Chapter 833 - 830: Fierce Battle with Yang Xiu

At this moment, Ye Fan politely said, "Senior!

However, the Emei Heavenly Master did not give him a good look, only to hear the Emei Heavenly Master coldly say, "Did you eat your fill and now deny it?"

Ye Fan found this statement strange; what did eating his fill and denying it mean? He hadn’t eaten indeed, right?

You can’t act like a ruffian!

Therefore, Ye Fan said:

"Senior, what do you mean by that? I don’t quite understand!"

"You will understand!"

The Emei Heavenly Master was about to make a move!

"Wait!"

At this moment, she was stopped by Ye Fan.

The Emei Heavenly Master gave up the power she had gathered in her hand, and Ye Fan knew that if this power came down, he would suffer some hardship.

Therefore, he quickly said, "I’m wronged!"

"Wronged? I didn’t wrong you! Both you and your master have an annoying behavior!"

The Emei Heavenly Master said disdainfully.

Ye Fan said, "If you don’t believe me, you can verify Zhi Mei’s true body. Women have a cinnabar birthmark, and her birthmark is still there!"

Ye Fan was actually helpless because he saw a red cinnabar birthmark on Zhou Zhimei’s arm, and now this was the only way to verify himself.

The Emei Heavenly Master coldly said, "The cinnabar birthmark can be faked!"

"I swear to Heaven, if I really did anything to her, then let me be struck by lightning!"

Actually, Ye Fan was forced to do this; he didn’t want to swear such a heavy oath. But if he didn’t swear now, he might be taught a lesson by this woman.

At this moment, the Emei Heavenly Master coldly said, "Although you didn’t do anything to her, you have taken away her heart, so you must bear this responsibility!"

Ye Fan almost spat blood; he had to take responsibility for this? He was speechless, and it wasn’t even his choice! One shouldn’t be shameless to such an extent.

Therefore, Ye Fan said, "Senior, such things can’t be forced, and besides, I’ve already been pushed to the center of attention!"

"Can we talk about this later after this period is over?"

He believes that the Emei Heavenly Master will understand because now he has many troubles, and if he doesn’t get rid of these troubles, it will be a very dangerous thing.

The Emei Heavenly Master naturally knew the problems Ye Fan had faced these days.

Therefore, she said, "You can, however..."

"However what?"

Ye Fan asked.

Then the Emei Heavenly Master gathered a power and sent it into his body, instantly, Ye Fan felt locked by this power.

At this moment, the Emei Heavenly Master said, "If you dare to secretly escape, I can kill you in an instant!"

Truly a ruthless woman; Ye Fan really had no means against her.

Therefore, Ye Fan said with a forced smile, "How could I run away, you can’t hide a monk forever, right?"

"Smart move, solve this matter quickly; the internal strife within the Infinite Sword Sect is endless, perhaps you’ve already been made a scapegoat this time!"

"So you best keep your life safe!"

Then, the Emei Heavenly Master flew away.

Ye Fan really wanted to curse, wasn’t it just relying on strong power? What’s so great about it; well, actually, there is something great, given the level she is at!

Returning to Yanqi Peak, Ye Fan began to secretly prepare for the investigation with Xu Zun, starting with Luo Ting and Wei Yan.

But during this time, Luo Ting hadn’t recovered from his defeat.

He secluded himself, so it couldn’t be Luo Ting. As for Wei Yan, he absolutely didn’t have the power to stir the entire Infinite Sword Sect.

However, during this time, trouble always came knocking, and it was Yang Xiu challenging him.

Xu Zun had previously mentioned to him that this was a plot to frame him, but Yang Xiu ignored it and came to challenge him anyway.

He arrived at Yanqi Peak.

Feng Shaohao and Li’er frowned, because this Buddha was formidable, second only to Xu Zun; if he could break through to the Second Grade Ancestor Realm, he could at least match Xu Zun.

Someone like him, if Ye Fan really fought with him, he would be at a disadvantage.

It’s not that they didn’t believe in Ye Fan, but Ye Fan was still growing and accumulating strength; now fighting Yang Xiu, he would likely lose more than win.

At this moment, Yang Xiu said to him, "King of Heaven, weren’t you going to kick me? I’m here personally today to see if you have what it takes!"

"Brother Yang Xiu, this is indeed a misunderstanding, and I’ve been framed. Do you have to cling to this matter?"

Ye Fan calmly reasoned with Yang Xiu.

Then Yang Xiu said, "Whether or not you’ve been framed, the outside world has focused its attention on us, so this battle must happen!"

"Why must you do this again! Does winning or losing really mean that much to you?

Ye Fan was frustrated. In the past, he cared about winning, but now he had seen through it. It’s merely about reputation.

But what does reputation represent? Does it mean others will respect you?

That’s absolutely impossible. Ultimately, one must be strong; otherwise, nothing is worth discussing, just like Yang Xiu now.

He’s too focused on his reputation. With just a little provocation from others, he insists on deciding the outcome with Ye Fan.

Yang Xiu said, "Of course it’s important. If I don’t defeat you, how will outsiders see me? They’ll say I was provoked by a newcomer and remained indifferent!"

"I’m not weak! If you want a battle, let’s have a battle!"

He rebuked Ye Fan.

Ye Fan replied, "Then I admit defeat, okay? You can tell others that in a battle with you, I was beaten."

"Hmph! I want strength, not empty talk!"

Yang Xiu said coldly.

His attitude at this moment was very tough, to a frightening degree.

Ye Fan said, "I see, go ahead and start!"

He understood that reasoning with Yang Xiu was useless because Yang Xiu was a single-minded person. Even if this was a trap, he would dive right into it.

Ye Fan looked down on people like this deep in his heart. Just for a name, they’re willing to fight to the death. He originally planned to persuade him.

Now he realized that Yang Xiu couldn’t be persuaded with words alone. Since reasoning couldn’t sway him, then let’s fight!

There’s nothing that can’t be solved with action.

For this, he took out the Yuanhong Sword.

"Since you want to fight, I’ll accompany you!"

Ye Fan said coldly.

Yang Xiu glared fiercely at Ye Fan, then took out his long sword. His sword was very long, if Ye Fan’s Yuanhong Sword was about 1.2 meters long.

Then Yang Xiu’s sword was at least 1.4 meters.

At this moment, Yang Xiu swung a strike, shouting, "Half Moon Slash!"

Instantly, a giant crescent-like Sword Qi charged at Ye Fan, terrifyingly powerful, shattering anything in its path.

Yes, shattering.

"Yin Rou Sword!"

Ye Fan also moved, using the Yin Rou Sword to counter Yang Xiu’s fierce sword. The two Sword Qi collided, immediately neutralizing each other.

But the battle wasn’t over.

The two quickly approached each other.

They directly clashed swords, and after this strike, Ye Fan and Yang Xiu immediately flew backward, both standing on the ground in disarray.

Only then did they see the earth had a wide abyss, carved out by their Sword Qi.

No question about it, it was a powerful strike. Then the two struck again, fighting in the air, each displaying their proud Sword Qi.

Both were outstanding swordsmen. Yang Xiu’s strength was at the Peak of First Grade Ancestor Realm, slightly stronger than Ye Fan, but he couldn’t defeat Ye Fan.

Not even hold the upper hand, because Ye Fan’s power was not weak, especially his eerie Sword Qi, which relentlessly restrained Yang Xiu’s Sword Qi.

Thus, in front of Ye Fan, Yang Xiu couldn’t gain the upper hand.

Yang Xiu realized Ye Fan’s strength wasn’t phony, but absolutely genuine.

In an instant, they exchanged dozens of moves, unable to see their silhouettes, only witnessing the trailing Sword Qi, with sparks flying.

So fierce, Feng Shaohao and Li’er, watching from afar, were amazed. With their strength, they couldn’t discern the battlefield’s situation.

Who held the upper hand, or who was losing ground, they didn’t know.

"Phantom Slash!"

Yang Xiu shouted, that immensely powerful and seemingly void Phantom Slash struck down, exploding around.

As Phantom Slash descended, Ye Fan simplified it, countering with Mortal Sword, breaking the interconnected Phantom Slash.

After Phantom Slash was dissolved by Ye Fan, Yang Xiu quickly attacked.

A sword fell, Ye Fan’s sword pointed to the heavens, as both lowered their swords to each other’s necks.

The two began a new standoff.

No doubt, this verbal standoff was heart-racing, because any slight move could change the situation.

No one wanted to retract their sword first. Traditionally, Ye Fan would withdraw first, considering that stepping back would broaden the sky.

But this time, he wouldn’t back down because Yang Xiu wasn’t worthy of him withdrawing his sword.

Thus, he asked Yang Xiu, "Do you want to continue?"
