Chapter 1407 (Raw 1398): A Bolt from the Blue

Right now, the entire plaza turned incredibly quiet. As the many bladesmen listened to what Xiao Chen said, they all entered deep thought.

"Thank you for the lesson!" Zhao Feng and Xing Feng said in unison. Then, after performing cupped-fist salutes, they retreated and gently landed back on their stone pillars.

Wen Ziran said, "Everyone here is a famous bladesman of the new generation in this golden age already; all are true bladesmen. As bladesmen, there is no need to fixate on victory or defeat. How about we make use of this opportunity to seek some advice from the Shadowless Saber Sovereign? In comparison, we will gain more benefits. After all, this is a rare gathering."

"That's right. I am Feng Xingsheng. I mainly cultivate the Quick Wind Saber Dao. Would the Shadowless Saber Sovereign please offer me advice?" Feng Xingsheng stood up and said sincerely. Wen Ziran was right. Since the other party was clearly several levels higher, they might as well take advantage of this opportunity to seek advice and improve their own comprehension of the Saber Dao.

Although the three people who challenged Xiao Chen earlier all lost, they benefited greatly. This was the best example.

Xiao Chen said calmly, "Not a problem. Please."

Ten moves later, Feng Xingsheng lost. Xiao Chen selflessly spoke about all his understanding of the Quick Wind Saber Dao and the deficiencies of Feng Xingsheng's Saber Technique.

Feng Xingsheng closed his eyes and entered deep thought. Then, he returned, feeling satisfied, and started to reflect on what he learned.

Closely following that, an endless stream of challengers stepped forward, all of them fighting Xiao Chen one after another without pause. Fortunately, Xiao Chen did not hate such a thing. On the contrary, he liked it. Pointing out the deficiencies of others served as a reminder for himself too.

It was like the saber in his hand. Although its name was Pride, Xiao Chen controlled it, and his heart always remained humble.

There were some brilliant bladesmen as well. Xiao Chen did not hold back on words of praise, even asking for some advice without putting on any airs.

For the past three years, this was how Xiao Chen lived. He was immersed in the Saber Dao, shamelessly asking when he saw new or strange Martial Techniques, so he was already used to this.

The atmosphere of the place turned very collegial. The segment of making friends through the saber was very successful. The effect Xiao Chen brought far surpassed Wen Ziran's expectations, making him feel extremely satisfied.

Everyone chatted happily and eventually used the battles against the Shadowless Saber Sovereign to determine the Saber School Ranking.

Naturally, the Shadowless Saber Sovereign was ranked first on the Saber School Ranking. The second rank was Wen Ziran, who lasted the longest against Xiao Chen. The third was the Ghostly Bladesman, Zhao Feng.

After Zhao Feng rested for a while, he had challenged the Shadowless Saber Sovereign again and immediately gained enlightenment on the spot, improving the Matchless Supernatural Being by another step and leaving a deep impression on everyone.

In this tea party, aside from the Shadowless Saber Sovereign, it was the Ghostly Bladesman, Zhao Feng, who surprised everyone the most.

"Crack!"

At the center stone pillar, Xiao Chen's clone suddenly shattered, and Pride soared into the air.

At first, everyone was stunned. When they looked in the direction that Pride flew in, they discovered the true body of the Shadowless Saber Sovereign arriving.

"Dang!" The moment the Cycle War Chariot firmly landed on the ground, Pride reattached itself back into it. The war chariot rolled over the ground, giving off those melodious tinkling sounds that sounded very pleasing.

"Let's go and welcome the Shadowless Saber Sovereign."

Wen Ziran was the first to jump off, and the many bladesmen quickly followed after, landing on the wide road.

"You finally arrived. We have been waiting for a long time," Wen Ziran said with a faint smile. After all, a clone was not the true body and would always be treated differently.

"Shadowless Saber Sovereign, will you step out of your war chariot and let us see your true face?" someone asked curiously.

Everyone here was definitely curious about the Shadowless Saber Sovereign's true face. It was not just these bladesmen but also the cultivators who rushed over to watch the excitement.

Exactly what kind of person could gain such a reputation within three short years?

Had this person had been silent all the while, only erupting out in this golden age, or was he already famous long ago and was just acting mysterious?

Instantly, all eyes present, more than ten thousand of them, stared at the Cycle War Chariot, waiting for the Shadowless Saber Sovereign's reply.

Xiao Chen felt helpless. He already expected such a situation from attending this tea party. However, at this moment, he really could not get off the war chariot. He still could not face his own identity as the Azure Dragon King.

Every time Xiao Chen thought about every tombstone in the bloody graveyard and the words "Xiao Chen" outlined with blood, it was like a nightmare repeatedly flashing in his head.

"Don't do to others what you do not want others to do to you."

A resonant voice rang out from behind, stunning everyone at the same time. They all felt like they could not properly hold the saber in their hands, so frightened that they trembled.

"It's Senior Saber Sovereign!"

Everyone looked back and instantly letting out surprised gasps when they suddenly saw the white-haired Wu Xiaotian.

The Saber Sovereign Wu Xiaotian had not appeared in public for many years already. The last time he did so was during the Azure Dragon King's Great Tribulation of wind and fire.

"Greetings, Senior Saber Sovereign!"

"Greetings, Saber Sovereign!"

Wu Xiaotian's title "Saber Sovereign" was entrenched deep in everyone's heart. He was like a god to all the bladesmen, someone that could not be surpassed. For example, those Inferno Saber Sovereign, Ice Saber Sovereign, Quick Wind Saber Sovereign, and others, he was much stronger than them. He was the one and only sovereign of sabers.

"Master, what happened to your hair?" Wen Ziran asked quickly after he rushed over and saw Wu Xiaotian's white hair.

Others might not know, but Wen Ziran was very clear that just this morning, his master's hair was still black, and he appeared spirited. Now, he clearly faded significantly. He could not cover up the aged aura coming from him.

"No need to worry for Master. I just let go of something," Wu Xiaotian said gently. He was quite satisfied with this disciple of his.

Inside the war chariot, Xiao Chen was somewhat surprised as well. He did not know what startled the Saber Sovereign. Could it be that the Saber Sovereign recognized me?

That's impossible. Among the wondrous uses of the Cycle War Chariot, there was one particular function: separation from the world and forming its own space. Even a Prime would not be able to uncover his true identity.

Unless Xiao Chen came out of this Cycle War Chariot, no one would know that he was the Azure Dragon King Xiao Chen.

"Whoosh!"

While Xiao Chen was thinking, Wu Xiaotian suddenly soared into the air and rushed at the Cycle War Chariot.

In reflex, the seven Divine Weapons on the Cycle War Chariot all unsheathed and charged at Wu Xiaotian.

"Dang! Dang! Dang!"

Wu Xiaotian used his hands to receive the sabers. Every move of his contained a vast and huge saber intent, using his bare hands to resist the Divine Weapons without getting injured.

The clangor sounded like explosions. Every time he exchanged a move, the entire Heavenly Saber Mountain Manor trembled.

Retreat. The Cycle War Chariot soared into the air and moved back one kilometer.

Wu Xiaotian advanced, attacking increasingly faster as he fought with the seven Divine Weapons. When Xiao Chen materialized the Taiji Saber Domain, Wu Xiaotian laughed bitterly, unable to break this technique.

The other party's level in the Saber Dao truly reached the peak. No one could rival him.

However, who was Wu Xiaotian? After all, he was a Ninth Heaven Sovereign Martial Emperor that wielded the Coiling Monarch Time Saber, someone who could fight against a Prime.

Many times, one did not need to rely on technique to defeat the enemy. Wu Xiaotian soared into the air and focused his energy on his finger. "Bang!" The seven Divine Weapons were all knocked back, and the Taiji Saber Domain broke.

A shock wave swept out. All the bladesmen present were caught off guard and went flying, vomiting blood.

They all had shocked expressions as they looked at that Cycle War Chariot. The Shadowless Saber Sovereign could actually force Wu Xiaotian to use his strength. Just how powerful was the Shadowless Saber Sovereign?

"Whoosh!"

With this one instant of opening, Wu Xiaotian disappeared in a flash, entering the Cycle War Chariot.

"Little brat, you are getting bold. To think that you actually dare to attack me," Wu Xiaotian laughed as he casually sat down in the war chariot.

When Xiao Chen heard this, he immediately understood that Wu Xiaotian still managed to recognize him after all. He smiled bitterly. "I'm able to hide from everyone, but in the end, I'm still unable to hide from Senior."

"What nonsense! I played around with the saber for my whole life. If I cannot even recognize a person, wouldn't I be a laughing stock?" Wu Xiaotian retorted while pointing at the Lunar Shadow Saber by Xiao Chen's side.

Xiao Chen rejoiced and quickly handed the saber over. "Senior, since the Item Spirit of this saber merged into it, it has been almost five years, but she still has not woken up. I wonder what is wrong with it?"

"Great saber," Wu Xiaotian muttered as he toyed with the Lunar Shadow Saber. It was like he never heard Xiao Chen's question, making him feel helplessly anxious.

After a while, he handed the saber back to Xiao Chen and said, "It is as I guessed. Although your cultivation in the Saber Dao already surpassed mine, the hidden problems in your heart became even greater."

"What do you mean?"

"Your saber is fine. You are the problem. She can't recognize you. Naturally, she will not let you draw her!" Wu Xiaotian explained calmly, enunciating every word.

However, these words were like thunder resounding in Xiao Chen's head.
