Chapter 463: Chapter 463: This Is Flawless Palace’s Eldest Senior Brother

Clutching his throat, the Taiqing Academy disciple’s face was filled with disbelief. He never imagined that this group of Flawless Palace disciples would actually kill someone at a moment’s notice. ’Are these still disciples of the Flawless Palace?’

As shocked and horrified eyes watched, the Taiqing Academy disciple collapsed into a pool of blood. A Core Disciple from Taiqing Academy, who was standing on high ground and watching the scene below, saw the man fall. ”He’s dead?” he muttered.

Who would have thought that the disciples of the Flawless Palace, who had always been bullied by the Five Great Forces, would actually dare to kill a disciple of the Taiqing Academy today.

”Let’s go,” one of them barked. The three Core Disciples from the Taiqing Academy took the lead, guiding a crowd of their fellow disciples toward Lin Yun.

When they arrived before Lin Yun, as luck would have it, he recognized one of the three Core Disciples. It was the very same one who had fought him outside of Fire City.

”It’s you...” the Core Disciple exclaimed upon seeing Lin Yun.

Lin Yun simply offered a faint smile and said nothing. However, another Core Disciple from the Taiqing Academy immediately bellowed, ”Your Flawless Palace actually dared to kill a disciple of my Taiqing Academy? Are you looking for death?”

”And why shouldn’t I dare? Are only the people of Taiqing Academy allowed to throw their weight around in front of me, while I’m not allowed to kill them?” Lin Yun retorted coolly.

”Fine, fine, fine. It seems your Flawless Palace has grown some serious nerve. None of you will be leaving here today,” the man said, his voice dripping with killing intent.

The moment he finished speaking, the Taiqing Academy disciples drew their Spirit Soldiers. But to their surprise, the disciples of the Flawless Palace showed no sign of retreating. Instead, brimming with Battle Intent, they drew their own Spirit Soldiers in response.

’What in the world...’ What was wrong with these Flawless Palace disciples today? The Taiqing Academy disciples were all completely baffled.

They had bullied Flawless Palace disciples many times before, but when had they ever reacted like this? Not only were they not running away, they actually looked excited.

Even the three leading Core Disciples were inwardly puzzled. ’Have these Flawless Palace disciples lost their minds?’

”Does your Flawless Palace really want a fight? Our Eldest Brother is already on his way. Have you thought this through?” That’s how bullies are: the more you fear them, the more they torment you. The moment you’re no longer afraid, they’re the ones who panic.

Take the current Taiqing Academy Core Disciple, for example. Deep down, he certainly didn’t want a bloodbath with the Flawless Palace. Therefore, he invoked Wei Yunhang’s name to intimidate them.

”Hmph. Even if Wei Yunhang himself shows up, the Flawless Palace won’t be afraid,” a Core Disciple from Flawless Palace next to Lin Yun declared.

Hearing this, the Taiqing Academy disciples were completely stunned. ’Not even afraid of Wei Yunhang? Have these Flawless Palace disciples truly lost their minds? In the past, which one of them wasn’t terrified at the mere mention of Wei Yunhang’s name?’

Just then, a figure flew in swiftly from the distance. With a hearty laugh, the person called out, ”Haha, since when did the Flawless Palace become so fiery? You’re not even afraid of me, Wei Yunhang?”

With that, Wei Yunhang landed in front of the Taiqing Academy disciples. Upon seeing him, they all saluted. ”Eldest Brother.”

Wei Yunhang’s eyes immediately fell on Lin Yun. The two now stood facing each other. Looking at Lin Yun, Wei Yunhang smiled and said, ”Brother Lin, we meet again.”

”Yes. Though I just killed a Taiqing Academy disciple who was disrespectful to me. I wonder how Brother Wei intends to handle it?” Lin Yun replied, making no attempt to be cordial as he spoke in a measured tone.

Hearing this, Wei Yunhang’s brow twitched, but he quickly smiled again. ”Brother Lin, I presume this change in the Flawless Palace disciples is all thanks to you, isn’t it?”

Lin Yun didn’t deny it, simply smiling faintly. ”Doesn’t Brother Wei feel that the heavens over this Eastern Domain are about to change?”

Though Lin Yun’s words were spoken calmly, they were exceptionally arrogant—an arrogance that seemed to emanate from his very bones.

Watching Lin Yun confront Wei Yunhang without giving an inch, the disciples of the Flawless Palace stood tall with pride. The day had finally come when someone from their Palace could stand against one of the Five Great Demon Fiends.

Previously, whenever they faced such situations, the Flawless Palace disciples could only lower their heads and endure whatever humiliation was thrown their way.

”Haha, Brother Lin, you truly are extraordinary. But to make such claims, you need the strength to back them up.” After a moment of surprise, Wei Yunhang suddenly burst into a loud laugh.

”You’ll know if I have the strength once you test me, Brother Wei.” Having come this far, Lin Yun would not back down now. Although he knew he was no match for Wei Yunhang, he honestly wanted to fight him. Besides, with Little Ape’s help, he wouldn’t necessarily be defeated.

The two exchanged no more words. Almost simultaneously, a terrifying surge of Elemental Power erupted from both of them.

Right from the start, Lin Yun directly activated his War God Transformation. Without it, he couldn’t even dream of contending with Wei Yunhang; he would likely be killed in a single strike.

’A Secret Technique?’ Wei Yunhang murmured softly, then took the initiative and launched an attack.

As the two began to fight, the spectating disciples from both Taiqing Academy and Flawless Palace instinctively retreated dozens of meters, giving the two combatants ample space.

”Hmph. Daring to fight Brother Wei is just asking to die,” a Taiqing Academy disciple sneered.

Hearing this, someone from the Flawless Palace side retorted, ”We’ll see who’s the one dying.”

Both combatants immediately summoned their Spirit Soldiers. Wei Yunhang’s was a longsword, and right away, he unleashed Taiqing Academy’s ultimate skill, the Taiqing Nine Swords.

”Taiqing Nine Swords—One Sword Stuns the Wild Geese!” With a low shout, Wei Yunhang slashed out. Lin Yun had seen this move before; it was the same one the Core Disciple had used against him back in Fire City.

However, the difference between Wei Yunhang’s execution of the technique and that Core Disciple’s was like the difference between heaven and earth. The two couldn’t even be compared.

”Thunderfire Bombardment!” In response to Wei Yunhang’s One Sword Stuns the Wild Geese, Lin Yun directly unleashed his own attack. With a massive BOOM, their two techniques collided in mid-air.

The instant kill that the Taiqing Academy disciples had expected never happened. On the contrary, Lin Yun actually blocked Wei Yunhang’s strike. Their first exchange ended in a draw.

”He... he blocked it...” The Taiqing Academy disciples stared at Lin Yun in disbelief. ’Since when did the Flawless Palace produce someone like this?’

In contrast to the shock from the Taiqing Academy, the disciples of the Flawless Palace went absolutely wild. All the humiliation they had suppressed for years erupted in this single moment.

’This was a scene the Flawless Palace disciples had only ever witnessed in their dreams! From now on, the Flawless Palace would no longer be humiliated! You have your Demon Fiends, and now our Flawless Palace has one too!’

’In the past, you used your Demon Fiends to suppress and hunt us down. Now, the Flawless Palace can use our own Demon Fiend to suppress and hunt you!’

Quite a few Flawless Palace disciples felt their eyes grow moist as they gazed at Lin Yun standing proudly in the sky. ’This is our Eldest Brother of the Flawless Palace.’
