This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered-Chapter 892 - 685: All In or Not at All!

In the end, Fang Zhi and Wan Wan concluded their match in a tie, leaving the other two onlookers who enjoy the spectacle calling it a pity.

"Master, what were those two seniors doing..." Liang Yi arrived and, under a glance from Chen Hua, stayed silent until now to quietly ask.

"These two were bored and happened to discuss the last time the Complete Heaven Sect and the Senluo Wanxiang Sect repelled the Abyss together. They were arguing about who contributed the most and decided to play a match to determine the winner."

Chen Hua, having enjoyed the lively scene, was in a good mood and explained to Liang Yi with a chuckle.

"····"

Liang Yi smacked his lips, momentarily at a loss for words, only managing to marvel at how unbothered these seniors were despite the looming crisis.

Su Youyi, Yue Bai, and Mr. Ju beside Liang Yi shared the same thought, though the slight tension in their hearts quietly dissolved.

With adversaries approaching, these few could still find the mood to play chess; it seemed they were quite confident.

Liang Yi glanced around, seeing only his master, along with Fang Zhi, Zhou Yu, and Wan Wan. The seniors Xu Yi, Emperor Zhou, and Primordial Saint were absent.

The one who just called it a pity was his own master. Although the Sword Master said nothing, his expression, full of "fight, fight" was impossible to conceal.

"Oh, you made progress again?"

Zhou Yuzhi reluctantly tore his gaze from Fang Zhi and Wan Wan and noticed Su Youyi, raising an eyebrow in surprise.

Although he had anticipated it early on, when Su Youyi truly began to comprehend Sword Rhythm, Zhou Yuzhi realized he wouldn't be far from being surpassed.

Seeing Su Youyi now, with her Sword Intent fully restrained and showing no sharpness, yet surrounded by the unique Sword Rhythm visible only to top-tier Sword Cultivators. 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

"Mastery... ultimate mastery..."

Zhou Yuzhi sighed inwardly. It's false to say he wasn't envious. He knew where the path to the Tenth Realm lay but couldn't find the start of the climb, while Su Youyi's path was crystal clear—this was the gap in talent.

"Thanks to the generous guidance of the Sword Master and the seniors of the Heavenly Pool, Youyi has achieved the success of today." Su Youyi bowed respectfully to Zhou Yuzhi, expressing her gratitude.

After realizing comprehending Sword Rhythm was the path forward, Su Youyi directly visited the Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool.

What could be more convenient than directly consulting the masters of Sword Intent?

Zhou Yuzhi of the Heavenly Pool and the numerous Sword Masters were not narrow-minded. Knowing Su Youyi's unstoppable rise, they saw fit to earn a favor by meticulously teaching her their Sword Rhythms one by one.

Su Youyi, living up to their expectations, easily grasped the Sword Rhythms of numerous Sword Masters led by the Sword Master, astounding the people of the Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool with her remarkable talent.

The price Su Youyi paid was condensing her River of Sword Intent into a True Intent and leaving it in the Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool for future generations to comprehend. Even though she wasn't a disciple of the Heavenly Pool, given her current Sword Dao cultivation, no one could deny her the right to leave behind her Sword Intent there.

"Indeed, your talent is exceptional, and you've already found the path to the Tenth Realm, so there's no need to rush. Comprehend the Sword Rhythm step by step. It won't be long before you surpass that fellow Chen Hua." Zhou Yuzhi sized up Su Youyi, nodding in satisfaction. The emergence of a second Sword Cultivator to rival Chen Hua was an honor for all Sword Cultivators.

"Predecessor overestimates me; I'm still far from my master." Su Youyi lowered her head and smiled humbly. Currently, her senior brother's strength should be comparable to her master, yet she hadn't even caught up to her senior brother, so the gap with her master should be similar.

"Don't say that. Chen Hua is just ahead because he's walked the path a bit longer. Surpass him and take down his arrogance so he won't be so smug every day." Zhou Yuzhi said, with a hint of mischief, looking unkindly at Chen Hua.

"Hey, you rascal, you're itching for a beating. Even if Youyi surpasses me in the future, she remains my disciple. Why are you so pleased?" Chen Hua raised an eyebrow, glaring at Zhou Yuzhi—this repressed fellow was full of bad intentions.

"Hmph, Su Youyi uses the Sword Intent partly learned from our Heavenly Pool, and she's been guided by us. When she defeats you in the future, our Heavenly Pool shares the credit." Zhou Yuzhi snorted coldly, not yielding an inch, countering sharply.

This guy had relied on his status as the top Sword Dao master to mock him with sly words. Zhou Yuzhi had long been fed up with him.

More annoying was that he couldn't defeat Chen Hua, and neither could the disciples of the Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool, nor could they reclaim the title of the top Sword Dao master. So if Su Youyi could defeat Chen Hua, Zhou Yuzhi would be more than happy since their Heavenly Pool had taught Su Youyi.

Chen Hua's face darkened, blue veins popping on his forehead, feeling provoked.

"Ahem, you two chat away. We'll be heading back to oversee our territories, considering we need to check on the various arrays."

Seeing Chen Hua like this, Fang Zhi knew that guy was likely to resort to force, and now was not like in the past when he and Zhou Yuzhi could join forces to thrash Chen Hua. Now, even together, they might not remain unscathed.

He hurriedly bid farewell to Chen Hua, Liang Yi, and the others with a grin, pulled Zhou Yuzhi along, and in a flash of starlight, the two disappeared from the spot, opting to make a fast exit.
