Chapter 700: Chapter 698: Slay Demon Heaven!
Lin Xuan’s appearance surprised everyone. They originally thought another expert had emerged to turn the tide, which made them incredibly excited. But when they saw Lin Xuan’s cultivation level, they were all stunned.
"A Five-star Grandmaster? That cultivation level is far too weak!"
"Whose disciple is this? Coming here to die at a time like this."
"He truly doesn’t know his own limits."
"Is this a place he should be?"
The martial artists in the distance shook their heads and sighed, their faces etched with disappointment. Yu Fei even cried out, "Get out of here! You’re no match for him!"
If even he had been defeated, what chance did this newcomer have? The young man probably couldn’t even withstand a single glare from Demon Heaven.
Even Demon Heaven was taken aback. Where did this little ant come from, daring to challenge him?
Truly laughable.
However, he had no intention of sparing Lin Xuan. As a member of the Demon Sect, his methods were already brutal, and he certainly wouldn’t spare someone who was actively courting death. He planned to instantly kill Lin Xuan, devour his vital energy and blood, and then deal with Yu Fei.
With this in mind, Demon Heaven reached out to grab Lin Xuan.
Seeing this, Yu Fei’s expression changed drastically. He forced himself to his feet, ignoring his injuries, and shouted, "I’ll hold him back! You run!"
Lin Xuan simply smiled. "Why should I run? I accepted a mission to slay Demon Heaven. I’m not leaving until he’s dead."
What? Yu Fei was stunned. You accepted a mission? Who are you? Are you also a Holy Land Disciple?
Lin Xuan declared, "I am Lin Xuan, a disciple of the Heavenly Dao Sacred Institute. I accepted a mission to come and slay Demon Heaven. Rest assured, I will kill him with my own hands."
He’s actually a Saint Academy Disciple! Yu Fei was shocked. It seemed this person did have some background after all. But to slay Demon Heaven? What a joke. Even he had failed, so this newcomer stood no chance.
He shook his head. "He’s very strong! You can’t beat him. You need to leave now."
"Don’t worry, I can handle it," Lin Xuan replied with a confident smile.
Hearing this, Demon Heaven snorted coldly. "So what if you’re a Saint Academy Disciple? I’ll just devour you first."
With that, he shot his palm forward, an overwhelming wave of Demonic Qi surging toward Lin Xuan.
Not good!
Yu Fei tried to intervene but was blocked by Demon Heaven’s other hand.
It’s over. Yu Fei despaired. This kid was doomed.
The distant onlookers also shook their heads and sighed.
"Alas, the kid is about to be turned to dust."
"So reckless."
"He’s just throwing his life away."
But at that critical moment, Lin Xuan let out a cold snort. His body flickered, and he dodged the attack. He then unleashed a world-shaking dragon’s roar.
Celestial Sound Black Dragon Wave!
The sound instantly surged forward. The very air trembled violently, as if it were about to be torn apart.
Demon Heaven bore the full brunt of the attack, and his mind was instantly filled with a deafening roar. Even Yu Fei, who was standing to the side, was affected. He clutched his head in pain and staggered backward.
Just then, Lin Xuan moved again. A Divine Sword, the Spirit Dragon Nine Heavens Sword, appeared in his hand. Gripping the sword, he charged. In a flash, he was standing before Demon Heaven.
He swung the Divine Sword.
With a sickening slice, Demon Heaven’s head flew high into the air.
The entire sequence happened in an instant; Lin Xuan had essentially killed him in one blow.
So strong!
Lin Xuan was immensely pleased. He was well aware of the Spirit Dragon Nine Heavens Sword’s power—it was a sixth-grade Divine Sword, after all. But the might of the Black Dragon Wave had exceeded his expectations. It had plunged Demon Heaven directly into a stunned state, leaving him utterly defenseless. It may have only been for a few seconds, but that was more than enough time to kill him instantly.
Nearby, Yu Fei finally recovered from the stun. The first thing he did was look up, and what he saw stunned him completely. Demon Heaven was still standing, but his head was gone. Only a headless torso remained, blood gushing from the neck.
Yu Fei’s eyes bulged.
"Dead!" he stammered. "You... you killed Demon Heaven! How is that possible?"
He felt as if he were in a dream. He had used all his strength and hadn’t even managed to injure Demon Heaven, yet this young man had actually killed him. It was unbelievable.
What just happened?
He had no idea. The Black Dragon Wave had struck him as well, leaving him dizzy and disoriented, completely unaware of what had followed.
In the distance, the spectators were also coming to their senses, exclaiming in shock. Even from so far away, they had felt the impact of the Black Dragon Wave. Though they hadn’t passed out, their heads were splitting. Clutching their skulls and groaning, they hadn’t seen what had happened. Now, as they looked forward and saw Demon Heaven’s fate, they stood there, dumbfounded.
"Heavens, Demon Heaven is dead!"
"That kid actually killed Demon Heaven!"
"How is that possible?"
"Is he really just a Five-Star Grandmaster?"
"I don’t believe it! He must have hidden his cultivation level! Otherwise, how could he be so formidable?"
It was madness. A moment ago, they had all written Lin Xuan off, certain his interference was an act of suicide. They had been sure he would meet a miserable end. Especially when Demon Heaven attacked, they knew Lin Xuan was doomed, and that nothing in heaven or on earth could save him.
But they never could have imagined such a dramatic reversal. Not only was Lin Xuan unharmed, but he had actually slain Demon Heaven.
It was too incredible! It was too shocking!
While everyone stood frozen in shock, Lin Xuan calmly picked up Demon Heaven’s head, placed it in a box, and stored it in his Storage Ring. Mission accomplished. He could now return and exchange it for points. Slaying this Demon Heaven would earn him 1,500 points. At the same time, Lin Xuan also took Demon Heaven’s Storage Ring.
With a loud crash, the headless corpse fell, making the earth tremble and staining a patch of ground red with blood.
Lin Xuan turned to leave.
"How exactly did you do it?" Yu Fei asked, still bewildered.
Lin Xuan didn’t answer. He simply smiled, waved his hand, and quickly departed.
Staring at Lin Xuan’s retreating figure, Yu Fei was lost for words. No matter how he had done it, the young man had saved his life. If he hadn’t intervened, Yu Fei would surely be dead.
The martial artists in the distance bowed respectfully toward Lin Xuan.
"Thank you, sir, for stepping in and killing Demon Heaven!"
"We will never forget this great kindness!"
Lin Xuan left Qingyou City and headed back toward the Sacred Institute. Halfway there, however, a figure appeared and blocked his path. It was a middle-aged man with an ordinary face, but his aura was exceedingly powerful. He was a Five-Star Grandmaster.
"Who are you?" Lin Xuan asked coldly.
This man was Jin Yao, the Five-Star Grandmaster dispatched by the Jin Family to assassinate Lin Xuan. He had witnessed Lin Xuan’s battle from afar and was utterly shocked. He never expected the kid to possess such a terrifying Sound Martial Arts technique, nor that he wielded such a precious sword. To be able to kill Demon Heaven with a single strike, the weapon in his hand had to be a King’s Weapon, right?
This kid really has a lot of treasures. After I kill him, they’ll all be mine.
A cold smile played on Jin Yao’s lips. He said, "Kid, any last words?"
Hearing this, Lin Xuan’s expression changed. The man wanted to kill him. Could he also be from the Demon Sect?
"Who am I? You don’t need to know. A dead man doesn’t need to know that much," Jin Yao said languidly. "You have only yourself to blame for offending someone you shouldn’t have."
Lin Xuan sneered. "Just you alone? You think you can kill me? A bit naive, aren’t you?"
"You’re the naive one," Jin Yao scoffed. "I know you possess powerful Sound Martial Arts and can fight opponents eight realms above your own. I also know you have a King’s Weapon in your hand. But so what? No matter how strong you are, you’re no match for me. Killing you would be as easy as flipping my hand. So I advise you to surrender without a fight. If you do, I can grant you a quick death."
Lin Xuan burst out laughing. "A mere Five-Star Grandmaster? What can you possibly do to me? I’ll give you some advice: kneel down and surrender now, and I can also give you a quick death."
Hearing this, Jin Yao’s face turned grim. "Still so arrogant when you’re about to die. In that case, don’t blame me for being ruthless."
He took a step forward, the power in his body erupting as he prepared to swat this impertinent brat to death.
Seeing this, Lin Xuan’s face darkened.
He dares to attack? He’s courting death!
"Snake King! Take him out!"
