In Qingzhou Ancient City, everyone was confused, including Su Changyu.
At this moment, Su Changyu slipped into endless confusion.
He wondered if there was something wrong with him.
He clearly wanted to say that he would let Ye Ping fight for him.
However, it changed when he said those words.
Besides, it wasn’t the first time.
Thinking carefully, Su Changyu suddenly realized that he had encountered a similar situation in the past.
He ended up saying something different from what he intended.

‘What’s going on?’
Su Changyu’s heart was filled with shock.
He liked pretending to be impressive, but he wasn’t retarded. He knew his limits.
He could make one or two frivolous remarks.
However, he couldn’t step up to fight someone.
Su Changyu knew better than anyone else how competent he was.
However, he couldn’t control his own mouth.
‘This is so damned absurd.’
The more he thought about it, the more strange Su Changyu found it to be. However, after some pondering, he still couldn’t think of a reasonable answer.
However, regardless of the problem, how could he solve it?
‘What do I do?’
‘What should I do now?’
Su Changyu panicked.
He felt that he was courting death.
At this moment, Su Changyu could not help but look at Ye Ping again.
The meaning was very simple, he just wanted Ye Ping to give him an out and save him from the embarrassing situation.
On the other hand, Ye Ping sensed that Su Changyu was staring at him.
When he thought about what Su Changyu said, Ye Ping immediately understood.
‘Senior Brother wants to fight the battle personally and hopes for me to comprehend the Sword Dao instead.’
At the thought of this, Ye Ping couldn’t help but bow. “Eldest Senior Brother, I’ll go comprehend the Sword Dao now.”
Su Changyu was dumbstruck.
‘Are you really going to comprehend the Sword Dao.’
‘I’m just giving you an out.’
‘Little Junior Brother, don’t go, hurry and come back.’
Su Changyu screamed in his head.
Unfortunately, Ye Ping had already started to comprehend the Sword Dao.
Xu Qubai and the others froze.
They did not expect that Ye Ping would sit on the ground to comprehend the Sword Dao.
‘What is this? You can still comprehend the Sword Dao in such a situation?’
‘Are you teasing me?’
On the contrary, Li Yu quickly asked someone to hold up a partition to shield Ye Ping from the sun, lest he got a sunburn. He behaved truly like a fan.
“Senior, please attack.”
At this moment, the young man in black said.
He gazed at Su Changyu and drew the longsword in his hand.
After he said that, everyone couldn’t help but look at Su Changyu.
Sensing their gazes, Su Changyu was feeling extremely frustrated.
The situation was indeed a little awkward.
He definitely couldn’t go forward, as he would definitely let the cat out of the bag once he did. There was no big deal about that since it wasn’t like he hadn’t been embarrassed before.
However… what if he got stabbed or hurt by the sword?
He was there to pretend to be impressive, not to court death.
‘What should I do? What should I do?’
Su Changyu panicked deep down. However, he remained extremely calm on the surface and was simply staying silent.
However, regardless of how calm Su Changyu was, the fact that he had been hesitating to attack for a long time made him feel strange.
About eighteen minutes passed.
Seeing that Su Changyu still had no signs of making a move, the young man in black could not help but speak out again.
“Senior, please attack.”
His tone was even firmer than before as he asked Su Changyu to start the fight.
However, Su Changyu still didn’t answer and simply looked at him indifferently, making the young man feel a little puzzled.
‘Is this person really pretending?’
The young man in black frowned. He had taken the initiative to start the battle twice, but Su Changyu did not answer, so he could not help but have this thought.
However, he soon dismissed that idea.
After all, if the Su Changyu in front of him was really a good-for-nothing, how could he agree to the battle?
That was obviously impossible.
‘Oh! I know.’
The young man in black came to a sudden realization.
“Senior, you must be hesitating because you think that I won’t have the chance to attack if you do, right?”
“In this case, I’ll embarrass myself.”
The young man in black said.
After he said that, the cultivators around him were all stunned as it seemed like a reasonable saying.
However, after hearing those words, Su Changyu couldn’t help but be dumbfounded.
‘You can imagine that too?’
‘Also, don’t come over.’
‘Give me some time to think about it.’
Su Changyu was extremely anxious because the young man in black had already walked over.
‘This is not a joke, I can’t pretend to be impressive anymore.’
‘Surrender!’
‘I surrender!’
Su Changyu yelled in his heart before speaking up.
“You’re wrong.”
As his voice sounded, the young man in black stopped in his tracks with some doubts. ‘Since it’s not like what I expected, what is it?’
Hundreds of thousands of cultivators in the Qingzhou Ancient City were curious.
‘What is the delay for?’
Sensing that everyone was looking at him, Su Changyu couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
He had already thought of an excuse. He would just come clean and explain everything clearly. He didn’t want to continue pretending, even if it meant that he would be embarrassing himself because that was at least better than dying.
Soon, after confirming what he wanted to say, Su Changyu spoke up slowly.
However, as soon as he did, he said something different.
“I already have.”
Everyone else fell silent.
The cultivators who were watching were dumbfounded.
The young man in black was dumbfounded.
Xu Qiubai was speechless.
Li Yu was speechless.
Su Changyu was speechless.

Everyone was silent.
Hundreds of thousands of cultivators were puzzled.
‘You’ve already attacked?’
‘Where’s your sword? Are you fooling us? Do you really think we’re fools?’
‘I know you like pretending, but you don’t have to be that pretentious, right?’
‘Please, I’m begging you, just hurry up. Damn it, you’re being too forceful. I’m about to vomit.’

At this moment, all the cultivators somehow felt awkward.
It was undeniable that Su Changyu did look like an expert.
After all, be it the attitudes of the disciples of the Four Thunder Swordsmanship Sect or the fact that Su Changyu had come down from the ancient beast warhorse, there was nothing they could pick on.
‘However, is he going overboard?’
‘You’ve already attacked?’
‘Where’s your sword?’
‘Where is the sword?’
‘Show me your sword. It can’t be that sword, right’
The cultivators were really speechless. In the beginning, they had some expectations, but now, they were just bored.
At this moment, Xu Qiubai and the others had only retreated slightly and it was obvious what they meant.
‘Don’t look at me, I’m not very familiar with him.’
Even Su Changyu himself felt very embarrassed, let alone the cultivators of Qingzhou.
Su Changyu felt even more awkward because he knew how competent he was.
‘It’s not that I didn’t want to say it.
‘Well, I can’t control myself, trust me.’
Su Changyu felt that his condition was getting worse.
He really didn’t say what he meant.
None of the cultivators believed Su Changyu.
However, there was only one person who was deep in thought.
Ye Ping.
Yes, it was Ye Ping.
No one understood Su Changyu except Ye Ping.
They didn’t understand because they didn’t know how strong Su Changyu was.
However, Ye Ping knew.
‘He’s a supreme Sword Immortal.’
‘How can mortals know about immortality?’
At this moment, Ye Ping closed his eyes, and he began to truly understand the Sword Dao.
The Endless Sword Diagram appeared in his mind, and in an instant, numerous sword moves appeared in Ye Ping’s mind.
He had sensed the sword move.
However, they were the sword moves of hundreds of thousands of Sword Dao cultivators.
The Endless Sword Diagram itself could be used to deduce any sword move. Besides, there were hundreds of thousands of sword cultivators there.
Ye Ping could naturally sense their sword intent.
However, those who had cultivated the Sword Dao before would condense the sword intent, though it would be extremely weak.
However, no matter how weak it was, the Endless Sword Diagram would definitely be used to deduce those sword moves.
However, Ye Ping had detected a terrifying sword intent.
It was from Su Changyu’s body.
The sword intent was extremely terrifying and it gave them a strange illusion, as if the sky and earth would crumble.
Unfortunately, the others couldn’t detect it.
However, at this moment, the young man in black’s voice sounded.
“Senior, where is your sword?”
The young man in black took a deep breath and looked at Su Changyu as he asked.
His voice sounded.
Su Changyu didn’t want to reply, but he couldn’t control himself and immediately said so.
“Everywhere.”
Su Changyu’s voice sounded, and he seemed extremely indifferent when he said that, reaching the extreme of bragging.
All of a sudden, Su Changyu wanted to die.
‘Why can’t I control my mouth?’
‘I clearly didn’t want to say that.’
‘But why couldn’t I control it?’
‘I don’t want to pretend anymore. I don’t want to pretend, I want to go home. I want to go back to the sect.’

Su Changyu was on the verge of crying.
The cultivators around him fell silent.
Su Changyu’s pretense was too exaggerated.
‘This is Qingzhou.’
‘Some people might applaud if this is the Ten Nations Sword Dao Meet, but the problem is this is the small Qingzhou. The highest realm that cultivators can reach is at most the Golden Core realm.’
Most of the cultivators watching were in the Qi Refinement realm, and they couldn’t coordinate at all.
It was just like going to a village where trade was all done using copper coins.
Who could stand that? Instead of pretending to be impressive, they might as well start fighting. What’s the point of wasting one’s breath?
The cultivators of Qingzhou were silent.
The young man in black too.
He didn’t know if what Su Changyu said was true or not.
However, he hesitated for a short while.
Finally, the young man in black attacked.
“Senior, I’m going to attack now.”
After saying that, he finally attacked.
Clang!
The black longsword in his hand jerked.
In an instant, his sword momentum was out.
The hundreds of thousands of cultivators had a change of expressions.
‘Are they finally going to fight?’
Everyone looked forward.
