A Venerated Expert Intervenes
Yi Buyan was dead!
No one could have expected that Yi Buyan would actually be killed by someone.
What was even more unexpected was that he'd been killed by a newbie who was only initial level emperor realm!
The crowd reacted differently when they saw Yi Buyan's lifeless body.
For example, the senior students all revealed astounded expressions. It was to the extent that their eyes were filled with terror and shock when they looked at the figure on the martial arts arena.
Who would've thought that Yi Buyan, who'd held a huge advantage a second ago, would die a horrible death in the arena in the next?
All of those new disciples were extremely excited, and they wanted to cheer. However, they forcefully swallowed their words when they saw the furious expression on the Exalt Realm expert's face.
"Dong Yu, do you know what you're doing?!"
The Venerated Realm cultivator roared furiously. His voice reverberated throughout North Vast Hall and drew everyone's attention.
After seeing Yi Buyan's tragic death in the arena, they more or less understood why he was angry.
"Of course I know what I'm doing."
Dong Yu remained standing in front of the enraged Venerated Realm cultivator, his voice indifferent.
It was obvious that he wanted to protect Qin Yichen.
Perhaps he was the only one present who understood Qin Yichen's importance.
Pill refinement aside, the fact that Yi Buyan was an empyrean cultivator was worth his time.
The main reason why empyrean cultivators were so difficult to achieve was because their mental strength couldn't keep up. Once their mental strength fell behind, it would be difficult to bring out the full might of an empyrean cultivator.
However, not only did the young man in front of him not fall behind in terms of mental strength, he was even stronger than the Venerated Realm cultivator.
This was a true empyrean cultivator!
Dong Yu knew very well how important a true empyrean cultivator was to the sacred land.
"Dong Yu, do you know that Yi Buyan is Hallmaster Xu's subordinate?!"
The Venerated Realm cultivator asked coldly. He sweated profusely when he thought about how that important person would punish him after learning of Yi Buyan's death in North Vast Hall.
This should've been a wonderful task.
As long as he protected Yi Buyan, he might've been favored by that important person and even had a chance to enter the inner sect. Who would've thought that such a huge accident would occur?
"Hallmaster Xu?!"
"My God, could it be that the rumor is true? Yi Buyan has been chosen by a big shot of the inner sect and is going to be taken in as a disciple …"
"This is bad. That great figure might be the Palace Master of the Vast North Hall!"
"This newbie is dead for sure. No one can protect him!"
The Taihao Sacred Ground had four Inner Halls. The four Hall Masters were the four pillars of the Sacred Ground. Each one of them was extremely powerful.
As for Palace Master Xu, as the Palace Master of the Vast North Palace, his martial prowess was naturally the strongest amongst the four Palace Masters. Latest Fastest Update
But now, Qin Yichen had actually killed the person he valued, which was almost equivalent to not putting him, the lord of the Temple, in his eyes.
Dong Yu's expression changed slightly.
Obviously, he knew this, which was why he chose to go to the inner sect to get reinforcements.
"Dong Yu, if you personally kill that kid now, then go to Hall Master Xu and offer a humble apology, then perhaps Hall Master Xu will spare your life. Otherwise …."
The Honourable Realm expert's voice was cold as he looked at Qin Yichen in the arena as though he was looking at a dead man.
However, Dong Yu remained unmoved. He stood in front of the Honourable Realm expert and said indifferently, "Today, with me, Dong Yu, around, no one can take him away!"
However, he was secretly anxious in his heart.
The Vast North Hall must have received news that something had happened here. If the experts from the inner sect rushed over, even he would not be able to protect Qin Yichen.
He could only pray that the elders of the Vast South Hall would see the elixir as soon as possible.
In the arena.
Qin Yichen looked coldly at the scene below the arena.
When he heard Hall Master Xu's name, he could not help but frown.
However, when he saw Yi Buyan's mutated Martial Soul, he was not too surprised.
A mutated Martial Soul was too rare, so it was normal for the Hall Master to take a fancy to it.
Even though he knew now, he did not regret killing Yi Buyan!
If Yi Buyan had only defeated Li Yuanba, he would have nothing to say. However, it was obvious that Yi Buyan wanted to kill Li Yuanba to prevent future trouble.
Leaving such a person alive would definitely be a hidden danger!
However, when he saw that Dong Yu, the deacon of the outer sect, was still standing in front of him, he felt grateful to Dong Yu.
If Dong Yu had not stopped the Honourable Realm expert, perhaps he would not even have had the chance to kill Yi Buyan.
"Humph!"
The Honourable Realm expert snorted coldly and looked at Dong Yu from the corner of his eyes. "Dong Yu, you think too highly of yourself. You can't stop me!"
He had to bring the kid's corpse in the arena to Hall Master Xu to ask for forgiveness. Otherwise, he would be punished!
"Boom …"
As he spoke, a powerful aura spread out from his body. It was like a tsunami as it rolled out. The surrounding onlookers were all sent flying. Even those with lower cultivation levels fell miserably.
"Dong Yu, you're courting death. Don't blame me!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he raised his palm and condensed a ball of terrifying energy before he smashed it down on Dong Yu.
If it was any other time, he would definitely not offend Dong Yu, the deacon of the South Ocean Palace, over such a small matter. However, he could not care less at this moment.
"Boom! … "
As an explosion resounded, a wave of energy swept out from between him and Dong Yu like a tsunami. The surrounding arenas collapsed and were destroyed.
"Humph."
Dong Yu only grunted as he was blasted back. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth as he crashed heavily into the arena that Qin Yichen was on.
"Deacon."
Qin Yichen looked at him worriedly.
"Don't come out. I'm fine!"
Dong Yu forcefully swallowed the mouthful of blood in his throat. Then, an equally terrifying Mental Energy spread out. Not only did he not retreat, he even took the initiative to attack.
He was an alchemist, so he was inferior to the Exalt Realm expert before him. However, he couldn't retreat right now, nor could he move aside. Because Qin Yichen would definitely be unable to survive if he did.
"You're courting death!"
The Honorable Realm expert was truly enraged when he saw Dong Yu pestering him. Under his control, the shattered rocks broke free from the gravitational force and gathered towards his palm.
In the blink of an eye, a rock the size of a small mountain floated above his palm. Then, the small mountain that carried the power of his inner Yuan pressed down on Dong Yu and Qin Yichen.
"Oh no!"
Dong Yu's expression changed when he saw the small mountain pressing down on him. He wanted to protect Qin Yichen, but it was too late. He could only spread out his Mental Energy and barely stop the small mountain's momentum.
"Boom! … "
