The moment their eyes met, Chen Tianlong felt Lin Changge's gaze was as deep as an abyss, as if it wanted to suck his Soul in.
He was completely stunned.
At this moment, Liu Zheng charged fiercely from the side.
Boom!
He landed a solid punch on Lin Changge's temple, roaring, "Chen Tianlong, what are you standing there for…"
Before he could finish speaking, with a squelch, Lin Changge's hand shot out like lightning, piercing Liu Zheng's chest. In his palm, he clutched a still-beating heart.
Liu Zheng's pupils widened in fury, and his body slumped to the ground.
Even in death, he couldn't understand why Lin Changge had become so strong.
After killing Liu Zheng, Lin Changge's lips curved into a playful smirk. "Chen Tianlong, I can tell you're very proud, thinking you're Tianyin City's number one Genius, and that you'll easily enter the Tianhuo Sect to Cultivate in the future…"
"In reality, you don't even have the right to make me draw my Saber!"
Bang!
Lin Changge's punch landed squarely on Chen Tianlong's forehead, cracking his skull. His neck, unable to withstand the immense impact, snapped with a crack, and he fell backward.
Killed in one move!
Chen Tianlong, dead!
After killing the two, Lin Changge didn't forget to grab the Soul Guiding Sword.
He looked it over. "A fourth-grade Ling Array weapon, not bad. It's mine now."
The entire venue was deathly silent.
Not only were the Liu family and Chen family completely dumbfounded, but even the Ye family members hadn't expected the situation to be so exaggerated, a complete one-sided victory.
Was there still any suspense?
"You deserve to die!"
Elder Song could no longer suppress the surging killing intent within him. He raised his hand, condensed a Sword Qi, and slashed it across the air towards Lin Changge.
Wherever the Sword Qi passed, the Void Realm tore.
He was actually a Sword Cultivator!
Whether it's Saber or Sword, after Cultivating to a certain level, one can enter the Realm.
Once one enters the Realm, a Saber user becomes a Saber Cultivator, and a Sword user becomes a Sword Cultivator.
Both Saber Cultivators and Sword Cultivators are synonymous with decisive killing.
They are powerful, of noble status, and can easily sweep aside opponents of the same Realm.
However, entering the Realm is very difficult!
Many Cultivators who wield Sabers or Swords struggle their entire lives to even touch the Realm of entering.
Therefore, when Elder Song made his move, it caused a stir of exclamations on the scene.
A Sword Cultivator of Earth Spirit Realm Seventh Layer was going to kill Lin Changge on the spot?
Was he disregarding even the most basic rules?
On the stage, Lin Changge's eyes were cold and fierce, like a ferocious beast.
The Tianhuo Sect's long-standing principle was to eliminate all threats. This old dog had come under the Sect's orders to deliver a fatal blow.
"Song Ting, how dare you!"
Ye Hongtian roared. He unleashed his full Cultivation, his movement technique soaring like a startled swan, meeting the terrifying sword strike.
Although he was only Earth Spirit Realm Fifth Layer, Ye Hongtian did not hesitate.
Ye Yan's expression changed, and he instinctively reached for the ancient black ring on his hand.
Clang!
Just when everyone thought Lin Changge was doomed, a sharp Saber Qi arrived later but moved faster, deflecting the Sword Qi. The two collided, emitting a sound of collapse.
"As an Elder of the Tianhuo Sect, to be utterly defeated in a battle where you held all advantages, and then, out of shame and anger, directly attack a Junior… it truly reflects the demeanor of your Sect."
Fang Ning, clad in black with a cold, beautiful face, curled her lips in mockery. Her voice was like a cold spring in a secluded valley, and the blood-colored precious Saber she had always held in her arms finally left its sheath.
In an instant, many gazes focused on her.
The young girl had fair skin, delicate features, and long hair tied into a high ponytail. Her demeanor was aloof, as if she was uninterested in everything.
But upon closer inspection, one could feel the burning Battle Intent hidden beneath those beautiful eyes.
"Fang Ning, are you going to protect him?"
Elder Song's eyes were sinister. "Killing him is the Sect Master's order. If your Fengxuan Sect insists on protecting him, as retaliation, we will do our utmost to kill your Sect's Disciples! Is it worth sacrificing so many Disciples for a Tianhuo Sect outcast?"
These words were tantamount to directly revealing everything.
The Tianhuo Sect wanted to nip the problem in the bud!
Who dared to oppose them?
"He and I still have an agreement. You cannot kill him."
The blood Saber in Fang Ning's hand exuded a strong bloody smell. She lifted her pretty face, her beautiful eyes directly looking at Elder Song. "Yesterday, I just advanced to Earth Spirit Realm Fourth Layer… Elder Song, a Seventh Layer of Earth Spirit Realm, please enlighten me!"
At the same time, a magnificent Saber Qi erupted around her. Wherever the blood-light passed, killing intent permeated, forcing the space to twist and distort.
For a fleeting moment, many Cultivators experienced an illusion, as if a young girl who had emerged from a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood stood before them.
She was so beautiful, so fierce, so sharp, and so dazzling.
The Seventh Pavilion Master, fearing no chaos, added with a chuckle, "Against a Seventh Layer with a Fourth Layer, the advantage is yours."
Elder Song took a deep breath. He could utter harsh words, but he might not have the courage to act.
Although his Realm held an absolute advantage, in a direct confrontation, he might not be Fang Ning's opponent.
This young girl's skill was almost at the Dao, and her strength was monstrous!
Fighting above her Realm was merely child's play for her, incredibly easy.
"I'll ask you one more time!"
Elder Song roared, trying to emphasize his ferocity, "If you protect him today, your Fengxuan Sect will lose more Disciples next year, with countless casualties… I advise you to think carefully!"
"The Fengxuan Sect and the Tianhuo Sect are already mortal enemies."
Fang Ning scoffed, "To try and threaten me with that is simply too ridiculous."
Creak!
Elder Song clenched his fists. The anger in his heart told him that he should draw his sword at this moment, no matter the cost, and kill Lin Changge.
But reason told him that daring to draw his sword meant death.
Not to mention Fang Ning, the Seventh Pavilion Master was also standing nearby.
The Seventh Pavilion Master rarely made a move, but no one dared to question his strength.
On the stage, Lin Changge frowned, quietly observing the unfolding situation.
Elder Song's face twisted multiple times. After a series of internal struggles, he still gave up on making a move. Lin Changge's talent was strong, but with his Spirit Bloodline crippled, he would definitely not reach his former heights.
There was no need to sacrifice himself for him.
"Fang Ning, when more heads are displayed before the Fengxuan Sect's gates, don't you dare regret what you did today."
Elder Song left a harsh warning and returned to the Chen family's ranks with a gloomy expression.
Chen Chongshan was dumbfounded. He stared at the still warm corpse on the stage, his mind a blank.
In just three days, both of his exceptionally talented sons had died tragically!
Such hatred!
Not far away, Liu Ying was also trembling all over, his pupils bloodshot.
"Elder!"
Chen Chongshan turned and kowtowed, "Please… avenge my sons!"
Elder Song's eyes were ruthless. "I have already informed the Sect. Lin Changge… will not be complacent for long. The Fengxuan Sect cannot protect him. As long as he is still in Yuan Country, no one can protect him!"
"Thank you, Miss Fang."
Lin Changge cupped his hands towards Fang Ning.
"You and I still have a battle agreement after the Ling Array."
Fang Ning put away her blood-colored precious Saber, her pretty face cold. "You said you would advance to the Earth Spirit Realm. Don't go back on your word."
"Naturally."
Lin Changge, full of spirit, strode off the arena.
City Lord Lu looked at his retreating figure. In a trance, he seemed to see the young Saber Cultivator who had once been famous throughout most of Yuan Country…
Perhaps, he was just dormant, never truly gone!
