Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Ling Yun sheathed his Devil’s Blade and grabbed a bunch of steel nails in each hand. He was prepared to use them against the ordinary experts so that they wouldn’t get in his way.

Without attempting to cover their tracks, the trio darted to Mansion Number One at such a dizzying speed that their toes were barely touching the ground.

The three of them were able to travel a kilometer in about ten breaths. In a single glance, Ling Yun could tell that the people at the entrance were ordinary caretakers. Without paying any attention to the caretakers, he dashed past them like a trail of green smoke.

Someone has really come! Sun Tianbiao widened his eyes in the bigger living room of the mansion. After exchanging glances with Master Xingchi, who was meditating beside him, Sun Tianbiao dashed outside!

“Come out to meet your death, Sun Tianbiao!”

After he had landed in the mansion’s compound, Ling Yun leaped gently and swept his gaze to the right. Catching sight of several ordinary experts guarding the entrance of the smaller mansion, he raised his hands and rained his steel nails on them!

Tens of steel nails shone jet-black in the twilight and instantly enveloped the four victims. Caught unprepared, they were hit by the nails and fell onto the ground groaning!

At this time, Sun Tianbiao charged out of the mansion. After witnessing Ling Yun’s moves, he narrowed his eyes and propelled himself towards Ling Yun!

Simultaneously, Master Xingchi and Priest Wuchen closely followed Sun Tianbiao out of the living room in flight. Without a doubt, Ling Yun knew with one glance that the leader of the pack was Sun Tianbiao!

Sun Tianbiao was certainly neither the monk nor priest out of the three Xiantian experts!

Ling Yun hollered, “You came at the right time!” Demonstrating his Dragon Fish Phantom Ability, Ling Yun flew directly towards Sun Tianbiao and stretched out his fists!

The Tiangang Demon Fist!

The silhouettes of two experts exchanged blows at lightning speed in mid-air!

As his fists hit Sun Tianbiao’s palms, the latter moaned and fell out of the sky and onto the ground!

Sun Tianbiao was dumbfounded! He had been conserving his energy and even had the advantage of striking first. Despite this, he was still on the losing end. What sort of powers did his opponent possess?

Ling Yun hadn’t misjudged his own capabilities. After he had reached the twelfth minor realm of the Stellar Condensation Technique, his body’s defensive capabilities had increased to a terrifying extent. With the additional help of the potent Tiangang Demon Fist, he would be evenly-matched with a weapon-wielding Xiantian Realm Level One expert even if he was unarmed!

As Sun Tianbiao had relied on the True Qi protection that came with his Xiantian status, it was no wonder that he encountered a defeat in a frontal assault against Ling Yun!

“Kill!” Ling Yun landed on the ground and didn’t hesitate to take to the air once again. He flew directly behind Sun Tianbiao and raised his left arm. At once, a bunch of steel nails flew out and impeded Master Xingchi and Priest Wuchen’s movements!

Dugu Mo and Cui Lao understood Ling Yun’s intentions. Ignoring Master Xingchi and Priest Wuchen, they brandished a blade and sword respectively while charging towards Sun Tianbiao!

“Who are you people?” Sun Tianbiao was shaken by the present circumstances and quickly evaded them. Up until now, his hands were numb with fright, and he didn’t dare to contend with Cui Lao and Dugu Mo’s weapons.

“The assassin—the leader of the Assassins Organization!” Ling Yun’s ego received a boost by his successful strike, and he casually cited a title that he had been pondering for a long time!

It was a move which killed two birds with one stone. It wouldn’t have been Ling Yun’s style if he didn’t pose as the most impressive figure in the Assassins Organization!

He aimed in the direction that Sun Tianbiao was escaping, and when Ling Yun was just three feet above the ground, a long black blade suddenly appeared in his hands. Ling Yun gently planted it on the ground, leveraged its momentum, and flew in front of Sun Tianbiao to block his path!

Ling Yun had discerned the force of Sun Tianbiao’s powers and raised his blade! He was “riding the wind to buffet the waves”!

Goodness, so fast! Where did the blade come from? Sun Tianbiao eyed the sharp edge of the black blade. As it came slashing towards him, the blade’s chilling Qi terrified him and quickly sent him running!

“Stop him!” Ling Yun bellowed. He landed on the ground and used his Dragon Fish Phantom Ability to transform into a shadowy trail that was in hot pursuit of Sun Tianbiao!

Those who had the upper hand didn’t spare their enemies. With a punch and a blade, Ling Yun had defeated Sun Tianbiao until the latter was unable to hold his ground and could only resort to fleeing!

“Amitabha, you have pushed it too far!”

Master Xingchi had only been temporarily impeded by Ling Yun’s secret weapons. By now, he had caught up with them and was clutching a Zen stick made of ugyen gold that weighed over a hundred pounds. Targeting Ling Yun with it, he executed the Dharma Stick Technique!

Ling Yun chortled and easily dodged the incoming stroke with his Dragon Fish Phantom Ability. With a leisurely air, he laughed. “Is that so? Take a blow from my blade!”

“Swish!”

As it struck Master Xingchi’s Zen stick, the unremarkable black blade wasn’t the least bit distorted. However, it severed the Zen stick into two!

“Clang!”

Master Xingchi sensed that the weight in his hand was lighter now. Then, he saw that the other half of the Zen stick had been tossed far away and eventually hit the ground with a resounding clang.

“This is bad, there’s something strange about this black blade!” Master Xingchi turned pale with fright and rushed to caution Sun Tianbiao and Priest Wuchen.

“You only realized it now? It’s too late!” Ling Yun laughed indifferently and transformed into a shadowy trail once more before darting towards Sun Tianbiao, who was being held off by Cui Lao currently.

Having faced off against a group of enemies together, the three of them were considered to have developed chemistry in combat. Cui Lao and Dugu Mo were already aware that Ling Yun was the most powerful out of the three of them, and they would try their best to thwart the movements of his targets in their spare time.

Landing behind Sun Tianbiao, Ling Yun unceremoniously began to swing his blade in all directions and directed a blow at Sun Tianbiao’s right arm!

Hemmed in by Cui Lao, Sun Tianbiao was startled when he heard a swipe from Ling Yun’s blade and subconsciously raised his arm to block it!

As Sun Tianbiao’s master had hailed from the Shaolin Sect, he was trained in body-strengthening exercises and specialized in fist, palm, finger, and leg martial arts techniques. Proud of his status, he rarely relied on weapons in combat. He had assumed that Ling Yun’s powers wouldn’t surpass that of Houtian Realm Level Nine and didn’t take him seriously. Who knew that he would suffer such a huge loss today?

“Don’t resist!” Master Xingchi burst out in warning. It was only then that Sun Tianbiao recalled Ling Yun’s severing of Master Xingchi’s Zen stick and hastily elevated his Xiantian True Qi to its maximum limit. Dashing in a zig-zag pattern, he clenched his right fist and confronted the Devil’s Blade head-on!

After a Herculean effort, Sun Tianbiao managed to dodge the blade. His Shaolin Arhat Boxing moves had skewed Ling Yun’s blade position, and it didn’t pierce him.

However, Sun Tianbiao would never have imagined that Ling Yun’s finishing move didn’t involve this blade!

Just as Sun Tianbiao was dodging to his side, a long, shiny sword emerged in Ling Yun’s empty left hand. It resembled an expanse of clear water in autumn — shimmering ever so slightly and seemingly alive!

Ling Yun was practically herding sheep. Sun Tianbiao was being held off by Cui Lao while the Devil’s Blade struck at a slanted angle to his right. With much difficulty, he managed to dodge the blade but was forced to hide in the shadow of Ling Yun’s sword!

“Ah!”

“Pfff!”

A cry of agony echoed in the air as blood spurted out from his wound. Ling Yun’s sword had found its way into Sun Tianbiao’s left rib cage and slit it so deeply that the bone was visible!

Ling Yun’s Dragon Vein Sword was by no means inferior to his Devil’s Blade. Both weapons were equally as capable of penetrating hard objects and slicing them as though they were soft mud. Of course, Sun Tianbiao’s Xiantian True Qi wouldn’t have been able to withstand its force!

“I’ll let you gloat over this small achievement again!” Ling Yun snorted and used his Dragon Fish Phantom Ability to outrun Sun Tianbiao. In just a short while, he was riding on Sun Tianbiao’s back!

Ling Yun lifted the longsword in his left hand and slashed Sun Tianbiao’s chest!

“Ah!” Sun Tianbiao shrieked once more. By now, it was too late for him to run. Gritting his teeth, he tried to shake Ling Yun off his back and elbowed him forcefully!

Capitalizing on the opportunity, Ling Yun slashed Sun Tianbiao a few more times. However, he was thrown back from the impact of Sun Tianbiao’s elbow. Immediately, he arrived beside Dugu Mo, who was fighting Priest Wuchen in a drawn-out battle, and used his Churning Winds and Flowing Clouds technique to counter the priest’s fly-whisk!

“Oh man, why is it that you’re deaf to my beckoning? Have you forgotten our agreement at the start?”

With that move, Ling Yun had forced Priest Wuchen into retreat. He chuckled and started to tease Dugu Mo.

Dugu Mo replied testily, “Don’t you think that I planned to go over too? But what could I do with him pestering me?”

While the duo bantered, Sun Tianbiao had already deserted the fighting force and was checking his injuries. At the same time, he was generously applying ointment on his wounds.

Sun Tianbiao blocked several acupoints in succession to stop the bleeding from his wounds. Then, he turned to look at the half-naked youth who had injured him twice!

He’s still alright? How could this be... Sun Tianbiao was stupefied when he saw that Ling Yun remained unharmed!

While he was under distress, Sun Tianbiao had fought to the end with any available means. The strength of his elbows would have caused internal injuries to even a Xiantian Realm Level One expert, so he would naturally be shocked to see that Ling Yun was perfectly fine!

Cui Lao hadn’t pursued Sun Tianbiao; he dodged Master Xingchi and immediately ganged up with Ling Yun and Dugu Mo to fight Priest Wuchen!

“Haha!” Ling Yun chortled. The Dragon Vein Sword in his left hand pierced the right rib cage of Priest Wuchen!

Priest Wuchen was aware of Ling Yun’s formidable power. He was afraid to attack Ling Yun’s sword with his fly-whisk and could only wrap it around Dugu Mo’s sword. Pulling the sword towards his right, Priest Wuchen leveraged on the momentum to leap left!

This was a brilliant tactic without question. As he pulled the sword to his right, Priest Wuchen would naturally be able to expedite his retreat. Moreover, it would cause Dugu Mo’s sword to clash with Ling Yun’s Dragon Vein Sword and be severed in the process!

Even if that was the case, he still didn’t manage to dodge Cui Lao’s powerful blade. In an instant, the icy blade had pierced Priest Wuchen’s robe and left a long, gaping wound on his left shoulder!

Fresh blood was gushing out of the wound, and Priest Wuchen groaned in pain!

“I’ll send you off!” Ling Yun wore a merciless expression, and the Dragon Vein Sword vanished in his left hand. Riding on the protection of the Stellar Condensation Technique and immense power of the moon, he dashed headlong towards Dugu Mo’s swinging longsword!

“F*ck, aren’t you afraid of death!” As he perceived Ling Yun’s overconfidence, Dugu Mo was frightened and quickly tossed his sword away!

Dugu Mo’s sword was catapulted into the air as it collided with Ling Yun, and the latter had caught up with Priest Wuchen—who was bogged down by his injuries—in no time. With his left hand, Ling Yun used the Tiangang Demon Fist against him!

With his entire might, Ling Yun smashed into Priest Wuchen’s injured left shoulder!
