I became a Sword Emperor in the Martial Arts World

Chapter 156 Snatching a Man in the Street

Wuyue Plaza is the most bustling commercial district in Linjiang City.

Today happens to be the weekend, and as evening falls, couples holding hands and embracing can be seen everywhere on the pedestrian street, creating a warm and romantic atmosphere amidst the dazzling night view.

However, the desperate cries for help soon shattered the peace and tranquility of the night.

"Help! Someone please help me!"

Huang Liwen cried out for help in a hoarse voice, desperately trying to break free from a small, delicate hand: "Ye Xin, please let me go! The legal marriage age in Dongji Kingdom is 22 for men and 20 for women. We're not old enough!"

"Hmph, the laws of the Eastern Pole Kingdom don't apply to me. You'd better obediently come back with me and get married."

"No! Help!"

Huang Liwen's cries for help attracted a lot of attention, but no one intended to help him. Instead, they thought it was just a fight between lovers.

On the pedestrian street, quite a few men wished they could kick him away and take his place.

He's being dragged around by such a pretty girl, and he's still not happy about it?

I really want to beat this show-off to death!

"Ye Xin, we're still young, we can't do this!"

Huang Liwen struggled incessantly, feeling extremely resistant.

Yao Yexin looked at Huang Liwen's handsome face and let out a silvery laugh: "Huang Lang, you said before that you would be good to me for life, could it be that all those words were lies?"

After saying that, her jade-like hands squeezed Huang Liwen's wrist so hard it cracked, as if she wanted to crush his bones, and she kept increasing the force.

"No! Absolutely not! I'm telling the truth!"

Huang Liwen was almost in tears, cursing Ye Qingzhou in his heart: "You idiot Ye! You've really ruined me! You said girls online were easy to fool, and I actually believed you!"

And so, under the envious and teasing gazes of the crowd, Huang Liwen was forcibly dragged away by the enchanting Yao Yexin, much like a couple in the throes of new love who had just had a minor argument.

"Ye Xin, where are you taking me?"

"Of course, it's the Joyful Sect."

"!!!"

Huang Liwen's heart sank. He had heard a lot of rumors about the Hehuan Sect. This sect, which was dominated by women, liked to use men as vessels for cultivation.

"No! I don't want to be a power bank!"

"Hehe, that's not up to you."

Yao Yexin wrapped her arms around Huang Liwen's waist, clearly intending to forcibly abduct him. However, just as she was about to use her movement techniques, a sword light as clear and cold as moonlight fell from the sky.

Clang~

The sound of swords echoed in my ears, melodious and lingering, like a gentle breeze, carrying the hazy and enchanting light of the moon, magnificent to the extreme.

Yao Yexin frowned slightly, her tone clearly displeased: "Since Sister Yan is here, why won't you show yourself?"

Release them.

A cool, clear voice rang out under the moonlight.

Then a figure dressed in white came stepping on the moonlight. Her face was covered by a light veil, revealing only a pair of bright eyes as clear as water.

Although her face was obscured, her demeanor was like a gentle rain in an empty mountain, giving people a sense of purity and detachment from worldly affairs. She exuded an ethereal aura, untouched by the dust of the world.

"Hmph, Sister Yan, you jest. I found him first, and we've already pledged our lives to each other. You're a saintess, you can't possibly try to steal a man from a vixen like me, can you?"

"Further words are useless; take this sword."

Clang~

The famous sword, Azure Sky, was drawn from its sheath with a resounding clang. In an instant, the silvery moonlight illuminated the night sky, bringing with it a mesmerizing and dreamlike spectacle that captivated all who beheld it.

Huang Liwen's eyes were glazed over, clearly captivated by the exquisite sword light, his mind wandering and his will broken.

Yao Yexin, however, remained clear-eyed and quickly pulled Huang Liwen behind her. At the same time, she drew her famous sword, Ningguang, and slashed out with a cold, sharp light, forcefully shattering the "moonlight" before her.

The chilling sword energy stirred the wind and clouds, and frost and snow slowly fell from the sky. The condensed moisture caused the surrounding temperature to drop by more than ten degrees.

Even though he was wearing a coat, Huang Liwen was shivering from the cold and kept sneezing.

"Sister Yan, your Illusionary Moon Divine Light Sword has improved quite a bit, but with just that, it's probably not easy to defeat my Ice Soul Frost Sword."

Awakened by the cold, Huang Liwen was completely bewildered by the scene before him: "Ladies, you can chat and joke as you please, but could you please let me go first?"

"Hehe, no way."

Yao Yexin licked her rosy lips: "I finally found the reincarnation of the Yellow Emperor. I can't bear to let you go without taking your primordial yang."

Hearing the beautiful woman before him so bluntly express her desire for him, Huang Liwen felt both proud and worried, and he burst into tears: "My goodness, what reincarnation of the Yellow Emperor? That's all made up! You must be mistaken!"

At this moment, he was filled with regret: Pighead Leaf has ruined me!

If Ye Qingzhou hadn't asked him to scam rich women online, Huang Liwen wouldn't have had such wicked thoughts. He used the "I, Qin Shi Huang, send money" trick, falsely claiming that he was the reincarnation of the Yellow Emperor and was looking for his soulmate in this life, wanting to cultivate the Great Dao together and achieve harmony in life.

As a result, the rich woman wasn't fooled, but a crazy woman was!

Huang Liwen thought he was lying, but Yao Yexin didn't think so: "The Six Desires Devouring Demon God Scripture's intuition is infallible, otherwise Sister Yan wouldn't have come, right?"

Yan Xiyue, the fourth-ranked Holy Maiden of the Hehuan Sect on the Hidden Dragon List, is clearly not from the Eastern Pole Kingdom, but rather from the ancient human race within the cave heaven, just like Yao Yexin.

Tonight, they have all come for Huang Liwen, wanting to seize the primordial yang power of the reincarnated Yellow Emperor.

In ancient times, the Yellow Emperor had relations with three thousand women, leaving behind the mythical legend of ascending to heaven in broad daylight.

The founder of the Hehuan School received a portion of the Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic and from it comprehended the cultivation method of Yin and Yang interacting and jointly comprehending the Great Dao.

Unfortunately, neither the "Seven Emotions Illusionary Dream Heart Sutra" nor the "Six Desires Devouring Demon God Scripture" can achieve true unity of spirit and body, transcend limits, and enter the realm of celestial beings.

At most, one can only cultivate to the level of Martial Saint, and there is no way to advance further.

Therefore, successive generations of Hehuan Sect practitioners have been searching for the reincarnation of the Yellow Emperor, hoping to obtain the Yellow Emperor's primordial yang power and combine it with their own cultivated primordial yin power to achieve yin-yang fusion, break through the upper limit of their cultivation techniques, and enter the realm of heaven and man.

Yao Yexin wanted it, and Yan Xiyue wanted it too. There was only one share of the Yuan Yang Power, so it obviously couldn't be divided equally.

Clang~

The sound of swords clashing echoes as two women vie for a man!

The moon is high and the frost is cold.

Both of them had reached the point where their swordsmanship was in perfect harmony with their essence, energy, and spirit. When they made a move, their sword techniques were often interspersed with mental techniques, and various mental illusions emerged one after another.

Dressed in white, Yan Xiyue possessed a beautiful face and bright, clear eyes. Her cool and aloof gaze made her seem like a fairy from the moon palace, noble and elegant.

Wearing a black and red dress, Yao Yexin was equally stunning, possessing a captivating charm that could bewitch anyone. Every glance and smile was alluring, like a fox, mesmerizing all who beheld her.

Being fought over by two stunning beauties at the same time should be something any man could be proud of.

But Huang Liwen didn't think that way; he just wanted to be alone.

"Pighead Leaf! Come save me!"

"Hey, Brother Wen, is this how you treat someone who saved your life?"

Under the dazzling starlight, a tall figure gracefully descended, surrounded by a gentle breeze. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes, and a slight upturn at the corners of his mouth, carrying a confident and composed smile.

"Why are you only arriving now?"

"It's because you didn't turn on your phone's location services."

As soon as Ye Qingzhou landed, Huang Liwen scrambled to his side and hid behind him, as if he had found a powerful backer. He said to Yao Yexin and Yan Xiyue, "Don't do anything rash! My brother is a super fighter!"

"Brother Wen, are these two your wives?"

Ye Qingzhou's gaze swept over Yao Yexin and Yan Xiyue's stunning faces, and he was slightly amazed by their looks and temperament. Then he looked at Huang Liwen with amusement: "Impressive, I'm starting to look at you in a new light."

"I was almost taken back to be used as a breeding slave, and you're still laughing!"

Huang Liwen looked aggrieved; this wasn't the kind of relationship he wanted.

"Why don't you just agree? With the looks of these two, you won't lose out."

"Get out! I want to go home!"

Huang Liwen rejected Ye Qingzhou's suggestion without hesitation.

He wants a sweet and sour romance, not to be captured and used as a breeding vessel, to be used for procreation every day. What kind of person would he become then?

Therefore, even though Yao Yexin and Yan Xiyue were both incredibly beautiful, he refused them without hesitation.

At this moment, the two women, both from the Hehuan Sect, also stopped fighting.

Their gazes all turned to Ye Qingzhou.

Ye Qingzhou looked directly at Yao Yexin and Yan Xiyue: "Gentlemen, forced relationships are never happy. How about we just let this go for my sake?"

Who are you?

"Ye Qingzhou".

"Ye Qingzhou, ranked seventh on the Hidden Dragon List?"

Yao Yexin's lips curled into a disdainful smile: "You think you can stop us?"

A silvery laugh rang out, and the Ice Soul Frost Sword was activated silently.

In an instant, snowflakes began to fall from the sky, covering the earth in a blanket of white. An extremely cold force rapidly spread from Ye Qingzhou's feet, attempting to freeze his body into ice.

"Sigh, since you won't listen to my words, then I'll use my sword to teach you the principles of being a person."

Clang~

With a flick of his fingers, the Yan Emperor Sword was drawn, twirled in Ye Qingzhou's hand, and landed steadily in his palm.

Fire, rising dragon!

Burning with emotion, Ye Qingzhou's power surged instantly. He shattered the solid ice beneath his feet with a single step, and then flashed to appear in front of Yao Yexin in the blink of an eye.

Rising Dragon Sword!

This sword strike was clearly more terrifying than the combined power of the intermediate-level martial art, Waves of Revolution. Ye Qingzhou, who had already mastered the Flaming Sun Treasure Seal, was now a master of "playing with fire."

Fueled by inner rage, Ye Qingzhou unleashed a powerful attack with a rising dragon strike, dealing ten times the force of his previous strike.

The terrifying slash was powerful enough to split mountains and shatter peaks!

Before the sword even arrived, Yao Yexin was already drenched in cold sweat before this terrifying attack, her heart trembling with fear: "The Flame Emperor's Legacy, the Flaming Sun Treasure Seal!"

Yao Yexin immediately understood that she had kicked a hornet's nest. She hurriedly used the "Six Desires Devouring Demon God Scripture" technique to try to interfere with Ye Qingzhou's mind and consciousness, but it was too late!

Ding~

Although she raised her sword to parry, Yao Yexin still couldn't withstand Ye Qingzhou's Rising Dragon Strike. She was sent flying backward, looking disheveled.

"Yan Xiyue, let's join forces!"

"it is good."

Faced with a formidable foe, the two women instantly set aside their past grievances and joined forces to attack Ye Qingzhou.

Yan Xiyue's sword flashed, and the cool moonlight shone down from the sky.

Under the hazy night sky, Ye Qingzhou was momentarily dazed, as if he were seeing the most beautiful scenery in the world right before his eyes.

Unfortunately, his vision was blurry, making it difficult for him to see clearly.

But the more difficult something is to see clearly, the more we want to explore it; this is the human instinct of curiosity.

"A sword technique that can evoke the instincts of the mind? How truly peculiar."

Ye Qingzhou's flawless sword heart shone with brilliant light, completely severing the moonlight that lingered in his heart, and his mind and will regained their clarity.

With a casual wave of his hand, he unleashed a fiery dragon-shaped sword aura at Yan Xiyue.

The Fiery Dragon roared furiously, moving at an incredible speed, grazing Yan Xiyue's skirt and hair, and shattering a small mountain behind her.

Rumble~

After the loud bang, the mountain peak, hundreds of meters high, was split in two, sending up a large amount of debris and dust.

A bead of cold sweat quietly slid down the fairy's beautiful face.

Yan Xiyue froze on the spot, her expression changed, and she exclaimed in surprise, "Emperor Yan's Divine Sword, Innate Bing Fire!"

Yao Yexin, who was about to launch a pincer attack on Ye Qingzhou, stopped in her tracks in astonishment. Ye Qingzhou's sword strike had shattered all her confidence and pride.

If Ye Qingzhou hadn't shown mercy, Yan Xiyue would probably be dead by now.

And Yao Yexin was the same.

She glanced at Ye Qingzhou, who had been handling things with ease from beginning to end, and immediately understood that the man in front of her hadn't used his full strength at all.

"Still causing trouble?"

Ye Qingzhou looked at the two of them calmly, and said in a tone as if he were scolding naughty children, "If there's nothing else, I'll take Brother Wen back first."

"etc!"

Yao Yexin was very unwilling.

"What, do you still want to keep fighting?"

"Hmph, Ye Qingzhou, the Hehuan Sect will never give up the reincarnation of the Yellow Emperor. Even if you have a divine weapon, do you think you can stop a Martial Saint?"

The Hehuan Sect is a force with a Martial Saint presiding over it!

Ye Qingzhou expressionlessly took out the Golden Scale Emperor's Decree: "Martial Saint? I'm so scared. If your Hehuan Sect has any ability, then go into Lingyun Cave Heaven and beat me to death in front of Kang Jinlong."

"..."

Yao Yexin gritted her teeth in anger. The man in front of her actually possessed the Golden Scale Emperor's Decree?

Could he be a descendant of Kang Jinlong?

There's no reason for it!

How could someone who is not human possibly inherit the legacy of the Flame Emperor?

Who exactly is he?!

In the end, both Yao Yexin and Yan Xiyue could only watch helplessly as Ye Qingzhou took Huang Liwen away.

On the way back, Ye Qingzhou couldn't help but take a few more glances at Huang Liwen: "Brother Wen, I never imagined you were actually the reincarnation of the Yellow Emperor?"

"No way, I just made that up."

"Then why don't you just say you're Qin Shi Huang?"

Ye Qingzhou didn't believe it was a coincidence at all. Could the Holy Maiden and the Demoness of the Hehuan Sect have mistaken each other for one another?

"I never expected you to be like this, Brother Wen."

"Get lost! What reincarnation of the Yellow Emperor? I am who I am, a unique individual!"

Huang Liwen clearly doesn't want to be the Yellow Emperor; he just wants to be himself.

Otherwise, if he were possessed by the Yellow Emperor, wouldn't the original personality that belonged to "Huang Liwen" be equivalent to being dead?

He could never accept this.

To prevent any accidents, Ye Qingzhou brought Huang Liwen back to Jiangshan Imperial View and asked Yingyue and Youruo to keep an eye on him.

As soon as Huang Liwen entered the house, he saw the hot-bodied Yingyue and the adorably dazed Youruo. He immediately exclaimed, "Holy crap, Lao Ye, you're keeping a mistress, and you even have a daughter!"

"Hide your head, they're all my pets."

"Pet...?"

Huang Liwen's nose started bleeding, his mind racing with all sorts of inappropriate images for children. He then looked at Ye Qingzhou with disdain: "Scumbag."

Ye Qingzhou ignored him, told Yingyue to keep an eye on the person, and then went out again, took out the Golden Scale Emperor's Token, teleported into Lingyun Cave Heaven, and personally ran to Tiange Peak.

"Senior Kang Jinlong!"

"I am here."

On Tiange Peak, Kang Jinlong sat cross-legged in human form, his eyes closed, his chest rising and falling slightly as he inhaled and exhaled a massive amount of primordial energy.

"Speak, what do you want with me?"

"Senior, are you familiar with the Hehuan Sect?"

"Yes, I've heard about it."

"Then, does the reincarnation of the Yellow Emperor truly exist?"

"Oh? You actually managed to find the reincarnation of the Yellow Emperor?"

Kang Jinlong finally opened his eyes and looked at Ye Qingzhou in surprise.

"Unfortunately, he's my deskmate..."

"..."

Such luck and such an opportunity left even Kang Jinlong speechless.

"So, what the people from the Hehuan Sect said is true?"

Ye Qingzhou's expression was solemn. If the Yellow Emperor were to truly reincarnate, it would be a blessing or a curse for the human race today, but for Huang Liwen himself, it would certainly be a curse.

He didn't have many friends, and Huang Liwen could be considered one of them.

Although this guy is unreliable and often gets himself into trouble, we've still met.

Ye Qingzhou still wanted to make a quick buck if he could.

Kang Jinlong laughed and said, "Don't worry, the Five Emperors made an agreement long ago, vowing to never descend to the mortal realm again. The so-called reincarnation of the Yellow Emperor is actually a misunderstanding by the Hehuan Sect."

"Hmm? What do you mean by that, senior?"

"After the Yellow Emperor ascended to heaven, he separated a portion of his essence, energy, and spirit and released it into the world, where it was continuously reincarnated as a human. Strictly speaking, this is a living inheritance."

"A living legacy?"

Ye Qingzhou was shocked. It was already incredible enough that Emperor Yan and Xing Tian left their legacy in Emperor Yan's mausoleum in Yanling Cave Heaven before their deaths.

But the Yellow Emperor's side went even further, passing on the legacy to a living person?

Kang Jinlong said with admiration, "The Five Emperors each left behind a legacy for the continuation of human civilization, hoping that before the final calamity arrives, all living beings will not be powerless to resist."

"The final tribulation?"

Ye Qingzhou felt extremely uneasy just hearing those two words.

Kang Jinlong glanced at Ye Qingzhou but didn't explain much: "Knowing too much before reaching the Martial Saint realm won't do you any good."

Well, this is a riddle dragon!
