Chapter 331: Chapter 328: Battle with Demon Dragon Young Master Again

Skyfire Hall, in the backyard.

A figure was rapidly flickering back and forth, treading, punching, turning, and repeating the cycle, each punch flowing into the next.

"Dragon Elephant Return to Origin!"

"Six Dragons Revolving!"

"Dragon Form, Crane Shadow!"

The first three moves of Dragon Essence Palm, Ye Xuan had mostly mastered to perfection, whether it was diagrammed in sequence or reversed, it was seamless. Combined with his movement technique, it was like adding wings to a tiger.

Ye Xuan was presently practicing a movement technique known as Taiching Spirit Void Step. This technique was worlds apart from the Wave-Treading Body Move he had practiced before—completely different in calibre. Although it wasn’t ranked as Heavenly Grade Top Stage, it was considered top-tier among Heavenly Grade movement martial arts. Combined with the formidable Dragon Essence Palm, its power enhanced further.

After all, in combat, the opponent wasn’t a mere wooden stake standing still for you to hit. The power of Fist Skill was one aspect, but how to accurately hit the opponent ensuring the force was transmitted onto the opponent was another matter entirely.

"Dragon Without a Leader!"

Ye Xuan landed in front of a large tree, then immediately bombarded with both fists simultaneously. Instantly, eight True Qi Light Dragons swept across, each one bearing the same powerful aura, majestically spreading in a fan-shaped surge, ravaging a large area in front of him into utter ruins.

The fourth move, Dragon Without a Leader, was already the second-level technique of Dragon Essence Palm, undoubtedly more powerful than the first level’s three moves. If mastered proficiently, it could become even more formidable.

At this moment, having witnessed the power of the fourth technique, Ye Xuan felt there was no need to carelessly execute the fifth technique, Dragon Desolate Wilderness. It was a bit too consuming at present, so he decided to rest for a while.

Just then, a noisy commotion suddenly came from outside the Skyfire Hall. Shortly after, Yu Yi and Little Xi appeared before him.

"What’s happening outside?"

Ye Xuan knew something must have happened as the surroundings of Skyfire Hall were usually quiet; such a disturbance wouldn’t arise without reason.

"It’s Long Guihai, that guy. He has come menacingly with quite a few people, claiming he wants to challenge you again," Yu Yi said somewhat discontentedly about the incident from a few days ago, speaking in a chilling tone.

Long Guihai was the real name of Demon Dragon Young Master, who had been cultivating intensely after his defeat to Ye Xuan, aiming to reclaim the position of the young generation’s leader of Sky Demon Mountain.

"Oh?"

Ye Xuan slightly stunned, then shook his head, "Can I refuse?"

A month ago, Long Guihai was not even his match, and now a month had passed, Ye Xuan had visited the Demon Transformation Pool and greatly enhanced his strength; the opponent was even less of a match for him now.

This battle wouldn’t be interesting at all.

"I’m afraid you can’t. Long Guihai has deliberately made a big scene this time, even many Elders have been alerted. If you do not respond, Long Guihai will definitely propagate that you are too scared to fight him. Even your victory in the Talent Supremacy Tournament may be deemed a fluke, just luck," Yu Yi stressed her point.

"That so? Well, let him propagate then. I really don’t care."

Ye Xuan still seemed uninterested and had no intention of meeting Long Guihai for a fight.

"You don’t care?"

Yu Yi grew displeased, "How can you not care? If you don’t fight, everyone will think you are cowardly, and various rumors will arise. You might bear it, but I can’t."

"Why can’t you bear it?"

Ye Xuan was taken aback. Even if all sorts of rumors and scandals were directed at him, what did it have to do with Yu Yi?

"I..."

Yu Yi didn’t know how to reply, only shooting Ye Xuan a sharp glare, "I worry you’ll shame Skyfire Hall by not realizing what’s best. Forget it, I don’t care what you do."

"Young Master, Yu Yi is just worried about those people outside maligning and tarnishing your reputation. She was even about to have a conflict with someone just now."

At that moment, Little Xi suddenly spoke up, glancing at Yu Yi and then speaking in a slightly gentle tone.

"Is that so?"

Ye Xuan looked at Yu Yi in surprise, but she turned her head away, unwilling to meet his gaze, seemingly still harboring some resentment.

"You two, when did your relationship become this good?"

These two women standing there talking, Ye Xuan was secretly puzzled. Initially, at the Black Market auction, Yu Yi had vehemently obstructed him from buying Little Xi. How had she become so cordial now?

It seemed a bit strange...

Yu Yi felt Ye Xuan’s somewhat doubtful gaze and couldn’t help but want to beat him up. Couldn’t this guy think better of her for once?

"Ye Xuan, are you even a man? If you are, come out and fight. Don’t be a coward!"

"Exactly, are you afraid of losing to the Demon Dragon Young Master and losing your top position? With such little courage, you aspire to dominate our generation of Sky Demon Mountain?"

At that moment, outside the Skyfire Hall, the noisy sounds grew louder until they infiltrated unreservedly.

"These guys are indeed a bit annoying."

Ye Xuan couldn’t help but shake his head, realizing that even if he didn’t want to fight, the situation probably wouldn’t allow it.

"Let’s go and take a look."

Waving at the two women, Ye Xuan walked towards the door.

Once the trio stepped out of the Skyfire Hall, they faced the terrifying crowd gathered outside, resembling the start of a major event. Young Master Blood Python, Young Master Hu, and others were strikingly present. Their gazes fixed on Ye Xuan with a hint of hostility.

On their way here, they had learned that this time, the Demon Dragon Young Master intended to redeem his previous shame and wanted to battle with Ye Xuan again. This time, he was fully confident he could defeat Ye Xuan and reclaim his lost honor.

They had come to enjoy the sight of Ye Xuan being trampled on.

Ye Xuan coming out of the Skyfire Hall undeniably caused a stir, and the promise of an intriguing spectacle was up next.

Standing amongst the throng was a black-robed youth, his aura surpassing the others significantly, making the rest seem shorter by comparison. His presence was as outstanding as a crane amongst chickens, earning the admiration of those lesser demons.

However, in Ye Xuan’s eyes, this aura was nothing of consequence.

"You were defeated under my hand, what courage do you have to speak of?"

Staring at the black-robed Demon Dragon Young Master, Ye Xuan’s expression was indifferent, his eyes calm and his tone flat.

Although Ye Xuan’s eight words were exceedingly plain, they were extraordinarily harsh to the Demon Dragon Young Master. His complexion grew slightly ugly, and he soon scoffed, "Hmph! You only won once. Do you think you can stay ahead of me forever? Losing to you in last month’s competition was the greatest humiliation of my life, and now I intend to reclaim it myself."

"I’m afraid you won’t have that chance." Ye Xuan merely glanced at the Demon Dragon Young Master. Despite the almost imperceptible fluctuations around him, each word he spoke seemed to contain an inherent arrogance—at least in Sky Demon Mountain’s younger generation, only Ye Xuan dared to speak such words to the Demon Dragon Young Master, and only he had the authority to do so.

Yet, feeling the tangible and intangible dominance emanating from Ye Xuan, Young Master Blood Python and Young Master Hu felt quite displeased. In their eyes, Ye Xuan was like a nouveau riche who had climbed too quickly, unbalancing them every time they saw him. Logically, such honor should have belonged to them.

"Let’s see after the fight then, Ye Xuan. I challenge you now, do you dare to accept?"

The Demon Dragon Young Master narrowed his eyes. He had come prepared, so why not let Ye Xuan be arrogant for a while? After the battle, the outcome would speak for itself.

"Why wouldn’t I? Since you’re so confident, even if I refuse, you won’t let it go. So let’s do as you wish."

Since Ye Xuan had come out, he was ready for battle. If he hadn’t entered the Demon Transformation Pool, perhaps the outcome might be uncertain, but now, there was no suspense.

No matter what special training the Demon Dragon Young Master had undergone, his odds of winning were slim.

"Very well, this place isn’t suited for a battle. Let’s change locations!"

Seeing Ye Xuan accepting the challenge, the Demon Dragon Young Master’s smile turned up slightly. He had been worried that Ye Xuan might not fight. If that were the case, no matter how much he slandered or caused trouble, it wouldn’t change the fact that he had lost to Ye Xuan before. But now, the opportunity had arrived.

The location for their fight moved to a back mountain in Huoyou Peak. This mountain’s clearing was vast, and there were no concerns about damaging the venue, allowing them to fight to their heart’s content.

The large crowd of onlookers naturally followed, not wanting to miss such an exciting battle.

Both figures stood atop a large tree, facing each other with a powerful aura compressing together, twisting the air between them into a squealing strain, as if it were about to buckle.

Whoosh!

Shortly after the battle began, terrifying demonic power burst from within the Demon Dragon Young Master. He transformed into his demonic form right from the start, his overwhelming pressure radiating in all directions. Sparse trees on the low mountain were instantly uprooted, tossed about, and stones scattered in the wind.

In contrast to the Demon Dragon Young Master’s fierce aura, Ye Xuan was like an undisturbed ancient well, his hands behind his back, partaking both in the solidity of a mountain and the depth of a deep pool. The storm of demonic power brought by the Demon Dragon Young Master couldn’t get close, blocked by his aura outside.

The two men’s auras, entirely different, each occupying half of the sky, divided as distinctly as heaven and hell.

People witnessing this scene couldn’t help but discuss eagerly.

"Terrifying. The Demon Dragon Young Master’s aura has indeed improved a lot since a month ago. He truly deserves to be called a super genius with rapid improvement."

"So what? Haven’t you seen Ye Xuan? No matter how strong the Demon Dragon Young Master’s aura is, it can’t affect Ye Xuan. Over this month, Ye Xuan wouldn’t have remained stagnant."

"Since both are improving, it’s a matter of who has advanced more. I’m more optimistic about the Demon Dragon Young Master. He has the Innate Supreme Demon Dragon Bloodline and therefore a greater potential."

"Is that so? I tend to lean towards Ye Xuan. But what we think doesn’t matter; who is stronger and who is weaker will only be known after the fight."
