Chapter 182:This is Really Overestimating Me
For a moment,everyone in Taihua looked at Ye Xuan with shocked eyes.Even Qin Zhenren couldn’t understand why Qingxue would make such a statement.
She felt that although the relationship between Qingxue and Ye Xuan was not simple,Qingxue wouldn’t praise Ye Xuan to this extent just because of their relationship.
So,Ye Xuan must have done something truly remarkable.
Hearing Qin Zhenren inquire about this matter,Qingxue smiled slightly and turned her gaze to Hu Qianzao,saying.”The matter is not too complicated to explain…”
“There was a group of demons who invaded Jade Fox Palace,whose strength and power were extremely formidable,even managing to entangle three immortals of Jade Fox Palace,including myself,and they nearly cut off Jade Fox Palace’s contact with the outside world.”
“If that had happened,even I wouldn’t have been able to escape.Fortunately,at that time,Ye Xuan demonstrated extraordinary strength.With his own power,he dramatically changed the course of the battle.”
“…”
Hearing Qingxue’s words,Hu Qianzao couldn’t help but look at her gratefully.She had thought Qingxue would bring up the misunderstanding between her and Ye Xuan.
Although those were the facts and she owed Ye Xuan,talking about those embarrassing things now would definitely make her lose face.
Meanwhile,the people of Taihua Mountain looked somewhat speechless at Qingxue.If Qingxue had said that Ye Xuan helped them at a critical moment,allowing them to turn the tide of battle,they might have believed it.
After all,there are some people destined by fate in this world who,despite their weak strength,always manage to turn the tide at critical moments.
A certain Heavenly Emperor,for example,was chosen by the Divine Emperor Sword to slay a great demon that even the righteous immortal alliance couldn’t handle,and he was subsequently elected as the Heavenly Emperor by all cultivators.
At that time,he wasn’t even an immortal,and he only wielded the sword at a crucial moment.Actually,defeating that great demon had nothing to do with his own strength.
But…
Ye Xuan didn’t have any Divine Emperor Sword,nor did he possess extraordinary cultivation.Yet,Elder Qingxue claimed that Ye Xuan,with his own strength,dramatically changed the battle’s outcome?
That seems a bit too exaggerated.For a moment,everyone’s doubtful eyes turned towards Qingxue.Surely the usually aloof Elder Qingxue wouldn’t lie,right?!
“Ha ha ha…Elder Qingxue,you must be joking,”laughed Yushou at this point.”
“”Junior Brother Ye Xuan is just a minor disciple in the Spiritual Insight stage,you say he was lucky to help you,we can certainly believe that,but his strength…What strength does he have?”As he spoke,a deep disdain flashed in his eyes.
Hearing this,the disciples of Taihua nodded in agreement.
“Elder Qingxue,you must be joking,right?”
“…”
Hearing Qingxue praise him so highly,Ye Xuan himself couldn’t help but be speechless.This woman,praising her man,really doesn’t know the meaning of modesty.
But since she had already spoken,he couldn’t debunk her.Although it might seem unbelievable,he indeed changed the course of the battle with his own strength.
It wasn’t just luck.
“I’m not joking,”seeing that everyone around her didn’t believe her,Qingxue didn’t say much,but raised her hand.
A beam of light flew from her hand,illuminating the entire grand hall of Taihua.
She then said,”If you don’t believe it,see for yourself.”
“What is that?”
Seeing the treasure mirror in the sky turning into a giant mysterious light mirror,some Taihua disciples curiously asked.
“This is one of Taihua’s treasures,the Former Dust Mirror.It’s said that it can show all past events that have occurred.”
“What?!!”
Hearing this,those who were unaware of the Former Dust Mirror’s capabilities were utterly astonished.
“There is such a treasure…then,what secrets in this world could be hidden from this mirror?With this mirror,one could know anything they wish to know.”
“Not necessarily so.”A disciple familiar with the Former Dust Mirror began to speak.
“”This mirror,although powerful,relies merely on capturing past shadows.It can reveal what is in the owner’s mind but has its limitations…it needs the owner to capture some of the spiritual energy from the scene.”
“Isn’t this similar to the Mystic Dream Technique we learned?”
“Yes.”The Taihua disciple responded to the others,”The Mystic Dream Technique of our Taihua Sect originated from the Former Dust Mirror,but its effects are not as wondrous as those of the Former Dust Mirror.”
“I see.”
“Then,what this mirror shows cannot be false.”
Those who had studied the Mystic Dream Technique knew that the images within the mirror could not be fabricated.
Everyone turned their gaze to the screen,curious to see what Elder Qingxue wanted them to see.
Suddenly…
Everyone saw in the display a handsome face with a serious expression,looking ahead.The person in the image was Ye Xuan.
While people were curious about what Ye Xuan was looking at,the scene shifted to his point of view.
The sky was torn apart as if ripped open by force,and through numerous spatial rifts,demons in black robes and winged beasts were continuously flying out.
In front of Ye Xuan was the devastated Jade Fox Palace.In the sky,four formidable figures stood suspended.An old man,an old woman,two female demons,and a young man with golden eyes.
The young man with golden eyes had a mocking expression,looking down at the people of Jade Fox Palace as if they were mere ants.
It seemed as if at any moment,they would lead an army from the sky to turn the entire Jade Fox Palace into a sea of flames.
At that moment,Ye Xuan’s figure shook,his hand flicked,his expression solemn,as he manipulated his sword technique.
Immediately behind Ye Xuan,one,two,three,several hundred-meter-tall Tai Chi sword seals appeared.
Thousands of Qi swords materialized within those Tai Chi sword seals,shooting towards those villains in the sky.
In an instant,the sword energy was like a flood,like a mighty river rushing towards the figures in the sky,even enveloping the powerful old man,the old woman,and the two great demons.
Faced with Ye Xuan’s Qi swords,even beings as powerful as they had to dodge everywhere.At that moment,it seemed as if the entire universe contained only Ye Xuan and his sword.
He was the protagonist of this world.
“Uh…”Watching himself look so cool in the scene,Ye Xuan couldn’t help but be a little stunned,‘Damn?Is that really me…When did I become so cool?‘
It felt as if the entire Former Dust Mirror was focusing on him as the main character.Every shot displayed the most handsome side of himself,conveniently cutting to the most embarrassing moments of those powerful beings in black.
Adding to that,the scenes where Qingxue,Ren Bai,and Hu Lan were helping him were obscured by the angle of the camera.It looked as if he was single-handedly overpowering several immortals.
‘Even if others were lucky enough to be in the frame,it was during moments when he was helping them,and they were looking at him gratefully.
It seemed like he was the true hero who saved Jade Fox Palace.‘
‘That’s a bit too much praise,isn’t it–!!!If it were a one-on-one fight,I would not be a match for any of them,maybe I could compete with that young man.’
‘But without others’help,I definitely wouldn’t have survived.Yet,the angle of the camera really overestimated me.Could it be that this is how Qingxue sees me?!They say love makes a hero…’
‘Even if I were just standing there,her gaze towards me would always be full of fondness and admiration.’
With that thought,Ye Xuan turned his gaze towards Qingxue and indeed saw her face flushed as she watched the image of him in the scene.
It was as if she was smitten by the version of him in the display.
