A ruthless bandit from the celestial realm, he began his cultivation journey after kidnapping the Em

Cao Wushang: ? ? ?

Meeting Ye Chen's gaze, Cao Wushang froze on the spot, his smile gradually freezing...

A chill ran down my spine involuntarily...

It was as if they were being targeted by some terrifying being!

What happened?

"Senior brother...you...you have a cave dwelling, don't you?"

"There's no difference between Cave No. 20 and Cave No. 19, so why are you trying to seize my cave?"

Cao Wushang looked at Ye Chen nervously and said, in his heart, "Let's turn hostility into friendship..."

Although Ye Chen appears to have only the eighth level of Qi Refining, he is renowned, and every outer disciple knows that he has defeated Xie Huai'an, Meng Fan, and other powerful experts in succession.

Cao Wushang didn't want to clash with Ye Chen unless absolutely necessary...

Ye Chen glanced at him, snorted coldly, and said in a very arrogant manner.

"I, the Great King, enjoy raiding other people's caves, so what?"

"Weren't you pretty arrogant just now? Why are you acting like a coward now?"

"You're afraid to accept my challenge?"

......

Faced with Ye Chen's mockery, Cao Wushang's face darkened, and he clenched his fists in anger, his bones cracking, and veins bulging on his forehead...

He suppressed his anger and said in a humble voice, "Senior Brother Xu, we have no grudges against each other, why are you being so aggressive..."

"I only want to acquire a cave dwelling so I can smoothly enter the inner sect. Please don't make things difficult for me, Senior Brother..."

He didn't understand why Ye Chen would suddenly challenge him, since he hadn't offended the other party at all...

Seeing how patient he was, Ye Chen said irritably.

"So he's just a coward..."

"If you don't accept the challenge, that's considered admitting defeat. Don't even bother entering the cave; just get out of here..."

Upon hearing this, the expressions on the faces of the disciples watching the spectacle became quite interesting, and their gazes towards Cao Wushang held a hint of amusement...

"Haha, wasn't this kid pretty arrogant just now? Why is he chickening out now?"

"I thought he was so great, but he's just a bully who picks on the weak and fears the strong..."

"He only bullies Senior Brother Lü Luo, who is seriously injured. How could he dare to be arrogant in front of Senior Brother Xu..."

"Even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to fight Senior Brother Xu..."

"That's hilarious! If you're not brave enough to accept Senior Brother Xu's challenge, then you'd better get lost..."

......

Cao Wushang: ? ? ?

Hearing Ye Chen mock him for being a coward, Cao Wushang's face turned black with anger...

The overwhelming laughter and mockery from those around him infuriated him; he felt utterly humiliated...

If he leaves in such a disgraceful manner, how will he ever be able to survive in the Qingyun Sect again?

If one doesn't even have the courage to accept challenges, they will undoubtedly become a laughing stock among the outer sect members...

"Giggle..."

Cao Wushang clenched his fists, unable to suppress his anger any longer. He looked up at Ye Chen with a fierce expression and gritted his teeth as he shouted.

"Xu Xiao, don't go too far..."

"I know you're very powerful, having defeated Senior Brother Meng Fan and Senior Brother Xie Huai'an, but I, Cao Wushang, am not someone to be trifled with..."

"If you want to challenge me, I'm not afraid of you. Even if it costs me my life, I won't let you get away with it..."

......

He immediately made a harsh statement, refusing to back down in terms of momentum...

In his eyes, Ye Chen was only at the eighth level of Qi Refining, and he might not necessarily lose in a fight...

As for why Meng Fan and Xie Huai'an were defeated by Ye Chen, he couldn't understand it and just assumed they won by luck.

Seeing this, the surrounding disciples looked at Cao Wushang with a different gaze, as if they were looking at a fearless warrior...

"He actually dared to accept Senior Brother Xu's challenge? Is he courting death?"

"Are you courting death? Even the sword-obsessed Senior Brother Lin is no match for Senior Brother Xu, let alone him..."

"Doesn't this kid know Senior Brother Xu? He's too brave!"

"He actually dared to agree? Doesn't he have any idea of ​​his own capabilities?"

......

Everyone was surprised...

Everyone thought Cao Wushang would slink away, but to everyone's surprise, he actually accepted Ye Chen's challenge...

This was undoubtedly a suicidal act in everyone's eyes...

Who doesn't know Ye Chen's abilities?

Looking across the outer sect, there's probably no disciple who can rival him...

Ye Chen raised an eyebrow and looked at Cao Wushang in front of him with a smile.

"You said it yourself..."

"Don't call a halt later..."

He had initially worried that Cao Wushang wouldn't dare accept the challenge, and was considering switching caves with Lü Luo for a few days, but to his surprise, the other party actually agreed...

This actually saved him a lot of trouble.

Ye Chen took two steps forward and slowly stretched his limbs...

Seeing this, the disciples who were watching the commotion tactfully stepped back a few paces, making room for Ye Chen and Cao Wushang to fight...

Cao Wushang was still a little nervous, looking at Ye Chen warily, and did not rush to make a move.

Ye Chen glanced at him, a cold smile playing on his lips, and beckoned to Cao Wushang in front of him with a finger...

"Coward, bring it on..."

Upon hearing this, Cao Wushang's face darkened, and he was instantly enraged...

"This is outrageous..."

"Xu Xiao, I'll kill you!"

A surge of anger rushed to his head...

Cao Wushang was furious, his eyes blazing as he glared at Ye Chen, gritting his teeth as he spoke.

As soon as he finished speaking, he lunged at Ye Chen in a flash...

Spiritual energy surged around him, and a ball of spiritual energy condensed in his hand.

"Go to hell!"

Cao Wushang roared angrily and threw a punch...

Seeing this, Ye Chen stood still, neither dodging nor flinching, completely disregarding him. He merely raised his hand and waved it as Cao Wushang charged towards him...

A flash of inspiration, and a shield instantly materialized in front of him...

Lu Luo, leaning against the doorframe behind him, watched with trepidation. Although he knew Ye Chen was quite strong, seeing the menacing Cao Wushang, he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for him...

Why isn't Senior Brother making a move?

What is he waiting for?

That's way too dangerous...

"Bang!"

The next second, Cao Wushang punched the spiritual energy shield, producing a loud bang...

A wisp of light flashed across the spiritual energy shield, and it remained unharmed.

"this..."

Cao Wushang's arm went numb from the shock. Staring at the incredibly sturdy spiritual energy shield before him, he froze, his gaze fixed on the spot...

"How is that possible..."

He used almost 80 or 90% of his strength, yet he still couldn't break through a single defense.

He found it incredible...

Am I dreaming?

Ye Chen looked at Cao Wushang with a cold smile and mocked him disdainfully.

"Is that all the strength you have? Haven't you eaten?"

"You're all talk and no action... you're a total coward..."

"I don't think you're a coward, you're just a piece of trash..."

......

Cao Wushang: ? ? ?

Upon hearing this, Cao Wushang's gaze towards Ye Chen changed...

Who are you calling useless?

This is just too much...

"I'll fight you to the death..."

Cao Wushang roared angrily, completely erupting...

He stared at Ye Chen with almost murderous eyes, as if he wanted to tear him to pieces...
