Standing amidst space, Lin Hanhua simultaneously extended his hands, obstructing Kang Ping whilst obstructing Yan Zhaoge.
The gazes of Yan Zhaoge and Kang Ping both hardened as they felt this to be out of their expectations.
Lin Hanhua had remained silent all this while, as if he had already decided to watch from the sidelines and not interfere in the battle between the two sides.
At this moment, he suddenly acted and intercepted both of them. What was the reason for this?
Kang Ping frowned slightly: "Shadow Mountain Lin, what exactly do you want?"
There was no abnormality in Lin Hanhua's expression as he said calmly, "A Merging Avatar Martial Saint who is able to attempt to flee from the hands of an Immortal Bridge Martial Saint. This Lin wants to see what heights such an outstanding youth can attain in the future."
"Such a genius, I will protect him. If you want to fight, then fight with the sword in my hand."
Lin Hanhua glanced at Kang Ping, "You possess outstanding strength. If you were at the eighth level of the Martial Saint realm like me, you would be a good opponent. Victory or defeat would still be unknown. Still, the current you is not my match."
Kang Ping's eyes narrowed into slits. "Just because you value talent?"
Lin Hanhua said calmly, "You and I are both sword practitioners, so our spirit is stronger than that of ordinary warriors."
"I don't want to kill you, but if you fight to the death and refuse to retreat, then I can only cut you down with my sword. If I really have to pay with my life after this, I don't care. Ever since I started learning the sword, I have always felt fear in my heart, but my sword has never been slow because of this."
Lin Hanhua looked Kang Ping up and down. "Don't take any chances. You don't stand a chance."
"You shouldn't have brought the high-grade sacred artifact, the Cloud Circulating Heavenly Light Sword that Shen Lingzi left for you, right? Even if he did, it would be useless. "
A treasured light suddenly shone from his body. Sword Qi soared into the heavens, shocking everyone's soul.
Seeing this, Yan Zhaoge and Kang Ping immediately knew that the Lin Hanhua before them was accompanied by a high-grade Sacred Artifact!
Lin Hanhua said, "You still have fellow disciples, right? If they come with the Cloud Revolving Heavenly Light Sword, you might have a chance. "
Kang Ping was expressionless. Lin Hanhua's words had undoubtedly made his stance clear.
He wanted to protect Yan Zhaoge to the death. If Kang Ping did not retreat, it would be a bloody battle to the death.
Lin Hanhua no longer considered what the consequences would be.
This sudden change caused Kang Ping to be puzzled no matter how he thought about it. He didn't know what exactly caused Lin Hanhua to suddenly change his mind.
The simple love of talent was too weak a reason.
"Shadow Mountain Lin, as you have said, we are all sword practitioners." Kang Ping said slowly.
Although he did not know why Lin Hanhua had suddenly changed his mind, Kang Ping's Sword Qi grew even stronger. He did not have the slightest intention of retreating.
Blocked by Lin Hanhua, Yan Zhaoge did not attempt to break free as he simply halted, his gaze shifting between Lin Hanhua and Kang Ping.
"Mr. Kang, why do you have to do this?" At this moment, a voice sounded beside him.
A young man who looked to be in his thirties appeared before Yan Zhaoge and the others.
While he did not assume much of a stance, his aura was still tyrannical to the extreme, allowing others to easily ascertain his cultivation base as an Immortal Bridge Martial Saint.
The young man first bowed to Lin Hanhua. "Eldest Martial Brother."
When Lin Hanhua saw this youth, he nodded slightly and said, "Junior Martial Brother Mu."
Looking at the newcomer, Kang Ping was silent.
The other party was called Mu Jun. He was someone who had returned to the Royal Reed Sea alongside him and Chen Zhiliang, a disciple of the Southeastern Exalt's lineage like Lin Hanhua, Zheng Ming and Chen Zhiliang. His cultivation base far surpassed theirs as he was an early Immortal Bridge Martial Saint like Kang Ping.
He was one of the most outstanding disciples of the Southeastern Exalt's lineage alongside Lin Hanhua.
Looking at Yan Zhaoge, Mu Jun smiled, "This must be Little Friend Yan Zhaoge? I heard junior apprentice-brother Zheng and junior apprentice-brother Chen mention you earlier. You are indeed a genius who surpasses all expectations. "
Exiting the Myriad Dragon Palace, Yan Zhaoge smiled, "You overpraise me."
Kang Ping said slowly, "Green Plains Sword King, this Kang has no intention of offending the Southeastern Exalt and Golden Court Mountain. Still, I must avenge my wife's death. While I am untalented, I am not someone who can be easily bullied."
Mu Jun gazed at Lin Hanhua, the two communicating through their gazes as they seemed to be secretly communicating via sound transmission.
Lin Hanhua remained brimming with killing intent, revealing his sharpness as one was hard pressed to look straight at him.
After a while, Mu Jun retracted his gaze, chuckling as he appeared amicable, "Every injustice has its perpetrator, and every debt has its debtor. According to what I know, the one who truly caused your wife's death seems to be someone else, not this Little Friend Yan before us."
Kang Ping said mildly, "When this Kang came to meet the Shadow Mountain Sword King, this Kang's two senior apprentice-uncles had already headed to the Sun Moon Peak of the Virtuous Spirit Region."
The Sun Moon Peak of the Virtuous Spirit Region was precisely where the Radiant Light Sect was located.
Hearing his words, the corners of Yan Zhaoge's mouth twitched.
He Dongcheng and Gu Zhang, two Immortal Bridge Martial Saints, had both arrived, and they likely also possessed the high-grade Sacred Artifacts, the Cloud Circulating Heavenly Light Sword and the King Xuan Spear.
The Radiant Light Sect was doomed.
Kang Ping's icy cold gaze swept across Yan Zhaoge, "Yan Zhaoge, the Radiant Light Sect's Luo Zhiyuan, the North Sea Sword Pavilion's Gu Hong-None of them can even think of escaping!"
Mu Jun said, "Golden Court Mountain once said that the matter of your junior apprentice-brother Liao Zheng would not be pursued any further."
"You still know when to advance and when to retreat even now."
Mu Jun's tone changed, "Still, your wife's death was really because she first tried to plot against this Little Friend Yan for the sake of past enmity, thus leading to the subsequent events."
"Of course, your wife was still unaware of the decision of Golden Court Mountain back then. Still, if we carefully consider it, it was still you who provoked her first."
Kang Ping's gaze hardened, "Green Plains Sword King means that Golden Court Mountain wants to protect this person?"
Mu Jun shook his head, "My words naturally cannot represent my Master's. Still, my eldest apprentice-brother's intentions are my intentions."
Kang Ping fell silent, his expression turning solemn.
With Lin Hanhua and Mu Jun joining hands, he had no hope at all.
The other party also possessed a high-grade Sacred Artifact at the very least. If they really fought, they might even have been able to capture him alive. Even if he wanted to go all out, he might not have been able to do so. In the end, he had been rebuffed for no reason at all.
The difference in strength between the two sides was now completely unbalanced.
He had not thought that he would directly meet Yan Zhaoge at Lin Hanhua's place, having been somewhat unprepared.
As his rage gradually subsided, Kang Ping's gaze turned even colder and sharper.
Even if the net did not break and the fish died, there would naturally be someone who would settle the score with the net afterwards.
Yet, if the fish did not die and was caught in the net for nothing before being sent back alive, that existence behind him would also lose face and be disappointed in him. At that time, there would truly be no hope for revenge at all.
Kang Ping was silent for a long time before he inhaled deeply, turning and leaving.
Under such circumstances, there was no point in saying anything as he would only lose face for nothing.
Still, whether it was Yan Zhaoge, Lin Hanhua or Mu Jun, all of them knew that Kang Ping would definitely not let the matter rest just like that.
Mu Jun sighed slightly, "He might first go to the Radiant Light Sect, but he might also be heading straight for the North Sea Sword Pavilion's Gu Hong."
"The North Sea Sword Pavilion helped junior apprentice-brother Zheng and the others in apprehending those who trespassed on the southern Blazing Heaven Territory's borders. Should I go over and take a look?"
Lin Hanhua shook his head, "Gu Hong is also an Immortal Bridge Martial Saint."
Mu Jun nodded, glancing at Yan Zhaoge through the corner of his eye as he sent via sound transmission, "Eldest apprentice-brother, while I do not understand why you are so insistent on this, you had best inform Master as soon as possible."
Lin Hanhua answered, "Yes, I will."
Mu Jun smiled and nodded towards Yan Zhaoge before leaving.
Now, only Yan Zhaoge and Lin Hanhua remained there.
Lin Hanhua gazed at Yan Zhaoge, not speaking for a long time.
Yan Zhaoge's heart jolted slightly before he heard Lin Hanhua slowly ask, "Little Friend Yan, you cultivate in the sword dao of the Prime Clear lineage?"
