Yu Fei Sea was having a rather pleasant chat with Gao Xuan along the way, almost forgetting that he was forced to accompany him.

His impression of Gao Xuan had also greatly improved.

This unparalleled handsome young man, with a sunny smile, cheerful and generous character, and extremely strong swordsmanship, was truly suitable to be a friend.

However, the tragic death of Lan Sicheng suddenly woke Yu Fei Sea up. No matter how handsome or good-natured this young man beside him was, deep down he was aloof, not valuing other lives.

Well, he also had no mercy.

To be honest, seeing Lan Sicheng's head roll around in the air was quite exhilarating.

Through this event, Yu Fei Sea truly realized Gao Xuan's ruthlessness and terrifying nature.

He quickly calmed down and readjusted his perception of Gao Xuan: powerful, ruthless, rational.

As for the handsome appearance, witty conversation, and graceful demeanor, those were all superficial. All were used to deceive girls.

Realizing this, Yu Fei Sea couldn't help but curse Gao Xuan in his heart. But his attitude towards Gao Xuan became more respectful.

Being friendly and kind to people doesn't necessarily earn you the same in return. However, showing sufficient power always commands respect.

Gao Xuan understood this principle early on. He didn't kill Yu Fei Sea because there was no need.

He didn't save Lan Sicheng for the same reason, there was no need.

Gao Xuan and Yu Fei Sea's indifference to saving others was seen as weakness by the two Wan Family swordsmen.

Lan Sicheng's military uniform clearly suggested he was allied with Gao Xuan and Yu Fei Sea.

If the two had helped earlier, they probably would have been the dead ones.

The two Wan Family swordsmen glanced fiercely at Gao Xuan and Yu Fei Sea. If they weren't in poor condition, they would have already drawn their swords.

Gao Xuan ignored the two swordsmen and said to Yu Fei Sea, "Lan Sicheng's sword isn't bad, you can take it."

Yu Fei Sea glanced at the two Wan Family swordsmen, feeling a bit uneasy.

"Master Gao, these two are very dangerous."

Before Yu Fei Sea could finish speaking, three more swordsmen emerged from another cave entrance. Judging by their attire, it was clear they were also Wan Family swordsmen.

The Wan Family is a well-known noble family on Purple Dragon Star, with a very distinctive symbol of a swastika. It's usually tattooed on their necks.

The gold swastika emblem was also present on the chest of these swordsmen's armor.

The newly arrived three swordsmen were also covered in injuries. However, each of their eyes was beaming with spirited light. Although wounded all over, they were mere flesh wounds, not affecting their combat abilities.

Seeing the opponents outnumbered them, without Gao Xuan having to say it, Yu Fei Sea automatically retreated behind Gao Xuan.

What a joke, there were five swordsmen on the opposite side.

The swordsmen from Purple Dragon Star were renowned for their bravery and combat skills. Yu Fei Sea didn't even have confidence in defeating one swordsman, let alone five.

Acting as Gao Xuan's assistant to do the hard work, enjoying Gao Xuan's protection was only right.

Yu Fei Sea retreated without hesitation, with an air of correctness.

The Wan Family swordsmen saw Yu Fei Sea's cowardly demeanor and all showed contemptuous smiles. The alien swordsmen were indeed weak and cowardly.

The swordsmen didn't remember Yu Fei Sea, but they remembered Gao Xuan. No choice, Gao Xuan was the kind of person you would remember for a lifetime after seeing once.

"Kid, don't be afraid."

A Wan Family swordsman took two steps forward and said solemnly, "We won't wantonly kill people either. Just put down your swords, and you can leave."

The swordsman's words were simple, but to a swordsman, the sword is their dignity. How could they surrender their swords easily?

Especially in the Blood Dragon Cave, during the Blood Dragon Sword Assembly, everyone was a competitor.

Putting down your sword was equivalent to giving up resistance and leaving yourself at someone else's mercy.

Yu Fei Sea sneered coldly, these fools didn't know to take advantage when they had it. Did they truly think Gao Xuan was easy to bully?

He widened his eyes; this time he was determined to see things clearly.

No one paid attention to Yu Fei Sea at this time; the Wan Family swordsmen were all focused on Gao Xuan.

Gao Xuan calmly said, "You guys are quite reasonable. I'd feel bad just outright killing you. So, following your advice, put down your swords, and you can leave."

Gao Xuan's words were light and casual, but the Wan Family swordsmen's eyes glittered fiercely. They could mock Gao Xuan, but they couldn't tolerate being mocked by him.

The leading swordsman sneered, "Looking for death."

As he spoke, Ming Che Sword Light already rippled in his eyes.

Rippling and undulating ming che sword light, dazzling in an instant and disappearing in the next.

The movements of the five Wan Family swordsmen halted simultaneously, with a long sword mark splitting open in their foreheads. Blood gushed from the back of their heads as if it were free.

Yu Fei Sea, eyes wide, looked bewildered. He had exerted all his effort to watch Gao Xuan's movements but saw nothing, only the flash of the sword light.

Just like ripples on a calm lake, flickering and disappearing without a trace thereafter.

Gao Xuan seemed unmoved, he hadn't even seen Gao Xuan draw or sheath his sword.

"Let's go."

Gao Xuan had no interest in lingering with a heap of corpses. He casually walked outside, not forgetting to remind Yu Fei Sea, "Don't forget to take the sword."

Yu Fei Sea shook his head, what a freak. Judging by Gao Xuan's state when drawing the sword, it seemed he could unleash this move at will.

Swordsmen generally have their secret skills that allow for powerful bursts of force. However, it requires immense power, often with a great price.

But looking at Gao Xuan's relaxed demeanor, it seemed like he effortlessly struck with his sword a moment ago. Just normal procedure.

That was truly terrifying.

Yu Fei Sea silently sighed; being a swordsman like Gao Xuan was beyond reason, even beyond his understanding.

I've heard that Gao Xuan is from Pegasus Star, but how could such a desolate place produce a master this powerful?

With someone like Gao Xuan, he should become a Golden Sword Saint in the future, right?

Thinking of this invigorated Yu Fei Sea; serving a future Golden Sword Saint would indeed be an honor.

People need self-motivation and self-suggestion.

Through this method, Yu Fei Sea quickly adjusted his state, becoming more proactive in his work.

Gao Xuan and Yu Fei Sea ventured further underground, encountering more and more enemies. Lоvе this stоry? Shоw suppоrt аt

The swordsmen participating in the Sword Assembly were all very combative, let alone facing only two people, Gao Xuan and Yu Fei Sea. Gao Xuan even looked particularly easy to bully.

Therefore, the two of them encountered seven waves of enemies on their path. Sometimes three to five, at most over ten.

Without exception, no matter how many people there were, as soon as they drew their swords, they fell dead on the spot. No one could last a second under Gao Xuan's sword.

Yu Fei Sea silently calculated; as they traversed, Gao Xuan killed two hundred and thirty-seven people. More than half of them were swordsmen.

Only on Purple Dragon Star were there enough swordsmen to be killed by Gao Xuan in such numbers.

Even so, Gao Xuan's efficiency in killing was extraordinarily astonishing.

In past Sword Assemblies, although there were many casualties, those were due to mutual slaughter. The swordsmen who won the championship didn't personally kill many.

After all, they were all swordsmen—although there were significant differences between them, they weren't overwhelmingly disparate.

The previous champions, the Long Brothers, were said to have killed thirty-seven swordsmen together. Even that was incredibly astounding.

The Long Brothers became renowned throughout Purple Dragon Star, their fame even surpassing the Flowing Fragrance Sword Zichuan Fragrance.

In this assembly, Zichuan Fragrance participated, likely aiming for the Long Brothers. Of course, winning the championship would be of immense benefit to the Zi Family.

Yu Fei Sea initially held the Long Brothers in awe, but witnessing Gao Xuan's unparalleled swordsmanship, all the swordsmen became trash in his eyes.

Remember, the total number of participants in the Sword Assembly was less than four hundred, with about half being swordsmen.

Subtracting those who killed each other, almost all the remaining ones were dealt with by Gao Xuan.

Yu Fei Sea thought that there shouldn't be many people left at the underground altar.

Indeed, when they arrived at the underground altar, there were only a dozen or so people there.

The underground altar was a towering circular monolith, covered in bizarre symbols, appearing dark red throughout.

In front of the monolith was a massive stone pit, full of bloodstains. It looked extremely eerie and terrifying.

The space around the monolith was vast, thousands of square meters, with hundreds of thick, long stone spires hanging from the ceiling.

Standing in such a space naturally made one feel very oppressive.

In front of the altar, the brothers Long Feilin and Long Feijiao with two swordsmen occupied one corner.

Zichuan Fragrance with two swordsmen occupied another corner.

The two sides confronted each other from a distance, filled with killing intent.

The remaining people split into two groups, clearly cobbled together at the last minute, casting each other wary glances.

Gao Xuan and Yu Fei Sea's entry drew everyone's attention.

All eyes focused on Gao Xuan. Even though Yu Fei Sea carried a dozen swords, no one gave him a second glance.

Their attention on Gao Xuan was not only due to his looks but also because Gao Xuan was too clean.

Those who came to the underground altar had undergone many tough battles. Even Zichuan Fragrance bore a few bloodstains, her high hair bun slightly disheveled.

As for the Long Brothers, they were even more battered in comparison.

One could say that everyone present was more or less injured, and due to intense battles, too exhausted to adjust, appearing quite disheveled.

Yet Gao Xuan was spotless, as if he had just left home.

This made everyone wonder how Gao Xuan managed to reach the underground altar.

Long Feilin said to Long Feijiao, "What's the deal with this kid?"

Long Feijiao shook his head, "Don't know. But he looks pretty formidable. Be careful."

To reach the underground altar unscathed, regardless of how Gao Xuan managed it, proved his formidability.

No one present was foolish, and no one rashly sought trouble with Gao Xuan. However, in observing him, their eyes were filled with a more cautious surprise.

Even a proud swordsman like Zichuan Fragrance told her companions, "Watch out for that boy."

Gao Xuan paid no mind to everyone's attention; he walked straight to the altar.

Standing there, he could clearly sense the intense evil aura emanating from below.

The Alien God lay beneath the altar; this giant monolith sealed the entrance to its realm.

But, what should be done with this Alien God?

Gao Xuan felt a bit hesitant. Alien Gods might possess great power, but lacked wisdom. With the suitable method, they could be killed.

The question was, why take the substantial risk to kill an Alien God?

Honestly, separated by the spatial passage, the Alien God's influence on the outside world was negligible. Ultimately, this situation resulted from Purple Dragon Star's unceasing blood sacrifices over millennia.

This was also a survival method for the people of Purple Dragon Star, one that couldn't be measured in simple right or wrong terms.

Gao Xuan pondered a moment and then turned around. He said to everyone, "I'm this assembly's champion. Everyone agrees, right?"

His nonchalant words triggered all their anger and murderous intent.

Yu Fei Sea, standing next to Gao Xuan, couldn't help but take a step back. Gao Xuan not only mastered swordsmanship but also possessed an advanced taunting skill.

With a single sentence, he drew everyone's hatred!
