Divine Emperor Demon Emperor

Chapter 408: Chapter 408: You Will Pay a Price to Kill Me

Heavily injured by a single strike from Song Tianyang, Lin Yun struggled to his feet. His eyes, filled with an icy killing intent, were fixed on his opponent. Lin Yun coughed up a few mouthfuls of blood and said, ”A Demon Fiend from the Wuji Sect is truly something to behold.”

”Heh. On the Celestial Spirit Continent, the strong command respect, and the weak have no say.” Song Tianyang paid Lin Yun’s taunt no mind. In his eyes, Lin Yun was far too weak to be worthy of his serious attention.

By now, if Lin Yun still couldn’t tell that Song Tianyang intended to kill him, then he’d truly lived his life in vain.

Meanwhile, seeing Song Tianyang attack so directly, Mo Qingshui could no longer hold back. She immediately turned to Wan Tai and demanded coldly, ”Master Wan, what is the meaning of this?”

”Oh, it means nothing. The youngsters are just sparring. We old folks shouldn’t meddle in their affairs,” Wan Tai replied with a smile.

Seeing that Wan Tai was dead set on having Lin Yun killed, Mo Qingshui snorted coldly and prepared to rush to Lin Yun’s side. She could not let him die at the hands of Song Tianyang.

But before she could act, Wan Tai restrained her completely, rendering her entire body immobile.

”Qingshui, it’s best you don’t interfere in the affairs of the younger generation.” Wan Tai was a Spirit Realm expert; he only needed to release his Elemental Power to suppress Mo Qingshui with ease.

Completely immobile, Mo Qingshui’s gaze shifted from the heavily injured Lin Yun back to Wan Tai. At that moment, she cast aside all concern for Wan Tai’s status and began to curse him furiously.

”Wan Tai, you despicable, narrow-minded villain! To stoop so low as to attack a junior in the Primordial Ocean Realm!”

Mo Qingshui’s words were a great loss of face for Wan Tai. Upon hearing her, not only was the Mo Family Head startled, but the two Mo Family ancestors also barked coldly, ”Qingshui, do you have any idea what you’re saying? Apologize to the Sect Leader at once!”

”Pah! You want me to apologize to him? Impossible! A man so narrow-minded, with methods so vile, is completely unworthy of being the Sect Leader of the Wuji Sect! I...” Mo Qingshui continued to curse.

But before she could finish her sentence, the Mo Family Head slapped her across the face.

Having been slapped by her own father, a bright red handprint immediately appeared on Mo Qingshui’s fair cheek.

Looking at her father, Mo Qingshui stubbornly bit her lip. The Mo Family Head had been driven mad with anxiety just now; if Wan Tai truly became enraged, life for the Mo Family would become very difficult. He had slapped his daughter only to silence her.

Mo Qingshui was practically jumping with anxiety, but there was nothing she could do. Wan Tai wanted Lin Yun dead, and neither the Semi-Evil Daoist Master nor Abbot Lian Fo had shown any sign of intervening. As for the two Mo Family ancestors, it was even less likely that they would get involved.

”Go on. I’ll give you one chance to make a move,” Song Tianyang said with a light chuckle, looking at Lin Yun dismissively.

Facing one of the Five Great Demon Fiends for the first time, Lin Yun felt a chilling killing intent rise within him. ’Wan Tai and Song Tianyang... especially Wan Tai,’ he thought. ’I don’t know why he wants to kill me, but for a Sect Leader to personally arrange the murder of a junior... The man is truly far too narrow-minded.’

”Today, I’ll see for myself the strength of one of the Eastern Domain’s Five Great Demon Fiends.” With no path of retreat, Lin Yun had no choice but to fight for his life. ’If Song Tianyang wants to kill me, he’ll have to pay a price.’

As his voice fell, Lin Yun’s aura, which had been weak from his injuries, suddenly surged. At the same time, Little Ape, who had remained hidden until now, appeared and grew to be taller than a man.

The sudden appearance of Little Ape caused Song Tianyang’s eyes to narrow for a moment before he chuckled. ”So there was a Demon Beast hiding. But it’s only a Tier Three Demon Beast. What good will that do?”

Tearing his gaze away from Little Ape, Song Tianyang looked at Lin Yun again and discovered that his aura had become even more powerful than it was at its peak. Judging by his aura alone, Lin Yun was now indistinguishable from an expert at the Ninth Layer of Primordial Ocean Realm.

’Hmm... A Secret Technique?’ he muttered to himself. Faced with Lin Yun’s explosive increase in power, Song Tianyang remained unfazed. He had absolute confidence in his own strength.

”Come on, let’s see who dies today!” Lin Yun roared, and both he and Little Ape charged at Song Tianyang simultaneously.

Watching Lin Yun’s sudden burst of power, the hitherto silent Semi-Evil Daoist Master smiled. ”This boy has a tenacious will, and his Combat Power is formidable. Master Wan, if your disciple were at the same Cultivation level, what do you think his chances of victory would be?”

Unsure of the Semi-Evil Daoist Master’s meaning—was he being taunted?—Wan Tai could only force a dry laugh. He could show disrespect to everyone else present, but he could not afford to offend the Semi-Evil Daoist Master and Abbot Lian Fo.

Wan Tai didn’t answer. The Semi-Evil Daoist Master simply turned his gaze back to the fighting Lin Yun, a hint of satisfaction in his eyes. He even gave a slight nod, seeming to quite appreciate the boy.

”ROAR—” Perhaps sensing that Lin Yun was severely wounded, Little Ape charged forward ferociously, positioning itself in front of Lin Yun to keep him from clashing head-on with Song Tianyang again.

”Hmph. Some unknown War Ape. Scram.” Seeing Little Ape throw a punch, Song Tianyang snorted coldly and launched a punch of his own.

Infinite Killing Fist—the signature Martial Skill of the Wuji Sect. Much like the Purple Mist Seal of the Flawless Palace, nearly every Disciple in the Wuji Sect learns the Infinite Killing Fist, but those who can grasp its True Intent are few and far between.

As Song Tianyang threw his punch, a fist brimming with berserk killing intent instantly shot toward Little Ape. The moment they made contact, Little Ape’s right fist was shattered, the bones and skin completely torn asunder.

As the Infinite Killing Fist bore down on its chest, Little Ape knew it was no match for Song Tianyang. But it had no regrets. From the very start, its only thought had been to shield Lin Yun from the attack.

”Heh, it seems the outcome has been decided,” one of the Mo Family ancestors remarked with a laugh as he observed the fight.

However, no sooner had the words left his mouth than, in the nick of time, Lin Yun yanked Little Ape aside. He unleashed the Purple Mist Seal, striking out with his palm. A massive hand of Elemental Power, dozens of feet wide, collided violently with the Infinite Killing Fist.

’The Purple Mist Seal. Hmph. Brat, today I will see you dead,’ Wan Tai snorted to himself as he watched Lin Yun execute the technique.

Lin Yun had practiced the Purple Mist Seal for too short a time and had yet to grasp its True Intent. Combined with the gap in Cultivation between him and Song Tianyang, the Purple Mist Seal only lasted for a few moments before it was utterly shattered by the Infinite Killing Fist.

The Infinite Killing Fist, its momentum unchecked, continued its path toward Lin Yun. To everyone’s surprise, Lin Yun did not try to dodge. As they all watched, he clenched both fists and roared, ”Black Steel Tyrant Fist.”

Watching Lin Yun’s move, the Mo Family ancestor scoffed, ”He wants to block Song Tianyang’s Infinite Killing Fist with his physical body? Utterly foolish.”

It wasn’t just the Mo Family ancestor; everyone else thought Lin Yun was being foolish. Watching his blood-soaked back, Mo Qingshui bit her lip so hard it nearly bled. Even though she didn’t believe he could block Song Tianyang’s attack, the defiant pride he showed shook her to her very core.
