The Sword God of the Universe

Long Xiang and the Second Sect Master of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect’s Sacred Artifacts and the Sumeru Ring were tucked away as Jing Yan’s gaze shifted toward the Great Sect Master on the platform.

As for those martial artists who had already fled, Jing Yan did not pursue them. Even if he had chased after them, he might have caught one or two, but it wasn’t of much significance.

At this moment, the numerous martial artists atop the Rainbow Peak were all stunned like dumbfounded chickens.

The outcome of this grand battle had completely deviated from their expectations; they could not have imagined that Jing Yan alone, under the suppression of the Sect Suppressing Sacred Artifact of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect, could actually defeat over ten martial artists of the Saint Realm and even kill two of them.

Even Fang Family’s Young Master, Fang Jie, and the guardian of Fang Jie, Elder Que, a martial artist of the Second Realm of Holy, had died here.

For a long time, they could not believe what they had witnessed.

Jiao Zhan and his two companions were also dumbstruck.

How could they have imagined that Mr. Jing, who had come with them, possessed such outrageously powerful Martial Arts Cultivation? He was practically a monster!

Even when Jing Yan spent over twenty million Top-grade Spirit Stones to buy Divine Light Grass and a damaged Defense Holy Artifact at the auction at Feiyu Building, they had only thought Jing Yan was very wealthy, but they could never have guessed how formidable his Martial Arts Cultivation could be. In fact, they had always assumed that Jing Yan was just a martial artist of Emperor Realm like themselves.

Now they understood how wildly wrong their assumptions had been!

The Great Sect Master of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect met Jing Yan’s gaze. At that moment, the Great Sect Master’s feelings were extremely complicated, with a myriad of thoughts flooding her mind. She was unsure whether to continue controlling the Sect Suppressing Sacred Artifact to attack Jing Yan.

If she continued to wield the Rainbow Divine Bridge against Jing Yan, the possibility of killing him was nearly zero. But what should she do if she ceased her attack?

During the previous battle, Jing Yan had told her not to act, but she had completely disregarded Jing Yan’s proposal at that time.

"Great Sect Master, please stop!" sighed the Third Sect Master of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect, Bai Xue’s master, as she looked at the Great Sect Master.

"But our Rainbow Gown Divine Sect’s Second Sect Master..." The Great Sect Master wanted to cease her attack, but thinking of the Second Sect Master’s death, and remembering the Fang Family Young Master’s death at the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect, she felt that if Jing Yan was not left behind, the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect might face even greater troubles.

"Swish!"

Just then, Jing Yan, wielding his longsword, charged toward the platform once more.

Jing Yan had no intention of stopping either.

If it weren’t for his Three-layered Sword Intent transforming into the Sword Intent Divine Ability, he would have died there today. Previously, the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect had not concealed their desire to kill him at all.

Furthermore, the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect had actually forced Bai Xue to marry that hideous and ferocious man from the Fang Family.

All this had caused the anger in Jing Yan’s heart to remain unsettled. If he hadn’t arrived at the Rainbow Gown Divine City in time, what would have become of Bai Xue? Jing Yan did not dare to think too deeply about it.

All of this was caused by the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect!

"Screech!" Seeing Jing Yan charging over, the Great Sect Master quickly manipulated the Rainbow Divine Bridge, trying to block Jing Yan.

However, under the assault of the Sword Intent Divine Ability, the myriad of rainbow lights formed by the Rainbow Divine Bridge also paled in comparison.

"Hum!"

Just then, a long and deep breath arose in the sky above the Rainbow Peak.

Feeling this breath, Jing Yan halted in midair, his eyes intently following it.

Above the heavens, an old man with white hair, stepping through the void, approached. With each step she took, it seemed as though she wielded the force of ten thousand jun, causing the space to tremble.

"Old Sect Master!" The Great Sect Master and the Third Sect Master, seeing the newcomer, quickly bowed respectfully.

The elderly figure with white hair gave them a glance and gently shook her head.

Then, she looked at Jing Yan.

"Daoist friend, might you stop now? Shall we leave it at this?" the elderly figure asked Jing Yan in a calm voice.

Jing Yan kept his eyes fixed on her.

He could feel that the old woman’s presence was extremely dense, likely a strong practitioner of the Saint Realm Third Stage.

If a powerful practitioner of the Saint Realm Third Stage were to control the Rainbow Divine Bridge, Jing Yan felt that his chances of winning, were he to fight, might not be great.

"Are you the Old Sect Master of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect?" Jing Yan asked in a firm voice.

"Indeed!" nodded the elderly figure.

"Daoist friend, today you have killed many, including our Rainbow Gown Divine Sect’s Second Sect Master. So, please let this be the end," the elderly figure continued.

"This be the end?" Jing Yan scoffed coldly, "Earlier when I was in grave danger, about to die, why didn’t the Old Sect Master appear then to stop them and let me go?"

Although the opponent was a practitioner of the Saint Realm Third Stage, Jing Yan was not entirely without the power to fight back. Even if he couldn’t defeat the opponent, he should be able to protect himself. If he couldn’t beat her, he could just leave. Jing Yan, who had mastered the Sword Intent Divine Ability, was not a practitioner of the Saint Realm Third Stage that one could easily detain.

"The daoist friend speaks the truth; I indeed knew of the previous situation. At that time, I did not intend to intervene. But don’t you think, Daoist Friend, that forcing to take away the Sacred Maiden from the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect, if our sect showed no reaction, how could we stand in the Tianxia Divine Domain?"

"If the Daoist Friend wants to take away the Sacred Maiden, naturally you need sufficient power. If the power is insufficient, then being killed can’t be blamed on my Rainbow Gown Divine Sect."

"These words might sound unpleasant, but please think deeply about their reasoning, Daoist Friend. If you were in the position of the Sect Master of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect, could you watch the sect’s trained Sacred Maiden being taken away under those circumstances?"

"Hmph, had I been the Sect Master of the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect, I would never coerce the Sacred Maiden to marry Young Master Fang Jie," Jing Yan jeered.

"Different positions, different views on the same matter." frёewebηovel.cѳm

"Regardless, please let this be the end; take Saintess Bai Xue with you," said the elderly figure smoothly, showing no sign of anger.

Jing Yan pondered for a moment.

Seeing Jing Yan thoughtful, the elderly figure did not urge him, simply waiting quietly.

Jing Yan’s gaze shifted, landing on Saintess Sang Qing.

"Old Sect Master, it seems that this Saintess Sang Qing from your Rainbow Gown Divine Sect has quite a despicable character," Jing Yan smirked.

"Indeed, the character of Sang Qing Saintess is not virtuous. Sect Master, take her spirit cultivation from her, and expel her from the Rainbow Gown Divine Sect," the elderly figure commanded in a detached voice, without even glancing at Sang Qing.

"Yes!" answered the Sect Master.

She certainly dared not disobey the Old Sect Master’s commands, nor question them.

"Sect Master!" Sang Qing, hearing this, paled, her angry eyes filled with unmistakable panic.

"Very well! Let it be so for today! Old Sect Master, I take my leave!" Jing Yan gave a slight bow to the Old Sect Master, then immediately flew away.

He was quite satisfied with the Old Sect Master’s decisiveness.
