440: Kill Destiny's Child Again
Ye Xi was no longer just seeking revenge for Yin Rourou.
He also needed to escape with his life!
If he wanted to escape from this encirclement, the first thing to do was to defeat, or even kill, the Lin Ye before him.
Only in this way could he cause the members of the Flying Feather Holy Land who had come here to fall into chaos.
Seizing that sliver of an opportunity was Ye Xi's best chance to escape.
The remnant soul within him clearly thought the same; even though it was suppressed by that intent of Killing, it still continuously released its lingering power.
All of this was to ensure Ye Xi could escape from here.
Boom, boom, boom...
The collision between the sword radiance and the Yin and Yang energy caused this region of heaven and earth to continuously emit explosive sounds, and both Ye Xi and Lin Ye were obscured by that light.
No one knew exactly what was happening within the light.
Whether it was the people of the Wuding Sect or the Flying Feather Holy Sect, they all wore anxious expressions at this moment.
The people of the Wuding Sect were even more terrified.
They weren't terrified by Ye Xi's combat power that could rival Lin Ye's, but rather by how deeply Ye Xi had hidden his strength. If Lin Ye suffered any damage, wouldn't their Wuding Sect be truly finished?
Watching his daughter's head lying on the ground, the Sect Leader of the Wu Ding Sect had no change in his expression other than deep sorrow in his eyes.
The person was gone; his daughter had died, but the Wuding Sect still remained!
Even if there was only a sliver of hope, he wished for the Wuding Sect to survive. But before that, the first thing was that Lin Ye must not be harmed!
As a Divine Son, if he were to be injured by Ye Xi, there was no need to think about it—the Flying Feather Holy Sect would overturn their Wuding Sect's ancestral graves.
Just as everyone was deep in thought, the light covering the heavens and earth slowly dissipated, revealing the two figures inside.
"It's Ye Xi!!!"
When the people of the Wuding Sect saw the first figure revealed, their faces showed conflicted expressions; on one hand, they were happy that Ye Xi was alive, but on the other, they were worried about the fury of the Flying Feather Holy Sect.
But very quickly, they discovered the problem.
Although Ye Xi was indeed standing there, his body swayed slightly, and fresh blood was constantly dripping from various parts of his body.
"Ye... Ye Xi?"
An Elder of the Wuding Sect walked forward, seemingly wanting to check on Ye Xi's condition, but as soon as he reached Ye Xi, he widened his eyes.
At this moment, Ye Xi was covered in wounds from head to toe.
Fresh blood gushed out; it seemed that Lin Ye's Sword Qi from just a moment ago had even shattered his Qi Sea, and the Dao Rhyme on Ye Xi's body was flowing away frantically.
"Ye Xi!!! You..."
Just as the Elder wanted to say something, he felt a presence behind him. He hurriedly turned around, only to see a smiling Lin Ye appearing behind him.
In a panic, the Elder couldn't even say anything more and his figure vanished instantly.
Lin Ye did not pay any attention to that Elder and instead slowly walked up to Ye Xi.
At this moment, the soaring aura on Ye Xi's body had begun to gradually disappear, and even the remnant soul had become extremely weak.
Only to hear the remnant soul speak in disbelief: "You, how is this possible?! Not only do you have the Pacifying Chaos Sword Art, but your body also carries the aura of the Killing Life Tathagata! And that Upright Qi! Who exactly are you?!"
Hearing this, the corners of Lin Ye's mouth curled up slightly, and he chuckled: "You don't need to know who I am, but I am somewhat interested in you."
"You are from the Nether Race, aren't you?"
"Hmm?!"
The remnant soul's tone was filled with even more astonishment.
The Nether Race was a clan that had been hiding in the shadows since the ancient times; logically, it was impossible for anyone to know about them.
But how could Lin Ye perceive that she was from the Nether Race?
This wasn't because Lin Ye was well-versed in ancient texts, but rather because when the remnant soul on Lin Yu appeared previously, Lin Ye had observed that remnant soul's panel.
He was of the Nether Race!
The aura of this remnant soul on Ye Xi was exactly the same as that of the Nether Race.
In other words, the two belonged to the same race.
"What exactly does your Nether Race want to do? Seek out those who bear the Son of Destiny, and then possess their bodies?"
"..."
The remnant soul didn't know what to say anymore; she hadn't expected Lin Ye to know everything, even about those who bore the Son of Destiny.
Ye Xi was standing in place as if he had lost consciousness, letting Lin Ye converse with the remnant soul.
"What relationship do you have with the Spirit Race?!"
Upon hearing this, the phantom of the remnant soul began to fluctuate violently.
Seeing the remnant soul fluctuating continuously yet still not speaking, Lin Ye already knew his answer.
Hum...
Blood-colored light covered the sky and earth, and a phantom appeared behind Lin Ye. That phantom extended a hand, slowly reaching toward the remnant soul.
"Killing Life Tathagata?! No! No!!!"
The remnant soul roared out, but she had already lost the chance to dodge. The hand extended by that phantom tightly gripped the remnant soul.
The blood light flared intensely!
As the blood light became increasingly dense, eventually forming a thick blood mist, the remnant soul was stripped out from Ye Xi's body.
"Revered Master!!!"
After the remnant soul was stripped away, Ye Xi regained consciousness. Ignoring the pain in his body, he wanted to kill Lin Ye!
But even with the Fusion of the remnant soul, he couldn't rival Lin Ye before, let alone now.
Swish!!!
As the sword light flashed, a large amount of blood energy burst out from Ye Xi's chest. He didn't even have time to scream before falling backward.
At the same time, the remnant soul was completely stripped out by the phantom behind Lin Ye.
The next moment, the remnant soul completely merged into Lin Ye's body.
"People of the Nether Race are quite a nourishing supplement..."
The red light in Lin Ye's eyes flared intensely. After absorbing the remnant soul, he turned his gaze toward Ye Xi, who was lying on the ground heavily injured.
"Lin... Lin Ye!!!"
Ye Xi's face was full of ferocity; he hadn't expected to lose so thoroughly today, and to someone of the same generation at that.
He wanted to take out a spatial talisman from his qiankun ring to escape, but Lin Ye seemed to already know his methods.
As the sword light flashed and blood sprayed, the hand Ye Xi used to wear the qiankun ring had been severed.
Lin Ye looked down at Ye Xi from above and spoke with an indifferent tone: "You had your chances, but you shouldn't have, you absolutely shouldn't have, killed those Junior Brothers and Junior Sisters of mine. Whether it is Yin Rourou or you, both must atone for the mistakes you have committed."
"Those of the Demonic Path must be executed!"
Hearing this, Ye Xi sneered: "You are the biggest demon; you..."
Pfft!!!
A sound of flesh being pierced rang out.
Before Ye Xi could finish his sentence, he was decapitated by Lin Ye with a single sword strike.
Ding dong...
Congratulations to the host for killing the Son of Destiny.
Congratulations to the host for killing the Daughter of Destiny.
Congratulations to the host for killing a powerful remnant soul.
Congratulations to the host for obtaining Demon-Slaying System points...
Hearing the rewards prompted by the System, Lin Ye said softly: "See, you really are a demon; the Demon-Slaying System has even issued rewards. Sigh... You hid yourself a bit too deeply."
