The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 949: Chapter 949: Kill Ouyang Lin

Min Huo and the others are not in the Saint Realm; they cannot use divine thoughts to communicate. Their conversations are easily overheard by those in the Saint Realm.

So, they stopped talking and decided to find a secluded place to carefully plan.

Just as they were about to move.

”Swish!”

The six of them only felt a flash before their eyes, and then saw a figure suddenly appear.

Everyone was shocked, cold sweat almost dripping down. Anyone who can approach them silently must be a martial artist in the Saint Realm.

”Hall Master Jing Yan?” In their panic, they took a closer look and discovered to their surprise that the one who had just appeared was Jing Yan, someone they hadn’t seen for decades.

Since Jing Yan left the Heavenly Origin Continent and entered Despair Abyss, indeed decades had passed.

”Hall Masters.” Jing Yan nodded towards the six people.

”Lord Jing Yan, how... how did you appear here?” Kui Long’s expression was exaggerated.

Kui Long was quite an interesting person; initially, he had conflicts with Jing Yan. Later, he was directly intimidated by Jing Yan’s displayed strength and even helped him quite a bit.

”Indeed! Hall Master Jing Yan, we heard Mr. Zhong has been searching for your whereabouts, seemingly with malicious intent. The Holy City has fallen, the Holy Master and Chief Manager Chang Huan were killed in battle, and the Splendid Dojo is in ruins. Those who survived have escaped the Holy City.”

”How did you get to the Holy City? There’s a powerful figure named Ouyang Lin in the Holy Palace; if he discovers you, it would be terrible,” Leng Hongying said anxiously.

”Don’t ask for now, listen to me,” Jing Yan waved his hand.

”I came here precisely to find Ouyang Lin.” Hearing these Hall Masters speak, Jing Yan felt somewhat comforted.

He appeared to test their loyalty. If these people had truly surrendered to Ouyang Lin, even though Jing Yan wouldn’t kill them personally, he would certainly feel disheartened. But now, seeing their attitudes, it seemed they had only superficially surrendered to Ouyang Lin.

”Does Ouyang Lin have two women with him?” Jing Yan asked them.

The Holy Palace is under Ouyang Lin’s control, so Jing Yan didn’t use his divine thoughts directly to investigate the Holy Palace. The Holy Palace is a living entity, now controlled by Ouyang Lin, a half-step Void God. Jing Yan was concerned his divine thoughts would be detected by Ouyang Lin.

According to prior information, Chu Lianxing and Gao Feng should be with Ouyang Lin, so Jing Yan wanted to confirm this.

Ouyang Lin certainly deserved to die, but Jing Yan’s priority was to rescue his mother and wife.

”Indeed, two women are held in the inner hall of the Holy Hall by Ouyang Lin. Jing Lunnan is also confined in the inner hall,” Min Huo nodded and said.

They didn’t recognize Chu Lianxing and didn’t know she was Jing Yan’s mother. As for Gao Feng, they were equally unfamiliar; they hadn’t seen her before Ouyang Lin brought her.

”Confined in the inner hall?” Jing Yan’s eyes flashed.

”Yes, in the inner hall, tightly guarded by Ouyang Lin, no one can approach. Hall Master Jing Yan, who are those two?” Leng Hongying asked.

”It’s urgent, we’ll discuss later. Hall Masters, wait here for me; I’ll be back soon.” Jing Yan’s gaze swept towards the Holy Mountain.

He had to act decisively, not giving Ouyang Lin time to respond.

”Lord Jing Yan, what are you going to do?” Kui Long shouted.

However, as he spoke, Jing Yan’s figure vanished from his sight.

”No way, wasn’t Hall Master Jing Yan entering the Holy Mountain?”

”This... it’s too dangerous, Hall Master Jing Yan doesn’t realize how terrifying Ouyang Lin is. Although Hall Master Jing Yan is in the Saint Realm, Ouyang Lin is a half-step Void God.”

”What should we do?”

”Ouyang Lin has been searching for Hall Master Jing Yan. Now, with Hall Master Jing Yan charging in, isn’t he walking into a trap?” Several Hall Masters anxiously spoke.

They were worried about Jing Yan but couldn’t help.

”Shwoosh!”

Jing Yan directly ascended the Holy Mountain.

The defense energy of the Holy Palace was activated, and Jing Yan immediately felt the energy fluctuations. He reached out and tore; the defense layer of the Holy Palace was ripped apart. Then Jing Yan used the Nihility Divine Ability to enter the Holy Hall. At the same time, Jing Yan’s divine thoughts covered the Holy Hall.

”Ouyang Lin!” Jing Yan saw Ouyang Lin inside the Holy Hall.

He also saw his mother Chu Lianxing and others in the inner hall.

Using the Nihility Divine Ability, Jing Yan reached the inner hall, appearing before Chu Lianxing and the others.

Chu Lianxing, Gao Feng, and Jing Lunnan were all imprisoned here. Since their confinement, they had understood this was targeting Jing Yan. They were all Jing Yan’s closest individuals.

If not to deal with Jing Yan, why specifically imprison them?

”Father, Mother!”

”Feng’er...”

Standing before the trio, Jing Yan called out painfully.

”Jing Yan?”

”Husband?” The three of them opened their eyes wide.

Outside the hall, Ouyang Lin’s face changed drastically. He controlled the Holy Palace, so he sensed a disturbance when Jing Yan ripped apart the defense energy.

”No!” Ouyang Lin roared, realizing something, and rushed to the inner hall. However, his speed was far slower than Jing Yan’s, especially since Jing Yan directly used the Nihility Divine Ability.

When Ouyang Lin reached the inner hall, he saw Jing Yan standing with Jing Lunnan and the others.

Jing Yan turned his gaze to Ouyang Lin.

”Jing Yan!” Ouyang Lin muttered, his eyes shifting.

He knew he was no match for Jing Yan. He had witnessed Jing Yan kill the Divine Beast Fire Poison Scorpion at the site where the Law appeared; Jing Yan’s strength far surpassed his own.

”It’s truly surprising that you dared to show up.” Ouyang Lin’s eyes flickered, thinking of a strategy.

He understood that if a fight ensued, he might only face death. To survive, he needed another approach.

”Ouyang Lin,” Jing Yan said in a low voice, ”I should have killed you in the Chaotic Land. If I had killed you then, perhaps fewer people would have died.”

”Why such immense anger? Look, your family is still alive,” Ouyang Lin glanced at Jing Lunnan and the others.

He had imprisoned these three to lure and threaten Jing Yan. However, the situation was now different from what Ouyang Lin had envisioned. Jing Yan did appear, but Ouyang Lin’s plan to threaten Jing Yan with them had failed.

He underestimated Jing Yan’s abilities.

”Ouyang Lin, as a half-step Void God among the natives, you willingly serve Mr. Zhong. You deserve death!” Killing intent surged from Jing Yan.

”Wait...”

”Jing Yan, I’m Mr. Zhong’s man. You should know Mr. Zhong’s strength. If you kill me, do you know the consequences?” Ouyang Lin hurriedly shouted, sensing Jing Yan’s murderous intent.
