Rebirth of Devouring Dragon Emperor

Chapter 283 A Bit Cool (Fifth Update)
The man talked about everything, basically saying everything that needed to be said.

There was no expression on Ye Qing's face, but he was quite satisfied in his heart.

"Do you know its origin?"

he asked again.

From this small piece of sword, one can roughly infer the characteristics of the sword.

Slender but without edges, completely black, with a slightly rough surface, and extremely cold.

Swords with such characteristics are extremely rare.

Therefore, if there are records, it is easy to determine its origin and identity.

The man heard this and shook his head.

"From this broken sword, we can indeed roughly infer the characteristics of the complete sword, but in the past few years, we have searched through various records about famous swords, but have not found any that match this."

The man said, "It seems that it has no reputation at all, and there is no record of it. Senior, this is all I know, and I really have nothing to hide."

Ye Qing nodded.

It is actually normal that there is no record.

After all, there are many magical weapons in the world of cultivation, but there are only a few whose fame can be passed down for thousands of generations.

Not every sword can compare to the Four Swords of Zhu Xian.

Not all swords are called Xuanyuan.

There are so many nameless but powerful swords.

Ye Qing turned his head and focused his gaze on the small piece of sword again. After a pause, he stretched out his hand and wanted to take it out.

"Senior, be careful!"

When the man saw this, his face suddenly changed and he couldn't help but shout out.

Ye Qing turned a deaf ear to it.

Seeing this, the man stopped talking, but soon his eyes widened.

Ye Qing's hand touched the broken sword.

Then, Ye Qing picked it up!
"This……"

The two men looked at each other in amazement.

Ye Qing, picked up the broken sword fragments with just his bare hands?
They couldn't help swallowing.

This is really... so depressing!

You know, no matter how many times they tried, they couldn't get within half a meter of the sword tip.

One meter away, it felt okay. Although it was cold, it was nothing for a monk.

But when you get within one meter, the degree of coldness increases with every inch you get closer.

Both of them were at the peak of the middle stage of the innate realm, but even if they tried their best and used all their skills, they could not get within half a meter of the fragment.

The fact that Ye Qing could open the box with his bare hands and hold it in his hands, looking safe and sound, was enough to shock them.

It was precisely because of this that they were certain that Ye Qing was indeed stronger than them, and that was why they chose not to hide anything from Ye Qing’s inquiries.

But they never thought that Ye Qing could actually touch the broken sword with his bare hands!
You know, you have to touch it with your hands and pick it up!

"Senior, you...you don't feel anything?"

The man asked with his eyes wide open and stammering.

"Ok?"

Ye Qing played with the broken sword in his hand for a while, then turned and looked at the man: "What do you mean?"

Seeing Ye Qing's actions, both of them were speechless.

Ye Qing was actually playing with the broken sword!
Just like playing with a small toy, turn it over and over!

This……

What else could they say?

Their mentality completely exploded, and a deep sense of frustration surged from the bottom of their hearts, making their faces bitter.

"Senior, in order to take that thing down, we tried many kinds of cold-resistant materials, hoping to take it down from a distance."

The man smiled bitterly and said, "But most of the materials were frozen and deformed as soon as they got close to it. There's no way to remove it."

"The ice around it was extremely hard, and even many magic weapons could not break it. We broke the ice and then used tools made of special materials to remove it. The whole process took a long time, nearly half a year, and the energy and investment we spent is incalculable."

He paused for a long time before continuing, "The icy power emitted by this thing alone is enough to hurt a strong person. Senior, you hold it in your hand... don't you feel anything?"

The man stared straight at Ye Qing's hand with an expression that showed he couldn't accept it.

How perverted is Ye Qing!

They couldn't even get close to something, but they took it just like that.

And it seems that there are no side effects at all.

And what about them?

Just getting within half a meter would cause my hands to freeze and turn blue, and I would lose consciousness.

They simply couldn't imagine what would happen if they touched this thing.

I’m afraid their hands will be completely disabled!
Even powerful monks are no exception.

How did Ye Qing do it!
"Of course I don't feel anything."

Ye Qing said casually: "This thing, um... is a bit cold."

"..."

The three people from Shangqing Sect were completely speechless.

A bit cool?
What is this nonsense!

What's the difference between this and saying he doesn't feel anything at all!
This statement is a complete blow to them!

I can’t stand it!

But I have to endure it.

What Ye Qing showed really shocked them, and they didn't have the courage to go against Ye Qing.

If they provoke such a powerful person, it will not only bring disaster to them, but also to the entire sect.

Can't be bothered, can't be bothered!
"I want this."

After playing with the broken sword fragments for a while, Ye Qing put them away, closed the box and said.

When the box was covered, the surrounding space seemed to be freed from its frozen state.

The air warmed up.

"Yes, senior."

The man exhaled a breath of cold air and smiled bitterly.

What else could they say in the face of Ye Qing's request? They didn't dare to refuse at all.

With Ye Qing's strength, how could they dare to say no?

Even if I say it, it's probably useless, because Ye Qing is clearly robbing.

The difference is that Ye Qing just gave them a way out.

When Ye Qing took a fancy to this thing, the ending was already determined.

"Don't worry, I won't take your things for nothing."

Seeing the grief-stricken expressions of the three people, Ye Qing immediately said, "I will give you something as compensation."

Hearing this, the three looked at each other.

"Senior, what compensation do you want to give us?"

The man asked cautiously.

He didn't think that Ye Qing would compensate them after taking the things, so he was still a little surprised.

Although they felt that what Ye Qing compensated them with was definitely far from comparable to the broken sword fragment, it was better to have something than nothing anyway.

Moreover, Ye Qing's move also means to ease the relationship with them.

If I could keep in touch with a strong man like Ye Qing and establish a relationship with him, then giving him the broken sword fragment wouldn't seem like such a loss.

The three of them looked much better.

"That depends on you."

Ye Qing said: "I have a lot of things, skills, martial arts, elixirs, treasures... I probably have everything you want. Treasures are relatively few, after all, there are some things that I don't have the time or energy to help you get, but other things are simple."

"Of course, if you don't want these, I can also make you a promise and agree to help you do something. I owe you a favor."

Ye Qing said: "You can choose what you want."

After Ye Qing finished speaking, the three of them looked at each other, with a conflicted look on their faces.

After a while, the old Taoist showed a firm look on his face and asked, "Senior, we want a promise from you."

No matter how good the things are, can they compare to Ye Qing’s favor?
Although they were not clear about Ye Qing’s specific strength, he still felt that this was the best choice!

"wise."

Ye Qing smiled when he heard this and said calmly.

"Senior, I have a request."

The old Taoist smiled when he heard this, and then said: "However, this is just a small request from me. It's extra, not a promise from you. I wonder if you can satisfy it?"

As he spoke, he looked at Ye Qing with anticipation on his face.

"explain."

Ye Qing’s words were concise and to the point.

"Senior, I want to fight with you."

Hearing this, the old Taoist rubbed his hands and smiled a little embarrassedly: "You are definitely much stronger than me. I really want to fight with a strong man, so I would like to ask you to take my full-strength attack and give me some advice."

"Of course, don't hurt me!"

Ye Qing was a little surprised when he heard this.

He looked at the Taoist priest and found that he really had no other intentions and seemed to just want to have a fight with him.

"can."

Upon hearing this, Ye Qing nodded immediately.

"Thank you, senior!"

The old Taoist was overjoyed when he heard this, but his expression soon became serious.

He quickly gathered his aura, leaped forward, and rushed towards Ye Qing, while blasting out with his palm: "Senior, be careful!"

The palm wind whistled, carrying with it a majestic momentum, rolling over, fully demonstrating the strength of a grandmaster!

Chu Xian and the other three felt the enormous pressure and retreated one after another.

If this palm was not dissolved and hit the store instead, there is no doubt that the store would collapse directly!

This old Taoist is really careless. He just does it here. Isn’t he afraid of destroying things in the store?

The two men were shocked when they saw this.

"Brother, stop it!"

One of the men turned pale and shouted, "Don't you want any of these treasures in this store?"

The old Taoist was shocked when he heard this.

But at this time, his palm had already reached Ye Qing's chest, and it was too late to withdraw his hand.

"Senior, help me!"

The old Taoist had a bitter face. He now only hoped that Ye Qing would not dodge, but face it head-on.

Otherwise, everything in his store would be ruined!

Ye Qing chuckled when he heard this.

He suddenly stretched out one hand and grabbed the old Taoist's arm.

click!
Ye Qing accurately grabbed the old Taoist's arm.

The majestic momentum seemed to stagnate, and then suddenly dissipated.

click!
With another sound, the old Taoist's neck was grabbed by Ye Qing and lifted up.

"Senior, please spare your life!"

The old Taoist was lifted up by Ye Qing like a salted fish. After struggling for a few times, he found that it was of no use. His face turned pale immediately and he begged for mercy loudly.

On the side, two men were also horrified.

"Senior, please spare my life!"

The two were terrified and immediately knelt down and pleaded for the Taoist priest.

Ye Qing didn't say anything, but he let go of his hand.

Pfft!
The old Taoist fell to the ground, his whole body limp.

He was breathing heavily and couldn't stand up for a long time.

He raised his head and looked at Ye Qing, his eyes full of horror.

In that brief moment just now, he felt like he had been to the gates of hell and his heart was filled with fear.

"Thank you, senior, for sparing me!"

After a while, he smiled bitterly and said, "Senior, your strength is unparalleled. I am completely convinced!"
