Everyone behind Jian Xu was terrified upon seeing this scene. In their eyes, Jian Xu was an invincible existence. Even their palace master must be cautious when facing him. How could Yun Lintian defeat him with a single strike?
"Puff!" Jian Xu coughed up a mouthful of blood.
He stared at Yun Lintian and the sword in the latter's hand. "Without a wielder, a sword is nothing but a piece of metal. Are you saying I lose because your sword is better than mine? Hah! I have been practicing for more than three thousand years. This is the first time I heard such a ridiculous statement!"
Yun Lintian shook his head slightly. "Of course, it's not only about the sword but also the understanding of its path."
"Ridiculous!" Jian Xu was furious. "You are saying that my understanding of the sword's path is inferior to you!? Hahaha! Don't make me laugh."
