At this critical moment, Nangong Cang had no choice but to fight. If he didn't, he would fall off the cliff and die a horrible death!
Nangong Cang used the tip of his sword to tap on the Devil's Blade. The long sword, which was as thick as a chopstick, was bent into an arch. Nangong Cang used the force to jump up into the sky!
Even though he could jump up, he still couldn't escape from Ling Yun's attack range. Therefore, Nangong Cang didn't want to escape. He wanted to attack!
Soul Reaping Strike! It wasn't just one strike, but nine swift and violent strikes in an extremely short period of time. Every strike was only for defense, not for attack, only for killing the enemy, not for self-preservation!
Nangong Cang waved his sword rapidly, and the silver sword rays filled the sky like nine waterfalls. They carried a magnificent murderous aura and completely enveloped Ling Yun!
"Good swordsmanship!"
Ling Yun was enveloped by the nine sword rays. He moved around in an extremely narrow area. At the same time, he used the Devil's Blade to slash in all directions. However, he didn't retreat at all!
"Heaven and Earth Measurement!"
Nangong Cang used his ultimate move. At this moment, Ximen De also rushed over. He used the Ximen Family's ultimate move without hesitation!
The black, two-foot-long Heaven Measurement Ruler actually seemed to be "measuring" Ling Yun's back. The black light was like a black dragon, dancing around Ling Yun's back with a murderous aura!
Nangong Cang and Ximen De attacked Ling Yun from the front and back. In an instant, the sword rays, the blade shadows, and the ruler shadows all mixed together. A thrilling battle unfolded on this precipice!
"Die!"
Shangguan Sheng also rushed over at this moment. He didn't hold back at all. He used all his strength to use his special move, Soul Reaping Strike. His sharp hooks slashed at Ling Yun's shoulders at the same time!
The three masters used their special moves to attack Ling Yun at the same time!
"You guys didn't disappoint me. However, this isn't enough to kill me!"
Ling Yun was still fighting with ease. He roared and slashed nine times consecutively, breaking all nine of Nangong Cang's sword rays. At the same time, he grabbed Ximen De's Heaven Measurement Ruler with his left hand and placed it on his shoulder without hesitation!
Dang Dang!
With two crisp sounds, Shangguan Sheng's double hooks hooked onto Ximen De's Sky-Measuring Ruler!
While Ximen was still in a daze, Ling Yun took the opportunity to launch a powerful kick at Ximen's abdomen from an unbelievable angle!
"Bang!"
Ximen De let go, and his body flew back like a kite with its string cut. At the same time, he let out a miserable shriek as an arrow of blood sprayed out of his mouth.
"You should also let go!"
As Ling Yun kicked Ximen De away, he used his left hand to pull Shang Guansheng's body forward with the Heaven Measuring Ruler!
He turned around and swung his saber!
If Shangguan Sheng's Parting Hook was hooked onto Ling Yun's shoulders, he would definitely be able to remove both of Ling Yun's shoulders. Unfortunately, he was hooked onto Ximen De's Sky-Measuring Ruler.
Ling Yun's Devil's Blade had arrived before he could pull back the Heaven Measuring Ruler!
Shang Guan Sheng had no choice but to let go of his weapon and dodge Ling Yun's first attack!
"There's still one more!"
Ling Yun laughed coldly. Without waiting for the blade to finish its momentum, he flipped his wrist and slashed back. This time, it was even faster and fiercer!
"Ah!"
Shang Guansheng was unarmed now. He never expected Ling Yun to change his attack so quickly. In this critical moment, he could only use his palms to release two streams of True Qi towards the blade of the Devil's Blade!
"Swoosh!"
Nangong Cang didn't fall off the cliff, but he didn't go too far away. Seeing that Shang Guansheng was in trouble, he stepped on a tree branch and flew over again!
Soul-Chasing Blade!
It was the same move, but this time, it was coming from Ling Yun's back!
In the past, Ling Yun wouldn't have hesitated to use more than ten Fire Talismans to blow Nangong Cang up. However, he wanted a fair battle now.
Throughout the entire battle, he didn't even use his Yin and Yang Qi. He only used his strength and techniques to fight against the three of them.
This way, Nangong Cang's sneak attack from behind put pressure on Ling Yun. If he wanted to attack Shang Guansheng successfully, Ling Yun would definitely have to take two blows from Nangong Cang.
"Forget it!"
Ling Yun sighed suddenly. He quickly withdrew the Devil's Blade and used it to block Nangong Cang's long sword. However, he didn't let Shang Guansheng escape so easily.
As he turned around, Ling Yun threw a punch at Shang Guansheng's palms. Their fists and palms collided!
"Bang, bang!"
"Ding, ding, ding, ding, ding …"
The sound of True Qi colliding and the sound of weapons colliding rang out at the same time!
"Ah!" Shang Guansheng screamed in pain. The web between his thumb and index finger was torn again. His body flew backward and almost fell off the cliff.
Ling Yun hurriedly blocked Nangong Cang's long sword and used the momentum to fly back to the huge rock.
Although Ling Yun wasn't injured when he was attacked by the three of them at the same time, he had used up a large amount of True Qi. If he didn't land on the ground, he would have made a fool of himself.
"The three hidden families are indeed extraordinary."
After taking a deep breath, Ling Yun quietly looked at the three experts gathered together and said faintly.
"You are even more extraordinary!"
Among the three experts, only Nangong Cang still had a weapon in his hand. However, he was holding the hilt of his sword with both hands. His arms were trembling violently, and the web between his thumb and index finger was torn and bleeding.
Ximen De had been kicked by Ling Yun, and Shang Guansheng's True Qi had been obstructed by Ling Yun's punch. Both of them had suffered serious internal injuries.
Even though Nangong Cang wasn't injured, it was a close shave. Furthermore, he had given it his all. Only when he faced Ling Yun head-on did he realize how terrifying Ling Yun's every strike was. Every strike required him to use all his strength to block it!
Ling Yun held his blade and smiled faintly. He raised his hand and pointed at the corpses on the ground. "I have a habit when I fight. It can also be considered a principle. I don't like to be surrounded by too many people, and I'm not afraid of being surrounded …
Therefore, they will only die if they come forward. "
"Now, I'll give the three of you a chance to choose. Do you want to continue fighting me or leave? If you leave now, I, Ling Yun, will let you live. I definitely won't stop you."
Ling Yun first explained why he started killing people, then gave the three of them a chance.
The three experts were silent as they looked at each other.
In this world, there was a principle that applied everywhere. A person's strength could play a decisive role!
With strength, one would have the right to speak. Now, Ling Yun was still saying the same thing. However, to the three of them, it was no longer the same thing as before.
It felt different.
"You really didn't kill our son?" Nangong Cang suddenly raised his head and asked Ling Yun.
Ling Yun smiled and replied, "To be honest, it's really easy for me to kill all of you. Do you think there's a need for me to lie to all of you?"
Nangong Cang was speechless. The logic was clear, and there was no need for him to explain further.
"It seems like we're in the wrong this time …"
Nangong Cang felt apologetic as he spoke sincerely.
The strength that Ling Yun had displayed had already proved that he was an exceptional genius. If the three experts still didn't know their place, they would only be left with a dead end.
If Ling Yun couldn't defeat them, they would definitely interrogate him about the whereabouts of the Earth Emperor's Book. However, that was just wishful thinking now.
Regardless of whether the Earth Emperor's Book was with Ling Yun or not, they had already lost the right to fight for it.
Nangong Cang and the other two experts looked at each other and saw the sadness in each other's eyes. They said in unison, "Thank you for sparing our lives. Let's go!"
Ling Yun had displayed his valiant strength, so he already knew what they would choose. However, he said, "Wait!"
The three of them who had just turned around stopped immediately and looked at Ling Yun.
"Two things. First, I can understand the pain of losing your son. That's why I didn't kill you. However, if you still think of taking revenge on me or harming the people around me, I promise I'll wipe out your entire family!" Ling Yun said with a smile.
"Second, I hope that you will leave the Celestial Ridge immediately. If you still want to get involved in this mess, I will kill you without mercy if I see you here again."
Ling Yun smiled. His voice wasn't loud, and he didn't have any killing intent. However, after he said these two things, the three experts felt a chill in their hearts.
Shangguan Sheng suddenly said, "Don't worry, we will leave the Celestial Ridge immediately. As for tonight's incident, it was all because of us. It was our fault! You have already spared our lives, so we naturally won't talk about revenge anymore. This matter will end here. "
Ling Yun nodded and said, "I hope so." Then, he gently waved his hand.
Shangguan Sheng and Ximen De retrieved their weapons and took one last look at the corpses of their clansmen before disappearing into the dense forest.
Swoosh!
After the three of them left, Chester rushed down and stood beside Ling Yun. He asked in confusion, "Boss, why did you let them go?"
Ling Yun smiled and said, "From the fight just now, it seems that the Families of Prestige still have some morals."
The Shangguan Family, Ximen Family, and Nangong Family were all hidden families in China. They were on par with the Dongfang Family and the Dugu Family. Although they had ganged up on Ling Yun, their hands and feet were clean. Moreover, they were willing to risk their lives to save each other. This was something that Ling Yun admired.
Ling Yun cultivated the Heart Dao, so he did everything with his heart. Since he admired the three of them, he naturally wouldn't kill them.
There was another reason that Ling Yun didn't mention. It wasn't easy for the ancient martial arts practitioners in China to cultivate to this level. They didn't have a huge feud like the Chen Family and the Sun Family, so Ling Yun didn't have to fight them to the death.
Moreover, the sons of these three people weren't killed by Ling Yun.
"Boss, what about these corpses?"
"Leave them here. If I'm not wrong, they will definitely come to collect the corpses of their clansmen."
After saying that, Ling Yun raised his hand and pointed at the Sky Spear Peak. He said, "Let's go to the peak of the Sky Spear Peak and see if there are any more enemies coming to die tonight."
