On the other side, seeing that the opponent seemed to have ’no intention of sparring,’ Luo Qingchen couldn’t help but frown slightly: "Ye Xiaofan, could it be that you know well you are not my match, even if I seal my cultivation, you still don’t dare to spar with me? If that’s really the case, then there’s no point in continuing."

The opponent still showing no intention of engaging made a hint of disappointment flash in Luo Qingchen’s eyes.

Actually, his insistence on competing with Ye Xiaofan in the Sword Intent Realm was not without reason. Rather than calling it a spar, it would be better to describe it as a breakthrough or an ’exchange.’

Sword Cultivators who major in Sword Intent are different from all other cultivators; the essence of cultivating Sword Intent for this kind of Sword Cultivator lies in just one word: Comprehension!

Comprehending Sword Dao, understanding Sword Qi, and thus understanding Sword Intent. Once a layer of the shackles of Sword Intent is broken through, the strength of a Sword Cultivator will skyrocket instantly, even reaching some incredible stage.

Sword Intent is different from cultivation. Even though Luo Qingchen’s cultivation was already in the Self-Slaying Realm, he sealed his Sword Intent Realm to battle with Ye Xiaofan. But if he could gain some enlightenment in the spar, all Sword Intent Realms would immediately rise, and even the subsequent Sword Intent would undergo a qualitative change.

This is why Luo Qingchen is determined to compete with Ye Xiaofan in the Sword Intent Realm. Comparing the artistic conception of two Sword Cultivators at the pinnacle of Sword Intent is undoubtedly another way to comprehend Sword Intent. Many things that cannot be comprehended by oneself can be touched from the opponent.

Seeing a trace of disappointment flash in Luo Qingchen’s eyes, Ye Xiaofan could only smile wryly, glancing lightly at that pavilion behind him. Since a collaboration had been reached, tying his younger brother to himself could also be considered a bit of protection.

After all, he still didn’t know what Luo Qingxian was up to, even though this bonding might not be effective, it would still have some impact.

With such thoughts in mind, Ye Xiaofan seemed to have an epiphany, slowly looking at Luo Qingchen and said: "Senior Brother Luo, I indeed don’t want to fight with you. But it’s not for the reason you think; instead, I’m afraid I’m not your match."

Ye Xiaofan paused deliberately at this point, waiting for the other party to question him.

This trick is called "throwing a brick to attract jade," as instructed by Mo Shiyi.

Sure enough, Luo Qingchen appeared puzzled upon hearing this, a hint of curiosity flashed in his eyes as he said: "If it’s not that, then why don’t you tell me what it is?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Xiaofan raised his eyebrows slightly, swallowed a bit of saliva, and communicated to Mo Shiyi: "Are you sure about doing this?"

"You must do it this way, Junior Brother Ye, trust me. Just follow what we discussed earlier, the effect won’t be too bad."

Mo Shiyi was very sure, and although the two seemed to exchange words for just a moment, the following steps were also discussed.

Hearing this, Ye Xiaofan felt somewhat uncomfortable, but he proceeded with the ’act’ as Mo Shiyi taught him.

Then that figure showed a troubled expression towards Luo Qingchen, seeming very helpless and reluctant to say: "I’m afraid of accidentally injuring you in the Sword Intent Realm. After all, you have a noble identity; how could I afford to offend you?"

Ye Xiaofan spoke with conviction, seemingly with great details and justification.

However, as soon as these words were spoken, Luo Qingchen was slightly taken aback, and all the terrifying senior brothers of the Divine Sword Sect around stopped for a moment.

It should be known that those present in this world were terrifying senior brothers and sisters of the Divine Sword Sect, the apex powers of the Hundred Sects Battle Domain, and even the ones leading the ultimate direction of the battle between the Righteous and Demon Alliance.

Among them were either powerhouses of the Self-Slaying Realm or cultivators of the True Self Realm, the few weakest being peerless prodigies at the ’Peak of the Spiritual Essence Realm.’

Of course, this included some suitors and secret admirers of Luo Qingxian, but more importantly, were the senior brothers and sisters who had long been at the peak of the Spirit Peak.

This Spirit Peak was clearly the one managed by Luo Qingxian and Luo Qingchen, just like the seventy-sixth Spirit Peak where Ye Xiaofan was, where people like Liu Jiangxue were like overseers.

That is to say, the Self-Slaying Realm senior brothers and sisters on this Spirit Peak were a force temporarily gathered by the siblings in the Hundred Sects Battle Domain to fight against the Demonic Dao Sects. Although they hadn’t been together long, these powerhouses in the Self-Slaying Realm had some understanding of the siblings’ strength and background.

Especially Luo Qingchen’s Sword Intent Talent, which is part of the Sword Dao Talent. While having a strong Sword Dao Talent doesn’t necessarily mean terrifying Sword Intent Realm, having formidable Sword Intent Talent ensures astounding achievements in Sword Dao.

The comprehension of a Sword Cultivator in the Sword Intent Realm is also a reflection of comprehension ability. A cultivator who can comprehend terrifying Sword Intent is unlikely to have a poor comprehension in other aspects, at least a relatively comparable level.

Just so, Luo Qingchen’s achievements in Sword Intent can be said to be almost the pinnacle of the Divine Sword Sect. Setting aside the elders, the sword intent of the person before was undoubtedly second to none.

And now, that figure shamelessly claimed he feared his Sword Intent might harm the opponent.

For a moment, many of the Divine Sword Sect’s Self-Slaying Realm senior brothers and sisters could only shake their heads with a bitter smile, their eyes revealing a hint of disdain and sarcasm.

And some of the senior brothers and sisters who already were suitors and admirers of Luo Qingxian spoke up directly from where they stood.

"What utter arrogance. Is this person so inflated by rumors that he forgets who he is? He actually wants to compete with Junior Brother Luo in the Sword Intent Realm and even claims to fear harming Junior Brother Luo?"
