When Xiao Kelin said that, everyone present was stunned. The old president was no longer around?
There had long been rumors that the old president and the few Grand Elders had disappeared, but they were only rumors. Even though the Heaven Amplification Trading Company had probed and tried to encroach on the Divine Secrets Trading Company, to which the Divine Secrets Trading Company showed weakness and tolerated, there were still many people in the Divine Secrets Trading Company who firmly believed that the old president had only left temporarily. He would one day return.
But today, this window paper that no one had ever seen through had been pierced by Xiao Kelin!
By saying those words in public, it could be said that he had taken drastic measures. He had completely destroyed Ji Shuiyan's last line of defense, causing many people who were loyal to the Divine Secrets Trading Company to waver.
The old president and the few Grand Elders were dead!?
Then, wasn't the Divine Secrets Trading Company finished?
How could they resist the Heaven Amplification Trading Company? Ignoring the Heaven Amplification Trading Company, they were not even Xiao Kelin and Gyangnian, who had betrayed the Divine Secrets Trading Company!
Many people looked at Ji Shuiyan, hoping that she would retort Xiao Kelin. However, Ji Shuiyan remained silent, as though she had silently acknowledged the truth.
This chilled their hearts. Was that really the case?
Ji Shuiyan looked coldly at Xiao Kelin. Ignoring everything else, just the folding fan in Xiao Kelin's hand had been forged with the help of the Divine Secrets Trading Company's financial resources. It had been handpicked with superior-grade Auric Essence and an artifact refinement master.
Xiao Kelin was extremely pleased with the fan. It was usually used to flaunt his elegance and could be used as a killing weapon against enemies. But now, the gentle-looking Xiao Kelin was more heartless than anyone else when it came to kicking a person while they were down.
"All of you are right. The Divine Secrets Trading Company is finished. Since it is destined to be destroyed, why don't you submit to the Heaven Amplification Trading Company? You might be able to leave something behind. It will be beneficial to you and us!"
"Miss, you should know the rules of Sun Burial Sandsea. A faction without an expert presiding over it is destined to be annexed by others!"
Xiao Kelin seemed to read the minds of the crowd as he waved his fan and spoke with conviction. However, just as his voice faded —
Suddenly, Xiao Kelin's vision turned into a blur. Dazzling golden beams flashed, filling his vision!
These dazzling golden lights all contained sharp killing intent!
Sword beams!?
The middle-aged scholar was shocked. He rapidly retreated, true essence revolving around his entire body. At the same time, he unfolded the folding fan in his hand and held it in front of his chest!
This folding fan of his was his proudest magic treasure. As the fan unfolded, countless blue ice crystals appeared on his body, completely protecting his body behind it.
Ice Crystal Wall!
Xiao Kelin cultivated the Law of Ice, so his attacks might be slightly weaker, but his defense could be said to be impenetrable.
But in the next moment, these golden rays struck the blue ice wall. Crackle! With a series of explosions, the ice wall shattered!
The golden light did not slow down and actually formed a golden divine sword.
Three-foot Passage Sword, Eternity and Instant!
Chi chi chi!
As the divine sword stabbed down, Xiao Kelin was scared out of his wits. He could not even care about his fan anymore and hurriedly threw it forward. At the same time, he touched his Space Ring, wanting to take out his life-saving trump card.
However, the sword beam was too fast. The Pure Yang Sword, which had fused with the space-time laws, completely ignored the distance between them. As the saying went, wherever the mind was, the sword was!
Peng!
With a loud explosion, Xiao Kelin's protective Yuan Qi did not even last a second before it exploded. The sword beam pulsed as the golden divine sword tore through the void, leaving behind a resplendent golden trajectory. It instantly penetrated Xiao Kelin's body twelve times, leaving behind twelve bloody holes!
Only then did Xiao Kelin take out two purple talismans from his Space Ring. However, he did not even have the time to activate them. He did not even have the time to think of activating them before he was sent flying with a tragic cry.
Pa!
Xiao Kelin slumped to the ground like a pile of rotten meat. His body was covered in sword wounds!
Of the twelve strikes, eleven had stabbed into Xiao Kelin's limbs, abdomen, and shoulders. He had deliberately avoided his vital points.
However, the final strike stabbed straight into Xiao Kelin's dantian. It tore through his dantian and shattered his Dao Palace. Xiao Kelin's body trembled as his face turned ashen!
He looked at his dantian in disbelief. His face was filled with horror and despair. With his Dao Palace destroyed, his cultivation was crippled!
And at that moment, the life-reaping sword beam streaked across the sky in a perfect arc before flying back into the sand boat.
Upon seeing this scene, everyone stared agape, unable to close their mouths for a long time.
The turn of events had happened too quickly!
A few seconds ago, Xiao Kelin was still in high spirits, but now, he was lying on the ground like a dead dog.
The mysterious person in the sand boat had instantly crippled Xiao Kelin, and from the beginning to the end, the person did not even show his face!
Who was it!?
Everyone held their breaths as they looked at the sand boat in horror. The sand boat was silently parked on the main road. It was completely empty.
A gentle breeze blew, causing the curtains on the sand boat's windows to flutter gently. They did not even know which window the sword beam had flown out from.
Just a moment ago, Xiao Kelin had said that a faction without an expert presiding over it was destined to be devoured by others. Yet, he had been crippled by the mysterious person in the sand boat!
That was a Dao Palace realm warrior, yet he was finished.
"Has the old president returned?" A guard loyal to the Divine Secrets Trading Company said excitedly.
However, someone shook his head and said, "Even the old president doesn't have such strength. Although Xiao Kelin is scum, his strength is still at the second-storey Dao Palace realm. How could the old president have the ability to instantly kill him?"
Everyone began a flurry of discussion. Instantly, the scene turned chaotic.
"Which expert is here?"
Advisor Yang gulped a mouthful of saliva. His expression was terrible but he still had the Heaven Amplification Trading Company backing him. His voice was still filled with confidence.
However, Gyangnian did not receive such treatment. His palms were covered in cold sweat. He knew very well that if not for Xiao Kelin's reply, he would have been the target of the attack!
Although his cultivation level was slightly higher than Xiao Kelin's, he was not much stronger because he had a shattered Dao fruit.
He was so close to being crippled by someone!
Warriors were accustomed to a lofty status. They had wealth, beauty, and a long lifespan at their fingertips. And all of this was given to them by their strength. Once they were crippled, it would be worse than death.
Upon thinking of this, Gyangnian felt his heart palpitate. He hurriedly took a step forward and cupped his fists at the sand boat. He said anxiously, "I wonder which senior is here. There might be some misunderstanding. Although the Divine Secrets Trading Company was established by the old president, I have put in a lot of effort for it to develop to this day. It can even be said that I have contributed greatly. Senior, please do not be deceived by someone with ulterior motives. Would you do me the honor of appearing for a chat?"
Gyangnian hurriedly explained, afraid that he would lose the opportunity if he was too slow. But at that moment —
"Shoo! Shoo!
Shoo! "The golden sword beams shot out from the sand boat once again. They blanketed the sky and the aura was even more ferocious than before!
Seeing his vision filled with sword beams, Gyangnian's face turned ashen from fright. He had said everything he could but the other party did not give him any room for negotiation!
