Jiang Shijian stared coldly at Lin Yun. "What a glib and talkative fellow! How much did the Yun family give you for you to absolve the Yun family of their crimes? "
Jiang Shijian ordered the patrolling soldiers beside him, "Take down this guy who is spouting nonsense and spreading lies to mislead people!"
"Yes, sir!" The two patrolmen cupped their fists and leaped from their horses, drawing their swords as they charged at Lin Yun.
Although the two patrolmen were wearing guard uniforms, they were actually not real patrolmen. Instead, they were disguised by the Jiang Clan's deacons.
The two Jiang family deacons were eighth-level martial warriors.
Yun Xiaoyao naturally recognized the two deacons and knew that with Lin Yun's current abilities, he was still no match for the two deacons. If he were to leave them be, Lin Yun would definitely be in danger.
When the two deacons leaped from their horses, Yun Xiaoyao was prepared to stop them.
However, before Yun Xiaoyao could act, Lin Yun charged at the two deacons at an even faster speed.
"Come back!" Yun Xiaoyao hurriedly called out to Lin Yun, but it was too late.
Or rather, Lin Yun's speed was too fast!
In the blink of an eye, Lin Yun's figure appeared between the two deacons.
Before anyone could see clearly what had happened, the two deacons were sent flying with a muffled sound. They crashed into the patrolling army behind them and scattered the patrolling army.
Boos rang out from the crowd.
Everyone was in awe of Lin Yun's speed.
The Jiang family, on the other hand, was completely stunned.
As members of the Jiang family, they knew the capabilities of the two deacons better than anyone else.
The two deacons had reached the realm of eighth-level martial warriors at such a young age. Although they could not be compared to Kang Nam-gun, they were still considered geniuses in the Jiang family.
Although they were only eighth-level martial warriors, they were able to fight against ninth-level martial warriors with mediocre aptitudes.
These two powerful people were killed by this young man in an instant. It was hard to imagine how terrifying this young man's strength was!
Even Yun Xiaoyao had not expected Lin Yun's abilities to be so formidable.
Yun Xiaoyao could still clearly remember the scene when Lin Yun was ambushed by the steward of the martial house when he left the Yu State Martial House.
The Martial House Deacon was only a Ninth Grade Martial Warrior. Compared to these two Deacons, he wasn't much stronger. If the two deacons joined hands, the Martial House deacon might not be a match for them.
In the past, Lin Yun wasn't a match for the Martial House Deacon at all. But now, Lin Yun killed the two Martial House Deacons in an instant.
It was easy to imagine how great the gap between them was.
Yun Xiaoyao could not help but gasp at the thought.
It was hard for him to imagine what Lin Yun had experienced during the time he left Yuzhou City, including Lin Yun.
Jiang Shijian pointed at Lin Yun and said righteously, "Good lad! How dare you attack a patrol in public! This is a blatant violation of the kingdom's laws!"
He pretended to be calm, but he was secretly shocked at Lin Yun's current strength.
He had initially thought that Lin Yun had escaped from Jiang Wuying's hands.
Now, it seemed that it was hard to say who had escaped from whom.
Perhaps even Jiang Wuying had fallen in Lin Yun's hands!
It had only been a short while since they last met, but Lin Yun had grown to such an extent. If he was given a few more years, he would turn the world upside down!
Jiang Shijian's eyes flashed with murderous intent at the thought.
This young man must not be allowed to live!
"You who despise the kingdom's laws, I will punish you on behalf of the kingdom's laws!" Jiang Shijian bellowed and leaped from the back of his horse. He drew the sword from his back in mid-air and swung it at Lin Yun.
Lin Yun was Jiang Shijian's biggest obstacle in dealing with the Yun family. Now that Jiang Shijian had a reason to deal with Lin Yun, how could he let Lin Yun go?
Seeing Jiang Shijian make a move himself, the people present were shocked.
What kind of person was Jiang Shijian?
As the general of the patrol, even when he went out of the city to suppress bandits, he only commanded from the sidelines and rarely took action himself.
Now, however, he had disregarded his status and attacked a young man in public!
It was evident how unusual this young man was.
This time, Yun Xiaoyao was already prepared. When Jiang Shijian made his move, he moved as well.
Just as Jiang Shijian's sword was about to land, Yun Xiaoyao appeared in front of Lin Yun and blocked Jiang Shijian's attack with the sword in his hand.
Clang!
Accompanied by the sound of metal clashing, the moment the swords in both men's hands collided, countless streams of sword Qi shot out in all directions, carving out ghastly cuts on the ground.
Immediately after, Jiang Shijian and Yun Xiaoyao thrust their swords dozens of times, exchanging dozens of blows with each other.
In the blink of an eye, the ground within a ten-meter radius was filled with crisscrossing cuts, becoming unrecognizable.
The crowd was secretly amazed by the terrifying strength of both men and kept retreating, deeply afraid that they would be caught up in the fight.
Lin Yun stood calmly in the area where the two men were fighting. From the beginning to the end, he did not even move half a step back. Even the expression on his face did not change in the slightest.
After a brief exchange, both men retreated a few meters at the same time. Then, a terrifying burst of vital Qi erupted and formed their martial souls behind them.
Jiang Shijian's martial soul was a diamond-studded sword. The body of the sword glowed with a blue light; it was obviously an Earth Rank martial soul.
On the other hand, Yun Xiaoyao's martial soul was a giant cloud crane. The surface of the cloud crane glowed with a green light; it was obviously a Black Rank martial soul.
After activating his martial soul, Jiang Shijian thrust his sword at Yun Xiaoyao from a few meters away.
The sword in his hand elongated rapidly the moment it was thrust. The tip of the sword was inches away from Yun Xiaoyao's heart in the blink of an eye.
This was the ability of Jiang Shijian's martial soul, the 'Wishful Sword'.
The 'Wishful Sword' allowed one to control the length of a metal weapon at will, allowing the weapon to extend and retract at an extremely fast speed.
Just as the sword was about to pierce him, Yun Xiaoyao swayed, his feet moving horizontally in the air to avoid the blade. Then, his entire body rose into the air with the wind.
Yun Xiaoyao's martial soul, the 'Wind Cloud Crane', had the ability to control air currents.
Not only could this ability allow Yun Xiaoyao to walk in the air, but he could also use high-pressure air as a weapon to attack his enemies directly.
After he floated into the air, Yun Xiaoyao waved his hand casually and released several high-pressure air blades that rained down from the area where Jiang Shijian was.
With a wave of the sword in Jiang Shijian's hand, a beam of green sword energy formed in mid-air, dispersing the air blades that came at him.
Some of the remnant Sword Qi landed on the floor of the street, leaving a shocking cut on the floor.
