Chapter 1121 - Definitely Taking Revenge
The Sovereign's Ascension
The entire hall was terrifyingly quiet as everyone looked at Lin Yun with sympathy in their eyes. They all knew that Lin Yun was a genius, but it was a pity that he ran into Yan Teng. It was unreasonable for Yan Teng to humiliate Lin Yun. After all, Lin Yun wasnât even in the Empyrean Realm. Just thinking about it made everyone shiver.
âDonât you think youâre a little too much?â Lin Yun questioned while suppressing his rage. He didnât want to start unnecessary fights as he was only staying in the Profound Azure Manor for a year. He didnât want to involve himself in the grudges between the Fleeting Cloud Sword Sect and the other sects. But it seemed like others were determined to involve him.
âDo I, Yan Teng, need you to teach me?â Yan Teng thought that Lin Yun was afraid and sneered, âI naturally have no grudges with you, but I want to give some guidance to someone from the younger generation. If you donât give me any face, donât blame me for not giving you any face.â
Xuan Fei laughed, âBrother Yan, why are you wasting your time with him? Lin Yun, either kneel or fight. Show us youâre a real man. Didnât Brother Yan say that he would only use half of his strength? Donât tell me that you donât have any courage.â
The other disciples smiled bitterly when they heard that because Yan Teng and his group were really shameless. Yan Teng was already in the Galaxy Stage, so even if he only used half of his strength, he would be in the Star Stage.
Lin Yun was clearly only in the Heavenly Soul Realm, so there was a huge gap between someone in the Heavenly Soul Realm and the Empyrean Realm in terms of the quality of their energy. It was clearly bullying even though they tried to make it sound righteous.
âCome on then,â said Lin Yun calmly while looking at Yan Teng. There was a huge difference in their strength, and it would be tough for them to fight unless Lin Yun revealed his identity as Flower Burial. But if Yan Teng was only using half of his strength, then there was nothing Lin Yun had to be afraid of.
Lin Yunâs reply left everyone surprised because they didnât think that Lin Yun would agree to it. Then again, they didnât think that Lin Yun had another solution right now unless he was really going to kneel and beg for forgiveness.
âYouâre courageous!â Yan Teng grinned with a sinister smile, âI told you, Iâm only going to use half of my strength. If you can last ten moves, then I wonât make things difficult for you.â
The other disciples from the three clans also sneered when they heard that because Lin Yun was courting humiliation. It didnât matter how much Yan Teng suppressed his strength, they believed that Lin Yun would be defeated.
âFirst move.â Yan Teng flashed and disappeared before everyone. When he reappeared, he was in front of Lin Yun, swinging his palm over at Lin Yunâs face. His palm was accompanied by thunder and wind that made everyone gasp.
But just when the slap was about to reach Lin Yun, the latter suddenly reached out and grabbed onto Yan Tengâs wrist. This scene had left everyone shocked before they wondered if this was a coincidence.
âYou dare to stop me? Die!â Veins popped out on Yan Tengâs forehead as he flew into a rage and pushed his palm down like a ferocious beast.
Lin Yun didnât face him head-on and merely flashed to avoid this move. Just like that, Yan Tengâs momentum carried him forward and his palm slapped the ground. When he turned back, his gaze locked onto Lin Yun and unleashed his second move.
But Lin Yun merely used the Golden Crow Nine Transformations and easily dodged this attack, leaving afterimages behind. Although Lin Yunâs afterimages were destroyed by Yan Teng, Yan Teng failed to even touch the corner of Lin Yunâs clothes.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Just like that, seven moves had passed in the blink of an eye with Yan Teng unable to do anything to Lin Yun. It was so unbelievable to the crowd that they could only gasp in shock.
Yan Tengâs face began to sink as he unleashed his aura to lock Lin Yun in place. However, Lin Yun didnât seem to be restricted by it. After all, his sky sword intent was in complete mastery, and was only half a step from reaching the fourth grade. Not even an expert in the Astral Stage could do anything to him, not to mention someone in the Galaxy Stage.
Relying on the Golden Crow Nine Transformations, Lin Yun easily dodged Yan Tengâs attacks, and two more attacks passed in the blink of an eye. Not that he was only left with one move left, Yan Teng cursed inwardly before he unleashed all of his strength.
At this moment, he had unleashed all his cultivation and a violent gale exploded out from him and swept through the hall. Lin Yun was caught by surprise and was forced to take several steps back.
When he raised his head, a cold light flashed through his pupils because he was completely disappointed by the disciples of these three sects. He didnât think that they would be so shameless.
âYouâre messing with me? Iâm giving you guidance and all you do is dodge. Today, Iâll teach you a lesson!â Yan Teng was overwhelmed by fury and felt that he was fooled by Lin Yun. But just when he charged forth, a black blur had already dashed out with its claws directed at Yan Teng.
âWatch out!â Lin Yun was shocked. It was Lilâ Red who stepped out, fearing that Lin Yun might be injured. Lilâ Red had yet to reach the Empyrean Realm, and there was no way it could be a match for Yan Teng in its cat form.
This had also surprised Yan Teng and the origin energy around him was torn apart before he could even react, leaving wounds on his cheeks. Touching the blood on his cheeks, killing intent began to explode out from Yan Teng the next moment as he dashed toward that cat in the next moment, âYou damned cat, youâre courting death!â
He was too quick for Lilâ Red and he didnât hold back any of his strength. So his palm landed on lIlâ Red with a loud explosion. Lilâ Red released a miserable howl before it fell onto the ground. Its boneshad shattered under the palm and it could only lie on the ground. No matter how it struggled, Lilâ Red could only groan out in pain and couldnât get back up.
Looking at this scene, Lin Yunâs heart sank.
âBrother Yan, are you alright?â Xuan Fei and Lei Lanâs faces changed as they quickly came over.
âSlaughter that cat and turn it into ashes!â Yan Teng felt the stinging pain on his cheek and gnashed his teeth. The two didnât hesitate to make their moves and charged toward Lilâ Red.
But just when they were about to reach Lilâ Red, Lin Yun soared into the sky and used the sword box to face Xuan Fei and Lei Lanâs attacks.
When Lin Yun took the attack, he let out a groan and his face turned pale. But he forced himself not to throw up blood by gnashing his teeth, using his body to block the attack meant for Lilâ Red.
âHow annoying!â Yan Tengâs face became sinister as he threw a palm out towards the sword box.
The crowd was dumbfounded that the three of them would make a move against Lin Yun at the same time. Although the sword box had negated most of the damage, Lin Yun was still bleeding from the corner of his lips with one knee falling onto the ground.
Looking at this scene, tears fell from Lilâ Redâs eyes as it groaned. However, Lin Yun merely replied with a smile. In the next second, an outburst of white light exploded from the sword box that sent Yang Teng, Xuan Fei, and Lei Lan flying.
Taking advantage of this moment, Lin Yun took Lilâ Red into his embrace and quickly left.
âStop!â Patriarch Qiuâs face sank seeing that Yan Tengâs party was about to pursue Lin Yun, âAre you guys going to kill a core disciple of the Fleeting Cloud Sword Sect in front of me?â
Yan Tengâs group of three were briefly stunned before they recovered their composure. They had no intention of killing Lin Yun and only wanted to teach him a lesson, but they didnât expect that they would be fooled instead. Yan Teng was especially upset because he suffered a wound on his face.
It was a great source of humiliation, but there was nothing they could do since Patriarch Qiu had spoken. In the end, Yan Teng smiled, âWe were only messing around. Itâs not that serious.â
Everyone else also smiled and returned to their seats. No longer concealing his fury, Lin Yun wiped the blood off his lips and said, âIâve witnessed the grace of the three sects. Since you guys want to play, then weâll play!â
Before anyone could reply, he left with Lilâ Red. This instantly made the smile on Yan Tengâs group of three disappear. Lin Yun was still so arrogant even after he managed to survive? They realized that they had to cripple Lin Yun no matter what.
A hundred miles away from the Qiu Clanâs residence, Lilâ Red was in Lilâ Purpleâs embrace as she spoke with heartache in her eyes, âThose bastards actually dared to injure Lilâ Red so badly? Lin Yun, you have to teach them a lesson no matter what!â
âYou think dogs will behave if you teach them a lesson?â Lin Yun replied without changing the expression on his face.
âThen continue to teach them a lesson until they know how to behave!â Lilâ Purple said.
âDogs like them should be killed,â said Lin Yun with a wisp of killing aura flashing through his pupils. When Lilâ Purple raised her head, she could see the terrifying chill on Lin Yunâs face.
Lin Yunâs heart was already overwhelmed with a killing aura after seeing Yan Teng picking on him time and time again. Now that they dared to make a move on Lilâ Red, Lin Yun could no longer bear the killing intent in his heart.
But fortunately, he still had his rationale and knew that it would only bring troubles to the Fleeting Cloud Sword Sect if he killed them. It just wasnât the right time to kill them. From their arrogance, Lin Yun could tell that the Fleeting Cloud Sword Sectâs days hadnât been good.
Furthermore, there was a chance they would escape if he made his move. After all, they were in the pinnacle Galaxy Stage, and even he wasnât confident of dealing with all of them even after revealing his identity as Flower Burial. If he had to make a move, he had to ensure that he could kill them!
