209: Kill people, people kill

Chapter 209 Killing, Being Killed...

"Since Yue Buqun wants to kill us, then we are not pushovers. I don't believe he can really kill us all."

Someone shouted while holding a blade.

A chaotic battle immediately broke out.

"You all, step behind me."

Ning Yuan gave a cold snort, then spoke, telling his Disciples to step back while he faced the crowd alone.

With a wave of his hand, he used his boundless True Qi to condense thousands of Sword Qi.

As Ning Yuan pointed his long sword, the Sword Qi shot out in succession.

"Careful!"

Facing the incoming Sword Qi, the martial artists rushing forward turned pale and frantically brandished their weapons.

Fang Zheng and the others tried their best to stop the conflict from escalating.

But with the two sides in a chaotic battle, they were forced to take action.

Ning Yuan watched all this with cold eyes, feeling not the slightest bit of worry about the situation.

Because he had prepared for this day long ago.

And with his strength, he had no fear of facing this day.

Sword Qi crisscrossed the air.

Although those who came up the mountain were renowned experts in the Jianghu, before Ning Yuan, they were still nothing more than clay chickens and pottery dogs.

There was an insurmountable chasm between those who had achieved dao entry and those who had not.

What's more, these people couldn't even see the Dao; they were merely second or third-rate talents.

With Ning Yuan's current strength, killing them was no different from crushing an insect.

If they were all first-rate experts or above, perhaps they could have posed some hindrance to Ning Yuan.

A hindrance, not a threat.

But that was all.

Moreover, those who could reach the first-rate level were few and far between, and those who were super-first-rate were even fewer.

Jade Maiden Peak was stained with blood.

Bright red blood dyed Jade Maiden Peak.

After just a moment of fighting, the attackers fell in droves.

After half of them had fallen, the rest finally calmed down.

Looking at the corpses littering the ground, everyone recovered from their frenzy, horror appearing on their faces.

Then they looked at Ning Yuan with terror.

They stammered, "You, you, you actually killed so many people..."

"You are making an enemy of the whole world!"

"Yue Buqun, you are too vicious!"

Many people accused Ning Yuan.

Now, they had no way out and could only say such things.

"I am vicious?"

Ning Yuan snorted coldly, "It was you all who invaded my Huashan. Now you turn around and accuse me, Yue, of being vicious. Do you really think the world is blind?"

"You coveted my Cultivation Technique and Secret Manuals, wanting to destroy the entire Huashan Sect, and forced me, Yue, to hand over the Secret Manual. It is only reasonable and right for me to kill you. Let's see who has anything to say about that."

"For the rest of you, if you continue to be obsessed and unrepentant, then you shall all lie as corpses here!"

Ning Yuan flicked his long sword and said, holding his head high.

His tone was cold and ruthless.

Although the words seemed calm and indifferent, they chilled the hearts of everyone present.

Even the people from Shaolin and Wudang were no exception.

They couldn't even get within three feet of him before falling dead at his feet. If they continued to charge up, they would likely just become another corpse among the many at his feet.

At this moment, even those who had spoken rudely before became cowards.

Facing Ning Yuan, who seemed possessed by a god or demon, a god of slaughter, no one was not terrified.

The loss of so many lives finally suppressed their greed and restored their reason.

"This Yue Buqun is too terrifying; we are simply no match for him."

"With such strength, I fear there is no one in the world today who is his match. He must have obtained a divine Cultivation Technique on Xia Ke Island to have such an improvement."

"So what? Even if we know he obtained the divine Cultivation Technique from Xia Ke Island, can we snatch it from him?"

Someone looked at the corpses at their feet and said with a sobbing tone, "If this continues, I'm afraid we will also become nameless corpses on the ground."

"This Yue Buqun cannot be provoked. He is even more fierce and crazy than Zuo Lengchan. Zuo Lengchan sometimes had scruples when acting, but this Yue Buqun actually dared to slaughter the crowd in front of all the heroes of the world. It's too terrifying, even more terrifying than the Demon Sect!"

Someone knelt on the ground, trembling as they shouted.

Looking at the person on the platform with an indifferent expression, many people couldn't help but feel their legs go weak and they knelt down.

Some people in the back had already started to retreat and leave.

Soon after, others were moved and wanted to leave.

"Wait!"

Just then, Ning Yuan suddenly spoke.

Everyone present froze in place.

Many people showed terror.

Someone turned their head tremblingly and asked nervously, "I, I, I don't know what Alliance Leader Yue wants us to do?"

"You brought so much trash here, are you leaving just by leaving the trash?"

Ning Yuan snorted coldly, "My Huashan Sect has few people and cannot clean up so much trash. Since you came together, you should take them down the mountain yourselves."

Ning Yuan's gaze swept over the corpses on the ground.

Everyone was immediately terrified.

Many people nodded and did as they were told.

"Don't worry, Alliance Leader, we will definitely clean it up and will never stain the holiness of Huashan."

Someone said, trying to curry favor.

People in the Jianghu were mostly profit-seeking, bullying the weak and fearing the strong.

Now, terrified by Ning Yuan's strength, their change in attitude was natural.

Soon, each person dragged a corpse down the mountain in a hurry.

Fang Zheng looked at everything before him with a face full of compassion, "Why go through all this trouble, why go through all this trouble..."

Fang Zheng's face was full of sorrow. Originally, none of this needed to happen, and so many people didn't need to die.

But unfortunately, it was too late to stop it all.

Even he had been swept up in it.

"Great Master Fang Zheng, I will not see you off."

Ning Yuan spoke again, his tone indifferent, no longer having the respect he once had.

Fang Zheng wanted to say something but stopped, still wanting to ask about Miaodi, but finally, looking at the corpses all over the ground, he could only sigh softly, "amitabha. Today's events should not have happened. Perhaps we were all wrong and too impulsive. I will not disturb Alliance Leader Yue today."

Fang Zheng knew he couldn't ask anything now, so he wisely did not continue to pursue it.

More than an hour later.

On Jade Maiden Peak, only blood remained on the ground.

"Master's Divine Might!"

Lu Dayou and others rushed up excitedly and shouted.

Ning Zhongze also breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Ning Yuan, unable to help but show an expression of disbelief.

Before, although her Senior Brother's strength was strong, one could still see the depth of it. Now, it was completely boundless, like a bottomless abyss.

...

At the foot of the mountain.

As the corpses were carried down one by one.

People who had been waiting for gossip at the foot of the mountain immediately started asking.

Some kept their heads down and didn't want to say much, but some told the truth.

"What? These people were all killed by Yue Buqun alone?"

"He actually dared to make a move? He really dared to kill people without hesitation in front of so many people?"

"Isn't he afraid of the entire Martial Forest rising up to attack him?"

"One person killed so many people? How is this possible? Even Dongfang Bubai could not do this so easily."

Some people expressed disbelief.

But soon, as more detailed news came out, many people looked grave, shocked, and horrified.

"This, this... Does this Yue Buqun really have such strength?"

"Doesn't this mean that even Dongfang Bubai is not his match now?"

"How did his strength progress so rapidly? Could it be that Xia Ke Island really has something that can allow a person's strength to have such a Breakthrough?"

Various questions followed one after another.

But looking at the corpses piled up at the foot of the mountain, no one dared to have designs on the other party again.

Even if there really was a supreme Cultivation Technique, it was clearly not something they could covet now.

At least while the other party was alive, no one dared to have crooked thoughts again.

"Unless, after a hundred years, when Yue Buqun is dead, perhaps we can go to Huashan to search for the Cultivation Technique."

Someone whispered to themselves.

This battle today would definitely shake the entire Jianghu.

"Father!"

"Master!"

At this time, some people identified the corpses of their relatives and burst into tears.

Many people looked a bit dejected.

Especially those who came down from the mountain.

If they hadn't been further back, perhaps their own bodies would be among these corpses, and perhaps their own relatives would be looking for their bodies and crying for them now.

Therefore, many people felt a sense of gloom.

"Yue Buqun, you killed my closest relative, I will definitely be irreconcilable with you!"

Someone raised their long sword and roared with a ferocious face.

"Me too. In this life, I am at odds with Huashan, dead or alive."

Many people expressed their stance.

They were all relatives of these deceased.

Now that their relatives had died on Huashan, regardless of the reason or who was right or wrong, the hatred would clearly be concentrated on Ning Yuan.

Although no one thought they could get revenge, everyone was happy to see it happen.

And the events of today also spread rapidly throughout the Jianghu.

A few days later.

Black Cliff.

Dongfang Bubai squinted his eyes, listening to the report from outside the door.

After a long while, Dongfang Bubai suddenly opened his eyes, "Are these things true?"

Dongfang Bubai's face also became grave.

Last time, Yue Buqun was already not inferior to him. Now, the other party's strength had increased many times over, which naturally made Dongfang Bubai feel unprecedented pressure.

And—an urge!

Such an opponent, such strength, he was also very curious and wanted to see what kind of power this was.

"It seems I need to go to Huashan again to see if these rumors are true or false."

"If the rumors are true, then his strength is definitely no longer that of a Mortal, having reached an unprecedented new Realm."

"If there really is such a Realm, then I must not miss it. If one hears the Dao in the morning, one can die in the evening."

"Even if I die, if I can personally witness such a magical Realm, it is worth dying."

"If he has not reached such a Realm, then with my speed, he cannot kill me."

Dongfang Bubai stroked his hair, lifted his head, and said confidently.

In the world today, no one could kill him.

Even if someone could defeat him, relying on the unparalleled speed brought by the Sunflower Manual, as long as he wanted to leave, no one could keep him.

Even if that person also cultivated the Sunflower Manual, it wouldn't work.

Because in the attainment of the Sunflower Manual, Dongfang Bubai had reached a Realm that no one had reached before and no one would reach after. Even the person who created this martial art might not have as high a Realm as he did now.

Therefore, the only person who could kill him would have to transcend the limits of martial arts.

Entering a brand new Domain, an unknown Domain, possessing unknown mysterious power.

Only such power could kill him.

"Leader, that Yue Buqun is too terrifying in the rumors. If you go to Huashan, wouldn't it be extremely dangerous?"

Tong Baixiong, the hall Master of the Fenglei Hall, couldn't help but say with worry.

"Hmph, if he really has such strength, then I cannot escape even on Black Cliff. If he does not have such strength, then no matter where I am, he cannot kill me."

"And since there are such rumors, if I don't go to see it, wouldn't it be a pity?"

Dongfang Bubai flicked his sleeves, "You don't need to worry about this matter. Let Yingying come to see me."

"Yes."

Seeing that Dongfang Bubai had made up his mind, Tong Baixiong could only retreat.

Shortly after, Ren Yingying came into the hall.

Previously, following Ning Yuan's departure, Ren Yingying had also found an opportunity to go down the mountain and return to the Sacred Sect.

"Greetings, Leader."

Seeing Dongfang Bubai, Ren Yingying immediately bowed. Even though she already knew that Dongfang Bubai had imprisoned her father, she dared not show any disrespect when facing Dongfang Bubai.

Especially since her father, Ren Woxing, might have already died at the hands of Yue Buqun.

And in the whole world, the only person who might be able to avenge her was Dongfang Bubai.

During this period, Ren Yingying had confirmed this point through various clues and the timing of her father's appearance.

Her father might have died long ago when he was at Plum Manor.

Later, Dongfang Bubai had interrogated the three remaining friends of Plum Manor again and received a definitive answer.

This also made Ren Yingying completely give up.

Although Dongfang Bubai had betrayed her father and imprisoned him for more than a decade, he was still alive, and there was a chance to meet again.

But Yue Buqun had killed her father, so the hatred would naturally shift.

Now Yue Buqun was her number one enemy, and Dongfang Bubai was second.

As long as Yue Buqun was not dead, she had no need to go and trouble Dongfang Bubai.

Of course, she also did not have the strength to seek revenge.

Whether it was Yue Buqun or Dongfang Bubai, she was no match for either.

"You have heard about the events at Huashan, haven't you?"

Dongfang Bubai said indifferently.

"I have heard."

Ren Yingying clenched her fists, hatred appearing on her face. "He must have a secret."

"Everyone has secrets. Perhaps he really obtained something extraordinary on Xia Ke Island."

Dongfang Bubai said indifferently.

Ren Yingying immediately knelt on both knees, her eyes red. "I beg the Leader to avenge me!"

"If he really has the strength in the rumors, then I would not be his match, and might even die at his hands. You ask me to avenge you, but who can avenge me?"

Dongfang Bubai laughed softly, as if sighing.

Hearing this, Ren Yingying's expression froze.

However, Dongfang Bubai was not waiting for Ren Yingying's answer, and continued, "But I will certainly go to find Yue Buqun. Whether it is for revenge or to explore his true strength, I will go."

As Dongfang Bubai spoke, his gaze fell on Ren Yingying.

Ren Yingying immediately didn't dare to breathe, and cold sweat gradually seeped out from her temples.

"I know you already know everything, and know that you resent me for betraying Ren Woxing back then. The Jianghu is just like this: killing, being killed, betrayal, and judgment are everywhere, happening all the time."

"The Jianghu is ruled by the strong. I won, so I am the strong one. Now that Yue Buqun has surpassed all the heroes, he can suppress the entire Jianghu."

"This time, when I go to Huashan, you come with me."

"No matter what the result is, there will be an end to it."

Dongfang Bubai suddenly said.

Ren Yingying was stunned for a moment, then after reacting, she nodded.

"Thank you, Leader, for your kindness!"
