddenly grasped the Forget Sorrow Sword.

The sword emitted extreme black brilliance, piercingly sharp, incomparably formidable.

But the sword tip, the sword body, couldn’t affect the Beast Hand in the slightest.

Xiao Yi’s hand held it tightly.

Mo Youu subconsciously tried to retract the sword, only to find he couldn’t move it a bit.

"Such strength." Mo Youu furrowed his brow.

"Holding my Forget Sorrow Sword barehanded? Impressive."

"I’m not interested in wasting time with you." Xiao Yi shook his head indifferently.

Crack...

Xiao Yi’s Beast Hand grasped forcefully.

The Forget Sorrow Sword snapped instantly.

"You..." Mo Youu furrowed his brow, a trickle of blood appearing at the corner of his mouth.

This sword was his Martial Soul.

Being forcibly broken, he naturally suffered backlash.

However, being able to forcibly break his Forget Sorrow Sword Martial Soul wasn’t something an ordinary strength could achieve.

"Despicable." Not far away, Mo Youh shouted coldly.

"Yi Xiao, is this the only lowly tactic you can employ?"

Xiao Yi ignored him, merely looking directly at Mo Youu, "Use your strongest sword."

"As you wish." Mo Youu nodded.

"Holy Annihilation Sword."

Mo Youu’s sword suddenly changed.

A terrifying annihilation aura emanated from the sword.

The sword, once relentless and sharp, immensely fierce.

Now, combined with this annihilation aura.

This sword would undoubtedly be unstoppable, almost nothing could withstand it.

"Such a strong sword." In the distance, Lin Xinghe’s feeling was the most direct.

"This sword, even I can’t block it."

"Holy Annihilation Sword?" Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes.

If he remembered correctly, after he passed the Cloud Ascending Path back then, the Vice Dean informed him there would be a great reward.

And not long after, Senior Luoo gave him two cultivation techniques.

One of them was the Sacred Erasure Palm.

And Sacred Erasure Palm was the most powerful martial technique from Black Cloud Academy.

Xiao Yi had comprehended the Sacred Erasure Palm but had not dedicated more time to cultivating it.

Unexpectedly, there was also a Holy Annihilation Sword.

With Xiao Yi’s current insight, he could clearly see that the Holy Annihilation Sword’s level far surpassed the Sacred Erasure Palm.

Clang...

Mo Youu’s sword struck instantly.

The sword was as fast as the extreme; the annihilation aura reached Xiao Yi’s throat almost in an instant.

However, when the sword was only an inch from Xiao Yi’s throat, it went no further.

The sword body was once again grasped by the Beast Hand.

That astonishing annihilation aura also struggled to affect the Beast Hand.

"You have lost." Xiao Yi said indifferently.

"You..." Mo Youu’s face changed dramatically.

Crack... Boom...

Xiao Yi’s hand clenched, the Forget Sorrow Sword and the annihilation aura dissipating completely.

With a punch, Mo Youu spat out a mouthful of blood, being blasted back a hundred meters.

In the high sky.

A figure suddenly appeared out of thin air.

The figure, with cold eyes, looked directly down at Xiao Yi below.

The figure slowly extended a hand, about to press down but suddenly stopped.

The figure glanced at a short distance away.

In the high sky, three figures were watching him.

...

Second Update.
