Chapter 1606: Chapter 1606: Top Ten of the Martial Arts World

At this moment.

Ye Xuan’s faint laughter echoed in his ears: "Is that all the strength the Great Elder of Qingcheng Mountain has?"

Mockery, it’s definitely mockery!

Chen Yue was furious.

But before he could react.

Clang!

The crisp sound of metal shattering resonated.

Poof!

Chen Yue’s chest was directly pierced through, blood gushing forth on the spot.

The world fell silent.

The scene froze.

Everyone’s eyes on the scene, including Chen Yue himself, were filled with infinite shock, looking woodenly at that sword.

The silver-white long sword still held tightly in Chen Yue’s hand.

One could see that the sword was already missing a corner.

The broken part was uneven, as if it had been forcibly broken by someone...

"To kill you, why would I need a sword?"

The words Ye Xuan had said not long ago now echoed like a demonic chant in everyone’s mind at the scene, continuously resounding.

To kill you, why would I need a sword!

Indeed, there’s no need!

Chen Yue struggled to lower his head, looking at the wound on his chest that was continuously gushing blood, his increasingly pale face gradually filled with disbelief.

It seemed he still couldn’t believe, even now, that he, Chen Yue, who had lived a glorious life, ultimately died by his own sword.

What was the vast gap in strength between himself and Ye Xuan?

Chen Yue couldn’t understand...

Thud!

The dull sound of a body hitting the ground announced Chen Yue’s death.

The entire Canglang Island fell silent!

Countless gazes focused, staring at Chen Yue’s cold body, all in shock, unable to believe that the esteemed Great Elder of Qingcheng Mountain had died just like that.

Wasn’t Ye Xuan injured?

Was he really injured?

In the dead silence.

Baili Xiao snapped back to reality, feeling greatly relieved, and immediately looked at the livid-faced Huang Yan, laughing loudly, "Hahaha, Huang Yan, did you see that? This is strength, this is the strength of Brother Ye Xuan. You, neither human nor ghost, I originally wanted to save Chen Yue’s life, but you insisted on meddling. Now look? You caused Chen Yue’s death!"

"You bastard, you..."

Huang Yan returned to his senses, very angry at Baili Xiao’s attempt to shift the blame.

"Huang Yan, is it?"

At this moment, Ye Xuan’s cold and indifferent gaze also fell on Huang Yan.

Huang Yan felt a chill throughout his body.

Ye Xuan’s sinister laughter followed: "I’m in a good mood today, and I want to challenge you. Decide the winner and loser, decide life and death. Do you dare to accept?"

On Canglang Island, it seemed a classic line was uttered.

I call on you, do you dare to answer?

Huang Yan felt deeply humiliated.

He certainly wanted to accept, but...

He didn’t dare!

And he couldn’t!

In terms of strength, he, Huang Yan, was evenly matched with Chen Yue. Chen Yue was so easily defeated by Ye Xuan, could he, Huang Yan, be any different?

Keep in mind, Ye Xuan hasn’t even drawn his sword!

If he accepted, wouldn’t it be courting death?

"Why is it like this? Why!"

Huang Yan roared inwardly, feeling a murderous urge in his collapse.

On the Canglang Island trip, before arriving, Ghost King Valley, Qingcheng Mountain, and the Zhao Family had all made plans. After Ye Xuan finished his duel with the Sword God, they would challenge him one by one, ensuring Ye Xuan stayed on this desolate island forever.

But unknowingly, how did the situation turn out this way?

According to the plan, when Ye Xuan faced Chen Yue, he should have been exhausted. Even if not, after a death match with Chen Yue, he should’ve shown signs of defeat, right?

If the plan went well, it wouldn’t even be necessary for the Zhao Family experts to act. He and Chen Yue alone were enough to ensure Ye Xuan perished without a trace. Perhaps Chen Yue wouldn’t need to die...

Plans couldn’t keep up with changes.

Huang Yan suddenly had a realization, turned his head thoughtfully towards the direction of the Zhao Family’s position, sending a signal for help.

Fortunately, the allies were quite righteous...

Upon receiving Huang Yan’s signal.

From the Zhao Family’s position, an old man in gray robes quickly emerged, and at the same time, his hoarse and aged voice resounded: "Since Young Friend Ye Xuan is so interested, why not let this old man take Huang Yan’s place and have a face-off with you!"

Countless gazes gathered, and upon seeing the figure of the gray-robed old man, everyone’s expression changed.

"Is it... Zhao Yunhai?"

"Zhao Family’s Zhao Yunhai? My God, it’s Zhao Family’s Zhao Yunhai!"

"Zhao Yunhai also came to Canglang Island? This... the Zhao Family is determined to kill Ye Xuan!"

"..."

Upon discovering the old gray-robed man’s identity, the atmosphere on the scene exploded again. Numerous gazes returned to Ye Xuan, no longer filled with shock, but replaced by a sense of worry and pity.

Zhao Yunhai, the Zhao Family’s Second Elder, even in the entire Martial Arts world, is one of the few top experts!

Rumor has it that Zhao Yunhai went on a journey ten years ago, traveling the world, and by chance, gained a fortuitous encounter, after which his strength continued to climb. Returning to the Martial Arts world, he challenged the leaders of several major sects and won decisively.

His strength is definitely above that of the Sword God!

"Damn it, why is it Zhao Yunhai?"

Seeing Zhao Yunhai’s figure, the smile on Baili Xiao’s face suddenly froze, replaced by a heavy and serious expression.

The strength of Zhao Yunhai, even if Brother Baili Buku were to confront him, wouldn’t guarantee a complete victory!

That Huang Yan, upon seeing Zhao Yunhai step forward, sighed heavily with relief, then turned to look at Ye Xuan, his face once again showing a cold smile: "I know I can’t win, and it just so happens Zhao Yunhai is willing to take on the challenge. If you dare, fight him!"

"Zhao Yunhai?"

Ye Xuan raised an eyebrow, smilingly regarded Zhao Yunhai and asked, "What is Zhao Yunfei to you?"

"Zhao Yunfei is my brother."

Zhao Yunhai narrowed his eyes slightly, gazing faintly at Ye Xuan, "As it happens, not long ago, my brother Zhao Yunfei and my nephew both died at your hands, didn’t they?"

"They courted death, I couldn’t help it." Ye Xuan shrugged indifferently, "If you seek death today, I don’t mind sending you off."

Zhao Yunhai’s eyes sharpened.

That Huang Yan then shouted angrily, "Ye Xuan, you don’t know your place! Lord Zhao Yunhai is one of the top ten martial arts masters, and killing you would be effortless!"

"Top ten in the martial arts world?" Ye Xuan snorted, looking playfully at Zhao Yunhai, "So what?"

Everyone was stunned.

He’s full of himself.

Ye Xuan, this guy, is definitely full of himself!

This is Zhao Yunhai!

And Zhao Yunhai, upon hearing Ye Xuan’s arrogant words, also had a flash of coldness on his otherwise calm face.

Suddenly, his figure swayed.

A gentle breeze brushed past.

In the next instant, Zhao Yunhai appeared ten meters in front of Ye Xuan.

Mysterious and unpredictable!
