156: A sword to kill
Sect Leader Zixu immediately objected.
“No.”
There was no reason.
It just wasn't allowed.
He knew Yang Yi was powerful.
He could even kill a Sect Master.
How many people were his match?
Did they have to invite the Old Monster of the Sect to come forward?
Wasn't this intentionally giving Yang Yi a way out?
The second person to object was the disheveled woman.
The woman knelt down in front of Jin Qiuyan, crying and wiping her tears.
“Sect Master, this really won’t do.”
“If he luckily wins,”
“won't my husband's revenge be unfulfilled?”
The woman beside Jin Qiuyan said coldly:
“Do you think our Jinling Family will lose?”
“What kind of decorum is this, crying and sniffling?”
These words attracted the attention of Yang Yi and the others.
From her tone,
it seemed she was very confident she could defeat Yang Yi.
Cang Jiuzhou’s eyes narrowed.
He quietly looked at the cold woman who had just spoken.
“Are you going to act personally?”
The cold woman frowned, glaring annoyed at Cang Jiuzhou.
She nodded slightly.
With her nod,
the scene suddenly fell silent.
Manxin Old Ancestor’s brows furrowed slightly.
“Who are you?”
The cold woman stood up.
She bowed slightly.
“This Junior is Old Ancestor Jin Xiao Zhi’s granddaughter, Jin Yanxi.”
“She’s still alive?”
“Alive.” The cold woman finished speaking.
Then she quietly sat down.
She held her head high and puffed out her chest.
Her arrogance was obvious.
Yang Yi was still wondering who this woman was.
What ability did she have to make the scene silent with just one sentence?
Just then,
Sect Leader Zixu suddenly stood up.
“Since Jin Yanxi, you are willing to come forward,”
“then this matter is settled.”
“I will now return to Diancang Sect to invite people over.”
After speaking, he looked at Cang Jiuzhou again.
“Let’s go back together.”
Cang Jiuzhou did not answer immediately.
He remained silent for a moment.
Then he nodded.
The two people left the Jinling Family and walked back.
On the way,
Sect Leader Zixu was in a great mood.
He took out his wine gourd and took a big gulp.
“Once Jin Yanxi comes forward,”
“Yang Yi will surely be slain.”
This time, we can rest assured.
Cang Jiuzhou also agreed to this matter precisely because Jin Yanxi was willing to act.
But he felt a faint worry in his heart.
“That’s true,”
“but don’t forget the relationship between Manxin Old Ancestor and the Jinling Family.”
“With us leaving like this,”
“who knows if things will change.”
“Why don’t I go back and check?”
He asked tentatively.
Sect Leader Zixu’s sharp gaze fell on Cang Jiuzhou.
His tone was slightly sinister.
“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking.”
“Since you’re so worried,”
“then let’s hurry back.”
He didn't trust Cang Jiuzhou to return to the Jinling Family.
If that guy went back,
the changes might be even greater.
It was better to keep him by his side.
To prevent Cang Jiuzhou from secretly running back,
he first followed Cang Jiuzhou back to Opening Heaven Gate.
After selecting the person to fight Yang Yi,
the three of them returned to Diancang Sect.
Subsequently, the four people headed to the Jinling Family.
At this moment, in the Jinling Family, Manxin Old Ancestor and Yang Yi were arranged in a small courtyard.
Although the courtyard was small, it was fully equipped and extremely luxurious.
In the very center of this small courtyard,
there was a ten-meter-tall artificial Sophora japonica.
The trunk of the Sophora japonica was mainly gold.
The leaves were made of various pearls and agates.
It was dazzling during the day.
At night, it was colorful.
This could no longer be called a tree.
It was a symbol of wealth.
After the two people moved into the small courtyard,
the people of the Jinling Family no longer interacted with them.
Except for the servants who brought them food,
no one else came to visit them.
Everyone seemed to maintain a tacit understanding.
When Sect Leader Zixu and the others arrived at the Jinling Family again,
they demanded that Jin Qiuyan call Yang Yi out.
They could no longer wait.
They wanted to start the battle as soon as possible.
Jin Qiuyan was not in a hurry.
She told them to rest for a day.
The battle would be tomorrow.
Sect Leader Zixu questioned and refused.
He said he wasn't tired at all.
He insisted on fighting Yang Yi to the death today.
Helplessly,
Jin Qiuyan could only send someone to invite Yang Yi and Manxin Old Ancestor.
She also gathered the people of the Family together.
This battle was a contest between powerhouses.
The Disciples of the Family watching this battle
could also learn a thing or two from it.
After everyone had arrived,
the battle was about to begin.
Jin Yanxi stood coldly beside Jin Qiuyan.
She had no intention of acting.
She planned to act last.
If the first two people could kill Yang Yi,
then she wouldn’t need to come forward.
Sect Leader Zixu and Cang Jiuzhou exchanged glances.
Neither was willing to send their own person first.
Although the two didn’t say a word,
they had already communicated countless times with their eyes.
Neither would yield to the other.
After a long stalemate,
the two people behind them became a bit impatient.
These two people had long heard of Yang Yi's various deeds.
They were unconvinced in their hearts.
Being able to fight Yang Yi today
was also fulfilling their wish.
The Disciple of Opening Heaven Gate stepped forward first.
His gaze was sharp.
“You are Yang Yi.”
“I’ve wanted to fight you for a long time.”
“Today, don’t hold anything back.”
“Use whatever abilities you have.”
Yang Yi held the Seven Injury Divine Sword in his hand.
He nodded slightly.
The Disciple of Opening Heaven Gate leaped.
He landed in front of Yang Yi.
As soon as he stood firm,
Yang Yi’s Seven Injury Divine Sword had already struck out.
An extremely ordinary sword strike.
The sword came out.
The sword returned.
In one second,
Yang Yi had already completed the action.
Smooth as flowing water.
Looking at the person opposite,
his eyes had changed from bright and spirited to dim and lifeless.
With a thud.
He knelt on both knees.
The clothes on his chest ripped with a tearing sound.
A gash appeared.
Blood flowed out from the gash.
The ground was stained red with blood.
Yang Yi slightly raised his head.
He looked at the people of Diancang Sect and beckoned.
“It’s your turn.”
The person from Diancang Sect did not move forward.
His throat swallowed.
Just now, he had wanted to be the first to fight Yang Yi.
But now,
he didn't dare.
He had a good relationship with the person from Opening Heaven Gate.
They would even spar sometimes when they had nothing to do.
Their strengths were evenly matched.
If he couldn’t block Yang Yi’s single sword strike,
he naturally couldn’t either.
What should he do?
Should he go forward bravely,
or admit defeat and save his life?
After a moment of hesitation,
he made a wise choice.
“I admit defeat.”
As soon as these three words came out,
everyone looked at him with disdain.
Sect Leader Zixu was even more furious, cursing loudly.
“Useless, get out.”
This person left the Jinling Family with a Dirty.
Cang Jiuzhou, beside him, was pale with anger.
He cursed Sect Leader Zixu in his heart, calling him a complete idiot.
This bastard.
He just let him go like that?
Looking at the corpse on the ground,
he secretly cursed his own person for being stupid.
Are you an idiot?
How much does this matter have to do with you?
What did I tell you before I came?
Why couldn’t you just endure it,
and let the person from Diancang Sect act first?
If they had acted first,
you would have kept your life.
“Jin Yanxi, it’s your turn.”
Sect Leader Zixu placed his last hope on Jin Yanxi.
Originally, he hadn’t held much hope for the people from the two Sects either.
All his greatest hope was on Jin Yanxi.
The Disciples of the Jinling Family were worried for Jin Yanxi.
