Supreme Sword God

Chapter 784 - 783: On the Brink, Handle Your Own Problems

The Patriarch of the Situ Family, Situ Bo, spoke with an utterly domineering tone.

Even though he knew Shi Fengchun would certainly protect Ye Chen, he was completely indifferent.

Because he knew that once the battle started, just Shi Fengchun alone couldn’t protect Ye Chen!

Shi Fengchun’s eyes slightly narrowed, and he sneered, "Whoever dares to kill Ye Chen, no matter who it is, must die. I said it!"

Situ Bo looked at Liu Qing and said casually, "Sect Leader Liu, you also have the grudge of losing a son because of Ye Chen, don’t you? Later, when this Hall Master Shi and I exchange a few moves, will Great Sect Leader Liu just watch?"

Although the alliance between the Celestial Demon Sect and the Situ Clan had long since dissolved in bad terms, at least for now, they were facing a common strong enemy, and a temporary alliance was a wise choice.

Liu Qing said, "If there’s a chance, this Sect Leader will surely kill Ye Chen to avenge my son."

On the side.

The Reincarnator, Lin Jiao, said indifferently, "Li Guardian, since everyone wants some excitement, we shouldn’t just stand by."

In an instant.

The Celestial Demon Sect, the Situ Family, and the Reincarnators, the three forces, jointly pressured Shi Fengchun.

Although the Patriarch of the Wang Family, Wang Haichao, and the Patriarch of the Tang Family, Tang Ren, were still standing by Shi Fengchun’s side, the two of them together could barely fight against the Sect Leader of the Celestial Demon Sect, Liu Qing.

Situ Bo laughed loudly and said, "Shi Fengchun, I know you have been hiding your strength all along. I’ve always wanted to see how strong you really are. I hope you won’t disappoint me!"

The middle-aged reincarnator wielding a heavy sword said lightly, "You’ve gotten much stronger since our last fight; I’m curious about your limits."

At that moment, another loud voice rang out.

"Luckily, I’m not too late."

A figure, like a peerless divine sword, tore through the sky and shot forward.

This was a rather handsome middle-aged man, a long sword slung across his back, exuding an air of great ease.

The man looked at Shi Fengchun, smiled faintly, and said, "Hall Master Shi, why not let me handle Situ Bo?"

Shi Fengchun smiled with narrowed eyes and said, "Since Sect Leader Xu has the intention to give it a try, I would naturally be very grateful."

The Sect Leader of the Celestial Demon Sect, Liu Qing, was visibly tense and said, "Xu Fenghua, is your Celestial Mountain Sect sure about getting involved too?!"

A gleam flashed in Ye Chen’s eyes.

So this is Xu Fenghua, the Sect Leader of the Celestial Mountain Sect, the real elder brother of Su Yun, Vice Hall Master of Bright Hall!

One follows the father’s surname, the other follows the mother’s.

The Celestial Mountain Sect in Cangzhou is one of the top forces, but the demon cave they suppress is vast, and given their principled and dispassionate approach, they seldom make any moves outside.

Xu Fenghua looked at Liu Qing and said, "Sect Leader Liu, our Celestial Mountain Sect has always been involved, but we had been primarily suppressing the demon cave before, so we paid little attention to the turmoil in Cangzhou.

Fortunately, recently, I entered the demon cave, slew the Demon Emperor, and completed the Frost Holy Sword. Our Celestial Mountain Sect ought to stand out for the stability of Cangzhou!"

As Xu Fenghua said this.

The expressions of many people present changed visibly.

His words carried deep meanings.

Entering the demon cave, slaying the Demon Emperor, completing the Frost Holy Sword...

Amid numerous astonished gazes, a supremely cold aura emerged from Xu Fenghua, as if the heavens and earth had transformed into an endless snowy plain.

"Buzz!"

The long sword behind him trembled slightly, then an even more immense chill rose to the sky. The sword was unsheathed, and within the sword light, numerous towering snow-capped mountains appeared, each like a sword!

"Quasi-Emperor!"

"Holy Sword!"

Exclamations erupted from the mouths of some people nearby.

Xu Fenghua stood wielding his sword, looking at Situ Bo and said, "I’ve long heard of the Situ Family’s formidable strength, with Patriarch Situ being an Emperor Realm powerhouse. Today, I, Xu Fenghua, seek to learn a few moves from Patriarch Situ with my Quasi-Emperor realm."

Situ Bo’s face turned gloomy.

He wouldn’t bat an eye if it was just a Quasi-Emperor.

But Xu Fenghua wielding a Holy Sword meant his combat prowess almost reached Emperor Realm!

The power of the Holy Weapon was not to be underestimated.

Otherwise, their Situ Family wouldn’t have gone out seeking help to enhance the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower to a Holy Weapon.

Originally, the Situ Family wanted Celestial Master Chen, known for his reputation in Cangzhou, to help promote the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower to a Holy Weapon, but they were misled by Ye Chen, losing even the Half-Saint Weapon Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower.

Shi Fengchun still maintained a smiling expression, looking at the Emperor Realm reincarnator, and said, "If no one interferes, we can have another go."

"Shi Fengchun, if you want to fight, I, Li Shiji, will accompany you till the end."

"So your name is Li Shiji," Shi Fengchun smiled and said, "But you seem to have misunderstood; I didn’t seek a fight—all along, it was you who was eager for battle!"

Ye Chen surveyed the entire scene, then took a step forward and said, "Brother Chun, we didn’t come here today just to shout and kill. If a dog bites us, we can’t bite back, can we?"

The reincarnator, Lu Qi, who had been rendered speechless by Ye Chen earlier, shouted, "Ye Chen, even if you want to bite back, you don’t have the capability!"

Ye Chen sneered, "So you admit you’re all dogs?"

Lu Qi: "..."

Lin Jiao and the others were so frustrated that they wanted to slap the fool, knowing full well they couldn’t argue with Ye Chen yet voluntarily putting themselves in a position to be outwitted.

Ye Chen looked at Xu Fenghua, cupped his hands, and said, "Sect Leader Xu wielded his sword righteously; Ye Mou is grateful, and this kindness will be remembered.

However, since the matter originated because of me, it should naturally be resolved by me."

With that, Ye Chen turned to face the people of the Situ Family and said, "The Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower is in my hands, and it doesn’t bear the name of your Situ Family. Just because you say it’s yours, it becomes yours?

Don’t think that just because your Situ Family is powerful, you can act domineeringly and recklessly, claiming everything good should be yours?

I could even say that everything you eat and use in the Situ Clan is mine!

Everything should be backed by evidence!

Of course, I can’t stand your shameless haggling either, so let’s resolve this once and for all today.

I’ll bring out the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower now. If your Situ Family can manage it, take it back as you please.

Of course, if you fail to manage the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower, you must stop making baseless claims in public."

The people of the Situ Family were so furious they seemed about to explode.

Something that clearly belonged to their Situ Family, in Ye Chen’s words, made it sound like the Situ Family was trying to bully and steal wantonly.

Situ Bo’s eyes flashed with cold light as he shouted, "Fine, bring out the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower. If I can’t manage it, the Situ Family will have nothing more to say!"

Despite being angry.

They had to get the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower back first.

Even if it’s just a Half-Sacred Artifact, it’s incredibly precious, let alone the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower being a top-tier Half-Sacred Artifact.

If only he had the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower in hand, he wouldn’t be intimidated by Xu Fenghua with his Holy Weapon!

Xu Fenghua, Wang Haichao, Tang Ren, and others all had their brows tightly knit.

They were all aware of the situation regarding the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower.

Ye Chen now wanted to gamble it against Situ Bo, which in their view, was too impulsive.

In the previous standoff, a battle might not have necessarily erupted.

But Ye Chen’s one action directly disrupted the standoff among the powerful individuals.

If Situ Bo takes back the Heaven-Suppressing Treasure Tower, the situation would become unfavorable. Even if a battle doesn’t erupt immediately, once the Fate Pool appears, Situ Bo, whose strength will have surged, would surely become a larger problem.

In the arena.

Only Shi Fengchun remained calmly composed, thinking to himself, "This brat, Ye Chen, is up to tricks again!"

For he knew Ye Chen the best.

If he wasn’t confident, at most, Ye Chen would just brag and cower at the back.

If Ye Chen dared to do this, he must be confident and have some scheme in mind!
