127: Chapter 127 Harm my disciple, and I'll slaughter your entire sect!
That figure in green robes stepped out from the torn void just like that.
He walked with his hands behind his back, one step, another step.
There was no earth-shattering aura, no phenomenon of manifesting laws; he walked as if he were strolling in a courtyard after a meal.
But as his first step landed.
Yuwen Ji's Taixu Domain, capable of suppressing heaven and earth, emitted a faint sound like shattering glass, and a crack appeared out of thin air.
The second step landed.
The crack spread like a spiderweb, and the entire domain shook violently.
Thousands of invisible cyan sword intents, originating from who knows where, filled every corner of the world.
They were not sharp, yet they carried an absolute will that could sever eternity, arrogantly and unreasonably pushing away Yuwen Ji's power of laws!
The invisible divine mountain shrouding Lin Yuan vanished in an instant.
The pressure suddenly vanished.
Lin Yuan felt a sweetness in his throat and his body swayed violently, but his spine, which had been bent to its limit, straightened up like a spear at this moment!
Inside Purple Dragon City, all the experts watching the battle felt their hearts gripped by an invisible hand, unable to breathe or think.
At the Qin Family residence.
Qin Zhenyue's tense body suddenly relaxed, and he sat heavily back in his chair; the armrest he had crushed into powder silently spoke of the thrill he had just experienced.
"That madman... has finally arrived."
On the ruins of the Baili Family, the morbid ecstasy that had just appeared on the faces of the surviving clansmen instantly froze, turning into bone-chilling cold and despair.
The Azure Nether Sword Emperor!
That peerless madman who protects his own so unreasonably!
Yuwen Ji's pupils constricted sharply at this moment.
He naturally knew of Qing Ming.
A two-star Emperor Realm, an existence inferior to himself in cultivation realm.
But this guy was a monster with dual talents that only appeared once in ten thousand years!
Flawless Sword Heart, invincible among the same rank.
His Psychic Power can manifest a Heavenly Sword in a single thought, capable of slaying Emperors across ranks!
Qing Ming did not look at him, nor did he even glance around.
He walked to Lin Yuan's side, his gaze lingering for a moment on his disciple, who was covered in blood.
His wounds were deep enough to see the bone, his dragon scale armor was more than half shattered, and his aura had decayed to the extreme.
Yet those eyes were still frighteningly bright, burning with unyielding fire and monstrous killing intent.
There was still no expression on Qing Ming's face.
He simply reached out and gently patted Lin Yuan on the shoulder.
"You did well."
His words were plain, yet they sounded like the statement of a supreme truth of heaven and earth.
"My disciple, Qing Ming's disciple, does not need to explain to anyone for killing an Emperor Realm trash."
This sentence was even more overbearing and arrogant than the thousands of sword intents that tore apart the domain!
The whole city was dead silent!
Everyone was stunned into a blank state by Qing Ming's words.
An Emperor Realm Expert, the patriarch of the Baili Imperial Clan, an existence with a thousand-year legacy, was merely a... "trash" in his mouth?
Killed, and no need to explain?
This was no longer just protecting his own; this was treating the rules of the world as nothing!
Yuwen Ji's face sank completely.
"Qing Ming! You are openly shielding a criminal!"
"This child killed innocents indiscriminately, beheaded the Imperial Clan patriarch in public, and shook the foundation of the nation! As a member of the Taixu Imperial Clan, I should naturally take action to restore order!"
He brought out righteousness, attempting to use the rules to suppress him.
However.
Qing Ming finally slowly raised his head, his calm eyes falling on Yuwen Ji's face for the first time.
He sneered.
The laughter was full of undisguised contempt and mockery.
"The foundation of the nation?"
The ordinary-looking wooden sword at his waist suddenly emitted a slight hum.
In an instant.
The entire sky was filled with billions of solidified cyan sword shadows, the edge of each sword shadow precisely locking onto a vital point of Yuwen Ji's soul.
"Old thing, I only know one thing."
"You touched my disciple."
"Therefore, you must pay with your life."
Mad!
This was undisguised, bone-deep madness!
Saying "You must pay with your life" in front of a supreme six-star Emperor Realm existence!
The whole city lost its voice.
Everyone was shaken to their very souls by Qing Ming's unreasonable tyranny.
Yuwen Ji's anger was completely ignited by this sentence; his Emperor Realm pressure rose again, colliding fiercely with the sky full of sword shadows, emitting explosive sounds of laws like clashing metal!
"Qing Ming! Do you really want to fight my Taixu Imperial Clan to the death for a mere brat?!"
"Today, I will kill him!"
"You can try."
Qing Ming took a step forward.
Just one step.
The space behind him completely transformed into a pure world of swords.
Endless sword intent soared into the sky, tearing Yuwen Ji's Taixu Domain to pieces.
His voice became incomparably chilling, as if it came from the Nine Nether Springs.
"If you kill him."
"I will enter your Yuwen family's ancestral land, and from top to bottom, I will slaughter your entire clan, leaving no chicken or dog alive."
"Then, I will hunt you down."
"To the heavens above or the springs below, until death!"
Madman!
A complete madman!
The Emperor Realm laws that Yuwen Ji had half-condensed forcibly stalled in mid-air.
He did not doubt for a second that Qing Ming could do what he said!
This man was a sword of madness born for the Dao of the Sword, with absolutely no worldly attachments or scruples!
Use the entire Taixu Imperial Clan to trade for the life of a King Realm junior?
He could not afford this price!
Two great Emperor Realm Experts fell into a terrifying standoff above Purple Dragon City.
Laws were in conflict, and sword intents were clashing.
Above the sky, one half was the Taixu starry sky flowing with silver light, and the other half was the endless sword domain filled with cyan energy.
The collision of these two forces made heaven and earth lose their color, and the sun and moon lose their light!
Just in this suffocating standoff.
Lin Yuan, who had been silent all along, suddenly moved.
He slowly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, raised his head, and looked past his master, staring straight at the high and mighty figure in mid-air.
His voice was hoarse from his severe injuries, but every word clearly spread throughout the entire scene.
"Yuwen Ji."
Lin Yuan spoke calmly, as if he were stating a fact that was about to happen.
"I have noted today's humiliation."
"Three years."
He paused, every word ringing out like gold and stone hitting the ground.
"I will ascend to your Imperial Clan's mountain gate, personally behead your Dharma Idol, and destroy your Emperor body!"
Silence.
Deathly silence.
Everyone thought something was wrong with their ears.
A King Realm six-star junior, issuing a death declaration to a supreme six-star Emperor Realm existence?!
And, setting a deadline!
This was not arrogance; this was the most thorough trampling on the dignity of the Emperor Realm!
Yuwen Ji was stunned at first, then felt a wave of absurdity and anger.
This was humiliation!
It was a more naked humiliation than Qing Ming's threat!
An ant was declaring to him, the dragon overlooking the world, that it would tear him apart in three years!
"Haha... Hahahaha!"
A burst of wild laughter broke the dead silence.
Qing Ming laughed up at the sky, laughing so hard he swayed back and forth, feeling completely unrestrained.
He suddenly turned his head to look at his daring disciple, his eyes filled with undisguised approval.
"You've got guts!"
"This is what my, Qing Ming's, disciple should be!"
And in a corner that no one noticed.
Inside Lin Yuan's body, the guixu black lotus was spinning crazily at an unprecedented speed.
Wisps of extremely pure Emperor Realm origin, still carrying the lingering remnants of Emperor Realm laws, were being silently extracted and refined from deep within the earth where Baili Jiang had fallen, continuously pouring into his Star Sea.
The barrier of the King Realm six-star peak, under the impact of this massive energy, had quietly revealed its first crack.
