Clang!
Whoosh!
An ear-piercing sound of metal clashing reverberated in the air, followed by the sound of a sword whistling in the air.
Everyone present could hear the sound of metal clashing.
As for the sound of a sword whistling in the air, less than half of the people present could hear it.
"So fast!"
Apart from Lu Zhao, Lu Sou, who was the most powerful person present, seemed to have seen something that shocked him. His eyes narrowed, and a look of shock appeared on his face.
As for the others, they could not see what was happening at all.
In their eyes, the Lu Clan's Third Young Master, Lu Huai, shouted as the Lu Clan's Elder, Lu Zhao, made his move on Duan Lingtian, intending to kill Duan Lingtian.
When Lu Zhao pounced on Duan Lingtian, they heard the sound of metal clashing.
Then, they saw a stream of blood splattering in the air. It seemed to have condensed into dazzling red roses in the air.
Boom!
In the next moment, the sound of a body falling to the ground reverberated in the air.
"H-How's this possible?!"
Many of the people present gasped as they looked at the lifeless body that fell to the ground.
Their faces and eyes were filled with disbelief.
Soon after, all of their gazes landed on the purple-clad figure standing there proudly.
These gazes were mixed with a sense of shock and inexplicable bewilderment.
"H-he killed Elder Lu Zhao?"
"How can he be so powerful?!"
"How old is he? He looks like he's only twenty-five years old at most. "
"Could he be a demon?"
"No! If he's a demon, why would he participate in the Alchemist Competition organized by the Lu Clan? It's almost impossible for a demon to become an alchemist, let alone a grade six alchemist or above. "
"If he's a human martial artist … Doesn't that mean that he possesses both a terrifying talent in the Martial Dao and an enviable talent in alchemy?"
…
Soon after, the gazes that landed on the purple-clad figure were filled with shock.
It was hard for them to imagine.
There was actually such a monstrous existence in this world!
"Uncle!"
At this moment, a green figure pounced out and landed beside Lu Zhao's body. He cried out sorrowfully, and his voice was filled with desolation.
"Uncle?"
Duan Lingtian, who had become the center of attention, coldly glanced at the green-clothed middle-aged man beside Lu Zhao's corpse. "No wonder Lu Zhao saw me as a thorn in his side … It turns out that one of the three people I injured was his nephew!"
Now, Duan Lingtian understood everything.
Other than Feng Tianwu who was lying in the ice coffin, Xiong Quan was the only one who was not shocked by Duan Lingtian's strength.
The others were so shocked that they couldn't regain their senses for a long time.
"He's actually so strong … to think that I was worried about his safety."
When Lu Bai, the Second Young Master of Lu Clan, regained his senses, he stared blankly at the purple figure in the distance. At this moment, he only felt that the purple figure in front of him was so tall.
"Is he really someone from the far south? How could such a monstrous genius be born in such a small place? "
Lu Bai's face was filled with disbelief.
It was not difficult for him to guess Duan Lingtian's origin due to their previous encounter.
"Where did Second Young Master get to know this Duan Lingtian? What a monster! "
The corner of Lu Sou's mouth twitched violently.
Earlier, Lu Zhao's attack on Duan Lingtian was as fast as lightning. He, who was unprepared, could not react at all.
Initially, he thought Duan Lingtian would be killed by Lu Zhao.
However, who would have thought that the outcome would be so dramatic?
"You … You …"
As Duan Lingtian looked at Lu Huai, the Third Young Master of Lu Clan, Lu Huai who was standing near Duan Lingtian had a horrified expression on his face.
Just like the others.
He did not expect Duan Lingtian's strength to be so terrifying that even Lu Zhao who was at the Eighth Level Void Transformation Stage was killed by him.
From the moment Lu Zhao attacked to the moment he was killed, let alone the fact that Duan Lingtian's strength did not trigger the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon, even Lu Zhao's strength did not have the time to trigger the Heaven and Earth Phenomenon.
Lu Zhao made the first move and gained the upper hand by striking first.
He was killed as soon as he made his move!
It all happened in just a blink of an eye.
Duan Lingtian's movements were so fast that he did not even see it clearly from the beginning until the end.
Lu Huai's face was flushed red as he looked at Duan Lingtian in horror. His legs were trembling when Duan Lingtian made his move.
Whoosh!
His hand shot out at lightning speed and grabbed Lu Huai's neck easily. He lifted Lu Huai's feet off the ground and hovered in the air.
At the same time, Duan Lingtian and Lu Huai looked at each other with a cold gleam in their eyes.
Killing intent rose from Duan Lingtian's body. It was obvious he wanted to kill Lu Huai.
"You … You … You want to kill me?!"
Lu Huai, whose face was flushed red due to Duan Lingtian's choking, asked with difficulty. Fear that came from the bottom of his heart and soul could be seen in his eyes.
"You've already ordered someone to kill me … Don't tell me I can't kill you?"
Duan Lingtian's expression and tone were calm.
However, the people present on the scene could hear the cold killing intent in his calm tone. It sent chills down their spines.
"Is this Duan Lingtian crazy? He actually wants to kill the Lu Clan's Third Young Master! "
"If he really kills the Lu Clan's Third Young Master, he won't be able to escape death no matter how strong his Martial Dao or Medicine Refinement Talent is!"
"Killing the Lu Clan's Third Young Master is equivalent to slapping the Lu Clan in the face. The Lu Clan will definitely not let this go!"
"At that time, even if the Lu Clan's Second Young Master pleads on his behalf, it'll be useless … He'll definitely die!"
…
The group of people who were watching by the side whispered among themselves. Their expressions were extremely solemn.
"Kill him! Kill him! "
On the other hand, the green-clad middle-aged man who was squatting beside Lu Zhao's body had just reached out to close Lu Zhao's eyes that were still wide open. However, his face was filled with rage and madness as he stared at Duan Lingtian.
He knew it was impossible for him to avenge his uncle.
Therefore, he could only place his hopes on the Lu Clan.
Duan Lingtian had already offended the Lu Clan by killing his uncle.
However, with the Lu Clan's Second Young Master pleading on his behalf, the Lu Clan would definitely not kill Duan Lingtian to avenge his uncle.
After all, his uncle was only a collateral disciple of the Lu Clan. Compared to the Lu Clan's Second Young Master, his life was as cheap as grass!
However, if Duan Lingtian killed the Lu Clan's Third Young Master, then everything would be different.
At that time, even with the Lu Clan's Second Young Master pleading on his behalf, the Lu Clan would still kill Duan Lingtian at all costs!
"Duan Lingtian, don't kill him!"
Lu Bai, the Lu Clan's Second Young Master, and Lu Sou, the Lu Clan's elder, shouted in unison when they sensed the killing intent rising from Duan Lingtian.
A hint of panic could be seen on their faces.
As members of the Lu Clan, it was only natural that they knew the consequences of killing a direct descendant of the Lu Clan.
"Huh?"
Duan Lingtian frowned and turned around to look at Lu Bai.
He had a good impression of Lu Bai.
However, he could not let Lu Huai go just like that.
Although he had already killed Lu Zhao who wanted to kill him, Lu Zhao was still under Lu Huai's orders.
Lu Huai was the culprit.
He would not let go of someone who wanted him dead.
"Duan Lingtian, calm down, calm down! Don't be rash … Lu Huai's death is not to be regretted, but there's no need for you to ruin your own life because of Lu Huai. "
Lu Bai's breathing quickened as he continued to persuade him.
"Ruin my own life?"
Duan Lingtian raised an eyebrow.
"No matter what, Lu Huai is still a direct descendant of our Northern Mountain's Lu Clan … If you kill him, it's equivalent to slapping our Lu Clan's face! Everyone in the Lu Clan will kill you at all costs! "
Lu Bai hurriedly nodded and voiced his concerns.
Upon hearing this, Duan Lingtian fell silent. His eyes gleamed as though he was thinking about something.
At the same time, the atmosphere became extremely tense. Everyone's eyes were trained on Duan Lingtian. It was as though they wanted to know what decision Duan Lingtian would make.
Kill Lu Huai?
Or not kill him?
"I wonder if this Duan Lingtian will really kill the Lu Clan's Third Young Master or not …"
Many people spoke softly, and their voices were filled with doubts.
"He knows that he'll definitely die if he kills the Lu Clan's Third Young Master … I don't think he'll dare to kill him."
"I think so too."
…
Most of them felt that Duan Lingtian would not dare to kill Lu Huai.
After all, if Lu Huai died, Duan Lingtian would not be able to live as well.
If they were in Duan Lingtian's shoes, they would not dare to kill Lu Huai.
In their opinion, their lives were more important than their lives.
His life was more important than anything else. There was no need to throw away his life for a moment of anger.
"Cough cough … You don't dare to kill me … You don't dare to kill me!"
At this moment, Lu Huai, who was lifted up by the neck by Duan Lingtian, coughed twice. A smug expression appeared on his pale face as he stared at Duan Lingtian with disdain.
"Are you sure … I don't dare to kill you?"
Duan Lingtian, who seemed to be deep in thought, regained his senses when he heard Lu Huai's provocative words.
He tightened his grip on Lu Huai's neck.
"Cough … Cough cough … You … What are you doing?!"
Duan Lingtian tightened his grip, making it difficult for Lu Huai to breathe. Lu Huai's eyes narrowed as he struggled to break free.
"Duan Lingtian! No! "
Lu Bai's expression changed drastically when he saw this.
"Duan Lingtian, you better think this through … If you kill the Third Young Master, you won't be able to survive!"
Lu Sou advised.
"Young Master!"
At this moment, Xiong Quan was more or less affected by the surrounding atmosphere. He looked at Duan Lingtian worriedly and advised, "There's no need to put yourself in danger for him."
"The Northern Mountain's Lu Clan has a history of 10,000 years …"
Duan Lingtian did not seem to hear Lu Bai, Lu Sou, and Xiong Quan's advice. Instead, he muttered to himself and paused for a moment.
Then, he turned around and looked at Lu Bai before he asked, "In the history of the Lu Clan, has there ever been anyone who managed to survive after killing a direct descendant of the Lu Clan?"
"Yes."
Although Lu Bai did not know why Duan Lingtian asked this, he nodded his head anyway.
"Who are they?"
