Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation Chapter 1667

Chapter 1667 (Raw 1679): Ways of the World
Inside the captain's quarters, the white-bearded old man who was watching felt startled.
Xiao Chen's earlier knifehand strike might have been casual, but the force in that saber light and the saber intent in it were ridiculously strong.
Otherwise, it would not have instantly knocked Bai Feng into the air.
More importantly, the white-bearded old man could tell that Xiao Chen had still held back and had not used his full power.
"Where did this fellow come from?" The white-bearded old man started muttering to himself, feeling that he might have thought wrong earlier.
---
Back on the deck, Leng Yuan, who was a bladesman as well, looked at Xiao Chen with very different eyes. He found this turn of events incredible, suffering a great shock. As a bladesman himself, he could feel even more clearly the might of Xiao Chen's knifehand strike.
"Whoosh!"
Just at this moment, Bai Feng leaped out of the water and landed on the surface of the sea. His entire body was drenched and his face pale. He coughed a few times, clearly finding this hard to bear.
"Senior Brother Bai!"
"Senior Brother Bai, are you alright?"
A group of people rushed over and asked out of concern. No matter how they looked at it, Bai Feng's face seemed unsightly.
Bai Feng ignored the others. He strode forward and looked at Xiao Chen, his eyes shining with an unwillingness to accept this. "I told you to draw your saber. What do you mean by using a knifehand? Are you looking down on me, Bai Feng?"
As Bai Feng walked over step by step, he projected his aura and placed his right hand on his sword handle.
A Sword Domain quietly spread out, and Bai Feng radiated a sharp light from his body. His long hair and clothes flapped loudly. He became like an unparalleledly sharp sword.
"Oh no, Senior Brother Bai is angry!"
Feeling the Sword Domain that Bai Feng released and the murderous intent in his eyes, everyone took flight, not daring to interfere.
If the fight earlier was just an exchange, right now, Bai Feng truly intended to kill.
Bai Feng felt very wronged in his heart. He had not expected to be so easily sent flying by Xiao Chen's knifehand strike.
Originally, he had not believed that Xiao Chen would dare to attack, would dare to make a move on a peak Minor Primal Core swordsman.
Of course, Bai Feng had hoped for Xiao Chen to attack. That way, he could take the opportunity to teach Xiao Chen a lesson.
Hence, Bai Feng spoke in an extremely provocative manner earlier.
Who knew, right after Bai Feng spoke, he was sent flying, to his utter embarrassment.
If Bai Feng did not regain his face, he would not be able to mingle in the Purple Flame Sect in the future.
"Draw your saber. Weren't you very incredible earlier? You bastard!"
Bai Feng raised his aura to its peak, circulating all the Veritable Essence Energy in his body. He waited for Xiao Chen to make a move before he would strike with his sword.
Since Xiao Chen's expression did not change, he taunted him once more.
This time, he was prepared. He did not believe that he would fall at Xiao Chen's hands again.
"Senior Brother Bai, don't go overboard."
Yang Qing's face sank. She felt that Bai Feng was simply being excessive. A cold intent spread from her body as she shielded Xiao Chen.
---
Inside the captain's quarters, the white-bearded old man frowned upon seeing this scene.
He made some mental calculations. He could use this opportunity to see how strong Xiao Chen was. However, he did not expect to see Yang Qing block Bai Feng.
---
"Move aside. This has nothing to do with you!" Bai Feng shouted, "You are in my way. Be careful, or I will not let you off, either."
"Do you think that I'm afraid of you?"
Yang Qing smiled faintly. However, this smile was the polar opposite of her usual friendly smile. This smile inspired a chill, making others tremble.
Clearly, Yang Qing was angered by Bai Feng's words.
Everyone was slightly startled. Only now did they realize that Yang Qing had been hiding a strength that rivaled Bai Feng.
The group of old folks on the ship saw this wrangle but did not bother to come out and deal with it.
Xiao Chen was speechless. Unexpectedly, after Bai Feng got sent flying by his knifehand strike, Bai Feng still did not acknowledge the facts.
Bai Feng did not realize that Xiao Chen had already shown him mercy, believing that Xiao Chen had used his full power to clash with him.
Holding this train of thought, Bai Feng shouted coldly, "I told you to move aside, so you are seeking this yourself!" He did not show concern for anything else, venting all of his frustrations at Yang Qing.
The Sword Domain gathered at the tip of his sword. Immediately, that spot of sword light became as resplendent as a star, illuminating the entire place.
A scary might radiated from the tip of the sword. A strong wind blew, making many move back in fear of being blown into the air. They flew out of the ship to hover above the starry sea.
Seeing such a stance, these people were frightened. The two were going to fight to the death.
Yang Qing snorted coldly and spread her hands. A cold intent gathered and turned into frost that spread out from under her feet. The air seemed to fill with mist. Everyone felt a chill in their bodies.
Then, she pushed off the deck, and her figure flitted through the air, charging at that spot of sword light.
Xiao Chen's expression changed reflexively. What happened? How did these two end up starting a fight to the death?
If they really fight and one of them gets careless, someone might end up severely injured and possibly lose the chance to enter the Purple Flame Sect.
This development happened in the time it took for a spark to fly, so Xiao Chen did not have much time to think.
He executed the new Fish Dragon Art in the blink of an eye, moving like a phantom. The intense friction between his body and the air ignited the protective Veritable Essence Energy around his body, forming a thin layer of purple flames.
In an instant, despite moving later, Xiao Chen appeared in front of Yang Qing.
He glanced at that spot of sword light that was as resplendent as a star. Then, he did not hesitate to draw his Lunar Shadow Saber.
"Boom!"
Great Dao Energy spread out. In merely an instant, Xiao Chen smashed Bai Feng's Sword Domain.
A saber light flashed, and with a melodious 'clang,' the sword in Bai Feng's hand shattered.
Then, Bai Feng vomited blood as he held his chest and fell to one knee.
A swordsman's heart was connected to his sword. Although it was exaggerated to say that a swordsman died when their sword broke, it was normal for a swordsman to sustain injury when their sword broke.
This sudden change in the scene caused Yang Qing to cry out softly.
Xiao Chen's back faced Yang Qing, but her palm wind had already passed the point of no return. She could no longer control it nor withdraw it.
She could only do her best to draw back her Veritable Essence Energy to reduce the might of this palm strike.
However, she was too late. This palm strike would land on Xiao Chen in the blink of an eye. There was no way to reduce the might at all.
At this critical moment, Xiao Chen did not appear flustered. Instead, he stretched out his hand.
"Bang!"
Yang Qing's hand met Xiao Chen's hand. It felt like the force of her palm strike was flowing into a sea without kicking up any ripples.
Yang Qing was immediately startled. What a strong physique! This flow of Veritable Essence Energy is also very strange.
Could it be that Xiao Chen is hiding his strength as well?
Everything unfolded in the time it took for a spark to fly. Xiao Chen broke Bai Feng's sword with one saber strike. Then, without budging, he received Yang Qing's palm strike.
It all happened at nearly the same time, causing some confusion.
Who could have thought that Xiao Chen alone could easily resolve this dangerous situation, startling everyone?
"Bang! Bang! Bang!"
The many disciples hovering over the starry sea landed on the ship quickly. The sea's tenfold gravity was not that easy to bear.
Many people looked strangely at Xiao Chen, filled with confusion.
After that, a few kind disciples helped up the somewhat pitiful Bai Feng and checked on his injuries.
When they discovered that only Bai Feng's soul was injured, they relaxed. For such an injury, he just had to rest for a few days. As long as he did not get into a fight, he would recover.
"Young Master Xiao, you really hid yourself deeply. This little girl is in awe of you." Yang Qing withdrew her hand with a smile on her face.
Xiao Chen said calmly, "I did not hide anything on purpose, including my strength. It was just that no one asked me. I'm not a foolish person. Without true capability, why would I choose the Purple Flame Sect? You, on the other hand, are somewhat different."
Yang Qing's expression changed slightly; her smile turned embarrassed. She did not argue.
"You all had better straighten up. It is just a minor matter, yet you fought so brutally. Do you still want to enter the main sect?"
After the matter was over, the white-bearded old man "arrived late." He showed an angry expression as he lectured everyone. Then, he said with a cold countenance, "Xiao Chen, come with me."
Before everyone's complicated gaze, Xiao Chen followed boldly.
After Xiao Chen entered the room, the white-bearded old man's rage immediately vanished.
The white-bearded old man said, "Little Brother Xiao Chen, have a seat. Would you like tea or wine? I have them both here."
Xiao Chen found this funny. This old man's attitude changed really fast. The ways of the world were quite interesting.
"What do you have in mind? Senior, do be direct."
"Haha! Nothing much. I just want a casual chat with you. You can address me as Martial Uncle Liu. After all, you will be a Purple Flame Sect disciple soon," the white-bearded old man laughed.
Xiao Chen said, "I have not taken the test yet."
"Test? For what? With a word from me, there is no need for a test."
"However, I recall that Senior told me ten days ago that having confidence was a good thing, but aiming too high was not too good."
Elder Liu smiled in embarrassment and said, "Is that so? I'm old already, and my memory is not very good. Perhaps you heard wrong? It's settled. When we reach the main sect, you can directly enter with these branch elites. Just remember to say that this old man helped recommend you."
