Qin Chuan smiled as he watched Bei Chudao approach. He was too lazy to bother with Bei Chudao's earlier words; this kind of person didn't take him and his group seriously at all.
This was understandable, though. After all, this was the Bei Chu family. In their eyes, his group was nothing. While they could cause some trouble, they weren't enough to shake the Bei Chu family.
This was the consensus of everyone in the Bei Chu family.
However, they were also wary of his youth; youth was their capital. Therefore, they wanted to nip any potential threats in the bud.
This was also why they were targeting him. If it were just Palace Master Wu, they wouldn't care, because even if Palace Master Wu died of old age, he wouldn't have the ability to seek revenge.
The Bei Chu family's real target was Qin Chuan, so Bei Chudao attacked Qin Chuan directly.
Qin Chuan watched Bei Chudao approach and raised his strength to its peak, setting up his array formations, divine positions, and even demonic beasts.
Bei Chudao's strength was at least that of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor, while Qin Chuan's strength was that of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor of the main branch. Overall, the gap between them was still significant.
However, Qin Chuan was certain that his opponent's strength was only at the Quasi-Immortal Emperor level, and he didn't know how far he was from becoming an Immortal Emperor.
Therefore, he was confident in fighting Bei Chudao.
Bei Chudao wasn't moving fast, but his figure had a strange rhythm. Suddenly, Qin Chuan's expression changed. He took a step forward and forced Wu Dianzhu and the others back.
Because Bei Chudao had made his move, and his target wasn't Qin Chuan, but actually Wu Dianzhu and Zhao Han.
Qin Chuan's eyes flashed with icy light. Bei Chudao was forcing Qin Chuan to fight head-on.
If Qin Chuan didn't choose to fight Bei Chudao head-on, then Wu Dianzhu and Zhao Han would definitely die, or rather, Wu Dianzhu would definitely die.
Zhao Han's strength was very powerful and special, but whether she could dodge was unknown.
During this time, Zhao Han's Yin-Yang Avatar had reached a minor completion. She had a Yin-Yang constitution, so the Yin-Yang Avatar could be said to be tailor-made for her.
Zhao Han's Yin-Yang Dao was innate, only her realm wasn't as high as Qin Chuan's, so the Yin-Yang Avatar was now her main cultivation ability.
It's only at a minor stage of mastery, and its success in extremely dangerous situations is uncertain, so whether he can dodge it is hard to say.
Qin Chuan naturally couldn't watch Hall Master Wu and Zhao Han take risks, so he had no choice but to clash head-on with Bei Chudao.
Actually, Qin Chuan wasn't lacking confidence in a direct confrontation, but he didn't want to take the risk. His anger stemmed from Bei Chudao's actions.
Bei Chudao's move was actually quite complex. After all, Qin Chuan had crippled Bei Chu Shao in front of him before, and now he wanted to eliminate Hall Master Wu and Zhao Han in front of Qin Chuan as well.
Bang!
Qin Chuan's body trembled, and he breathed a sigh of relief. The opponent's attack power hadn't yet terrified Qin Chuan. Of course, this was probably not Bei Chudao's strongest attack.
Bei Chudao's expression was one of shock, utter shock. Although he hadn't used his full strength, this was already eighty percent of his output. He
had originally thought that this attack would seriously injure Qin Chuan, or at least severely injure him, unless he had some kind of protective treasure.
But now he didn't feel any protective treasure, yet the opponent seemed completely unharmed by this attack, which shocked him immensely.
Qin Chuan chuckled disdainfully, "Is this your strength? If so, you could leave your life here today."
"You're a little better than I expected, but only a little. Killing you is as easy as turning
my hand," Bei Chudao said, pulling out a short sword.
Yes, a broken sword.
The longsword was less than two feet long, its sharpness fully revealed, radiating cold light. Those around involuntarily took a step back, for no one doubted that it was a divine weapon.
Qin Chuan's eyes narrowed, sensing a threat; his skin tightened, and his golden divine eyes scanned.
A demon-slaying sword!
Yes, a broken demon-slaying sword. But Qin Chuan was curious: how did such a divine weapon break?
But now was not the time to consider that. Qin Chuan already knew what Bei Chudao was up to.
An assassin!
Bei Chudao was a speed-based assassin; a divine weapon combined with unparalleled speed would make him a terrifying force.
Qin Chuan's face showed excitement. He had already drawn his Dragon-Slaying Dagger. In terms of speed, compared to divine weapons, he wasn't afraid.
Bei Chudao was stunned when he saw the weapon Qin Chuan took out, but a cruel smile quickly appeared on his face.
*Whoosh! Whoosh!*
A long afterimage appeared, and the figure multiplied into more than a dozen, rushing towards Qin Chuan from all directions, surrounding him.
It all happened too fast. Qin Chuan's Golden Divine Eyes, combined with his Heavenly Dao Divine Sense, allowed him to lock onto one of the figures.
The most basic ability of special divine eyes is to see through illusion and reality; this is the fundamental ability of special eyes.
This is seeing through illusion and reality, seeing through the essence. Of course, whether one can see through the essence depends on the eye's ability; even seeing through illusion and reality depends on the eye's level.
If the eye's level is insufficient, then one cannot see through illusion and reality, just like these figures before Qin Chuan. His eye's level was insufficient, so he still couldn't distinguish between illusion and reality.
Divine Dao Step!
Qin Chuan's figure blurred, the afterimage disappeared, but surprise flashed in Qin Chuan's eyes. His attack missed, and he felt a sharp pain in his shoulder.
He had been attacked, but he hadn't managed to strike Bei Chudao.
A trickle of blood appeared on his shoulder, but the wound was shallow and stopped bleeding quickly. Qin Chuan's heart was filled with complex emotions.
Since learning the Divine Path Step, he hadn't suffered a loss. Now, with his strength and realm improved, he hadn't expected to be attacked while using the Divine Path Step.
Bei Chudao smiled at Qin Chuan: "Interesting. You actually managed to escape my deadly attack. I'll see how many moves you can withstand."
With that, Bei Chudao charged again, exactly as before, surrounding Qin Chuan from all directions in an instant.
A cold smile appeared on Qin Chuan's face. This time, he didn't move, but closed his eyes and took a slight step forward.
Divine Path Step!
Still the Divine Path Step. This time, the movement was more strategic. In this battle, without using the Divine Path Step, Qin Chuan felt he might not be able to withstand even a single move.
The speed and agility were terrifying, especially in this kind of battle. His opponent's strength and realm were high, and with a divine weapon, even continuous bleeding could kill him.
Speed is the only way to win!
*Pfft!*
This time, Qin Chuan and Bei Chudao's figures missed each other. Qin Chuan was unharmed, while Bei Chudao had a bloody gash on his shoulder, in the exact same spot as Qin Chuan's.
Bei Chudao stared blankly at his shoulder, frozen in place. Although this attack was exactly the same as before, he hadn't expected Qin Chuan to dodge it.
But now, not only had his opponent dodged it, but he had also delivered a precise strike, the positioning of which terrified him.
