Chapter 85: Selected Geniuses (1/2)

“BOOOM!.”

A deadly whistling sound spread throughout the atmosphere. Wen Ren Yan would probably be exterminated in the blink of an eye. Wen Ren Yan’s face turned deathly pale and blood started to drip from his mouth under the pressure. That sword was incredibly powerful.

“Disperse!”

At that moment, a strong and pure Qi came from the sky and collided into that deadly sword Qi. The rumbling noise caused by their collision was unceasingly resonating in the entire gorge. Besides, a silhouette had landed in front Lin Feng. It was the old woman who was Wen Ren Yan’s teacher.

“It’s enough. You won.” said the old woman in an indifferent tone yet sounding like she wouldn’t tolerate any resistance.

Lin Feng’s pupils shrank. How ridiculous. Was that all? He had won? But Wen Ren Yan could continue behaving like before if he didn’t die.

“Old woman, have you forgotten our agreement?” said Protector Bei sounding annoyed.

“Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten about it but Wen Ren Yan is my only disciple. Even if I am losing face now, I cannot even bear the thought of losing my only student and seeing him die.”

The old woman’s words deeply moved the crowd. However, she said to Protector Bei that he didn’t have to worry and that she hadn’t forgotten their agreement. She had interrupted Lin Feng and Wen Ren Yan’s battle and had saved Wen Ren Yan. Wasn’t that a bit contradictory?

But the whole crowd didn’t pay attention to that. They were still lost in thoughts recalling Lin Feng’s sword a moment before. Lin Feng had definitely defeated Wen Ren Yan, the top ranked elite disciple.

At that moment, Lin Feng actually became the strongest of all the elite disciples

Nan Gong Ling had already stood up. He was staring blankly at the fighting stage of the Life and Death Arena. He was stupefied but in his heart, he felt extremely gratified by that amazing young disciple.

Lin Feng was just amazing.

“Alright, the Elite Disciple Exam is over for today. Everybody can leave.”

Protector Bei was waving at people. He also didn’t argue with the old woman which surprised a multitude of people.

The Elite Disciple Exam was over?

Everybody was staring at Nan Gong Ling. Nan gong Ling was staring at Protector Bei who was just nodding.

“Hehe, brilliant. The Elite Disciple Exam is fascinating. There is no need to finish that early.”

At that moment, Duan Tian Lang said these words while scratching his ear which made Nan Gong Ling frown.

“Patriarch, let the crowd disperse. Dissolve the entire sect.”

Protector Bei suddenly sounded so solemn. The entire crowd was astonished. Disperse the crowd… and dissolve the sect?

What was going on?

Many people in the crowd suddenly had a bad premonition and then Duan Tian Lang’s laughter spread in the atmosphere.

“No need to waste time. Those at the periphery of the mountain are already dead. Nobody can leave. The best option is to stay here.”

“Duan Tian Lang, what do you mean?!”

Nan Gong Ling suddenly seemed extremely strict and firm. He was intensely staring at Duan Tian Lang.

“What do I mean? Nan Gong Ling, do you think that I have come here only to watch the best Elite Disciples of the Yun Hai Sect fighting at the Elite Disciple Exam? You are way too naive.” said Duan Tian Lang coldly and then said: “I said it already. I came here today because last time, the Yun Hai Sect refused to hand over some of its best disciples. I came here personally as a delegate of His Majesty.”

“Boom….”

His words were detonating in people’s brain. The ground was faintly shaking which stupefied everybody.

Besides, it seemed like it was shaking more and more. Not too long after, it seemed like the entire gorge was about to cave in. The noises were becoming louder and louder, more and more intense and were probably covering the entire area of the Yun Hai Sect.

“Pffffff….” Protector Bei sighed in a sorrowful way. He realized that these people had actually come to the Yun Hai Sect with harmful intentions.

The ground kept shaking and a huge cloud of dust was rising up in the air. At that moment, the crowd looked up in the air and saw a great number of Chi Xie armored cavalry at the top of the gorge. They were carrying bows on their back and looked like they were ready to attack at any moment.

“Chi Xie armored cavalry.” Lin Feng’s eyes shrank. How come the armored cavalry were suddenly surrounding the area?

Lin Feng glanced at the armored cavalry and then glanced at Liu Fei but at that moment Liu Fei seemed as surprised as him.

What was going on? What had happened?

Liu Fei also glanced at Lin Feng. These were her father’s personal army and they were surprisingly surrounding her father’s sect.

“Could it be that my father gave them orders himself? Is it even possible? Liu Fei was thinking and looked extremely perplexed. She thought that it would be ridiculous. Nobody could understand her father better than her… and her father would have never ordered such a thing.

What was going on?

“Duan… Tian… Lang…” Nan Gong Ling looked enraged and furious. His eyes, filled with murderous intentions, were fixedly staring at Duan Tian Lang.

“Nan Gong Ling, no need to stare at me like this. These Chi Xie armored cavalry are your dear friend’s, Liu Cang Lan’s, personal army. If there is a problem, talk to him, not to me.”

Duan Tian Lang was smiling evilly.

The ground was still shaking. In an instant, the top of the Stormy Gorge was full of Chi Xie armored cavalry. There were so many of them that not a drop of water could trickle through.

The Stormy Gorge was completely surrounded by Chi Xie armored cavalry and the situation really looked critical and dangerous.

Many disciples of the Yun Hai Sect were scared and shaking. What did these people want to do?

In the Stormy Gorge, around the Life and Death Arena, the beginning of a great turmoil was about to happen.

Wen Ren Yan was in a dire situation as blood dripped from the side of his mouth. He was injured from that strike and if this battle continued then he would surely lose his life. However events had unfolded to his advantage.

Suddenly Duan Tian Lang started to move down from the viewing platform. All eyes fell onto him as he slowly stepped down.

Chu Qing, who was next to him, looked at him anxiously. He surprisingly was moving towards the fighting stage of the Life and Death Arena.

He was extremely powerful. It seemed like each of his steps made the entire atmosphere vibrate. He was slowly moving towards the Life and Death Arena and then stepped on the highest fighting stage.

He was walking slowly as if he was having a peaceful walk in a flower garden.

“People of the Yun Hai Sect, please listen.”

Duan Tian Lang glanced at everybody and said in a loud voice: “I, Duan Tian Lang, represent His Majesty. My duty is to select some outstanding disciples who will join the Holy Courtyard of Xue Yue. However, your Patriarch has refused to help his Majesty’s aim. These days, His Majesty is furious and wants the Yun Hai Sect to disappear.”

Duan Tian Lang’s harsh words penetrated into everybody’s soul. He wanted the Yun Hai Sect to disappear from the Xue Yue Country?

How could he make such a powerful sect as the Yun Hai Sect disappear? There was only one solution… exterminate everybody within the sect.

These people wanted to exterminate every single member of the Yun Hai Sect!!

Everybody was panic stricken. The Yun Hai Sect members had joined the sect for the sake of cultivation to become stronger. Being killed for no reason would be an injustice.

“However, His Majesty is willing to show mercy. He’s giving a chance to every single one of you, ordinary disciple, elite disciples as well as core disciples, whose names are on the ranking lists to accept our offer and leave the Yun Hai Sect to join the Holy Courtyard of Xue Yue. The others will not be required.”

Duan Tian Lang’s words detonated in everybody’s brain. The crowd felt numb after hearing these words.

Leave the Yun Hai Sect? Only those who were ranked disciples?
