Chapter 143

~7 min read 1,386 words

The Yama's Hall clearly relies on corpse puppets to fight.

But Hun Lengsheng also happens to be good at close combat; counting it this way, it is two against one.

With a corpse puppet protecting him, ordinary people simply cannot cause him any harm.

Seeing the spirit sword coming, Lin Yan quickly withdrew to dodge.

Compared to Lin Ya's sword, Hun Lengsheng's sword path is clearly not just a little bit weaker.

"Sheng'er, don't mess around!"

On the Yama's Hall side, Hun Tongyou's face tightened: "Let the corpse puppet solve that kid; you just need to hide well."

Ginger is still the spiciest when it's old.

In a situation where he can win steadily, why take the risk?

Although killing Lin Yan with his own hands would be more fulfilling and could better demonstrate the strength of his Yama's Hall.

But doing too much is a mistake.

Hun Lengsheng ignored his grandfather's warning; seeing that his strike missed, he immediately killed him.

Anyway, with the corpse puppet as a shield, Lin Yan could not possibly threaten him, while he could attack continuously, forcing Lin Yan into a miserable state.

Several swords slashed out in succession, forcing Lin Yan to retreat again.

A trace of coldness rose in his eyes, and the flames under his feet became more and more numerous.

At this moment, he suddenly reached out, and the Burning Heaven Immortal Wrath condensed into a long spear in his hand; then, the corners of Lin Yan's mouth curled up, and he let out a loud roar.

"Flame Rushing to the Clouds!"

Along the way, Lin Yan awakened his alchemist talent and obtained the Burning Heaven Immortal Wrath.

But he did not have any other arts or spirit treasures.

What he is using now are all things he has comprehended himself.

"Small tricks; no matter what method you use, you cannot hurt me!" Hun Lengsheng said with a laugh.

He pinched a seal with one hand and summoned the corpse puppet over; Lin Yan stabbed out with his spear, attacking the corpse puppet again, but it had absolutely no effect.

"How can this be fought?"

Lin Chaoyang was furious; he cursed loudly at Hun Tongyou: "You people from the Yama's Hall are simply cheating; this match is not fair at all!"

Hearing this, Hun Tongyou smiled contemptuously: "If you want fairness, I think you should go back to Leiling Province; the Heavenly Pride Grand Meeting has always been ruthless."

"Which rule states that my Yama's Hall cannot use corpse puppets?"

"If your Lin family has the ability, then use it."

These words from Hun Tongyou drew mockery from the various forces; the Heavenly Pride Grand Meeting can almost be said to have no rules—no matter what means are used, as long as you can defeat your opponent, then everything is fine.

"Cheaters! Clan Leader, these people are cheaters!"

Lin Xuan said pouting, her hands on her hips, looking quite cute.

However, Lin Feng did not care; he stared at Lin Yan's methods and then immediately understood.

"Stop arguing; Lin Yan has won."

Lin Feng said indifferently, but no one believed him when he said this.

Clearly, the current situation is very unfavorable for Lin Yan; how did Lin Feng reach the conclusion that his Lin family disciple could win?

Hun Tongyou snorted; a hick is a hick after all—can't he even understand the situation?

The people from Leiling Province all showed bitter expressions, and Master Gu Dan was even more worried; after all, Lin Yan is not only a Lin family disciple but also a disciple of their Xuntian Sect.

Just at this moment, on the platform, Lin Yan had already put away the flames on his body.

He returned to calm and looked at Hun Lengsheng in front of him steadily.

"Hahaha! Are you going to surrender?"

"You should have done this long ago; with the corpse puppet here, no matter how powerful your methods are, you cannot deal with it."

"And I, however, can attack you at will."

Excitement was revealed in Hun Lengsheng's eyes; he wanted to kill Lin Yan with his own hands and bring his body back to the Yama's Hall.

In this way, not only would his position as first disciple be secured, but he would also refine Lin Yan into a corpse puppet.

This is a great honor in the Yama's Hall, but for the Lin family, it would likely be a huge humiliation.

Hun Lengsheng enjoyed this pleasure of stepping on others.

"You have lost; surrender now, and I can still spare your life!" Lin Yan's gaze was very calm, his tone firm.

Hearing this, everyone present frowned slightly.

Has Lin Yan gone mad?

Clearly, he is the one being suppressed; he cannot break Hun Lengsheng's defense at all.

"Boastful; it seems you won't shed tears until you see the coffin!"

Hun Lengsheng's pupils shrank, a hideous smile on his face, and he was seen suddenly drawing his sword and slashing out.

He wanted to repeat the same trick!

Lin Yan reached out his hand very calmly, posing to attack.

"Still coming? Do you think you can hurt me?" Hun Lengsheng said contemptuously; he had already summoned the corpse puppet to block in front of him.

But!

A flame condensed under Hun Lengsheng's feet, and the scorching temperature spread instantly.

"Not good! He left a backup plan!" Hun Tongyou shouted; seeing his old face gloomy as water, he flew out instantly, intending to interfere with the match.

However, the Imperial Family's Black Armor Army stepped forward immediately.

Hundreds of Black Armor soldiers blocked Hun Tongyou's path; if he dared to cross half a step, he would die!

The rest of the people were stunned by this scene.

In the previous exchange, Lin Yan seemed to be struggling, but he had accurately found Hun Lengsheng's weakness.

This guy was too arrogant, actually relying on the corpse puppet and thinking that all attacks were ineffective against him.

"Whoosh..."

As Lin Yan clenched his five fingers into a fist, a fire dragon shadow swept out instantly, and terrifying flames sprayed out, rising dozens of feet high.

That flame was thick and powerful, wrapping Hun Lengsheng directly inside.

His corpse puppet was used to defend against Lin Yan, but the defense was ultimately too one-sided; it was simply too late to return to defend his feet.

"Ah!"

The intense pain of burning made Hun Lengsheng let out a heart-wrenching howl; he never expected Lin Yan to have this move.

"You have no chance." Lin Yan said silently.

Burning Heaven Immortal Wrath cannot burn the corpse puppet, but can it not burn Hun Lengsheng to death?

In just three breaths of time, only a pool of ashes remained in the flames.

When the flames subsided, that corpse puppet seemed to have lost its power, standing blankly in place.

"In this match, Lin Yan of the Lin family wins!"

On the Golden Dragon Boat, the Crown Prince announced loudly; his eyes flashed with brilliance, clearly very interested in Lin Yan.

The Lin family's three heroes, each possessing unique skills—if such people were all recruited to the Imperial Family...

"No!"

Hun Tongyou was furious; he roared and was about to rush over.

That was his son; did he just die like that?

The Yama's Hall has lost two major disciples in succession this time; this is a loss the Yama's Hall has never experienced since the Heavenly Pride Grand Meeting was held!

"Lin Yan! I am going to kill you!"

Hun Tongyou roared madly; his hatred was like a continuous river—if not for the Black Armor Army blocking him, he would definitely have pounced without hesitation.

"Enough!" On the dragon boat, the Crown Prince said coldly.

"No one is allowed to disturb the normal operation of the Heavenly Pride Grand Meeting; your Yama's Hall disciples are incompetent and died without surrendering, so they cannot blame others for their deaths."

The Crown Prince rarely took sides, directly stopping Hun Tongyou's actions.

If Hun Tongyou were not sensible, then what the Yama's Hall would lose today would not just be two talented disciples.

At this moment, the whole arena was silent, with only Lin Yan picking up Hun Lengsheng's storage bag.

At this time, Lin Yan looked at that corpse puppet.

"Huh? Can I use this thing?"
