Chapter 160 Shock
Therefore, at this moment, Sect Master Li Changtian was more willing to believe that the long saber wreathed in dragon-shaped black Qi in Sun Xuan's hand was merely similar to the one in the hands of that Python-Robed Zombie.
It was just a saber; there were countless ones with the same appearance in the world.
Sect Master Li Changtian firmly refused to believe that the saber in Sun Xuan's hand was the exact same one held by the Python-Robed Zombie.
Thinking of this, Sect Master Li Changtian suppressed the shock and suspicion in his heart, a trace of ruthlessness and Killing Intent revealing itself on his face at this moment.
With a wave of Sect Master Li Changtian's hand, a large number of Martial Artists holding sabers and swords immediately surged out from the second and third floors of Qingyuan Restaurant.
After revealing their figures, these Martial Artists instantly rushed down to the first floor, tightly surrounding Sun Xuan and Chu Lin in the center.
As for Yuan Dong and the other two Town Demon Deputy Commanders, after Sun Xuan killed Liu Suo with a single slash, they left Sun Xuan's side and stood behind Sect Master Li Changtian.
At this moment, all pretenses were completely cast aside, and the situation had reached the point where the daggers were revealed.
After Sun Xuan killed Liu Suo with a single slash, Yuan Dong and the other three completely showed their cards and stopped pretending.
At this moment, the three of them stared fiercely at Sun Xuan and Chu Lin, looking as if they wanted to swallow Sun Xuan and Chu Lin alive.
"Sect Master Li, the foundation that the Qingdan Sect has saved up over the years is about to be squandered away by you, isn't it?
A few days ago, you just lost a large number of Martial Artists in that underground space, and the ones on the scene now should be the last foundation of your Qingdan Sect, right?
For the Qingdan Sect to let a reckless person like you become the Sect Master is truly a great misfortune.
If you had calmly been your Sect Master and provoked fewer troubles, this Qingdan Sect might have been able to continue surviving.
Yet now that you are so reckless and making trouble over and over again, I'm afraid this Qingdan Sect is about to be destroyed in the hands of Sect Master Li Changtian."
Looking at these Qingdan Sect Martial Artists surrounding Sun Xuan and Chu Lin, Sun Xuan not only did not show the tension Sect Master Li Changtian had imagined, but instead directly spoke up to mock Sect Master Li Changtian.
Hearing these words from Sun Xuan, Sect Master Li Changtian's expression instantly became even gloomier.
Sect Master Li Changtian's eyes flashed with a fierce light, and then he spoke to Sun Xuan in a malicious tone:
"Sun, spare us your sharp tongue.
After we hack you to pieces with random blades later, you will have plenty of time to talk to King Yama down below!"
After speaking, Sect Master Li Changtian no longer hesitated, directly waved his hand at the Martial Artists surrounding Sun Xuan, and gave a light shout:
"All of you, charge! Whoever takes this person's head will be heavily rewarded by this Sect Master.
By then, Medicinal Pills, Martial Skills, and even true spirit artifacts will be bestowed upon you by this Sect Master!"
As soon as his voice fell, the crowd of Qingdan Sect Martial Artists let out wild roars one by one, their eyes turning red as they charged towards Sun Xuan and Chu Lin.
It was as if Sun Xuan and Chu Lin were not two people, but a pile of Martial Skills, Medicinal Pills, and even true spirit artifacts.
Wealth Moves people's hearts; under Sect Master Li Changtian's heavy rewards, a large number of Qingdan Sect Martial Artists threw their lives away as they pounced toward Sun Xuan and Chu Lin.
Seeing this scene, Chu Lin could not help but reveal an expression of extreme solemnity in his eyes.
While taking out a heavy mountain-opening saber, he spoke to Lord Sun in a solemn tone:
"Lord Sun, the four people of Yuan Dong harbor wild ambitions, and Sect Master Li Changtian has even openly attacked an official of the Town Demon Guard.
Right now, taking advantage of the fact that Yuan Dong and Sect Master Li Changtian haven't made a Move yet, the two of us should break out of the encirclement first and immediately go to the Town Demon Guard camp to seek reinforcements!"
After finishing his words, Chu Lin held his mountain-opening saber horizontally, True Qi surging wildly inside his body, and took the lead to desperately charge outward.
Seeing this, Sun Xuan was quick-eyed and nimble-handed, grabbing Chu Lin in one clutch.
"Brother Chu, what are you panicking about?
The reason I came here is to eliminate these unstable factors hidden in Qinghe County. If you run away like this, wouldn't all our efforts be in vain!"
Sun Xuan spoke to Chu Lin with a hint of speechlessness on his face.
Hearing Sun Xuan's words, Chu Lin's face instead revealed a panicked expression.
Chu Lin spoke with a somewhat hurried and terrified tone:
"My dear Lord Sun, what time is it now, and you're still thinking about dealing with these rebellious traitors like Yuan Dong?
Our original plan was merely to take the risk to deal with those four people, Yuan Dong.
But now the situation has clearly exceeded our expectations.
This group of ambitious scumbags from the Qingdan Sect has actually colluded with these four people of Yuan Dong long ago.
They have already laid an inescapable net here in Qingyuan Restaurant, just waiting for you, My Lord, to drill right into it.
Now, these eighth-rank and ninth-rank Martial Artists of the Qingdan Sect, coupled with Sect Master Li Changtian, an expert at the Late Stage of the seventh rank Realm, are far beyond what we can handle.
At this moment, you and I only have a desperate fight left to have a slim chance of escaping alive.
If this drags on any longer, once Yuan Dong's trio and Sect Master Li Changtian personally make a Move against us, we won't even be able to sprout wings and fly away!"
Chu Lin's words were spoken very fast and anxiously. Sun Xuan could clearly feel that Chu Lin, situated in an environment no different from an inescapable net, was truly frightened.
Yet under such circumstances where his life was in constant danger and he was extremely terrified, Chu Lin still had not abandoned him and fled alone.
This showed that Chu Lin still had his bottom line as a person. After handling the matters here, he could nurture Chu Lin well.
Just right, he had just taken control of the Qinghe County Demon Suppression Guard and lacked reliable manpower in his hands.
After this thought flashed through his mind, Sun Xuan spoke to Chu Lin with a slight smile on his face:
"Brother Chu can rest assured; a mere Qingdan Sect and Sect Master Li Changtian have not yet been placed in this official's eyes.
Cleaning up this bunch of scum won't take much effort!"
Originally, Chu Lin's reaction made Sect Master Li Changtian quite satisfied.
This Chu Lin's reaction was worthy of the reaction they should have as people surrounded and hunted down.
But now this fellow surnamed Sun was once again spouting reckless nonsense here, causing Sect Master Li Changtian's patience to reach its limit at this moment.
Right at this moment, dozens of eighth-rank and ninth-rank Martial Artists of the Qingdan Sect around them had all rushed close to Sun Xuan and Chu Lin.
If they wanted to leave at this moment, they had already missed the best opportunity.
At least with Chu Lin's strength, it was already unlikely for him to break out of the encirclement.
Seeing this, Chu Lin could not help but reveal a look of despair in his eyes.
The exact moment Chu Lin was prepared to fight desperately, Sun Xuan moved.
"Clang!"
At this moment, only a crisp sound of weapons clashing rang out. A ninth-rank Martial Artist of the Qingdan Sect with a greedy expression on his face was currently wielding his saber to execute his strongest Move against Sun Xuan.
However, what this ninth-rank Qingdan Sect Martial Artist did not expect was that Sun Xuan merely casually waved the long saber wreathed in dragon-shaped black Qi, and the precious sword he swung and slashed over was directly snapped in half.
It was as if what the other party was slicing through was not a hundred-refined precious sword, but a piece of slippery, tender tofu.
Seeing this, this ninth-rank Qingdan Sect Martial Artist's heart suddenly shook, and a great terror between life and death suddenly descended upon his mind.
Perceiving this, this ninth-rank Qingdan Sect Martial Artist was about to retreat, but unfortunately, before he could retreat,
Sun Xuan's hand holding the evil dragon saber gently deflected, and the evil dragon saber slashed toward the neck of this ninth-rank Qingdan Sect Martial Artist at an almost inescapable angle.
Hearing a soft sound ring out, the evil dragon saber instantly swept across the neck of this ninth-rank Martial Artist.
Then, an excellent head immediately soared into the sky.
In the eyes of outsiders, this scene looked as if the ninth-rank Qingdan Sect Martial Artist had deliberately sent his own neck onto Sun Xuan's evil dragon saber and was then killed with a single slash.
This scene could not help but chill the hearts of the crowd of Qingdan Sect Martial Artists who rushed to the front, and the gazes they directed at Sun Xuan were just like looking at a fiend.
The Move Sun Xuan had just used was merely a normal Move from the Heavenly Demon Martial Classic, his self-created unique skill.
It was just that the strength of that ninth-rank Qingdan Sect Martial Artist was too weak, which made it look as if that ninth-rank Martial Artist had bumped his neck into Sun Xuan's blade edge by himself.
The surrounding Qingdan Sect Martial Artists were temporarily suppressed by Sun Xuan and did not dare to attack forward for a moment.
However, Sun Xuan at this moment had completely no intention of stopping.
Since this Qingdan Sect dared to jump out and oppose him at this time, they should prepare themselves mentally to have their entire sect wiped out.
"Hum!"
At this moment, hearing a slight buzzing sound ring out, Chu Lin discovered that Lord Sun, whom he could see through less and less before his eyes, had actually disintegrated into a blur of phantoms at this moment, scattering toward the entire hall of Qingyuan Restaurant.
As phantoms filled the hall of Qingyuan Restaurant one by one, flashes of snowy-white saber light also filled the entire hall.
After just a moment's effort, the saber light dissipated, and the phantoms turned back into Sun Xuan's calm and composed figure.
However, the figures of the dozens of Qingdan Sect Martial Artists inside the hall were all directly frozen in place at this moment.
And in the next instant, continuous sounds of pu pu rang out.
The heads of the dozens of Qingdan Sect Martial Artists in the hall actually soared into the sky one by one, and from the dozens of headless corpses, streams of blood squirted out almost simultaneously.
At this instant, inside this hall of Qingyuan Restaurant, it was as if a rain of blood had suddenly fallen.
A large amount of blood soaked the bodies of Chu Lin, Sect Master Li Changtian, and the three Town Demon Deputy Commanders Yuan Dong, yet not a single drop stained Sun Xuan's body.
Then Sun Xuan was seen casually picking up the attribute points scattered on the ground. Although the attribute points dropped by these low-tier Martial Artists provided negligible enhancement for Sun Xuan, whose strength had reached this level,
but even a mosquito's leg was meat no matter how small, and Sun Xuan had never had the habit of casually wasting things since childhood.
Chu Lin, standing behind Sun Xuan, somewhat belatedly cast his gaze onto Sun Xuan.
An unspeakable look of shock unconsciously surfaced on Chu Lin's face.
At this moment, Chu Lin found it somewhat hard to believe the scene before him.
The things that had happened in this past half-day really felt like a roller coaster of drastic ups and downs for Chu Lin at this moment.
Originally, he wanted to remind Sun Xuan not to fall into the schemes and tricks of the four Town Demon Deputy Commanders including Yuan Dong, and wanted to dissuade Sun Xuan from spending time alone with the four of them.
But later, under Sun Xuan's insistence on laying out the plan and the infection of his confidence, Chu Lin decided to come together with Sun Xuan to complete this layout targeting the four of them.
However, after arriving at Qingyuan Restaurant, Chu Lin discovered that things did not develop the way he had imagined before.
Originally, Chu Lin thought they only needed to deal with the four people of Yuan Dong; even if he and Sun Xuan were not a match, he still had a certain degree of confidence to escape.
But after arriving at Qingyuan Restaurant, Chu Lin discovered that things had far exceeded his estimation.
What he did not expect was that these four Town Demon Deputy Commanders, including Yuan Dong, turned their coats and colluded with the Qingdan Sect.
And the Qingdan Sect had long ago laid an inescapable net inside this Qingyuan Restaurant, and even Sect Master Li Changtian of the Qingdan Sect had come.
As a result, things became a huge deal.
Under this circumstance, let alone setting up a scheme to kill the four people of Yuan Dong, in Chu Lin's view at the time, they would hardly have any chance of escaping.
Under such circumstances, Chu Lin had already prepared himself to fight desperately or even die here.
Yet unexpectedly, the events happening right now took twists and turns.
He and Sun Xuan not only did not flee in a panic, but even this newly appointed Town Demon Guard commander, who was becoming more and more unfamiliar in his eyes, actually killed all these Qingdan Sect Martial Artists surrounding them with a single Move.
As a result, it seemed that he, Chu Lin, did not have to die right now.
Life's drastic ups and downs came too fast, causing Chu Lin at this moment to feel somewhat dazed for a moment under this mental stimulation.
Compared to Chu Lin's daze, awe towards Sun Xuan, and a sense of rejoicing over surviving a catastrophe at this moment,
the three Town Demon Deputy Commanders including Yuan Dong, as well as the Qingdan Sect's Sect Master Li Changtian, directly became panic-stricken and at a loss.
A single sentence kept echoing in the hearts of these four people, which was:
"This is impossible!"
But no matter how much the four of them refused to believe it, the fact was placed right before their eyes like this.
This newly appointed Town Demon Guard commander Sun Xuan, whom they had set a trap to ambush and kill, was not some little lamb to be pinched and squeezed at will.
Rather, he was a ferocious evil dragon capable of swallowing everyone present.
Panic, regret, and helplessness continuously rose within the hearts of the four people, Yuan Dong and Sect Master Li Changtian.
The fear of death made them want to turn around and flee immediately.
However, including Sect Master Li Changtian of the Late Stage seventh rank Realm, they all knew very well in their hearts that wanting to escape now was completely impossible.
With Sun Xuan's powerful strength of slaughtering dozens of ranked Martial Artists with a single Move, they simply didn't have the slightest chance to flee for their lives.
Compelled by the fear of death, first the three Town Demon Deputy Commanders including Yuan Dong were completely crushed.
Yuan Dong, who had been fierce and crafty just a moment ago, now knelt down onto the ground with a loud thud while tears and snot streamed down, then loudly said to Sun Xuan while weeping bitterly:
"Lord Sun, spare my life! This villain was momentarily blinded by lard and seduced by that Liu Suo, which is why I was possessed by a ghost and made a Move against Lord Sun.
I regret it!
I beg Lord Sun to spare this little one's life. This little one will surely act as a bull and a horse to repay Lord Sun's grace of not killing me.
From now on, I will be a saber in Lord Sun's hands; whoever you tell me to kill, I will kill.
I only beg Lord Sun to spare this little one's life, and this little one will never dare to have today's thoughts ever again!"
