It was noon and the giant Sun was shedding down warm sunlight.
However, Li Jian's heart was cold. Everyone's heart was cold as well. It was as if they had fallen into an icy hell.
Everyone clearly realized one thing. The Ling Xian before them was no longer the Heaven's Favorite from back then. He was now a powerhouse of the completion level!
Two years ago, Ling Xian was very powerful as well. Nobody from the two forces could stop him. Even Li Jian could not stop him. However, he was merely a foundational cultivator. He could be called a Heaven's Favorite, but he could not become a powerhouse.
Now that two years had passed, Ling Xian had finally entered the completion level. He had surpassed the younger generation and was now a powerhouse!
"No wonder you are fearless and dare to visit us in such a dominating manner …" Li Jian's face was dark. Even though he knew he was no opponent of Ling Xian's, he was the leader of the Ling Jian House. How could he show his fear now?
Ling Xian twirled the sword around and placed it on his back. He grinned, "Today, I came here to destroy the place. Of course, I have to choose the most dominating way and the most dominating way."
As soon as his voice trailed off, everyone stared deadly at Ling Xian as if they could spit out fire.
Cause trouble?
The most dominating manner?
Everyone was enraged. The Ling Jian House was incomparably powerful and was the uncrowned king of Shi Ao Island. Who dared to visit them in such a manner? Who would dare to say the words "smash the place" in such a nonchalant tone?
Yet before their eyes, Ling Xian had done it and said it.
His nonchalant attitude caused everyone in the Ling Jian Sect to be filled with killing intent!
BOOOM!
Waves of Qi rolled out of them. Everyone above the foundational level made a hand seal in an attempt to attack Ling Xian.
However, just as everyone was about to display their techniques, Li Jian extended his right arm and stopped them.
"Back off. You are no opponent of his."
Hearing this, everyone was unwilling. However, they knew very well that Li Jian was right.
Two years ago, they were no opponent of Ling Xian's. Now, they had no right to even fight against him!
"Ling Xian, just because your sword scratched my cheek doesn't mean I have lost." Li Jian's expression was dark. The sword in his hand was spitting out heavenly light and was full of killer's intent.
"Indeed, it can't be considered your loss." Ling Xian revealed a faint smile, "But, you lost to me at the first move. Do you still think you are an opponent of mine?"
"Whether it is or not, we will only know after we fight." Li Jian's expression was serious as he formed a hand seal. Immediately, the entire Ling Jian House shook!
Shua!
The sound of something tearing through the air resounded in succession. Seventeen huge swords flew out from the surrounding mountains, and then formed a strange sword formation that pressed down from the sky!
"Sword formation …"
Feeling the terrifying vibrations from the sky, Ling Xian raised an eyebrow. He thought to himself that it was no wonder they were the rulers of this land. However, there was no trace of fear on his face. Instead, a burning desire to fight flashed across his face.
Shua!
His eyes flickered and the Halberd of the Divine Warrior appeared. Then, Ling Xian manipulated his Golden Dan and the Halberd of the Divine Warrior towards the 17 swords!
Boom!
An infinite amount of heavenly light shot through the cloud. Under the support of the completion Qi, the Halberd of the Divine Warrior grew more and more terrifying. In an instant, it shattered the three swords. Then, Ling Xian once again exerted his strength and exploded with an even more ferocious amount of energy that destroyed the remaining swords!
However, the moment he destroyed the sword formation, a light gold sword suddenly dashed out with killer's intent!
Li Jian made his move. He had predicted that the sword formation would not be able to stop Ling Xian. Therefore, he waited for the right moment to kill Ling Xian!
"Hmmph, get the f * ck out of my way!"
Ling Xian coldly shouted. The Halberd of the Divine Warrior emitted an infinite amount of light that swept across the swords before him!
Dong!
After a crisp sound, Ling Xian was unharmed and did not retreat a single step.
On the other hand, Li Jian's body quivered and he stumbled back seven steps.
This scene once again made everyone fall into a state of shock.
Li Jian's expression was bitter as he sighed, "The undefeatable realm of the completion Dan truly has the ability to surpass others of the same level."
"Or else why would I come here?" The corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up. His Halberd of the Divine Warrior once again swung out, displaying the heavenly energy!
HOMMMM!
An invisible wave of energy howled through the air like a hurricane that shook the entire space!
"Break!"
Li Jian's expression changed. He quickly manipulated all his Qi and sent out a ray of light that destroyed the wave of energy before him.
In the next second, Ling Xian's silhouette appeared beside Li Jian like a ghost. The Sword of Extinction was aimed between Li Jian's brows.
Instantly, Li Jian's hair stood up. He knew that even if he blocks this attack, he would be heavily injured. Therefore, he displayed the Steps of the Sword in an attempt to dodge this attack.
However, why would Ling Xian let him do as he wished?
Raising his right hand, the Halberd of the Divine Warrior swept out and blocked Li Jian's path of retreat, forcing him to defend.
HOMMMM!
After an earth-shattering rumble, heaven and earth shook!
The Halberd of the Divine Warrior was inexhaustible and the Sword of Extinction could split open the sky. Now that the two of them were attacking, their power was unimaginable!
Instantly, Li Jian's expression changed. Even though he had displayed his strongest technique, he found it hard to defend against Ling Xian's prowess. He was instantly flung out.
Retch!
A mouthful of fresh blood sprayed into midair, signifying that the winner and the loser had been decided!
"This … I cannot believe it! The Supreme Headmaster lost so quickly! "
"My god, just how powerful is this person? How is it possible that the Supreme Headmaster lost after only a few moves? "
"It's over. Even the Supreme Headmaster has lost. Who else can stop this person?"
"It's completely over. Could it be that the Ling Jian House's thousand years of glory is going to be destroyed? And it's going to be destroyed by Ling Xian alone? "
Everyone's eyes widened. They glanced at Li Jian, who was puking out blood, and then at the silhouette in white. Their expressions were full of awe.
When they thought of the terrifying consequences, they felt chills all over their bodies and couldn't help but tremble.
Li Jian was the strongest powerhouse of the entire Ling Jian House. Now that he had lost, who else could stop Ling Xian's prowess?!
Everyone's face was pale as they lost their souls. It was as if they had lost their souls at that moment.
"Dammit!"
Li Jian's expression was dark. Even though he had predicted that he was no opponent of Ling Xian's. However, he didn't think he would lose so quickly and so thoroughly!
This made him feel a myriad of emotions. There was anger, there was unwillingness, there was humiliation, but most of all, there was bitterness.
Two years ago, Ling Xian could have fought against him, but in the end, he was forced into the realm of immortals. Yet now, he had lost to Ling Xian. Why wouldn't he feel bitter?
"I have lost. You can do whatever you want to me." Li Jian's heart was cold. Under everyone's gaze, he made a surprising move.
He floated in midair and slowly closed his eyes, as if waiting for Ling Xian's sword to cut off his head.
After waiting for a while, he didn't feel the coldness on his neck. He couldn't help but open his eyes and stare at Ling Xian in confusion.
"I am not going to accept your head."
Against Li Jian's confused stare, the corner of Ling Xian's lips curled up and he uttered out an arrogant statement.
"Look after your head. Someone will come for it sooner or later."
A soft voice arose. There was no disdain in it, but it was full of nonchalance.
Instantly, Li Jian's anger boiled and he felt extremely humiliated.
Look after his head?
Someone will come for it sooner or later?
Everyone's hair stood up in anger as well. They all summoned their Qi and wanted to chop Ling Xian into 300 pieces!
However, though they were angry, they were still rational. They all knew that even if they attacked together, they were no opponent of Ling Xian's. Therefore, they suppressed their anger and didn't make a move.
"Good, very good."
Li Jian's teeth were about to shatter from clenching. His heart was full of humiliation. Looking at the calm Ling Xian, he shouted, "I, Li Jian, have dominated Shi Ao Island for hundreds of years and have never been so humiliated. I lost to you, so you can kill me. But you cannot humiliate me like this! "
"You can think whatever you want. You can insult me, you can mock me. It's up to you."
Ling Xian's eyes flickered. The Divine Warrior and the Sword of Extinction disappeared, "I promised the Headmaster that I will not take your life."
Li Jian frowned and seemed to have understood something. He asked, "You mean, you want to leave my life for Zi Dong Lai's son and daughter?"
"That's right. You killed their father, so of course they will kill you to avenge you." Ling Xian spoke softly. His goal today was to warn the House of Ling Jian, he didn't plan on killing Li Jian.
Because he made a promise to Zi Dong Lai.
"Hahaha …"
Li Jian suddenly laughed out loud. But very quickly, his face darkened and he said in a threatening tone, "You are so confident that two immature children can kill me?"
"That has nothing to do with me. Whether or not I can kill you, time will tell." Ling Xian's expression was emotionless as he stared at the humiliated leader and stated his intention.
"The survivors of the Zi Yang House have been sent to other islands. There is no need to waste your energy searching."
Li Jian snickered, "You think I will believe you just because you say that?"
"It's up to you whether you want to believe me or not." Ling Xian's expression did not change, "I think you know very well that if those people were still on Shi Ao Island, I wouldn't be here to provoke them and spare your life."
Looking at the calm Ling Xian, Li Jian was uncertain. But deep down, he was 70 to 80 percent convinced.
Just like Ling Xian said, if those people were still on Shi Ao Island, he had no reason to provoke them and spare Li Jian's life. He also made it clear that someone was coming to take his life.
Therefore, wouldn't this completely infuriate Li Jian and force him to increase his efforts to find Zi Hua Shang and them?
Any normal person would think that way. Therefore, Li Jian believed it.
Not even in his dreams did he think that Ling Xian would do the exact opposite!
"Alright, I came here to vent my anger. Now that I have vented my anger, it is time for me to leave."
Then, Ling Xian waved at everyone and slowly turned around.
His white robe was fluttering in the wind as he sang an unknown song. Step by step, he walked into the distance. His relaxed and carefree demeanor made him look like he was taking a stroll in his own garden.
This caused everyone to clench their fists, and they felt extremely humiliated. However, despite everyone's anger, nobody dared to make a move against him!
This was because they were all scared out of their wits by Ling Xian.
How dominating was he to have crushed the Ling Jian House's door with one punch?!
He defeated Li Jian within a few moves and then left without anyone daring to stop him. How dominating was this?!
Without a doubt, from this moment on, that white robe has been imprinted into everyone's heart.
The name Ling Xian will become a shadow that the Ling Jian House cannot get rid of!
