Chapter 1023

"If it weren't for the Qinglong Society backing you, back then we would have wiped you all out, including that old stray-haired Zhang Sanfeng."

Just at this moment, Watching Bi Xuan also saw the signal General Chilaowen had sent from afar.

He was by nature an utterly arrogant, contemptuous man.

This time coming to the foreign Great Ming, he had suffered setback after setback.

What's more, he had been publicly rebuked by General Zhebie several times.

Resentment had long been building up inside him.

Seeing the signal General Chilaowen sent now, he felt this was the perfect chance to vent.

Without a second thought, he cursed out Wu Dangpai along with Zhang Sanfeng in one go.

If not for the Qinglong Society being truly too overbearing, a power Watching Bi Xuan could only look up to,

he would probably have cursed out the Qinglong Society itself by now.

"Good, since the Great Yuan so looks down on my Wu Dang, then today even if Yin Liting dies fighting here, I will never yield a single step."

Yin Liting revered his Master Zhang Sanfeng the most, and loved Wu Dangpai even more.

Now humiliated by Watching Bi Xuan like this, even though he knew he was no match, he still fought to the death without hesitation.

"Fool…"

General Zhebie was adept at reading faces and moods; seeing Zhou Zhiruo soften, he knew Yin Liting was about the same.

But Watching Bi Xuan, with his eyes ever on the top, just had to flare up at this moment.

Provoking Yin Liting to fight to the death, wanting to make it a mutual kill.

If so, wouldn't they have no choice but to kill Yin Liting?

Though General Chilaowen spoke rightly, this place was exceptionally hidden, and even the Qinglong Society would have a hard time finding it.

Wouldn't it be better to make fewer enemies of the Qinglong Society?

"It's just that this battle has nothing to do with Miss Zhou and her disciple. If I die in the fight, you may take the Heaven's Sword as you wish."

After Yin Liting laid bare his heart, resolved to die to uphold the dignity of his sect and elders,

his tone shifted again, wanting to leave Zhou Zhiruo and the other a slim chance of survival.

"Today none of you will leave alive. This surnamed-Zhou girl is a ravishing beauty, ranked on the Heavenly Dao Hundred Flowers List.

She is simply the finest cauldron material for old Meng.

Old Meng, with this little lady, you'll surely be able to break through to the supreme Mythical Realm."

Watching Bi Xuan, thinking victory was in his grasp, actually began arranging the life and death of the few of them.

What Seeing Meng Chixing practiced was precisely the Dao Heart Demon Seed Great Art, originating from Cangqu.

Only unlike the original, Seeing Meng Chixing, being on the grasslands, had borrowed from the Mi Sect's Monk Huanxi Great Art.

Hoping to use Monk Huanxi Great Art to accelerate his cultivation of the demonic art.

But Monk Huanxi Great Art required an excellent cauldron to succeed.

The women on the Heavenly Dao Hundred Flowers List were indeed all excellent cauldrons.

Yet every time the Heavenly Dao Hundred Flowers List was published, aside from the women of notorious ill repute,

every other beauty, without exception, was led away to Qinglong Shanzhuang by Li Canghai of May.

Added to that, the world was so vast—who knew how many people coveted the beauties on the Heavenly Dao Hundred Flowers List.

Therefore Seeing Meng Chixing had never entertained improper thoughts about the beauties on the Heavenly Dao Hundred Flowers List.

He merely searched the grasslands for a suitable cauldron to practice his art.

As a result, his progress was far slower.

After all this time, he was still stuck at that final Linmen kick.

Hearing Watching Bi Xuan speak thus now did make Seeing Meng Chixing somewhat tempted.

But he was, after all, a cultivator of the Dao Heart Demon Seed Great Art, his mental tempering far stronger than Watching Bi Xuan's.

Reacting at once—if they truly struck Yin Liting dead,

everyone present would have to be silenced.

Otherwise, once word got out, the price would simply be too great.

Just as he was about to speak up and warn Watching Bi Xuan, he didn't expect General Zhebie to glance at Watching Bi Xuan with an ill expression.

Nor did he rebuke him; then he saw Watching Bi Xuan say to Yin Liting,

"Good! This general grants your request, Yin the Sixth Hero—a safe journey."

General Zhebie's words were clearly nothing but a lie.

Then his hand loosened, and the second Four Symbols Arrow shot forth like a meteor, carrying boundless might, sweeping toward Yin Liting.

By now Yin Liting had already, through his sword circle, drawn the first Four Symbols Arrow into his sword circle.

He saw the second Four Symbols Arrow swift as thunder, fierce as a raging wind and wild waves, unstoppable.

In the blink of an eye, it had already reached him.

Yin Liting had no time to gather strength again, and could only release his sword circle.

Using the force of Taiji, he drew the first Four Symbols Arrow out, sending it to meet the incoming second Four Symbols Arrow.

At the same time, he activated the Heaven's Mandate Sword Dao.

In the unseen depths, he finally caught the trajectory of the second Four Symbols Arrow.

Though he hadn't found a flaw, finding the trajectory was enough.

"Haaah…"

Yin Liting roared, his entire sword Dao cultivation and all his true qi channeled onto the first Four Symbols Arrow.

The two layered together, charging to meet the second Four Symbols Arrow's assault.

Boom!

Rumble…

The two arrows met, and a sound like a sudden thunder rang out.

Then, wave after wave of fierce astral wind spread out abruptly from where the two arrows had collided.

Yin Liting and the other two were the closest, and on top of that, Yin Liting had thrown everything he had into resisting this arrow.

At this moment, not a single drop of true essence remained in his body — truly a situation of oil exhausted and lamp dried up.

Therefore, when that astral wind struck his body, he only felt that every inch of his skin was being sliced as if by sharp blades.

His sinews, bones, and internal organs, even before being touched by the astral wind, had already sustained no light injuries.

"Master, fellow disciples, take care! Liting is going on ahead…"

Yin Liting silently recited this in his heart, and slowly closed his eyes.

In this battle, he had lost.

But he had only lost in terms of cultivation.

At the moment of death, the only ones weighing on his heart were Zhang Sanfeng and the other six heroes of Wu Dang.

"What a Yin Liting…"

On the other side, General Zhebie, looking through this astral wind, saw the two Four Symbols Arrows collide and both arrows snap at the same time.

The power of the Four Symbols and Yin Liting's sword Dao power were entangled and slaughtering each other at the very core.

Although the Four Symbols power on his own side was a notch higher in cultivation.

Yet on Yin Liting's side, by some unknown means, he had actually tamed the first wave of Four Symbols power.

So that, bolstered by this Four Symbols power, his sword Dao was only slightly at a disadvantage.

It was precisely this that gave rise to this violently fierce astral wind.

With cultivation at the Earthly Immortal Realm, he could actually take head-on a single move from a Heavenly Dao Gold List-level expert like himself.

Although factors such as coincidence and his own mercy were mixed in.

But this feat, if Yin Liting were still alive, would probably be enough for him to brag about across the Nine Provinces for a lifetime.

"Could it be that anyone who has dealings with the Qinglong Society turns into a freak?"

Suddenly, this thought flashed through General Zhebie's mind.

At this moment, the fierce astral wind had already swept in, and Watching Bi Xuan and Seeing Meng Chixing immediately channeled their energy to resist.

Only General Zhebie stood immovable amid the astral wind.

"But this strike from Yin Liting is, after all, a certain death with no chance of survival.
