Chen Yuan had long heard of this name.

Bai Changqing stood up, glanced at Zhao Hao on the ground, turned his gaze to Chen Yuan, and said softly:

"Bai Changqing from Mount Shu, greetings, Envoy Chen."

"You haven't answered my question yet."

"Zhao Hao has some connection with a senior of Mount Shu. I wonder what he did to offend Envoy Chen? I, Bai, wish to spare his life." Bai Changqing nodded slightly.

"He didn't offend me, but the laws of the court. You... cannot protect him."

Chen Yuan met Bai Changqing's gaze, without dodging or evading.

The other party's reputation was indeed resounding, but he was not someone to be trifled with.

If it were some minor matter, the other party might be able to save Zhao Hao by paying some price, but this was no small matter. Besides Jiang He, Chen Yuan himself had a reason to kill him.

If he didn't kill him, where would his Destiny come from?

Where would his opportunity lie?

He had finally encountered someone with Destiny, how could he let him go?

On the other hand, Bai Changqing and Shangguan Yu, in his eyes, although they possessed some strength, did not have a cyan glow on their bodies. It seemed that Destiny was indeed a bit mysterious.

It was not something you could have just because you were strong or had amazing talent.

Chen Yuan's voice was not loud, but it carried an indisputable aura. Even though the other party was Bai Changqing, he showed no intention of backing down, which made the light in Shangguan Yu's eyes even brighter.

If Bai Changqing hadn't stepped forward, he would have found an excuse to spar with Chen Yuan to test the power of this Demon Blade, and see if it was as divine as the rumors claimed.

Defeating Zhao Hao earlier didn't count, even he could easily kill that guy.

The difference between the top ten on the Hidden Dragon List and those outside the top ten was still very significant.

Bai Changqing frowned slightly and said in a deep voice:

"Does Envoy Chen truly intend to kill him?"

"Anyone who defies will die!"

Zhao Hao on the ground flashed a look of despair and quickly said:

"Brother Bai... cough cough... this person must have been sent by Jiang He. I hope Brother Bai can save me for the sake of Senior Li."

Sensing Chen Yuan's determination to kill him, Zhao Hao couldn't care less about anything else and directly revealed Senior Li's identity. Furthermore, he explained Chen Yuan's purpose for killing him.

He was certain that he had no past grievances or present animosity with Chen Yuan. Aside from provoking him with a few words earlier, he had no connection with Chen Yuan at all.

However, the other party's determination to kill him was very strong, and he must have been ordered by Jiang He.

"Old grudges from many years ago, can it be that Gold Envoy Jiang still can't let them go?"

Clearly, Bai Changqing had some understanding of Zhao Hao's background.

To this, Chen Yuan simply said calmly:

"I don't want to explain anything, nor do I need to explain to you. Today, I am determined to kill Zhao Hao, and no one can stop me. If you don't want to interfere, then step aside.

If you want to interfere, then feel free to fight me!"

The cold voice echoed in everyone's ears.

In fact, after guessing Bai Changqing's identity earlier, he knew that the other party was likely to take action, because he had long known from Jiang He that the person protecting Zhao Hao was an elder of Mount Shu.

Since it was related to Bai Changqing, then his intervention was only natural.

Moreover, Chen Yuan was not afraid of the other party, and even had some fighting spirit. Since he had climbed to the twentieth position on the Hidden Dragon List, he had directly entered the top ten without fighting anyone in the top ten.

He was inherently curious about those geniuses in the top ten, and he didn't mind a battle.

Bai Changqing nodded:

"Very well, I have long heard of Envoy Chen's name. How about we decide his life or death with a battle? If I, Bai, win, then Envoy Chen will spare his life and let this matter pass.

If Envoy Chen wins, then I, Bai, will retreat."

Chen Yuan sneered and leaped from the giant ship, standing in the air. He did not answer Bai Changqing's words. Today, regardless of victory or defeat, Zhao Hao had to die.

Even if he had to resort to other means, he would not hesitate.

Seeing that Chen Yuan did not reply, Bai Changqing assumed that he had agreed to his conditions. Immediately, he did not say much, and his figure flashed across afterimages, uniformly standing in the air above the Guangling River.

The two were about a hundred meters apart, and their auras gradually clashed and collided.

The seventh versus the sixth on the Hidden Dragon List.

This was definitely big news.

Most importantly, neither of them had ever suffered a defeat in the same realm. Shangguan Yu below, with his hands behind his back, looked at the two from afar with a solemn expression.

Except for a few people who had old ties with Zhao Hao, no one paid attention to him anymore.

Of course, it was impossible for him to secretly escape. Although the crowd was not watching him, someone was definitely paying attention to him. Zhao Hao let out a breath,

praying in his heart that Bai Changqing could kill this damned Chen Yuan.

More and more martial artists gathered on the shore. The people who had scattered in panic also began to gradually gather, wanting to see this battle between the top ten on the Hidden Dragon List.

Would the seventh surpass the sixth, and the ranking change, or would the sixth maintain his winning streak and stop this dark horse, Chen Yuan?

Many people, including Shangguan Yu, were very curious about Chen Yuan's strength, because this person's growth rate was too fast. Every time the Hidden Dragon List was updated, he would advance a big step.

Therefore, there were many doubts about his strength in the martial world. Some said that he had the talent of a peerless genius, which was why he had progressed so rapidly. Others said that he was good at hiding his strength.

In fact, his strength was amazing, but he just didn't want to show it off.

Didn't you see that he had never challenged the geniuses on the Hidden Dragon List?

"Please!"

Bai Changqing nodded slightly. The scabbard behind him made a sound of a sword cry. The long sword was unsheathed and fell into his hand. The sword body was more than three feet long, and the whole body was transparent.

The style was simple and unadorned, and mysterious patterns were engraved on the sword body.

This was a spirit sword, a spirit sword that Bai Changqing had nurtured since he was a child.

The sword's name was Pure Yang!

The Mount Shu Sword Sect had such a tradition. Every disciple was given a treasure sword when they entered the mountain. The value of the treasure sword was not high, but it had the potential to grow.

Various rare materials could be continuously added to it to improve the quality of the treasure sword.

Over time, there was a great hope of nurturing spirituality.

This was the secret method of Mount Shu, and it was not passed on to outsiders. Originally, they would carry a sword box, and only after nurturing spirituality could they remove the sword box.

"Please."

Chen Yuan pointed his saber at Bai Changqing.

He didn't have much ill feeling towards him. This was just a battle between the two sides. The other party was neither arrogant nor sarcastic, compared to that,

he was more like a gentleman.

True essence surged, qi and blood gathered, Chen Yuan took the lead, and the dragon's roar resounded for thousands of meters, as if a real dragon had broken through the waves from under the Guangling River. A terrifying saber light of nearly twenty feet long slashed out straight.

As soon as he made a move, Chen Yuan didn't hold back.

Bai Changqing, who was ranked sixth on the Hidden Dragon List, deserved to be treated with caution.

Faced with Chen Yuan's aggressive saber light, Bai Changqing's calm face gradually turned solemn. The long sword stabbed straight, and dozens of sharp sword qi surged out, like swimming dragons.

The saber light and sword qi collided, making a huge roaring sound.

The explosive aura set off heat waves around, and the splashing sword qi shot on the Guangling River below, sweeping up waves one after another.

The contest began!

Bai Changqing stepped out, holding the Pure Yang Sword in his hand, pointing it at the void, and slashed a sword towards Chen Yuan. The vitality vibrated, and the sword qi exuded a powerful aura. Chen Yuan's qi and blood surged, and his single arm shook.

The fist force shattered his sword qi.

Sword qi, saber light, fist force....

In an instant, the scene entered a white-hot stage. The two were far apart, constantly bombarding out the sword qi and fist force in their hands, making roaring sounds in the void.

It had to be said that Bai Changqing was very strong. Chen Yuan met such an opponent for the first time, and he was not at all at a disadvantage. Even facing him, Bai Changqing still had a slight advantage.

It was just that it was not obvious.

Their struggle was shocking to the ordinary martial artists and people below, it was simply like immortals.

Walking in the void, standing in the air, sword qi flying, saber light cutting the sky....

In just ten breaths, the two had fought more than a hundred times in a row. The Guangling River below set off huge waves, and even some fish and shrimp were blasted out by the powerful vitality of the two.

Shangguan Yu let out a breath and looked solemn.

Although neither of the two in front of him had used their trump cards yet, even the collision during this period was enough for him to treat it with caution.

It was not to say that he could not stop it, but he had a new understanding of the two people in the void.

Both of them were well-deserved!

Chen Yuan and Bai Changqing moved as they fought, often arriving in an instant, and then retreating in an instant. Every time they moved their bodies, it was dozens of meters.

In comparison, Chen Yuan's movement technique did not have any advantage, but was at a disadvantage.

Bai Changqing's movement technique was elegant, like an antelope hanging its horns, unpredictable. It was as if he had shrunk the ground under his feet. Whenever Chen Yuan wanted to get close, he could take a step back in advance.

Yes, Chen Yuan wanted to fight in close combat!

Chen Yuan did not have an advantage in such a bombardment of sword qi and fist force. Only close combat could unleash his full power. As everyone knew, sword cultivators had weak physical bodies.

Even if they had some body refining cultivation, it was definitely not high.

If it was close combat, the victory or defeat would be decided more quickly.

Bai Changqing seemed to know Chen Yuan's plan and had not given him a chance, just constantly bursting out sword qi, as if his true essence was endless.

The surging sword qi was like falling rain, and the entire area of hundreds of feet was surrounded by sword qi. To this, Chen Yuan either shattered it with a punch or destroyed it with a saber.

The confrontation between the two was concise, but it also contained extremely terrifying power.

"Boom!"

With another blow, Bai Changqing flashed his body and came behind Chen Yuan. His eyes narrowed, and the Pure Yang Sword in his hand floated in the void. Then, he pinched his sword fingers, and a stream of true essence was attached.

"Spring Breeze and Rain Falling!"

Bai Changqing murmured softly. The next moment, the Pure Yang Sword rushed straight to Chen Yuan's chest.

The long sword carried the momentum and suppressed Chen Yuan.

Without turning around, Chen Yuan sensed a fatal danger coming towards him. Immediately, the long-accumulated aura in his body erupted, and he turned around and slashed.

The Three Sabers of Abi Dao - the Killing Dao of Avici!

"Boom!"

The surging sword qi exploded, and the Pure Yang Sword stagnated for a moment on the dark black saber light. Then, the power of both sides was completely annihilated and shattered.

Holding the Pure Yang Sword in his hand, Bai Changqing's face was calm:

"Not bad."

"You're also very good."

Chen Yuan replied.

"To be able to fight Bai to this point with the cultivation of Tianyuan, Envoy Chen is indeed extraordinary. If you step into the late stage of Tongxuan, it will be difficult for Bai to win against you."

Bai Changqing said in a deep voice.

After a fierce battle, he recognized Chen Yuan's strength. He was indeed very strong and worthy of the seventh position on the Hidden Dragon List. It was just a pity that his cultivation was a bit lacking.

Chen Yuan smiled and said nothing more.

"If Envoy Chen retreats now, we will be safe and sound. How about a draw?"

"I said, Zhao Hao is doomed to die, no one can stop it!"

Chen Yuan took a deep breath, and his qi and blood made a tiger and leopard thunder sound. Just now, that was the cultivation of refining qi. He had not shown the true strength of refining the body.

It was not that he didn't want to, but the other party's movement technique was too exquisite to lock him down.

"Bai never suppresses people with realm. Whether it was just now or now, as long as Envoy Chen can take Bai's next sword, Bai will retreat from Zhao Hao's matter."

"What means do you have? Please use them, Chen Yuan is not afraid!"

Chen Yuan's aura that had been brewing erupted, soaring into the sky. The sound of roaring resounded from his body, and his qi and blood stirred, turning into a great dragon!

Bai Changqing gently stroked the Pure Yang Sword with his sword fingers and said in a low voice:

"This sword is a sword that Bai comprehended two years ago. Over the past two years, several experts have wanted to challenge Bai, but they have all been defeated by this sword. Envoy Chen, be careful."

"This sword is called, Falling from the Nine Heavens!" (Luo Jiu Xiao)

Then, Bai Changqing jumped up and went straight into the sky, pulling away from Chen Yuan by a hundred feet. As the sword momentum rose, the rain fell and the sky was shocked, and a strong killing intent erupted.

From top to bottom, Bai Changqing looked down at Chen Yuan, his eyes turned cold, and his sword intent enveloped him.

It was like a leaning sky, rushing straight at Chen Yuan.

"So it's a sword technique that comes from the sky." Chen Yuan looked up and said silently in his heart.

Then, his figure did not retreat or evade, and a sound similar to a sonic boom was emitted under his feet. From bottom to top, he threw a punch.

The two, one above and one below, collided with two terrifying auras in the sight of everyone.

An unprecedented explosion sound, like a mountain collapsing, the Guangling River below instantly exploded a huge pit, and white waves rose several feet high.

Even the big ship was affected.

The void seemed to freeze, and everyone held their breath, paying close attention to this scene.

The next moment, the body-protecting gang qi of both sides shattered inch by inch.

The Pure Yang Sword made a cry of sorrow. The transparent armor that Chen Yuan obtained from the Yuankong Realm Huaruandaoist was instantly broken by the sword qi, leaving subtle sword marks on his body.

The Blood Bodhi that he was holding in his mouth was swallowed without showing any emotion, and it instantly turned into a force, repairing the injuries on his body, and it was healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Bai Changqing's originally tied-up long hair was also scattered. He couldn't see any change in his face, but he tapped in the void and pulled away from Chen Yuan.

With a calm aura and a long temperament, he said in a deep voice:

"Since Envoy Chen has blocked this sword, Bai should keep his word and no longer interfere."

Zhao Hao on the boat showed a look of complete despair in his eyes when he heard this sentence. He wanted to shout something, but finally lowered his head.

Shangguan Yu, who was standing, looked solemn, frowned slightly, and his eyes flickered over the two.

After saying that, Bai Changqing was about to turn around and leave.

"Please wait."

Chen Yuan called out softly.

"Does Envoy Chen have anything else to say?" Bai Changqing asked softly with a long temperament.

"I took a sword from you, you should also take a punch from me, as a matter of reciprocity." Chen Yuan looked at him and said lightly.
