Chapter 1794: A Strong Wind Rises



Chapter 1794: A Strong Wind Rises

Despite having seen how Lin Xun had dominated Ma Taizhen, it shocked him greatly that Lin Xun had just killed two Saint-Kings like chopping up vegetables.

Where exactly does this guy…come from?

Even the top ten menaces on the Starry Sky Big Saint Rankings can’t be as savage as him, right?

Bang!

Just as Lin Xun was just about to collect the spoils of war, a dazzling firework suddenly shot out from Chai Feng’s corpse, splitting the sky as it flew off.

“This isn’t good, it’s a message talisman used to call for help!” Yu Yunhe’s face changed drastically.

Obviously, Chai Feng had been late to make this call for help before he had gotten killed by Lin Xun.

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes, then started sorting out the loot as if nothing had happened.

Six Saint Treasures of varying quality were tossed to the No-Nonsense Bow’s weapon spirit.

An array of pill bottles and jars, dozens of divine herbs and materials, three hundred and sixty thousand dao crystals, and other miscellaneous items added up to a rather staggering value.

From this, one could see how wealthy Saint-Kings were, given the fact that Lin Xun had only been able to earn over four hundred thousand dao crystals after intensive labor at Yunyan Treasure House.

Relatively speaking, money was made faster through killing. One could even call it a highly profitable business.

“Let’s go.”

Shortly after, Lin Xun left the scene on the speedy Grand Universe Ark, not worrying one bit about possible retaliation from the Yunyan Breeze Sect.

……

At the Yunyan Breeze Sect.

Whoosh!

The message talisman flew into the sect in the form of a dazzling light streak.

“Sect Leader, bad news! Elder Wei Chong and Chai Feng have called for help!” resounded a panicked cry outside the grand hall.

Quickly afterward, Sect Leader Lan Tianyu personally brought a group of experts and departed at full speed. They quickly arrived at the location of the battle.

However, they were one step too late as Lin Xun had already left.

“Dead…” Lan Tianyu spotted the corpses of Wei Chong and Chai Feng after a brief scan. His heart sank, and his face was unsightly.

“This can’t be!” Lan Caiyi, who had followed along, shouted out in dismay, “The enemy is only a supreme Big Saint! How could he possibly do this to the two senior uncles?”

“What exactly happened?” questioned Lan Tianyu with a livid face.

Although the Yunyan Breeze Sect was a first-grade organization famous throughout the Great Yu World, they did not have too many Saint-Kings.

And now, they had just lost two of those at once!

How could Lan Tianyu not be furious? His heart was bleeding.

Lan Caiyi’s pretty face paled. She didn’t dare to hide it anymore and told her father everything about Lin Xun.

“You idiot! That’s a dao rune founder who is more powerful than even Master Mo, so he is not someone you can just go and offend!” Lan Tianyu’s beard and hair flew in a fit of rage as a terrifying look flashed in his eyes.

Lan Caiyi shivered as anxiety filled her.

“Sect Leader, since it has already happened, the most urgent thing now is to chase after the culprit. They must not have fled far,” said an elder heavily.

The others nodded in agreement with seething murderous intent.

Two of their Saint-King elders had been murdered right in their Yunyan Breeze Sect’s territory. This was not only a heavy loss, but also an utter humiliation. It would be a considerable blow to the sect’s prestige if word of this spread.

Lan Tianyu took a deep breath and made his decision, “Pass my order: all of our elders presiding outside are to cooperate and search for the culprit!”

“Yes.” The crowd received the order and hastily retreated.

After everyone else was gone, Lan Tianyu let out a long sigh. He knew that it was too late even if he deployed all of their force now.

How could a dao rune founder capable of killing Saint-Kings be found so easily?

Lan Tianyu didn’t even need to guess to know how slim the chances of capturing the murderer were.

Lan Caiyi gritted her teeth. “Father, this happened because of me, I will bear all the responsibility.”

Bam!

Lan Tianyu slapped his daughter, his expression gloomy. “I’ve really spoiled you too much. Return to the sect and go straight to the forbidden area behind the mountain. You shall not leave without my permission!”

Lan Caiyi’s cheek was red and swollen, and her lips were bleeding, but she knew very well that her father was doing this to protect her. If he had chosen to seriously pursue this matter, then her punishment would only be much more severe.

She said in a low voice, “Father, I must tell Yunzheng about this so that he can make preparations in advance.”

Lan Tianyu’s expression flickered, but in the end, he nodded.

……

Just as Lan Tianyu had predicted, how could it be easy to catch someone in this big world when he really intended to leave?

A day later.

Lin Xun left the Yunyan Breeze Sect’s territory without any danger. Following Yu Yunhe’s guidance, he headed toward the Jiuhua Sacred Mountain where the Imperial Yu Clan was located.

Meanwhile, news of ‘a mysterious dao rune founder whose skill dominates Grandmaster Mo’s’ rapidly circulated around Yunyan City and became a sensation in every corner.

The identity of this dao rune founder surnamed Lin also became a widely discussed topic.

At the same time, news about the unfortunate death of two Saint-King elders also spread like a storm and raised an uproar.

However, only a handful of people knew that the murderer was the mysterious dao rune master who was currently causing a sensation in the city.

In this regard, Yunyan Breeze Sect was bitter, angry, and helpless. But what else could they do when the murderer had already made a complete getaway?

Because of Lan Caiyi, Lan Tianyu’s position as the sect leader was unstable. This father and daughter duo had been receiving a lot of criticism.

After all, in a first-class sect like the Yunyan Breeze Sect, Lan Tianyu was not the one who could call all the shots!

After knowing about all this, Lan Caiyi was in immense anguish and self-reproach. If she had known of this outcome, then she would have rather swallowed her anger than offended Lin Xun.

Unfortunately, it was already too late to regret.

The bad consequence was the price she had to pay for her action!

……

The Jiuhua Sacred Mountain was a renowned blessed land in the Great Yu World that had been inhabited by the Imperial Yu Clan for generations.

“What? I’ve only just arrived home, and there’s already a message from Caiyi? She really does care about me. Bring it to me quickly,” said Yu Yunzheng with a big smile in an opulent palace.

He considered getting engaged to Lan Caiyi one of the wisest decisions he had ever made.

Not only was Lan Caiyi beautiful and intelligent, but she also had a leader of a powerful sect as her father!

For Yu Yunzheng, this was an empowering support that could give him a great deal of say in the competition for the position of the next patriarch.

“Here it is, Young Master.” An old man respectfully presented a letter.

After opening it and giving it a quick read, Yu Yunzheng’s smile froze on his face. His pupils dilated, and he was so shocked that he almost jumped up from his seat.

“Two Saint-Kings of the Yunyan Breeze Sect…were killed by that Lin kid…” A storm took over Yu Yunzheng’s heart and also his face.

If he hadn’t known for sure that this letter was written by Lan Caiyi herself, then he wouldn’t have been able to believe the content.

It was only after a long time that Yu Yunzheng calmed down a little and fell into deep thought.

“The situation isn’t good. Now that that fool Yu Yunhe has gotten the support of such an expert, once he returns to the clan, I’m afraid it won’t be easy to take the position of future patriarch from him…

“Caiyi was right in her letter, it is imperative that I join forces with others to eliminate Yu Yunhe first and ensure that the inheritance will not fall into his hands!”

Thinking of this, Yu Yunzheng gritted his teeth and made a decision. “Send a message to Yu Yunqiao, Yu Yunxing, Yu Yunlong…”

He listed a dozen names in one breath and said, “Tell them to come see me right away to discuss something important. Tell them that they must show up!”

The old man received the order and hurriedly left.

One incense stick of time later.

In the opulent golden palace, over a dozen men and women had gathered, looking outstanding in their luxurious clothes.

These were all the leading figures of the Imperial Yu Clan’s young generation. Each could be called a dragon and phoenix among cultivators, dazzling to the extreme.

But to Yu Yunzheng, these relatives were his strong rivals for the position of future clan head!

“Now that everyone is here, shouldn’t you tell us what the big deal is, Third Brother?” asked a woman in a fiery red dress. She was Yu Yunyan, whose age ranked fifth in the young generation.

“That’s right, Old Third. Everyone’s time is precious, so just say what you have to say,” agreed another person impatiently.

This person was sitting like a dragon coiling in its territory. His brows were sparse and broad, his eyes were like lightning, and his aura was ferocious. He was Yu Yunlong, whose age was ranked second among the group.

Yu Yunzheng suppressed the discomfort in his heart and coldly said, “Please settle down, everyone. First Brother hasn’t yet arrived.”

First Brother?

The gazes of the crowd flickered.

Among the young generation of the Yu Clan, Yu Yunfeng was the oldest and was also the most prestigious and influential.

However, his mother was only a concubine of his father, so his status was inferior to those present who were birthed by their fathers’ lawful wives.

“Pardon my late arrival.” It wasn’t long before Yu Yunfeng strode into the grand hall. His figure was lofty and majestic, his face was resolute, and he had a threatening aura.

No one got up from their seats to greet him.

Unbothered by their reaction, Yu Yunfeng smiled and found himself a seat.

“Now, can you tell us what’s going on, Old Third?” said Yu Yunlong.

All eyes turned to Yu Yunzheng.

Taking a deep breath, Yu Yunzheng said in a heavy tone, “Everyone, the competition will begin in less than ten days, I’m sure you all are focusing on preparing for this. However, I’m afraid that there’s something you have no idea about.

“Our Sixth Brother has gained the support of a formidable dao rune founder. Moreover, as he’s rushing back to the clan, he certainly will participate in the competition should nothing unexpected happen.”

The crowd was all stunned for a moment.

Someone couldn’t help but snort, “That fool has the guts to participate? Then let him. As long as he isn’t scared of getting beaten up.”

His remark earned a laugh from quite many people.

Who in the clan didn’t know about Yu Yunhe? They all considered him an unworthy piece of trash who decorated himself to cover up his loser nature!

Only Yu Yunfeng, who was the eldest brother, frowned. He thought these relatives were going overboard to directly call Yu Yunhe a fool.

However, he was also aware his younger brother Yu Yunhe…was indeed too much of a playboy. Over all these years, Yu Yunhe had let the patriarch down so many times that the latter was about to completely give up on him.

“Everyone.” Yu Yunzheng knocked on the table and coldly said, “I may as well tell you that our Sixth Brother’s new helper just killed two Saint-Kings!”

The moment this news came out, the entire room was shocked into silence.
