Chapter 357: Identity Revealed
This made the sculpture look like it were alive. It looked like an absolute beauty that could come to life at any moment.
The girl the sculpture depicted was Princess Ying Yue herself. She smiled gently and said, “Not bad; he has handed in his homework for every month. Furthermore, they are all different.”
Nangong Lie, not far away, had a big smile on his face. He said, “This fellow has unknowingly done us a big favor. The myth of the Holy Land’s might become a joke.”
Ying Yue withdrew her smile and set aside the sculpture. Her gaze penetrated the boundless clouds, seeing the situation in the drill ground. She muttered, “There is no such thing as a true myth in this world. However, he has really helped us out this time.”

In the desolate back mountains of the Lingyun Mountain Range, where the Reincarnation Well was, eight old men in red robes carefully observed the situation of the seal in the well.
The expression of the old man leading them suddenly changed. He raised his head and looked in the direction of the Heaven Viewing Platform.
The Heavenly Saber Pavilion’s Ninth Elder next to him asked cautiously, “Elder Luo, has something happened?”
The Ninth Elder could not help his nerves. This old man before him ranked sixth among the elders of the Phoenix’s Passion Palace’s inner sect.
This person possessed a lot of authority in the inner sect; the outer sect elders were far from comparing to him. His cultivation was unfathomable. The person responsible for the restoration of the seal was this person.
Elder Luo withdrew his gaze, and a hard to trace anger flashed in his eyes. He smiled faintly and said, “Nothing’s wrong. The seal is in a better state than I had imagined. I might be able to repair this spatial crack completely this time. Even if I cannot, the Heavenly Saber Pavilion will not have to worry about a Demonic Calamity for the next hundred years.”

Back at the Heaven Viewing Platform, Luo Huang finally dissipated the force and landed firmly on the ground. He set Luo Li down gently and glared at Xiao Chen.
“You have gone overboard. I already asked you to stop,” Luo Huang said gloomily; his gaze was icy.
How funny. Now, he knows that I went overboard and shouted for me to stop. Why did he not shout for Luo Li to stop when he injured so many people earlier? It is clear that we are not even people in your eyes.
Xiao Chen replied indifferently, “His skills are not up to par; what more is there to say?”
Luo Huang laughed coldly. He said in a frosty voice, “Very good; his skills are not up to par. So, if I beat you to death now, will you have nothing to say?”
When Xiao Chen felt the other party’s killing Qi, he shifted backward slightly. He adjusted the state of his body to its peak. He said softly, “You cannot do it. How much stronger are you compared to him? Holy Might is useless against me. In my eyes, you are just an ordinary Martial Saint expert.”
“Reckless!”
Luo Huang waved his hand, and a sword appeared in his grip. Killing Qi spilled from his entire body. He sent out a sword light and launched his killing move at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen did not feel any fear. He held his saber with one hand and leaped into the air.
“Dang! Dang! Dang!”
The two exchanged moves in the air. In the blink of an eye, they had exchanged several dozen moves. Their weapons clashed with each other. The metallic clangs rang out endlessly.
After the two parted, they quickly spun around and started fighting again. They were becoming faster and more ferocious. When they made their moves, they did not hold back.
Strands of saber Qi and sword Qi flew throughout the arena. The tough Frost Iron shattered into thousands of pieces as a result of the shockwaves. The arena was no longer recognizable.
Soon, the arena the Heavenly Saber Pavilion had prepared meticulously shattered. It looked like the aftermath of a disaster; there was not a single spot of flat ground.
The two were cultivators who had comprehended states. Every move they made moved the energy of heaven and earth.
Occasionally, fire blazed, and lightning flashed in the surroundings of their fight.
However, Xiao Chen’s Azure Dragon’s Holy Might infused with his state. Furthermore, it had undergone the baptism of the Heavenly Daos; it was much stronger than his opponents.
After two hundred moves, Luo Huang slowly fell into a disadvantaged position. Xiao Chen took the opportunity to chase after him, not giving his opponent the chance to attempt a final stand. The strong state of massacre infused with the state of thunder once again.
A red light appeared in the purple saber light. The sharp state of massacre instantly made the berserk state of thunder very sharp and horrifying.
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
Xiao Chen swung his saber three times, and his opponent’s sword move snapped like a dead branch on a tree. Luo Huang could not keep up as Xiao Chen’s Saber Techniques suddenly grew stronger.
Originally, Luo Huang was only at a disadvantage. Now, he was helpless, and his defeat was obvious.
“Ding!”
Xiao Chen sent Luo Huang’s sword flying with his saber. He leaned forward and returned his saber to its scabbard before sending a palm strike at his opponent’s chest.
Luo Huang vomited a large mouthful of blood and flew out of the arena. Xiao Chen had defeated the second challenger from the Holy Land with a palm strike as well.
“Senior Brother Luo!” The two female Holy Land disciples on the platform exclaimed and quickly caught Luo Huang.
After the two girls completed some simple treatment on Luo Huang’s wounds, they did not say anything and simply drew their swords. They headed to the arena to kill Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly, “One is not enough, so you send two? However, the lack of strength cannot be made up for with numbers. What is the point?!”

“Ka ca!”
Xiao Chen drew the Lunar Shadow Saber again. He executed the Azure Dragon Cloud Soaring Art and activated his Windwalk Shoes.
Originally, the Heaven Ranked Movement Technique had already allowed Xiao Chen to surpass regular cultivators in speed.
With the Windwalk Shoes and the Clear Wind Robes, Xiao Chen’s speed increased by thirty percent. He was now at Mach 2.
Only a white figure could be seen in the arena. Boundless saber Qi moved everywhere and unpredictably.
Xiao Chen fought against two by relying on his advantage of speed. He suppressed the two Phoenix’s Passion Palace outer disciples to the point where they could not retaliate.
The two girls held on bitterly, trying to deal with Xiao Chen’s unpredictable attacks. This was a completely one-sided situation. After a hundred moves, Xiao Chen infused in the state of massacre again.
The sharpness of the Saber Technique immediately doubled. The strong force knocked away the swords in the two girls’ hands.
“Bang! Bang!”
Xiao Chen sent out two palm winds, and the two female disciples of the Holy Land were knocked out of the arena with one strike.
The spectator stands were deathly silent. Everyone watched Xiao Chen with astonished gazes.
They originally thought that it was pretty good that Xiao Chen could help them vent their frustrations. However, he defeated four Holy Land’s disciples within a short period. This displayed his strength.
Not only were the people in the spectator stands surprised, but the people on the platform were also shocked. Even Elder Yan wore a stunned expression. Disbelief filled his gaze. It seemed like his brain had temporarily short-circuited.
Although these disciples were the top hundred disciples of the other sect, when they were in an inferior land, they were one-in-the-thousand peak geniuses. How could someone defeat them all in such a short time?
Mu Chengxue, who was on the platform, took a sip of tea. Then, he slowly set the tea cup down. He looked at the white-robed Xiao Chen in the arena.
A revealed smile displayed Mu Chengxue’s pondering. Then, he said indifferently, “I love watching people fall from the sky. The higher you fly, the harder you fall. I will squash you today.”
After Mu Chengxue spoke, a rapidly spinning copper mirror in the depths of his right eye suddenly froze. A white light shot out from the copper mirror.
The white light did not contain any killing intent. It was silent and did not cause any energy fluctuations. Xiao Chen could not react in time and was struck by the white light.
In the next instant, Xiao Chen was alarmed. The bones in his face started to readjust rapidly.
Xiao Chen tried to stop it, but the strange white light made his efforts useless. Nothing he did helped.
Xiao Chen’s original appearance, which the Shapeshifting spell had changed, slowly restored.
Xiao Chen had a delicate and ordinary face as Ye Chen. Aside from his fair skin, he did not stand out. Now, he was once again a graceful, handsome youth with clearly defined and delicate features.
The people on the spectator stands were no strangers to this face. This person’s face was plastered all over the walls of every city.
As long as one entered a city, they would notice the huge posters of this face.
Within the crowd, there were many people who had thought of capturing this person and retrieving the reward.
On the platform, all of the heirs of the noble clans could not be more familiar with this face. Who else could it be? This person was the Xiao Chen who, for over a year, they had searched for.
Up, on the platform, the Guiyi Marquis, Duanmu Qing, Ji Changkong, Hua Yunfei, Shi Feng, and Yan Chixue all showed great changes in their expressions. Even the noble clan elders behind them were incredibly sullen.
Although they had anticipated this, with the result displayed before them, they felt somewhat unprepared.
The person for whom they offered a bounty for so long unexpectedly hid in the Heavenly Saber Pavilion. He had even become the strongest person of the Heavenly Saber Pavilion’s younger generation; his name spread throughout the Xihe Province.
Liu Ruyue’s expression changed slightly. She said, somewhat astonished, “How could Ye Chen be Xiao Chen?”
All of the people in the spectator stands found it hard to accept this truth. Just a moment ago, he was the Heavenly Saber Pavilion disciple, Ye Chen. Suddenly, he was the most wanted person throughout the land, chased by the noble clans.
“Hu! Hu!”
Duanmu QIng, Ji Changkong, Hua Yunfei, and the Guiyi Marquis recovered their wits. They quickly moved and landed firmly in the arena.
Hua Yunfei looked at Xiao Chen and smiled coldly, “After killing the elders of my clan, you hid for more than a year. So, you have been here, in the Heavenly Saber Pavilion. No wonder I could not find you. Even if the Heavenly Saber Pavilion protects you, you will not live beyond today.”
“After killing my uncle, you have to die,” Ji Changkong said expressionlessly as stars flickered in his eyes.
No expression could be seen on Duanmu Qing’s cold and beautiful face. She said indifferently “Between you and me, we can only fight!”
The Guiyi Marquis wore Golden Armor. He slowly drew his Holy Weapon, the Sky Splitting Sword, and pointed it at Xiao Chen. He said, “There had never been anyone who lived after injuring me.”
“Hu! Hu!”
A figure suddenly appeared. It was the Yan Chixie of the Xihe Province’s Yan Clan. He looked at Xiao Chen and said, “My Second Brother is missing because of you. I will not make things difficult for you; just leave behind an arm.”
“Ha ha ha…” Maniacal laughter descended from the sky. It was Shi Feng, flying over quickly. That person said loudly, “Xiao Chen, you did not expect such an ending, right? You humiliated me in Xihe City in the past. Today, I must trample you.”
Xiao Chen closed his eyes and thought to himself, Everyone is coming to take a bite out of me. However, who are you, Shi Feng? You even dare to shout at me like that. Suddenly, Xiao Chen opened his eyes, and a murderous intent appeared on his clearly defined face.
