Martial Cultivator
chapter-208

"Indeed rather interesting." The young daoist looked at Chen Chao and was the first to speak.

Just like the other daoist earlier, he had also looked down on this young man greatly, thinking he should be nothing extraordinary and would soon be slain by them. However, the events of this night completely changed their notion. The young man before them was far from what they had anticipated. He killed several purple-robed daoists consecutively before being forced into a dire situation.

However, that was it.

The young daoist looked at Chen Chao and said, "A Bitter Sea martial artist of this age is indeed a rare sight."

If Chen Chao was not a martial artist, but a Bitter Sea immortal cultivator whose origins were unknown, he would probably be very apprehensive.

Because how could someone who could possess this cultivation level at this age be simple?

He must be the genius disciple of some major sect. Otherwise, it would be absolutely impossible.

However, it was a shame that the young man before them was really just a mere martial artist.

The young daoist let out a sigh of relief.

"You murdered people and still didn't leave. Do you really think that our Sublime Bright Sect is easy to bully?"

The young daoist looked at Chen Chao thoughtfully.

Chen Chao held the broken saber in his hand. Through the brief exchange with the young daoist, he had already sensed that even though the other party's realm was at the Great Beyond Realm, it seemed to be propped up by numerous rare materials and treasures. It was not at all like the cultivation realm he bitterly cultivated himself. Otherwise, he would likely have suffered a greater loss in the earlier confrontation.

In reality, the young daoist's innate talents were undoubtedly excellent. But, he was too young and there was a considerable gap between him and his senior brothers. He had gone to great lengths and made considerable efforts to vie for the position of sect master. It was inevitable that he would go astray.

Chen Chao said indifferently, "This official is the warden of Rainwater Commandery, a court-appointed official. You foreign cultivators are actually bold enough to assassinate this official. Your crime is unforgivable."

The young daoist smiled, "You wouldn't think that your status can intimidate us, right?"

Suddenly, he found this situation somewhat odd, wondering if this young man was a bit muddle-headed, "For a Bitter Sea martial artist of your age, if I were that Emperor of yours, I'd naturally keep you under my watchful eye. How could I allow you to come here?"

While speaking, the daoist suddenly recalled something, furrowing his brows.

Although there were many martial artists in the Great Liang Dynasty, those of Chen Chao's age who had reached this cultivation realm were incredibly rare existences.

And it was evident that a rare existence like Chen Chao would not be easily found elsewhere.

Therefore, the identity of the young man before them became apparent.

The daoist frowned and said, "You're Chen Chao?"

Chen Chao's identity was quite recognizable. The black attire, the broken saber, and coupled with his cultivation realm, it was not hard to guess.

Hearing Chen Chao's name, the young daoist became quite interested too. Looking at Chen Chao, he exclaimed, "Turns out that you're that youth who emerged victorious in the martial examination."

The Myriad Willow Convention took place in the Divine Capital. Then, a totally unexpected outcome emerged. The cultivators who participated in the Myriad Willow Convention returned in humiliation. As a result, Chen Chao's name spread throughout the entire cultivation world. Everyone came to know the name Chen Chao.

Though the Sublime Bright Sect had not participated in this year's Myriad Willow Convention, they naturally knew about these events too.

Chen Chao said calmly, "This official is Chen Chao."

Facing two Great Beyond Realm cultivators and a group of Bitter Sea Realm cultivators, he was seemingly unmoved, exuding an air of indifference.

The young daoist continued, "In this case, those guys dying at your hands wasn't entirely unjust. But even if you're the martial examination's champion, you'll die here too."

Chen Chao said, "According to Great Liang's law, if you guys want to kill me, then I can kill you guys."

The three words "Great Liang's law" had been consistently mentioned by Chen Chao since earlier, but in reality, true big shots would not be concerned with these three words. Or rather, they did not care about the current Chen Chao who said these three words.

Great Liang's law was like a wooden blade. In the eyes of the foreign cultivators, it did not pose any threat.

But if one day, the person holding that wooden blade became a terrifying existence like the Great Liang Emperor, then forget about it being a wooden blade, even if it were just an ordinary piece of blank paper, it would be a very terrifying object too.

"You know, these three words, the 'Great Liang's law,' is the most laughable rule in the world. You can't even comply yourselves, let alone use it to constrain us?"

The young daoist shook his head and said, "The only useful rule is the fist. For instance, if you were a Nepenthe martial artist right now, I'd definitely listen to your words seriously when you talk, then adopt the most respectful attitude. I might even kneel right away and kiss your toes."

Chen Chao said, "That's too disgusting."

The young daoist chuckled, "But I suppose even if I said I would spare you if you kissed my toes, you wouldn't do it."

Chen Chao did not deny it, he just said, "I don't think I'll die. On the contrary, I think you might."

The young daoist smiled and did not speak.

The daoist furrowed his brows and said, "Enough with the crap."

He had waited for a long time and was getting rather impatient. He really did not want to wait any longer at this moment.

Chen Chao smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, I don't have any contingency plans left. I just... have a friend..."

Before his voice faded, a sword cry suddenly sounded out.

The daoist's expression changed slightly.

The young daoist also had some reaction.

A green flying sword swiftly swiped across the chest of one of the purple-robed cultivators.

It flashed by fleetingly and only sword qi spilled.

That purple-robed daoist collapsed.

The flying sword quickly pierced through the heart of the second purple-robed cultivator.

The daoist looked at that flying sword and began searching for the sword cultivator who was controlling the flying sword.

Before he could react, Chen Chao moved.

He waited for a long time and finally found a suitable opportunity.

He directly threw the broken saber in his hand while simultaneously launching himself forward like an arrow released from its string; incredibly fast!

The young daoist felt a glimmer of cold light pass before his eyes, then saw Chen Chao slamming towards him.

In the end, he was a true genius of the Sublime Bright Sect. Even if he had strayed down the wrong path, he was not what the average person could compare to. Seeing Chen Chao rushing at him, he raised his hands in front of him, and a surging qi erupted from his palms.

The broken saber was struck and it seemed like it was about to fall.

At that moment the broken saber fell, a hand grabbed the saber hilt.

Chen Chao gripped the broken saber and by borrowing the momentum of his charge, he swung it with force!

A ten feet long saber beam suddenly surged forth!

At the same time, Yu Xiyi who was on the rooftop stood up.

This young sword cultivator looked at his flying sword and said softly, "Return."

Wild Grass, hearing its sword master's summoning, hummed slightly with a hint of reluctance.

Yu Xiyi furrowed his brows and scolded, "What a disobedient fellow!"

He stepped forward and leaped into the courtyard.
