On the Sun Family’s side, there were nearly thirty experts. However, since they seemed to belong to different hidden sects and ancient sects, all of them stood together, looking disorganized and split-up into groups. Some of them stood in threes, and others stood in fives, each of them wary against each other.
Indeed, it was as Ling Yun had said, these experts were here with their own missions. Even though the Sun Family had hired them temporarily, they had their own thoughts and objectives. Therefore, they were facing internal conflict even amongst themselves.
With a flash of movement, Ling Yun left a shadow-clone of himself where he was standing. His original body had already rushed to a small group of five, and he immediately used the assassination technique, Tornado Cloud, and launched an attack towards the five people.
Ling Yun’s movements were way too fast. If he used the Dragon Fish Phantom Ability at its maximum limit, it would be comparable to an expert at Xiantian Realm Level Two. Moreover, all of these people were at most at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine. In the face of his speed, they were like babies still learning to walk. They didn’t expect that Ling Yun would only say a sentence before he would make a move to kill them. Before they could even react, a dark blade with the silhouette of a wave was already swinging towards them with a chilling killing intent!
Don’t attempt to block his blade, that’s the Devil’s Blade!
someone shouted loudly.
But it was already too late. In the blink of an eye, those five people saw Ling Yun in front of them. Their natural instinct was to either defend or dodge, and one of them even attempted a sneak attack on Ling Yun.
Chk!
The sounds of a sword cutting flesh ensued. Around Ling Yun, decapitated limbs and fresh blood spurted as countless screams were heard!
Of the five people, two died while two were injured. Only one Houtian Realm Level Nine expert, who used every bit of his power and abilities, managed to dodge Ling Yun’s dark slashes. The price he paid was his weapon being cut in half!
Not caring about the consequences of the battle, Ling Yun took a deep breath as his figure flew up and leaped into the skies. Then, he dashed straight into the small group of four nearby. With his reinforced body, he caused a warrior at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Eight to fly off on impact, simultaneously unleashing
Qian Kun Slash
!
This swing was even faster than before. Since he made someone fly off, the Devil’s Blade only cut into the two people next to him. At the same time, he unleashed the Tiangang Demon Fist with his left hand, directly landing a blow on a person’s right shoulder!
The dark blade had cold mist surrounding it. Over Ling Yun’s shoulder, Ling Yun swung the blade down, cutting that person into two halves. At the same time, his blade continued, slicing off the legs of the person on his right as well!
Sha-
With a slash, he cut down the two experts completely! At the same time, with a
crack
sound, another person’s right shoulder was crushed by Ling Yun. His entire right arm hung limply by his side as a pitiful shout ensued!
Without pulling his punches, Ling Yun pulled out dozens of steel nails. Using the Shower of Flowers Technique, he immediately scattered them towards another six-man group, leaving another three people heavily injured!
Cui Lao, Dugu Mo, I’ll leave those injured people for you guys to finish off!
Ling Yun was in battle, but he didn’t forget to communicate this to Cui Lao and Dugu Mo telepathically.
The expert that flew off because of Ling Yun’s attack didn’t stand up again for a long time. Responding to Ling Yun, Dugu Mo said,
Alright!
Leaping into the air, he dodged the enemy’s Raining Blade. He began to finish off the men nearby. Stabbing his sword into the injured man’s neck, he helped to end their misery.
Forget about all the consequences, hurry up and kill him and take the Devil’s Blade!
Seeing Ling Yun overwhelm them, the experts from the Sun Family were in a panic. Although they had the advantage in numbers, even if the chopping board had dozens of vegetables, how could they withstand a kitchen knife that was cutting viciously and uncontrollably?
While Ling Yun was controlling his energy, three groups led by experts at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine rushed forward. They decided that they would pull out all the stops to kill Ling Yun first.
Seeing this, Ling Yun didn’t panic. Instead, he looked overjoyed. He sent a telepathic message.
Dugu Mo, help me to finish up the rest. Cui Lao, you deal with those experts below Houtian Realm Level Nine!
In the midst of enemies that outnumbered them, what Ling Yun wanted to do was naturally to exterminate as many enemies as possible to drain the enemy of their battle power. There was no way he could let Cui Lao and Dugu Mo fight extensively with the opponents’ powerful experts.
Cui Lao saw that Ling Yun had successfully lured the enemy’s true experts. Without even waiting for Ling Yun’s orders, he had already started moving to find the enemy’s weaker warriors, unleashing a series of attacks as he killed three people in an instant.
Cui Lao could already tell that at Ling Yun’s current level, the experts at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine couldn’t withstand more than three blows from him. Therefore, he was reassured.
At that moment, the three experts at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine led dozens of people with them. All of them were attempting to surround Ling Yun. In an instant, Ling Yun was trapped in the middle of them!
Ling Yun intentionally paused for a moment. Once those people were within a meter of him, he laughed coldly and began to move again. Raising his blade lightly, he scared the people in front, causing them to shuffle backwards. However, he swiftly swung his Devil’s Blade behind him.
Reversal Hurricane Wave!
With a swing of his blade, a torrent of blood came raining from all directions. Four people were cut in half horizontally by the Devil’s Blade!
Hurry, attack him while he’s vulnerable!
The three experts at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine were obviously not so easily killed. One of them had moved swiftly to Ling Yun’s left, stabbing at Ling Yun immediately. The Underworld Sect’s expert was the sliest. With his slender silhouette, he turned around and launched himself in front of Ling Yun. A pair of dried and jet-black hands transformed into claws and targeted Ling Yun’s chest.
Underworld Claw!
There was still another expert at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine. Leaping into the air, both of his hands grasped onto his blades as he launched an attack straight at Ling Yun’s head!
Watch out!
Seeing the three experts launch attacks simultaneously at Ling Yun’s openings, Cui Lao was so scared that his innards were about to shatter. Pushing his abilities to the maximum, he finished off a Houtian Realm Level Seven expert in an instant and rushed straight towards Ling Yun.
It was already too late for Ling Yun to pull back his blade. However, he wasn’t panicking at all. Maximizing his Stellar Condensation Technique, he bent his body forward slightly, avoiding the most threatening attack from his left. Even so, his chest came into direct contact with the Underworld Claw, taking one of his opponent’s fatal blows!
At the same time, he raised his head slightly, and his left arm swung wildly into the air, as if he were trying to use his hand to stop the opponent’s aerial attack!
Just as the Underworld Sect expert thought that he had landed his blow successfully, the expert on Ling Yun’s left suddenly changed his attack as the expert in the sky rejoiced!
Die!
he shouted aggressively, thinking that his blade would definitely bring an end to Ling Yun’s onslaught.
However, he rejoiced a little too early. Every person shockingly saw that a snow-white, shining blade — one dispersing cold air — emerged in his left hand out of nowhere!
Ninth Killing Technique — Sky Slicer!
This…
The assassin at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine had a complete change in expression, both of his eyes widening in shock!
His entire body was in the sky, and it was far too late for him to stop his attack. At that moment, even if he wanted to dodge, it would be impossible. Furthermore, Ling Yun’s blade had appeared out of thin air!
Ah!
The sharpness of the Dragon Vein Sword was tested immediately. With one stab, it pierced through the assassin, who was at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine. It pierced through his energy center and stomach. The snow-white blade stuck out from his back where his heart was, piercing through it completely!
God, how on earth did he pull a longsword out of nowhere?
The people in the surroundings originally thought that Ling Yun had met his end. But suddenly, the tables were turned again, and all of them were completely shocked!
The Underworld Sect expert was even more baffled. The Underworld Claw that he had immersed himself in training for forty years could even pierce through raw gold. He put everything into his attack as he aimed for Ling Yun’s chest, but even after taking his attack head-on, it seemed as though he suffered no damage at all!
But he isn’t wearing Golden Silk Armor!
Even though Ling Yun’s body was physically unharmed, his stealth clothes were ripped apart by the Underworld Claw. His perfect, unharmed skin was exposed in front of everyone’s eyes.
With a single stroke, Ling Yun tossed that expert’s corpse into the air. Flicking his wrist lightly, his Dragon Vein Sword stabbed towards the Underworld Sect expert’s throat.
Ah!
The Underworld Sect expert shouted loudly. Even though he wanted to escape, it was too late. With a vicious glare, both of his hands grabbed onto two regular warriors at his side, using them to clash into Ling Yun’s blade.
At the same time, he pushed his abilities to their limits and flew backwards without hesitation!
Ching, ching!
The Dragon Vein Sword was exceptionally sharp. In an instant, it pierced through those two experts’ throats, skewering both of them. However, Ling Yun’s movements didn’t stop. He continued his barrage of attacks!
There was no way Ling Yun could have suffered the Underworld Sect expert’s attack for no reason. That wasn’t his style, even if he were in a group battle!
He was taking advantage of the fact that the opponent’s movements were much slower than his!
How could it not be slow? In the first place, none of their movements were a match for Ling Yun. At the moment, the Underworld Sect expert was in the air, but Ling Yun continued to rush forward aggressively!
Ling Yun’s Dragon Vein Sword had skewered through two experts. With only three breaths, he caught up to the Underworld Sect expert. Thrusting his sword at him, it was as though a white dragon had surged forward, piercing through his throat instantly!
Ugh…
The Underworld Sect expert’s eyes popped out of their sockets. With a gurgling sound, he died with his eyes still wide open!
Sha!
Ling Yun’s blade whipped out aggressively as the three corpses on his blade fell with a thump to the ground!
Three minutes hadn’t even passed from when Ling Yun rushed headfirst into the enemy. He had killed two people who were at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine, three at Level Nine, five at the pinnacle of Level Eight, and seven people below the pinnacle of Level Eight!
Seventeen experts had lost their lives during Ling Yun’s onslaught. The results of the battle were simply terrifying!
On the other hand, Cui Lao had killed four people as well. Dugu Mo was finishing up the leftovers, killing five men. There were twenty-six bodies lying on the ground, with decapitated limbs lying about and blood flowing like a river!
The grass in front of the mansion entrance had turned into a living hell!
Standing on the Sun Family’s side, there were only four people left! Of which, there was still that sword-wielding pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine expert, two Houtian Realm Level Nine experts, and one pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Eight expert.
However, nobody intended to escape. Ling Yun moved far too fast to give them an opportunity to run!
Of course, Ling Yun had paid a huge price for this battle. Because he used the Stellar Condensation Technique to protect his body and focused solely on killing without dodging at all, countless blades had slashed his chest and back. His shirt had already been completely ripped apart, exposing the muscles on his shining body.
His Stellar Condensation Technique was at the twelfth minor realm, and Ling Yun’s body was already considered to be a treasure body, where fresh blood wouldn’t remain stained on him.
Devil… you’re a devil!
At this moment, the only one who was still sane enough to talk from the Sun Family was the swordsman at the pinnacle of Houtian Realm Level Nine. His lips quivering, he gripped his sword tightly. Shaking, he pointed at Ling Yun and said this.
Ling Yun stood amidst the countless corpses as though he were a grim reaper that had walked straight out of the gates of hell. He opened his mouth once again as he said plainly,
I warned you before, but none of you did what I asked. What other choice did I have?
