Shua , the decree streaked through the air, and there was a golden light bubbling forth.

Both Ling Han and Feng Yan leaped through the air, chasing after the decree. Whoever was able to gain possession of the decree now would practically be getting hold of the life-and-death power in this situation.

Peng, peng, peng, peng. The two men entered into an endless exchange of moves in mid air, but Ling Han was still at a slight advantage and managed to get the upper hand.

Ling Han stretched out a hand, and just when his fingertips were about to touch the decree, he suddenly paused. Then he waved out his left hand, and the Blood Sucking Origin Gold transformed into a golden thread that circled around the decree. Another toss, and he had cast off the decree far away from him.

The decree floated calmly downwards. A man who had been standing at the side grew covetous, and s.n.a.t.c.hed it over in a single move. Who knew that just as his hand had just grabbed hold of it, his whole arm was reduced to a lump of b.l.o.o.d.y flesh with a pa, instantly causing the man to shriek in agony.

“Heng!” Feng Yan stopped moving and said coldly, “You are quite cautious!”

Previously, he had indeed been caught off guard by Ling Han, but in the exchange of blows and fighting over to grab the decree that followed afterwards, it was not that he had been losing, but rather that he had held back some of his ability deliberately. He wanted to let Ling Han take hold of the decree and use that opportunity to crush Ling Han’s arm. He had not thought that Ling Han would be so cautious, however.

It was not that Ling Han was especially cautious. Instead, as someone who used to be an ultimate elite of the Heaven Tier, how could he be unaware of the taboos of a decree? He pretended that he was ignorant, made use of Feng Yan’s own intent to harm others, and led the latter to actually discard the decree on his own.

Now that Feng Yan had lost the decree as a threat, the others would naturally not have to obey his commands.

In a one against one battle, Ling Han was unafraid.

“Feng Yan!” Everyone was fuming in rage. A lowly martial artist from a humble background actually dared to threaten their lives; this was enough to make them all want nothing more but to devour him alive.

“Don’t be defiant!” Feng Yan exclaimed arrogantly, his eyes sweeping over his surroundings. “You pieces of trash only know how to express your anger verbally, but do any of you actually dare to make a move against me?”

“You!” Quite a number of people roared loudly with reddened eyes. The relatives of those people Feng Yan had killed previously were especially furious, their bodies trembling with restrained anger. However, the Winter Moon Sect was like a colossal behemoth that was pressing down on their heads. Who would dare make a move against Feng Yan when they were perfectly aware that he was a disciple of the Winter Moon Sect?

“Don’t go ‘you, you’, pieces of tras.h.!.+” Feng Yan smirked icily, and no longer bothered with the rest. He turned to Ling Han and said, “Though I am definitely going to kill you, but I have to admit that you are at least much braver than these pieces of trash since you actually dare to stand against me.”

Ling Han’s sword tremored, and he said, “You are speaking too much nonsense. You had best wash your neck clean and prepare for death!”

“You really dare to kill me?” Feng Yan laughed, “Are you not afraid of the Winter Moon Sect?”

“So what about it?” Ling Han asked calmly. He was indeed not taking the Winter Moon Sect to heart. No matter how much Feng Yan scrambled his brains, he could not possibly know that Ling Han used to be an ultimate elite of the Heaven Tier. Though his cultivation level had dropped, but how could his pride and scope drop as well?

In the future, he would definitely be capable of once again returning to the Heaven Tier, and this would not take too much time. What more when there was still an Ao Feng in the Winter Moon Sect, someone that Ling Han was definitely going to eliminate in the future? He was destined to face the Winter Moon Sect in an open confrontation.

In comparison, Feng Yan could only be considered a minor character.

“Hahahaha, what courage. Only killing such a man would be fulfilling!” Feng Yan laughed loudly, pointed at Ling Han and said, “If it was not for the fact that you killed my younger brother, I really would not have wanted to kill you off so soon.”

“Dream on!” Ling Han attacked, his sword waving; instantly, six flashes of Sword Qi danced together.

“Do you think I’m afraid of you?” Feng Yan shouted, and a faint silvery light flickered from his body. He waved his long saber in a slash that possessed the aggressive air of advancing forwards without any sign of retreat.

“What a good saber!” Xie Chang could not help but call out.

“You’re still praising this brat?” Lu Zhong Tian rolled his eyes. This guy had almost killed them all off just moments ago.

“That’s quite another matter. This brat’s saber arts is indeed not bad; if it wasn’t for… ai, even I have a bit of desire of take him as my disciple.” Xie Chang sighed with a shake of his head, looking like he felt it was really quite a pity.
