On the West Dragon Mountain of the Bai Hua State. People came and went, creating a lively and joyous atmosphere.
On this day, the first-rate sect of the Bai Hua State, the Xuan Qing Sect, was about to hold a sect leader handover ceremony.
An exceptional prodigy of the Bai Hua State was about to assume the position of sect leader under the watchful eyes of countless onlookers.
Countless dignitaries and sect higher-ups traveled to the West Dragon Mountain to congratulate this rising star of the Kingdom of the Nine States.
The new sect leader, Duan Yong, stood at the center of the ceremony in a prim and proper manner. His eyes were glowing with vigor and vitality, and his aura was boundless and powerful.
He received the guests from all over the Kingdom of the Nine States with a smile on his face.
The old Sect Master, Gongsun Ji, had a benevolent smile on his face as he looked at the man who was surrounded like a moon surrounded by stars with a gratified expression.
"Congratulations, Senior Gongsun. You've finally made your way out of this." A brawny man made his way to Gongsun Ji's side with an envious expression.
"That's right, a great teacher produces an exceptional disciple. We're all in awe of you for being able to produce such an exceptional disciple!" Another elderly man chimed in.
"Hahaha … Mr. Liang Cheng, Elder Wu, what are you saying? I just happened to pick up a treasure." Gongsun Ji stroked his beard in a modest manner.
Even though his words were filled with modesty, there was still an undisguisable sense of pride in his eyes as he looked at Duan Yong.
Duan Yong had been groomed by him, so he was naturally very happy to see his exceptional disciple.
The prodigy of the Xuan Qing Sect, Duan Yong, wore a warm smile on his face the entire time, and all of the representatives who came to congratulate him were full of praise for him.
"Sect Leader Duan, I've heard so much about you, and I'm truly in awe of your exceptional demeanor. How many men in this world are as exceptional as you?" A representative from the Great Tang Imperial Family spoke with a smile.
"That's right, Sect Leader Duan is an exemplary young man. In my opinion, in the entire Kingdom of the Nine States, only Sect Leader An Lin of the Four Nine Immortal Sect can compare with you," another sect representative chimed in.
Duan Yong's expression became serious upon hearing this. "Sect Leader An Lin possesses exceptional aptitude and is the role model for all cultivators! How am I qualified to compete with An Lin now? I only hope that he'll be my goal and I'll work hard to catch up to him. I hope that I won't be left too far behind! "
"Sect Leader Duan has such strength, but he's still so humble and polite. We can't compare to him." A representative lamented.
Duan Yong smiled and said nothing, but there was a confident smile on his face.
After a while, he said with some regret, "It's a pity that An Lin is far away in the Celestial Court and has things to do. If he can come here to participate in the celebration, I believe he and I will definitely become good friends. "
When the representatives heard this, they all chimed in.
"You want to be my friend? You're not worthy! "
A voice suddenly rang out, echoing throughout the entire ceremony.
All the representatives were stunned when they heard this. They stared blankly at the man in front of them, who was followed by a giant white dog.
Behind him, a large group of guards silently rolled their eyes, foamed at the mouth, and fainted on the ground.
Before Duan Yong could speak, one of the generals began to shout angrily, "Men! This man trespassed into the sect and injured the guards. Take him down! "
A group of guards rushed toward the man and set up a joint attack formation.
"Scram!" The man opened his eyes, and the supreme might of a king spread out. Golden ripples instantly enveloped thousands of meters and impacted the void.
All the guards, including the generals, were so frightened that their eyes rolled back, and they foamed at the mouth, fainted on the ground. At the ceremony, tens of thousands of representatives and sect disciples who came to congratulate also fainted. Most of those who did not faint knelt on the ground as if they were respectfully welcoming the arrival of their king.
Duan Yong calmed himself down, but he could not hide the surprise in his tone. "Fellow cultivator An Lin?"
The man smiled faintly. "You're Duan Yong?"
Duan Yong smiled naturally and cupped his hands slightly. "Yes, I am Duan Yong. Fellow cultivator An Lin has come from afar, please forgive me for not going out to welcome you!"
When everyone saw this, their expressions changed drastically. They did not expect the legendary An Lin to come to the ceremony in such a domineering manner.
"Hehe, I am An Lin, but I'm not your fellow cultivator.
"Because … a beast like you is not worthy of calling me by my name! You're not worthy of being my brother! "
An Lin's body flashed, and he charged directly toward Duan Yong.
Duan Yong's expression shifted, but he was a newly-advanced Return to Void Stage mighty figure, and his reactions were not weak. He took a step forward, and an extremely powerful crimson barrier appeared before him.
An Lin's fist was enshrouded in golden light, and a terrifying power of the earth erupted forth, instantly pulverizing the crimson barrier. Duan Yong was also instantly sent flying with blood gushing from his mouth.
Duan Yong was astonished. He did not think that his power would be so vulnerable in the face of An Lin.
Before he had a chance to do anything, An Lin's figure had already flashed before him. There was no expression on his face, and it was as if he was looking at a dead man as a terrifying golden light enshrouded his fist.
Boom!
Another earth-shattering sound rang out.
The earth tremored violently, and the terrifying golden energy caused the ground within a radius of several kilometers to crack open.
"Cough cough …" Duan Yong lay on the ground, trembling uncontrollably. He felt as if all of his internal organs had been shattered, and he threw up blood incessantly.
An Lin was like a God of War as he looked down at Duan Yong with a foot firmly planted on his chest, preventing him from moving.
Everyone stared at the scenes unfolding before their eyes in shock.
The supreme prodigy of the Bai Hua State was insta-killed by An Lin just like that? He was way too weak!
"Stop! Sect Leader An Lin, let's talk this out! "Old Sect Leader Gongsun Ji yelled as he hurried over.
All of the other cultivators also recovered from their shock and hurried over to mediate.
Duan Yong repressed his injuries with great difficulty as he spoke in a calm voice, "Mr. An Lin, is there some misunderstanding between us? This is the first time we've met, and there's no vendetta between us."
An Lin waved a hand, and Dabai immediately took out a photographic crystal to record.
"Tai Chu Era 8578, May 11th. What did you do?" An Lin asked in an indifferent voice.
Duan Yong's expression shifted slightly upon hearing this. That day had indeed left a deep impression on him. Why would An Lin mention that day? Did he know something about it? Could it be …
Before Duan Yong could say anything, Gongsun Ji spoke with a calm expression, "I have some recollection of that. During that period of time, my disciple went to eradicate the evil cultivators of the Red Lotus Demonic Sect for the sake of the peace of the Bai Hua State!"
"Then do you know that he killed an innocent family of 28 people just because an outer sect member of the demonic sect committed a crime? He also raped a female cultivator named Kong Zuili to death?" An Lin asked in a slow voice.
Everyone erupted into an uproar upon hearing this.
Duan Yong yelled, "You're lying! An Lin, do you have any proof? What you're saying is groundless, it's slander! I can swear that I definitely didn't do what you're saying that day! "
An Lin pulled out the Vermilion Bird Mirror from his pocket. "Vermilion Bird Mirror, is Duan Yong telling the truth?"
"Not a single word is true," the Vermilion Bird Mirror replied in a concise manner.
An Lin raised his head and looked around at all the cultivators present before speaking in a clear voice, "Did you hear that? I'm here to seek justice for those twenty or so lives! I'm going to show you what kind of beast this sanctimonious man is! "
Many of the cultivators turned to Duan Yong with different expressions upon hearing this.
In contrast, Duan Yong's expression was filled with grief and indignation. "Mr. An Lin, I have no vendetta against you, so why are you trying to harm me? This mirror clearly belongs to you, so it'll say whatever you want it to say! "
"That's right! Our Xuan Qing Sect is a righteous sect! Duan Yong has spent his entire life slaying demons and defending the righteous path, so how could he possibly do something like this?!" Gongsun Ji also defended himself in a loud voice.
An Lin put away the Vermilion Bird Mirror. "The Vermilion Bird Mirror is a Vermilion Bird Origin Treasure with its own will. It doesn't have a habit of lying, so you can verify this with the Vermilion Bird Sect."
"Besides …" An Lin's eyes narrowed as he looked down at Duan Yong with a cold smile. "What kind of bullsh * t righteous sect is this? Even their sect leader is scum, so how can he call himself a righteous sect?"
"I'm not here to debate! I'm here to tell you the truth before sending that piece of sh * t to hell! "
A black sword projection flashed as blood splattered through the air.
A bloodcurdling wail erupted as Duan Yong's limbs were all severed by An Lin!
"That's all!"
