103: Chapter 103: Kill with one strike, battle at Starfall Cliff

Jiang Xuan's cold and irrefutable voice reached the ears of every Disciple in the Holy Land. At this moment, the Disciples felt a raging fire burning in their hearts.

Once upon a time, Holy Land Disciples were also so overbearing and unparalleled, every word and action showcasing the Holy Land's majesty.

However, later, the Holy Land declined, losing its former prestige, and what followed was endless ridicule. This generation of young Disciples of the Holy Land had been holding their breath, and today, they finally welcomed a day of vindication.

Every Disciple's face was flushed red. How long had it been since they had seen such a domineering side of Holy Land Disciples?

All the Disciples looked at Jiang Xuan with adoration, then circulated Qi in their Dantian, transforming the fire in their hearts into fervent words, and shouted in unison at Jian San, "Kneel!"

At this moment, they feared not Jian San's identity, and from now on, they would no longer be afraid! Only because they were Holy Land Disciples!

The other Disciples of the Sword Sect no longer had mocking expressions. They looked at the Holy Land Disciples with astonishment, seeing such firm and fearless eyes for the first time on them.

Suddenly, a trace of fear arose in their hearts.

Yun Ya looked at this scene and sighed in his heart, "From this moment on, the spirit of the Supreme Beginning Holy Land's Disciples has changed. This is the importance of a powerful leader."

Lin Wuyuan and others were delighted. Everyone said that this generation of the Holy Land was a fallen one. Haha, this notion will be completely changed from now on, and all of this is because of one person, a person who can unite the Holy Land Disciples.

At this time, Jian San was already overwhelmed with shame. He clenched his fists tightly, and the humiliation and disgrace in his eyes had reached their limit.

From now on, he, Jian San, would be completely relegated to a laughingstock of the Southern Wilderness, with no chance of rising again. Thinking of this, the anger in his heart could no longer be contained, and his mind was close to losing its reason.

He forgot that this was still the Supreme Beginning Holy Land, and all consequences were thrown to the back of his mind. He now had only one thought, and that was to kill Jiang Xuan. Only by doing so could he appease the raging fire in his heart!

Thinking of this, Jian San, taking advantage of Jiang Xuan's turning, had a sinister look in his eyes, and the spiritual sword in his hand emitted a faint light as he suddenly attacked Jiang Xuan. At this distance, he believed that Jiang Xuan would definitely have no chance to react and would surely die by his sword!

The Disciples reacted and shouted anxiously, "Saint, be careful!"

Lin Wuyuan was furious, "Presumptuous!"

Immediately, the Holy Might around him surged, and he instantly disappeared from his original spot. However, someone was even faster than him. Wu Tian's eyes had always only had Jiang Xuan, and from the moment Jian San's expression began to change, he felt something was wrong.

Wu Tian's eyes blazed with fury, and he struck a palm towards Jian San. He didn't care about the other party's life or death; daring to ambush his Disciple, dying ten thousand times wouldn't be enough.

However, Jiang Xuan would not so easily expose his back to an enemy. The moment Jian San made his move, a smile appeared at the corner of Jiang Xuan's mouth.

Immediately after, the power of space was released, instantly immobilizing Jian San, and he pointed a finger at the latter's forehead.

Jian San's eyes showed intense fear, and just as he opened his mouth to beg for mercy, his Divine Soul was instantly shattered by a powerful force. His eyes changed from terrified to blank, and he collapsed to the ground.

Jiang Xuan glanced at Jian San's corpse and said indifferently, "I never give anyone a second chance."

"Senior Brother Jian San!"

The faces of several Floating Cloud Sword Sect Disciples changed drastically. They rushed to Jian San's side to check his condition and were instantly heartbroken. Senior Brother Jian San, just like that, died?

They couldn't believe that the powerful Senior Brother Jian San in their hearts was so vulnerable in Jiang Xuan's hands.

Sensing Jiang Xuan's cold gaze, they suppressed the anger in their hearts.

"Go back and tell the Floating Cloud Sword Sect that Jian San attempted to ambush this Saint and was detected and killed on the spot by this Saint! Such a morally corrupt Disciple will inevitably bring hidden dangers to the Floating Cloud Sword Sect in the future."

"This Saint, out of consideration for the friendship between the two sects, helped the Sword Sect clean up its own house. There's no need to thank me."

Hearing Jiang Xuan's words, the few people lowered their heads, trembling all over. They picked up Jian San's corpse, stared fixedly at Jiang Xuan, and gritted their teeth, saying, "We will truthfully convey what Saint Jiang Xuan said."

After speaking, they carried Jian San and left towards the Holy Land's mountain gate.

After a long while, the crowd erupted in exclamations, "I didn't expect this Supreme Beginning Saint to be so fierce, defeating Jian San with one sword and then killing him with one move."

"That's right, his strength among the younger generation might be comparable to Sword One of the Floating Cloud Sword Sect and the first direct Disciple of Ninefold Mountain, right?"

"After today, this Jiang Xuan will probably become completely famous. However, he killed Jian San, and the Floating Cloud Sword Sect will not let this matter rest. The direct Disciples of the Sword Sect have always been united."

"What do you mean?"

"Just wait, Jiang Xuan and Sword One will have a battle sooner or later!"

With Jian San's death, the Saint's enthronement ceremony also came to an end. As Cultivators from various places left, what happened today quickly spread throughout the entire Southern Wilderness.

Jiang Xuan's name also became widely known, ranking alongside Meng Ling and others, and he was hailed as one of the Four Great Prodigies of the Southern Wilderness.

As soon as this news came out, Jiang Xuan was instantly pushed to the forefront of public opinion, because his cultivation was only at the mere King Conferring Realm. Except for those who had personally witnessed Jiang Xuan's strength, everyone else had some doubts.

Among them, Jian Er of the Lingyun Sword Sect even made harsh remarks, challenging Jiang Xuan to a fight to the death, regardless of the consequences. It was clear to discerning people that this was to avenge Jian San.

Jiang Xuan scoffed at this news, thinking, "He really thinks he's important. Without some benefit, I'm too lazy to go. Below the Supreme, no one is qualified to be my opponent."

As far as he knew, Jian Er, that idiot, was only an Emperor, and he was ranked second only because his Floating Cloud Sword Intent cultivation was higher than Jian San's.

He had no interest in such trash.

Because Jiang Xuan did not respond for a long time, outsiders thought he was scared, and Jian Er constantly released messages mocking Jiang Xuan.

For a time, Jiang Xuan's reputation plummeted, and some people believed that he was unworthy of the title of one of the Four Great Prodigies of the Southern Wilderness.

A month later, a Holy Land Disciple brought a message, "Jiang Xuan, if you want the lives of the three of Nine Li, come to Starfall Cliff in three days!"

"Whoosh!"

After reading the text of the letter in his hand, Jiang Xuan crumpled it casually, and the paper instantly burned, the flickering flames clashing with his calm face.

However, a monstrous killing intent had already surged in his heart, like a volcano about to erupt, filled with a dangerous aura.

"Heh heh, I originally didn't want to bother, but someone just had to seek death! You've been hopping around for so long, I'll grant your wish."

Not long after, a piece of news spread throughout the Southern Wilderness: Jiang Xuan would fight Jian Er to the death at Starfall Cliff in three days!

For a time, the Southern Wilderness was in an uproar, their eyes revealing excitement. After a month, Jiang Xuan finally responded. Whether Jiang Xuan would firmly hold his position as one of the Four Great Prodigies or prove to be unworthy of the title would depend on this battle.

In the Lingyun Sword Sect, Jian Er heard the news, and a hint of killing intent flashed in his eyes, "Jiang Xuan, you coward, have you finally decided to come out? In three days, I will definitely use your blood to honor Jian San!"
