Ling Tian Sword God

Chapter 515: Chapter 514: Desperate Situation_1

Within the venue, everyone’s gaze was filled with immense shock. Could it be that Ye Nantian was about to die at Ling Chen’s hands?

”Ling Chen!”

Seeing Ling Chen about to cut down Ye Nantian, Shangguan Qiushui, Nie Wu Xiang, and other Divine Intent Sect disciples couldn’t help but exclaim in alarm. After all, Ye Nantian was the Deputy Sect Master of the Divine Intent Sect, and Ling Chen had also once been a member of the Divine Intent Sect. If Ling Chen killed Ye Nantian here, he would inevitably bear the vile reputation of murdering his elder.

”Ling Chen! Are you trying to kill your elder? It’s not too late to stop now!”

Feeling the biting killing intent radiating from Ling Chen, Ye Nantian’s expression changed, and he hurriedly shouted.

”Kill my elder?”

Ling Chen stopped in front of Ye Nantian and sneered, ”Killing you would be like slaughtering a pig or a dog. Do you think I still consider myself a Divine Intent Sect disciple?”

Instantly, the momentary hesitation in Ling Chen’s eyes vanished completely, replaced by an extremely intense ruthlessness and killing intent.

”You!”

Ye Nantian’s pupils constricted. But in the next moment, Ling Chen’s gaze turned abruptly sharp. The hand gripping his sword trembled violently. Then, under countless horrified stares, the Red Sky Sword ruthlessly pierced into Ye Nantian’s chest, into his heart!

The instant the sword blade pierced Ye Nantian’s body, a crisp sound echoed in the sky, causing the hearts of countless onlookers to pound violently in response.

With the sword thrust into his heart, Ye Nantian struggled only briefly before the life drained from his eyes. An expression of unwillingness and disbelief was etched on his face as he died on the spot.

The entire venue fell deathly silent. GULP. Someone couldn’t help but swallow hard. No one had anticipated this outcome. Ye Nantian, renowned as the Sect Sword Leader and a famous hero in the Martial World with a widespread reputation, had fallen just like that.

”Such an audacious beast!”

At this moment, Dong Shenglong, the Heavenly Void Palace Master, stared intently at Ling Chen, his voice chilling, ”Facing your former sect elder, you actually dared to strike a killing blow? You vile spawn! You have indeed fallen completely into the Demon Way, becoming an irredeemable Little Demon.”

”Why waste words on him? This little beast murdered his elders and acted perversely. His sins are so heinous that even dying a hundred times wouldn’t be enough to atone for them.”

”This child, despite his youth, already possesses a deeply ingrained demonic nature. If we don’t eliminate him soon, he will undoubtedly become a grave threat to our Righteous Martial World!”

”Kill this demon and rid the Martial World of this scourge!”

A group of martial artists from the Righteous Path all clamored to speak.

”Fellow Martial Artists, rest assured. Today, I, Dong Shenglong, will eliminate this scourge for the Martial World and slay this demon.”

Dong Shenglong cupped his fists towards the many martial artists, then his gaze, now filled with a biting killing intent, turned towards Ling Chen.

Narrowing his eyes, Dong Shenglong suddenly bellowed, ”The six Great Elders, hear my command! Surround him completely! Do not leave this Little Demon any chance to escape!”

”Yes!”

As his voice fell, six Ninth Layer Great Masters shot out, landing in different positions around Ling Chen, sealing off all his escape routes. Dong Shenglong, meanwhile, kept his eyes fixed on Ling Chen and walked towards him step by step.

Is he going to act personally?

Xiao Muyu’s pretty face changed slightly. Dong Shenglong? He was an expert of the Sky Apex Realm Third Layer, the Palace Master of the Sky Void Palace, a titan of the Martial World. Was an expert of this caliber actually going to deal with a junior like Ling Chen personally?

”Even Ye Nantian, who was at the Half-step Sky Apex Realm, was killed by Ling Chen. It’s inevitable that Dong Shenglong would take action personally.”

Nie Wu Xiang was not surprised. Ling Chen had first sent the Law Enforcement Elder of the Sky Void Palace flying, defeated Gentleman of the Wind, and ruined the wedding. Then, he had cut down Ye Nantian with his sword. This series of actions was a constant slap to the face of the Sky Void Palace. Although other Top Sky Apex Strongs were present, Dong Shenglong had the most reason to act against Ling Chen. Even if Dong Shenglong killed Ling Chen, he wouldn’t be branded a bully for picking on the weak.

Then what do we do? Let alone whether we are a match for the six Great Elders, Dong Shenglong alone is enough to kill all of us. Shangguan Qiushui’s pretty face also changed color; she had never even imagined being an enemy to an expert of the Sky Apex Realm Third Layer.

”What’s there to fear? Even if I have to risk my life, I will protect Brother Ling Chen!” Ling Yin’s small face showed unyielding fighting spirit, looking as if she was ready to fight to the death. Her Mental Power had already reached Level Nineteen. Even if she couldn’t defeat an expert like Dong Shenglong of the Sky Apex Realm Third Layer, she wasn’t afraid of the six Great Elders. However, just as she finished speaking, a sudden heavy blow struck the back of her neck, and she fainted.

Xiao Muyu and the others were all startled. The one who had knocked Ling Yin out was none other than Ling Chen.

”Ling Chen, what are you...” Xiao Muyu looked at Ling Chen in surprise, but at the same time, she could faintly guess his intentions.

Ling Chen looked at Xiao Muyu, Shangguan Qiushui, and the others, and smiled faintly, ”I am truly grateful that you all extended a helping hand during my time of crisis.”

”What are you saying? We are your senior martial brother and sisters,” Xiao Muyu frowned.

”I am no longer a Divine Intent Sect disciple.” Ling Chen shook his head, then a light flashed in his eyes. ”But you will always be my senior martial brother and sisters.”

”Today’s events have nothing to do with you. What you’ve done is already enough.”

”Junior Brother Ling Chen, since you consider us your senior martial brother and sisters, don’t say such distant words. Let’s just fight our way out together. The worst that can happen is death!” Shangguan Qiushui said resolutely.

”Death? Sister Shangguan, rest assured, I haven’t had enough of living yet.” Ling Chen smiled and waved his hand. ”It’s just that if any of you come to harm, my guilt would be immense. Trust me, leave here first.”

Shangguan Qiushui was about to say more, but Nie Wu Xiang stopped her. ”Our presence here is indeed futile; we would only be throwing our lives away needlessly. Let’s trust Ling Chen.”

Hearing this, Shangguan Qiushui and Xiao Muyu fell silent. They only hated their own lack of strength, their inability to help Ling Chen.

”Help me take good care of this girl.” Ling Chen handed the unconscious Ling Yin to Xiao Muyu. Looking at Ling Yin’s still somewhat childish little face, Ling Chen sighed. He, as an older brother, had truly not fulfilled his duty of care; he was far too derelict.

”Junior Brother Ling Chen, take care!” Shangguan Qiushui’s pretty face showed her inner conflict, but she eventually picked up Ling Yin and walked towards the venue’s exit. Xiao Muyu also bit her lip, and together with Nie Wu Xiang, exited the venue.

”I didn’t expect this Little Demon to actually have some conscience,” Dong Shenglong looked at Ling Chen with an indifferent gaze, his voice cold.

Ling Chen remained expressionless and stated seriously, ”A true man takes responsibility for his own actions. How could he implicate his relatives and friends?”

”Hmph. Even so, you will not escape death today.” Dong Shenglong flicked his sleeve, and an azure Long Knife appeared in his hand. An immense, bone-chilling aura suddenly spread out from the Long Knife.

At the same time, the six Sky Void Palace Great Elders also took a step forward, pressing closer to Ling Chen.

Kid, not even Immortals can save you now. In this desperate situation, the Human Emperor’s deceptively harmless-sounding voice suddenly echoed in Ling Chen’s mind.
