Chapter 446

Chapter 446

Lin Yun’s words were like a bolt of lightning that rumbled in everyone’s heart. All of them were too shocked to utter a word. They still couldn’t believe that the genius of a millennia from the Sword Cloud Pavilion died just like that in Lin Yun’s sword.

Just a second ago, Twilight was still declaring how Lin Yun would die if he didn’t surrender. But in the next second, he was severed into pieces. His strongest attack was completely crushed when the Iris Flower bloomed. His attack couldn’t even put up any resistance before Lin Yun.

Many people still couldn’t accept that Twilight had died. But if they were to calm down and think about it, they would realize that Lin Yun was never in the disadvantageous position throughout the fight. No matter how ferocious Twilight's attack was, Lin Yun was calm and composed.

On the other hand, Lin Yun began to gain the upper hand in the fight when he revealed his cultivation in the tenth stage, and everyone would realize that the level of their swords weren’t on the same level, to begin with.

The power of the Aquaselenic Sword had been entirely brought out under that brilliant moon, and the outcome was decided back then.

On the spectators' seats, Qin Yu’s face changed, and the shock he felt wasn’t any lower than anyone else. His emotions were going through a rollercoaster, and he couldn’t calm himself down.

In his view, there was no way Lin Yun could be compared to the eight titles no matter how strong he was, and there was no way Lin Yun could pose any threat to him. But now, Twilight was the one dead instead of Lin Yun. Just what did Lin Yun do for the past three days?

Even after Lin Yun sheathed his sword, his sword intent was still lingering on the stage. At this moment, his aura had reached the pinnacle. He gave everyone an impression of being arrogant and overbearing when he slew Twilight, but that wasn’t on purpose. It was as if it was part of his nature, to begin with.

He was Lin Yun, not a toy for the titled figures. The so-called titles weren’t that impressive in his eyes, and killing Twilight had completely exposed Lin Yun’s ambitions. He was here for the championship, and three years were too long for him.

When he noticed Qin Yu looking at him, he looked back at Qin Yu coldly. He had never intended on avoiding Qin Yu in this competition. Qin Yu wanted to kill him, and he also wanted to kill Qin Yu. He was practically certain that Qin Yu was the mastermind behind Xin Jue’s death, and Wang Yan was just a lackey.

Everyone knows about the logic, but no one dares to say it out because Qin Yu was the heir to the throne. But Lin Yun didn’t have that much concern, not to mention that death wasn’t surprising in the competition. He will get back Xin Yan’s surname for her, and also take revenge for Xin Jue’s death.

The two of their gazes clashed in the air, and the intensity made many people gulped down a mouthful of saliva. Everyone knew that the two of them would have an inevitable clash, but no one felt that Lin Yun could threaten Qin Yu before today. But now, it seems that there was a possibility.

“Impudent,” sneered Qin Yu. If Lin Yun thinks that he could fight him because he slew Twilight, then Lin Yun was just too ignorant.

The battle continued, but the shock brought to everyone because of Twilight’s death still lingered in everyone’s heart. The faces of the Sword Cloud Pavilion’s elders were also dark. Luo Yuhang and Twilight both died to Lin Yun, and it was like a curse. The Sword Firmament Pavilion was still the Sword Firmament Pavilion, and there was no way they could stand out with the Sword Firmament Pavilion around.

“The tenth battle, the Demonic Moon Villa’s Aquaselenic VS the Heavenly Profound Sect’s Su Yan!”

Aquaselenic was the only female among the titles, and her sword was smooth and clear like the moon. She had already reached a high attainment in the Cloudmist Sword a long time ago. She had an outstanding appearance, but her temperament underwent a total transformation when she unleashed her sword aura.

As if there were endless cold wind blowing from her body, she didn’t even use the Cloudmist Sword that she was famous for. On the contrary, she used a domineering sword technique to suppress her opponent entirely, and she didn’t look like a woman when she did that. There wasn’t any suspense in the fight, and Su Yan surrendered after taking a few swords.

The Heavenly Profound Sect’s performance in this competition was terrible, unlike the previous one. This made everyone begin to doubt them. On the contrary, the Sword Firmament Pavilion had two underdogs.

When Trueorigin went on the stage and killed his opponent in three punches, this made the entire scene silent. Many people knew that the Heavenly Profound Sect couldn’t take it anymore, and the elders would become anxious if Trueorigin didn’t show a strong front.

“The thirteenth battle, the Sword Firmament Pavilion’s VS the Hundred Beast Gate’s Feng Ye!”

Upon hearing the princess’ announcement, Luo Feng instructed, “Be careful. Don’t underestimate Feng Ye.”

He was in a rather good mood since both Bai Lixuan and Lin Yun made it to the top sixteen, not to mention Lin Yun even killed Twilight. If Feng Ye could make it into the top sixteen, then the Sword Firmament Pavilion would have a satisfactory performance in this competition.

“Don’t worry. I’ll win for sure.” Ye Feng also felt pent up from how Lin Yun stole all the limelight. If he couldn’t defeat Feng Ye, then he would be totally embarrassed. But he was rather confident about winning since he was in the quasi-Violet Palace Realm. It was more than enough to suppress that barbarian.

“The Sword Firmament Pavilion’s momentum seems strong. But I wonder how strong you are?” grinned Feng Ye.

“Why don’t you come and try,” replied Ye Feng.

“So be it,” laughed Feng Ye as he dashed forth.

On the other hand, although Ye Feng told his opponent to come and try, he instantly brought out his ultimate move. Although this might seem despicable, this was the Dragon Gate Competition. As long as he could win, everything else was nothing much.

When Feng Ye came over, the sword in Ye Feng’s hand started dancing like a whip, manifesting to countless swords that enveloped Feng Ye.

“You!” Feng Ye cursed. An azure radiance soon came out from his body and enveloped him. Meanwhile, he threw both his fists forth. Every single of his punches were accompanied with great power, which made the entire stage tremble. But despite this, he wasn’t able to land any hits on Ye Feng.

What thick skin this barbarian has! Ye Feng frowned his brows. He never expected that Feng Ye would have such a shocking defence, and it felt like he was hitting a mountain made of metals.

“Hehe, caught you!” Feng Ye grinned, and he threw out a punch. This punch had instantly locked onto Ye Feng, and there was no way Ye Feng could avoid this attack.

A barbarian will always be a barbarian. Can’t you see that I’m giving you an opportunity on purpose? Ye Feng sneered inwardly. He suddenly retracted his aura, and stabbed his sword at Feng Ye. The sword aura coming from him also enveloped Feng Ye in an instant.

“Ye Feng was actually holding back all along!”

“With his cultivation, it’s impossible that he’s not able to injure Feng Ye with his cultivation.”

“This Feng Ye was too impatient.” Many people noticed Ye Feng’s tricks, and they shook their heads. Coming this far, there was no longer any suspense in this fight.

Only Lin Yun had his brows tightly knitted. Feng Ye might be irritable, but he didn’t seem to be such a reckless fellow in his memory. This meant that there was something unusual about this fight.

Suddenly, a huge explosion rang out from the stage, which instantly robbed everyone of their hearings for a short moment. Many people even fainted from the explosion.

Ten cauldron’s worth of strength! Lin Yun’s face changed when he heard the explosions.

Shortly after, Ye Feng was blown out with his chest caved in. When he fell onto the ground, he threw out a few mouthfuls of blood, and he nearly fainted. Raising his head, he could only see Feng Ye looking at him with a grin.

“You fooled me!” Ye Feng said with his teeth gnashed. He would’ve surrendered immediately if he knew that his opponent had ten cauldron’s worth of strength. After all, only Heartcliff had such a terrifying strength in the entire capital.

“So what? Killing you is just as easy as raising my hand,” smiled Feng Ye.

Ye Feng was immediately terrified as he immediately got up on his feet and jumped down the stage, “I surrender.”

When he turned behind, he noticed that Feng Ye didn’t even budge from where he stood. He was only standing there looking over with a mocking smile, which instantly made Ye Feng’s face turn black.

At this moment, everyone instantly knew that there was another underdog. This competition was a lot more intense than the previous ones, and no one had expected that Feng Ye’s brute strength was actually comparable to Heartcliff.

“The fourteenth battle, the Demonic Moon Villa’s Situ Yi VS the Heavenly Qin Institute’s Everluck!” The next match instantly caused another commotion because everyone was also looking forward to this fight.

No one was optimistic about Situ Yi in the beginning, but everyone couldn’t help wondering if Situ Yi could actually win with Lin Yun defeating Twilight in this round.
