Chapter 175 The Weakling of the Fourth Refinement

"It's a bit outrageous for the Hu Kingdom to challenge the Jiang Kingdom."

The onlookers were abuzz with discussion and were quite astonished.

"What's wrong with Hu Kingdom? Don't forget, the Divine General of Li Huo is still here. Yanxi Kingdom is not weak either, and it has the ancient kingdom of Li Huo behind it."

The crowd discussed that Yanxi Goddess had left, but her divine generals remained.

"I could kill your son in Huangxu, and I can kill you here too. What are you so arrogant about?"

Liu Chengfeng sneered, pointing his Falling Star Axe directly at the Sword Emperor of the Distant Desert.

"you--"

The Sword Emperor of the Distant Desert was so angry that he vomited blood, his face turned red, and his killing intent surged.

"Your Majesty Yanxi, are you going to protect the murderer and become an enemy of my ancient kingdom of Yuanmo?"

The Sword Emperor of the Distant Desert unleashed a murderous aura, his imposing presence overwhelming.

"Do I need you to tell me what to do?"

Su Nianyu was cold and stern, and her imperial power was overwhelming. No matter what, she always stood by Liu Chengfeng.

"Fine, this is courting death—"

The Sword Emperor of the Far Desert was enraged, his eyes filled with terrifying murderous intent.

"Seeking your own death? Let's first ask if you can leave alive."

Liu Chengfeng sneered, and together with Su Nianyu, they surrounded the Sword Emperor of the Far Desert, intending to cut off his retreat.

"What an overbearing guy."

Seeing Liu Chengfeng's ruthless and bloodthirsty nature, even daring to kill the emperor of the state, everyone gasped.

The Sword Emperor of the Distant Desert was so angry that he vomited blood. He had the advantage in a one-on-one fight, but he was at a disadvantage when Liu Chengfeng and the others joined forces.

He had no reinforcements at the moment and was in a vulnerable position.

Before the two sides could even make a move, a cavalry force charged in, exuding a powerful demonic aura and an overwhelming imperial presence.

The people around retreated, no longer daring to approach.

"General Xu Xin, General of the Heavenly Prince's Palace."

Many people exclaimed in surprise upon seeing this iron cavalry.

This iron cavalry was the very force pursuing Liu Chengfeng, and its leader was none other than the demon lion emperor Xu Xin.

The iron cavalry swept across the sky, their imposing force aimed directly at Liu Chengfeng.

"You escaped from Huangxu?"

The demon lion emperor Xu Xin's aura was as vast as the heavens, awe-inspiring and domineering, as he looked down upon Liu Chengfeng.

He was ordered to pursue the person, but he didn't know who the person was, only that they were someone who had escaped from Huangxu.

Having just heard that Liu Chengfeng had been to Huangxu, I immediately came to arrest him.

The others remained silent, not daring to say a word. The War Emperor Jinyu ordered the arrest, and the Heavenly Prince carried it out. Who would dare to cause trouble?
"They didn't escape; they walked out."

Liu Chengfeng sneered, showing no fear.

"Very well, you surrender now and come with me."

Xu Xin ignored him and was determined to capture Liu Chengfeng.

"General Xu, if you want to take my swordsmith away, you'll have to ask for my permission first."

Su Nianyu said coldly, "I will absolutely not let anyone take Liu Chengfeng away."

"Your Majesty, please do not make a mistake in the actions of the Tiankui Kingdom."

Xu Xin did not take the emperor of Yanxi seriously.

The power of the Divine Kingdom far surpasses that of the Hu Kingdom, and moreover, the Hu Kingdom must obey the command of the Divine Kingdom.

"It is you, General, who has made a mistake. Do we, the people of Yanxi, need your guidance to participate in the ceremony?"

Su Nianyu was aggressive and refused to give an inch.

Everyone else didn't dare to breathe loudly. To confront the divine kingdom head-on, Empress Yanxi had quite the audacity.

However, Empress Yanxi was in the right. During the divine ceremony, she held the divine decree and was on equal footing with the divine kingdom.

"Your Majesty, are you going to take action?"

Xu Xin's eyes turned cold, his divine might overwhelming everyone present. As a second-level divine servant, he was stronger than anyone else there.

"So what if I fight? I'll just kill you first!"

Liu Chengfeng laughed wildly, pointing his Falling Star Axe straight at the sky, his killing intent soaring into the air.

Everyone gasped. This kid was too arrogant, daring to utter such outrageous words as to kill a general of the Divine Kingdom.

"A mere demigod, overestimating himself."

Xu Xin's anger flared, and the blade flashed like a rainbow in the sky.

"The general asked me first if the gun in my hand agreed!"

Even if Xu Xin was a second-level Divine Servant, Su Nianyu would not back down and raised her spear.

"Kill him—"

Liu Chengfeng laughed wildly, the sea of ​​blood roared, and the four divine treasures thundered. He didn't care about the Heavenly King or the Emperor; he would kill them first.

"Overestimating one's abilities—"

Enraged, Xu Xin ordered his iron cavalry to form a formidable array, their imposing presence overwhelming.

Even the Sword Emperor of the Far Desert gave way, not daring to compete with Xu Xin for the person.

"General Xu, what is it that warrants your mobilization here?"

A major battle was about to break out when Wei Rourou appeared, displeased.

“Miss Wei, I only took away a swordsmith.”

Although Xu Xin was arrogant, he still restrained himself when facing Wei Rourou.

"General Xu, the ceremony has its own rules. All swordsmiths participating in the ceremony are exempt from death, and no one is allowed to take anyone away."

Wei Rourou spoke gently and slowly.

During the Divine Blessing Ceremony, no one is allowed to kill a swordsmith within the sacrificial grounds; otherwise, anyone could threaten and forcibly seize the swordsmith.

“Miss Wei, this humble general is under the orders of the Emperor’s son, carrying out the Emperor’s command to wipe out the remnants of the karmic fire. This person must be taken away.”

Xu Xin was unwilling to let Liu Chengfeng go, preferring to kill a hundred innocent people rather than let one guilty person go free.

Upon hearing the words "the Emperor of War's decree," many people felt a chill run down their spines and took several steps back, not daring to provoke him.

War Emperor Jinyu, the current chief god of the divine dynasty, with the ancient god Shun not appearing, who is more powerful than him?

In the future, he will be the supreme god who rules over the Six Central Divine Dynasty, with unparalleled authority.

"The Sword Pavilion presides over the grand ceremony, and no one is exempt. Does the general intend to break the Sword Pavilion's rules?"

Wei Rourou was displeased. Although she was like a gentle and kind older sister next door, she was a person who was gentle on the outside but strong on the inside.

Even if Xu Xin brought up War Emperor Jinyu and Heavenly Kui Emperor's son, she would not back down.

Those present were startled and exchanged glances.

Although Wei Rourou's words were soft, they carried great weight.

Sword Pavilion holds a very special position in the Divine Dynasty. The founder of the Divine Dynasty, Six-Riding God, was a swordsmith, as was the later Nine Heavens Ancient Radiance God.

Swordsmiths held a high position in the Divine Dynasty, especially the Sword Pavilion, which was the supreme authority of swordsmiths and was not subject to the jurisdiction of the Divine Kingdom.

Moreover, even the main god requested that Master Xu, the master of the Sword Pavilion, forge divine weapons.

Xu Xin's expression changed. He couldn't afford to offend Jianlu, nor did he want to let Liu Chengfeng go.

“If the three-time swordsmith cannot forge a divine weapon, the Yanxi Kingdom will lose its divine opportunity. Your Majesty should expel him and I will forge a divine weapon for you.”

The Sword Emperor of the Far Desert was a swordsmith who understood the rules of the Grand Ceremony better than others, and he sought an opportunity to instigate it.

These words caused a stir among the crowd, and many people looked at Su Nianyu.

Everyone understood that if Su Nianyu expelled her swordsmith, she would lose her qualification, and Xu Xin and the others would not be bound by the rules.

"No need."

Su Nianyu refused outright.

"This is of great importance. If you can receive divine assistance, the rise of the Yanxi Kingdom is possible."

“If you banish him, I will hire a mid-grade fourth-level swordsmith for you, and I guarantee you will obtain the divine qualification.”

Xu Xin thought the idea was good and immediately made the decision for Su Nianyu.

"General Xu, where did you get a mid-grade fourth-level refinement item?" Wei Rourou frowned.

"Young Master Xiao is at the middle level of the fourth level of refinement."

Xu Xin immediately summoned a young man, whose imposing presence was awe-inspiring.

"Xiao Hanye".

Many people were surprised to see this young man.

This young man exuded an awe-inspiring divine power, making it clear at a glance that he was a second-level divine servant with formidable strength.

His eyebrows were sharp and piercing, he wore black soft armor, and stood tall and straight, making him stand out from the crowd.

"Junior Brother Xiao."

Upon seeing the young man, Wei Rourou frowned slightly.

This young man, Xiao Hanye, has an extraordinary background. He comes from the Tiankui Divine Kingdom, entered the Sword Pavilion, and became a disciple of Master Xu Tian.

He is extremely talented, not only a second-level Divine Servant, but also a mid-grade fourth-level swordsmith.

He's much stronger than the Far Desert Sword Emperor.

"Sister."

Xiao Hanye felt a little embarrassed and clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"By order of the Emperor's son, if needed, I can forge a divine weapon for the Yanxi Kingdom."

Although Xiao Hanye is a disciple of the Sword Pavilion, he comes from the Heavenly Kui Divine Kingdom and can be summoned back.

Many people were amazed, thinking that the Heavenly Prince was extraordinary, even Xiao Hanye was willing to serve him.

As everyone knows, Xiao Hanye also wants to obtain the Heavenly Gift qualification.

If he, a genius, could obtain divinely bestowed qualifications, his future would be limitless, and he might even surpass the Heavenly Prince.

Unfortunately, the Heavenly Emperor's son has a good father—the War Emperor Jinyu.

First, they had the help of the Sword Emperor of the Far Desert, a swordsmith of the fourth rank and first grade, and now they have Xiao Hanye's guarantee.

As long as Su Nianyu nods, she will be able to obtain the divinely bestowed qualification.

At this moment, everyone was looking at Su Nianyu; any smart person would know what to choose.

Why not expel the three swordsmiths and gain divine qualifications?
"No need."

Su Yunian refused without hesitation.

The crowd gasped in surprise. Xu Xin and the others were astonished; who could resist such a temptation?

"Your Majesty, you must think this over carefully. This is a once-in-a-millennium opportunity. If you miss it, the next divine gift will come a thousand years from now."

Xu Xin spoke in a deep voice, trying to force Su Nianyu to agree.

"That's right. A master swordsmith with three levels of refinement can't even lock up ten Dao mines, let alone forge divine artifacts. Your Majesty, don't be misled by people."

The Sword Emperor of the Distant Desert started a commotion.

“I will forge a divine weapon for Your Majesty, and Your Majesty can replace him.”

Xiao Hanye also found it unbelievable; to not choose such a good opportunity was insane.

Let alone the declining Yanxi Kingdom, even in the Divine Kingdom, countless princes and princesses who wanted to receive divine gifts didn't even qualify.

"Your Majesty, let's change it. What use can a third-level swordsmith be?"

Even some of Yan Xiguo's disciples tried to dissuade him.

"That's right, a master swordsmith with three levels of refinement can't even enter the sacrificial mountain, let alone receive a divine gift."

They all offered words of advice, urging Su Nianyu to seize this rare opportunity.

"No need to say more, I have made up my mind."

No matter how much others tried to persuade or urge her, Su Nianyu coldly refused.

"Is this insane? They don't even cherish the opportunity that God has given them."

Everyone discussed it and found it unbelievable.

"Your Majesty is giving up the opportunity; I'm afraid you won't even be able to participate in the mountain sacrifice."

Xu Xin's face darkened.

"I'm afraid His Majesty won't be able to find anyone else to forge the divine artifact."

Xiao Hanye also shook his head.

Refusing the goodwill of the Heavenly Kui Divine Kingdom is tantamount to slapping the Heavenly Kui Divine Kingdom in the face, and other swordsmiths will probably not dare to cooperate with her.

"He doesn't know when to advance or retreat, ruining his future for the sake of a three-times-refined swordsmith."

The Sword Emperor of the Distant Desert sneered.

"A bunch of weaklings, what are they yelling about here? With such low skills, they dare to boast and sell themselves. It's shameful."

Liu Chengfeng would never allow anyone to bully Su Nianyu, so he stood up, sneered, and looked around at everyone.

"How arrogant! A mere child of the Third Refinement stage has no right to speak."

The Sword Emperor of the Distant Desert was disdainful and deliberately provoked Liu Chengfeng.

"A bunch of weaklings at the fourth level of training, they're not even worthy of carrying my shoes, get out of here."

Anyone can engage in a war of words, Liu Chengfeng said dismissively.

These words caused an uproar among everyone present, offending all the swordsmiths.

In the eyes of swordsmiths, the fourth level of forging is the highest and most prestigious.

"What an arrogant thing, he doesn't know his own limitations."

Many swordsmiths angrily denounced Liu Chengfeng.

Say it again—

Xiao Hanye's eyes suddenly turned cold; Liu Chengfeng's words had humiliated him.

"When it comes to sword forging, you're not even worthy to carry my shoes."

Liu Chengfeng sneered and looked down at her with disdain.

"Young master has attained a higher level of fire control and sword forging skills. Please demonstrate them."

Wei Rourou's eyes lit up immediately, and she looked at Liu Chengfeng with delight.

"A master swordsmith with three refinements could not possibly possess any fire control techniques. He couldn't even lift the fire from my spirit stove."

The Sword Emperor of the Distant Desert sneered.

"You lowly creature, do you even have the right to speak?"

Liu Chengfeng looked down at him with disdain.

"Come on, if you're so capable, try to take it. If you can't, get out of the sacrificial ground."

The Sword Emperor of the Distant Desert was furious. The fourth-level swordsmith, who was high and mighty, had become a lowly and inferior person in Liu Chengfeng's mouth.

The problem is, he just happens to be of low quality!

"Young man, do you possess such fire-controlling skills? Do you dare to try?"

The Sword Emperor of the Distant Desert took out the Spirit Stove, and silver flames ignited, which he then casually controlled.

"Is this all the fire control you have? Is this all the swordsmiths in the Divine Dynasty are capable of?"

Liu Chengfeng glanced at Yuanmo Sword Emperor, then at Xiao Hanye, and looked down at them.

"When it comes to controlling fire, the three-stage refining process is just child's play."

Xiao Hanye sneered, casually picking up the silver fire from the spirit stove of the Far Desert Sword Emperor, controlling the fire at will.

All the swordsmiths present were skilled, and it was clear to everyone that Xiao Hanye was stronger than Yuanmo Sword Emperor.

"As expected of the Celestial Master's disciple, his fire control technique is unparalleled among swordsmiths."

Everyone praised him one after another.

"Would you like to give it a try, young master?"

Wei Rourou had always wanted Liu Chengfeng to try the Fourth Refinement.

"If you cannot control the Four Refined Silver Flames, you will not leave today!"

Xiao Hanye's murderous intent surged. He was determined to kill Liu Chengfeng for publicly humiliating him.

"A mere child at the third level of cultivation cannot even touch the silver fire; he is not qualified to control it."

The Sword Emperor of the Distant Desert sneered, trying to provoke Liu Chengfeng.
