Chapter 861: A Step Late

Ye Chen, Xiao Yuan'er, and Monk Mingxin were on their way.

Ye Chen didn't really care about the next battle.

It was nothing more than a duel with a young master who had a personal grudge against him, and it was a life-and-death battle.

Ye Chen didn't think he would lose this battle.

He had just faced Gusu Tutian in the Void Realm. He was the Holy Son of the Ten Thousand Demon Sect. In terms of combat power, he was definitely stronger than an ordinary young master. He could defeat Gusu Tutian without using all his trump cards. Why would he still worry about Xiao Changqing?

"Brother Ye, what do you think of this battle?"

At this time, Monk Mingxin slowly spoke, "I always feel that things are not that simple."

"Simple or not, we have to take this battle."

Ye Chen smiled, "Let's settle all the new and old grudges between Xiao Changqing and me. After killing him, I can also put an end to my worries, so as not to keep this scourge and keep trying to kill me!"

"Okay, then I will be outside to help you. If there is any change, I will help you in time!"

Monk Mingxin put his hands together and chanted a Buddhist name.

Of course, this battle is the focus of everyone's attention, so there is no need to worry about Xiao Changqing's conspiracy.

In front of all the practitioners in Zhongzhou, what tricks can Xiao Changqing dare to play?

The three of them hurried together and soon arrived at the Cangqiong Mountains.

It can be seen that hundreds of strong men have gathered here in advance. They are surrounded in all directions, obviously waiting for a good show to happen.

"Look, Ye Chen is here!"

"Sure enough."

"I knew he would come. Facing the provocation of his opponent, if Ye Chen doesn't come, he won't be called Ye Chen."

"Yes, from the moment Ye Chen entered Zhongzhou, there have been countless battles along the way. Has he ever given in?"

"This is Ye Chen, he never took a step back!"

Many cultivators were excited when they saw Ye Chen.

Most of them didn't care about the victory or defeat of the two, they just wanted to see a wonderful battle.

As for the praise, most of them were just compliments.

"Xiao Changqing, I heard you want to challenge me?"

Ye Chen smiled indifferently, raised his eyes, and fell on the top of the mountain far away.

It can be felt that a terrifying sword energy is gathering on the top of the mountain, constantly bursting out terrifying sword light, blooming inch by inch towards the surroundings, wishing to tear everything apart.

From the moment Ye Chen stepped into this area, he actually noticed Xiao Changqing's sword intent.

It has to be said that he has improved a lot compared to the last time they met.

If it is really counted, it should be above Su Jinnan.

It seems that Xiao Changqing was prepared to challenge him!

"Ye Chen!"

On the top of the mountain, Xiao Changqing gradually dispersed his sword intent.

The sword energy as bright as the sun dissipated, revealing his true face.

Xiao Changqing stood with his hands behind his back, looking at Ye Chen indifferently, and said word by word, "We had some conflicts before. The last time we met, I almost died in your hands. I regard this as a lifelong shame... This time, I just want to kill you in front of all the practitioners!"

Hmm?

Ye Chen was a little curious when he heard Xiao Changqing's tone.

Why do I feel that he is a little weird?

From the tone and voice, I can feel that Xiao Changqing has murderous intentions towards me.

However, Ye Chen did not notice his hatred.

Why?

If you want to talk about who hates me the most, apart from Ling Jiuxiao, it is Xiao Changqing.

Xiao Changqing used to be such an arrogant and aloof person. He repeatedly ran into obstacles in front of him and even wanted to eat him.

The last time they fought, he almost lost in his hands.

Why did Xiao Changqing's hatred not seem strong at all this time?

It was indeed a bit incomprehensible.

Could it be that Xiao Changqing had reached a higher level in his state of mind?

Otherwise, why could he eliminate all his anger?

This point really confused Ye Chen.

However, he did not think too much.

"Let's fight."

Ye Chen said lightly.

He did not like to talk nonsense. No matter how much he talked, it would be better to fight a real battle!

Ye Chen also wanted to see what progress Xiao Changqing had made over the years.

What made him so confident that he challenged himself.

"I have a rune formation here. It has no other use but to isolate the breath. You and I will fight in the Cangqiong Mountains. I will use this rune formation to isolate the breath. In the end, only one of us can walk out of the Cangqiong Mountains. Do you dare to fight?"

Xiao Changqing raised his hand, with a rune quietly lying in his hand.

Although Ye Chen was not very proficient in rune formations, he knew a little bit.

He could see that this rune could only isolate sound and breath, and did not have many other functions.

Seeing that Ye Chen did not speak at the first time, Xiao Changqing sneered, "Don't worry, I will rely on my combat power to kill you openly, instead of playing some other tricks!"

"Brother Ye, be careful of fraud!"

Monk Mingxin grabbed Ye Chen and said in a deep voice, "Let me explore the Cangqiong Mountains first!"

The next moment, he muttered something in his mouth, raised his hand and suddenly condensed a golden light, which was wiped at the center of his eyebrows.

Between the brows of Monk Mingxin, an eye composed entirely of golden light appeared. It swept across the entire Cangqiong Mountain Range, taking in all the aura and arrangements inside.

After some exploration, Monk Mingxin stopped and breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Except for a little more evil spirit inside, there aren't many other things worth noting. No one was ambushing me, and no one was holding back in advance."

Ye Chen nodded, and his figure suddenly rose up, heading towards the Cangqiong Mountains.

"Ah, do you want to isolate the breath?"

"Does this mean we can't even watch the battle scenes?"

"We came all the way and we can only wait outside the mountains?"

The strong men immediately stopped working and complained and grumbled one by one.

Xiao Yuan'er's eyes were cold, "Master, don't worry, we will notify you immediately if there is any danger. After Xiao Yuan'er received the notification, he immediately went in and smashed this person's head to pieces!"

Ye Chen stepped into the mountains, raised his eyes and looked at Xiao Changqing.

"I am coming."

Xiao Changqing laughed and fell slowly.

And the runes in his hand suddenly burst into light, covering everything around him.

With the light curtain covering all directions, all sounds and breaths in the Cangqiong Mountain Range were no longer perceptible.

Even if the emperor is here, unless the rune is broken, there is no way to explore the situation inside.

At this time, a figure came from the distant sky.

It's Xiao Xuan!

"Where's Ye Chen?"

Xiao Xuan looked a little anxious. As soon as he arrived, he asked Monk Mingxin and Xiao Yuan'er.

"As soon as we entered the mountains, the battle of life and death began."

Monk Mingxin answered honestly.

Xiao Xuan's expression turned pale, he... was actually a step too late!
