As Xu Chen swooped over like a strong wind, the Cold Ice Sword had already slashed straight towards Shangguan Yu with the power of a broken mountain and a cracked stone.

Seeing that Shangguan Yu was about to die under Xu Chen's sword, a golden sword suddenly flashed in front of him, blocking Xu Chen's sword.

Xu Chen looked at it coldly and found that a slender middle-aged man was holding a knife in front of him and Shangguan Yu.

This man was dressed in a yellow brocade scarf, exuding a compelling momentum all over his body, Xu Chen had now cultivated to the Refining Void Realm, and could detect the flowing aura of the other party's true qi, he just glanced at this middle-aged man, and knew that this person had the same strength as himself.

At the same time, he took the opportunity to observe his surroundings, and found that it was an open valley, with a low thatched hut on the edge of the cliff that he had broken out, and in the overgrown yard were many dusty wine jars, some of which had broken into several pieces and scattered on the ground because of their age.

Xu Chen glanced in through the half-collapsed window frame, and roughly saw that it was dark and damp inside, obviously this was a lonely and deserted mansion.

Turning his head to the side again, Shangguan Yu was looking at himself viciously, the middle-aged man in yellow was holding a knife in front of this guy, and behind him were dozens of strong men wearing the warrior costumes of Qingfeng Villa, half of them drew their swords and glared at him angrily, while the other half of them held bows and arrows, aiming at the group of heroes trapped in front of them.

The man in yellow said coldly: "Boy, I advise you to surrender obediently, maybe my young master can spare your life!"

Xu Chen ignored him, his gaze was still on the side of the group of heroes, and he saw Tie Jiugong and the others sitting cross-legged on the ground, with a look of pain on their faces, presumably they were all forcibly trying their luck to resist the damage caused by the Nine Yao Nightmare Demon Array.

There were several corpses lying on the ground behind them, and Xu Chen looked at them and recognized that these dead people were all Xuantianmen disciples who had come to Ao'an Mountain with him.

Whether it was the dozen or so people trapped in the formation, or these corpses, Xu Chen didn't find Huang Xiaoxue, Lin Yu and Zhao Lei from them, he couldn't help but be anxious, and shouted at Shangguan Yu with his sword: "Dog thief, what did you do to Miss Huang?"

Shangguan Yu said angrily: "Actually, I also care about this chick, but unfortunately I don't know where she is." ”

"Do you think I'm so easy to deceive? Master tells you, if Miss Huang and my Senior Brother Lin are missing a hair, don't think about leaving here alive today!"

Although he said it in a loud voice, hearing Shangguan Yu say that he didn't know the whereabouts of Huang Xiaoxue and the others, Xu Chen couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief in his heart.

"With a stupid pig like you, do you still need this son to fool you?" Shangguan Yu smiled evilly, and then said: "I'm also very strange, my subordinates reported to me that they saw a chick surnamed Huang go up the mountain with these people, but there is no figure of her here. But don't worry, I've already arranged for someone to search, and it won't be long before she can go to Yellow Springs with you. ”

At this time, one of his subordinates interjected with a lewd smile and said, "Young master, it's a pity to kill it directly, it's better to let the little one enjoy it first and then send this little girl on the road." ”

"Smack", Shangguan Yu gave the dog a slap with his backhand, and then said with a wicked smile: "You dare to rob Lao Tzu of this kind of thing, you are impatient, right?"

"Dog thief, go die!" Hearing them blaspheme Huang Xiaoxue like this, Xu Chen's lungs exploded, he suddenly accelerated, rushed towards Shangguan Yu, and then slashed at his head with a sword.

With a "bang", it was the middle-aged man in yellow who blocked Xu Chen's attack with a knife, and at the same time, the sinister Shangguan Yu also attacked Xu Chen with a sword, vainly trying to kill him with a sword.

The distance between the two was so close, Xu Chen had no luck to resist Shangguan Yu's attack, and in a hurry, he raised the Xuanwu shield he had been holding in his left hand to meet him.

Shangguan Yu's sword bombarded the shield surface, and he suddenly felt a numbness in his arm, followed by the power of his own attack all rebounded, and the person was instantly shocked and flew out of the way.

"You, what are you holding in your hand?" Shangguan Yu screamed, his original arrogant expression frozen on his face.

"Hillbilly, haven't you seen this artifact?" Xu Chen taunted Shangguan Yulai, "This is the legendary Xuanwu Shield!"

"Xuanwu Shield!" Everyone present was dumbfounded, no one thought that this artifact that people in cultivation had dreamed of would actually be obtained by this young man.

"Alas, this kid is really honest. Fu Qianjiao sighed lightly, glanced at Tie Jiugong, and both of them lowered their eyes slightly.

Both of them understood in their hearts that Xu Chen recklessly said the name of the divine weapon in his hand at this moment, how could Shangguan Yu give up and take the artifact for himself.

They didn't know that Xu Chen already had the strength of a god general after coming out of the Yin Yang Five Elements Tower, and they were still worried about how this stunned boy from the Qi Transformation Realm could be the enemy of the gang brought by Shangguan Yu.

Sure enough, after Shangguan Yu heard Xu Chen say the words Xuanwu Shield, his eyes immediately showed greed, and then he waved his hand, and those sturdy men with weapons immediately rushed forward and surrounded Xu Chen.

"Xu Da, this son not only wants to get the artifact today, but also sends you to see the king of Hades!"

"Phew, do your big dreams of the Spring and Autumn Festival, and you want to covet the artifact with your little ability?" Xu Chen looked up to the sky and smiled, the muscles in his arms suddenly tensed and bulged, and he was ready to kill.

"Young Master, do you know him?" The middle-aged man in yellow was also looking at the shield in Xu Chen's hand, and at this moment he had turned his gaze to Shangguan Yu next to him.

Before Shangguan Yu could reply, a thin-faced young man next to him jumped out and said to the man in yellow: "It's this kid, who plotted against my young master last time when he competed in Mingyue Villa!"

"Really?" the man in yellow replied lightly, swinging the long knife in his hand, signaling everyone not to attack Xu Chen for the time being.

At this time, the middle-aged man had already activated the true qi in his body and injected it into the blade, although it was only a golden halo flashing on the tip of the knife, but anyone with a clear eye knew that it contained extremely destructive energy.

I saw him look at Xu Chen and said, "Boy, you have offended my young master, and today you can only pay for your crime with death." ”

"Oh, then why don't you swarm up, young master, I'm not a vegetarian either!" Xu Chen confronted each other, relying on the Xuanwu Shield in his hand, and didn't take these people in his eyes at all.

How do you know that this middle-aged man actually said to Xu Chen: "With your thin body, do you still need many of us, do you dare to have a gambling fight with me?"

It turned out that this person saw that Xu Chen did not have a panicked expression in the face of so many people on his side, so he knew that he was a man, but the other party had offended Shangguan Yu, so he couldn't spare Xu Chen lightly, so he wanted to leave a whole corpse for this brave and fearless young man to show his respect for the other party.

"What are you betting on?" Xu Chen was stunned, he didn't know what the middle-aged man was thinking, and he thought that the other party wanted to play some conspiracy.

The middle-aged man said: "We are one-on-one, if you lose, you will be cut off by yourself, and I will also take the Xuanwu Shield." ”

"Hmph, I'm really good at wishful thinking. Xu Chen sneered and responded: "What if I win?"

"If you outsmart the knife in my hand, you'll get out alive. ”

"Phew, it's not fair at all, the Xuanwu shield in the master's hand is so worthless?" Xu Chen said angrily: "If I defeat you, you will release all the Tie seniors and others!"

The middle-aged man was silent, and looked at Shangguan Yu, after all, he couldn't be the master of this matter.

Shangguan Yu stared at Xu Chen with interest, and began to think about it in his heart.

The last time he faced off against Xu Chen, this kid had the same cultivation in the Qi Transformation Realm as himself, but the level of cultivation was obviously lower than his own, if someone hadn't secretly helped him poison himself, this kid would have been a dead corpse at that time.

Standing in front of him right now, but Chu Xiong, one of the leaders of Qingfeng Villa, has the strength of refining the second layer of the Void Realm, I don't know how many times more powerful than this kid, this gamble is definitely a sure win, what kind of ability does this surnamed Xu have to turn the tables?

Thinking of this, Shangguan Yu showed a wicked smile on his face, so he said to Xu Chen: "Whoever told this son to be in a good mood today, let the head of the Chu sect play with you today." ”

"This is what you said, don't regret it!" Xu Chen was secretly overjoyed, knowing that Shangguan Yu still didn't know his true cultivation, he hurriedly put on a sword posture, preparing to defeat this sect leader in three or two strokes and rescue the group of heroes trapped in the formation.

"Wait!" Seeing that the duel between the two sides was about to begin, Shangguan Yu suddenly spoke again, "I still have something to say." ”

"Are you a dog thief scared and ready to pay your debts?" Xu Chen suddenly became angry.

Shangguan Yu said coldly: "My son is a bodhisattva, I'm afraid that some people will have bad intentions towards me." After speaking, he turned his eyes to Tie Jiugong and the others who were meditating on the ground.

Qunxiong immediately understood the meaning of his words, and the cunning Ouyang Lin immediately spoke: "If we can leave Ao'an Mountain safely, today's incident will be written off, and nothing will happen as if nothing happened." ”

"Lord Ouyang is really refreshing, but you have to promise me that you will never divulge what you have experienced in Ao'an Mountain. Shangguan Yuyin smiled and said, "In order to prevent your words from being unfounded, you should swear a poisonous oath in front of me now, so that I can believe you." ”

Only then did Xu Chen understand what Shangguan Yu was afraid of in his heart, it turned out that this thief was afraid that he would win this gambling battle, and the heroes would go to Qingfeng Villa to retaliate after going down the mountain, he couldn't help laughing and said: "You are really a thief fox, you have thought of a way out before the battle starts!"

Shangguan Yu said coldly: "The world is sinister, how can I not leave a way out for myself." ”

"That's right, Shangguan Gongzi's consideration is very reasonable. Situ Kong said: "In this case, my brothers and sisters swear here, lest Shangguan Gongzi go back and not even sleep well." ”

After speaking, the two brothers made a poisonous oath in front of everyone that if they repented, they would die with ten thousand swords and ten thousand hearts.

"Then you guys, don't you want to make an oath?" Shangguan Yu turned his eyes to look at Fu Qianjiao and the others.

Fu Qianjiao sighed, and was about to learn from Situ Kong to swear an oath, when Tie Jiugong roared angrily: "Let me swear to this kid, he is daydreaming!"

Situ Kong was anxious, for fear that Tie Jiugong's fiery temper would anger Shangguan Yu, so he hurriedly said to Tie Jiugong: "Tie Laoman, when are you still dead to save face! I won't wait to talk about today's incident, who knows that you have planted a fight here!"

Tie Jiugong didn't make a sound, but just glared at Shangguan Yu with angry eyes.

Shangguan Yu was really angered by Tie Jiugong, turned his head to his subordinates and said, "Put arrows at Lao Tzu, shoot this old immortal first!"
