Zhanxian (Immortal Executioner)

Chapter 708: Sword Qi

At this point, Elder Min couldn’t care less about complaining about Yang Chen, and in shock, she could only protect him with her life source flying sword, hoping to block Shi Shanshan’s blow, and then drag Yang Chen to a safe place.

What Elder Min never imagined was that when she had already risked her life to reject the sword qi, desperately trying to lose hundreds of years of cultivation, trying to pull Yang Chen away. But she grabbed Yang Chen’s shoulder and pulled, Yang Chen’s body seemed to have taken root in place, and he didn’t move at all.

Shocked, Elder Min was about to remind Yang Chen loudly, but found that Yang Chen had already thrown his Immortal beheading blade one step ahead of her.

The Immortal beheading blade is Yang Chen’s life source flying sword, Elder Min is not very clear about this, he only knows that Yang Chen likes this sword very much and keeps it with him all the time. Seeing that Yang Chen was a bit over his head and planned to use this knife to block Shi Shanshan’s sword qi, she couldn’t help feeling anxious. However, Elder Min also knew what was going to happen, at this time, Yang Chen must not be hurt. She could only use her life source flying sword to step up to resist Shi Shanshan’s sword qi.

Yang Chen’s Immortal beheading blade came first, and directly met the invisible sword qi. Chick, a slight sound reached Elder Min’s ears through the sea water, and the scene she expected that Yang Chen’s Immortal beheading blade would be shattered into pieces, and then the sword qi slashed at Yang Chen without hesitation did not appear, but after that soft sound, there was no more movement.

Seeing this scene, Elder Min, who was still very anxious just now, turned into a wood carving, with her mouth gaping, and she stood there with her head turned to watch, without moving a muscle.

How can this be? Elder Min knew exactly how powerful Shi Shanshan’s sword qi was. Even if the distance is still far away, the power of the sword qi has been greatly reduced, but it is not something an ordinary magic weapon can bear. Even the shields refined by several Dacheng stage masters in the sect couldn’t block it. What kind of material is Yang Chen’s Immortal beheading blade that can take such a blow?

“This is made from the scabbard that was holding Shanshan’s sword qi back then.” Yang Chen knew that his performance was a bit shocking, so he explained softly to Elder Min. The matter of Shi Shanshan’s acquisition of the sword qi is no secret among the elders of the Green Jade Immortal Island, Yang Chen has no need to hide it.

“Sword scabbard?” Elder Min’s complexion finally improved a little, which can be explained. Otherwise, a Dacheng stage master from the majestic Green Jade Immortal Island would not be as good as a junior from the Pure Yang Palace in her own territory, it would be a shame.

The Green Jade Immortal Island loves and hates Shi Shanshan as a disciple. Those who hate her are naturally those factions of Elder Bei and Liu Zizhi, but now they have been purged and suppressed, and they basically have no say in the sect.

The ones she loves are the Island Master and Elder Min. Shi Shanshan’s cultivation qualifications are already excellent. Especially after getting married with Yang Chen in the later period, the benefits the Green Jade Immortal Island received are indescribable. It’s a pity that they didn’t pay enough attention to such a disciple before, and even suppressed her within the sect, which made Elder Min feel sorry for Shi Shanshan.

This time for Shi Shanshan seclusion, in addition to absorbing the Supreme Pure Yang Sword Qi, another reason may be that she feels a little ashamed of meeting Yang Chen. On this point, Elder Min also felt it was a pity, but there was nothing she could do about it. This disciple has always been assertive, and they didn’t care enough so persuasion is largely ineffective.

Ever since Elder Min was almost injured by the sword qi, the Green Jade Immortal Island understood. This time, Shi Shanshan definitely had a great opportunity. How can ordinary people imagine such a level of sword qi? As long as Shi Shanshan is firmly controlled, it is not impossible for the Green Jade Immortal Island to surpass the Greatest Heaven Sect in the future.

The sect elders like it and worry about it at the same time. What they like is that the sect may grow stronger because of Shi Shanshan, but what worries them is that they may not get her understanding. Now that Yang Chen took the initiative to come, the Green Jade Immortal Island also saw the opportunity to completely dispel Shi Shanshan’s dissatisfaction, so even if she was injured, Elder Min still wanted to protect Yang Chen.

Seeing that Yang Chen blocked Shi Shanshan’s sword qi easily, Elder Min couldn’t help but admit that many people underestimated Yang Chen’s family. They are all at the Yuanying stage, but their fighting power is no less than that of a Dacheng stage master. Even Elder Min doubts whether the supreme elders of the sect will be able to block Shi Shanshan’s full-strength sword.

Shi Shanshan has been in retreat, although the retreat time was getting longer, many reactions are not her subjective consciousness, but purely subconscious reactions. Just like attacking outsiders who approach at any time, it has become an instinct of Shi Shanshan, and she herself was still cultivating in seclusion.

Both Yang Chen and Elder Min understood this state, and they didn’t rashly startle Shi Shanshan, but stopped after getting close to a certain point. Then Yang Chen began to protrude the thread of spiritual awareness, and spread it out quietly, bit by bit, he began to stimulate Shi Shanshan who was immersed in her cultivation.

This process alone lasted for more than two years. It also made Elder Min fully understand how much Yang Chen cares for Shi Shanshan.

Finally, under Yang Chen’s constant stimulation, Shi Shanshan felt the discomfort outside, which gradually accumulated to the point where she had to wake up. After putting away all the aura in her body, including all the sword qi in her body, Shi Shanshan ended her closed-door seclusion and stood up.

Shi Shanshan’s actions were all under the attention of Yang Chen’s spiritual awareness. As soon as Shi Shanshan finished her retreat, Yang Chen and Elder Min had already come to her. Seeing her husband suddenly, even with Shi Shanshan’s usual coldness towards others, she instantly smiled and threw herself into his arms.

Elder Min was stunned again, never expecting that Shi Shanshan would lose her composure in front of Yang Chen. In this way, it made Elder Min a little embarrassed, but leaving was not enough, so she could only cough softly to remind Yang Chen and Shi Shanshan that she was still beside them.

Shi Shanshan’s face was tender, and she immediately realized that she had lost her composure, she hurriedly pushed Yang Chen away with a blushing face, and bowed to Elder Min.

“What’s the result of the retreat?” Elder Min helped Shi Shanshan up, carefully sizing up this unparalleled female disciple of her sect, and asked casually, and at the same time reminded Shi Shanshan: “Yang Chen has been waiting for you for more than two years.”

“Thank you, Elder, for your care.” Shi Shanshan replied politely, and at the same time gave Yang pChen a look full of tenderness. If Elder Min wasn’t by her side, she would have shared her heart with Yang Chen long ago.

“It’s still too early to fully absorb the sword qi, but this disciple can already control the sword qi and cut five swords.”
