Celestial Dragon Sword Venerable-Chapter 230: Frontline Slaughter

Ye Shuiyan gave Qin Tianzhao a cold glance, stopping Wang Yufei before she could speak, and pulled her another hundred meters away.

"You treacherous wastes, you bitches! Once this is over, the two of you can get out of the Nine Swords Sect yourselves!"

Qin Shuzong’s face was grim as he directly overrode Chen Fengyan to issue the command.

Chen Fengyan frowned but did not speak up to stop him.

Ye Shuiyan and Wang Yufei both shuddered, their faces paling slightly, but neither said a word.

"Tianling, these old fools are all around the Sword Tribulation First Refining Realm. Do you want us to manifest a Clone and take action? We should head to the Cyan Dragon Holy Land quickly; no need to waste time here."

Wan Jimie’s voice, heavy with killing intent, came from within the Holy Sword.

"Master, these people are so annoying!"

Ancient Fairy also sent a message, her voice full of displeasure toward Qin Shuzong and the others.

’No need,’ Ye Tianling replied in his mind. ’They’re just a few old fools at the Half-step Sword Tribulation Realm. It’s not that much trouble. I can cut them all down in a few strikes!’

Then, his gaze locked onto Qin Shuzong. "Old dog, you’re in a real hurry to die! In that case, I’ll grant you your wish."

Hearing this, Qin Shuzong burst into laughter. "Ye Tianling? Never mind that the Cyan Dragon Saint Master crippled you with his Soul-Slaying Bone Shattering technique and stripped you of your Talent. Even at your peak, who the hell did you think you were?

"We didn’t move against you before, partly out of respect for Wan Jianyun and Die Xiyue, and partly because the Ten Thousand Swords Sacred Land held you in some regard!"

"But now?"

"Heh, you half-breed experiment, you piece of trash. After you were exiled by the Dragon Race—and just the day before yesterday, you were exiled by the Ten Thousand Swords Sacred Land as well! You no longer have any connection to the Myriad Swords Sect or the Nine Swords Sect under its command!"

"You’re just a stray dog, a worthless piece of filth spat on by everyone, a low-born cur!"

Qin Tianzhao also roared with laughter. "You’re probably not trying to use the Celestial Travel Transmission Array to enter the Cyan Dragon Race’s territory, are you? You want to hide in the Ten Thousand Beasts Demon Cave and take the trial, right? Too bad, you’re not qualified anymore, because you’ve already been blacklisted by every sect and power out there!"

"This is the miserable fate of a son of a bitch like you! From now on, no power will ever be willing to take you in!"

"Of course, you won’t have a future anyway, because right now, you’re going to die!"

As Qin Tianzhao spoke, he had already gathered his powerful Sword Soul and taken the initiative to strike at Ye Tianling.

At the same time, Xiao Zhengnan, who had been waiting for an opportunity, struck at the exact same moment as Qin Tianzhao.

With the intention of letting Qin Tianzhao and Xiao Zhengnan temper themselves in battle, Qin Shuzong didn’t rush to act, instead choosing to simply observe the situation.

Guan Yusu, on the other hand, was aware that Ye Tianling might have a hidden, lethal trump card with heaven-defying Battle Power, so she remained extremely vigilant.

Chen Fengyan, committed to his own schemes, continued to watch coldly from the sidelines.

"Noisy fools. A bunch of idiots courting death!"

Ye Tianling frowned, and killing intent instantly flared in his eyes.

With a sharp cry, he reached out and grabbed at the empty air.

CHHHH—

The Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword, which had been lying dormant between his brows, shot out as a streak of bloody light. It condensed in his hand, forming a pale golden longsword surrounded by a transparent, misty halo.

The sword was 1.68 meters long, a perfect representation of the golden ratio.

The moment Ye Tianling grasped the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword, he instantly entered a sublime state of Unity of Heaven and Man, as if he had transformed into a War God of Slaughter.

WHOOSH—

The deadly attacks from Qin Tianzhao and Xiao Zhengnan closed in on him from two different directions.

The Sword Souls they manifested indeed possessed some might; they were clearly more than just a little stronger than they had been in the past.

But in Ye Tianling’s eyes, an attack of this level was truly nothing more than child’s play.

"Die!"

Qin Tianzhao struck first. His powerful Sword Soul gathered with overwhelming force, slashing down toward Ye Tianling’s head.

The Sword Soul manifested flames of slaughter, which took the form of a phoenix and even let out a faint cry.

Burning his qi and blood, his power surged as he intended to kill Ye Tianling in a single blow before Xiao Zhengnan could land his own.

Ye Tianling’s face was devoid of expression. His Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword remained largely still until the very instant Qin Tianzhao’s killing blow arrived. Then, he simply thrust it forward.

VMMMM—

At that moment, Qin Tianzhao’s incredibly powerful attack landed on Ye Tianling’s body, causing the air to tremble slightly.

But Qin Tianzhao froze, stunned. His incredibly powerful Sword Soul Attack hadn’t even created the faintest ripple.

His strongest attack was completely ineffective against Ye Tianling!

That’s right—ineffective!

How terrifying was that?

Qin Tianzhao’s pupils suddenly contracted. But by then, Ye Tianling’s sword seemed to have pierced through the Void itself, suddenly looming large in his vision.

"Ah—save me—"

Only then, as the terrifying pressure of death suddenly washed over him, did Qin Tianzhao finally know fear.

A chill ran through his body and soul as he let out a desperate scream. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

But it was too late.

With his current strength, enhanced by the Nine Forbidden Battle Technique, how could a mere Sword Soul Realm cultivator possibly hope to match him?

Even one of his casual strikes would result in an instant kill!

The Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword thirsted for blood and had already focused its will to slaughter.

No one could have saved him from this strike!

Anyone who tried would die!

SQUELCH—

Ye Tianling’s sword shot forward, piercing straight through the center of Qin Tianzhao’s forehead.

A powerful, destructive Devouring Power erupted, and a terrifying Soul-Suppressing Power surged forth!

In the instant that Qin Tianzhao froze in a daze, his entire head simply exploded.

The upper half of Qin Tianzhao’s body hung frozen in the air for a moment before suddenly being torn to pieces.

SPLAT—

His corpse burst into a shower of blood and gore.

Qin Tianzhao was dead. Only then did Guan Yusu and the others realize what had happened.

At the same time, Xiao Zhengnan’s attack had reached Ye Tianling.

HUUUFF—

Ye Tianling exhaled a single breath, like a tornado. With a soft POP, Xiao Zhengnan’s attack was shattered by that one breath, setting off a chain of explosions.

"Die!"

Ye Tianling let out a sharp cry. A vicious glint flashed in his eyes as he manifested two streams of Slaughter Sword Intent.

SHING SHING—

The two streams of Sword Intent were so solid they seemed tangible. They crossed and converged, becoming a single streak of flowing light.

The Flowing Light manifested a Sword Soul, which in turn manifested a wisp of a Flame Sword Spirit that instantly pierced the center of Xiao Zhengnan’s forehead.

PFFT—

That wisp of the Flame Sword Spirit instantly punched through Xiao Zhengnan’s forehead and out the back of his skull.

A bloody hole appeared in the center of his forehead.

From within the hole, golden-red flames began to burn.

HISSSS—

The flames ignited and, in the space of a single breath, spread with incredible speed.

The next second, Xiao Zhengnan’s body trembled violently. The light in his eyes faded completely before the golden-red flames utterly incinerated him, leaving nothing but scattered ashes.

"Ah—Tianzhao!"

"Zhengnan!"

Qin Shuzong’s and Guan Yusu’s pupils contracted at nearly the same time. Their eyes looked ready to split with rage, their faces twisting with ferocious, palpable hatred.

"You little bastard, you deserve to die! Die! DIE!"

Qin Shuzong erupted with terrifying Sword Tribulation Power. He gathered the horrifying killing intent of his Half-step Sword Tribulation Realm, drew upon various Prohibition Talismans and his other lethal techniques, and charged at Ye Tianling in a frenzy.

"You?"

Ye Tianling sneered. As Qin Shuzong’s power exploded outward, he did indeed feel immense pressure—this was a cultivator at the Half-step Sword Tribulation Realm, after all.

And yet, Ye Tianling possessed a supreme confidence.

He and the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword shared a profound rapport, as if he could control the lives of others as he pleased.

’Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword, since you’re so thirsty for blood, go ahead and give him a fatal blow.’

Even though he was enveloped in a terrifying killing intent and locked onto by both Qin Shuzong and Guan Yusu, Ye Tianling wasn’t the least bit flustered. Instead, he was calmly communicating with the Xuanyuan Celestial Evil Sword in his mind.
