"Senior Brother!"

The moment the Black Dragon Sect disciples saw their Senior Brother, a trace of joy flashed through everyone's eyes.

"You're Lu Yuxiu?" Chang Fen wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his eyes burning as he looked at his opponent.

"That's correct," Lu Yuxiu said in a deep voice.

"Rumor has it that the Black Dragon Sect Master's first disciple, Lu Yuxiu, stepped onto the path of cultivation at three years old, established his foundation at six, reached Cave Mansion at seven, Dragon Gate at thirteen. Not yet thirty years old, he has already cultivated the Black Dragon Sect's supreme technique, the Black Dragon Art, to great completion, reaching Nascent Soul realm perfection at thirty."

Chang Fen recounted Lu Yuxiu's history on his own.

"Your reputation is quite substantial."

"Merely empty fame," Lu Yuxiu said indifferently, "But it should be enough to kill you."

"Is that so?" Chang Fen tilted his head, "Want to try?"

The instant Chang Fen's words fell, Lu Yuxiu disappeared from his original position.

When Lu Yuxiu appeared before Chang Fen, the long sword in his hand was already slashing toward Chang Fen's throat.

Chang Fen retreated backward, barely dodging.

"Boom!"

The Fire Jade Phoenix took the opportunity to spit a mouthful of fierce flames toward Lu Yuxiu.

Lu Yuxiu focused his mind. While dodging the flames sideways, his sword turned back. A black dragon-shaped sword qi roared forth, charging directly at the Fire Jade Phoenix!

Seeing this, Chang Fen thrust his long spear forward. The spear tip condensed crimson spiritual radiance, forcefully splitting that dragon qi down the middle.

The two separated at a touch, then immediately collided together again like two meteors.

The sound of sword and spear clashing was incessant, spiritual power surging and stirring up gusts of violent wind.

Thirty exchanges passed in a flash. Lu Yuxiu gradually urged the Black Dragon Art to its extreme. The faint shadow of a black flood dragon appeared around his body. His sword momentum became increasingly heavy and overwhelming, actually forcing Chang Fen to retreat repeatedly.

"Senior Brother, kill him!"

"Senior Brother, don't show mercy!"

"Senior Brother, avenge our sect disciples!"

Seeing this, the Black Dragon Sect disciples' cheers immediately rose.

The Black Dragon Sect disciples' consecutive defeats just now had indeed greatly damaged their confidence.

At this time, Xiao Mo's group had also arrived at the battlefield, watching Lu Yuxiu and Chang Fen battle.

"Senior Brother Lu has already gained the upper hand. That Chang Fen looks like he can't handle it!" Zheng Shanhan said excitedly.

Lou Tai nodded, "Worthy of being Senior Brother Lu. This Chang Fen will undoubtedly die!"

"What's wrong, Fifth Brother?" Zheng Shanhan looked at his fifth brother and discovered his brow was slightly furrowed, his expression very grave.

"It's nothing..." Xiao Mo shook his head, "I just feel this Chang Fen seems somewhat extraordinary. I'm worried Senior Brother Lu might fall into his trap."

"Hahaha, Fifth Brother, don't worry," Zheng Shanhan patted Xiao Mo's shoulder, speaking with pride, "Our Senior Brother Lu is a genius. Killing this Chang Fen is nothing!"

"Mm," Xiao Mo nodded without saying more.

However, Xiao Mo transmitted his voice to ask Sili beside him, "If I expose my Ten Thousand Dao Sect identity, what would happen?"

"Emm..." Sili thought seriously for a moment, "The Black Dragon Sect Master is famously a gentleman. The conflict with our Ten Thousand Dao Sect back then was only because our predecessors fought over a woman. If Young Master is exposed, there shouldn't be any danger to your life. At most, you'd be driven away."

"Does Young Master intend to..." Sili vaguely had a guess in her heart.

"Let's see. I'm also very interested in this Hundun fierce beast. No matter what, at least it can't be obtained by the Imperial Beast Sect."

Xiao Mo shook his head and continued watching the battlefield.

At this time, although Chang Fen was retreating steadily, his retreat wasn't chaotic. Instead, the battle intent in his eyes became even more intense.

He suddenly shocked the sword aside with one spear strike, then blew an urgent whistle. Hearing the sound, the Fire Jade Phoenix cried out long. Its wings flapped once, and a sky full of flaming rain poured down, temporarily blocking Lu Yuxiu's pursuing momentum.

"The Black Dragon Art truly lives up to its reputation," Chang Fen caught his breath, but his face showed an even more excited smile, "Unfortunately, it's still a bit lacking."

Before his words finished, the red light from the long spear in his hand blazed brightly. Man and spear seemed to merge as one, transforming into a crimson streak of light, directly stabbing toward Lu Yuxiu's heart.

Lu Yuxiu blocked horizontally with his sword. The black dragon shadow coiled in front of him, forming a shield.

Boom!

Spear and sword collided again, erupting with a deafening roar.

The black dragon shadow and crimson spear radiance fiercely strangled each other. The dissipating spiritual power tore deep marks in the surrounding ground.

The stalemate lasted only a few breaths. Chang Fen roared once, and his spear tip suddenly broke through the dragon shadow's defense. Lu Yuxiu's face turned pale. He was shocked by that tremendous force and sent flying backward, heavily crashing to the ground. The long sword in his hand also flew from his grip, stabbing into the ground not far away.

He still wanted to struggle to his feet, but a shadow had already loomed over him.

Chang Fen's figure appeared before him like a ghost. One foot heavily stepped on his chest, completely scattering the breath he had just gathered.

That scorching long spear, carrying a heart-palpitating cold gleam, its tip precisely stopped between Lu Yuxiu's brows.

"He lost?"

"Senior Brother... actually lost?"

"How is this possible?!"

The entire place instantly fell into deathly silence. All gazes froze on the defeated Senior Brother, full of shock and disbelief.

In the Black Dragon Sect disciples' hearts, their Senior Brother who was invincible among peers had actually been defeated...

Chang Fen looked down from above at the defeated person beneath his feet, the corners of his mouth slowly curving up, "So what if you reached Nascent Soul perfection at thirty? I stepped into this realm a full five years earlier than you."

Before his words finished, he raised his long spear high again, but deliberately slowed his movements, as if enjoying every moment of his opponent's dying struggles, deliberately prolonging this torment.

"Senior Brother!!!"

Just as Chang Fen seemed to have finally had enough fun and the spear tip was about to stab down, along with the Black Dragon Sect disciples' anguished cries, a sharp blade light suddenly cut through everyone's vision.

"Clang!"

Blade and spear shaft violently collided, emitting a piercing metallic ring.

Chang Fen's brow couldn't help but tighten. The long spear in his hand was actually steadily caught by the blade of a Tang sword, unable to descend another half inch!

"Fifth Brother?!"

Zheng Shanhan and Lou Tai stood frozen in place, staring blankly at their fifth brother's figure.

They never imagined that the person standing protectively before Senior Brother at this moment would actually be Fifth Brother?

No, wait.

Rather, they should say, Fifth Brother could actually block such a spear strike?

Wasn't Fifth Brother Foundation Building realm?

"Boom!"

A rich blood baleful qi erupted from Xiao Mo's body, instantly shocking Chang Fen and sending him flying backward.

Chang Fen retreated more than twenty zhang backward before barely stabilizing his form. Numbness came from his tiger's mouth, and the blood baleful qi was eroding his body even more.

Chang Fen took a deep breath and forced the blood baleful qi out of his body. His cold eyes stared at the suddenly appearing man. No longer underestimating like before, his voice carried a sharp edge, "You're somewhat interesting. State your name."

"Just an outer sect disciple."

The instant Xiao Mo's words fell, the Tang sword in his hand had already slashed out sharply.

The blade light seemed to condense into one line with heaven and earth!
