I saved the entire sect by playing idly by letting things fall apart.

……

Before the match started, both sides were filled with fans from the two sects. The Wenjian Sect had more male fans, after all, they admired strength. The Changming Sect, on the other hand, had a fairly balanced male-to-female ratio, but the fans were all quite strange.

Some called Mu Chongxi "baby," others called Ming Xuan "son," and still others harbored ill intentions towards Zhou Xingyun's beauty.

Before the match, the two exchanged the usual greetings. Ye Qiao, having nothing better to do, asked him, "Hey, does your senior brother sell his underwear?"

"Fine, I knew you were a pervert, lusting after my senior brother for a long time!" he shouted. "You're dreaming. My senior brother's Daoist partner could never be you."

Now everyone outside the arena could hear clearly. Ye Qiao said lazily, "Ha, of course. Your senior brother cultivates the Path of Ruthlessness. In the future, he will have no wife or children, only his sword."

Chu Xingzhi's thought process was a little different. He frowned, dissatisfied: "My senior brother is naturally omnipotent!!"

He firmly believes: "Even without a Daoist partner, my senior brother can have children on his own."

When the sect leader of the Sword Inquiry Sect heard this conversation, he almost choked on his water.

We can't let them keep talking!!

"Hurry up and start." He urged frantically. Damn it, if they keep talking like this, Ye Qinghan might mutate!

Their conversation was abruptly cut short. Chu Xingzhi grew angrier the more he thought about it. He grabbed the Xuan Sword and smashed it into her face. He stomped down hard, and in the blink of an eye, he was in front of Ye Qiao.

The two had fought each other before. Chu Xingzhi was in the late stage of the Golden Core realm, and Ye Qiao had already disappeared from the spot a second before he made his move.

Seeing her evasive manner, Chu Xingzhi's eyes flashed with a hint of mockery as he asked, "Where is your domain, Ye Qiao?"

Yesterday, Ye Qinghan shattered his domain, and it's clearly impossible for it to reappear in just one day. Ye Qiao punched him in the stomach calmly, "I don't need a domain to hit you."

A gentle breeze wafted beneath her feet, so light and ethereal that it was extremely difficult to discern her direction with the naked eye.

What Chu Xingzhi hated most about the Changming Sect was their Ta Qingfeng. It was faster than a rabbit and landed without making a sound. He turned around, but there was nothing there. The next second, Ye Qiao grabbed his shoulder and threw him to the ground, pressing the bamboo shoot against his Adam's apple.

Chu Xingzhi turned his body and, a second before landing, the Xuan Sword was already positioned horizontally against Ye Qiao's abdomen.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.

Ye Qiao said, "Okay. Let's let go together."

"it is good."

After she finished speaking, the two of them attacked at the same time.

Chu Xingzhi thrust the hammer directly at Ye Qiao, who pressed down hard. The magic weapon and the defensive talisman shattered simultaneously. The two, who were still entangled, quickly separated and stood in their respective positions.

Their reaction speeds are all quite fast.

See, trust between people is so fragile and easily broken.

Chu Xingzhi kept Zhu You's instructions in mind: to fight Ye Qiao, he had to take the initiative. He had no intention of hiding his strength. With a single sword strike, his sword intent was clear and bright, like snow and light, and it reflected off and landed on Ye Qiao.

Ye Qiao couldn't dodge this time. One of the talismans shattered, smashing a hole in the arena. Chu Xingzhi's attack succeeded, and he stomped down hard.

Ye Qiao, lying in the pit, calmly picked up the bamboo shoot and was about to stab him in the crotch.

Chu Xingzhi: "..."

He quickly pulled back his leg and used his sword halfway through, and Ye Qiao had already taken advantage of the opening to get up. To be honest, Chu Xingzhi looks quite handsome when he's normal. The young man's expression turned cold, and his sword stance was exactly the same as Ye Qinghan's. But the feeling it brought was completely different.

Ye Qiao, clutching her aching chest, suddenly asked, "What kind of cultivation do you practice?"

The Way of Chu: "Inquiring into the Way of the Heart."

Questioning the Way of the Heart? That would suit his foolish personality. It is said that questioning the Way of the Heart cultivates the mind, and only a pure and clear mind is suitable.

Ye Qiao followed this line of thought and reasonably guessed that Mu Chongxi probably shared the same Dao as him. In the original story, Yun Que broke through his Dao of Inquiry.

The defining characteristic of the Heart-Seeking Path is its excessive sword light, dazzling and domineering. If your reaction is too slow, you can't even dodge it. If it weren't for her defensive talisman, that one strike would have been enough to cripple her.

Ye Qiao also really liked this cool sword intent, and she sincerely asked, "May I switch to your Path of Inquiry into the Heart?"

"What exactly is your Dao?" Chu Xingzhi found her utterly baffling. He had never seen Ye Qiao unleash her sword intent before; was it something shameful?

Ye Qiao hesitated for a moment before speaking, then said, "My sword energy will bloom."

She searched for a long time but couldn't figure out what it was. She had never seen anyone's sword intent bloom at the same time.

Ye Qiao couldn't find any words to describe this kind of path.

Chu Xingzhi was stunned by her silence. His sword struck the bamboo shoot in his hand, and he gasped, nearly breaking it. He sheathed his sword and kicked her in the lower body. Ye Qiao dodged quickly, and the next second, an invisible sword aura bound her tightly. The sword wind was like cutting through bamboo, like a blade, and almost sliced ​​off the ends of her hair with one strike.

After finishing the fight, Chu Xingzhi said, "I don't believe it."

What bizarre path can bloom?

A crisp clanging sound rang out as Ye Qiao's wrist flicked, and she glanced at the audience below the stage. Her swordsmanship suddenly changed, and Chu Xingzhi thought his chance had come when he saw her stop halfway through. However, the staff in Ye Qiao's hand moved like a nimble snake, inch by inch, suddenly approaching him. Chu Xingzhi was caught off guard and almost had his throat slit by her.

Chengfeng Sect's sword techniques are unpredictable and ever-changing, with each of the seventy-two sword techniques being different.

It really works great!

"?"

"I'm going to kill her!!" Qin Huai saw the familiar swordsmanship and was so excited that he wanted to rush up and argue with Ye Qiao, but Duan Hengdao stopped him.

"Calm down, Senior Brother!! It's not too late to seek revenge after she gets out."

Chu Xingzhi clutched his bleeding neck and cursed under his breath. After roughly figuring out Ye Qiao's fighting style, he suppressed her once again. Realizing that Chu Xingzhi had figured out Chengfeng Sect's swordsmanship, Ye Qiao decisively changed her swordsmanship.

Moon Purity Sect Sword Technique.

It can both attack and defend, and its defensive effect is particularly remarkable. As expected of a major sect of talisman cultivators, it has even incorporated defensive techniques into its swordsmanship.

Seeing this, Song Hansheng was about to rush forward and berate her, but Su Zhuo quickly grabbed his sleeve, "Senior Brother, calm down, we can't beat her."

Ye Qinghan: "Once she comes down, we can all go and get revenge on her."

Upon hearing these three ideas, Zhou Xingyun lowered his eyes and began to ponder how to grab Ye Qiao and run away as soon as she came out of the competition arena.

Chu Xingzhi's expression darkened upon seeing the Yueqing Sect's swordsmanship. "You're quite indiscriminate," he added, taking a veiled jab at the Yueqing Sect, "You use swordsmanship from all sorts of sects."

Song Hansheng was implied.

Ye Qiao smiled slightly: "It's good that we can win."

Chu Xingzhi had broken one of her moves, but she still had countless other tricks up her sleeve, waiting for Ye Qiao to unleash the curse seal again. Chu Xingzhi's expression changed; he had witnessed the power of this thing before, and he quickly retreated.

With Ye Qinghan leading the way, he was quite familiar with Ye Qiao's moves. This time, he wasn't so reckless when he went on stage. He brought a defensive magic weapon, so he had no problem protecting himself under the curse seal.

Ye Qiao feinted, the curse seal dissipated, and suddenly gripped the bamboo shoot. The sword light fell, the surrounding grass and trees swayed, and an invisible wind blade almost severed his neck. Chu Xing felt a chill on his neck afterward.

The stone pillar behind him snapped in response, striking the barrier with a loud bang.

Now that Ye Qiao had unleashed her sword intent, she no longer cared about her image. Under the impact, Chu Xingzhi, who was like a whirlwind, was thrown to the ground. He barely managed to steady himself by lightly bracing himself with his hand. He looked up, his expression slightly stunned.

The girl's sword strike was pale green, and after it landed, vibrant flowers bloomed on the ground.

Spring grasses sprout anew. Withered trees come back to life.

That was Ye Qiao's sword intent.

What kind of sword intent is this?

A sword intent that blossoms?

The knowledgeable elder paused for a moment, then seemed to come to his senses, "That child Ye Qiao, does she... govern the Path of All Living Beings?"

"ah."
