The people of Yun ng City looked up at the figure sitting cross-legged in the sky, filled with emotions.
If not for this battle, the talents of Mr. Qu might still be unknown.
The saying "great hermits hide in the city" perhaps refers to Mr. Qu.
While the world loves to flaunt their power, Mr. Qu is quite the opposite.
However, Qu Qingfeng didn’t have much emotion; Xue Laoguai was already wounded by Sword Intent before being slain by him; otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy.
Moreover, the true opponent today was actually not Xue Laoguai, but Bailong.
Bailong’s strength far surpassed Xue Laoguai.
And Bailong was different from Xue Laoguai; he had true pride embedded in his nature. Even though Xue Laoguai bragged, he never dared to face soone directly, always waiting for the right mont to strike.
Bailong was different; when Xue Laoguai wanted to take advantage of the situation, Bailong stepped back just in ti, allowing him to kill Xue Laoguai.
He had absolute confidence in his own strength.
Demon Race true dragon, noble in bloodline, naturally Bailong had such confidence.
He glanced down towards Qu Qingfeng and then at Li Fan; he was not surprised by Qu Qingfeng’s strength. In the battle with Qu Qingfeng, he found the other’s comprehension of Dao to be unparalleled, capable of turning decay into magic; though constrained by talent, he managed to harness his power to the fullest.
As for Li Fan...
The Sword Intent left by several human Great Sword Cultivators on him revealed his extraordinary identity.
Nevertheless, no matter who Li Fan was.
He was still the person he wanted to take away.
"Sir, after fighting a battle, I’m afraid you cannot stop ," Bailong said, holding a dragon spear, looking towards Qu Qingfeng.
"We won’t know until we try," Qu Qingfeng responded.
"Your Silence Technique is extraordinary, turning the power of the Great Dao into your own. However, it is still not strong enough; absolute power can break the bindings of the Silence Technique. Even if it affects , it won’t be by much," Bailong continued, "Moreover, with my physical defense, it would be difficult for you to break; and my spear technique, the mont a spear lands upon you..."
That ans, a dead end.
Qu Qingfeng knew Bailong spoke the truth; the innate talents of the dragon clan were too strong. Their bodies covered in dragon scales, impenetrable physical defenses, and possessing imnse power. Bailong also mastered spear techniques, embedding that absolute power into the spear. If he got hit, he wouldn’t die but would be severely injured.
"As for your Sword Intent, while it can threaten him, it’s of no use to ," Bailong then looked at Li Fan with confidence.
As powerful as Sword Intent may be, it was just a Sword Intent.
If a Great Sword Cultivator were here in person, he might have so fears. If he was daunted by a Sword Intent, he wouldn’t deserve to inherit the blood of a demon dragon.
"Why does Yun ng Swamp want ?" Li Fan looked at Bailong and asked, knowing it had sothing to do with the demons within him but unsure of the exact reason.
"Don’t know," Bailong replied, decisions made by the Demon Saint; he was only responsible for carrying them out, and he was to bring Li Fan back.
As for anything else, he was also unaware.
Which ant, no one knew what the consequences would be when Li Fan reached Yun ng Swamp.
Qu Qingfeng of course understood this too, his Dharma Form towering, mana roaring and surging, his body floating upwards, sitting cross-legged high in the sky.
"Bailong, make your move," Qu Qingfeng said loudly.
"Sir, why bother," Bailong remarked.
"Humans and demons are different paths; you are a demon from Yun ng Swamp, and I am at Bai Lu Academy. Now, demons from Yun ng Swamp have co into the academy to take people; how could I agree?" Qu Qingfeng stated, "If you want to take him away, you will have to step over my corpse."
"Very well, my respects to you, sir."
Bailong extended his hand, the long spear in hand, with strands of blood-red light like crimson lightning, emanating a terrifying aura.
"Though I am a demon, I also study human thods. eting you today has been quite enlightening," Bailong moved his long spear, the blood-red lightning flickering along the spear, and before even attacking, the crowd below already felt a suffocating and destructive power.
The flickering, blood-red lightning was captivating.
The thunderbolts from the sky fell, landing on Bailong, and this ti Bailong didn’t even dodge. Using his dragon body to withstand the thundering Dao techniques, his dragon scales covered him like blood-red armor, his eyes emanating a captivating demon glow.
The crowd gazed up at the sky, the descending thunder like a tribulation, but Bailong didn’t dodge or evade, his mighty physical power despairing to witness.
Compared to Bailong, though Xue Laoguai was also in the Seven Realms, he seed insignificant.
Li Fan also felt deeply, seeing that no matter which realm of cultivator it was, there were differences in strength; just like his own Soul Ergence Realm, although in the sa realm, his combat power was far superior to ordinary ones.
This Bailong belonged to the top combat power in the initial stage of the Seven Realms.
For the master to be able to battle Bailong was already comndable.
Bailong’s innate talent was too overwhelming.
Such a body, humans would find hard to surpass; perhaps only an anomaly like Brother Huang might have a chance.
This also confird what Bailong said, his Sword Intent couldn’t threaten Bailong.
Bailong’s body might even fully withstand a Sword Intent.
"Bailong."
As Bailong was about to make his move, he heard Li Fan call out.
Bailong paused his step, looking down at Li Fan.
"I will go with you to Yun ng Swamp," Li Fan said.
"No..." Qu Qingfeng firmly refused as he looked at Li Fan.
Li Fan looked at the master, showing a slight smile, bowed towards the figure high above in the sky. During their ti together, he had already admired the master greatly.
Today’s battle made him revere even more.
This was originally his own matter, yet the master stood in front for him, even at the cost of fighting to the death, so much that even Bailong respected the master’s righteousness.
But the more so, the less Li Fan could watch this happen.
Mr. Qu fought to the death for him.
How could he possibly watch the master fight to the death?
"Your righteousness, master, would put into unrighteousness," Li Fan spoke, and as Qu Qingfeng hesitated, he continued, "If I were to watch you fight for , how would I deserve for you to fight for ?"
This sentence, though sowhat awkward, was instantly understood by everyone.
Bailong was also taken aback, not expecting Li Fan to speak such profound words; humans were indeed peculiar.
Mr. Qu could fight, but Li Fan couldn’t watch Mr. Qu fight to the death.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t be worthy of Mr. Qu fighting for him.
"This is what I should do," Qu Qingfeng replied.
Li Fan shook his head, "This is not what you should do, master."
No one should do anything for anyone else.
"You educate the world, impart wisdom, influencing more people in the future. They will inherit your will; if you fight to the death for this, it would be sowhat outdated," Li Fan said.
Qu Qingfeng looked at Li Fan; it was the first ti soone called him outdated.
"Moreover, I see that although Bailong is a demon, he also has integrity. Since he says he doesn’t know why he is taking , there might be room for negotiation, and even if I enter Yun ng Swamp, I might not necessarily be in trouble."
Li Fan continued.
Moreover, he still had his strongest card undealt.
If the demons really wanted his life in Yun ng Swamp... then it would see if their demons were stronger than Wang Daoxuan.
If they wanted his life, it wouldn’t be that easy.
"If you have such righteousness, master, don’t put the student into unrighteousness," Li Fan bowed again to Qu Qingfeng and then looked at Bailong, "Bailong, I will go with you to Yun ng Swamp."
Bailong indeed viewed Li Fan differently, the dragon scales on him faded, and a hint of amusent appeared in his eyes.
This master and student were really interesting.
"In that case, it’s certainly the best," Bailong said; he hadn’t wanted to kill Qu Qingfeng either.
But if Qu Qingfeng insisted on blocking him, he would have no choice but to kill.
"Then, let’s go," Li Fan said calmly.
"Very well," Bailong responded, the Peacock Demon King flickered, taking Li Fan towards the sky, and the demon kings moved upwards, gathering below Bailong.
"Why must it be so?" Qu Qingfeng looked at Li Fan.
Li Fan didn’t say much, bowing for the third ti to Qu Qingfeng, "Farewell, master."
"Until we et again, sir," Bailong smiled and, with those words, took Li Fan away.
Below, Lu Yuan stepped forward, looking towards Li Fan.
Li Fan lowered his head to see her, smiled and nodded, as if comforting her.
In an instant, Bailong took him far away.
Lu Yuan looked at his departing figure, her eyes slightly wet.
She rembered again the boy who had suffered so much on Li Mountain.
Back on Li Mountain, he was the sa.
The breeze brushed by, swirling her long hair.
Li Mountain, should know by now.
Yun ng City, suddenly beca especially quiet; no one spoke, and everyone stared blankly at the departing figure with very complex feelings in their hearts.
This was the Li Mountain Sword Cultivator.
Ji Xue stood among the crowd; so people suddenly appeared, dazzling the ti, yet abruptly exited like this, leaving her heart feeling empty, oppressed, and uncomfortable.
In the sky.
Qu Qingfeng’s Dharma Form vanished, he stood up straight, looked into the distance, and suddenly smiled brightly, sighed softly, "Young Sword Cultivator, already has the temperant."
A boy like this shouldn’t et such a fate.
With a step, Qu Qingfeng returned to Bai Lu Academy.
Within the academy, besides the academy masters, there were only Aunt i and Lu Yuan left.
The academy masters looked at Qu Qingfeng, speechless in their hearts.
They were naturally delighted Qu Qingfeng was unhard, but Li Fan’s departure made them feel like they had lost sothing.
That boy was truly dazzling.
Qu Qingfeng landed in the ruined courtyard, Aunt i looked at him, only to hear Qu Qingfeng laugh, "You never ntioned Yun ng Swamp to before. If I wanted to go, could you take there?"
"You want to go deep into Yun ng Swamp?" Aunt i was shocked.
Qu Qingfeng smiled and nodded, "Today, Xiao Fan also taught a lesson. As an academy master, I cannot be outdone by a student; otherwise, wouldn’t it be sowhat embarrassing?"
