Chapter 585: Chapter 585: Ying Aotian VS Ying Qingfeng
On the platform, the conversation between Ying Qingliu and Huang Xiaolong could naturally be heard by everyone present.
Everyone knew that Ying Qingliu had practiced a deadly move and wanted to use it to kill Huang Xiaolong.
Therefore, countless eyes were fixed on Ying Qingliu, curious to see what kind of ultimate move he had cultivated.
However, when Ying Qingliu launched his sword at Huang Xiaolong, although the stance was fierce and full of force, with the sword’s wind whistling like thunder, it was still noticeably inferior compared to Ying Qingquan’s previous performance.
During the confrontation between Huang Xiaolong and Ying Qingquan, despite unleashing his most powerful move, Ying Qingquan’s attack was easily deflected by Huang Xiaolong’s basic swordsmanship. So, to think that Ying Qingliu could defeat Huang Xiaolong was pure folly!
The spectators couldn’t help but shake their heads, some even voiced their mockery—”This Ying Qingliu comes from a lowly background, being a child born from a servant who seduced her master. It’s laughable that he has boasted about cultivating a so-called deadly move.”
Ying Chong was also unsatisfied, complaining, “To think Qingliu deceived me by claiming he had honed a sure-kill sword move! This kid!”
“Dad, don’t have any hopes for such a waste.” Ying Qingfeng wore a face of disdain.
At this same time, a proverbial weight lifted off the hearts of Ying Xiao’s lineage.
Just then, on the stage, Ying Qingliu’s sword was less than two meters away from Huang Xiaolong, and his Sword Qi had already burst forth, sweeping away the surrounding air, aiming to massacre Huang Xiaolong.
Suddenly!!!
Something strange occurred!
Crack~~~!!!!
There was the sound of bones shattering!n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ying Qingliu’s right hand, which was gripping the sword, suddenly broke at the elbow! With this, his entire right forearm, holding tightly onto the longsword pointed at Huang Xiaolong, was shot out like an arrow!
The current situation was as if Ying Qingliu had purposefully broken his forearm and, along with the longsword, thrust it towards Huang Xiaolong—in both speed and strength, it was several times faster than his previous sword strike!
It was so fast, it left no shadow behind. And the added force transformed the sword into the most bizarre and fastest sharp weapon in the world, shredding the air, causing whirls of wind!
“Ah~~!!!!” Ying Qingliu grimaced, bearing the pain of his broken hand, but there was a weird smile on the corner of his mouth. “No one in the world can escape this move. I was originally planning to use it to kill Brother Qingfeng, but since you’ve offended us, I have to kill you. What an accomplishment, my mother will finally have a position. From now on, I won’t get mocked in the Ying Family… ”
So, Ying Qingliu’s much-talked-about ultimate move was to take his opponent by surprise by launching his severed forearm, like throwing a concealed weapon, at them when his sword was about to strike.
This perilously strange move was almost unthinkable to most people.
It carried a sense of tragic heroicness, akin to a brave man cutting off his own arm.
His sword was already close to striking Huang Xiaolong, and now, with a sudden increase in speed from launching his forearm, combined with its element of surprise, it was no wonder that Qingliu was confident that his strategy could successfully kill Huang Xiaolong. Moreover, he was also aware that he could only use this move once.
The sudden change made everyone’s hearts skip a beat!
Subconsciously, everyone had the same thought—”Huang Xiaolong is done for! This move is too weird, too dangerous, and too sudden! What a pity, Huang Xiaolong was a strong fighter, but he’ll perish by this unpredictable stealth attack. Ying Qingliu exchanged an arm for Huang Xiaolong’s life, it’s a deal worth it.”
In the blink of an eye, on the stage, there was a brief flash, and Huang Xiaolong swiftly retreated a few steps, casually extending a finger to the incoming sword tip.
Clang~~~!!!!
Both the longsword and Ying Qingliu’s severed arm fell to the ground together.
Huang Xiaolong remained unharmed, laughing cheerfully. “Haha~~ so this is your ultimate move, huh? Actually, it’s not bad, ordinary people would certainly fall for it, but you ran into me. You’re a bit foolish, really. If you used this move to ambush that Ying Qingfeng, at least you could hurt him, and you would have made a name for yourself. It’s a shame you wasted such a despicable trick on me, and it was useless.”
Huang Xiaolong’s reflexes were much faster than the average person’s. Thus, though Ying Qingfeng’s sneak attack appeared swift, it seemed to slow down in Huang Xiaolong’s eyes, allowing him enough time to dodge it gracefully.
In an instant, gasps of disbelief echoed around the plaza and from the Elder Group, resounding intermittently—
“No way?! He could actually dodge that? Is he even human?”
“It’s unavoidable, it seems only Cousin Qingfeng can go toe-to-toe with him, no one else stands a chance.”
“If this didn’t kill him, I, hell, concede.”
“Yeah, I thought he was as good as dead too. But, that move Ying Qingliu used, was just plain vicious. If it were me, I’d be a goner.”
…
“Phew~~~” Ying Xiao sighed in relief, “Son-in-law sure is remarkable; that whole ordeal scared the sweat out of me.”
Ying Aoshan muttered with a surprised look, patting his chest. “Good thing he’s alright, good thing he’s alright.”
“Damn it! Just a bit more! That bastard really is lucky!” Ying Chong gritted his teeth in frustration.
“I… I failed to kill you…” Ying Qingliu’s face turned ashen as desperation dawned, he had lost his arm in vain.
“Hahaha, I win, pick up your arm. Who knows, you might be able to reattach it.” Huang Xiaolong wasn’t making it difficult for Ying Qingliu. Even if he did get his arm back, his martial arts would greatly deteriorate, and progression would be challenging.
Huang Xiaolong continued his winning streak.
The top ten battle continued.
Ying Qingfeng faced off against Ying Tianpeng. In the first round, Ying Tianpeng conceded to Huang Xiaolong.
“Aren’t you going to admit defeat yet, get out?” Ying Qingfeng said arrogantly.
“Apologies, Cousin Qingfeng, but I’d like to give it a try.” Ying Tianpeng responded with a level-headed tone.
“Unbelievable! When you fought that bastard, you conceded right away, now you dare to resist against me?” Ying Qingfeng flew into a rage out of humiliation, feeling deeply that his dignity had been violated.
“Cousin Qingfeng, only by competing with the strong can we make progress. Facing Huang Xiaolong earlier, I couldn’t quite gauge his depth, so I didn’t dare to act rashly. Despite your strength, you haven’t deterred me completely… I guess I can hold out for a few moves.” Ying Tianpeng smiled. He thought to himself: ‘Cousin Qingfeng is too arrogant and narrow-minded. To be honest, he falls far short compared to Huang Xiaolong…he’s destined to be left behind in the achievements of the future.’
Enraged, Ying Qingfeng struck out. Ying Tianpeng mustered all his strength to ward off the blows, but after just a couple of exchanges, he was knocked off the stage by Ying Qingfeng.
Fortunately, Ying Tianpeng’s Qinggong was adequate, enabling him to escape unscratched in time. Otherwise, his internal organs would have been shattered.
The top ten battles were going on one after another, victories and losses alternating. Only three people remained undefeated — Huang Xiaolong, Ying Aotian, Ying Qingfeng.
The three had the same scores.
Certainly, they had the top three positions sealed.
However, it’s hard to predict who would take the first place, as things were uncertain. Though Ying Aotian was slightly disadvantaged, everyone speculated that this year’s Martial Arts Meeting champion would be decided between Ying Qingfeng and Huang Xiaolong.
Next up, Ying Qingfeng vs Ying Aotian!
The whole arena was buzzing!
This was a direct confrontation between the first and second genius of the Ying family’s fourth generation!
“Hahahaha~~~ Aotian, I’ve finally got you! Your cultivation has recovered, which is good, but today, I’m going to trample on you again in front of everyone!” Eyes filled with bloodlust, Ying Qingfeng glared at Ying Aotian. “I want to show you just how vast the chasm between us is!”
“Phew~~~” Ying Aotian stood up fearlessly. “Cousin Qingfeng, I’ve been waiting long for this battle too. Let’s settle our grudges, old and new!”
What do you think?
