Heavenly Star (Web Novel)

Feng ChaoYang’s spiritless pupils of the eyes were both flickering with exclaim in admiration, he simply unable to believe that, a young man less than twenty years of age, was unexpectedly able to resist a hot from him with thirty percent of his strength. And now, he was using his Shattering Wind Blade to ward off Ye Wuchen’s vengeful attacks one by one, yet he didn’t have a single chance to strike back.

The ground surface cracked open, the nearest which was the imperial study room had caved in, transformed into a ruined area. That terrible hitting sound had caused a wide expanse of fright within the imperial palace, the sound of women screaming occurring again and again, one after another they hid inside their rooms refusing to come out.

A slash, another slash, and another slash…… with each slash heavier than its previous one, now that Feng ChaoYang appeared to be like his absolutely irreconcilable foe. The release of power had caused his body to relax a lot, the ruthless air which had been accumulated up was slowly being released out. In his arms Ning Xue still remained motionless, as if that sudden surge of energy that was enough to smash a huge rock into pieces and the ear-splitting striking sounds weren’t able to wake her peaceful sleep.

“Master…… quickly run away, don’t fight with him anymore, this old grandpa is really powerful, you will not be able to defeat him.” Nan-er yelled out anxiously, but Ye Wuchen turned a deaf ear, with each hit his sword pierced at the vital parts of Feng ChaoYang.

“Boo hoo…… Master, he is similarly powerful as Xue FeiYan during that day, it will be impossible for you to defeat him…… although master’s strength was greatly increased…… but now even he just stands there without moving, it will still be impossible for master to even injure him…… master, quickly run……”

Bang!!!

With full strength he stroke a hit, but was firmly blocked off by the Shattering Wind Blade, the ground surface below their feet simultaneously subsided. Feng ChaoYang’s eyes flickered, shook his wrist, with a cold groan produced by Ye Wuchen, his body was directly pushed off by an irresistible strong force, making a straight mark on the ground surface more than thirty meters long.

Feng ChaoYang didn’t pursue and attack, he raised up the Shattering Wind Blade, his gaze dropped on the blade. On the originally flat and smooth surface of the blade, with astonishment a tiny gap appeared on it that wasn’t easy enough to get noticed.

“Nice sword.” He lifted up his gaze, indifferently exclaimed.

He simply didn’t know that, the sword in Ye Wuchen’s hands was actually the Star Chopper Sword that everyone knew, yet nobody was able to personally see it.

From afar, on the roof of a building, Feng Lie was watching the two of them, his brows creased. The place where they fighted had been tragically destroyed, Feng Lie didn’t have the time to feel sorry for all the damages, underneath his calm composure, were great waves of anxiety that was difficult to calm down.

“His strength had already exceeded the three of us, if today he was able to walk away, his achievements in the future might exceed our expectations.” The old man in the yellow robe who took Feng Lie away from the scene said. “Even the God of War whom we had rarely encountered, when he was in his age his achievements were far different from his.”

Upon hearing these words, Feng Lie kept his silence.

“The God of War was having a heart for appreciating the young talent, after all, such incomparable genius whoever encountered will be reluctant to destroy such talented person. Now he was just using thirty percent of his strength, in a short duration of time he has no intention to kill. I think, he was just examining, observing how this young man would react under his control.” another old man wearing a black robe who was together with the yellow robed old man reacted with a sigh.

A while ago when Ye Wuchen and Feng ChaoYang clashed, Feng Ling who got slightly involved felt the wound on his chest almost looked as if it will rupture, yet he still refused to leave. He was covering his chest that was having a sharp pain, looking at the figures that moved with the fluttering flames in the distant place, in a deep voice he said: “If we didn’t eliminate this person today, it the future he will cause unending troubles.”

“That’s right.” Feng Lie firmly nodded his head, “If this son was born into our Gale Nation, it will be our Gale Nation’s huge blessing. But he was born into the Ye family, fortunately…… he appeared at this earlier time, or else in the future he might become our Gale Nation’s great catastrophe. Although Elder Feng has a pity heart over those talented persons, but he will certainly do what he had said, today, he will surely die. To be able to die in the hands of our Gale Nation’s God of War, he will have no regrets in this life.”

The three old men went silent at the same time, their gazes were fixed at the distant place, quietly observing the young man who was protecting a girl his arms with one hand, the other hand holding a sword, fearlessly rushing towards the God of War, their hearts which remained tranquil for so many years continuously throbbing. Before this, he had gone too far as to hostage both the emperor of the Gale Nation and Princess Feng Ru under the watch of Feng ChaoYang, they were aware that, ever since Feng ChaoYang had guarded the royal family of the Gale Nation, speaking of taking hostage, even a tiny strand of hair of everyone in the Feng family remained unharmed. With such boldness, capability, and strength…… what kind of odd man was he…… What kind of future will he possess…...

They knew that the God of War was similarly expecting to see his future, if it wasn’t for his previous commitment, if he didn’t cruelly kill Feng Ru, he must be unwilling to see this man to be destroyed. Because such kind of young man, perhaps will never appear again in the future.

Ye Wuchen attacked in succession, never stopped to rest. But Feng ChaoYang didn’t have the killing intention all along, because the red light on Ye Wuchen’s body went stronger and stronger, the energy was still quickly increasing, the pressure he brought on every attack became heavier and heavier each time. He wanted to know, what will be his extreme limit.

Bang!

Ye Wuchen’s body directly flew out, then steadily dropped to the ground. He hugged Ning Xue tightly, wiped off the blood stains in the corner of his mouth, with his sword pointing at Feng ChaoYang, he said gloomily: “Today…… you will die, and not me!!”

He clashed forward again, the Star Chopper Sword slashed out a fire colored arc…...

And at this time, Feng ChaoYang didn’t ward it off like he did previously, he met Ye Wuchen’s sword power, then gently and slowly slashed out…… the trajectory of the slashing movement of his blade was incomparably slow, Ye Wuchen could easily see its trajectory path, however, this obviously slow-moving blade, almost seemed to slow down the time in their surrounding, Ye Wuchen who had launched his attack in advance haven’t completed his hacking movements, yet the Shattering Wind Blade had already issued a majestic wave of air that seemed to make the entire earth collapse as it approached, subsequently his eyes got dazzled, the single blade turned into three blades, then transformed again into more than ten blades…… multiple blades…...

His heart went aghast, before he could think of retreating back, on his chest, and in his arms a sharp pain spread through, the tremendous power knocked him off once again. Ye Wuchen flipped two rounds in the air then stumbled as he fell to the ground, his right chest and right arms were already bleeding continuously.

In a distant place, the yellow robed old man solemnly said: “Looks like, the God of War was preparing to have his intention to kill. Alas!”

He evidently knew that he should not sigh like this in front of the emperor, but his long sigh still produced from the corner of his mouth uncontrollably, exposing his helplessness and deep regrets.

Ye Wuchen used his Wuchen power to heal the injuries in his arms and on his chest, Feng ChaoYang’s attack was targeted on the lower half part of his body, the God of War had his pwn pride, he wouldn’t dare to hurt the young girl who was carried in his enemy’s arms. The hit he made a while ago, he still used just a thirty percent of his strength, what he had brandished, was the so called “Single Blade Facing the Wind” owned exclusively by the God of War himself.

“Your sword skills weren’t in order, apparently, Chu CangMing didn’t teach you anything about the God of Sword’s spells. The level of your strength was far greater than what I had expected, if you carried out with full force, it will be barely enough to resist my thirty percent of power, but you have spent half of your strength to protect the young girl in your arms, with your powers being scattered, your heart will run rapidly…… Put her down now, I will not hurt her, let me see how high will be your extreme boundary?” said Feng ChaoYang indifferently.

Ye Wuchen used the sword to support himself, as he slowly stood up, not only did he refused to let go of Ning Xue, but instead he grabbed her more tightly.

Feng ChaoYang with a long sigh: “I don’t want to kill you, why did you compel me to kill you…… Launch your attacks now, this time, I will show no mercy.”

Ning Xue’s both arms were tightly wrapped around Ye Wuchen, using her greatest strength.

“Nan-er…… help me.” Ye Wuchen adjusted his breath, healing his own injury, then yelled out from his consciousness.

“I…… I was trapped inside the sword, I can’t go out and help master, woohoo……”

“Then tell me, with my current strength, how much power can I handle from this Star Chopper Sword?” asked Ye Wuchen with concentration.

“Ah? Let me see…… Oh right, master, based on your current power, perhaps you will be able to handle the first pattern of the Three Patterns of Southern Empire…… maybe, there is a possibility!” Nan-er seemed to have remembered something, as she became excited all of a sudden.

“The Three Patterns of the Southern Empire?”

“Uh-huh…… the formidable powers of the Star Chopper Sword was greatly focused on the Three Patterns of the Southern Empire, they were classified as ‘Heaven and Earth Split Open’, ‘Broken Blue Dome of Heaven’, ‘Death of Star’. I remembered the god-level of strength will be able to use the First Pattern Heaven and Earth Split Open, based on master’s sudden increase in your powers, you could roughly be considered as half a god-level master now, perhaps…… perhaps after you have concentrated all your strength, you will be able to make it.” replied Nan-er excitedly.

“Then how do I use it!”

“...... Ah? I don’t know……”

"..."

Ye Wuchen exhaled heavily, controlling the Wuchen power inside his body that was becoming more and more tangled. Several minutes have passed from the moment he had consumed the Heavenly Fire Dragon Fruit, the scorching heat inside his body still haven’t completely fade away, his potential powers inside his body was still being ignited one by one, transforming into an energy that seemed almost wanted to break open his body. He lifted his gaze and said: “You proved yourself to be Feng ChaoYang, indeed you are the God of War…… but don’t you think that killing me is a simple task, the sword in my hands, doesn’t need any pattern, nor any tricks!!”

With a loud roar, Ye Wuchen’s eye expression turned cold in a blink of an eye, he didn’t raise his sword, his body abruptly rushed forth, as fast as a flicker of lightning. His current speed, was already the fastest that anyone could imagine, in a brief moment he arrived before Feng ChaoYang. Feng ChaoYang remained calm, facing his body, his drew out a simple slash using his blade.

But in an instant before his blade came into contact with his body, Ye Wuchen had unexpectedly disappeared before his eyes, and beside him, a robust blow of sword chopped down at him with fury…...

With a heavy smothered sound, the Star Chopper Sword ruthlessly hit Feng ChaoYang’s left waist, but it was as if striking on the hardest rock in the world, yet it had been completely isolated externally, not a slightest part of the sword burrowed in, and Feng ChaoYang strike back in an instant, Ye Wuchen quickly withdrew his sword to ward off the hit, the blade and sword interlocked, Ye Wuchen spitted out blood as he flew out backwards, the Star Chopper Sword fell out of his hand, dropping into the ground ten meters away from his left side, slanted as it pierced on the ground.

“What happened a while ago?” in a distant place, the old man in the black robe said alarmingly. A while ago when Ye Wuchen rushed forth he had strangely used a method of right angle shifting, then maintaining his speed as he dashed against Feng ChaoYang’s side, if he didn’t personally witnessed it, he would never believed that a person would be able to achieve such outrageous action. Because it had violated the rules of the nature. The law of “inertia” seemed to completely disappear from his body.

The other two old men were simultaneously stupefied: “It’s really unbelievable, with such strange method of attack, the God of War had undoubtedly fall into the trap, this person is becoming more and more interesting. But too bad, the God of War is not an expert in offensive attacks, but he sure is on the defensive side…… he is not the exact match of the God of War at all. Hay!”

Ye Wuchen covered his chest, coughing painfully, spitting out mouthfuls of blood, his facial muscles were violently twitching, he stared at Feng ChaoYang, with gritted teeth he said: “I…… will not…… die here, the person who will die is you…… it’s you, you……”
