Chapter 1316: Brother Xin Falls
Ye Yun’s figure flickered, disappearing in place, then caught Ling Tian in mid-air.
Ling Tian’s mouth was full of blood, and his internal organs were also injured.
"Ling Tian, your Brother Xin from the Sword Pavilion is quite impressive..."
Ye Yun said with a faint smile.
"Ye Chen, actually, the internal competition in the Sword Pavilion is quite brutal. Such murderous affairs are not uncommon in the Sword Pavilion, it’s just that outsiders don’t know..."
Ling Tian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and gave a bitter smile.
"Killing at the drop of a hat, huh? I quite like that!"
Ye Yun grinned, his smile somewhat grim.
The Sword Pavilion is considered the most powerful Sword Dao Holy Land in the Divine Land.
Frequent killings, with a single sword causing bloodshed within seven steps, such slaughter in his view, is nothing extraordinary.
Ye Yun believed that a harsh environment could forge even more powerful Sword Cultivators.
For the Sword Pavilion to stand tall, feared by the people of the Divine Land, it relies not only on being ruthless to outsiders but equally ruthless to its own people.
...
"Your name is Ye Chen, right?"
Brother Xin squinted his eyes slightly, sneered coldly, "Don’t you fancy yourself as having strong swordsmanship? Come here, let’s have a match!"
"Ye Chen, don’t, Brother Xin is too strong."
Ling Tian hurriedly advised.
"No worries."
Ye Yun smiled and slowly walked in Brother Xin’s direction.
"Blades and swords are blind; if you die, don’t say I didn’t warn you!"
Holding the Silver Dragon Sword upside down, Ye Yun walked with a nonchalant demeanor, smiling as he went.
"You arrogant bastard, Ye Chen, if I don’t kill you today, I won’t bear the name Xin!"
Brother Xin, trembling all over, couldn’t help but roar in anger, drawing his sword to attack Ye Yun.
The terrifying rain of swords filled the sky.
"Brother Xin!"
Ling Tian was shocked in his heart, suddenly raised his sword, and rushed forward.
However, the next moment, he suddenly froze.
"This..." Ling Tian’s eyes widened, as a blood-spattering head suddenly floated in mid-air.
It was Brother Xin’s head.
Just now, he had vaguely seen a flash of sword light.
He hadn’t even had time to identify it.
In his heart, the always-powerful Brother Xin was suddenly beheaded.
"Ye Chen is too strong, such a profound mastery of swordsmanship, he absolutely could be selected from this world..."
A thought surfaced in Ling Tian’s heart, making him increasingly think he was wise for going to Daluo Sword Palace this time.
Ye Yun sheathed his sword, standing quietly in mid-air.
This sword.
He hadn’t taken Brother Xin’s life.
After all, for Ye Yun, killing this person with a single sword was too easy for such a narrow-minded and insidious villain.
"How can your sword speed be so fast?"
In mid-air.
Brother Xin’s head, hanging in the air, abruptly froze, his eyes almost popping out, shouting in horror.
Now he’s only beheaded, with his Primordial Spirit still inside the skull, so he’s not dead yet, and with some healing pills, he could reattach the head to the body.
Such an injury is no big deal to the Sword Pavilion cultivators.
"Fast, huh?"
Ye Yun smiled faintly, causing the Silver Dragon Sword to buzz, then thoughtfully glanced off into the distance.
On the Hanging Island, there were quite a few people watching this battle.
Most of them were disciples of the Sword Pavilion.
But there were also some cultivators of the Divine Emperor Realm observing secretly.
Ye Yun understood that these people were the high officials of the Sword Pavilion.
Retracting his gaze, Ye Yun looked at that head and smiled, "Are you scared now, Xin?"
"I..."
Brother Xin was about to say something when suddenly a sky-shattering sword light came down.
He couldn’t react at all.
This sword light split his head into two, not giving the Primordial Spirit a chance to escape.
Brother Xin fell on the spot.
"Those who kill will be killed—since you intended to kill me just now, don’t blame me for being merciless!"
Ye Yun retrieved his sword, his face slightly cold.
Since the Sword Pavilion is a place where killing can happen at any time, he has no fear.
Ye Yun’s act of killing two people in succession has surely shaken the higher authorities of the Sword Pavilion, he believed that as long as these people weren’t blind or foolish, they wouldn’t do anything stupid.
"Brother Xin is dead..."
Ling Tian looked at the back of Ye Yun, trembling all over.
My heavens!
What kind of Sword Dao monster did he find?
Too strong.
Is this... still the power of the God Venerate Realm at the Fifth Layer?
To know that Brother Xin was an elite disciple of the Sword Pavilion’s inner sect, God King Realm First Layer, and couldn’t withstand a single sword from Ye Chen.
...
In the depths of Hanging Island stood a towering pinnacle-like God Mountain.
On the God Mountain, there was an ancient hall.
At this moment.
Several elders of the Divine Emperor Realm stood in the center of the hall, their eyes like swords, staring at the scene outside Hanging Island.
"Such a fast sword!"
An elder of the Divine Emperor Realm Third Layer couldn’t help but exclaim.
Another middle-aged man of the Divine Emperor Realm Fourth Layer frowned and said, "Such sword speed is comparable to our Sword Pavilion’s Divine Emperor Realm, right?"
"Hmm, about the same."
An elder of the God Emperor Realm Sixth Layer nodded.
He was the highest in cultivation among them all.
Also the Pavilion Master of the Sword Pavilion—Sikong Ying.
The elder of the Divine Emperor Realm Third Layer, staring into the distance, smiled and said, "Pavilion Master, this person is suited to practice the Thunderbolt Sword of the outside world!"
"Indeed, with such speed talent, cultivating the Thunderbolt Sword would be like adding wings to a tiger!"
Sikong Ying nodded with a smile.
Although they are all Sword Pavilion’s heritages, the swordsmanship practiced by the outside world and the worldly one is not the same.
The sword skills of the outside world are of higher grade, more challenging to cultivate, but considerably powerful once mastered.
At the same realm.
The disciples of the worldly cannot defeat the disciples of the outside world.
The elder of the Divine Emperor Realm Third Layer blinked and smiled, "This time, the disciples of the Sword Pavilion brought back thousands of Sword Dao pride, who knows if this person will top the trials..."
Sikong Ying pondered and said, "This person’s cultivation base is a bit low, out of thousands of Sword Dao prides, those with God King Realm cultivation are numerous..."
Just as he said this.
Sikong Ying’s expression suddenly changed, frowning, "Elder Li went to avenge his disciple, quickly send someone to stop him!"
"I’ll go."
The elder of the Divine Emperor Realm Third Layer’s body flickered and disappeared from the hall.
Outside Hanging Island,
A half-step Divine Emperor Realm elder in black suddenly emerged from the void, holding the corpse of Xin’s young disciple in his hands, his expression full of grief and anger.
"Not good! Ye Chen, Brother Xin’s master Elder Li is here!"
Seeing this person, Ling Tian’s face changed instantly, quickly whispering a reminder.
"Beating the young, and the older comes?"
Ye Yun sneered.
This so-called Elder Li, if he dares to attack, Ye Yun will send him on his way, killing him with a single sword isn’t worth arguing about.
Might as well let master and disciple reunite underground.
When Elder Li appeared, he didn’t speak, silently putting Brother Xin’s head back on his body and placing them into a vermillion coffin.
After doing all this.
Elder Li suddenly raised his head, his eyes ferocious, speaking viciously, "You dare to kill one of my Sword Pavilion’s people, today, you must pay with blood!"
Before Ye Yun could speak, Ling Tian immediately stepped forward, closing the distance with Elder Li.
He cupped his fists in both hands and said in a deep voice, "Elder Li, Ye Chen’s Sword Dao talent is peerless, extremely likely to be selected for the outside world! Brother Xin’s death was because he provoked initially, Elder Li, please think twice!"
"Selected for the outside world? What nonsense are you talking! Get lost!"
Elder Li impatiently waved his hand.
Slap!
Ling Tian was sent flying with a slap, spitting blood in mid-air.
Elder Li’s cultivation is too high, already at half-step Divine Emperor Realm, even a casual slap is something that this little disciple at God Venerate Realm Fifth Layer couldn’t withstand.
"This poor guy..."
Seeing the miserable looking Ling Tian, Ye Yun couldn’t stop smiling bitterly.
"Ye Chen, go to hell!"
The furiously snarling Elder Li slapped towards Ye Yun.
Ye Yun stood unmoved.
He had already seen an elder of the Divine Emperor Realm Third Layer rushing over.
"Hold on!"
A roar sounded.
A figure with a powerful presence suddenly appeared, casually raising a hand to easily block Elder Li’s arm.
