C405 Swordsman
"'Ding! '"
Yu Yue defended once again, blocking Shangguan Xianhua's attack.
Just as she was about to attack again, Yu Yue suddenly jumped backwards.
Shangguan Zhitao also stopped attacking and looked sharply at Yu Yue.
"Why did you run away? I haven't used my real sword technique yet!"
Yu Yue waved his hand and said, "I'm not fighting anymore."
He really did not want to fight anymore.
Previously, he insisted on stirring up trouble. It was because he thought that the girl in front of him was Shangguan Zhitao and could not allow her to wander around.
But now, he knew the truth - it turned out that this girl was not Shangguan Zhitao but just looked like her.
Although she might have some kind of blood relation with Shangguan Zhitao, Yu Yue had also lost the desire to fight. It was completely meaningless.
Even if he defeated Shangguan Xianhua, it would only be a simple defeat of her. Perhaps he would even incur her resentment. It was completely unnecessary.
Although she had been rude to her sword technique just now, it was not to the extent of bickering with a little girl.
He still wanted to go back earlier and ask Shangguan Zhitao what exactly was the matter with Shangguan Xianhua who appeared out of thin air.
However, Shangguan Xianhua's eyes were wide open and revealed a shocked expression.
"Not fighting anymore!?"
"Yes, I'm not going to fight anymore. I'm sorry for what happened just now. I shouldn't have pretended to know you. I sincerely apologize to you."
After saying that, Yu Yue waved his hand and wanted to turn around and leave.
Unexpectedly, a fierce attack suddenly attacked him!
This attack was completely different from the previous sword technique. It contained a strong killing intent, and even the sword intent had been raised by at least two levels in an instant!
Yu Yue was unable to deal with such a sword intent with ease. He struck out with his sword, and collided with the incoming long sword.
What was contained in it was a power that he had never felt before.
The place where the two swords clashed even burst out a wave of air.
Shangguan Xianhua was already close to leaping forward, using the sword in her hand to firmly block Yu Yue's sword.
"It is already at this time, you actually want to escape from the battle?" She gritted her teeth, her voice trembling.
Yu Yue felt a headache coming on. He really didn't want to fight with this guy anymore.
"You said it's a duel. I didn't tell you my real name just now, so the duel doesn't count."
"Who cares what you said? I said my name, so this duel is considered to be true - - a fight to the death!! "
Feeling the soaring fighting spirit of the young girl in front of him, he sighed: "Just treat this duel as my loss... This way, you can let me go, right?"
Shangguan Zhitao widened her eyes and her eyes were filled with shock.
Immediately after, her face distorted.
"You bug, are you insulting me!?" She shouted loudly and suddenly raised her sword, slashing at Yu Yue once again.
The momentum of this attack was even stronger than the previous one, and there was a huge force mixed in the attack.
Yu Yue blocked it again, and felt a headache.
He did not want to escape from the battle, but he did not want to hurt the girl's self-esteem at all.
Observing her words and actions, he knew that she was a girl with a strong desire to win. She had extreme persistence and superiority towards sword arts.
If she were to be defeated by a person who came from some unknown place in front of everyone in the sword arts field that she was proud of, it would definitely cause a huge sense of defeat.
This would create a great deal of dark emotions in her heart. At the very least, it would cause resentment towards Yue, and at the worst, it would cause mental damage. She would not be able to recover in a short period of time.
However, Shangguan Xianhua did not understand Yu Yue's painstaking efforts at all. She waved her long sword crazily, creating a storm as it smashed towards Yu Yue like a storm.
Not only did she attack, she was also roaring at Yu Yue in the middle of the intense attack.
"What about your honor as a swordsman? What about your dignity as a human? How come you don't have anything? You are so weak, your sword is crying! What qualifications do you have to hold a sword? You're not fit to hold a sword!!"
Even the surrounding people started to criticize Yue Yi.
They still wanted to watch a good show, but this guy who wielded a sword wanted to leave just like that, how could that be possible?
For a moment, the words "coward" and "trash 'resounded in the mouths of the surrounding people.
After cursing wildly, Shangguan Xianhua suddenly felt a terrifying aura.
This aura made her entire body tremble. She suddenly pulled back and pulled the longsword that she had just swung out in front of her.
Only then did she manage to block the terrifying attack.
Because of the huge impact, Shangguan Xianhua's body was sent flying a few meters away.
After she landed, she looked at Yu Yue from afar. She was not angry with this man who had just launched a terrifying attack. Instead, she revealed a smile.
"You're finally willing to duel!"
Yu Yue raised his sword. The attack just now was from him.
He did not use his full strength. Even if he did not use the sword skill, he could still kill her with a single strike just by relying on his agility and strength, which was several times higher than hers. She could not raise any defense at all.
That strike just now was because he had lowered his attributes to the same level as Shangguan Xianhua's attack, which was why he was blocked by her.
"I can duel with you, but you have to agree to make three rules with me. First, we will only compete with swords and do not use any other abilities. Second, we'll stop at the last minute, and won't hurt anyone's life. Third, if you lose, just admit defeat, you can't act like a hoodlum"
" Alright! " Shangguan Xianhua agreed excitedly without even thinking.
Her contempt for Yue had long disappeared.
She discovered that Yu Yue was actually such a powerful person with a sword. This aroused her strong competitive spirit. She wanted to defeat the man in front of her and prove that her sword skills were the strongest!
As for why Yu Yue wanted to fight Shangguan Xianhua, there were many reasons.
The biggest reason was Yu Yue's shame.
He was actually suppressed by countless pairs of eyes with his sword and did not dare to fight back.
This was something that he, as a martial arts fanatic who was obsessed with sword arts, would absolutely not tolerate.
And it was also because he felt that Shangguan Xianhua needed to be taught a lesson.2
It was indeed good for a newborn calf like her to not be afraid of tigers, but if she was too bold and unbridled, she would definitely suffer. Fortunately, he had foreseen Yu Yue today. If it were any other sword expert, they might have directly killed her.
It was good to polish the edges of her heart.
His thoughts could also be seen from the three chapters of the covenant.
The three laws clearly stated that they would not allow her to harm people's lives. He hoped that this would reduce her usual murderous aura. It was good for swordsmen to have murderous aura, but if they were exposed and not corrected, there was a high possibility that they would go berserk.
After she agreed to abide by the three laws, Yu Yue nodded. He lightly exhaled, and his body's center of gravity shifted slightly, looking at Shangguan Zhitao.
"My name is Kai Xin. Come on." He said.
The moment Yu Yue's eyes met Shangguan Xianhua's, she suddenly felt like she was being targeted by some kind of giant beast. This kind of feeling made her heart tremble, but also made her incomparably excited.
That's right, what she was waiting for was... This was the kind of enemy she was waiting for, a swordsman of this level!
"Good! Good! Okay!" She said 'good' three times in a row, and then she made a sword pose.
However, the man who was standing there earlier had disappeared!
She was suddenly shocked!
There was only a emotionless voice echoing in her ears -
"With you attacking, this duel will never end. Let me attack."
