Chapter 116: Exposure

  A long knife pierced through the air, arriving in an instant. The sharpness of it made Feng Xuan's face change greatly. In this brief moment, he abruptly stopped his advancing body and dodged to the side, avoiding the knife by a hair's breadth. Ye Chen turned the blade and swept it horizontally towards him.

  Feng Hui's palm slapped onto the long knife, his body flying in mid-air, dodging the attack. But Ye Chen was not just limited to these two moves, aside from the Jiuyao sword, his usual sword techniques were all self-taught, although unorthodox, their continuity was undeniable.

  The long knife was slapped down by a palm, and Ye Chen's body also leaned forward, the long knife flipped over, Ye Chen's two hands lifted up, Feng Chui stopped in mid-air again, and against the rules of gravity, he rose again, dodging Ye Chen's must-win slash.

  The two of them went back and forth for dozens of rounds, Ye Chen's strange swordsmanship was still unfolding with the long knife, but those continuous sword moves directly suppressed the fifth-stage strongman Feng Chui, leaving him no room to resist, and he had to spend a lot of energy dodging.

  Feng Cong's face was solemn, his spirit concentrated, wanting to find Ye Chen's weakness, emptiness, and make a desperate counterattack. After all, he was a fifth-stage strongman, compared to the opponent's second-stage strength, still having a deep internal force foundation.

  However, after dozens of moves had passed, Feng Yu discovered that Ye Chen hadn't slowed down his speed at all, and was still as fast as ever. That sharp aura made Feng Yu not dare to use his own body to meet it head-on, and he understood that this sharp aura could absolutely harm him.

  But dodging and hiding is not a solution, looking at the little guy in front of him, purely instinctual attacks, yet so coherent, Feng Xuan doesn't know how much longer he can dodge, but Feng Xuan couldn't wait any longer, no opportunity also wants to create opportunities.

  A second-order little guy made himself so embarrassed, if others knew about it, they would laugh to death. Feng Chui's face turned fierce, his body quickly appeared beside a middle-aged man of the same rank, and with one grab, he caught the man.

  The man was still bewildered and didn't know why the old man beside him grabbed him, when he felt a sharp pain rushing to his chest. Ye Chen's long knife had locked onto Feng Chui in general, wherever Feng Chui went, the long knife followed, completely following Feng Chui.

  Feng Huan grabbed the man and blocked him in front of himself, Ye Chen's instinctive reaction didn't make any evasive action at all, and directly stabbed a knife through the middle-aged man's body. The long knife continued to move forward without slowing down, still heading towards Feng Huan.

  But Feng Wan wanted just such a brief opportunity, and with a flick of his wrist, he sent the middle-aged man flying, clasped his hands together, and in an instant, a sword aura appeared in Feng Wan's hand. "Go!" A urgent voice flashed out.

  That sword energy flew towards Ye Chen, growing bigger and bigger during the process, and by the time it reached Ye Chen's face, it was already over a meter long. Ye Chen was shocked out of his infatuated state by a sense of crisis.

  Lu Ye's restored consciousness first saw a sword energy in front of him, and the sense of crisis made Lu Ye's hairs stand on end. He didn't even have time to draw his long knife, so he shifted his body to one side, trying to dodge this dangerous sword.

  But the long sword was too close to Ye Chen, Ye Chen dodged with all his might, but still couldn't avoid it completely. The long sword slashed through Ye Chen's chest, tearing his clothes apart, but the expected pain didn't appear. The long sword tore through Ye Chen's clothes and ripped them to one side.

  Ye Chen also looked at his own chest in some astonishment, even Ye Chen thought that the sword energy would bring himself heavy injury, but in the end it just tore through his clothes, which made Ye Chen feel unbelievable.

  But seeing the exposed black leather book, Ye Chen only then realized that it wasn't that the long sword couldn't harm him, but rather because the black leather book in his bosom had saved his life. The three books in his bosom, two black leather books and one Beast Taming Scripture, were all extremely heaven-defying books. It seemed that the paper capable of holding the secrets within these books wasn't ordinary either.

  Feng Kun was also somewhat stunned, his sword had clearly struck the opponent's body, but how did it only tear through their clothes without even scratching the surface of their skin? He then focused his eyes and saw that a book had blocked his sword energy.

  What book can block its own sword energy? In an instant, Feng Tie realized that this book was not simple, and a strong desire flashed in his eyes. His body flashed to Ye Chen's side, stretched out his hand, and wanted to grab the black leather book in Ye Chen's arms.

  At the same time, others also saw this scene and realized that this book was precious. It was a great secret that could be obtained at the risk of one's life, which was exactly what the two fourth-stage elders were seeking. At this moment, the two fourth-stage elders gave up everything and rushed straight towards Ye Chen.

  The figure that was originally dodging and weaving came to a stop, with an unusual glint in his eyes. For someone who aspired to be a thief, whenever treasure appeared before him, the first thought that occurred to him was how to get his hands on it, regardless of whether the process would be difficult or not.

  Traceless's speed was so fast that it only truly manifested at this moment, and even if the two fourth-order old men took a step ahead, Traceless could still overtake them, appearing in front of Ye Chen before the two old men.

  Wu Hen and Feng Wan reached out to Ye Chen's chest at almost the same time, Ye Chen also realized that the phenomenon shown in this book had already made these people think it was a book worth risking their lives for.

  He clutched at his chest, stumbling backward in an attempt to escape the plunder, but as Ye Chen came to, a wave of fatigue washed over him, his entire body weak and lethargic, barely able to muster the energy for even a single movement.

  Just as the opponent was about to get the secret recipe, a green light appeared on Ye Chen's chest. With two crisp sounds, Feng and Wu suddenly retreated, clutching their palms and frowning.

  A painful sensation came from their fingertips, causing both of them to take a deep breath and stare at Ye Chen's chest in shock. A green light formed a shield that blocked the two men's attacks while also making their fingers ache.

  At this time, the two fourth-level elders also arrived and saw Wú Hén in front of them. Suddenly, they had a tacit understanding and simultaneously drew their swords, wanting to settle Wú Hén with one strike. This was also a great opportunity, as the two fourth-level elders were very experienced in battle and wouldn't let this chance slip away.

  "Come on, you're not done yet? Have the guts to fight one-on-one? Two of you attacking someone who's even weaker than you is what kind of skill? You're shameless!" Wu Hen burst out in anger.

  But the two old men were determined to kill Wu Hen silently, and they didn't listen to his words. Instead, they spoke with their long swords, which stabbed from both sides.

  Two fourth-order elders exerted their full strength, and the aura they could exert was strong enough to directly block the road behind them.

  Traceless let out a loud roar, and at the same time his body moved, heading forward, directly passing in front of Ye Chen. However, he didn't make another grab for Ye Chen's chest, that emerald green glow was still flashing, Traceless' hand was still throbbing in pain, Traceless didn't want to come again.

  Wu Hen passed by Ye Chen's side, and the two long swords also attacked towards Ye Chen. Ye Chen's expression changed.
