Lin Gang died. First, his heart was shattered by Zhou Song's fist. Then, his throat was pierced by Li Ke's sword. Before he died, Lin Gang turned his head and looked at Li Ke unwillingly. Maybe he didn't expect that he would be killed immediately.
Originally, Li Ke was supposed to be his ally, but he was persuaded by Lin Qing and turned to the Sword Gate. It was also because of this that the Blood Saber Valley had failed and he had died.
There was no doubt that Lin Gang knew what his death meant to the Blood Knife Valley. Perhaps it would not be long before the Blood Knife Valley was removed from the Great Thousand World. From then on, the Blood Knife Valley would cease to exist in the Great Thousand World.
He didn't dare to, but he had no choice. Lin Gang's consciousness became more and more blurry. In the end, his life was cut off, and he died unwillingly.
One could easily imagine the impact of Lin Gang's death on the Blood Blade Valley. Upon seeing this scene, the Blood Blade Valley members, who were still stubbornly resisting, completely lost their will to fight. There were even some who began to secretly flee.
The defeat was like a landslide. As the Blood Blade Valley members fled, the Sword Sect members chased them down. With that, the Blood Blade Valley, which was already on the verge of defeat, was completely defeated. Lin Gang's death was the last straw that broke the Blood Blade Valley's back.
They no longer had the strength to fight the Sword Sect. Probably not many of the Blood Blade Valley experts present would be able to escape.
Looking at the scene in front of him, He Ying knew that it was over. The Blood Blade Valley was finished, and so was he. This was because after killing Lin Gang, Zhou Song and Li Ke arrived in front of He Ying. The four End Realm experts blocked off all of He Ying's paths of retreat.
He Ying had no way out and was already at his limit. Now that he was facing four End Realm experts, he didn't have any chance at all.
A self-mocking smile appeared on his face. He Ying also gave up on resisting. His gaze swept across Zhou Song and the others before landing on Cang Xing. He said in a low voice.
"Since things have already reached this stage, the winner takes all. I have nothing to say."
Facing four End Realm experts at the same time, He Ying naturally knew the outcome, which was why there was no need to continue fighting.
Hearing this, Cang Xing didn't reply. He just looked at He Ying indifferently. Under the gazes of Cang Xing and the other three, He Ying turned his gaze to Xiao Chen. A strange glint flashed in his eyes as he shouted.
"Xiao Chen, I do admire you for allowing the Sword Sect to grow to such an extent in such a short period of time. However, I, He Ying, still do not recognize you as the Sect Master because you don't have the right."
Without waiting for Xiao Chen's reply, He Ying secretly circulated the Spiritual Energy in his body and forcefully severed his eight extraordinary meridians.
After spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, He Ying's face turned pale. Then, his entire body fell straight to the ground.
Even though he knew that he had no chance, He Ying wasn't willing to be captured alive. Since he had already betrayed the Sword Sect, now that Blood Blade Valley was defeated and Lin Gang was killed, there was only one outcome for him, which was death.
Rather than dying in the hands of Xiao Chen, why not kill himself. That way, He Ying could still keep his last bit of dignity.
Seeing He Ying kill himself, Xiao Chen also came to Cang Xing's side. He looked calmly at He Ying's corpse. Xiao Chen's face didn't show much emotion.
Although He Ying didn't admit that he was the Sect Master, this wasn't important to Xiao Chen. Whether He Ying admitted it or not, it didn't matter.
He Ying died, but Xiao Chen didn't feel any joy or sadness. He didn't feel happy because he killed this traitor, nor did he feel pity because He Ying was an End Realm expert.
Since they were not on the same side, it was naturally impossible for them to walk together. Therefore, Xiao Chen did not feel anything special about He Ying's death. At most, he just sighed inwardly. After all, He Ying was once the deputy lord of the Sword Gate. That was all.
Looking deeply at He Ying, Xiao Chen said to Cang Xing and Zhou Song, "I'll leave the rest to you guys."
"Yes." Hearing this, Cang Xing and Zhou Song respectfully nodded.
Since the Blood Blade Valley was defeated, Xiao Chen left the rest to Cang Xing and Zhou Song. Then, Xiao Chen turned to look at Li Ke.
In terms of cultivation, Li Ke definitely wouldn't place Xiao Chen in his eyes. However, facing Xiao Chen's gaze, for some reason, Li Ke couldn't help but feel nervous.
Maybe this was Xiao Chen's identity. After all, although Xiao Chen was only at the Enlightenment Realm, in terms of identity, Xiao Chen was the Sect Master of the Sword Sect. He wasn't someone Li Ke could offend.
Hence, out of instinct, Li Ke took the initiative to bow to Xiao Chen. "Li Ke greets Sect Master."
As an End Realm expert, Li Ke actually took the initiative to bow to Xiao Chen. What Li Ke didn't expect was that he didn't seem to have any resistance to bowing to Xiao Chen. This was the benefit of his identity.
Facing Li Ke's bow, Xiao Chen didn't act arrogant at all. He personally helped Li Ke up. Xiao Chen smiled and said, "Senior Li Ke, there's no need to be so polite."
Although Li Ke joined the Sword Sect, he was still an End Realm expert. Hence, Xiao Chen still gave him face.
Facing Xiao Chen's warmth, Li Ke finally heaved a sigh of relief. Before, he was really afraid that Xiao Chen wouldn't accept him.
One must know that even the Blood Blade Valley was destroyed. With the strength of the Sword Sect, it wouldn't be too difficult for them to destroy the Sky Sword Sect. In fact, it would be very simple.
However, from the looks of it, Xiao Chen obviously didn't have such thoughts.
After helping Li Ke up, Xiao Chen and the other two stood in the air. Then, Lin Qing roughly explained the situation to Xiao Chen. After hearing that Li Ke had decided to lead the Sky Sword Sect to join the Sword Sect, Xiao Chen smiled and said to Li Ke.
"Senior Li Ke, I believe that you won't regret your decision today. The Sword Sect welcomes you."
Xiao Chen didn't hesitate to agree to Li Ke and the rest of the Sky Sword Sect joining. After all, only a fool would reject such a thing.
Besides, Li Ke had shown enough sincerity by killing Lin Gang himself. Just as Lin Qing said, Li Ke had shown his sincerity to Xiao Chen and proved his sincerity. So, Xiao Chen naturally would not refuse.
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Li Ke once again cupped his hands and said, "Thank you, Sect Leader."
"Haha, okay, let's go back first. We'll leave the rest to Senior Cang Xing and Second Senior Brother. There shouldn't be any problems. After all, there's only the Deceased Demon Sect left. They won't be able to do much." Hearing this, Xiao Chen laughed out loud.
