The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 881: Not Convinced

Chu Dongxiong’s eyes were fierce!

To defeat Old Seven, he had paid a considerable price, using a special spiritual artifact that could save his life in critical moments. Once this artifact was activated, the attack power it generated was roughly equivalent to that of a Saint Realm First Stage practitioner.

The gap between the Dao Emperor Realm Peak and the Saint Realm First Stage was immense.

Back when Jing Yan was still at the Dao Emperor Realm Peak, how fierce was his combat power? It could be said that the entire Heavenly Origin Continent couldn’t find a second Dao Emperor Realm practitioner as strong as Jing Yan. Yet, when facing a Saint Realm practitioner from the Gai Family, Jing Yan almost had no ability to resist.

This shows how high the value of a special spiritual artifact that can match the full-power strike of a Saint Realm First Stage practitioner is!

Using this special spiritual artifact made Chu Dongxiong feel distressed, but for the sake of saving face, he went all out. If he were defeated by Old Seven, it would truly be a disgrace. He couldn’t even defeat one of Jing Yan’s subordinates, so how could he have the face to participate in the literary contest between the Chu Family and the Jade Book Sect?

Chu Zhen let out a sigh of relief upon seeing Old Seven being knocked back.

He originally thought Chu Dongxiong could easily defeat Jing Yan’s subordinate, but unexpectedly, Jing Yan’s subordinate was a purely body refining martial artist with such terrifying strength. He had just been nervously sweating for Chu Dongxiong!

Only now did the tension in his eyes dissipate, replaced by a touch of joy.

However, as soon as this joy appeared, it suddenly vanished.

They saw that the knocked-back Old Seven, after landing, stood firm as if his feet were embedded in the ground, not falling down at all.

How is this possible?

His body was directly struck by Chu Dongxiong’s sword light, even for a body refining martial artist, it shouldn’t be this tough, right?

"Young one, you do have some tricks. But if you’re thinking that this little bit is enough to defeat me, Old Seven, that’s impossible!" Old Seven smiled slightly at Chu Dongxiong and then charged at him again.

The black long knife in his hand slashed out quickly.

Chu Dongxiong was dumbfounded, quickly defending with all his might. The two figures entangled with each other again.

Jing Yan stood not far away, watching the contest with a smile. He had long anticipated the outcome, so he wasn’t worried. To suppress Old Seven, at least a Saint Realm practitioner was needed. Even a Saint Realm practitioner couldn’t destroy Old Seven.

All the Chu Family members present had peculiar expressions. They had all seen Chu Dongxiong’s sword light strike Old Seven, but there wasn’t a single wound on Old Seven’s body.

The resilience of this body was simply terrifying.

Could it really be that Chu Dongxiong couldn’t defeat one of Jing Yan’s subordinates?

Where exactly did Jing Yan find such a powerful subordinate?

"This person called Old Seven is indeed very strong," Chu Lianxing whispered to Fang Ruoyu.

"Miss, this Old Seven is probably the weakest among the six of them," Fang Ruoyu chuckled.

"What?" Chu Lianxing showed a surprised expression.

"He’s called Old Seven, and with him are his Sixth Brother, Fifth Brother, all the way up to his Second Brother. That Second Brother’s strength is the most frightening. Although I haven’t seen him in action, I’ve heard them mention it over a few days of interaction," Fang Ruoyu said. She had spent several days in the Qiankun Small World with Old Second and the other puppets.

Jing Yan had also told her that Old Second and the others were not humans but puppets.

Because there were many people around, Fang Ruoyu couldn’t explain the true identity of Old Second and the others to Chu Lianxing.

The fight between Old Seven and Chu Dongxiong lasted for nearly half a cup of tea, and the result was decided. ƒгeewebnovёl.com

Old Seven’s attacks could always maintain the strongest power. However, Chu Dongxiong couldn’t do that. In the battle, his primordial energy was consumed quickly. When the primordial energy was depleted to a certain extent, his attack power would drop, so his defeat was predestined from the beginning. In less than half a cup of tea, he was directly beaten to the ground by Old Seven.

"Young one, now you see the power of Old Seven, don’t you?" After knocking Chu Dongxiong down, Old Seven put away his long knife, returned to stand beside Jing Yan, and said from afar.

At this moment, Chu Dongxiong climbed up from the ground with a hideous expression, looking fiercely at Old Seven and Jing Yan.

In front of so many people, being knocked down by Old Seven made Chu Dongxiong feel more embarrassed than ever. If he had lost to Chu Qingyao or Huang Yishan, it would have been somewhat acceptable, but losing to one of Jing Yan’s subordinates was something he couldn’t accept no matter what.

He was unwilling!

Chu Dongxiong’s face was so dark that it seemed like it could drip water.

Deputy Commander Chu Zhen’s expression wasn’t good either. Chu Dongxiong’s defeat was equivalent to a slap on his face from Jing Yan.

But, there was no reason to get angry.

The match between Chu Dongxiong and Jing Yan’s subordinate had been witnessed by everyone present. Chu Dongxiong was defeated; could he still blame Jing Yan? There was no reason!

If Jing Yan were just an ordinary martial artist or a regular member of the Chu Family, it might be easier. But Jing Yan was Chu Lianxing’s son, and with Chu Lianxing present, how could he trouble Jing Yan without a good reason?

"Jing Yan, your body refining martial artist subordinate is very strong!" Chu Xianlie smiled warmly and said, "Being able to refine the body to such an extent is truly remarkable, very impressive."

"Old Seven just has a sturdy body; when it comes to strength, he’s quite average," Jing Yan smiled lightly and said.

"Jing Yan, there’s no need to be modest. If even Chu Dongxiong falls slightly short, your subordinate’s combat power must be comparable to seasoned Dao Emperor Realm Peak Martial Artists," Chu Xianlie waved his hand and said.

At this moment, he was already thinking about whether to ask Jing Yan for help to let Old Seven represent the Chu Family in the upcoming contest. If Old Seven fought, he would certainly be more suitable than Chu Dongxiong.

Chu Xianlie was pondering how to ask Jing Yan for help or whether it would be better to have Chu Lianxing convey the request.

"Jing Yan, don’t get too smug. In a real life-and-death battle, I may not necessarily lose to Old Seven. Also, what good is it for your subordinate to be strong? It’s not like you are personally strong! If you really have the ability, come and fight me yourself!" Chu Dongxiong gritted his teeth as he heard Chu Xianlie’s words, unable to swallow the anger.

Jing Yan looked at Chu Dongxiong.

"I told you, you’re not qualified to fight me," Jing Yan squinted his eyes.

"Chu Dongxiong, let it go! You’ve already lost, so don’t say more. Besides, having such powerful subordinates is also Jing Yan’s capability," Chu Xianlie advised, looking at Chu Dongxiong.

"Lord Commander, Jing Yan is too insidious. I can see he deliberately provoked me into fighting his subordinate. Who knows where he found this body refining martial artist subordinate to embarrass me? I, Chu Dongxiong, will not accept this!" Chu Dongxiong said loudly.

"Hmph, I want another match. Jing Yan, don’t you have six subordinates? If you have the nerve, don’t send out that Old Seven!" Chu Dongxiong said fiercely.
