Chapter 454: Chapter 454: I Can Crush You With One Hand

The young woman being stared at by Song Tianyang and the other two men was named Xi Zijin. She was the only female among the Eastern Domain’s Five Great Demon Fiends, and her cultivation had also reached Celestial Spirit Realm Minor Achievement.

Each of the Four Great Forces possessed their own Demon Fiend, and the four of them stepped forward almost in unison. Only the Flawless Palace had no Demon Fiend emerge.

It is worth mentioning that Tang Wushuang chose not to steal the spotlight at this moment. He stood impassively among the Celestial Eagle Valley disciples, so much so that not even Lin Yun noticed him. Tang Wushuang, however, had spotted Lin Yun long ago, his eyes cold and filled with killing intent.

The four arrived before the Four Great Forces. Seeing the strongest of the Eastern Domain’s younger generation, many people sighed in admiration. ”The future achievements of these four will certainly be extraordinary. To have reached the Celestial Spirit Realm at such a young age... even old timers like us have to bow our heads.”

”Yeah, look at Celestial Eagle Valley’s Demon Fiend, Lin Jianhong. At such a young age, it’s rumored his Battle Intent has already reached the Great Achievement Realm.”

”What’s so great about that? The Wuji Sect’s Demon Fiend, Song Tianyang, has trained his Infinite Killing Fist to the Transformation Realm. A single punch is enough to shatter stone and crack the earth.”

”If you ask me, Taiqing Academy’s Demon Fiend, Wei Yunhang, is the most unfathomable.”

”And also, Spiritual Light Pavilion’s Xi Zijin...”

The crowd discussed in low voices, but the Flawless Palace was conspicuously left out. Hearing the chatter, the expressions of the Flawless Palace members darkened considerably. At times like these, the Flawless Palace always lost face completely. There was nothing to be done. ’Who can we blame but ourselves for not having a Demon Fiend?’

”Everyone, stop your discussion. The Flawless Palace is bursting with talent, you know. They may not have produced a Demon Fiend yet, but who’s to say one won’t appear any time now?” a Supreme Elder from the Wuji Sect chimed in, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

Hearing this, a Supreme Elder from Celestial Eagle Valley readily agreed. ”That’s right! The Flawless Palace is indeed teeming with talent! Haha.”

This merciless mockery from the two factions made the faces of the four Flawless Palace Supreme Elders turn grim. All four of them instinctively looked toward Lin Yun. If one had to name the strongest person in the Flawless Palace right now, it was undoubtedly him. The only gap between Lin Yun and the Five Great Demon Fiends was his cultivation realm.

”Haha, Celestial Eagle Valley is right! How about this, Supreme Elders of the Flawless Palace? Once we enter the relics, I’ll order my disciples not to attack yours. What do you say?” the Supreme Elder from the Wuji Sect boomed with laughter.

”We at Celestial Eagle Valley have the same thought. They don’t have a Demon Fiend. If we were to still make a move on their disciples, I’m afraid not a single one of them would make it out alive,” the elder from Celestial Eagle Valley added with a chuckle.

Hearing the loud laughter from the Wuji Sect and Celestial Eagle Valley, not only the four Supreme Elders of the Flawless Palace, but all its disciples wore grim expressions. This was blatant, undisguised contempt, yet Flawless Palace had no way to retort.

Lin Yun, however, was unfazed by the mockery. ’Sometimes, trying to win with words is just a sign of weakness. We’ll find out whether or not Flawless Palace has a Demon Fiend once we’re inside the Saint’s Relics.’

While the two factions mocked Flawless Palace, Taiqing Academy and Spiritual Light Pavilion remained silent.

At this point, the four Demon Fiends also turned to look toward Flawless Palace with smiles. Wei Yunhang, the Demon Fiend from Taiqing Academy, grinned at Song Tianyang and said, ”I heard that back in Jincheng, Brother Song had a little skirmish with the disciple of the Flawless Palace Master?”

As Wei Yunhang brought this up, Song Tianyang’s expression immediately soured. Seeing this reaction, the smile on Wei Yunhang’s face only widened as he continued nonchalantly.

”Even while injured, I hear this person took several of Brother Song’s punches head-on. I can’t help but wonder... is this person from Flawless Palace just that strong, or has Brother Song’s power taken a step back?”

Hearing this, Song Tianyang immediately bellowed, ”Wei Yunhang, what is the meaning of this?”

Song Tianyang had always considered his battle with Lin Yun in Jincheng a humiliation. Now that Wei Yunhang had brought it up, how could he not be furious?

The four Demon Fiends were of comparable strength and status, so Song Tianyang’s angry outburst had no effect. Just then, Lin Jianhong also looked toward Flawless Palace and said with a smile,

”Brother Song, I’ve also heard about the battle in Jincheng. I wonder, who was it you fought? Could you introduce us? We’d all like to see just what kind of person can fight Brother Song to a standstill, especially while injured.”

Hearing Lin Jianhong’s words, Song Tianyang’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pot. His gaze shot directly to Lin Yun, his eyes filled with an unquenchable killing intent.

’Lin Yun,’ Song Tianyang swore viciously in his heart, ’if I don’t kill you in the Saint’s Relics this time, then I’m not a man!’

Sensing the killing intent radiating from Song Tianyang, the other three Demon Fiends also turned their gazes to Lin Yun. When they perceived that Lin Yun’s cultivation was only at the Seventh Layer of the Primordial Ocean Realm, all three felt a flicker of shock.

’To take Song Tianyang’s Infinite Killing Fist head-on while only at the Seventh Layer of the Primordial Ocean Realm... With that kind of combat power, there’s no doubt that if his cultivation also broke through to Celestial Spirit Realm Minor Achievement, Flawless Palace would have another Demon Fiend on its hands.’

”Haha, a young talent of this caliber is someone I, Wei Yunhang, must get to know.” Laughing heartily and completely disregarding Song Tianyang’s feelings, Wei Yunhang strode toward Lin Yun.

At the same time, it wasn’t just Wei Yunhang. Xi Zijin and Lin Jianhong also followed, heading toward Lin Yun.

Seeing this, Song Tianyang stood frozen in place, his face grim. ’Those three are clearly doing this just to mock me. ”Get to know him?” What a load of bullshit.’

”Haha, I’ve long heard that a supreme genius from Flawless Palace emerged from the battle in Jincheng. My name is Wei Yunhang, and I was wondering...” Wei Yunhang laughed as he approached Lin Yun and greeted him.

Lin Yun, of course, knew exactly what these three were up to. He cupped his fist and replied to them, ”My name is Lin Yun. It is truly an honor to be able to witness the Eastern Domain’s Five Great Demon Fiends in person today.”

”Haha, Brother Lin, you’re too modest. I imagine it won’t be long before the Eastern Domain has a golden era of Six Great Demon Fiends,” Wei Yunhang replied with a laugh.

”Xi Zijin.” Unlike Wei Yunhang, while Xi Zijin was somewhat curious about Lin Yun, she showed little enthusiasm. She simply stated her name after Lin Yun introduced himself.

After the first two had spoken, Lin Jianhong walked up to Lin Yun and asked coolly, ”I hear you’ve also comprehended Battle Intent, and even reached the Small Success Realm?”

Hearing this, Lin Yun nodded without denying it. The fact that he had comprehended Battle Intent was no longer a secret—anyone with the inclination to look into it could easily find out.

With three Demon Fiends gathered around Lin Yun, chatting, all the assembled powers of the Eastern Domain, major and minor, began to speculate about his identity. To attract the attention of three Demon Fiends at once, this person was clearly no ordinary individual. Could it be that Flawless Palace was about to produce a Demon Fiend of its own?

”Lin Yun, don’t get so smug. Once we’re inside the Saint’s Relics, I can crush you with one hand.” The sight of Lin Yun caused the rage in Song Tianyang’s heart to erupt like a volcano.

And just like that, in front of everyone, Song Tianyang bellowed at Lin Yun, his voice filled with killing intent and arrogance.
