Ancient Fiend Dragon Emperor

Chapter 297: Chapter 296: The Death of Su Yunming

Yuanshan County, Cold Cloud Sect.

Inside the council hall, Ling Qinghai sat with a deeply furrowed brow, and below him, the three Dragon God Realm cultivators, Hee Chong, Lin Tao, and Yunye, also had grim expressions as they sat.

“Report—”

A disciple came in from outside, his voice sharp.

“How is it going?” Ling Qinghai immediately asked.

“To report to the Sect Master, the powerful Sword Demon from the Sword Immortal Tomb keeps insulting the people of God-Slaying Pavilion. Even though Deputy Pavilion Master Su Yunming has already knelt down and kowtowed to him, he still won’t relent and actually…”

...

“What? Speak up!” Ling Qinghai commanded.

“He… he even demanded Xiao Yuhui and Xiao Yuran to take off their clothes,” the disciple hesitated to say.

“What?!”

Ling Qinghai slammed his hand on the chair, which directly shattered into pieces, and he suddenly stood up.

“What a Sword Immortal Tomb! Indeed, in the eyes of these Super Sects, we are nothing but ants, but how could they insult us to such a degree!” Ling Qinghai raged.

“Deputy Pavilion Master Su Yunming has already started to resist, and all members of God-Slaying Pavilion have launched an attack…” The disciple began to speak again, but his words carried a hint of a sigh and regret.

It was indeed a sigh, and indeed regret.

Because everyone knew the fate of a Ninth-Rate Sect daring to make a move against a Super Sect.

And what God-Slaying Pavilion was facing… was not just one Super Sect!

“They’ve actually taken action…”

Ling Qinghai slumped onto the ground, the smile on his lips somewhat desolate, his whole body no longer carrying the aura of confidence and vigor.

“Su Han is my close friend; my breakthrough was his achievement. It can be said that much of what Cold Cloud Sect has today owes greatly to the help of God-Slaying Pavilion.”

“And yet I…”

“Am utterly unable to help God-Slaying Pavilion in their time of need!”

“How infuriating! How utterly infuriating!!!”

“Sect Master.”

Hee Chong stood up to persuade, “Sect Master, everything we have today was also made possible by Master Su. He has been kind to us, and even if it costs us our lives, we must repay him, but the current situation of God-Slaying Pavilion is against a Super Sect, and even if we truly stake our lives, it would be of no help.”

“Indeed.”

Yunye and Lin Tao also stood up, speaking softly, “Though these words may seem heartless, they are the reality. With our cultivation bases, even if we went to help, we would ultimately not escape a fatal outcome.”

“Do I not know that!”

Ling Qinghai shouted angrily.

It was precisely because he knew this that he felt so powerless.

He wanted to help, he was anxious in his heart, but he also knew that any attempt to help was just a march towards death.

It all came down to the problem of cultivation base.

…

As Ling Qinghai was filled with anger and powerlessness, over at God-Slaying Pavilion, Su Yunming was being attacked by several people.

The Sword Demon’s longsword raged like a torrential flood. Countless sword lights swept out, tearing through all space and striking at Su Yunming.

And other members of God-Slaying Pavilion, just as the Cold Cloud Sect disciple had said, had indeed all taken action.

Only…

This effort was truly a fleeting one.

“Puchi!”

A head was forcibly sliced off and fell to the ground, blood splattering everywhere.

This was one of God-Slaying Pavilion’s ordinary disciples, his eyes wide open in death, still not closing in peace.

In those unshut eyes was a mix of indescribable rage and unwillingness.

This scene wasn’t limited to him; it was happening to many God-Slaying Pavilion disciples.

Almost at the instant when the God-Slaying Pavilion disciples rose up to resist, thousands had died.

Their adversaries were at least Second-Rate Sects, each of their opponents possessing the power of the Dragon God Realm.

There was no need for the Grand Elder of the Jade Void Palace, who was in the Dragon Emperor Realm, to take action. Merely the others were enough to annihilate the God-Slaying Pavilion.

“Pfft!”

A spray of fresh blood splattered as Su Yunming’s arm was hit by a streak of Sword Light, severing it cleanly.

But this was just the beginning. As his arm was cut off, countless more Sword Lights swept in, piercing through Su Yunming’s defenses all over his body.

In that instant, Su Yunming’s furious state of mind suddenly calmed down.

He stopped resisting because he knew, resistance was futile now.

He turned his head to look at everyone from the God-Slaying Pavilion, at the bodies slaughtered all over the ground, at Xiao Yuhui and Xiao Yuran who were desperately defending, as well as Liuyun, Hong Chen, and the others.

At that moment, Su Yunming smiled.

“Deputy Pavilion Master, run!!!”

Someone roared desperately.

“It’s my fault…”

Su Yunming spoke up, his voice calm, “I am the Deputy Pavilion Master of the God-Slaying Pavilion. I tried hard to protect you all, but you… you were still killed.”

“Deputy Pavilion Master!!!”

Liuyun, Hong Chen, and the others called out, their eyes bloodshot.

“Well then, we’ll accompany each other on the Yellow Spring Road. If there truly is an afterlife, I do not wish to be the Deputy Pavilion Master again, do not wish… to watch you die again.”

Su Yunming’s smile grew wider, and his figure was completely enveloped by the Sword Light as the final word dropped.

“No!!!”

In an instant, a heaven-shaking roar burst from the mouths of the people of the God-Slaying Pavilion, their hearts on the verge of bursting.

The myriad of Sword Lights vanished, and following suit was Su Yunming.

“I will kill you!!!”

Xiao Yuran’s pretty face showed a deep hatred, but her opponent was extremely strong, easily suppressing her. Had it not been for the order of the Sword Demon, it’s likely that Xiao Yuran would have already been dead.

“Young Mistress, it’s a blessing for you that I took an interest in you, don’t be ungrateful.”

The Sword Demon’s figure flickered, appearing before Xiao Yuhui and Xiao Yuran, and with a sudden grasp, he initiated a Spatial Lockdown around Xiao Yuran.

“Get lost!”

Seeing that others were still attacking Xiao Yuran, the Sword Demon coldly shouted, sending the attacker flying with a single blow.

At the same time, he clenched his hand, and the space shattered explosively.

Xiao Yuran’s face paled as she saw the space explode in an instant, with that explosion, her garments ripped to shreds.

The Sword Demon’s nature was lecherous and evil; he did not wish to kill Xiao Yuran and Xiao Yuhui because he had yet to savor their bodies.

“You deserve to die!!!”

Xiao Yuran gritted her teeth, and as her clothes were torn apart, instantly used her Spiritual Energy to form a mist, creating a barrier around her body.

“Do you think this will protect your body?”

A sneer formed on the Sword Demon’s lips as he reached out to disperse the mist with another grab.

“Sister!”

Xiao Yuhui immediately dashed over, trying to defend.

“Sister…”

Xiao Yuran’s eyes showed despair, “Actually, I know, I’ve always known, you also like Little Su Han, don’t you?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuhui trembled, looking incredulously at Xiao Yuran.

“It’s alright, you are my sister, I won’t be angry, because Little Su Han truly is too outstanding.”

“But…”

Xiao Yuran looked at Xiao Yuhui, her voice soft, “Just that, Yuran will leave first. If sister survives, please help Yuran take good care of Little Su Han, alright?”
