Chapter 725

~7 min read 1,318 words

Ye Lin's left arm drew a beautiful parabola in mid-air and then fell to the ground.

The decisiveness of his action surprised even Fan Yecheng.

Fan Yecheng suddenly shivered.

For some reason, he felt as if he had provoked some terrifying great karma in the dark.

Just now, was someone shouting "don't" and "stop"?

"One left arm, is it enough, Elder? If not, I still have a right arm; I'll just cut it off and give it to you."

The smile on Ye Lin's face was full of loneliness, and there was deep disappointment in his eyes.

"Hmph, then cut it off; are you putting on a tragic drama for me here?"

Fan Yecheng sneered, his eyes cold.

He didn't notice at all that nine figures like gods and demons had appeared behind him.

Ye Lin also saw those nine figures, so he stepped forward quickly and used his only remaining arm to hand the sword to Fan Yecheng.

"I only have one arm left; it's inconvenient to cut it myself. Could I ask Elder Fan to help me?"

"Do you think I don't dare? A mere outer disciple—let alone cutting off one of your arms, even if I kill you on the spot, no one would dare say a word against me!"

Fan Yecheng raised his sword, ready to slash down.

But at this moment, a cold voice sounded behind him.

"Elder Fan, you have quite the prestige."

Fan Yecheng's brows furrowed slightly.

"Who is trying to stop me?"

And when he saw clearly who was speaking, half of Fan Yecheng's soul was scared away, because the person speaking was actually the Spirit Peak Master, Situ Qi.

"Peak... Peak Master! Why are you here?"

A fawning smile appeared on Fan Yecheng's face.

"If I didn't come, I wouldn't know that my Immortal Cloud Sect's elder has such prestige, daring to bully Immortal Cloud Sect disciples at will after becoming an elder. If one day you become a Peak Master, would you not even put the Immortal Cloud Sect Master in your eyes?"

There was no hint of anger in Situ Qi's tone, as if he were chatting about daily life, but Fan Yecheng was so scared he almost knelt down with a thud.

Those who could become elders in the Immortal Cloud Sect, besides having superb strength, were also experts in human relationships.

Fan Yecheng immediately saw that Situ Qi already wanted to kill.

"I'm wronged, Peak Master Situ! It was this Ye Lin who used dirty means and poisoned people first, that's why I made a move!" Fan Yecheng hurriedly explained.

"Oh?"

Another voice sounded.

"You only mention the impact of his actions, but don't mention the reason for his actions at all, is that right?"

Another figure appeared.

"Heart... Heart Peak Master!" Fan Yecheng's pupils shrank sharply.

What kind of situation was this?

He was just teaching an outer disciple a lesson; how did two Peak Masters come one after another?

You have to know that in the Immortal Cloud Sect, a Peak Master is a top-tier powerhouse who is above one person and below ten thousand, second only to the Sect Master in both strength and status.

Such a figure would spend decades in seclusion; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they were busy with ten thousand things a day. Why would they pay attention to his dispute with an outer disciple?

Just when Fan Yecheng was puzzled, an even more terrifying scene appeared.

He noticed that it wasn't just Heart Peak and Spirit Peak; the Peak Masters of the other seven main peaks had also appeared at this moment!

Cold sweat broke out on Fan Yecheng's forehead.

"Greetings to the nine Peak Masters!" Fan Yecheng hurriedly saluted.

"Don't, I don't dare to accept your salute, Elder Fan; I'm not worthy!"

"Elder Fan, don't be so polite. I've observed you; you are a talent worth cultivating. How about this, how about you take my position as the Angry Peak Master?"

"Elder Fan, don't be like this; we are just small Peak Masters, how could we be qualified to let you salute us?"

Several Peak Masters sneered repeatedly, looking at Fan Yecheng as if looking at a dead man.

Fan Yecheng froze in place; he felt that the blood in his body had stopped flowing at this moment.

If Fan Yecheng still couldn't see that the nine Peak Masters were here to stand up for Ye Lin, then he had lived in vain for so long.

Fan Yecheng showed an expression identical to the "Flame Fist" meme, smiling even uglier than crying, and couldn't help but glance at Ye Lin.

If you had this kind of background, why didn't you say so earlier?

These are the nine Peak Masters!

If the nine of them reached a consensus, even if the Sect Master came, it wouldn't work.

Fan Yecheng was almost crying, but clearly, none of the nine Peak Masters intended to let him go.

However, given their status, they naturally wouldn't make things difficult for Fan Yecheng, but instead, their spears were pointed at the Wu Feng Master, Jun Chuanxiong.

"Jun Chuanxiong, I remember, this Fan Yecheng is an elder of your Wu Feng, right? Do the elders of your Wu Feng usually act so tyrannically?"

"Peering through a tube at a leopard, one can see a spot. If the elder is like this, wouldn't Jun Chuanxiong be even more tyrannical? That's right, sword cultivators, it's normal to be a bit tyrannical, don't you think, Jun Chuanxiong?"

"It's a good thing this isn't an elder of my Force Peak; if he were, I'd die of shame."

Facing the sarcasm of the other eight Peak Masters, Jun Chuanxiong, who already had a violent temper, had a face flushed red like a monkey's butt, and his tall body was trembling with anger.

How did his Wu Feng produce such a thing?

Knowing he was in the wrong, Jun Chuanxiong didn't dare to talk back to the other eight Peak Masters and could only lock his sharp gaze on Fan Yecheng.

That gaze was like two sharp swords, instantly cutting through Fan Yecheng's last psychological defense.

He fell to the ground with a thud, his pupils losing focus.

Only one thought remained in Fan Yecheng's mind.

I'm finished!

Pill Peak Master Dan Yangzi ignored Fan Yecheng and walked past him.

He stepped forward quickly, picked up Ye Lin's severed arm, and checked it.

Then Dan Yangzi walked toward Ye Lin and made a move to stop the bleeding of Ye Lin's wound.

"Small problem, the arm hasn't lost vitality yet, it can be reattached, the impact is not big." Dan Yangzi breathed a sigh of relief.

The other eight Peak Masters also breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

"Ye Lin, follow me back to Pill Peak; I will reattach your arm. If it's too late, it might have an impact after reattachment," Dan Yangzi said.

But at this moment, Ye Lin shook his head and stubbornly took a few steps back.

"Old Man Dan, I know you care about me, but I can't go with you."

"If the Son of Heaven breaks the law, he should be punished the same as the common people, let alone me, a mere outer disciple?"

"Elder Fan is right; I shouldn't have poisoned fellow disciples. Even if their realm is much higher than mine and they wanted to besiege me, I shouldn't have used such low-class evil methods like poison."

"Let this severed arm be the lesson I deserve."

After speaking, Ye Lin bowed in the direction of Fan Yecheng.

"Thank you, Elder Fan, for your teaching; Ye Lin will definitely keep it in mind!"

Fan Yecheng, who was slumped on the ground, was completely dumbfounded; he widened his eyes and looked at Ye Lin in disbelief.

No, brother, you've already flashed, why are you still chasing to kill?
