"Cough cough …"
Lin Yuanzhi clutched his chest as he violently coughed. His cold gaze swept across Ling Chi's body before finally landing on Ye Xuan. His eyes flickered with killing intent as he spoke in a cold and angry voice, "Young Master Ye, are you really going to interfere in the internal affairs of my Nine Heavens Sword Sect for the sake of this traitor, Ling Chi?"
From Lin Yuanzhi's point of view, although Ling Chi was powerful, he was only one person. Even with Jian Yuanlin and Jian Yuanguang, these three former elders of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect, they were not enough to be feared.
As long as Ye Xuan, his two maids, and the divine beasts didn't interfere, then it would be easy for them to get rid of Ling Chi. That was why Lin Yuanzhi spoke at this moment.
"I said it before, Ling Chi is my brother. His business is my business."
Ye Xuan ignored Lin Yuanzhi's cold gaze. He pointed the Jun Ni Sword in his hand at Lin Yuanzhi and coldly said, "No matter what, all of you must die today."
Ling Chi was his second clone. Back then, when Ye Xuan used "Possession" to occupy him, he promised Ling Chi that he would take revenge for him. This was also the obsession he left in his second clone. Only by killing Lin Yuanzhi would he be able to undo this last bit of obsession and fulfill his promise to Ling Chi, allowing the second clone to perfectly fuse with this body.
Therefore, no matter who interfered today, they wouldn't be able to stop Ye Xuan and the others from killing Lin Yuanzhi. Even the Nine Heavens Region Lord, Qin Jiutian, wouldn't be able to do so.
"Is that really the case?"
A cold light flashed in Lin Yuanzhi's eyes as he coldly said, "If that's really the case, then don't regret it!"
As Lin Yuanzhi's words fell, he took out a jade slip and crushed it on the spot.
Previous Chapter Next Chapter "Boom!"
The instant the jade slip was crushed, a tremor came from the depths of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect, as if something terrifying was awakening. Soon after, three terrifying energy pillars shot into the sky.
Under the shocked gazes of countless people, three sage-like old men appeared from the energy pillars like banished immortals. They stepped on the air and came with the wind.
In just an instant, they arrived at the plaza.
"Greetings, Grand Elder!"
Looking at the three old men, Lin Yuanzhi, Lin Yun, and the disciples of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect respectfully cupped their fists.
The Ninety-Heaven Sword Sect had three Supreme Elders who had lived for countless years. They were infatuated with the way of the sword. They stayed in seclusion all year round and paid no attention to the affairs of the world. Very few people had the opportunity to see them.
However, as Lin Yuanzhi crushed the jade slip, the three Supreme Elders of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect all came out of seclusion at this moment.
The names of these three elders were Sword Ancestor, Sword Addict, and Sword Buddha. As for their cultivation, it was still a mystery. Very few people knew.
"Your Majesty, Imperial Preceptor, President Xiao, Pavilion Master Ling …"
The Sword Ancestor, the Sword Addict, and the Sword Buddha looked around and nodded slightly at Qin Jiutian, the State Master Chen Zuan, the President of the Alchemist Guild, Xiao Tianyao, and the Pavilion Master of the Nine Dragons Pavilion.
Following which, their gazes fell onto Lin Yuanzhi, Lin Yun and the rest. Looking at their miserable appearances and the chaotic scene around them, their brows furrowed without a trace as they coldly asked, "Sect Master Lin, what happened? Why did you wake the three of us up?"
"Reporting to the three Grand Elders, today was the wedding day of my son, Lin Yun, and the Grand Princess, but the former traitor of the sect, Ling Chi, brought many helpers back to cause trouble in an attempt to destroy our Nine Heavens Sword Sect. I led everyone to fight against the enemy and fought several battles. I was seriously injured and was unable to fight anymore, so I boldly asked the three Grand Elders to come out and clean up the sect …"
Lin Yuanzhi respectfully cupped his fists towards the three Grand Elders and explained what had happened, accusing Ling Chi and the others of their heinous crimes.
After listening to Lin Yuanzhi's story, the expressions of the three Grand Elders became terrifyingly gloomy. They looked at Ling Chi, Ye Xuan, and the others with undisguised coldness as they coldly said, "Ling Chi, do you know your crimes?"
"I was ambushed and chased by Lin Yuanzhi during my tribulation. Now that I have returned to the Sect Master to take revenge and take back what belongs to me, may I ask the three Grand Elders, what crime did Ling Chi commit?"
Ling Chi's eyes flashed with a cold light as he coldly said.
"A bunch of nonsense. Back then, you colluded with outsiders and betrayed the sect. Your crimes are unforgivable … Now, you still dare to bring someone back. This is simply treason, deceiving your master and destroying your ancestors!"
However, the attitude of the three Grand Elders caused Ling Chi's expression to turn extremely cold.
Before Ling Chi could speak, the three Grand Elders continued, "You have committed a heinous crime and killed a disciple of the sect. This is simply unforgivable. Considering our past relationship, if you cripple your own cultivation and scram down, I will spare your life!"
These three Grand Elders clearly knew the whole story of what had happened back then, but for the sake of the Nine Heaven Sword Sect and the overall situation, they still stood on Lin Yuanzhi's side and sided with him.
After all, in their opinion, Lin Yuanzhi's current status and value in the sect far surpassed Ling Chi's.
"Grand Elder..."
Seeing this, Jian Yuanguang and Jian Yuanlin were about to say something, but they were interrupted by the three Grand Elders, "Yuan Guang, Yuan Lin …" Considering that you have contributed to the sect, it is still not too late for you to realize your mistakes. I can restore the three of you to your positions and identities in the sect … "
"It seems like the three Grand Elders are determined to side with Lin Yuanzhi …" The current Nine Heaven Sword Sect is no longer the Nine Heaven Sword Sect of the past. The three of us will not return, and are willing to follow Sect Master Ling Chi to the death! "
Jian Yuanlin, Jian Yuanguang, and the others cupped their fists towards Ling Chi and spoke with solemn expressions.
Hearing the words of Jian Yuanlin and the others, the expressions of the three supreme elders of the Nine Heaven Sword Sect gradually turned ice-cold. Then, their gazes descended onto Ye Xuan, Ao Bingxue, and the others as they coldly said, "This matter is the internal affairs of my Nine Heaven Sword Sect, it's best if you don't interfere …" If you all immediately descend the mountain, my Nine Heaven Sword Sect will not pursue today's matter! "
It was obvious that the three supreme elders of the Nine Heaven Sword Sect were unwilling to cause a ruckus.
"Three old things, what big words you have!"
The words of the three supreme elders of the Nine Heaven Sword Sect caused Ye Xuan to sneer. His gaze towards them was filled with undisguised coldness.
Weren't these fellows targeting Ling Chi the same as targeting him?
How could Ye Xuan give them a good expression?
"Today, this young master will give you a choice in front of everyone. Obediently hand over Lin Yuanzhi and his son, as well as the murderer who framed Ling Chi, and this matter will be dropped. Otherwise, don't blame us for being merciless and destroying your Nine Heaven Sword Sect!"
Ye Xuan's words could be said to be sonorous and forceful, causing everyone present to be unable to help but be moved.
They really didn't understand where this fellow got such great confidence from, to actually threaten to destroy the Nine Heaven Sword Sect.
"Haha …" What an arrogant child … "You don't know the immensity of heaven and earth!
"Ye Xuan's words caused the expressions of the three supreme elders of the Nine Heaven Sword Sect to turn ice-cold. At this moment, they started laughing loudly.
As the laughter rang out, waves of powerful auras spread out from their bodies, stirring up a violent gust of wind.
Everyone at the scene felt an unprecedentedly powerful pressure descend, enveloping them. When they looked at the three Supreme Elders of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect, their gazes were filled with undisguised seriousness. "Eight-star Realmlord!"
"Three eight-star Realm Lords?"
Ye Xuan sneered as he felt the pressure from the three supreme elders of the Nine Heaven Sword Sect. His eyes flashed with a cold light.
With the battle prowess of him, the Sea Splitting Mysterious Dragon Whale, and Ling Chi, it wouldn't be difficult for them to deal with three eight star Realm Lords. Not to mention that there were also Hun Yuying, Ao Bingxue, and Jian Yuanlin, these five experts with extraordinary battle prowess.
Moreover, Ye Xuan and the others also had the ten thousand year ice dragon, Berserk Blood Toad, Ice and Fire Double-headed Dragon, and other divine beasts.
It could be said that Ye Xuan and the others could rely on their powerful strength to deal with the current situation.
The trip to the Void Ruins had greatly increased Ye Xuan's strength. At the same time that he'd broken through, it had also given him sufficient confidence.
"This is the last time. Now, all of you obediently scram down the mountain. Today's matter …"
The Supreme Elder, the Sword Ancestor, coldly said as he stared at Ye Xuan.
"Cut the crap, let's do it!"
However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Ye Xuan's cold voice.
"Since that's the case, then go and die …" All disciples of the Nine Heaven Sword Sect, listen up, kill them … "
"Hold on!"
Immediately, the three great elders of the Nine Heavens Sword Sect were about to give the order to surround and kill Ye Xuan and the others when an ice-cold and dignified voice sounded out.
As the voice sounded out, under everyone's astonished gazes, the elder of the Immortal Gazing Tower, Qing Mu, stood up and flew to Ye Xuan's side. He cupped his fists towards Ye Xuan and said, "Greetings, Young Master!"
"Qing Mo, what is the meaning of this?"
Looking at Qing Mu, who'd suddenly charged out and stood on Ye Xuan's side, everyone's eyes were filled with confusion and doubt. Lin Yuanzhi couldn't help but ask in a cold voice.
"Lord Nightfall is an absolutely honored guest of the Forgotten Immortals Tower. His business is the business of the Forgotten Immortals Tower. If your Nine Heaven Sword Sect wants to make a move against Lord Nightfall, then you're declaring war on the Forgotten Immortals Tower and making an enemy out of us!"
At this moment, Qing Mo didn't hesitate to express the position of the Gazing Immortal Tower.
Moreover, he had already begun to arrange for the experts of the Wangxian Tower to rush over.
After all, if something really happened to Ye Xuan here, then he wouldn't be able to bear the responsibility of the Tower Master.
Last time, he and Qiu Susu went to the Azure Battlefront to support Ye Xuan and the others. When they returned, they received a reward from the Tower Master, causing his cultivation to increase by a large amount.
Thinking about how Ye Xuan's cultivation had risen so quickly, Qing Mo already understood that he was that reincarnation. Now, he naturally had to find an opportunity to form a good relationship with him.
"What?"
"Is this Qing Mo crazy?"
"Is there a mistake? Qing Mo is actually representing the Immortal Gazing Tower to support that kid at this time?"
"What the hell is going on? What exactly is the relationship between that kid and the Immortal Gazing Tower?
Qing Mu's stand caused everyone present to be astounded, and many people couldn't help but start discussing animatedly.
After all, from their point of view, Qing Mo didn't seem to have any interactions with that kid called Ye Xuan.
"Young Master Ye has such a relationship with the Immortal Gazing Tower?"
Qin Yuanyuan's eyes flickered with wisdom as he muttered to himself.
When he was in the Sea Emperor Realm, he'd heard about Ye Xuan going to the Immortal Gazing Tower, but he didn't know that Ye Xuan and the Immortal Gazing Tower were actually so close.
"What exactly is the background of that guy?"
It wasn't just Qin Yuanyuan, even the president of the Alchemist Guild, Xiao Tianyao, was frowning at this moment.
The Nine Dragons Pavilion's Pavilion Master, Ling Tianhao, sent a sound transmission to Qin Yuanyuan, "Old Qin, what is the background of that kid called Ye Xuan? To actually be able to make the Immortal Gazing Tower, which has always been neutral and does not participate in power struggles, support him so strongly?"
"Pavilion Master, I don't understand this either, I just …"
Immediately, Qin Yuanyuan recounted how he got to know Ye Xuan and what happened after he got to know Ye Xuan.
After listening to Qin Yuanyuan's story, Ling Tianhao frowned, as if he was deep in thought.
At the same time, many of the ministers of the Nine Heavens Empire, as well as the Imperial Advisor Chen Zuan, fell into deep thought and doubt because of Qing Mo's sudden statement. They didn't understand Qing Mo's motives or the reason why he stood up.
The eyes of the Region Lord, Qin Jiutian, flickered with wisdom. These fellows at the scene didn't seem to put him, the Region Lord, in their eyes at all. Could it be that they really treated him as if he, the Region Lord, didn't exist?
However, Qin Jiutian still didn't plan to make a sound at this time.
He wanted to see how much of a ruckus they could cause here today.
What kind of trump card and appeal did that kid called Ye Xuan have?
