Chapter 159 - The Token Beneath the Cliff

Whoosh—

No sooner had Fang Kong and the others departed than Ye Suxin’s sword flew straight at Lin Bai.

“Ye Suxin, after a few months we last met, your cultivation has improved this much.

Indeed, my instincts were right.

If I had not killed you, recurring trouble would have ensued.

“Alas, Xu Zailong and Xiang Tianyi managed to save you back then.”

Lin Bai evaded Ye Suxin’s sword attack and said with a faint smile.

At this point in time, both Lin Bai and Ye Suxin, the two ‘Newcomer Kings’ who previously underwent the trial together, met again.

“Lin Bai, today, I will avenge the sword attack from that day, and I’ll make sure I don’t leave you alive out of Withered Mountain Ridge,” Ye Suxin said, his expression stern.

“Hahaha, I doubt you’re even capable of killing me,” Lin Bai laughed coldly.

“What if I were to join in?” At this moment, Zhang Qun, a warrior at the ninth level of the Earth Martial Realm, emerged from the crowds of the Divine Alliance.

He stared at Lin Bai, letting his murderous intent be known.

“Ninth Level of the Earth Martial Realm!”

Lin Bai’s pupils contracted as he recognized Zhang Qun’s cultivation.

“I’m going to kill this beast!”

At this moment, Lin Zi’er stepped forward and coldly told Ye Suxin.

Pride and scorn filled Lin Zi’er’s face as she looked at Ye Suxin, just as she would at a mere ant.

This gaze made Ye Suxin uncomfortable all over, making him want to unsheath his sword and slaughter Lin Zi’er.

“Lin Bai, it’s time to settle our scores,” Lin Zi’er’s eyes filled with murderous intent.

Just thinking about the time in Lingxi City when Lin Bai severed her arm with a single strike brought her tremendous embarrassment and pain, making Lin Zi’er’s whole body shake with rage.

“Lin Zi’er, even if you didn’t come looking for me, I’d come looking for you.”

“You’re right.

It’s about time we settle our grievances.”

Lin Bai spoke coldly.

Lin Zi’er arrived with the warriors of the Canghai Sky Palace.

Ye Suxin arrived with the warriors of the Divine Alliance.

The two groups surrounded Lin Bai tightly.

“Is she the newly emerged Saintess from the Canghai Yuntai Palace?

She has a Heavenly Grade Martial Soul, my goodness, she certainly is formidable.”

“The other is Ye Suxin from the Spirit Sword Sect, the betrothed of Spirit Sword Sect’s Young Sect Master, Su Cang.”

“What are the two most powerful women in these four major sects doing?”

“Does the man have a grudge with them?”

“Good heavens, did he play around with them and then dumped them?

Is it time to pay the price for his philandering now?”

A group of warriors whispered among themselves.

Since they couldn’t enter the relics of the Wind God Sect now, these warriors were quite interested in watching Lin Bai and Lin Zi’er, as well as Ye Suxin’s standoff.

“Enough talk, kill him!”

Ye Suxin just wanted to kill Lin Bai as soon as possible and did not want to talk much with him.

He swung his Sharp Sword, breaking apart the Cloud Sky.

Carrying the power to shatter a mountain, he aimed straight for Lin Bai’s chest.

The massive force made Lin Bai feel some pressure.

The fierce Sword Qi rustled Lin Bai’s hair and clothing, shooting straight towards his face.

“Ye Suxin, with your cultivation at the fifth level of the Earth Martial Realm, I highly doubt you could kill me!”

“Astonishing Wind Sword Skill, Wind Rise!”

Lin Bai instantly attacked.

He pushed his speed to the limit, turning into a series of Waning Shadows as he charged at Ye Suxin.

“Strike!”

A sword fell, shattering Ye Suxin’s Sword Qi.

The Sword Aura concentrated on the tip of the blade, shooting straight towards Ye Suxin’s forehead.

“Damn you, stop right there!”

Seeing Ye Suxin in danger at this moment, Zhang Qun immediately intervened.

The power of the ninth level of the Earth Martial Realm exploded, sweeping up a storm and striking Lin Bai’s sword.

Bang—

Zhang Qun threw a powerful punch, hitting Lin Bai’s Sinister Wind Sword, and shocked the sword open.

The profound power seeped into Lin Bai’s body through the sword, shaking his whole body and making him spit out a mouthful of blood in fury.

“A warrior in the Inner Gate’s top hundred list, at the ninth level of the Earth Martial Realm, is indeed formidable.”

Lin Bai locked eyes with Zhang Qun, feeling an intense pressure.

Now, Lin Bai was at the fourth level of Earth Martial Realm, and yet he was facing Lin Zi’er, Ye Suxin, Zhang Qun, a group of warriors from the Canghai Sky Palace, and the Divine Alliance Warriors group.

Lin Bai was still under attack from all sides.

If the battle continued, Lin Bai would have a hard time escaping death.

“Lin Bai, today, I’m afraid you won’t be able to escape from me again.”

Lin Zi’er sneered at that moment, took a step forward and was shrouded in a holy and pure white light.

A sacred light radiated from Lin Zi’er, dreamlike and illusory, which left the surrounding warriors astounded.

“What kind of glow is this?

It’s so pure.

I feel like she’s like a fairy.”

“Yes, she is indeed pure and flawless.”

Many warriors were wide-eyed, staring at Lin Zi’er, some even began to worship her involuntarily.

“Lin Zi’er, you seem to forget that it was you who fled from me in disgrace.

If it weren’t for Murong Qi’s intervention, you would have died under my hand half a year ago.

Have you forgotten that?”

“Have you forgotten the pain once your arm healed?”

Lin Bai spoke with a stern look on his face.

Hearing Lin Bai mention her arm, Lin Zi’er was reminded of the pain she experienced when her arm was severed and she was immediately filled with rage.

“That was the greatest humiliation of my life.

But today, I will kill you and erase all my humilieties!”

“Primordial God-Extinguishing Light!”

Lin Zi’er flicked her finger, and a seven-colored light radiated everywhere.

Upon its path, it leveled everything on heaven and earth.

This soft light contained power capable of destroying heaven and earth!

“Astonishing Wind Sword Skill, the third move, Wind Calamity!”

The sword was pointed to the sky, and angrily swung down!

Endless sword aura converged, boundless power condensed upon the sword.

Boom!

A loud noise, the storm swept in, Sword Qi assaulted the heavens, demolishing everything.

“An ant trying to shake a tree!” Lin Zi’er sneered.

She stirred up True Qi, the divine light abruptly rushed forward, shattered Lin Bai’s Sword Qi as if it were tofu, and fiercely hit Lin Bai’s chest, knocking him flying.

“Mad, the realm difference is too big.

There’s no comparison at all!”

“Run!”

Lin Bai took another hit from Lin Zi’er, his whole body in disarray, bloodied all over, he cursed under his breath, got up from the ground, and turned into a streak of bloody light shooting into the distance.

Although Lin Bai bore grudges against Lin Zi’er and Ye Suxin and wanted to kill them very much.

But Lin Bai was not foolish.

Lin Bai knew that his cultivation at the fourth level of the Earth Martial Realm wasn’t a match for Lin Zi’er and Ye Suxin, so he didn’t plan to fight them to the death.

Revenge is a dish best served cold.

Lin Bai knew exactly what he was doing.

“After such a long time, Fang Kong and Lijian Xing should have found quite a few tokens by now.”

Lin Bai rushed toward the direction of the cliff.

“Stop, dreaming of escape?”

Ye Suxin and Lin Zi’er both roared in fury, leading their men and horses in pursuit.

Just at that moment, someone by the edge of the cliff noticed a change in the Sword Alliance Warriors, and started yelling: “Hurry, there are the bones of Wind God Sect disciples under this cliff, and the disciple tokens required to enter the Wind God Sect.”

“What!

Disciple Tokens?”

“I get it, the Wind God Sect’s Mountain Protection Array will not stop us as long as we have the Wind God Sect disciple’s token.”

“Mad, we can finally go in.”

All the warriors gathered outside the Wind God Sect rushed toward the cliff in a frenzy of joy.

“Does this man have a pig’s brain?” Lin Bai cursed at the man who had just been yelling.

Now that a large number of warriors were entering under the cliff, and there were only so few Wind God Sect disciple tokens, it was a case of too many wolves and not enough meat.

An inevitable melee was on the horizon!
