Chapter 206: Chapter 135: Killing in Front of the Great

Grandmaster 2

Translator: 549690339

“You!

The aspiring Great Grandmaster paled in terror and erupted with all his might, trying to block this sword. As long as he could block it, once the Great Grandmaster arrived, the opponent wouldn’t be able to kill him.

He exhausts all his strength, willing to be heavily injured just to block this strike.

However, this strike from Xu Yan is meant to kill him!

Not giving anyone a chance to save him!

These two aspiring Great Grandmasters were no match for Yin Hong in terms of strength, falling markedly short.

Xu Yan, with his clear understanding of the Sword Intent and new comprehension of the myriad wonders of earth and sky, had significantly improved his strength since his fight with Yin Hong.

The sword strikes.

Mountains and rivers crumble, catastrophe befalls all living things, and that aspiring Great Grandmaster is obliterated.

“Great Grandmaster Wushuang, save…”

The voice faded into nothingness.

Under the Sword Intent, his body shatters into pieces, then is ground into dust.

On the rippling surface of the water, floated rows of Spirit Tickets, belonging to that aspiring Great Grandmaster.

Xu Yan waved his hand, collecting the Spirit Tickets from the water’s surface.

At this moment, all the martial artists of Wushuang Hall were utterly shocked.

A Great Grandmaster aspirant, just died like that?

And the opponent, even after Great Grandmaster Wushuang appeared, still decisively killed that man.

The commotion from this fight was massive. Qianxing Lake was shaking, and all the martial artists turned their eyes towards the young man who was picking up Spirit Tickets, smiling gently as he stacked the tickets and pocketed them with satisfaction.

Great Grandmaster Wushuang had already appeared, yet he still cared about picking up Spirit Tickets at such a moment?

After picking up all the Spirit Tickets, Xu Yan was about to return to that small island. After all, he hadn’t finished looting it yet.

A fight with such a commotion would surely attract others, and it would be a waste if someone else got there first.

“Are you planning to leave just like that?”

At this moment, the indifferent voice of Great Grandmaster Wushuang sounded.

Xu Yan looked up at her, his heart chilled, “So strong, much stronger than the Great Grandmaster my master killed. Is this the real power of Wushuang Hall?”

“Since I’ve already killed, why should I stay? I still need to reclaim what’s mine.”

Xu Yan was not cowed in the least.

It’s no disgrace to run if he can’t beat them.

Once he was strong enough, he’d come back and kill this Great Grandmaster!

All the martial artists in Wushuang Hall swallowed hard. This young man is really arrogant, completely disregarding Great Grandmaster Wushuang.

This was Great Grandmaster Wushuang. Because of her, many other powerhouses dared not act rashly.

Even if a Great Grandmaster arrived, they had to obey the rules.

“The rules of Qianxing Lake prohibit killing. Didn’t you know?”

Great Grandmaster Wushuang’s tone remained indifferent.

Her emotional state was stable, showing neither happiness nor anger.

“I didn’t know!”

Xu Yan shook his head and added, “And even if I did, they took my stuff. 1 would have acted the same.”

At this moment, all the martial artists were covered in cold sweat. This guy was really arrogant. Even if he knew, he would still act the same?

Does he even care about Great Grandmaster Wushuang?

With these words, even if Great Grandmaster Wushuang wanted to let him off the hook, she couldn’t.

“What did they take from you?”

Great Grandmaster Wushuang’s tone remained calm.

Spirit Crystals and Spiritual Medicine and such. Basically, everything that was theirs is now mine.”

Xu Yan solemnly replied.

“Regardless of the reason, you killed someone and polluted the waters of

Qianxing Lake. You have to give an explanation.”

Great Grandmaster Wushuang’s tone grew stern.

“I admit to killing someone,”

Xu Yan answered defiantly, “But I won’t take the blame for polluting Qianxing Lake. I turned their bodies into ash that the wind has already carried away. Not a drop of blood got in the water. How can you accuse me of polluting Qianxing Lake?”

Everyone:….

His logic was pretty sound. Since he’d turned the bodies to ashes and not a drop of blood fell into the water, he hadn’t polluted the lake!

Even Great Grandmaster Wushuang was momentarily silent.

“Regardless, you killed someone at Qianxing Lake. You must answer for it!”

Great Grandmaster Wushuang spoke in a deep voice.

“Are you annoying? If you’re going to fight, then let’s get on with it. You’re acting like an old hag. I still have things to loot and… recover. If someone else gets there first, will you compensate me?

“You, woman, sure know how to nag. I’m leaving!”

Xu Yan looked impatient.

I still need to get back to the courtyard to do some scavenging. If someone else beats me to it, I’ll lose big time!

Gulp!

All the martial artists present didn’t dare to breathe. They could feel an oppressive aura.

The Wushuang Great Grandmaster seemed to be angry!

How terrifying would the wrath of a Great Grandmaster be?

Especially a Grandmaster of Wushuang’s caliber who is at the pinnacle of Great Grandmasters.

However, to their astonishment, the person who had stirred the Grandmaster’s rage simply ignored the fuming Wushuang Great Grandmaster. With a flicker, he disappeared into the horizon.

Such speed was beyond imagination!

Boom!

As if the wrath of heaven had descended, it startled all the martial artists present. They almost fell to their knees.

The Wushuang Great Grandmaster was ready to explode with anger. He actually turned and walked away, completely disregarding him, a Great Grandmaster.

He was about to give chase, but in the end, he simply regrouped and returned to the Wushuang Hall.

All the martial artists present wiped the cold sweat off their brows, quickly leaving the Wushuang Hall. They also wondered why the Wushuang Great Grandmaster did not give chase.

Did he just let that young man off the hook?

“Who was that young man?”

“We’re not sure.”

ii

Do you think, could it be the Sword Daoist Xie Lingfeng from Sword Respect Cliff? He’s so young and his Sword Dao is so strong…”

Someone asked tentatively.

ii

It could be.”

The rest of the martial artists had an epiphany. It made sense why the Wushuang Great Grandmaster pardoned the young man.

“This explains it. Xie Lingfeng is the pride of Sword Respect Cliff. If the Wushuang Great Grandmaster bullied the weak, would Sword Respect Cliff simply stand by?”

ii

Good point. Plus, 1 heard that Xie Lingfeng is the only son of Xie Tianheng, the sword master of this generation from Sword Respect Cliff. Even Wushuang Great Grandmaster couldn’t handle Grandmaster Xie’s prowess.”

The martial artists burst into heated discussion.

Meanwhile, Xu Yan, the instigator of all this, returned to the original battlefield and picked up all the remaining Spirit Tickets on the surface of the water.

He turned his head, feeling a bit puzzled: “That Wushuang Great Grandmaster didn’t give chase? Is he that easygoing?”

He was a little surprised. The magnanimity of the Wushuang Great Grandmaster was truly impressive. Despite him insulting her dignity, she didn’t seem to mind?

“This Wushuang Great Grandmaster sure dodged a bullet. If she had pursued me, I would return to kill her after my breakthrough and raid the Wushuang Hall…”

As Xu Yan thought, he became somewhat regretful.

If the Wushuang Great Grandmaster did pursue him, there would have been personal grievances between them, and it would only be reasonable for him to return for revenge and raid the Wushuang Hall, wouldn’t it?

The Wushuang Hall is quite wealthy!

“What a pity!”

Xu Yan shook his head, no longer dwelling on the Wushuang Hall, and looked excitedly at the courtyard on the small island.

“There must be treasures stored inside, right?”

He excitedly arrived on the small island and began scouring the courtyard.

“My next target is the Seven-star Study Palace!”

Xu Yan had already decided, after scavenging the courtyard, he would head straight to the Seven-star Study Palace.

He would go there to spar, discuss martial arts, peruse the book halls of the Seven-star Study Palace, understand the Inner Realm Martial Arts, extract its essence for his benefit, and integrate all methods into his own Dao!

At the top courtyard of Wushuang Hall…

“I am going to kill that arrogant bastard!”

The Wushuang Great Grandmaster said angrily.

A woman in plain clothes calmed her down and sat her down, her hand gently stroking her heaving, tumultuous chest, saying, “Master, if you really kill him, our Wushuang Hall will be no more.

“Even if you just injure him, the consequences will be severe.”

The Wushuang Great Grandmaster sneered, saying, “Why would 1 be afraid of Xie Tianheng?”

“Master, it’s not that you are scared, but Young Master Xie hasn’t offended our Wushuang Hall. He only killed a few people. As he said, not a drop of blood has fallen into the lake. He didn’t muddy our Thousand Star Lake.”

The woman in the plain clothes continued to comfort her.

“I still can’t let it go. I’m going to teach him a lesson!”

The more the Wushuang Great Grandmaster thought about it, the angrier she got. What kind of attitude was that?

What does he mean nagging?

He even said she was chatty!

What sheer audacity!

The lady in plain clothes held her back, saying, “Master, where can you catch him now? Young Master Xie’s movement technique is unparalleled. His speed outdoes ordinary Great Grandmasters.

“Even if you had chased after him then, you might not have caught up to him. If you offend Young Master Xie and he holds a grudge, it won’t be good!”

The Wushuang Great Grandmaster was still fuming with anger and growled, “It’s all your fault for not letting me make a move. I could have taught him a lesson then!”

“Yes, yes, it’s all my fault.”

The lady in the plain clothes made her concession..
