Chapter 848 – One Move! (1/2)
Martial Enlightenment City.
While it was a Gold Rank power, it wasn’t renowned throughout Pine Prefecture. Because there were countless Gold Rank powers throughout the prefecture!
However, Martial Enlightenment City had become the center of the prefecture’s attention today.
A disciple of the Ancient Sword School had destroyed the Dao Order’s h.e.l.l’s Coffin, killed 2 of its disciples from the Earthly Path, and a disciple from the Heavenly Path. It could be said to be the first time that the Ancient Sword School had slapped the Dao Order so hard.
The Ancient Sword School had been enemies with the Dao Order for many years, and their disciples would fight practically every single time they met. Over the years, both sides won and lost on occasion. But this time, it wasn’t just a simple battle, and it wasn’t just a matter of victory or defeat.
This time, it was a matter of life and death!
The death of a few was nothing to powers like the Dao Order and Ancient Sword School. In their opinion, their disciples could die, but they couldn’t lose face.
This time, Yang Ye had slapped the Dao Order’s face really hard, and it could be said that Yang Ye had stomped on its face. So, if Yang Ye really was able to return to the Ancient Sword School, then there was no doubt that the Dao Order’s face wouldn’t have just been stomped on, it would have been completely and truly trampled on.
Moreover, from that time onward, the Dao Order would be eternally beneath the Ancient Sword School. Not only that, but it would also be unable to hold its head up high before the other Platinum Rank powers as well!
So, the Dao Order was determined to kill Yang Ye, and he couldn’t just die normally!
At this moment, the cultivators from all over the prefecture were standing around the teleportation platform in Martial Enlightenment City. However, the most striking of them all were the 2 groups of people who stood on the left and right of the teleportation platform.
The group on the left consisted of 5 people, and all of them wore white robes. Obviously, they were disciples of the Dao Order.
As for the group on the right, they had 5 members as well. All of them wore green clothes and carried sword chests on their backs. They were clearly from the Ancient Sword School.
“Tsk, tsk. Not only have the Three Swords in the Exalt Realm of the Ancient Sword School come here, even the Slow Sword, Wu Yanzhong, is here. Hehe, looks like the Ancient Sword School is determined to fight the Dao Order to the end this time!”
“The Slow Sword, Wu Yanzhong? The same Wu Yanzhong who used the Fundamental Sword Technique to surmount his realm of cultivation and kill a Half-Saint?”
“Besides him, who else is worthy of being called the Slow Sword? He killed a Half-Saint with the Fundamental Sword Technique while he was still at the high rank of the Exalt Realm all those years ago. From that moment onwards, he became renowned because of that battle. Now, a few years have pa.s.sed, and he’s at the Monarch Realm. His current strength is probably impossible to fathom!”
“Looks like the Ancient Sword School sent him to support Yang Ye because they don’t want that fellow, Yang Ye, to be bullied or threatened by the Dao Order’s experts. Tsk, tsk. Looks like the Ancient Sword School really is determined to protect Yang Ye!”
Suddenly, the white robed figures on the left of the teleportation platform had suddenly stood up, and then everyone watched as they bowed respectfully towards a certain direction.
The others here looked in that direction, and they saw a white robed woman who held a black sickle in her hand walking slowly towards them. The woman seemed to be around the age of 20. She had pretty and delicate features, and a slim figure. As she walked slowly with that sickle in her grasp, she seemed like the G.o.d of death from the netherworld, and she emanated a heavy pressure upon everyone around her.
“The G.o.d of Death, Kong Lian….” Someone exclaimed involuntarily.
“According to rumor, someone will definitely die wherever she goes. The Dao Order actually sent her! What exactly does it intend to do? Do they intend to fight the Ancient Sword School right now?”
“This is getting serious….” The members of the Ancient Sword School revealed solemn expressions when they saw her.
“If Yang Ye survives, all 5 of you will still die! If Yang Ye dies, all of you will die with him!” The woman waved the sickle in her hand as she walked over to the members of the Ancient Sword School, and she gazed at them as if she was looking at corpses. Moreover, her tone was simply beyond doubt.
“Feel free to try if you have the ability!” The man who led the group from the Ancient Sword School gazed at her as he spoke in a carefree manner.
“I heard that you, the Slow Sword, show signs of returning to simplicity. I’ve wanted to experience that for myself for a very long time!” Kong Lian continued, “I hope you don’t disappoint me!”
“Anytime!” Wu Yanzhong nodded.
Many cultivators in the surroundings started quietly moving backwards, and they opened up a huge empty s.p.a.ce there. At this moment, only the members of the Ancient Sword School and Dao Order resided in that empty s.p.a.ce.
Right when the atmosphere between them was tense, the circle of light around the teleportation formation trembled violently, and everyone immediately shot their gazes over. It didn’t take long for a man and 2 women to appear there.
The gazes of everyone descended onto the man.
“Yang Ye, I’m… I’m… I’m a little scared….” Fan Meng tightened her grip on Yang Ye’s hand while her voice was trembling slightly. She’d known what would happen here before they even teleported over here.
Yang Ye chuckled lightly and said, “Little Meng, remember that as a sword cultivator, you shouldn’t fear the heavens, nor the earth, or the Saints or Immortals of this world.”
“Well said!” Wu Yanzhong and the other members of the Ancient Sword School walked over to Yang Ye. Wu Yanzhong sized him up before he said, “Do as you please. No one will be able to bully you with a higher cultivation while you’re here. I guarantee that with life!”
