Chapter 969: Chapter 968: Ling Shangyun_1
The young man nodded slightly.
Ever since he obtained a huge opportunity in another relic, his craving for other treasures had diminished a lot.
One could be greedy, but too much was as bad as not enough. He understood this better than anyone, which was why he led experts toward the light gate, never expecting to witness the scene before him.
"Young Master, should we make a move..."
Another elder looked at the young man.
Since the Fire Emperor had participated in the siege against Yan Zhenning, their Yan Family naturally stood opposed to the Yan family. If they didn’t remove the roots when cutting the grass, endless troubles would follow.
The young man’s eyes dazzled, emitting an otherworldly brilliance, and he said, "A dying bitch does not require our intervention."
Before the light gate.
Ling Shangyun licked his lips, "Miss Yan, if you swear to be my slave, at my mercy, perhaps I might spare you a path to life. A bad life is better than a good death."
The Evil Blade Sect had the word ’evil’ in its name, and its martial arts were also based on it; it advocated its disciples to do as they pleased, resorting to unscrupulous methods to achieve their goals. Ling Shangyun was one of the best among them.
From the first glance at Yan Yuchai, he had made up his mind to sleep with her. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be able to eat or sleep well, which would eventually affect the advancement of his power.
"In your dreams."
Yan Yuchai said indifferently.
"In terms of status, I am the future Sect Master of the Evil Blade Sect. In terms of talent, I am confident that I will rank among the top ten in the Martial World. Even if we talk about looks, there are not many in the entire Martial World who surpass me. Miss Yan, I am more than worthy of you."
Ling Shangyun’s smile did not waver and he swiftly moved forward, gently reaching for Yan Yuchai’s slender waist. Throughout the process, Yan Yuchai did not resist at all.
"The ’Heaven Transforming Earth Striking Mind Methods’ of the Evil Blade Sect, rumor has it can control a person’s thoughts, easily making a chaste woman fall in love, or a lovesick man go crazy. It’s indeed a good application."
The Yan Family expert sneered but did not intervene.
The Yan Family’s Kirin, Yan Jicheng, also watched with cold eyes, a lack of compassion in his gaze.
Just as he was about to clasp her slender waist, Yan Yuchai moved. Her entire body’s energy concentrated in her palm, much like the eve of a mountain torrent’s descent, unleashing a power capable of tearing everything apart, she aimed at Ling Shangyun’s chest.
Ling Shangyun’s smirk grew even thicker, as if he had anticipated this, and he met her palm with his own.
Bang!
Yan Yuchai was forced to retreat thousands of steps, while Ling Shangyun only retreated a few hundred steps. He extended his hand, took a sniff, and said, intoxicated, "The palm of a beauty is so refreshing. I can’t imagine how delightful your plump little mouth must be. My desire to taste it for myself is growing stronger."
Although Yan Yuchai was normally cold, his shameless words made her face flush with embarrassment, and she bit her teeth and lunged forward, unleashing the ’Cloud Dream Triple Seal.’
As the threefold palm force of the ’Cloud Dream’ had just surged out, Ling Shangyun had already drawn his blade.
What kind of blade was this? Dark, desolate, easily breaking through the threefold palm force. The blade’s aura dissipated like a ghastly grin painted with ink, mercilessly mocking Yan Yuchai’s overestimation of herself.
"Half a month ago, I already reached the pinnacle of the Earthly Realm as a Martial Emperor. You are no match for me."
Ling Shangyun had entered the same secret place as Helian Duba, and although the greatest opportunity had been divided up by Yan Jicheng, Mu Ling’er, and the Dark Night Proton, he had nonetheless quenched his thirst with the leftovers. After digesting them over the past half year, his power had substantially increased.
"I love admiring a woman’s collarbone the most, let me see. Miss Yan, how enchanting your collarbone is, ’Thunder Shock Appearance!’"
With an evil laugh, Ling Shangyun held his blade with both hands and made a light slash. The blade light was dreamy and fantastical. Yan Yuchai felt an alarm rise in her heart, and she desperately moved backward with all her might, continuously swinging her palms in an attempt to defend.
Zzzt!
Just before she could swing her palms, the front of her clothing split open, cut into two by the blade light, yet the blade energy didn’t harm her in the slightest.
"What a pity."
Ling Shangyun shook his head.
It turned out that beneath her outer garment, Yan Yuchai was also wearing an inner garment that resembled silk. This garment shimmered with a rainbow of colors, clearly a top-tier medium-grade Spirit Armor.
"Since the collarbone is not visible, then let’s admire Miss Yan’s jade-like arms and legs. Although you are already in my bag, Ling Shangyun never skimps on sharing the good stuff with everyone."
Another two slashes followed, the blade light neither faster nor slower.
In everyone’s eyes, Yan Yuchai, whose beauty was unrivaled and for whom countless heroes in Daxia pined, was like a helpless lamb fallen into misfortune, being maliciously skinned and humiliated by a wild wolf.
"I’m going to kill you!"
Yan Da’s eyes were already bloodshot from watching. He was even willing to trade injury for injury to break free from the masters of the Sky Water Palace. However, the Sky Water Palace was best at prolonged combat, especially since his opponent’s strength was on par with his, effectively stalling him.
Yan Er and Yan San fared even worse. Distracted, they each suffered blows from their opponents. Yan San had his left leg severed, blood raining down like a shower, yet he didn’t make a sound, his expression filled with outrage.
"Cloud Dream Claw!"
A lot had happened, but just as two slices of blade light aimed at her left hand and right leg approached, Yan Yuchai did not dodge or evade. Her delicate hand formed a claw-like shape and stretched out deceptively fast, yet seemingly unhurriedly.
"It’s useless, you..."
Ling Shangyun’s smug expression suddenly froze. In his field of vision, two streaks of blade light had just been shattered, and five claw trails had already reached him. Amongst the claw techniques in the world, most were predominantly malicious, but this claw struck with an elegance that bordered on otherworldliness.
Clang!
Ling Shangyun kept retreating, a claw force tearing open an inch-deep gash on his shoulder.
He stiffened, then licked his lips. His expression, already strange, became even more sinister and malicious. He laughed and said, "Strong enough, I like it. Originally, I just wanted to reveal your limbs, but now, I want to shred your clothes piece by piece, and let everyone present take a good look at the figure of the Martial World’s number one beauty."
His gaze was sinister and cold, and a wicked aura of blade energy crazily spun outward.
Because of the commotion here, some Void Origin Realm Martial Emperors had gathered around, and among them, every woman who caught Ling Shangyun’s gaze felt as if they were being watched by a snake, an unease seeping through them.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh.
Slash after slash came at an even faster pace, forming a crisscrossing net. Some hit Yan Yuchai’s Spirit Armor, sparks flying; some were blocked; others made direct contact with her body, rending one bloody gash after another across her smooth, delicate arms, the blood splattering wildly.
Many of the Void Origin Realm Martial Emperors found the sight unbearable and wanted to intervene. But when they thought of the gap between themselves and Ling Shangyun, not to mention his identity and what it represents for the future, their desire to rescue the beauty faded.
No one was willing to offend a potential Heaven Realm Martial Emperor. And there was no need to mention that in the distance, an Earthly Realm Martial Emperor from the Evil Blade Sect was prowling the perimeter.
Today would be the day the Martial World’s number one beauty fell!
Subjected to an endless onslaught of blade techniques, even someone as apathetic as Yan Yuchai finally felt despair and sorrow.
The Cloud Dream Claw was a transformation of the Thunder Shock Appearance Claw, a unique technique created by Shi Xuanzhong. She cursed her insufficient strength; otherwise, she would have been able to tear Ling Shangyun apart just a moment ago.
Her pride did not allow her to be humiliated like this. As she saw her clothes, barely covering the roots of her arms and legs, becoming tattered, a flicker of resolution passed through Yan Yuchai’s eyes.
...
"There’s a disturbance over there."
Shi Xiaole guessed that Yan Yuchai would leave the Heaven King Tomb at the first opportunity. Upon learning of the light gate, he hastened his way, not forgetting to survey his surroundings with the Heaven and Earth Changing Great Method.
Finally, Shi Xiaole sensed Yan Yuchai’s presence, but besides her, many auras appeared around her, some of which even Shi Xiaole found disconcerting.
He stopped in his tracks.
