Chapter 650: Fortunately, You Didn’t Hurt Him

If the crowd had been in an uproar when Nuotiangong was thrown down, then after Yeskong’s defeat, the excitement had turned into a boiling, frenzied storm…

The Ancient Martial Arts Conference had clearly become Xiao Yufan’s solo stage. Defeating five experts at the Post-Heaven stage in succession was enough proof of his extraordinary power. After all, if even a monstrous prodigy from the Guardian Temple had been defeated, who could possibly rival his might?

Gong Hao and Gong Luotian, among others, clicked their tongues in amazement without uttering another word. Could they still claim now that Xiao Yufan had merely relied on trickery?

In the face of true strength, they were like clowns hopping about, watching the dazzling aura surrounding Xiao Yufan.

“I lost. He’s truly strong!”

Ye Kong slowly walked toward the location of the Azure Spirit Pavilion, his gaze gradually softening as he looked at that peerless, breathtaking beauty. Everything he had done was merely to earn this woman’s approval. Yet now, it seemed he had been utterly foolish.

“Thank goodness you didn’t hurt him!”

Cheng Ying’s voice, rarely showing emotion, carried a rare tremor. Her words brought a bitter smile once again to Ye Kong’s lips. In the end, this woman’s heart still belonged solely to someone else.

“Besides me, there are many others who will want to challenge him. Just that I know of, there are at least five who are stronger than me!”

Ye Kong’s expression darkened slightly. If Cheng Ying had offered even one comforting word, he might have felt some joy. Yet she gave him nothing, not even a smile. Perhaps, in that heart long turned cold, there was only warmth reserved for Xiao Yufan.

“As long as he isn’t hurt. If anyone harms him, I will make that person pay double!”

Her ethereal voice was like celestial music. Though it carried no emotion, Ye Kong still sensed the icy killing intent beneath her words. Only Xiao Yufan could provoke such intense emotion from this young princess of the Azure Spirit Pavilion.

Letting out a dry chuckle, Ye Kong said nothing more. He shifted his gaze toward several other directions, sensing concealed auras, and slowly closed his eyes. It was time to recover after enduring so long against Xiao Yufan’s might.

At this moment, the roaring excitement had yet to subside. Standing atop the stage, Xiao Yufan seemed like a monarch surveying all beneath him. The title of the strongest among the younger generation had already been firmly placed upon him.

Xiao Yufan calmly swept his gaze across everyone, his lips curving into a proud, confident smile. Finally, his eyes locked onto the concealed seats of the Hidden Guo family.

That old dog from the Hidden Guo family, and the entire Hidden Guo clan, it was time for them to prepare their necks. Even now, Xiao Yufan clearly remembered the wounds inflicted by the Hidden Guo elder. In this martial arts tournament, he intended to return every last bit of that pain.

Now, even if he faced the true experts of the Hidden Guo clan, he would not retreat. In his eyes, that old man and Guo Junyu weren’t even worthy of being called dogs…

“Will someone from the Hidden Guo family step forward and fight me?”

Amid the fury of every member of the Hidden Guo clan, Xiao Yufan’s voice gradually spread outward. On a martial arts stage orchestrated by the Hidden Guo family, he had just slapped them in the face. Their expressions, no doubt, would be even more entertaining.

As Xiao Yufan’s words faded, the arena surprisingly fell into an unusual silence. This guy was actually provoking the Hidden Guo family—the hosts of the event. Could there be some hidden feud between them?

Just as everyone was speculating about the conflict between Xiao Yufan and the Hidden Guo family, a pair of bloodshot eyes slowly opened from within the Hidden Guo clan’s seats…
