Chapter 1749: Who Do You Think You Are?
Chapter 1749: Who Do You Think You Are?
A man and woman approached from the dark and gloomy land in the distance.
The man's black hair fluttered as he walked. He exuded an ethereal aura with each movement while his black eyes appeared as deep as an abyss.
The woman's beautiful eyes twinkled with liveliness. She was as pretty as a fairy and was blessed with jade-like skin and a unique charm.
It was Lin Xun and A'hu.
Meng Yi stiffened at the sight of the duo, and his expression drastically changed. Unable to remain composed, he cried out, "You...how are you...still alive?"
His voice was filled with disbelief as if he had seen a ghost.
The other cultivators were also dumbstruck. Weren't the two of them supposed to have died? How had they suddenly appeared, clearly alive and kicking?
Had Meng Yi lied?
Wen Qingxue's eyebrows abruptly rose as her clear eyes rippled. Her biggest worry had ultimately come true.
However, she couldn't imagine how Lin Xun had escaped from God Binding Heavenly Peak. After all, it was something that had never happened before."Meng Yi, you made me suffer so much!"
Tang Su seemed to be furious.
However, she suddenly became jovial again when she turned back to Lin Xun. "It's great that you didn't die. It would have been a huge pity if you did since I still haven't fought you."
"How dare that dog Meng Yi deceive us..."
At a hidden corner, Sha Liuqing and Ku Du were triggered yet again. They had been in a constant state of frustration over the past few days due to Meng Yi.
As a result, they felt increasingly resentful toward him.
"We'll settle things with Meng Yi after Lin Xun is killed."
Sha Liuqing gnashed his teeth.
Ku Du expressionlessly said, "I completely agree!"
"Is that Lin Xun?"
Meanwhile, Xu Lingkun also noticed Lin Xun, causing his eyes that were brighter than the sun to gleam for a moment.
He had been harboring some regret about not being able to personally avenge Kun Jiulin, but this regret no longer existed now!
"Interesting."
Hua Xingli laughed as a hint of interest appeared on his morbidly pale face.
He believed that Meng Yi wouldn't lie, which made him curious about how Lin Xun had managed to escape God Binding Heavenly Peak.
The atmosphere changed as a sensation of restlessness swept across the field.
It was all because Lin Xun, who they originally believed to be dead, had suddenly appeared in front of them alive!
A'hu smiled cheekily as she intentionally spoke loudly enough for everyone to hear, "Brother Meng, stop daydreaming and show us how you commit suicide."
Meng Yi's expression fluctuated indeterminately. In the end, he took a deep breath and said, "It's indeed surprising that you were able to survive God Binding Heavenly Peak..."
Before he could finish, Lin Xun cut in, "Stop talking nonsense and kill yourself!"
The crowd revealed strange expressions. Several of them were clearly enjoying this development.
Meng Yi was a pure-blood descendant of the Qiongqi Battle Clan who possessed unfathomable strength. Yet, someone like him was now being humiliated?
His expression darkened as he icily said, "Brother Lin, don't you feel stupid to take such a joke seriously?"
Lin Xun strode forward with a wide smile. "A joke? I treated you as my friend and saved you so many times, yet you plotted to harm me and now you're acting like this is all a joke? Are you not disgusted by yourself?"
Everyone couldn't help but raise their eyebrows. Only then did they realize that Meng Yi was the reason why Lin Xun had encountered a disaster at God Binding Heavenly Peak!
Meng Yi's expression turned ashen. Just as he was about to say something, he was stopped by Wen Qingxue.
She looked at Lin Xun and said, "Let's put aside such grudges for the moment. I believe that you're aware of the current situation and know that it will be unfavorable for both of us if we fight. Why don't we resolve our grievances after the Fengshan Platform battle is over?"
Lin Xun displayed a mocking expression, "Who do you think you are?"
An uproar erupted.
Wen Qingxue, the third-ranked beauty on the Starry Sky Talented Beauty Rankings, was adored by many and drew everyone's attention wherever she went.
Who would dare to be disrespectful toward her?
The Panwu Dao Court disciples were the first to lose their cool and angrily shouted at Lin Xun, "How dare you be so rude?!"
"Are you asking for death, Lin Xun?"
Even Wen Qingxue was stunned, not expecting Lin Xun to be so crude. Soon after, a chilling light flashed across her eyes.
The atmosphere turned strained.
The eyes of several experts from the Primordial Dao Court, Taowu Battle Clan, Blood Qilin Battle Clan, and Heaven and Earth Dao Court twinkled as their hearts stirred slightly.
Lin Xun had committed a massacre at Imperial Dragon Mountain, causing them to suffer heavy casualties and nearly annihilate their forces.
As enemies, they naturally couldn't fully control their anger upon meeting.
If a battle were to erupt between the Panwu Dao Court disciples and Lin Xun, they definitely wouldn't mind lending a hand.
Meng Yi's eyes flickered as he frostily said, "Lin Xun, you're too arrogant. You were unbelievably lucky to have survived God Binding Heavenly Peak, yet you still foolishly came to Mount Kunlun. Aren't you afraid at all?"
He naturally knew that quite a number of factions present were hostile toward Lin Xun.
Lin Xun ignored everything. He continued forward with an indifferent expression and said, "It seems that you're not going to kill yourself. Fine then, I'll help you."
Rumble!
Without any hesitation, he swung his palm downward like a sword.
A massive torrent of sword qi surged forth. The vast and brilliant sword qi pulsed with horrifying power and seemed to contain even the sun, moon, and stars.
"You're courting death!"
"How dare you?!"
"What an arrogant scoundrel!"
Angry voices rang out in rapid succession.
No one had expected Lin Xun to be so forceful and unreasonable.
He showed no regard for anything, not even caring that many enemies were closely watching.
Space collapsed as the dazzling sword qi descended like a guillotine.
Meng Yi coldly snorted. His usually scholarly and handsome face twisted sinisterly as a malevolent, bloody aura burst from him.
With a thrust of his hand, a bloody fist seal condensed. Glaring dao runes emerged upon its surface, causing the surroundings to darken.
Qiongqi Tyrant Seal!
In the primeval era, a Qiongqi ancestor was said to have destroyed a hundred thousand miles of land with a single claw thrust. That horrifying destructive power was rumored to have made even the sky and stars shiver in fear.
Although Meng Yi was nowhere near that level, he was well-versed in the technique and could unleash enough power to overturn mountains and rivers.
Many experts' eyes narrowed.
Meng Yi was often viewed as an outlier in the Qiongqi Battle Clan because his scholarly, gentle, and humble persona was the complete opposite of his clan mates' savage and bloodthirsty natures.
Moreover, he was usually low-key and often took a passive stance, which made others unable to grasp his thoughts or strength.
Now, however, numerous experts finally realized that Meng Yi's kind and humble appearance hid an extremely savage and violent power!
For example, that attack of his alone had already deeply alarmed several people.
Rumble!
Sword and seal collided in the air, causing Law Power to ripple amidst an explosion of blinding light.
The bloodthirsty seal exploded, crushed into countless light particles.
With a solid thud, Meng Yi was sent flying into the air!
The blow from the mighty sword qi caused him to cough blood as his complexion paled. He brutally smashed into the ground, sending up a giant cloud of dust.
The area was deathly silent as several people inwardly gasped.
Meng Yi was defeated in a single sword move?
How horrifying was Lin Xun's combat strength?
"It seems that you're only good at conspiring. Your actual strength is pathetic."
Lin Xun's eyes gleamed as if electricity was arcing through them. He rushed forward to follow up the attack, moving with incredible speed and power.
Swish!
A blast of vast and heavy sword qi blazed through the air.
Wen Qingxue had also made her move. Her white clothes seemed to dance around her, making her appear as elegant as a fairy as her graceful figure flowed with dazzling sword intent.
Lin Xun didn't bother to look. A wave of Taixuan sword qi shot out from him and transformed into a heavy sword mountain.
Rumble!
The sky and land trembled as the sun and moon lost their light.
Wen Qingxue's sword qi was crushed inch by inch as its surroundings ruptured, producing a terrifying storm of sword qi.
At the same time, she staggered in the air.
Another wave of agitation swept across the area as many experts' expressions changed slightly. Wasn't this demon god way too powerful?
"Great!"
Only Tang Su's eyes shone brightly as she exclaimed in amazement. Lin Xun's display had roused her desire to fight, filling her with eagerness.
"You seem to be quite pathetic as well."
Lin Xun's expression was ice-cold.
Wen Qingxue might be a fairy in the eyes of others, but she was nothing but a loathsome witch in Lin Xun's eyes. After all, it was not the first time she had attacked him out of nowhere since entering the Kunlun Dominion.
Wen Qingxue frowned deeply. With a clang, she drew a golden sword that radiated illusory dao light. Its edge gleamed brightly as if it could illuminate all of heaven and earth.
Swish!
She accelerated through the air to attack again, resembling a fierce and unrivaled sword immortal.
"Kill!"
"Kill that bastard!"
Meanwhile, the other Panwu Dao Court disciples joined the fray and attacked Lin Xun together.
For a time, the area seemed to fall into turmoil, filled with terrifying dao light and scenes of destruction.
One must know that everyone who had managed to reach Mount Kunlun was an extraordinary expert. In fact, nearly all of them were supreme Big Saints.
Additionally, there was no shortage of Starry Sky Big Saint rankers among them!
Battles between such individuals were naturally exceptionally dreadful and earth-shaking.
"Lin Xun, you'll most definitely die this time!"
Meng Yi and the other Qiongqi Battle Clan experts also plunged into the battle.
From afar, one would see Lin Xun surrounded on all sides.
Despite this, A'hu didn't move from the spot. She knew that Lin Xun had recently achieved a cultivation breakthrough and was different from the time of the Imperial Dragon Mountain massacre.
What he needed now wasn't help but a place to vent his anger!
"Mere mantises trying to stop a cart."
In the air, Lin Xun appeared calm and confident. With a deep breath, he seemed to transform into a chaotic furnace as power rumbled from within him.
Rumble!
He stepped forward like a true dragon emerging from the abyss as a pulse of dreadful power destroyed all of the approaching attacks.
He unleashed his cultivation, releasing an oppressive pressure like a demon god descending upon the land, causing the surrounding area to darken in his presence.
From a distance, he resembled a mighty sun whose rays could never be obscured!
"Die!"
Soon after, Lin Xun spat out a single word. As if in compliance, the Broken Blade shot forth and killed a nearby Panwu Dao Court disciple.
Plop!
His head spiraled into the air as his blood gushed out like a waterfall.
Under countless horrified gazes, the headless corpse crashed to the ground and splattered into pieces!
