Chapter 983
Chu Kuangren, the Guqin Crown, and the others were gathered inside the Cloud Nine Insignia Manor, talking about Divine Dragon Island. “With the Dragon Bachelor’s death, I believe they won’t let this
A warship was slowly cruising towards Hundred Academy.
Further away, several figures were chasing the warship in the void. They all had golden armors on and mantles with a three-legged golden crow icon on them.
They were the Golden Crow Guardians from the Honorable Yokai Hall.
“Chu Kuangren is on that ship?”
“Yes, if our information serves us right, he is on it. His Excellency wants him back.”
“He has the Sword Crown by his side to protect him, and fortunately, we’ve asked that person to lend us a hand. We must not fail this mission.”
The Golden Crow Guardians discussed their mission.
Soon, they arrived above the warship. They channeled and combined their Yokai qi and stopped the warship in mid-air.
A loud explosion sent the warship into trembles.
Xue Qinxin, Lan Yu, and the Sword Crown looked up to the Golden Crow Guardians. A slight surprise appeared in the Sword Crown’s eyes. “Oh, the Golden Crow Guardians?”
‘Are they here for the Azure Phoenix?’ the Sword Crown thought.
“Sword Crown… If you are here, it means Chu Kuangren is here. The Yokai Lord has asked for Brother Chu’s presence at the Yokai Hall,” one of the Golden Crow Guardians said.
“What if I say no?”
A calm voice came from inside the warship. It was Chu Kuangren.
“Brother Chu, please do not put us in a difficult position.” The Golden Crow Guardian furrowed his brows.
“Oh? What you mean is if I say no, you guys are going to take me away by force, am I right?”

“Sigh. Sword Crown, see them off please.”
Chu Kuangren chuckled. He had no intention to visit the Yokai Hall now. Maybe in the future, but definitely not now. The Sword Crown shook his head helplessly. “Great, now you’ve offended the Honorable Yokai Hall as well. It’s safe to say you’ve offended the entire Yokai Tribe, Master.”
Both Divine Dragon Island and Sycamore Mountain were the home base for the two strongest Divine Beast Tribes. As for Honorable Yokai Hall, they were the largest organization among the Yokai Tribe, housing almost half of all the powerful Yokai elites. They alone were influential enough to command ninety percent of the other tribes.
The three forces combined would equal the entire Yokai Tribe of Planquiloon Immortal World, and now Chu Kuangren has offended every single one of them. It was as bad as offending the entire Yokai Tribe.
He did not ponder the question, though. Since he had decided to follow Chu Kuangren, he did not plan to go back on his promise. If that path led to darkness, so be it. Just when he was about to make a move, a tremendous saber intent exploded further away. The keen saber intent forced a serious look on the Sword Crown.
He quickly turned around and stared at the mountain peak further away.
On that mountain peak, a middle-aged man stood proud with a rigid look. The saber sheath at his waist was white, and it had gemstones embedded in it.
The man was standing on the mountain peak, but the clouds and wind around the mountain felt like they were forced to a pause by the terrifying saber intent.
It felt like he was the one and only man on earth, together with that saber of his. The Sword Crown had never looked so solemn before. “I did not expect you to be here, Saber Crown!”
It was the Saber Crown, the lord of Oceanic Sword Grave, one of the Seven Crowns.
He was the one who defeated the Sword Crown years ago. It was safe to say that after his victory against the Sword Crown, he began to act like the leader of the Seven Crowns.
“I heard you recovered and even followed an Immortal Progeny. I thought it was a joke at first, but now it seems like you have lowered yourself to such standards by following a mere Immortal Progeny. You are not worthy of bearing the title of the Seven Crown,” the Saber Crown said.
The saber at his waist buzzed, and terrifying saber intent tore the void apart.
“Hmph. If a despicable bastard like you can be one of the Seven Crowns, why can’t I?” the Sword Crown scoffed.
He might be wearing a smile on his face, but his gaze was as cold as ice.
The sword intent on him overflowed, clashing with the saber intent that filled every inch of the realm. Even the void shook.
It felt like the sword and saber intent had materialized and fought for real in the void. Each clash felt like it could tear the void into pieces over and over again.
“Terrifying. So this is the strength of a peak-stage sword and saber?”
“Fortunately, the Yokai Lord told us to invite the Saber Crown here, or we wouldn’t be able to do anything to the Sword Crown.”
The Golden Crow Guardians were in awe of the display of sword and saber intents.
Back in the warship, Chu Kuangren also felt the presence of the Saber Crown.
“The battle between sword and saber? Hmph. Sword Crown, do what you have to do,” he said.
“Thank you, Master.” The Sword Crown nodded.
Then, his figure flashed towards the Saber Crown. Before their sword and saber clash, the sword and saber intents had caused the wind to rumble and waves to crash. It was as if they were leaving sword and saber slash marks in the void.
Kakroom!
The mountain peak of ten thousand meters under the Saber Crown’s feet suddenly crumbled due to the collision of sword and saber intents. Clouds of dust rumbled as the mountain fell apart.
“It seems like you have recovered. Is that the reason you’re following him?” the Saber Crown asked. He was referring to Chu Kuangren. The Sword Crown did not answer the question. Instead, a reminiscent look revealed in his eyes, and he asked with a complicated tone, “How is she doing?”
“Great. The matriarch of the Oceanic Sword Grave is only second to one and above a million. All the wealth in the world is for her to enjoy,” the Saber Crown said.
“That’s good.” The Sword Crown chuckled with a shake of his head.
Then, the sword intent around him rose sharply, and the Azure Lotus Immortal Sword flew out from his body, followed by green lotuses blooming in the void.
With his hand gripping the Immortal Sword, his sword intent skyrocketed. “I refuse to accept defeat from that last battle we had. Today, we will find out who the real winner
is!”
“I don’t mind defeating you again.” The Saber Crown’s eyes shone brightly.
Clunk! The saber was drawn, revealing a green glowing blade with a hilt shaped like a python’s mouth.
“Azure Python, one of the three famed sabers of Oceanic Sword Grave. This saber is as ferocious as I remember,” the Sword Crown said with a smile.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe moment he said that, the two of them disappeared.
At the next moment, loud explosions sounded relentlessly like a fierce thunderstorm.
Once the sword and the saber collided, their Immortal’s Core transformed into respective qi and went rampant everywhere. Even the rumbling clouds were cut in half by the battle, drawing a large crack in the sky that extended for a million meters.
It really felt like the sky was cut in half.
“Gulp!”

Xue Qinxin gulped nervously. Her mother was one of the Seven Crowns, but she had never seen such destructive powers before.
It was her first time seeing a battle of such caliber.
“Is this what a battle between top-notch Immortals looks like?” Xue Qinxin mumbled.
The battle between the Sword Crown and Saber Crown was out of the world. However, the Golden Crow Guardians were not here as audiences. They looked down at the warship coldly.
“Brother Chu, if you’re not willing to cooperate, please forgive our manners.”
With that. the Golden Crow Guardians made their moves.
Even the weakest among them possessed the strength level of a Pseudo Immortal. A single move ripped the defensive forcefield into pieces, and they went straight for Chu Kuangren.
“You guys really think you can do whatever you want!”
A bellow sounded.
Terrifying Emperor qi erupted from Chu Kuangren’s room and blasted the Golden Crow Guardians away.
The weakest among them even exploded into a cloud of blood mist.
Screech!
The door opened, and Chu Kuangren, in his white robes, came out slowly. As he raised his hand, terrifying Emperor qi, infused with his source energies, transformed into a golden palm and grabbed the few Golden Crow Guardians. He clenched his fist, and an explosion erupted! The Golden Crow Guardians were all killed.
