Chapter 555: The Barrier Opens
The entire square, spanning hundreds of miles.
Over a hundred Extreme Realm experts, countless peak powerhouses, yet none could match the momentum of the Senior Swordswoman alone.
The endless icy cold frost caused everyone's faces to drastically change.
Just at that moment, a figure leaped out from behind the Ice Martial King.
"Senior Swordswoman, please, contain your anger," the newcomer said as he bowed slightly.
"Wujiang, quickly get back," the Ice Martial King said, his face suddenly changing.
"Wujiang? Bing Wujiang?" Xiao Yi frowned slightly upon hearing this.
He had heard of this man.
Bing Wujiang was none other than the Eldest Prince of the Ice Martial Kingdom.
He was also the Ice Martial Kingdom's number one Heavenly Talent.
As the kingdom closest to the Flame Martial Kingdom, Bing Wujiang's reputation had even spread to the Flame Martial Kingdom.
Once, he was recognized as a Supreme Genius, on par with Bai Mohan.
However, there were recent rumors that he had reached the Peak cultivation of the Heavenly Origin.
Upon the release of this news, the entire Ice Martial Kingdom was shaken.
Now, he had already far surpassed Bai Mohan.
"Boom," just at this moment, a loud explosion occurred.
The cold frost on the Mystic Ice Sect Master was forcefully shattered.
The Mystic Ice Sect Master barely regained their freedom, a look of apprehension on their face.
"Sky-splitting Sword Maiden, I advise you not to act rashly," the Mystic Ice Sect Master said coldly.
"Wujiang is a Direct Disciple of the Ice Emperor, and the only disciple."
The Senior Swordswoman narrowed her eyes, "What, you think using the Ice Emperor's reputation will intimidate me?"
"Do you believe that even if I kill this boy, the Ice Emperor wouldn't dare to trouble me?"
"You..." The Mystic Ice Sect Master's face changed drastically.
"Senior, you go too far," Bing Wujiang said as he bowed at this time.
"The young one just feels that the East Sea Festival is about to begin."
"If we need to determine who is superior, let's settle it at the festival."
"What if I say no?" the Senior Swordswoman sneered coldly.
"Heh," Bing Wujiang laughed, "I naturally cannot stop the Senior Swordswoman."
"But could it be that the Senior Swordswoman is afraid?"
"Afraid that the Sword Sect's Genius will be easily defeated at the hands of the Ice Martial Kingdom's Heavenly Talent, ending in a miserable defeat?"
"What did you say?" the eyes of the Senior Swordswoman turned cold.
The face of the Ice Martial King instantly changed dramatically, "Wujiang, come back quickly; that woman is not easy to deal with, provoking her like that, she might seriously decide to harm you."
"Hmph," the Senior Swordswoman snorted coldly, "Ice Martial King, do you think I, like you all, would only vent my anger on the younger generation?"
It was clear that what the Senior Swordswoman referred to was that the Ice Martial King and others only dared to give trouble to Xiao Yi.
"I'm only asking the Senior Swordswoman, are you afraid?" Bing Wujiang asked again in a deep voice.
The Senior Swordswoman's face was as cold as frost, and in the next second, she waved her hand grandly.
The blizzards, the endless cold frost, suddenly dissipated.
"Fine, you, a greenhorn, dare to speak so boldly to me, it is indeed commendable courage," the Senior Swordswoman said coolly.
"Let's leave it at that for now, off with you."
As the frost disappeared, the Ice Martial Sect Master and others regained their freedom.
"Sky-splitting Sword Maiden, don't think you're beyond reproach," the Ice Martial Sect Master said coldly.
"This is the East Sea Coast, it's not your place to do as you please."
"Indeed," said the Golden Evil Sect Master, "Among the Sixteen Flame Dragon Countries, aside from your Flame Martial Kingdom, every Kingdom has two Martial Arts Holy Lands."
"Only your Flame Martial Kingdom is left with a single Sky-splitting Sword Sect."
"Hmph, just wait, the Sky-splitting Sword Sect is also in decline."
"One day, your Sky-splitting Sword Sect won't even be worthy of carrying our shoes."
"Nonsense," the Senior Swordswoman's face turned frosty.
"Let's go," said the Ice Martial Sect Master and others, their faces changing as they all left in haste.
The Ice Martial King's group, the Heavenly Gold Country Master's group, they had all already departed.
On the spot, the Sky-splitting Sword Sect's group looked uncomfortable.
The Senior Swordswoman also had no dignified demeanor of a strong character and was angrily stomping her feet.
"Damn it, damn it," the Senior Swordswoman muttered to herself, clearly very upset.
"Senior, please calm down," the Great Elder and others said as they cupped their hands together.
"Calm down, you say? You even have the gall to say that," the Senior Swordswoman shouted angrily.
"Look at the strength of each and every elder over there."
"And then look at what cultivation you all have."
"If you had any spirit at all, would I need to be angry?"
"Xiao Yi, child," the Senior Swordswoman suddenly called out.
"Uh," Xiao Yi was taken aback, looking toward the Senior Swordswoman.
The Senior Swordswoman said angrily, "At the East Sea Festival, teach these guys a good lesson for me."
"Especially that little brat from the Ice Martial Kingdom, beat him up hard for me."
"Knock them all down, one by one, don't worry about the consequences, I've got your back."
"Yes," Xiao Yi nodded.
After a while, the Senior Swordswoman's anger finally subsided.
Xiao Yi, slightly puzzled, asked, "Senior, may I know who the 'Ice Emperor' mentioned by the Ice Martial Sect Master is?"
The Senior Swordswoman, reverting to her usual indifference and languor,
stood by herself and said lightly, "Just a Supreme Strong, barely enough to spar with me, no need to bother about him."
"Barely?" Xiao Yi frowned slightly.
Considering the full confidence of the Ice Martial Sect Master and his people just now, it didn't seem so simple.
...
Time gradually passed.
A day later, more and more forces arrived at the square.
The number of powerhouses in the square also gradually increased.
Just then, a familiar voice suddenly came.
"Deputy Commander Xiao Yi," several voices approached quickly.
"Hm?" Xiao Yi frowned slightly.
It turned out to be Xu Xing and others.
"It really is Deputy Commander Xiao Yi, we thought we had recognized the wrong person," Xu Xing and the others came in front of Xiao Yi and smiled.
Xiao Yi chuckled, "I am no longer with the Flame Martial Guard, just call me Xiao Yi."
"But you guys, to actually come as well?"
Behind Xu Xing at this time were three elders.
They were the five Half-step Heavenly Origin powerhouses from the Star Alliance, who were now at the Heavenly Origin First Layer.
"Ah," Xu Xing said awkwardly, "Our Star Alliance naturally doesn't have the qualifications to participate in such grand events."
"However, our Donglai County happens to be not far from the East Sea region."
"And some of us younger generation, with barely sufficient talent, were also invited to come along."
Xu Xing of the past was one of the Heavenly Talents capable of going toe-to-toe with Ling Yu.
Now, his Cultivation was also at the Earth Origin Ninth Layer, although he had fallen behind Ling Yu somewhat, but at least he still belonged in the ranks of the Supreme Geniuses.
"Young Master Xiao Yi," at this moment, Miss Meng Luo called out shyly from the side.
"Miss Meng Luo, well met," Xiao Yi smiled.
As time gradually passed, forces continually arrived.
The Sixteen Flame Dragon Countries, the Sixteen Main Halls, and the various Martial Arts Holy Lands, most had already arrived.
'Jiu' At this time, a series of cries echoed through the square.
"It's the people from the Snow Winged Eagle Clan," the powerhouses in the square all looked up.
A dozen huge figures passed through the barrier, soaring above the square.
Among them, a purple figure was particularly eye-catching.
Swoosh swoosh swoosh… a dozen figures landed one after another.
"Brother Xiao Yi," Qin Feiyang instantly arrived.
Lin Jin and Liu Yanran also came together.
"After several years, we finally see you again," Qin Feiyang smiled.
"Half a year ago, that bastard Yi Xiao even misled us saying you had returned to the Royal Capital."
"The three of us went to the Royal Capital and couldn't find you at all."
"Uh, I was in seclusion with my clan at that time," Xiao Yi said with an embarrassed smile.
"Xiao Yi," Liu Yanran called out, a joyful expression on her face.
"Hm? You are?"
But at that moment, her gaze fell on Miss Meng Luo next to Xiao Yi.
Her look was somewhat unfriendly.
...
Two days later, the barrier suddenly trembled violently.
A dozen figures flew in.
The arrivals were the Hall Master and the dozen or so Sub Hall Masters behind him.
"Greetings, Hall Master," all the powerhouses in the square, including the Kings of the various countries and the Sect Masters and Sect Hierarchs of the various Martial Arts Holy Lands, bowed and ceremoniously greeted him.
"Hm," the Hall Master nodded.
"Is everyone present? Open the East Sea barrier, immediately."
...
The third update.
