On the high platform.
Su Han took a sip of tea and met everyone's expectant gazes. He slowly said,
"Let's talk about the follow-up."
"After Ye Gucheng was stopped by Ximen Chuixue, he knew that it was impossible for the assassination to succeed, so he immediately turned around and fled.”
"But by then, the guards of Hulong Mountain Villa, East and West Chambers, and Six Fan School had all received the news.”
"Iron Gut Divine Marquis Zhu Bujue, Liu Xi, Cao Zhengchun, Guo Juxia, and the other experts have all gathered outside the Forbidden City.”
"Ye Gucheng can't escape from the encirclement of these people by himself. He can only return to the summit of the forbidden city.”
"Thus, the battle on the summit of the forbidden city returned to the right track.”
"At the same time, this battle will also be a battle of life and death.”
"These two swordsmen, who stood at the peak of the Great Ming Sword Dao, have reached a state of mutual understanding and attacked almost at the same time.”
"To outsiders, their movement speed is very slow. This battle is neither intense nor exciting.”
"However, the real experts are extremely nervous because they can see that this is a battle of the pinnacle.”
"Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue's movement speed isn't fast, but the speed at which their blades change is very fast.”
"Every transformation is actually a battle.”
"In other words, when they rushed towards each other, they had already exchanged dozens of blows.”
"Ximen Chuixue is indeed a peerless sword genius. He is only twenty-six years old, but his swordsmanship is no weaker than the forty-year-old Ye Gucheng.”
"And he's still far from reaching the peak of the Dao of the Sword. There's still a lot of room for improvement.”
"However, Ximen Chuixue has a fatal weakness.”
'He has a woman in his heart. She's Emei Sect's core disciple, Sun Xiuqing, who's known as one of the Four Prodigies of Emei Sect.”
"Although the two of them only caught a glimpse of each other, Ximen Chuixue still couldn't forget them.”
"A heartless swordsman who has feelings in his heart will naturally slow down the speed of his sword.”
"Against ordinary enemies, this bit of speed is negligible.”
"But against Ye Gucheng, who is of the same strength, this is a fatal flaw.”
"For the last sword strike, Ye Gucheng used his famous ultimate skill,'Heavenly Fairy'!”
"Ximen Chuixue also used his strongest sword attack.”
"But he has feelings in his heart, so his speed is a little slower than Ye Gucheng.”
"Before his sword pierces into Ye Gucheng's heart, Ye Gucheng's sword will definitely pierce through his throat.”
"At this moment, Ximen Chuixue understood that he had lost. He had lost to Ye Gucheng.”
"But at the final moment, Ye Gucheng shifted his sword by three inches and was killed by Ximen Chuixue.”
"Because he has already committed a heinous crime. He will definitely die regardless of the outcome.”
"Rather than defeat Ximen Chuixue and die at the hands of Zhu Buguang and the other factory guards, he would rather die under Ximen Chuixue's sword.”
"This is what I said earlier. The one who died in battle was Ye Gucheng, but the one who lost was Ximen Chuixue.”
……
As Su Han's voice fell, the hall erupted again.
So that was how it was!
They finally understood the deeper meaning behind Su Han's words.
In the final battle, Ye Gucheng's swordsmanship had won, but because of the situation outside the arena, he chose to take the initiative to die.
This result made many people sigh. The peak swordsman of a generation had finally come to an end.
At this point, there was one less top-notch swordsman in the Great Ming Dynasty.
For a moment, everyone started discussing.
"It's a pity that Ye Gucheng is facing a death penalty. He can't concentrate on the battle.”
"I didn't expect that Ye Gucheng's death was actually his doing. If it weren't for the previous events, Ximen Chuixue would have died.”
"This Ximen Chuixue is able to match up to Ye Gucheng. It's enough to show how talented he is. After all, he's ten years younger than Ye Gucheng.”
"That's right! Although Ye Gucheng had won slightly in the end, it could be seen that the two of them were about the same. With Ximen Chuixue's talent, he could completely surpass him in a few years.”
"Indeed, women will only affect the speed of a swordsman's sword. If it weren't for the fact that he had a woman in his heart, Ximen Chuixue might not have been defeated.”
"This is big news. I didn't expect the usually cold Ximen Chuixue to actually have a woman in his heart.”
"I've long heard that each of the Four Beauties of Emei has an outstanding appearance. It seems that the rumors are true.”
"This Sun Xiuqing must be a top-notch beauty in the pugilistic world to be able to make Ximen Chuixue unable to forget her.”
……
In front of the railing on the third floor.
Lu Xiaofeng laughed and said," Mr. Su is really a god. You even know such a secret. I, Lu Xiaofeng, am truly convinced."”
As Ximen Chuixue's close friend, he naturally knew what Ximen Chuixue was thinking.
Even though Ximen Chuixue himself refused to admit it.
"That's not right! Even if Ye Gucheng had taken the initiative to die, he was still dead. How could Ximen Chuixue not be called the number one sword god?”
At this moment, someone in the hall raised another objection.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice, and a knowledgeable Jianghu noble recognized this person at a glance. He exclaimed,"Songyang Iron Sword, Guo Songyang!"
The moment these words came out, the big Ming's Jianghu dignitaries could not help revealing looks of surprise.
He didn't expect this sword expert to come to the Purple Gold Tower in Zhenbei City.
Although Guo Songyang's fame was far inferior to Ximen Chuixue's.
However, he was also a well-known sword expert in the Great Ming Dynasty, and he had become famous earlier than Ximen Chuixue.
Thirteen years ago, Wandering Know-it-all's " Armament Manual " had ranked Guo Songyang's Songyang Iron Sword at the fourth place. It was enough to show the strength of his swordsmanship.
There were even many people who believed that Guo Songyang's swordsmanship was not inferior to Ximen Chuixue's.
Those who were familiar with Guo Songyang already knew what he was thinking.
He wasn't arguing for Ximen Chuixue, but he wanted to fight for the title of number one Sword God!
However, everyone also wanted to know who else in the Great Ming Dynasty's Jianghu could surpass Ximen Chuixue's swordsmanship. It couldn't be Guo Songyang, right?
With this thought in mind, the group of Jianghu dignitaries looked at the high platform one after another, their eyes filled with curiosity.
On the high platform.
Su Han's expression was still indifferent as he smiled slightly and said,
"Whether Ye Gucheng dies or not, it doesn't affect what I said earlier.”
"In fact, there are many crouching tigers and hidden dragons in the Great Ming Dynasty. There are far more sword experts in the world than you can imagine.”
"In the past ten years, Ximen Chuixue has indeed outshone everyone else.”
"The swordsmen of the same generation are unable to catch up to him.”
"However, the martial world is endless, and there will always be pioneers who go further on the path of the sword. It's just that for various reasons, they are not known to the world.”
"If all the living sword experts in the Great Ming Dynasty were to be ranked on the Sword God Ranking.”
"Even if you exclude Ye Gucheng, Ximen Chuixue wouldn't be ranked in the top five of the Sword God Ranking List, let alone the number one Sword God.”
