Li Cunxu spurred his horse toward Luzhou City, muttering to himself:
"I'm really looking forward to the day when I can truly face him..."
Mirror Heart Demon followed behind, his eyes flashing with cold light.
After the Battle of Luzhou, the Liang army returned directly to the capital.
Li Xingyun, as the only spoils of war, was imprisoned at the Xuanming Sect headquarters.
Logically speaking, he should have received excellent treatment upon arriving at this branch of the Bad Guys.
However, it is not.
Because he had previously offended many bad guys at Jiaolan Palace.
Therefore, he was subjected to all the necessary shackles and imprisoned in a dark and gloomy cell.
It is guarded by the water and fire judges who have abandoned darkness and embraced light.
Inside the council hall, Qin Chuan sat on the throne that originally belonged to the Underworld Emperor Zhu Yougui, pondering how to legitimately get rid of Li Xingyun, this troublesome individual.
Suddenly, a commotion arose outside, as if someone had forced their way into the Xuanming Sect.
Qin Chuan stepped forward and arrived outside the main hall.
Surrounded by a crowd, Shi Yao was confronting a tall, red-haired man.
"Isn't this the Ghost King?"
Qin Chuan smiled slightly, dismissed the crowd, and came to Shi Yao's side, standing shoulder to shoulder with her, facing Zhu Youwen.
When Yuan Tiangang killed Zhu Yougui, Zhu Yougui's blood seeped into the underground chamber where Zhu Youwen was imprisoned.
Zhu Youwen used the small amount of true energy contained within to break free from the restraints.
He already knew that.
Because he had no ill feelings towards Zhu Youwen, he did not stop him.
"Today, I, the King, will reclaim the Xuanming Sect!"
Zhu Youwen stood with his hands behind his back, his aura seemingly connected to heaven and earth, clearly having broken through to a realm above the Great Heavenly Realm.
Those who oppose me shall perish!
He spoke coldly, and the aura he exuded caused the well-trained thugs around him to involuntarily retreat, their faces filled with fear.
"More than that, right?"
Qin Chuan remained completely unaffected and smiled faintly:
"You don't want to seek revenge on me?"
“Every wrong has its perpetrator, and every debt its debtor. Zhu Yougui has already paid off his debts. As for you, I was outmatched back then, so there’s nothing more to say.”
Zhu Youwen gave a light snort and said:
"Even if you lose to me today, I will not kill you, as long as you tell me the location of the Dragon Spring Treasure!"
"Do you believe that the Dragon Spring Treasure contains a divine martial arts manual that can make you the best in the world?"
Qin Chuan smiled helplessly.
That old codger Yuan Tiangang has really caused a lot of harm.
They fabricated the Longquan Treasure and fooled countless people.
First, it was his brother-in-law, the real Prince Qi, Li Maozhen, and now even the Ghost King, Zhu Youwen, has been fooled.
"You don't need to tell me whether it exists or not. I'll find it myself once I discover it!"
Zhu Youwen said arrogantly and conceitedly:
"Make your move, let me see if your swordsmanship has improved over the years! Or, you can try that so-called Huayang needle technique again!"
During his years of imprisonment, he not only broke through to a level above the Great Celestial Realm, but also figured out how to break the Huayang Needle Technique.
In his opinion, Qin Chuan's only interesting skill was his swordsmanship.
"If you want to see my swordsmanship, then so be it."
Qin Chuan gently pressed the moon reflected in the well.
Although he had long since reached the level of "no sword is better than having a sword", he still preferred to use the Well Moon Sword.
Nothing more than his good looks!
The sword, like a moon emerging from its sheath, unleashed a magnificent and powerful light that pierced straight towards Zhu Youwen.
"Only eight years! His swordsmanship has reached such a level!"
The arrogance on Zhu Youwen's face vanished instantly.
Qin Chuan's strike was too stunning. The moment the blade flashed, Zhu Youwen felt a terrifying blade intent pierce his heart.
"I refuse to believe you can surpass me!"
Although Zhu Youwen was shocked, he did not believe that he was no match for Qin Chuan.
He stepped forward, standing in mid-air, his body filled with yin energy, like a true ghost king. He threw a punch, creating a huge fist imprint, and struck Qin Chuan's stunning blade!
Chapter 58 Subduing the Ghost King
Qin Chuan drew his sword from the ground, while Zhu Youwen threw a punch from the sky.
Both of them were at the Great Celestial level, and their single exchange of blows shook the entire Xuanming Sect headquarters.
Even a powerful expert like Shi Yao, who was at the Great Heaven Realm, had to retreat and stay away from the center of the battle between the two.
Amidst the clanging of blades, Zhu Youwen's fist imprint suddenly tore apart, and Qin Chuan's blade flashed, cleaving it in two.
Then, he slashed at Zhu Youwen.
Seeing his all-out punch so easily shattered by Qin Chuan.
Zhu Youwen's expression changed again.
It turns out that not only his swordsmanship, but Qin Chuan's internal strength has also made an unimaginable breakthrough, surpassing even his own, who has reached the Great Heavenly Realm!
"I still don't believe it!"
Zhu Youwen suddenly closed his five fingers, crushing the flash of light.
The price he paid was a deep, bone-revealing gash on his chest.
Ignoring his injuries, Zhu Youwen threw another punch!
This punch shattered the air, producing a sound like ghosts howling.
Why deceive yourself?
Qin Chuan sighed:
"You were imprisoned by Zhu Yougui for eight years, and you really wasted your time..."
That last slash was just something he did casually.
Even Zhu Youwen would find it difficult to receive the attack unscathed.
Because Zhu Youwen broke through to the Great Heavenly Realm only after he escaped his predicament.
He had already achieved that level of skill eight years ago.
Although he also secluded himself for seven years, it was not as wasted as Zhu Youwen's time.
Her current skill level far surpasses that of Zhu Youwen.
"If you don't believe me, I'll beat you until you do."
Qin Chuan struck again.
This strike was faster, stronger, and more stunning than the last one!
This strike is no longer a human's blade!
"How can there be such swordsmanship in the world!"
As the blade flashed, Zhu Youwen only had time to let out an incredulous roar before Qin Chuan slashed him down.
Another horrifying and gruesome knife wound appeared on his chest, through which his internal organs were faintly visible.
"What kind of swordsmanship is that?"
Zhu Youwen's face was pale and bloodless. Even though he was seriously injured and on the verge of death, what he cared about most was what kind of martial arts Qin Chuan used.
"It has no name; it's simply the perfect swordsmanship for me."
Qin Chuan sheathed his sword and said calmly:
"By simply copying others' techniques and blindly practicing the secret manuals of past masters, you will never become the best in the world. The most suitable technique for yourself is always the one you create yourself."
"A cultivation technique I created myself..."
Zhu Youwen seemed to be deep in thought. After a moment, he sighed and said:
"I never imagined that I, the Ghost King Zhu Youwen, who has pursued the title of the best in the world for half my life, would not even have grasped this point."
If you even learn someone else's cultivation techniques, how can you claim to be the best in the world?
This simple truth was only understood by Zhu Youwen after Qin Chuan pointed it out to him.
He felt incredibly bitter, as if he would never be able to reach the highest realm of martial arts in his lifetime.
"Let's get started!"
Zhu Youwen was utterly despondent and even gave up the idea of fighting to the death.
Qin Chuan shook his head.
In the original trajectory, Ghost King Zhu Youwen, who was affected by Raojiang Sacred Gu in the Dragon Spring Treasure Box, is probably in his current state.
That's why he voluntarily jumped into the lava to his death.
He felt it was a pity at the time.
Apart from his youngest apprentice, probably no one else's martial arts talent can compare to Zhu Youwen's.
