"Impudent brat!" Xuande shouted when the discordant voice rang out.
As the ancestor of the Xuan family, his aura was terrifying. The members of the Xuan family began to panic.
"Lord Xuan De, don't get angry.
Let me talk to him, "Yao Yue comforted before his gaze landed on a robust middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man was the one who had spoken earlier. His name was Xuan Wei, and he was two generations older than Xuan Wanjun.
"What do you have to say?" Yao Yue asked Xuan Wei.
"My Xuan family's ancestral rule is to wait for a new master with nine star battle runes. You have nine star battle runes, but you are too young. How can you lead the Xuan family to the peak?" Xuan Wei shouted.
Xuan Wei's strength was not simple. He already had the strength of a Great Sage. Although he was lacking in the Xuan family's rules, he was the most outstanding cultivator of the Xuan family's younger generations.
"Then what do you think makes me qualified to lead the Xuan family?" Yao Yue asked.
"My Xuan family's rules are our rules, so I naturally won't use that to pressure you. Only if you can defeat me will I be convinced. Only then will the rest of the Xuan family have confidence in you.
Otherwise, even if the ancestor blames me, I won't accept it, "Xuan Wei said firmly.
The other members of the Xuan family nodded inwardly when they heard that. They felt that Xuan Wei's words were reasonable.
Xuan De shouted unhappily, "Xuan Wei, you think you're all grown up? Take him away and punish him according to the family rules!"
"Lord Xuan De, wait!"
Yao Yue immediately stopped him. "I feel that Xuan Wei is right. If I don't show some actual strength today, I'm afraid I won't be able to convince the others.
I accept Xuan Wei's challenge! "
Indeed, Yao Yue felt that it was a little unrealistic to think that he had subdued the Xuan family so easily.
Now that someone had come to challenge him, he could show off his potential and prove that he wasn't someone who only looked impressive.
"Master, why do you have to do this?
Let this old man teach this brat a lesson! "Xuande said.
Yao Yue waved her hand and said, "No, Lord Xuande. Xuan Wei is right. If I don't have any real talent, everyone will only be convinced on the surface. You don't have to blame Xuan Wei."
"Master, you're a wise man!" Xuande said and did not force the issue.
It was obvious that he wanted to see Yao Yue's true strength!
He knew that Yao Yue was only a Middle-level Saint. However, as his new master, if he did not even have the ability to fight someone of a higher level, then he would be a little too weak!
Yao Yue had accepted Xuan Wei's challenge. They were going to battle on the Northern Ice Sea!
The disciples of the Xuan family naturally did not want to miss this battle. They all excitedly gathered to watch!
Xuan Wanjun said worriedly, "Master Wei is a Great Sage. I don't know if master is a match for him!"
"Don't worry about that. Just as the pavilion master said, if he doesn't have any real talent, he won't be able to lead the Xuan family. I believe that he will definitely win!" Zhuge Tianji said.
Yao Yue and Xuan Wei flew to the surface of the sea at the same time. They hovered in the air as waves of energy surged out from them.
"Your cultivation level is lower than mine. If you can withstand ten moves from me, I'll consider it a pass!"
Xuan Wei had a good impression of Yao Yue since Yao Yue dared to accept the challenge. Thus, he relaxed the conditions.
"No need. Go all out. I'll defeat you within ten moves. If I can't defeat you, I, Yao Yue, will give up on being your master!" Yao Yue said seriously.
The moment Yao Yue said that, the disciples of the Xuan family gasped.
"The new master is really arrogant. I wonder if his strength is as good as his mouth!"
"Uncle Wei is the strongest person in our generation. He's already a Great Sage. Can the new master really defeat Uncle Wei within ten moves?
That's not very likely! "
"Let's wait and see. I have a feeling that he might have some special ability. That nine-star battle rune gives me a very profound feeling. I've heard that those with battle runes possess extraordinary abilities!"
"Unless he becomes a god, he won't be a match for Brother Wei!"
…
Xuan Wei looked at Yao Yue and said solemnly, "You need to think this through!"
The calmer Yao Yue was, the more Xuan Wei felt that Yao Yue might have an extraordinary side to him!
"I've thought it through. Are you ready?
I'm going to attack! "Yao Yue said.
"Come!" Xuan Wei beckoned with his hand.
As soon as he said that, Yao Yue vanished from where he stood and reappeared behind Xuan Wei.
As expected of a Great Sage, Xuan Wei immediately sensed Yao Yue's movements. Without any hesitation, he released the aura of a Great Sage in an attempt to force Yao Yue back.
However, he underestimated Yao Yue's strength. Yao Yue's fist landed on him, shattering his defensive barrier.
Bang!
Xuan Wei's body was smashed into the water, creating countless splashes.
Yao Yue did not continue his attack. Instead, he calmly waited for Xuan Wei to emerge from the water.
His move was only to gain the upper hand by a show of strength. The Xuan family members were in an uproar.
Clearly, they did not expect Yao Yue to be so strong that he could send Xuan Wei into the water as soon as he attacked.
Xuan Wei did not immediately rush out of the water. Instead, an extremely large whirlpool formed in the water. A powerful suction force enveloped Yao Yue.
It was like an eye in the water, swallowing everything with a terrifying force.
"The Great Sage is indeed extraordinary!"
Yao Yue thought to himself. He quickly retreated and formed a continuous palm strike with his palms. Similarly, a whirlpool of energy appeared in front of his palms.
This whirlpool of energy was in the opposite direction of the whirlpool of the eye in the water.
When Xuan De saw the energy that Yao Yue had summoned, he raised his eyebrows and thought to himself, "The True Essence of Water!"
Yao Yue's palms spun faster and faster. The whirlpool of energy became stronger and stronger. It was as though a tsunami had formed around him. Countless waves gathered around him.
"Go!"
After retreating for a while, Yao Yue felt that the energy in his palms was sufficient. He shouted and pushed the energy forward.
Rumble!
In the blink of an eye, the two forces of water collided. Immediately, sparkling and translucent water splashed all over the place. It was an exceptionally beautiful sight!
At the same time, Xuan Wei charged out from an unexpected corner and sent a palm strike at Yao Yue's back.
As he attacked, the image of a black tortoise appeared. It looked extremely mighty.
As though he had eyes on the back of his head, Yao Yue lowered his body and dodged Xuan Wei's sneak attack. Then, he leaped into the air and kicked out a series of afterimages.
Residual Wind Kick!
Yao Yue's cultivation level was lower than Xuan Wei's, but his combat prowess was not inferior to Xuan Wei's at all.
The Leg Aura and the Palm Aura intertwined with each other again and again, creating a series of explosive sounds!
Xuan Wei could also sense that Yao Yue's combat prowess was extraordinary. He thought to himself, Looks like he's quite strong. However, it's impossible for him to defeat me in ten moves.
Xuan Wei increased the intensity of his attacks. The tortoise image grew stronger and stronger. It was as though a mountain was crashing down on Yao Yue. Wave after wave of water crashed down on Yao Yue.
Yao Yue exchanged six to seven moves with Xuan Wei, but they were still evenly matched.
The others felt that it was almost impossible for Yao Yue to defeat Xuan Wei in ten moves.
"Is that all you've got?
Don't make me underestimate you! "Xuan Wei shouted at Yao Yue.
"Yes, that's all I've got. However, it's enough to defeat you. Watch carefully!" Yao Yue smiled faintly. His aura suddenly changed.
His demon core and primary sea's energy surged at the same time, causing his combat prowess to skyrocket.
Yao Yue was capable of fighting a peak Great Sage. Although he had been severely injured, his combat prowess was definitely comparable to a mid-late stage Great Sage.
Xuan Wei sensed the increase in Yao Yue's strength. He did not waste any more time and charged at Yao Yue again. He wanted to gain the initiative by striking first.
His domineering palm strike was like a tidal wave crashing down from the sky. Its power was shocking to the extreme.
The power of this strike was definitely comparable to a peak Great Sage. Ordinary Great Sage would not be able to withstand it.
Yao Yue met the attack head-on without dodging. His palm strikes changed constantly. First, a soft force appeared, and it actually pulled Xuan Wei's strength back along with his rhythm.
"You want to borrow strength to fight strength? Impossible!" Xuan Wei could understand what Yao Yue was trying to do. After he shouted, he wanted to change his move to kill!
However, Yao Yue did not give him the chance to do so. He met the attack head-on and retreated. Then, he leaned forward again. His palms overlapped, and the borrowed strength stacked together with the strength he sent out.
Bang!
Xuan Wei did not expect Yao Yue's attack to suddenly become so fast. It was too late for him to retreat. He could only passively defend himself against Yao Yue's counterattack.
This time, he was directly sent flying. He felt the blood in his body churning non-stop. He almost suffered internal injuries.
"Lose!" Yao Yue shouted. His body moved like the wind and charged at Xuan Wei.
High Void Phoenix Extreme Speed!
Yao Yue turned into a sky full of afterimages that surrounded Xuan Wei. His palm strikes turned into fist strikes, and his fists enveloped Xuan Wei.
Xuan Wei's defense was like an empty shell. Yao Yue's tyrannical strength broke through it, and the fist strikes wreaked havoc on Xuan Wei's body.
Xuan Wei was at a loss for what to do from this storm of attacks!
"Ah! I won't lose! Get lost!"
Xuan Wei was unwilling to lose. He unleashed all his strength in an attempt to force Yao Yue away.
However, he suddenly felt a chill at the back of his head. The feeling of death chilled him from head to toe.
Yao Yue also retreated at this time and didn't attack Xuan Wei!
Yao Yue looked at Xuan Wei quietly without saying anything.
The other Xuan clan disciples were also silent. They did not know if the battle was over or not.
After a long time, Xuan Wei sighed and said, "I've lost."
He then bowed to Yao Yue and said, "Xuan Wei greets master."
