Chapter 621: Chapter 615 After the Battle

"This is... the aura of the Demon Clan!"

Someone in the crowd exclaimed.

"It’s an Ancient Bronze Demon from the Demon Clan! This man actually carries the Ancient Demon Bloodline."

The people were astonished. In the Human Clan, those with Demon Clan bloodline were ultimately a minority. It’s important to know that the Demon Clan had long since disappeared from the Spirit Martial Continent, not to mention humans carrying their blood.

"This just got interesting."

Yu, with her charming face, was also slightly startled. A Demon Clan bloodline—this was indeed rare. In the Central Domain, there were also quite a few talented individuals with Demon Clan bloodline. Those people, combining both Human and Demon Clan bloodlines, certainly possessed innate conditions far superior to ordinary human talents and their achievements were vastly superior to those of ordinary human geniuses.

This was equivalent to Ye Xuan, the Half-demon, integrating both Human and Dragon Clan bloodlines.

To that, Ye Xuan remained expressionless. If he wasn’t afraid of the Heavenly Demon Crown Prince, why would he fear a mere Ancient Bronze Demon Bloodline?

"Boy, tremble before me!"

Mu Huang’s expression was somewhat crazed, his smile even more twisted, as he stared at Ye Xuan with a gaze that seemed to devour.

"Stop the nonsense. Whatever trump cards you have, bring them on."

Ye Xuan found it amusing to see Mu Huang’s assured demeanor.

"To still talk to me like this now, I admire your courage!"

Mu Huang’s eyes darkened. He then bent down, the bone spikes on his back appearing extremely sharp, glinting coldly, while his skin shone brilliantly, emitting a metallic luster of bronze.

Swoosh!

Like a nimble leopard, Mu Huang’s palm chopped out, the energy mixed with Magic Power and True Yuan, transformed into a Saber Skill light, heading straight for Ye Xuan’s neck.

"Hunting the Void Saber Skill."

This palm strike combined the most ferocious and direct moves of the Saber Skill—chopping, stabbing, wrapping around the head, enveloping the brain... In the end, simplifying the complex, only three moves remained.

Each of the three moves seemed simple, but they all contained the essence of the Saber Skill, aiming for a fatal blow with a single strike.

Underneath the physique of this Ancient Bronze Demon, the power of the Saber Skill seemed to gain an additional edge. A black arc of demon energy formed a crescent shape, closing in on Ye Xuan.

"Whoosh!"

Before Mu Huang’s arm could fall, Ye Xuan already felt the Aggressive Energy it contained, as if it could slay all obstructing foes.

Ye Xuan’s expression was calm. He pinched his index and middle fingers together, using them as a sword, executing a move from the Illusion Fire Meteor Sword—Meteor Fire Rain.

Sword Intent and True Yuan converged at the fingertips, thrust out rapidly, striking the side edge of Mu Huang’s palm.

"Boom!"

The sound of sword and saber clashing resonated, as both men exchanged a heavy blow.

After the exchange, the two almost simultaneously retreated, each stepping back a dozen steps.

"Hmph!"

With a cold snort, Mu Huang’s eyes flashed with a chilling light. He took a step forward, and his aura climbed again. The air around him violently exploded, and his palm swung fiercely, unleashing hundreds, even thousands, of black saber lights. Each saber light was as quick as lightning, as swift as thunder, sealing off any escape route for Ye Xuan.

Facing this terrifying area-of-effect move, Ye Xuan’s expression remained unchanged. He drew the Dragon Abyss Ancient Sword at lightning speed and thrust it fiercely into the ground before him. Instantly, a powerful wave of sword energy spread out, forming a protective barrier that kept the dense saber lights completely at bay.

"Demon Saber Breaks the Boundary!"

Seeing the barrier appear and block nearly all the attacks, Mu Huang bellowed and launched another assault. His entire body leaped up, his palms chopping down fiercely as if to split the entire arena, slashing with a vicious force.

Boom!

The arena shook slightly, and stones cracked and flew about as debris. The protective barrier above Ye Xuan’s head also cracked open, and the saber lights viciously headed straight for Ye Xuan’s crown.

"Kid, I’ll crush your arrogance."

Down below, Yin Zongli smirked, as if he had already foreseen Ye Xuan’s defeat. He had held onto this grudge for so long, and finally, there was a place to vent it.

"Ancient Demon Bloodline, that’s all you are."

Just then, Ye Xuan also smiled faintly. As Mu Huang’s expression changed, Ye Xuan’s aura suddenly strengthened, a terrifying Sword Intent burst forth as if his figure had grown twofold at that moment. The suppressed strength was released like a flood.

"Ye Xuan was actually holding back his strength."

Xue Lingzi and Fei Yue both were stunned. They had originally thought that facing a fearsome opponent like Mu Huang, Ye Xuan would have to go all out. It was unexpected that he was so composed, and even held back his strength, only now seeming to get serious.

"Interesting kid, very promising indeed."

On the high platform, Yu smiled as she touched her snow-white chin, her eyes smilingly fixed on Ye Xuan on the arena. She seemed to see much more within Ye Xuan, he was like a tightly wrapped zongzi, hiding much more than just this.

Crack!

As the two forces collided, the saber lights instantly shattered piece by piece, offering no resistance, and were forcibly broken through by Ye Xuan. Mu Huang’s expression changed drastically. He hastily stepped back in retreat, trying to dodge Ye Xuan’s sword, but it was too late. The lightning-fast sword light was the first to cut through his Protective True Essence, sending him flying out of the arena.

Mu Huang, with an unsightly look, hastily struck a palm toward the ground behind him, attempting to stabilize his figure. However, Ye Xuan didn’t plan to give him that chance. Just as Mu Huang had struck out, a figure appeared in front of him as if anticipated, landing another punch right on his chest, completely blasting him out of the arena.

"The victory is yours!"

Ye Xuan sheathed the Dragon Abyss Ancient Sword and spoke lightly.

"Darn it!"

Mu Huang, having been blasted out of the arena, looked unsightly and could only pound the ground vehemently, venting his anger.

The crowd below had already erupted into heated discussions.

"To actually have defeated the Ancient Bronze Demon Bloodline, this Ye Xuan is no simple character."

"Yeah, Mu Huang’s strength is probably not much weaker than those on the Martial Saint Candidate List. To think he lost that cleanly to Ye Xuan, it’s truly unexpected."

"You guys don’t know yet, back in Demon Flames City, someone once defeated Fire Cloud Swordsman Song Qing, and that person was also named Ye Xuan. It seems this is the same person on the stage now."

"So he had such achievements before this, no wonder, no wonder."

This battle made many remember the name Ye Xuan. Mu Huang’s strength should only be weaker than that of the first tier of experts like Fire Cloud Crown Prince Duanmu Yu, but he was certainly among the top in the second tier. People’s perception of Ye Xuan shifted from an unknown to front rank among the second-tier experts. At the very least, below those first-tier masters, there probably weren’t many who could defeat Ye Xuan.
