Chapter 1588: Yongye's Forces Annihilated

This old guy is really getting more and more shameless—right at the canteen entrance, in front of all these disciples, you dare say that?

Who originally said they wanted to kill Xu Jie to rid the sect of a menace?

Since the time in Dongzhou, all the way to Zhongzhou, hasn't Xu Jie always been the Law Enforcement Hall's number one 'archenemy'?

And now, in the blink of an eye, you've become a model disciple of the holy land?

Perhaps sensing the many contemptuous gazes around, even Shi Song could hardly keep his composure.

His face flushed red, he gave an embarrassed cough, then, as if explaining, muttered to himself.

"This is what they call 'a flaw does not hide the jade'; Xu Jie may have a few minor faults, but they don't detract from his excellence."

Huh???

You call this 'a flaw does not hide the jade'? And 'no harm to elegance'?

Then why did you originally shout that you wanted to kill him? If it weren't for Hong Zun stepping in several times, Xu Jie would probably have been done away with by your Law Enforcement Hall already.

Whether he could even make it alive to Zhongzhou was debatable, and now you're saying it's 'a flaw does not hide the jade'?

Shi Song's explanation not only failed to convince the crowd, but the contemptuous looks directed at him only increased.

Fortunately, it was finally mealtime, and everyone promptly turned their attention to their dry rations.

"I'm definitely having this special dish today."

"I, Lin, am the same."

Qin Shan Hai and the others also couldn't be bothered with Shi Song, turning their heads straight to the Yongye assassins, their eyes full of fighting spirit.

They haven't had this special dish in a while, and they're practically drooling—it's right at their lips; what reason could they have to give up?

As the words fell, Lin Potian and Qin Shan Hai struck first; seeing this, the others naturally didn't want to be outdone and quickly followed.

In an instant, the 'great battle' outside the canteen was about to break out.

However, everyone strictly observed the Dao Yi Shengdi's rule: those at the Sacred Realm fight Sacred Realm, Great Saint Realm fight Great Saint Realm, and emperors fight emperors.

There was no occurrence of crossing cultivation realms.

Facing the attack of Lin Potian, Qin Shan Hai and the others, the Yongye assassins who had only been fed chicken soup by the Vermilion Bird Hall masters that afternoon were naturally unafraid.

They are Yongye assassins—when have they ever feared anyone?

They've walked out of mountains of corpses and seas of blood—could it be that now they can't even keep a meal?

"Good, come on."

"You still want to eat the emperor's food? Hah, dream on."

In an instant, the two sides clashed, both full of fighting spirit, but the moment they engaged, the Yongye side sensed something was off.

As for movement techniques, it's still okay to say—although the Dao Yi Shengdi side had the advantage in the battle, as assassins, the Yongye's movement skills were not weak either.

Not to mention that everyone being at the Transformation Realm would be absurd, but perfection does exist.

So, being slightly weaker in movement techniques, they could still hold on.

But the most fatal problem lay in control-type techniques.

Most of the Yongye assassins had hardly trained in control-type techniques; even those who had done so only dabbled in their spare time, far from reaching the hall of elegance.

Damn, they're a bunch of assassins—what do they need control-type techniques for?

But the rule of Dao Yi Shengdi is that, when fighting for food in the canteen, you may not injure lives, nor may you use other types of techniques.

In short, you can only simply subdue the opponent.

The problem is, these assassins have only learned killing techniques—when have they ever studied control-type techniques?

This isn't forcing Zhang Fei to embroider, is it?

Do you really have to specially restrain someone before killing them? That's like taking off your pants to fart—pointless.

So, almost at first contact, several Yongye assassins were directly subdued by the Dao Yi Shengdi side.

"Damn it."

They didn't even have a chance to react; the Yongye assassins' faces fell, full of resentment.

This isn't a loss of strength—if there were no restrictions, they truly wouldn't fear Qin Shan Hai, Lin Potian and the others.

But now we can only use movement techniques and control-type techniques—what are we to do?

"I'll fight you to the end."

Gritting their teeth, a Yongye assassin struggled to break free, but the next second another control-type technique struck.

"Just stay put honestly."

"You.............."

The movement techniques of Dao Yi Shengdi are on par with the Transformation Realm for everyone, but their control-type techniques are no less formidable.

When they fed the chicken soup in the afternoon, the Vermilion Bird Hall masters didn't anticipate this; they just focused on feeding.

Morale was boosted, but as for control-type techniques, if you don't know them, you don't know them—no amount of chicken soup changes that.

So, many Yongye assassins could only lie there honestly.

Even if they were unwilling in their hearts, there was nothing they could do.

That Transformation Realm-level control-type technique, unleashed by an equal-strength expert, could be resolved in a short time.

Moreover, the Dao Yi Shengdi people really struck darkly—even though they had already subdued their opponents,

but, just to be safe, the Dao Yi Shengdi crowd unhesitatingly unleashed several more control-type techniques the next second.

Instantly, they bound the Yongye assassins like zongzi, holding them fast in place.

Let alone breaking free—just taking a breath felt difficult.

They really gave no chance at all.

I had thought it would be a fierce battle, but its end came faster than imagined.

Moreover, from start to finish, there was never any fierce battle—it was a one-sided crush from beginning to end.

Easily dealing with these Yongye people, everyone from Dao Yi Shengdi had beaming smiles, clapped their hands, and eagerly walked toward the canteen.

「Let's go, let's go, to the private kitchen, private kitchen. 」

「Haha, I, the old man, have been craving this bite for a long time. 」

「You said today's meal is already served to our mouths, right? 」

「Haha, you can't even perform control-type techniques, yet you still dare to challenge? 」

Watching the backs of the Dao Yi Shengdi crowd as they left, the Yongye assassins were filled with grief and indignation.

Hateful, hateful that I didn't properly study control-type techniques; who would have thought that one day I would end up like this?

The Yongye people outside can be said to have been completely wiped out.

In the canteen's rear courtyard, the Eternal Night Old Ancestor and the Vermilion Bird Hall Master, along with a few others, were still discussing this matter with great interest.

Because they were in Dao Yi Shengdi, everyone thus refrained from using divine sense.

After all, in someone else's Sect, to casually use divine sense is extremely impolite.

Under the cover of divine sense, some people's secrets that they don't want you to know—do you look or not?

Therefore, under normal circumstances, when visiting another Sect as a guest, one would not casually unleash divine sense.

Especially for friendly Sects, this is almost the standard practice for all cultivators in Zhu Tian Wan Jie.

So, the Eternal Night Old Ancestor and his group also didn't know the situation outside.

At this time they were still guessing, fearing the battle was still fierce; although Dao Yi Shengdi was unorthodox, their Yongye people weren't weak either—who isn't selected after thousands of trials? Moreover, those who came this time were all elites from the Yongye headquarters.

Unfortunately, the Eternal Night Old Ancestor and his group still didn't know that the fierce battle had not occurred, because it had already ended long ago.
