Chapter 2541: Chapter 2542: The Ten Fingers Sword Unleashed—A Battle to Astonish the World
The two were discussing as if there was no one else around, yet no one noticed Lord Yuehua’s gradually clenched fist.
His attention to this battle was unprecedented.
After all, he also wanted to know whether Xue An could really defeat Shen Muyu and put the Shen Family in its place.
At the same time, in an inconspicuous corner of the stands, sat the silent members of the Mo Family.
At this moment, Mo Kong, the prominent figure of the Mo Family, suddenly sighed softly.
"What an unparalleled battle, but it’s a pity that it’s being wasted here!"
Jiang Cunliang, the disciple of the Za Family who recently joined, asked in confusion, "Master, what do you mean by that?"
Mo Kong shook his head but did not explain, only looked towards the arena with a hint of worry.
At this moment, Xue An and Shen Muyu stood facing each other.
Although they hadn’t made a move, there were already two auras contending in the void.
Shen Muyu was the first to speak, "To be honest, I really didn’t expect that not only could you leave seclusion, but also break through the barrier and achieve the Saint Realm. From this point, it’s clear that defeating Hongyi was no accident!"
Xue An smiled calmly but said nothing, as he knew Shen Muyu definitely had more to say.
Sure enough.
Shen Muyu frowned slightly, "But I really can’t understand, with such talent, why would you choose to oppose my Shen Family?"
"Oppose your Shen Family?" Xue An was almost speechless with laughter.
"Back then, your Shen Family sent people to accuse me without giving me a chance to speak, demanding I bring the Sword Heart to your Shen Family to bear the punishment, and now you’re saying I choose to oppose your Shen Family?"
"It seems like you’ve taken all the words of the world for yourselves!"
Xue An’s last statement was rather impolite.
But Shen Muyu just frowned slightly, then sighed lightly, "That was just my subordinates acting rashly at the time, after all, the Sword Heart you carry indeed belongs to the Shen Family, and their anxiety was understandable!"
"They believed it was taken by force, but I know that’s impossible. It must be just as you said, a gift from a friend!"
"And then? What exactly do you want to say?" Xue An raised an eyebrow and asked coldly.
"What I actually want to say is very simple. With such talent, it’s a pity for you to die under my sword. So now, if you admit defeat and acknowledge your mistakes, I can forgive the past, and help you become a Guest Elder of our Shen Family, and enjoy the Sword Intent resources accumulated over thousands of years by our Shen Family. How about it?"
Upon hearing this, there was a slight commotion in the stands, with many showing envious expressions.
Because the position of a Guest Elder in the Shen Family is extremely difficult to obtain.
Once you have it, it signifies supreme honor.
As for the Sword Intent resources accumulated over thousands of years by the Shen Family, it’s an unimaginable treasure, especially for a Sword Cultivator, its allure is unspeakable.
At least many in the Shen Family’s camp were shaken by Shen Muyu’s proposal.
Shen Gaoge grumbled discontentedly, "Cousin, what do you think Second Young Master is thinking? Why is he being so courteous to this Xue An? Could it be that he’s scared too?"
Shen Hongyi gave her unpromising cousin a fierce glare, "Shut up, if you keep spouting nonsense, be careful or I’ll kick you out right now!"
Shen Gaoge sheepishly closed his mouth, but his eyes were still full of grievance.
And it was at this moment that a burst of laughter came from the arena.
The laughter was full of mockery.
After laughing for a while, Xue An gradually composed himself, then said in a mocking tone.
"Shen Muyu, could you really think that everyone is full of longing for your Shen Family? Or were your words just meant to shake my Sword Intent?"
Shen Muyu seemed to have anticipated Xue An’s reaction, couldn’t help but sigh, "Actually, I really do want to recruit you sincerely!"
"Enough, from the moment your Shen Family entered the field, you haven’t stopped creating momentum for yourself, and now you’re using rhetoric to sway my fighting spirit, it seems your Shen Family will stop at nothing for victory!"
"Moreover, let me just make it clear to you now, for your so-called recruitment, I, Xue An, couldn’t care less! Your Shen Family is nothing more than a group of conceited ants in my eyes!"
Boom!
If there was only a slight commotion in the stands earlier, now it was like pouring a ladle of cold water into a pot of boiling oil, thoroughly boiling over.
"Hiss! It’s been a long time since anyone dared to speak to the Shen Family like that, right?" someone gasped in surprise.
"Who would say otherwise, it seems today is going to be lively!"
"To dare mock the Shen Family to their face, this guy is really headstrong!"
For a moment, there were those who were astonished, those who were worried, and of course, those who were delighted.
Like Yue Qinghuan.
After hearing Xue An’s bold declaration, her little face turned red with excitement, and she suddenly stood up to applaud and cheer.
"Well said, I’ve long found the sight of this bunch from the Shen Family displeasing, always so arrogant, they really think they’re something special?"
Her words made the already boiling situation even more lively.
Many even recognized her identity, knowing she was the younger sister of the current head of the Bing Family, and followed her lead to echo her sentiments.
This made the expressions of the Shen Family members rather unpleasant.
Especially Shen Muyu on the arena, whose expression suddenly changed, a trace of anger flashing in his eyes, but it was quickly suppressed.
"Fine! Since you think this way, there’s no point in saying more, let’s see whose sword is truly superior!"
Saying this, Shen Muyu suddenly raised his gaze, and his aura changed dramatically in an instant.
If just now Shen Muyu had a restrained grace, like a sheathed peerless weapon.
Now, the sword was drawn, and he was revealing its sharpness.
Even with the barrier of the arena, it still made the audience on the stands feel tremendous pressure.
It was imaginable how much more pressure Xue An, standing on the opposite side, must be enduring.
Yet in the face of the oncoming sword force, Xue An treated it like a breeze, smiling as he spoke.
"Alright, then let me see how strong the strike you’ve been preparing for so long can be!"
When he said this, Xue An didn’t even assume a defensive stance, standing there casually.
This was a blatant disregard and provocation.
But when the Sword Intent burst forth, Shen Muyu entered a mystical realm of void and desire, where nothing external could interfere with him.
Thus, he expressionlessly raised his hand, extending his left index finger, slicing down directly.
"The Ten Fingers Sword! It’s the Ten Fingers Sword!" Shen Hongyi murmured almost moaningly, her eyes full of amazement.
As a Sword Cultivator herself, she could naturally see the power of this sword!
Despite this Sword Intent being merely as thick as a chopstick, and without much momentum, its power was unparalleled, capable of slaying gods and demons alike.
This was precisely Shen Muyu’s famous ultimate move, the Ten Fingers Sword!
