Thinking of this, Yang An stood still. With one hand on his back, he pushed away a junior brother from the same faction and stared at Yan Li with a gloomy expression. "How dare you kill a disciple of my Five Elements Courtyard! You must be prepared to pay with your life. I'd like to see whether the Sword Court will make a big fuss over a thief who killed a fellow disciple!" After he finished speaking, he mobilized his essential Qi, and the Law Domain that he had trained for many years naturally appeared. The sky above the training field was soon covered with dark clouds, and the wind blew violently. Amidst the rumbling sounds, drops of lightning fell from the sky.
"Hahaha, you can rest in peace if you die under Senior Brother Yang's Fire and Thunder Battle Formation!" The surrounding disciples were reassured, thinking that with Yang An's cultivation of the Insight State, it was more than enough to take care of Yan Li.
Yan Li casually tossed the remaining chicken bone out of his hand. Like a dragon entering the sea, it shot towards the disciple who spoke like a bolt of lightning. Along the way, it was like a string of pearls passing through a string, like a few drops of thunder rain. Just as the disciple started laughing, it entered his mouth. Feeling a foreign object enter his throat, he groaned and clutched his neck. His eyes bulged out, and then with a bang, his head exploded into minced meat. The other disciples' expressions changed, and they scattered in all directions in panic. Then, they gritted their teeth and turned to face Yan Li, thinking that if they were the ones who spoke just now, would they still be alive? They glared at Yan Li with extreme hatred, as if they had an irreconcilable feud with him.
Yang An was first enraged, then shocked. His opponent's control over sword Qi had truly reached the pinnacle. Not only was it not suppressed by his Law Domain, but it could even be used to its fullest potential. However, it was precisely because of this that he had to kill Yan Li. Otherwise, who in the Five Elements Court could stop him in the future? He suddenly understood. As the saying goes, the tallest tree in the forest is the first to be destroyed by the wind. Yan Li, you can only blame yourself for being too sharp and showing off in the Demon Buster Conference. That's why you ended up like this.
"If I don't kill you, I'm not a man! Divine Reflection Mirror … "
Yang An's thunderous roar echoed in the sky above the Fire Courtyard. "Heavenly Punishment!"
All of the thunderstorm began to burn. With a "xiu" sound, it dragged out a long tail of fire, fiercely falling like a meteor as it violently shot towards Yan Li. As if they could sense each other, the flashing thunderbolts attracted each other. Front, back, left, right, and all directions, they quickly interweaved into a huge net. The moment it covered Yan Li, it suddenly turned into a round mirror. Wherever it could reflect, it would burst out with intense thunderbolts. Countless thunderbolts were about to erase Yan Li's existence in an instant.
However, at a certain moment, everything stopped.
"One strike …" Li Ya slashed forward, and countless sword auras were born in the raging waves. In an instant, they gathered into one and turned into a dazzling ray of sword light. As it broke through the Divine Reflection Mirror, it extended into the endless horizon.
During this process, a portion of the Sword Qi scattered out. About twenty disciples of the Five Elements Academy in the surroundings were all beheaded. Even when they died, they did not know what had happened.
A huge hole was created in the leaden clouds, and it scattered in all directions, just like Yang An's body.
Yang An was horrified to find that when his Law Domain was broken, his Source Sea had somehow shattered. His vital qi was constantly flowing out of his major acupoints, just like his life force. He collapsed powerlessly. Seeing Yan Li approaching him step by step, he thought that even if he survived, he would become a cripple. Desolation and hatred filled his heart. He gritted his teeth and roared, "Even if I die, you won't have an easy time!"
"My life or not has nothing to do with yours." Yan Li lowered his head to look at Yang An. "Where are my things?"
"You risked being convicted to break out of prison to find me. Those things must be very important to you." A sly smile appeared on Yang An's face. "But, why should I give them to you?" He already had no desire to live, and was not afraid of offending Yan Li.
"Then die." Yan Li moved his wrist, and Li Ya was about to slash across Yang An's neck.
"Wait!" Yang An's body trembled. He thought that he had already seen through life and death, but at this moment, it was incomparably intense. He completely did not understand why his psychological changes would be so repetitive. He also did not expect that the other party did not have any intention of extorting him, as if he had already predicted this result. "Why … why don't you continue asking me?" He lowered his gaze and stared at the blood-stained Li Ya. He gradually understood that even if he was a cripple, it was better than sinking into eternal darkness. With his identity and savings, he could be a happy rich man anywhere he went. He would not need to endure the pain of cultivation, and would only be left with enjoyment. In any case, even if he continued to cultivate, he would not be able to live as long as the world, right?
"Are you going to tell me or not?" Yan Li said.
"If I tell you, will you spare my life?" Yang An said with a trace of hope.
"Yes." Yan Li said.
Joy appeared on Yang An's face. "It's Senior Brother Liu … It's Liu Tang who asked me to take your things. They're all in his hands. You just need to look for him!"
Yan Li picked up Li Ya and turned around to leave.
Yang An was startled. He saw that Yan Li had walked for a while, then stopped there. Yan Li's face turned ashen. He thought that it was normal for the other party to go back on his word after suffering such a great humiliation. Suddenly, he felt a pain on his back. He lowered his head and saw a ridged shuttle piercing through his chest. How could he not recognize their Five Elements Court's unique hidden weapon, Lightning Shuttle? He could not help but let out a bitter laugh. He finally understood why Yan Li had let him go.
"It's hard to like smart people." Liu Tang's signature cold voice came from behind him.
Yan Li slowly turned around. Liu Tang pulled out the Lightning Shuttle from Yang An's corpse and shook off the blood. He did not even look at Yang An's face, which was filled with grievances. He played with the shuttle and said with a faint smile, "But you're still not smart enough. If you were smart enough, you wouldn't have escaped. So there's still something to admire about you."
Liu Tang, ranked right behind Xue Kuang on the Heavenly Star List. He was the first disciple of the Five Elements Court. His precious weapon was the Mountain Rain Seal. It was calm when it was not used, but when it was used, it would be as powerful as a thunderbolt.
Information about Liu Tang flashed through Yan Li's mind. There were not many rumors about this person. It was obvious that he was very secretive. It was hard to guess what this kind of person was thinking. "I didn't expect it to be so effective." He said slowly.
"Yes, it's really amazing." Liu Tang praised.
"These people, including Yang An, were all killed by me." Yan Li said.
"Of course. I'm the first disciple of the Five Elements Court. How could I harm a fellow disciple?" Liu Tang said.
"You didn't expect me to have a precious weapon. So even if I didn't have the Ten Rosary Beads, I could still escape." Yan Li said.
"Like I said, you're very smart." Liu Tang said.
"But there's one thing that you didn't notice." Yan Li said.
"Oh?" Liu Tang said.
"Since I could kill Xue Kuang, I can naturally kill you." Yan Li said.
