Chaotic Sword God

ra meters, and was slowly reducing the distance between Dugu Feng and himself.

Sensing that Jian Chen was still chasing him, Dugu Feng’s face grew startled as he thought to himself, “Could fifth uncle and the other three men have been killed by Jian Chen? No.
There’s no way.
Fifth uncle was at the Fifth Cycle Earth Saint Master, there’s no way for him to be killed by Jian Chen that quickly.” There was disbelief as that thought went through his mind.
He knew that Jian Chen’s strength was far higher than what he had thought if he could disregard the barriers on both Shi Xiangran and Jiede Wukang.
He shouldn’t be strong enough to kill his fifth uncle and the three other Third Cycle Earth Saint Master bodyguards even if he were to use a Ruler Armament.
By this point, Dugu Feng had already deemed Jian Chen to be a terrifying existence that he could not afford to fight.
He increased his speed even more, determined to protect his Ruler Armament.

Dugu Feng wasn’t a man that feared death, but he wanted to prevent the Ruler Armament from falling into any other man’s hands.
Thus, he could only run away.
The Ruler Armament was something every clan would pay a heavy price for, and would tremendously impact the clan’s power and influence.
Dugu Feng absolutely could not allow his Ruler Armament to fall into someone else’s hands.
Otherwise, his clan would be condemned to a lifetime of shame that could not be recovered from.

The two men’s speed slowly increased to the maximum.
Ten kilometers had been traveled in a short amount of time.
Running past the forest, they reached a clearing.

Right now, Jian Chen had closed the distance to Dugu Feng.
By now, there was only a single kilometer separating the two.
Even though Dugu Feng wasn’t a wind attribute, his running speed was still quite superior to most, so even Jian Chen had to exert a lot of energy to chase after him.

At this moment, ten kilometers away from Jian Chen, a black robed youth with hair that reached down to his waist was quickly running toward a forest.
This youth looked to be around 27 or 28 year old, and had a firm look on his face.

“I’ve heard that the cave of a previous cultivator was around here and contains a Heaven Tier Battle Skill.
People even say that the five experts were all gathered there as well.
Bah, I should go take a look myself–hopefully I’ll be able to find him.” The black robed youth muttered to himself.

Just then, the black robed youth saw two figures appear a few kilometers away from him, quickly charging over in his direction.

Seeing the two people, the youth revealed a look of disdain as he muttered, “Another two men rushing to their deaths.
I hope they’re not too weak, I want to test out my strength.” With that, the youth examined the two, but the moment he saw their faces, a look of shock overtook it.

“Are my eyes going bad, this is too much of a coincidence!” The black robed youth spoke as he kneaded his eyes gently.
With a closer look, he concentrated on the two men before smiling widely and charging straight at them.

“Friend, hold off the man behind me and the Dugu clan will reward you handsomely!” Dugu Feng had already thrown away his face and reputation for the sake of preserving the Ruler Armament.
While he knew that he was not an opponent for Jian Chen, he would much rather fight Jian Chen to the death than try to flee.

For the sake of the Ruler Armament, he could not choose this option.

Hearing Dugu Feng’s words, the black robed youth was stunned for a moment before he smiled meaningfully.
With a simple movement, a wind attribute Saint Force could be seen as it covered the youth’s body, Like an arrow, he flew toward Dugu Feng and Jian Chen with a faster speed than before.

The black robed youth’s speed was almost inconceivable.
In a moment he had traveled several kilometers, causing both Jian Chen and Dugu Feng to be shocked.
The moment Jian Chen saw the youth’s face, he went still as a surge of emotions swell up in him.

Dugu Feng was shocked for a moment before becoming happy.
He didn’t think that his luck would be good enough to meet such a strong person.
With his fast speed, even if he wasn’t able to defeat Jian Chen, he would at the very least keep him occupied.

“Friend, help me hold up the man behind me and the Dugu clan will reward you.” Dugu Feng spoke once more with a relaxed voice.

The youth revealed a strange smile, but he did not respond to Dugu Feng.
Bringing out his cyan colored longsword, he quickly slashed at Dugu Feng with an alarming speed.

Bringing up his Ruler Armament to defend himself, Dugu Feng quickly protected himself.
The youth staggered back a few steps as his feet dragged across the ground.

What was more shocking was that the Ruler Armament-wielding Dugu Feng had also been forced back three steps by the ordinary looking sword of the youth.

“Friend, what is the meaning of this?” Dugu Feng’s face grew dark before shock filled his face.
The youth’s strength was extraordinary, and even after blocking the sword, his inner organs had felt the vibration from the blow.

“Could this average looking youth somehow be a Heaven Saint Master?” Dugu Feng thought to himself in terror.

The youth recollected himself before looking at the sword in Dugu Feng’s hands with some surprise before cursing out loud, “F*ck, so it was a Ruler Armament.”

With the youth holding up Dugu Feng, Jian Chen had quickly caught up.
Standing twenty meters away from Dugu Feng’s back, he smiled at the black robed youth.

The youth looked at Jian Chen with a happy smile before waving his hands, “Hey, Jian Chen! I didn’t think I’d meet you in such a manner.
You seem to be doing quite well if you can bring even a Ruler Armament user to heel.”

Jian Chen revealed a happy smile on his face, “Ming Dong, it’s been almost a year since we last saw each other, I barely recognized you.”

This one youth was unexpectedly Ming Dong, who had stayed in the midair shrine.
Nearly a year had passed, but his strength had undergone an earth-shattering transformation.
