Martial Master

“Hmm? This Shangguan Xi'er is actually not dead?”

Qin Chen frowned. Shangguan Xi'er’s defense is indeed strong. That sword just now was first blocked by the golden bracelet, reducing seventy percent of its power. By the time it landed on Shangguan Xi'er, only thirty percent remained. Yet even that thirty percent is no small matter. I didn't expect Shangguan Xi'er to withstand it. Her defensive power after being demonized is simply frightening.

In the Qiankun Creation Jade Plate, everyone clearly saw this scene and was secretly astonished. Shangguan Xi'er is indeed strong, actually able to block a sword from Chen Shao and remain alive.

Everyone gritted their teeth, wishing that Qin Chen would slay Shangguan Xi'er with one sword. Only the master of the Illusory Demon Sect had a complex expression, revealing a hint of bitterness in her gaze.

She had always wanted to kill Shangguan Xi'er to avenge Qin Chen, wishing for Shangguan Xi'er to die. But when Shangguan Xi'er was truly on the verge of death in front of her, the master of the Illusory Demon Sect couldn’t clearly articulate her feelings.

She remembered scenes from her childhood, where her elder sister was like a mother to her. In her heart, her sister was a maternal figure. But later, her sister secretly harmed the HongYan Martial Emperor for power, and since then, the sisters turned against each other.

The master of the Illusory Demon Sect’s hands gradually tightened, her eyes glowing with hatred. No, her sister deserves to die. She should not have killed HongYan; she had so many ways to gain power, yet she chose the most cruel method.

Unforgivable.

Two drops of tears rolled down from the corners of the master of the Illusory Demon Sect’s eyes. Yet underneath the tears, her gaze was incredibly resolute. What her sister did could never be forgiven.

At that moment, Mo Yuanbai coldly snorted from the side, “This Shangguan Xi'er indeed deserves to die. If it weren't for her betraying her master back then and teaming up with Feng Shaoyu to cause his downfall, Master wouldn’t have suffered so much.”

Upon hearing this, the master of the Illusory Demon Sect's body shook as if she had been electrocuted.

“Mo Sect Master, what did you say? What do you mean Qin Chen was betrayed by Shangguan Xi'er and Feng Shaoyu?”

Chen Sisi and the others were momentarily stunned.

Mo Yuanbai himself was taken aback. “You all didn’t know? Master is... the HongYan Martial Emperor.”

He was shocked in his heart. Could it be that they all didn’t know? Oh no, did I say something wrong? Would Master kill me if he found out?

“Are you saying that Chen Shao is the HongYan Martial Emperor who was famous across the continent three hundred years ago? How is that possible?”

Chen Sisi and the others were in a daze, feeling incredulous.

The HongYan Martial Emperor, a renowned powerhouse known throughout the world. In their hearts, they only held admiration for him. But now, Mo Yuanbai claimed that Qin Chen was the HongYan Martial Emperor from three hundred years ago. This… was shocking and terrifying in their eyes.

“No wonder…” At this moment, You Qianxue, Ji Ruyue, and Chen Sisi all suddenly understood, especially You Qianxue, whose body trembled in realization.

Starting from the Five Nations, Chen Shao had demonstrated astonishing talent and power. In front of Chen Shao, it seemed there was no difficulty at all; any problem could not stump him.

Now, the three finally understood. If Chen Shao was the reincarnation of the HongYan Martial Emperor from three hundred years ago, then everything made sense.

The HongYan Martial Emperor was the brightest star in the history of Tianwu Continent for nearly a thousand years, the dream lover of countless women, and the idol of men.

I never expected that Chen Shao was actually the reincarnation of the HongYan Martial Emperor.

No wonder he harbored such hatred for Shangguan Xi'er and Feng Shaoyu.

Everything connected in the minds of You Qianxue and the others. Chen Shao… really kept this secret from them for so long.
