Chapter 1444 - 1448: I'll Give You One Chance—Speak Properly

Xing Qing swallowed the elixir Yun Hao gave her, stepped back, and asked A Yun to help bandage her shoulder wound.

"Xiu Yun, you finally decided to take action?"

Watching Yun Hao, who had just clashed with him and rescued Xing Qing from his grasp, Cheng Fangtian sneered and shouted.

That palm strike just now, Cheng Fangtian never truly thought it would kill Xing Qing.

He knew Yun Hao would surely intervene at a critical moment.

So, that palm strike was prepared especially for Yun Hao.

Yet unexpectedly, Yun Hao managed to effortlessly rescue Xing Qing despite his palm strike.

It seemed that Yun Hao's cultivation level, even if not restored to its peak, had reached the Divine Realm.

Otherwise, even if Yun Hao were at the Peak of Ninth Grade, he would never have been able to withstand that palm strike!

"I just feared if I acted, you'd be left crying!"

Yun Hao looked at Cheng Fangtian on the opposite side and said calmly.

Despite the lightness of this statement...

... it was full of pretentiousness.

Why would making a move make you cry?

Beating someone up to tears?

Isn't that looking down on people?

Have you ever seen top masters in a showdown, making each other cry?

And when the disciples of Cultivation Cloud Sect heard Yun Hao's short remark, they finally understood a certain matter.

They realized with whom Xing Qing had learned her arrogant attitude.

Indeed, a renowned master produces a stellar disciple!

"Xiu Yun, upon returning this time, I haven't seen much improvement in your abilities, but you've certainly grown more arrogant!"

Cheng Fangtian glared sinisterly at Yun Hao, a slight disdainful smile on his face.

"Youth without arrogance is wasted; moreover, I'm still young, just in my twenties, unlike you all, each hundreds or thousands of years old!"

Yun Hao shook his head, looking quite pleased, especially when talking about age, he came across as almost overly arrogant.

Twenties?

The surrounding people, hearing Yun Hao's statement, were all dumbfounded!

So impressive?

So young yet having cultivated to such a high realm?

This is just too defying of natural order!

"Xiu Yun, have you no shame? You're in your twenties? This year I'm three thousand five hundred years old. When I started cultivating, you had already been prominent for thousands of years. Are you seriously claiming you're in your twenties?"

Hearing such outrageous claims of being in his twenties, Cheng Fangtian couldn't help but loudly counter.

Back when he began cultivating, Xiu Yun's reputation was already legendary, according to the seniors, Xiu Yun was already thousands of years old!

Now you're claiming to be in your twenties.

Geez!

Even the pretense of being young should have a limit!

"Master, you're that old huh..."

After taking the elixir from Yun Hao, Xing Qing's shoulder injury was no longer an issue, her internal injuries mostly healed.

So she lowered her voice and asked upon hearing Yun Hao's words.

"Planning to get spanked, are you?"

Yun Hao glared at Xing Qing slightly peeved, threatening in a low voice.

Upon hearing Yun Hao's threat, Xing Qing stuck out her tongue playfully.

But she whispered something to A Yun beside her, frequently sneaking glances at Yun Hao!

"Cheng Fangtian, I'll give you one chance to speak properly!"

Yun Hao turned his gaze to Cheng Fangtian, a hint of displeasure subtly visible in his eyes.

Blasted bear!

Daring to spread rumors about my age!

If those beautiful girls truly thought I was thousands of years old, wouldn't they all be scared away?

He's still thinking of storming into the Immortal Realm, wandering through sects with many beauties, and enticing a few ladies to warm his bed!

"Speak properly? Haha, if I don't, what will you do?"

Cheng Fangtian sneered dismissively, chillingly gazing at Yun Hao, completely ignoring Yun Hao's threat.

"If you don't speak properly, I'll only have to beat you into speaking properly!"

Yun Hao slowly shook his head, his expression gradually turning cold, and a powerful aura subtly exuded from him.

"Beat me into speaking properly? Arrogant, let's see today who beats whom?"

Cheng Fangtian roared, leaped into the air, a long knife flashing with red light appearing in his hand, slashing downward at Yun Hao.

This blade, its aura dominating!

If Yun Hao dared to dodge, those Cultivation Cloud Sect disciples behind him would be doomed to death.

Facing a strike from a First-Layer Divine Realm master, A Yun and others of his caliber had no means to resist!

So at this moment, those Cultivation Cloud Sect disciples behind Yun Hao all wore expressions filled with tension.

They feared...

Feared that Yun Hao would abandon them at the critical moment!

It's not that they didn't trust Yun Hao.

It's just that many here had only recently been following Yun Hao, so many weren't deeply familiar with him.

Furthermore, most of the time, they rarely saw Yun Hao.

No one knew what Yun Hao's true strength was like!

Seeing the fierce energy released from Cheng Fangtian's blade...

Yun Hao's lips curled into a faint smile, raising his right hand and sending out a palm strike.

Compared to Cheng Fangtian's blade, Yun Hao's palm had a certain casualness.

You might even say, it was so casual that it seemed he was merely playing around.

Done for!

Surely dead!

Numerous disciples of Cultivation Cloud Sect thought silently in their hearts.

Many even closed their eyes, unwilling to see the moment of their death.

Boom!

A thunderous roar shook the crowd, causing those with weaker cultivation levels to bleed from seven apertures, almost dying instantly.

However, amidst the roar, the expected chaotic destructive energy didn't emerge.

Instead, a black hole formed between the blade's aura and Yun Hao's palm.

All the powerful energy generated from the collision was absorbed by this black hole.

After quite some time, Cultivation Cloud Sect disciples realized they weren't dead, as they were still very much alive.

Moreover, no sense of danger was felt in the surroundings.

Gradually, Cultivation Cloud Sect disciples began to open their tightly shut eyes.

Upon seeing the scene before them, they were all dumbfounded, unable to believe their eyes.

Soon, the disciples of Cultivation Cloud Sect erupted into thunderous cheers.

Everyone began to shout jubilantly, as if they had married, thoroughly elated.

Only to see the seemingly unbeatable Cheng Fangtian, now among the Moon Gazing Sect disciples, looking slightly pale, with bloodstains at the corners of his mouth.

It was evident he had sustained injuries in this battle.

More importantly, the knife in Cheng Fangtian's hand had broken, and blood continuously flowed from his arm.

Dripping blood slid down his arm onto the broken half of the blade.

And then fell drop by drop onto the ground.
