Chapter 823 820: Renown Soars

The crowd gasped, they never expected that Luo Ting's fate would be like this.

"Alas!"

Luo Ting and the furious Wei Yan, both fainted heavily. The entire Great Jade Peak, nearly twenty thousand people, at this moment, no one dared to step forward to block Ye Fan and Feng Shaohao.

Because they too were deathly still, the atmosphere was unbearably tense.

"Junior brother, let's go!"

Ye Fan spoke.

Then Feng Shaohao took Ye Fan's hand and left Great Jade Peak.

Even Yang Xiu and Xu Zun miscalculated; they never expected the outcome to be like this. In their eyes, Luo Ting had been severely injured this time.

They also knew, Ye Fan was entirely capable of ending Luo Ting.

But the rules of the Infinite Sword Sect forbid inter-sect killings; otherwise, how could Luo Ting still be alive? However, even if Luo Ting recovers this time,

his realm could only stop here because the injuries Ye Fan caused him were too severe. Stopping here was already lenient.

In fact, the truth might not end here.

Yang Xiu said, "I sensed the Power of Demon, King of Heaven used the Power of Demon combined with Sword Dao Power to perfectly resolve Luo Ting's ninth sword!"

"It can't be said to be perfect, but he only suffered one-tenth of the ninth sword's damage. It seems he is not simple. Someday, perhaps I can meet him!"

The two nodded.

...

The matter of Ye Fan defeating Luo Ting eventually couldn't be kept secret. The once-dominant Great Jade Peak had become much more low-key due to Luo Ting's defeat.

But this matter spread within the Infinite Sword Sect, and many started to mock and ridicule, taunting how even the top disciple was heavily injured.

The prowess of Great Jade Peak was declining.

But only those martial artists who truly witnessed that battle understood how difficult it was.

However, none of it mattered to them. The decline of Great Jade Peak merely provided an opportunity for other peaks to rise.

Everyone was eager to see just how formidable this King of Heaven was. Unfortunately, Ye Fan, being directly involved, had become much more low-profile.

Since returning from Great Jade Peak, he had not left Yanqi Peak.

Many sought to climb Yanqi Peak to meet Ye Fan, eager to witness the King of Heaven's demeanor, but Ye Fan refused to meet anyone, all were turned away by Feng Shaohao.

At this moment, Ye Fan was comprehending the Sword Dao Power, how could he have the time for visitors! After all, he always adhered to the principle of being low-key in conduct, high-profile in deeds.

Moreover, an uplifting piece of news came, and that was Li'er had broken through, successfully advancing to the Half-step Ancestor Realm, to Feng Shaohao's delight.

He told Li'er about all the recent events, and Li'er was surprised. She didn't expect that during her brief seclusion, so many things had happened.

....

In the forbidden area of the Infinite Sword Sect, at this moment, there was a disheveled man, resembling a beggar, confronting Sword Obsession.

At this moment, a sword qi blasted down, Sword Obsession managed to block it, but he was also injured. Even though he was Grade Six Ancestor Realm, he was not as powerful as the man before him.

In fact, the gap was far too great; there was simply no comparison between them.

"Senior brother!"

Sword Obsession spoke.

This man regained some composure and said, "Junior brother! I can't control the demonic qi within me, and you see, I've wounded you again.

"As long as senior brother remembers me, that's enough"!

Sword Obsession said.

It turned out that this man was the Sect Master of the Infinite Sword Sect, the Infinite Sword Ancestor, a supreme power at Grade Seven Ancestor Realm, nearly at the peak on the Martial Arts Continent.

However, because he couldn't suppress the demonic qi within him, and because this was a time where demons were not tolerated, the best method for the Infinite Sword Ancestor was seclusion.

Not letting outsiders see him in this state, otherwise, it would surely cause chaos.

At this moment, the Infinite Sword Ancestor said, "It's difficult, I can't suppress the Power of Demon much longer, the times I'm clear-minded are getting fewer, and who knows when I might fall into demonhood."

"I've already prepared a grave for myself."

"Once I can't suppress it anymore, I won't bring harm to the world, leaving a bad name through the ages!"

The Infinite Sword Ancestor spoke.

Sword Obsession felt heartache, the Infinite Sword Ancestor had great hope of stepping into the Ancestor Realm Ninth Grade, but with his current state, too many things could possibly go wrong.

There were many uncertain factors at play.

If the Infinite Sword Ancestor indeed reached that step, then the entire Infinite Sword Sect could truly be doomed.

"Don't be sad, it's all my own doing, I haven't any complaints"!

The Infinite Sword Ancestor spoke.

At this moment, he asked Sword Obsession: "Junior brother, why are you here to see me?"

Only to see Sword Obsession saying: "Senior brother, I'm here for one thing!"

"It seems I've found a way to deal with the demonic qi within you!"

"What?"

The Infinite Sword Ancestor was shocked, but he still believed that Sword Obsession was only comforting him, as he knew his own condition, he simply couldn't suppress it.

Because he wasn't as heaven-defying as the Sword Ancestor, in the entire Sword Sect, only the Sword Ancestor had truly reached that point, and he was not the Sword Ancestor.

At this moment, Sword Obsession said: "I've taken a disciple, he practices both Sword and Demon, but he can suppress demonic qi, even enslave demonic qi!"

"Such a monstrous person exists?"

The Infinite Sword Ancestor was shocked.

Enslaving demonic qi was something he dared not even imagine.

But it was accomplished by a young man, and he was curious about how all this was done.

At this moment, Sword Obsession said: "Senior brother, perhaps you can also follow his example! When I go out this time, I plan to ask if he has a method to handle it?"

The Infinite Sword Ancestor said: "Then I'll trouble junior brother. If it truly works, then I wouldn't have to hide cautiously like this anymore, nor live a life faced with darkness daily!"

"A life like this is not what I want, only because I took the wrong step back then, and then every step after was wrong!"

The Infinite Sword Ancestor was actually very distressed, very regretful, but unfortunately, time cannot be turned back. If it could, he would definitely improve his cultivation method.

At this moment, Sword Obsession said, "I believe he can do it!"

"Alright, even if powerless, I have no complaints. I suspect that during my absence, those old geezers are already eager to act!"

"That's right, but they are still somewhat apprehensive, not daring to act rashly!"

Sword Obsession said.

"Rest assured, even if it means death, I will clear obstacles for you!"

"Junior brother, you must leave quickly! My demonic qi is starting to revive again, I must return to the freezing, next time you come, be extremely cautious!"

"Because I might not be able to restrain the demonic qi within me and attack you!"

The Infinite Sword Ancestor said to Sword Obsession.

Sword Obsession said, "Alright"!

Then, he didn't stay in this place any longer, because now the Infinite Sword Ancestor was very terrifying.

Originally, he and the Infinite Sword Ancestor had already been in decline, the Infinite Sword Ancestor was even preparing to resort to desperate measures, but because of Ye Fan's appearance, Sword Obsession now had new hope.

He sighed and said, "Disciple, I hope you can truly save senior brother, the hope of our Infinite Sword Sect rests on you.

In fact, Sword Obsession's heart was also uncertain, not because he was fickle, but because whether Ye Fan could save the Infinite Sword Ancestor was still an unknown.

If he could save him, then all the better; if not, the Infinite Sword Sect might decline continuously, which was not what Sword Obsession wanted to see.

He cautiously left that place.

But he did not notice, someone was lurking in the shadows, spying on the situation, and this person was He Quan.

He Quan coldly said, "Once I uncover this secret, the Infinite Sword Sect will be mine, hahahaha!"
