As the Universe Turns - Chapter 74
Chapter 74 Seizing Fan
After an unknown amount of time passed, everyone held their breath and focused on the flower mist. However, there was no sound coming from inside. Almost as everyone’s hearts turned ashen, a fallen leaf slowly floated out of the flower mist.
“Then … that’s!”
Everyone was shocked. They really saw that it was a leaf, but where did this leaf come from? Even Xiao Yichen couldn’t get out of it. How could this leaf float out?
Just as everyone was shocked, a faint laugh sounded, “Miss, you may lose.”
“It’s Little friend Xiao!”
Everyone was shocked again. The voice was clearly Xiao Yichen’s voice, but they could not tell which direction it came from. Immediately after, the leaves outside the plaza began to circle and slowly gather in the middle. Finally, when the leaves dissipated, Xiao Yichen was already outside the flower mist.
“This … this!”
Everyone was shocked. What kind of spell was this? How did he get out? It can’t be incarnated into those leaves, can it? In the distance, Fu Ling and the others finally breathed a sigh of relief, “I knew that Junior Brother Xiao was the most powerful!”
The purple-clothed woman did not seem surprised at all. She smiled faintly and said, “You are indeed capable of breaking through flowers but not flowers. However, you may not necessarily be able to win steadily.”
As soon as these words were spoken, the people outside immediately became dissatisfied. One after another, they said, “You, how can you not keep your word? Little friend Xiao didn’t even use your Dao Art and broke your flower. Isn’t this considered a victory?”
“Yes, yes! It’s clear that Young Hero Xiao has already won. How can he not win?”
Quite a few people echoed. Unexpectedly, Yichen only smiled faintly. At this moment, he seemed to be more calm than before. His entire body seemed to have been completely reborn. He smiled and said, “No harm, then I’ll accompany the young lady for a few more moves.”
“Young Hero Xiao is quite confident. However, even if we don’t use any profound techniques and dao techniques, how are you going to defeat me with your eyes blindfolded?”
The purple-clothed woman smiled faintly. Although the flower mist was broken, it seemed to be within her expectations. When she heard this, everyone outside held their breaths and focused. Yes, Xiao Yichen was blindfolded now, and this woman’s cultivation was not shallow. As a result, Xiao Yichen was still at a disadvantage.
Yi Chen smiled and said, “Even if the girl is not blindfolded, she may not be able to see more clearly than I do.”
“Oh? Is that so?”
The woman from Zi Yi smiled. As soon as she finished speaking, she saw her figure flickering and rushing towards Xiao Yichen. However, before she could make a move, Yi Chen’s figure instantly disappeared from where she was. Everyone outside blinked their eyes forcefully, as if he had suddenly appeared. Now, he had suddenly disappeared.
“It seems like flowers are not flowers, like mist is not mist. What a flower is not flower, mist is not mist, I will return it to you.”
Suddenly, Yi Chen’s loud laughter came from some direction. Everyone was shocked. Before they could regain their senses, another layer of flower mist quickly enveloped the center of the plaza. However, this time, the flower mist was spreading towards the woman from Zi Yi.
“What … what’s going on!”
Not only was the hearts of the various sects outside shocked, even the expressions of the Lianhua Palace disciples on both sides of the palace also changed in horror. How could this person learn “flowers are not flowers” so quickly? No, it’s impossible …
The flower mist enveloped the woman from Zi Yi in an instant. She could no longer see what was happening inside and could only hear the woman’s loud laughter, “Haha! What? You tried to trap me by using this technique on an ad hoc basis?”
Xiao Yichen laughed again, “No, no, no. Xiao doesn’t want to trap the girl.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the sounds of fighting could be heard from inside. Only then did everyone outside realize that the flower mist could not trap the woman from Zi Yi. However, being in the flower mist, they could not see anything clearly. Even if they opened their eyes, there was no difference between blindfolding and blindfolding. In this way, the woman’s advantage would be completely lost.
“Powerful! Powerful!”
Quite a few people outside nodded their heads. This time, they really admired Ling Yin, this disciple. They couldn’t use the cultivation methods of Xuanqing Sect and Ling Yin, so they could use each other’s cultivation methods to return the favor. This was not a violation of the rules, right?
“Junior Brother Xiao really has a way!”
Far away, Poria and the others were also so excited that they were unable to speak. At this moment, outsiders thought that Xiao Yichen had won because he had retrieved their sect’s Profound Arts Heart Technique. However, to them, Junior Brother Xiao had greatly won glory for Xuanqing Sect this time, and it was even more exciting than winning the championship in the Heavenly Sect Association two years ago.
The sounds of fighting could be heard from within the flower mist. Everyone was getting anxious. Finally, the flower mist slowly dispersed. Two figures flew out from within. The two of them followed closely together. Xiao Yichen charged straight up and almost stuck to the Zi Yi woman’s face, making it impossible for her to use any more moves.
“You …”
When the woman from Zi Yi saw him chase after her, she instinctively pointed at the void and quickly retreated. However, Xiao Yichen clung to her tightly like clay. Her left hand suddenly stretched out and grabbed onto her slender waist. This scene shocked many Lianhua Palace disciples behind her and they all shouted, “Little thief Wu! How presumptuous!”
The woman in Zi Yi was also shocked. She did not expect him to suddenly use this move. Just as she was about to push him away, she felt half of her body go numb. Immediately after, there seemed to be a thin bolt of lightning running through her entire body. Xiao Yichen’s right hand had already brushed past her arm. He lightly tapped her wrist with his two fingers and grabbed the folding fan from her hand.
“You …”
Being seized by him so rudely, the woman in Zi Yi seemed to have finally lost her balance. She slapped him on the face. Unexpectedly, Yi Chen’s body was like a swimming fish, and she instantly let go of her. She lightly tapped her toes and landed on the ground.
“Good! Good!”
As soon as Yi Chen landed on the ground, a thunderous cheer rang out from outside. Everyone from the various sects excitedly nodded their heads. This time, they had taken all the weapons from her hands. If this wasn’t considered a victory, then it would be too dishonest!
Yi Chen had a smile on his face, his left hand behind his back, and his right hand holding the folding fan. He gently waved it open. Looking at the scene of willow catkins flying and the two lines of small words on it, he smiled and said, “It seems like flowers are not flowers, and no one cherishes the pendant.” Thinking about it, he was ruthless and thoughtful … “As he spoke, he raised his head and looked at the woman, smiling.” So it seems that spring is three minutes, two minutes of dust, and one minute of water. Young lady, please forgive me. ”
“Young Hero Xiao is indeed incomparable to those mortals.”
The woman in Zi Yi put her hands behind her back. Seeing him say the last sentence of this rare word, she smiled sweetly. Although she had lost, she did not have the appearance of a little girl gnashing her teeth after losing. Instead, she looked like a man. She raised her hand and said, “I am willing to admit defeat. Someone, return the things to them.”
Two women immediately came out of the palace. With a wave of their hands, dozens of books flew out of the plaza. When the elders of each sect saw that it was their own sect’s secret book, they immediately went forward to catch it. The woman from Zi Yi said, “I, Lianhua Palace, keep my word. I have returned the secret book to you. I have absolutely not copied any of them. Everyone, please leave.”
After saying that, she turned around and strode towards the palace. Xiao Yichen stretched out his hand and said, “Miss, wait a moment, your fan.”
“No need.” The woman put her right hand behind her back and raised her left hand. Her entire body looked valiant and valiant. She smiled and said, “I’ll leave you as a souvenir. I’ll come back to retrieve it another day.”
The meaning of this sentence seemed to be that she was still very unconvinced. In the future, she would have to compete with Xiao Yichen again. Yi Chen smiled and said, “In that case, I’ll take care of this fan for the time being.”
“Delivery.”
The woman raised her hand again. Two disciples of Lianhua Palace immediately came over from outside the main hall. Since the people from the various sects had already retrieved their books, they naturally did not pursue any further. They only wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.
After leaving the Hundred Flowers Valley, the people from all the sects came to thank Xiao Yichen. Although these people had “treated a gentleman with a petty heart” earlier, they had just seen Xiao Yichen’s ability and saw him put in all his effort to retrieve their books. If he did not even say thank you at this time, then it would really be a loss for the words “righteous and famous sect”.
“Little friend Xiao, thank you so much. After you return, say hello to your respected teacher on my behalf.”
Seeing that the elders of the various sects had come to thank him, Yi Chen felt a little relaxed. Occasionally, being a “hero” was simply more enjoyable than winning the championship in the Heavenly Gate Martial Arts Association. He smiled and said, “Seniors, you have spoken too much. This junior should naturally be polite and polite.”
After arriving at a wide forest, Yi Chen saw that Senior Sister Fu Ling’s brows were tightly knitted and asked, “What happened to Senior Sister?”
Fu Ling looked at the smiling elders not far away and whispered, “I was worried that the person from Lianhua Palace left the fan to Junior Brother just now. I’m afraid that Junior Brother will be in trouble if word of it gets out. If the Sovereigns find out about it, I’m afraid it won’t be good …”
‘”Senior Sister, there’s no need to worry. There were so many people who saw me defeat that person just now. Moreover, even if Yi Chen was recognized as a Devil Religion, it was also a magic treasure that I seized from a Devil Religion expert. If I were to say it out loud, it would only spread my name as Xuanqing. Why not?” Said Lianhua Palace with a smile.
“Brother Xiao is right,” Guisi said with a smile. “Sister Fu Ling is overthinking it.”
‘”Oh, alright then” Fu Ling pouted and glared at Guisi. “You’ve only known someone for a few days, but she’s already short. Don’t call her Guisi, just call her familiar. You shouldn’t be embarrassed.”
Upon hearing this, the two senior sisters on the side couldn’t help but cover their mouths and smile, “Aren’t you also saying ‘Big Brother Si Que’ quite smoothly?”
Fu Ling blushed at her words and raised her hand, “Besides … I’ll hit you guys.” Yi Chen smiled and said, “Siqi, it seems that Senior Sister will have to ask you to take care of her in the future.”
Seeing that even he had come to tease him, Fu Ling’s face turned as red as sunset. “Xiao … Junior Brother Xiao, if you say anything else, I will hit you …” Only then did he realize that something was wrong. “Wait, Junior Brother Xiao, what do you mean by that?”
Yi Chen smiled and looked at the rolling mountain ranges in the distance. “I was originally going to train alone this time. Next, I will naturally travel around the world to see if there is an end to this ancient land of Xianyuan,” he said.
“Ah? Junior Brother Xiao, aren’t you coming with us?”
The two senior sisters beside him were also a little surprised. Yi Chen smiled at them and said, “How about it? If the two senior sisters are reluctant to part with me, then come with me.”
“Pei pei pei.” The two Senior Sisters immediately rolled their eyes and spat, “ExcellencyYaoguang is usually so serious, but you talk so glibly all day long. You should think about how to please Junior Sister Nichang back home. If you leave without complaint, Junior Sister has been unhappy for a few days.”
Upon hearing Junior Sister’s name, Yi Chen felt as if something had stabbed into his heart. How could he have left without saying goodbye? However, she did not even try to persuade him to stay … Forget it, Qiushui was already ruthless, why bother to think about it again?
