Chapter 546: The Evil Supervillain

As soon as Ye Lin finished speaking, everyone present fell into a collective silence.

They were shocked.

However, what shocked them was not Ye Lin's experiences, but his ability to spout nonsense so casually.

The Ji family had long since secretly investigated Ye Lin; not a single one of the things he had just described had ever actually happened.

After a long while, the corners of Ji Wubing's mouth twitched slightly, and he spoke up with some helplessness to go along with it.

"Little Friend Ye Lin, your life has indeed been quite tortuous."

Ye Lin smiled faintly.

"It is but a little wind and frost."

Ji Wubing: "..."

Ji Wubing really wanted to respond.

But he truly did not know how to respond to this, so he could only choose to remain silent.

Yet the next second, he saw that Ye Lin's face was already covered in tears.

"Family Head Ji, do you know? Even with so many setbacks and hardships, they still couldn't knock me down; I have stubbornly persisted until today."

"But now, I can't even get the sword I'm asking for; what is the point of me living?"

"Family Head Ji, I don't want to live anymore!"

As soon as his voice fell, Ye Lin's body began to swell, and an aura capable of destroying the heavens and extinguishing the earth began to brew within him.

The expressions of everyone in the Ji family changed wildly in an instant!

The Ye Lin before them was a max-level Super Forbidden Spellcaster; if this thing were to self-destruct here, not a single living person would be found in the entire Ji family.

The members of the Ji family were so frightened that they hurriedly began to persuade Ye Lin.

"Beast... Little Friend Ye Lin, who remains calm in the face of adversity! Don't be impulsive!"

"Un... Unparalleled Little Friend Ye Lin, living is still very meaningful! Don't commit suicide!"

"Family Head, why don't you just give it to him!"

Everyone's faces were deathly pale; they did not doubt for a second that Ye Lin truly intended to self-destruct.

Everything this guy had done since arriving in the capital indicated that he was nothing but a lawless, pure-blooded beast.

"No, I cannot bear this grievance; I must die at the gates of your Ji family today!"

Ye Lin had already swollen into a sphere, and the energy fluctuations contained within his body were enough to make even a Blazing Sun Realm expert turn pale with fright.

Seeing that Ye Lin was about to completely self-destruct, Ji Wubing finally could not help but speak up.

"Little Friend Ye Lin! This matter can be discussed!"

*Swish.

Ye Lin instantly returned to normal, and the terrifying power from just a moment ago vanished into thin air.

"Sigh, actually, living isn't bad; one can go to the pier and get some fries."

The corners of Ji Wubing's mouth twitched slightly, then he took a deep breath and began to explain.

"Little Friend Ye Lin, you also know that the Origin Ancient Artifact is our human race's foundation for resisting the Demon race; the Eternal Divine Sword, naturally, should fall into the hands of a sword master truly suited for it!"

"Ever since the Eternal Divine Sword was inserted into the stone, no one has been able to pull it out; only my son, Ji Tianxuan, has managed to do so."

"The person behind you is also a sword cultivator by profession; without a doubt, you are seeking the Eternal Divine Sword on his behalf."

"How about this: let the person behind you spar with Tianxuan. If he wins, my Ji family will present the Eternal Divine Sword with both hands!"

"If he loses, then my Ji family will gift him these six divine-artifact-level swords instead; what do you think?"

Ye Lin narrowed his eyes slightly.

After all, the Ji family had never offended him, and when they were in the Mountain-Sea Secret Realm, Ji Tianxuan had helped him quite a bit; he did not want to take things too far.

Thus, Ye Lin nodded.

"Fine, let it be done as Family Head Ji says."

Seeing Ye Lin agree, Ji Wubing and the many elders of the Ji family finally let out a long sigh of relief.

If Ye Lin had ignored everything and truly wanted to seize it by force, there really wasn't anyone in the Ji family today who could stop him.

"Call Tianxuan over!" Ji Wubing ordered.

He still had confidence in Ji Tianxuan's strength; if nothing unexpected happened, Ji Tianxuan would undoubtedly become the next head of the Ji family.

"Ye Lin, long time no see."

Looking at the Ye Lin before him, Ji Tianxuan was filled with emotion; the other party's growth speed exceeded his imagination.

Back in the Mountain-Sea Secret Realm, he could still go toe-to-toe with him.

Now, a few years later, he was only level 80, while Ye Lin was already an existence that even the head of the Ji family feared.

"Long time no see." Ye Lin nodded.

Ji Tianxuan took a deep breath and said nothing more.

The Eternal Divine Sword was the Ji family's ancestral treasure; it could absolutely not be handed over to an outsider.

He could not lose this battle!

Ji Tianxuan took a set of armor that emitted a brilliant golden luster from his storage space and put it on; the Eternal Divine Sword was also held in his hand.

Although the tip of the sword was still encased in stone, Ji Tianxuan could now skillfully use this sword.

"Come."

Ji Tianxuan opened his eyes, his sharp gaze piercing toward Ji Lingyu like two divine swords.

Ji Lingyu's expression changed wildly; if Ye Lin hadn't taken him to the Demon Realm and caused his strength to soar, Ji Tianxuan's gaze alone would have been enough to severely injure him.

"Boss, I don't even have a sword; how am I supposed to fight him?" Ji Lingyu was somewhat horrified.

As a fellow sword cultivator, he naturally sensed how terrifying the Ji Tianxuan opposite him was.

Ye Lin walked over to Ji Lingyu and patted him on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, the mountain man has his own clever plan."

"Here, take this."

Ye Lin pulled out a flag and handed it to Ji Lingyu.

"What is this?"

Ji Lingyu looked at the flag, which was constantly emitting black smoke, with some confusion, his heart filled with horror.

Just by holding this flag, the terrifying resentment emanating from within it almost made him completely lose his sanity.

However, the bonus this flag gave him was also extremely terrifying; Ji Lingyu instantly felt his spirit attribute increase by a hundredfold.

"This is the righteous nine-star divine artifact of our Great Xia, the Human Emperor Flag!" Ye Lin said with a straight face.

"Human Emperor Flag?" Ji Lingyu scratched his head in confusion. "Boss, why does this Human Emperor Flag keep emitting black smoke? I think I can even hear the screams and wails of many people—men, women, old, and young."

"Don't mind that; it's just that the Primordial Purple Qi is too dense, so it looks a bit black!"

Ye Lin waved his hand dismissively.

"You should know that my teacher is the infallible Mr. Zhuge, right? Before he died, he cast a divination and calculated that you are actually the Child of Destiny! And that person opposite is an evil Demon King supervillain! You must defeat him to save this world! To save the human race from fire and water!"

After hearing Ye Lin's words, Ji Lingyu scratched his head.

He looked at the resentment-filled Human Emperor Flag in his hand, then looked at the golden-light-emitting Ji Tianxuan opposite him, and couldn't help but ask the question in his heart.

"Boss, are you sure the guy opposite, who is holding a golden sword and wearing golden chainmail, is an evil supervillain?"

"Certain, when have I ever lied to you?" Ye Lin said with a serious face.

"Then can I ask, what is the name of the sword in his hand?" Ji Lingyu whispered.

"Xuanyuan Sword."

Ji Lingyu: "..."
