Then, the man casually swung his long sword.
The next moment, a tremendous buzzing sound shook the entire world!
A massive sword beam appeared out of thin air, tearing the surrounding space into chaos.
The sword energy, once unleashed, spanned ten thousand miles! It cleaved through the nine heavens.
Along the way, a deep sword mark was left on every mountain and river!
After that sword energy passed, the nine men in black vanished into thin air as if they had never existed.
After unleashing this sword strike, the ethereal figure gradually vanished, just as he had arrived.
Even long after the man disappeared, everyone who witnessed it was still immersed in the shock of that sword strike.
In the guest residence of the Northern Cold Prince
Sword God Li Chungang (bedg) stared at the Truman System without blinking or moving for some time.
Even he was deeply shocked by the sword strike unleashed by the person who appeared from the jade tablet.
Compared to this sword strike, even his own "Opening the Heavenly Gate" sword strike was somewhat incomparable.
However, it was this very sword strike that gave Li Chungang a sudden realization.
Just as surprised as Li Chungang was Xiong Ba of the World Society.
Xiong Ba originally thought that this time, with Xu Xiao facing such a crisis, he would surely see Ye Fan step in.
In this way, perhaps we can get a rough idea of Ye Fan's strength.
Unexpectedly, Ye Fan did not even have to make a move. A jade token given to Xu Xiao by Ye Fan was enough to resolve the crisis!
Is this... the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm?
Xiong Ba was extremely shocked. At the same time, he was also wondering which force dared to provoke such a terrifying Ye Fan.
Meanwhile.
Inside the Liyang Imperial Palace.
At this moment, Zhao Li was like a duck whose neck had been suddenly cut off.
It stretched its neck and opened its big mouth, but could only make coughing sounds.
As the nine men in black approached Xu Xiao, Zhao Li, who had already assumed Xu Xiao was dead and was beginning to celebrate wildly, was caught off guard.
But I never expected such a change to happen.
Although Zhao Li didn't understand martial arts, the damage caused by that sword strike was enough for him to truly feel its terror.
And this was just one of the treasures Ye Fan bestowed upon Xu Xiao.
"This...this Ye Fan, could he really be a celestial being from heaven?"
Slumped dejectedly to the ground, Zhao Li swallowed hard.
Zhang Julu, standing beside him, showed no change on the surface, but in reality, his inner shock was no less than Zhao Li's.
Cold sweat beaded on Zhang Julu's forehead; Ye Fan had still made his move.
Although he didn't carry out the assassination himself, it was clear that the attempt to kill Xu Xiao had completely failed.
It could even be said that with the jade tablet bestowed by Ye Fan, there would be no one in the world capable of assassinating Xu Xiao from now on.
Zhang Julu's eyes were filled with surprise and uncertainty. Xu Xiao's crisis was over, but what should the Li Yang Dynasty do next?
At the same time, the banished immortal who appeared in the jade tablet saved Xu Xiao.
With tears welling up in his eyes, Xu Weixiong also breathed a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Xu Weixiong was different from most people; he was only slightly shocked by the power of the banished immortal that appeared in the jade tablet.
More than anything, she felt gratitude towards Ye Fan and a growing affection for him.
Everything Ye Fan showed was increasingly attracting Xu Weixiong.
Prince Bei Han shared similar thoughts.
At this moment, the Crown Prince of Beihan was still traveling the last few miles of the six thousand miles with Jian Jiuhuang.
Even so, he still kept a close eye on the various rumors surrounding Ye Fan.
Even recently, when her father, Xu Xiao, went to Wangjian Mountain to propose marriage.
The Prince of Bei Han was also very excited that Ye Fan was about to become his brother-in-law.
In summary, although this prince of Beihan had never met Ye Fan, he admired Ye Fan immensely.
Now, seeing his father Xu Xiao rescued because of the token given by Ye Fan, the Prince of Bei Han was deeply moved.
Perhaps, after these three years of training, I should go and meet this martial arts master!
This thought lingered in the mind of the Prince of Beihan.
At this moment, Xu Xiao felt the exhilaration of being reborn.
However, being present at the scene, he did not see things as clearly as the various forces watching from the sidelines.
Under the shadow of death, he was unable to see clearly what had happened.
However, the only thing Xu Xiao knew for sure was that it was the jade token given to him by Ye Fan that saved him.
He removed his armor and took out the palm-sized jade pendant from the cloth pocket of his undergarment.
Xu Xiao kissed her deeply, as if she were kissing her dearest lover.
Then, Xu Xiao burst into laughter.
He knew that his decision was absolutely correct!
Bringing Bei Han to join Ye Fan's side will be the best decision he ever made!
At this moment, the people of the world have gradually begun to recover from the terrifying power displayed by that immortal.
As the shock subsided, doubts arose in the minds of most people from various factions across the land.
Which faction, knowing that Xu Xiao had already led Bei Han to join Ye Fan, still sent people to assassinate Xu Xiao?
To so blatantly test Ye Fan, the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm, isn't that just asking for trouble?
Chapter 111 Xu Xiao is assassinated, Ye Fan is furious, and the world trembles!
The news of the assassination attempt by Xu Xiao, the King of Northern Cold, is causing a great uproar throughout the land, throwing both the martial arts world and the imperial court into a state of panic!
Who is Xu Xiao, the King of Northern Cold? He is a martial saint who just led the Northern Cold and its iron cavalry to surrender to the mortal realm!
The Northern Cold King has just pledged allegiance to the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm, and yet he's already being assassinated? What force is so audacious as to dare to provoke such a powerful figure...?
Questions arose in everyone's minds, drawing everyone's attention. They wanted to know what had happened.
However, they received absolutely no news or clues about the assassins, as if they had vanished into thin air, leaving countless people scratching their heads in frustration…
...............
At this moment, Xiong Ba of the World Society was like an ant on a hot pan, pacing back and forth, feeling extremely depressed...
Bu Jingyun and Nie Feng both looked extremely distressed...
"Master, what exactly is going on in the Northern Cold?" Nie Feng frowned as he looked at Xiong Ba.
Looking at Xiong Ba's anxious expression, Bu Jingyun smiled wryly and said, "Master, you wouldn't send someone to assassinate the Northern Cold King, would you?"
Nie Feng immediately rebuked, "Jingyun, stop talking nonsense! How could your master do such a despicable thing!"
Upon hearing Nie Feng reprimand him, Bu Jingyun immediately showed a wronged expression.
“But we climbed Wangjian Mountain a while ago, and our goal back then was…” Bu Jingyun muttered to himself again…
Upon hearing that Bu Jingyun actually doubted the World Society, Nie Feng immediately roared, "Insolence! Bu Jingyun, you are becoming more and more insolent!"
"Hmph!" Bu Jingyun snorted coldly and remained silent.
At this moment, Xiong Ba waved his hand and said with a gloomy face, "Even Jing Yun suspects that Master did it? Then do you think the King of Bei Han will suspect us? If so, how should we deal with it!"
As soon as Xiong Ba finished speaking, both Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun's expressions changed drastically.
If the Northern Cold King truly believes this was the work of the World Alliance, then they are in deep trouble…
Xu Xiao, the King of Northern Cold, is even stronger than before. Now, with the Martial Saint of the Mortal Realm as his backer, there are probably few in the world who would dare to provoke him. In that case, the World Society will surely be doomed.
Thinking of this, the three of them broke out in a cold sweat, and they could see panic in each other's eyes!
"Master, what should we do next? What should we do if the Northern Cold King really comes knocking on our door?" Nie Feng said anxiously.
Xiong Ba shook his head and said, "Don't panic. After all, we didn't do this. We must tell the Northern Cold King that we didn't do it, otherwise, the Northern Cold King will definitely point the finger at the World Society."
"Master is wise," Nie Feng said with a sigh of relief upon hearing this.
“Yes, let’s go, prepare the gifts, and we’ll go see the King of Northern Cold in person!” Xiong Ba nodded and said.
The three of them then left the room to head to the Northern Cold King's Mansion...
…………
At this moment, Yuan Qingshan, the sect leader of the Northern Mang Moral Sect, was filled with astonishment. Xu Xiao, the Northern Cold King, had been assassinated, but the Jade Pendant Immortal had killed all the assassins with a single move…
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Yuan Qingshan would never have believed that someone in the world could be so powerful, especially since this was a jade pendant left behind by a martial saint...
