Gate Of God Chapter 623 Arrogant, Chi Guyan's Sword

"Attack at once?!" The young lad's expression looked horrible. In fact, he had never looked so bad ever since he came to meet his master in the Black Moon Island.

His master had informed him earlier that he had to greet the special guest when it arrived.

And he had followed whatever he was instructed to do, as he had treated her with utmost respect. He did not even reject the idea of exchanging the Snow Mountain Spirit with the Thousand Years Fire Herb.

He was indeed doing his best to be a good host.

But...

A bottle of Snow Mountain Spirit and a favour to be traded for a bundle of Black Moon Island's Thousand Years Fire Herb, that sounded really ridiculous.

More importantly, she actually resorted to using violence, once the negotiation was off?

That was even more unbelievable.

"Alright, special guest, are we really doing this?" The young lad tried to hide his anger while appearing polite in front of her.

"Yes." The girl nodded her head, as her expression remained unchanged.

"If it's that case, pardon Ah Bu for being rude, I will use this Dual Blade to defend your five strokes. If you cannot defeat me in just five strokes, can you leave here on your own?" Ah Bu heard that and pulled out the Dual Blade, one black in colour and the other in white.

Five strokes.

That was how the young lad showed his way of hospitality.

It obviously meant that if the woman in front of him could take him down within five strokes, it would mean that her power was on par with that of his master's.

And for that, he would naturally retreat.

On the other hand, it would also mean that the lady shouldn't have overestimate her power if she ended up being unable to defeat him. Leaving here would be the best solution for her.

The young lad did not think much about whether the lady would choose to leave eventually.

After all, it wasn't his business anymore.

"Alright." The lady's crystal clear eyes scanned up and down around the young lad before nodding to consent.

"Ok then, special guest. You can make your move!" The young lad made a cross with the Dual Blade in front of his chest after as she agreed. There were two rays of black and white light emitting from the blade at the same time.

Although the lady in front of him was only 17 years old.

He did not look down on her at all. In fact, he treated her with caution.

Afterall...

The guests coming to Black Moon Island were of no average status.

Ah Bu's face was filled with dignity.

His eyes opened widely with ferocity as the dark horizon suddenly brightened up.

Or, it was not that the horizon had brightened up. Rather, it was the sight in front of him that had brightened up.

s.h.i.+mmering rays of brilliance surrounded the girl as she charged towards him instantly, not providing any hints before.

It was a direct strike.

But it was for this direct strike that caused Ah Bu to feel strange and different. It was not about the pressure of the strike, but it contained an indescribable feeling.

It certainly couldn't be described purely by words.

Ah Bu attempted to dodge even though he had prepared to defend the strike forcefully. But he thought otherwise when he saw the strike from her.

But he had already been attacked.

He was not sure if it was due to the fact that his body's motions had been locked, or that the strike was just too swift for him to leave him time to react and move away.

In any case, the strike had already landed on his chest.

It went around the Dual Blade in front of his chest, between the blades and into his chest.

Ah Bu felt a gust of horrific strength exiting her pale palms momentarily. The force entered his chest, and went straight into his internal pulses and veins.

"Peng!" A sound began ringing beside Ah Bu's ears.

Then, his bodily motions completely went out of control as his feet was lifted off the ground. His body flew up backwards into the air.

It wasn't far, as the distance was only about 10 feet.

"Boom!"

Ah Bu's legs softened immediately and he kneeled on the floor uncontrollably.

Beats of sweat came trickling down from his forehead, and there was disbelief in his eyes. Because the lady did not seem to be as powerful as his master physically.

But yet he could not handle the one strike from her.

How could that happen?

Ah Bu did not understand the weird situation that he was in just now. Why did he suddenly lose all his defensive awareness momentarily?

It almost felt like a sudden sneak attack from behind, without any prior preparation.

But he obviously did prepare himself for this, as he was as vigilant as ever, and did not let his guard down even for a moment.

But reality was that the lady had still struck him in the chest.

"Ding Dang!" The Black and White Dual Blade dropped on the floor, emitting a light crisp sound.

He was flung black for a fairly short distance, and it was obvious that she did not use her full strength. In fact, it even seemed as though she was showing mercy.

Showing mercy?

Defeated in one stoke!

Impossible.

Even his master was incapable of this.

How did that happen?

Ah Bu's eyes were bright red with bulging veins. He fixated his vision on the lady, and her pink dress was indeed outstanding.

"You.... You're the one from the Heaven Dao Pavilion..." A name flashed across his mind. While this person rarely appeared in public, but in terms of fame, she definitely did not lose to any in the Sanctuary.

This person became popular four years ago.

She was only thirteen years old at that time, with average manners. It can even be said, from certain perspectives, that it was forbidden for her to step into the Sanctuary.

But, she did, and she went into the Heavenly Dao Pavilion.

She was even invited personally by the Pavilion Leader into the Pavilion.

It was certainly against the rule in the Heavenly Dao Pavilion, but n.o.body dared to rebuke to any of these. Furthermore, all the strong fighters in the Heavenly Dao Pavilion were summoned to gather for a celebration, which lasted three days.

Since then, this name had spread around in the Sanctuary.

"My name is Chi Guyan." She slowly withdrew her palm, her bright eyes looking at Ah Bu silently but her voice sounding calm and peaceful.

Ah Bu's mouth moved as he attempted to say something. But nothing came out from it, as his eyelids felt extremely heavy, to an extent that he could not support them.

The light in front of him gradually turned into darkness.

Obviously this darkness was not referring to the darkness in the night sky.

"Dong!" Ah Bu's body fell on the ground. Initially he was still looking as though he was unwilling to give up, but that expression had totally disappeared now.

Because he had heard the words from the lady.

"My name is Chi Guyan."

Chi Guyan!

A person who has never shown her face in the Sanctuary, but yet was called the "Pride of the Heavens" among the strong warriors. She was mysterious, arrogant and extraordinary.

More importantly, she was also the first bloodline in the Xuan Heavenly Dao Body.

"KACHA!" A soft sound could be heard.

It was the sound of footsteps walking on the sand, and just at that moment, a figure appeared from behind the black stone door on the right.

His eyes were slightly raised, and his features were normal.

His white long hair draped on his shoulders.

A wide black coat was wrapped around the figure, and he looked slim, and even a bit weak. But when a faint light began emitting from his forehead...

It was evident that the man had already entered the Sagely State.

"It has already grown so much in just a short 4 years of time? Old master, that is quite slow!" The old man looked at the black young lad lying on the floor, and looked at Chi Guyan still standing on the same place. The slightly closed eyes began opening up slowly.

They were a pair of black and white eyes.

They looked dubious and strange at the same time, just like two ordinary material blending in together.

"Chi Guyan, greetings to you, senior!" Chi Guyan saw the old man with his black coat, and bowed politely.

"One bottle of snow white mountain ice, in exchange for the five pounds of Thousand Years Fire Herb." The old man began speaking after Chi Guyan had finished her greetings.

"Thank you Master, but I need a strain of it!" Chi Guyan corrected him.

"Okay, even if you're Chi Guyan, but I have my own rules to serve in the Black Moon Island. Five pounds is the limit and I did as a favour to your master!" The old man frowned as his tone changed.

"I couldn't thank you enough, master, but I begged you to give me the amount I asked for. I will try to return this favour, whatever it costs me to!" Chi Guyan said in a determined voice.

"Can you give me a reason then?" The old man asked coldly.

"To save someone." Chi Guyan answered in a calm manner.

"Save someone? If it's for saving someone, then a pound of the Thousand Years Fire Herb would be enough. Here I am, giving you a generous load five pounds of them to save someone!" The old man spoke while giving her a weird look.

"No, that person need one sprint of it." Chi Guyan shook her head.

"Is it a dead person?" The old man continued.

"No." Chi Guyan denied again.

"Is he your master?"

"No."

"Is this person important to you?"

"Yes."

"Are you sure that you'll be able to save him using a bunch of Thousand Years Fire Herb?"

"Not sure."

"You... You're not sure, and you came all the way to get those from me?" The old man had a change in his expression, as anger started to show out.

"Yes, I would like to give it a try." Chi Guyan nodded her head.

"Try? Hahaha, what a good try!" The old man laughed out loud as he stared at Chi Guyan intently. He let out a loud sigh shortly after, "Looks like…...This battle is inevitable today!"

"Please guide me, master!" Chi Guyan replied almost instantly.

"How pleasant of you to ask me to guide you!" The old man answered as soon as she finished speaking.

At this moment, the two stoned doors at the back slowly creaked open. Two figures walked out of the doors, both with white long hair and wearing a similar coat.

Of course they did not look the same as the old man.

Three Sages of the Black Moon Island.

Approaching.

"Chi Guyan, you're going to fight three of us at the same time, have you really considered this properly?" The old man in the middle, with a black moon shape tattooed on his chest, slowly opened his mouth.

"Hmm." Chi Guyan nodded her head, without much hesitation.

"Brother, against our junior, are we really going together?" The old man standing on the right had a tinge of doubt.

"Yes." The middle one nodded his head.

"Understood." The one standing on the left stopped talking as he wiped away the doubtful look on his face.

While the older brother did not give him any reasons for his answer, he understood that his brother never had made any wrong judgment before.

Four years ago, the Heavenly Dao Pavilion held a grand celebration.

He did not follow his brother to the Heavenly Dao Pavilion at that time, which also meant that he had never seen Chi Guyan in real life.

But he knew that Chi Guyan had entered Heavenly Dao Pavilion four years ago.

Four years...

A short period of only four years?

She was only in a Heavenly Reflection State mirror four years ago?

The old man at the left observed Chi Guyan, scanning up and down as he paused at her forehead. There was no light in between her forehead.

That made him felt relieved.

But very quickly, he felt uptight again. As he knew that once the light around Chi Guyan brightened up around her, it would s.h.i.+mmer bright like stars.

"So…. This is it!" The old man standing at the right seemed to have figured out everything that was happening, once the light began s.h.i.+ning around Chi Guyan.

Chi Guyan remained silent as she flipped her hand. At the same time, a sword appeared on her hand.

It was a very average looking sword.

The long sword looked nothing threatening from the outside. It was made out of red wood, but it was smooth with no scratches on it.

The sword had a simple body, but its blade was sharp.

It can be seen that the blade was sharp and sleek, but not merely that.

The reality was that the sword looked no different from the average weapon sold in a street side shop. But as soon as the sword appeared on her hand, the three men had a drastic change on their faces.

That was not because the sword had a story behind it, but because of the fact that it resembled an average looking weapon.

Hence, it also signified that Chi Guyan had no intention on winning the battle through using a superior weapon.

A junior.

Fighting alone against three Sages.

She actually pulled out an ordinary long sword that could be found in any stall. That could be seen as an insult, but the thought did not cross the minds of the three old men.

As n.o.body would use their life as a bait to embarra.s.s themselves.

Then...

The only explanation would be that Chi Guyan had not been using the sword, but she pulled out an ordinary sword today.

The three old men gave each other a look as they exhibited their suspicion, making it seemed like they were over-reacting.

But they were just being extra cautious.

"Seniors, are you all prepared? Junior is attacking soon!" Chi Guyan stared at the three old men standing before her, as she slowly lifted up her sword, pointing it at the middle man.
