Chapter 26: Taking Control of the Situation, and He Was the Clown!
Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Xie Yixuan hesitated. He looked at Han Yue and then at Ye Xuan. Finally, he gritted his teeth and said, "Alright! I promise you."
"You better not go back on your word."
Ye Xuan gave him a meaningful look. He could use Xie Yixuan to practice and see the effect of his enlightenment.
"You're the one who should be regretting it!"
The moment he finished speaking, Xie Yixuan rushed forward like an arrow.
The two shadows quickly entangled with each other. This time, Ye Xuan had no intention of hiding.
The elders were slightly shocked and couldn't help but sigh. "So fast!"
They almost couldn't see how the two of them made their moves. They could only see afterimages passing through the air, and they could vaguely see their shadows.
What surprised everyone was Ye Xuan. After all, everyone knew Xie Yixuan's strength. What surprised them was that Ye Xuan could actually keep up. His aura was completely different from when he sparred with the Sect Master.
At this moment, Ye Xuan seemed to have changed into a different person. If he was originally a gentle breeze, he was now like a thunderbolt that swept through the world.
"Could it be that Elder Ye was hiding his strength earlier?"
When Han Yue heard this, she couldn't help but say, "It's not hiding. It's sudden enlightenment."
Everyone's mouth could almost fit an egg. They stuttered, "S-sect Master, you must be joking."
If he could gain enlightenment so easily, it would be too simple.
Han Yue didn't look like she was joking. She said calmly, "Yes or no, you will know when you see it."
At this moment, Xie Yixuan, who was on the stage, felt great pressure. He immediately put away his contempt and focused his attention. Seeing that he had increased his speed and left Ye Xuan behind, he could not help but sigh in relief.
His lightning-like speed made the audience gasp in admiration. "I knew Elder Xie wouldn't lose. That was just a warm-up."
However, Xie Yixuan, who was on the stage, was not as relaxed as everyone thought. Ye Xuan followed him like a shadow that he could not get rid of.
He gritted his teeth and gathered all the spiritual power in his body. It seemed like he had the upper hand.
However, was this the truth?
In less than half an hour, the distance between the two of them had narrowed. Xie Yixuan was sweating profusely, while Ye Xuan was at ease. Those who didn't know would think that he was taking a walk.
The crowd gradually realized that something was wrong. The Eighth Elder seemed to have noticed something and shouted in surprise,
"Did you all notice that the place where Elder Ye is staying is exactly the same as Elder Xie's?"
After his reminder, the sharp-eyed crowd realized that the place where Ye Xuan landed was exactly the same as Xie Yixuan's. In fact, it even coincided perfectly!
The expression on his face could even be said to be at ease as if it was effortless to do this. And he could skip Xie Yixuan at any time if he wanted to.
This result was not beyond Han Yue's expectations. It seemed that she had already known it.
"Then according to that, doesn't that mean that Elder Ye's body technique has already reached the point of perfection? As long as he wants to, he can at any time..."
The Third Elder looked at the elder who had spoken and sternly shouted, "What nonsense are you saying?"
Even though he did not finish his sentence, everyone understood what he meant, including Xie Yixuan.
Hearing the crowd's discussion, Xie Yixuan was shocked beyond words. It was at this moment of distraction that a man's voice suddenly sounded, "Why did you stop?"
It was just a simple sentence, but it was like a heavy hammer that hit Xie Yixuan hard. He turned around and saw Ye Xuan's face close to him. The playful smile on his lips pierced his heart again.
Xie Yixuan also noticed Ye Xuan's movements. He observed carefully. If it was a coincidence for the first time, it could not be a coincidence every time. He knew that it was almost impossible to achieve this.
The control of this match had been in Ye Xuan's hands from the beginning to the end. To think that Xie Yixuan had been so proud to think that he would be able to shake Ye Xuan off.
In the end, he was the clown.
It was like Ye Xuan was playing a game of cat and mouse. No matter how Xie Yixuan ran, he could not escape from Ye Xuan's grasp.
"Looks like there's no suspense in this match."
"I thought it would be a one-sided fight. After all, Elder Ye is only at Human Realm Rank 2. I didn't expect that the opponent would be completely different."
"You're telling me this is Human Realm Rank 2? People would even believe it if you said Heaven Realm."
The scene in front of them subverted everyone's worldview.
A Human Realm Rank 2 warrior could actually do this, even leaving Xie Yixuan, who was a Heaven Realm warrior, with no way out. If they didn't see it with their own eyes, they wouldn't believe it.
The comments and surprised looks from the people around him made Xie Yixuan feel as if there was a dagger on his back, and his steps felt like they weighed a thousand pounds.
"I've lost."
Xie Yixuan looked dejected. No matter how unbelievable he felt, he could not change the fact that he had been defeated. Instead of continuing to embarrass himself, he might as well admit defeat. At least he could save his reputation this way, even though he didn't have much reputation left.
"I'll give you the mental cultivation later."
After saying this, Xie Yixuan left in a hurry. He did not care about everyone's reaction. He just wanted to escape from this place as soon as possible.
The scene instantly fell silent.
Other than Han Yue, no one had thought that the final winner would really be Ye Xuan, much less Xie Yixuan, who would admit defeat so easily.
It was only after Ye Xuan had walked far away that they reacted.
"Elder Ye actually won!"
"Ever since Elder Ye took out so many things, I don't find it strange that he beat Elder Xie with his Human Realm Rank 2 cultivation."
"I have the same feeling."
Ye Xuan still didn't know how much shock he had brought to everyone, so much so that many elders and disciples were talking about it with great interest and discussing it.
