146: Chapter 146 Wen Jingci, Death

Seeing King Guiyuan perish, the Ninth-Grade Supremes of the Jin Kingdom were still fairly calm.

Since Wen Jingci lowered his head, they knew King Guiyuan was doomed.

Without the protection of the Jin Kingdom, Li Yuan would definitely kill him.

What they wanted to know now was how Li Yuan would treat them.

Judging by Wen Jingci's reaction, Li Yuan truly had the strength to make them all die.

This point was very clear.

Wen Jingci had occupied the position of the number one Supreme for many years, and he valued his reputation and prestige immensely.

Yet today, he was actually willing to lower his head in front of everyone.

This showed just how severe the current crisis was.

"Congratulations to Supreme Li Yuan on avenging your grievance. We have disturbed you much today and will say no more here.

The Jin and Shun Kingdoms will surely coexist peacefully in the future, maintaining the current status quo without wavering..."

Wen Jingci spoke up at this moment, and after saying this, he wanted to leave.

Unfortunately, Li Yuan had no intention of letting him leave just like that.

"Supreme Wen just said that he would join forces with this Ning Feichi to capture me."

Li Yuan looked at Wen Jingci and asked.

The Li Yuan before him was like an immortal deity standing between heaven and earth, able to decide his fate with a wave of his hand.

And this question was like a death warrant for him.

He had harbored killing intent toward Li Yuan and wanted to assist Ning Feichi in dealing with him.

Would Li Yuan let him off so easily?

The answer seemed already present in his heart; at that instant, Wen Jingci struck.

Ink-like mist began to permeate around him, which then condensed and gathered.

An Ink Mountain appeared before everyone just like that.

Boom!

With a loud bang, this magnificent Ink Mountain pressed down toward Li Yuan.

As the Ink Mountain smashed over, Wen Jingci moved toward the distance even faster.

Two Ink Fish appeared by his side, carrying him away rapidly.

Wen Jingci pushed his movement technique to the limit.

Flee, flee for his life!

The doubts he couldn't understand before were all clear now.

Why Yan Louchuan and the others always had a sneer on their faces when they heard Wen Jingci's words.

They had always known how vast the gap between the two was.

Wen Jingci spoke those arrogant words, and what awaited him in the end would surely be a great loss.

Wen Jingci had only fled half a mile when the Ink Fish by his side instantly turned back into ink.

This seemingly impressive movement technique was instantly subdued.

Next, Li Yuan was already standing by his side.

From Li Yuan's side, Wen Jingci felt an even more terrifying pressure.

It was a pressure even stronger than Ning Feichi's, an Aura far exceeding a Ninth-Grade Supreme.

"How can a golden dragon be a creature of a mere pond?" Ning Feichi, who prided himself on not being a creature of a pond, had an Aura that was a far cry from Li Yuan's.

Li Yuan Cultivated the Tai Xuan Divine Art, which was several times more profound than his Tianyuan Cultivation Method.

The level of refinement to which Li Yuan had tempered his martial Internal Energy also far surpassed Ning Feichi's meager Internal Energy.

If Wen Jingci regarded Ning Feichi as a "Tenth-Grade" Martial Artist...

...then Li Yuan would likely have to be rated as "Twelfth Grade."

The sword's edge in his hand did not hesitate much, piercing through Wen Jingci's vital point.

This number one Supreme, who had ruled the Jin Kingdom for many years, lost his life just like that.

Compared to Amber Sovereign, he was even less fortunate.

Before coming here, Li Yuan's strength had improved another step, fully entering the Ninth Grade Great Perfection.

The huge gap in martial Realms made it difficult for Wen Jingci to save his life even with all his effort.

Pursuing the ultimate cause, it was still Wen Jingci's killing intent toward Li Yuan.

Li Yuan had always believed in repaying virtue with virtue and grievance with justice.

Since he wanted to harm him, he could only return the favor.

Feeling his life force rapidly draining away, Wen Jingci's face was full of regret.

Immediately after, the regret in his eyes turned into emptiness.

The dignified number one Supreme of the Jin Kingdom had actually died just like that.

The secret agents sent by the surrounding nations and forces must have been terrified by this scene as well.

Everyone was here to watch the negotiations between the Jin and Shun Kingdoms.

Conflicts were likely to arise during negotiations, and in the face of these conflicts, it was possible for both sides to come to blows.

However, the fact that a Ninth-Grade Supreme perished was truly something they hadn't expected.

Li Yuan's slaying of Wen Jingci also announced that the century-long dispute between the Shun Kingdom and the Jin Kingdom finally had a clear winner.

It was now certain that the Jin Kingdom was a level lower than the Shun Kingdom.

With Wen Jingci dead, Li Yuan looked up at the other Ninth-Grade Supremes of the Jin Kingdom.

At this time, these Ninth-Grade Supremes of the Jin Kingdom were like birds startled by a bow.

Just a couple of glances from Li Yuan made them each scared to death.

"Wen Jingci is dead. Who among you can take charge now?"

Li Yuan just looked at the Jin Kingdom Supremes, waiting for their answer.

Several Ninth-Grade Supremes of the Jin Kingdom looked at each other, clearly shirking responsibility and not daring to step forward to answer.

In the end, it was the Grand Preceptor of Jin Kingdom who, constrained by his status as Grand Preceptor, stepped forward.

"If Supreme Li Yuan has any instructions, please speak plainly.

There is no life-and-death grudge between us and the Supreme..."

Li Yuan waved his hand, signaling him to stop talking for now.

"The border between the Shun and Jin Kingdoms will maintain the status quo for three years. Any problems?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the Ninth-Grade Supremes of the Jin Kingdom were all startled.

The Jin Kingdom had just lost its number one Supreme, and Li Yuan was still willing to maintain the status quo with them?

Without hesitation, the Grand Preceptor of Jin Kingdom immediately agreed.

"If anyone in the Jin Kingdom violates this, there's no need for Supreme Li to act; we will destroy them ourselves!"

Being able to maintain the status quo between the two countries was definitely the greatest stroke of luck for them.

Yan Louchuan and the others had doubts about Li Yuan's decision.

But doubts aside, no one dared to stand up and question him on the spot.

After arranging all this, Li Yuan had Dean Guo and the others take King Guiyuan's corpse back.

To use it as an offering to his deceased relatives.

Aside from this matter, what Li Yuan needed to focus on most urgently was still the Tianqiong Continent.

Now that Ning Feichi was dead, the power behind him should have already received the news.

After all, both the Jin and Shun Kingdoms had methods for nurturing Life Tablets.

When a person dies, their Life Tablet shatters.

The impression the Tianqiong Continent gave was that it was a place where martial arts were more prevalent and powerful.

There, such methods and means should be common.

Once the power behind him learns the news, they might come looking for him before long.

Li Yuan did not want to sit and wait for death.

Knowing that a crisis might be coming, he had to prepare.

From the information Li Yuan obtained, this Ning Feichi was not particularly valued.

Even within the Lanyuan Sect, he was likely just a marginal Martial Artist.

When such a marginal Disciple dies, the Sect's level of concern wouldn't be very high.

But looking back, it was still a bit frightening that a Martial Artist like Ning Feichi, who wasn't very highly regarded, possessed such strength.

Then what kind of strength did the mainstays of the Lanyuan Sect have?

However, Ning Feichi was no longer young.

Much of the strength he had now was ground out over time.

In that Tianqiong Continent, if the younger generation could reach the Ninth Grade, they shouldn't be too bad either.

With today's matters resolved, Li Yuan first took King Guiyuan's corpse to pay respects to his kinsmen.

After the memorial service ended, Li Yuan devoted all his time to Cultivation.
