Chapter 3692: The Joyful Ling Jian Yi

Ling Jianyi was startled, then burst into hearty laughter.

This slap was incredibly satisfying, completely wiping away the humiliation from a century ago.

Previously, when they faced people from the other Three Great Sects, they always had to lower their heads, especially when facing the strongest Ice Cloud Valley, they had always endured in silence.

Today was different; with the Supreme Sect Leader standing behind him, he had the courage to advance without hesitation.

Doing whatever he wanted, striking whenever he pleased—this feeling of avenging grievances brought him satisfaction from head to toe.

Looking at the enraged Leng Hanchuan, he burst into laughter again: “If you’re not convinced, then come at me!”

“You defeated foe, you’re looking for death!”

Leng Hanchuan’s eyes blazed with fury; he was convinced that he had been struck because the other party had launched a sneak attack, otherwise, he could never have been his opponent.

He unleashed his full strength, striking out with a palm directly towards the other party’s Face, intending to completely trample the opponent underfoot and reclaim the Face he had just lost.

Ling Jianyi did not back down, nor did he draw his sword; he stepped forward and met the attack with a punch.

Seeing that the other party actually dared to meet him head-on, Leng Hanchuan gritted his teeth, increasing his power by several points, almost unleashing his full strength.

He wanted to make the other party lose in one move, to make him look foolish in one move.

In almost the blink of an eye, the two men’s fists clashed head-on.

With a loud bang, a figure flew backward, and it was Leng Hanchuan.

Although he was a top-tier Great Luo Immortal (Middle Stage), compared to the current Ling Jianyi, he was ultimately a Rank lower, and he was defeated in a single move.

This punch not only sent him flying dozens of feet away, but it also caused his Qi and blood to churn, and a trace of blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

Leng Hanchuan’s Face was filled with shock: “You… you’ve actually reached the Great Luo Immortal (Late Stage)!”

It was no wonder he was so shocked; the Four Great Sects were all in Dile Heaven, and they were familiar with each other.

Especially this Four Great Sects battle, which had allowed them to thoroughly understand each other’s true capabilities.

According to the information obtained by the Sect, Ling Jianyi was still a Great Luo Immortal (Middle Stage).

This also made sense; generally, it takes at least several hundred years to Breakthrough from Great Luo Immortal (Middle Stage) to Late Stage, so not having a Breakthrough was normal.

But he never expected that the other person had just made a Breakthrough, and his strength firmly suppressed his own.

Seeing the other party’s shocked expression, Ling Jianyi felt even more satisfied and burst into laughter again.

“How about it? Are you convinced now?”

“Ling Jianyi, don’t celebrate too soon.”

Leng Hanchuan wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and after a brief shock, he quickly regained his composure. “Don’t think that just because you, an individual, fortunately made a Breakthrough, you’re so incredible. Don’t forget that your Lingyun Sword Sect is the weakest, and our Ice Cloud Valley is the strongest.

Now, kneel down and apologize to me, and then present that woman with both hands, and I can let this matter go.

Otherwise, if I report it to my Master, saying that your Lingyun Sword Sect dared to offend me, then during the grand competition, we will show no mercy, and none of your five participants will survive.”

This fellow spoke through gritted teeth, and the more he spoke, the more confident he became.

Normally, this was indeed the case; generally, such Sect grand competitions would not involve Killing Intent, but it did not restrict killing.

Although the current Ling Jianyi had reached the Great Luo Immortal (Late Stage), relying on one person to contend with their Ice Cloud Valley was far from enough.

In his opinion, these words were enough to deter the entire Lingyun Sword Sect.

The onlookers also felt that this should be the case, as the Lingyun Sword Sect simply did not have the strength or courage to challenge Ice Cloud Valley.

However, a hint of disdain flashed in Ling Jianyi’s eyes. Three days ago, this threat would have been enough to make the Lingyun Sword Sect bow its head, after all, Face was far less important than the lives of five Core Disciples.

But now, things were completely different; with the Supreme Sect Leader as their backing, the only one who could kneel and beg for mercy was the other party.

“Less nonsense, either come and fight, or get lost!”

“You…”

Leng Hanchuan’s Face turned ashen from being retorted; he never expected the other party to be so unyielding.

“Ling Jianyi, how dare you! Can you represent the Lingyun Sword Sect? Can you bear the consequences?”

In his mind, this was entirely Ling Jianyi’s personal stubbornness and absolutely could not be the Lingyun Sword Sect’s decision.

And just then, a majestic voice came from mid-air.

“What consequences can my Lingyun Sword Sect not bear?”

As soon as the words fell, Ling Jianfeng descended from mid-air with the others.

Upon seeing his arrival, Leng Hanchuan was not surprised but rather filled with joy.

As the Fifth Elder of the Sect, Ling Jianyi could be arrogant and reckless, but Ling Jianfeng certainly could not.

As the Sect Master of a Sect, he had to consider the Sect’s interests in everything and act for the greater good, so he would definitely not dare to offend himself and Ice Cloud Valley.

“Sect Master Ling, it’s good that you’re here!”

Leng Hanchuan said with a full Aura, “Ling Jianyi just offended me. As compensation, I want him to kneel and apologize, isn’t that too much?

I want him to hand over that newly taken female Disciple, isn’t that too much?”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed at Luo Bingyan: “Do as I say, and this matter will end here, otherwise, if I report it to my Master, you will not be able to bear the consequences.

If you anger Ice Cloud Valley, none of your five Core Disciples will survive this Four Great Sects battle!”

Seeing this fellow trying to intimidate them by invoking a powerful figure, Ye Bufan just smiled and watched; such a minor character was not worth his intervention now.

Seeing that Luo Bingyan was involved, Ling Jianfeng’s expression immediately darkened.

“Ignorant child with blind eyes, how dare you act so arrogantly here!”

As soon as the words fell, the Immortal Essence large hand had already grabbed over, seizing the opponent and throwing him heavily to the ground.

“Someone, break his limbs!”

At Ling Jianfeng’s command, Disciples from the Sect immediately rushed forward, holding down Leng Hanchuan’s limbs.

“What are you doing?”

Leng Hanchuan was truly scared this time, his Face turning pale with fright.

He had originally thought that by revealing his hidden trump card, even if he couldn’t scare Ling Jianyi, he could at least scare Ling Jianfeng, but he never expected such a reaction from the other party.

He really couldn’t understand what was going on today; not only did Ling Jianyi ignore him, but even Ling Jianfeng had become so furious.

“Who dares to touch me? I am the Personal Disciple of the Ice Cloud Valley’s Sect Master, the future successor!”

“Do it!”

Ling Jianfeng’s voice was cold, completely unmoved.

Immediately, several more enforcement Disciples stepped forward, carrying spiked clubs in their hands, their Killing Intent palpable.

Seeing that his limbs were truly about to be crippled, Leng Hanchuan became even more panicked.

“Sect Master Ling, this is not a joke. If you dare to cripple me, it will trigger a war between the two Great Sects…

Whoever dares to touch me, my Master will not let you off…

Stop quickly, I am a participant Disciple in this Sect grand battle. If you injure me, my qualification to participate will be revoked…”

This fellow was flustered, continuously throwing out various trump cards, hoping to save his limbs.

The first few points were clearly useless, but when the last words came out, Ye Bufan’s eyebrows slightly raised.

The purpose of incorporating the Lingyun Sword Sect was to obtain the participation token for the Hundred Sects Hegemony Battle; this goal could not be affected no matter what.

He raised his hand and waved, and the enforcement Disciples immediately stopped.

After the battle yesterday, Ye Bufan had now established the highest authority within the entire Sect, and no one dared to disobey him.

Seeing that his threat finally had an effect, Leng Hanchuan breathed a long sigh of relief.

But before he could even rejoice, Ye Bufan said lightly: “Slap him a hundred times, then make him scram!”
