127: Chapter 127: One Sword Annihilation!
“Ah, I guess I’ll have to step in.”
Lin Bai sighed lightly.
He strode past Bai Zhiyuan, stood before Zeng Liang, and calmly said, “I can give you a chance.
Kill yourself; I’ll leave you a whole corpse.”
Zeng Liang burst into crazed laughter, “Hahaha!
A warrior at the ninth level of the Xuanwu Realm, where did you get such arrogance to speak to me like that!
Fine, today, I’ll kill you first.
Let me see how sharp my new treasure sword is.”
Zeng Liang scoffed ridicule filled laugh as he stared scornfully at Lin Bai.
“What are you doing, move!” Bai Zhiyuan was driven to the brink of exploding by Lin Bai, thinking that she herself as a warrior from the First Level of the Earth Martial Realm couldn’t beat Zeng Liang, and how a warrior from the Ninth Level of Xuanwu Realm like Lin Bai could defeat Zeng Liang?
Wasn’t he asking for death?
“Friend Lin Bai, don’t be reckless,” alerted the Lord of White Sheep City.
Lin Bai was a warrior from the Spirit Sword Sect.
If he died in White Sheep City, there might be an investigation by the Spirit Sword Sect, and he would have a hard time explaining it.
“Thinking of leaving?
Zeng Liang laughed coldly in scorn, brandishing Bai Zhiyuan’s treasure sword and lunged it at Lin Bai’s face.
The sword light came with infinite chill, the full power of a fourth-grade spiritual weapon exploded, and the swift as lightning strike reached Lin Bai’s face in a blink of an eye!
“Idiot, dodge!” Bai Zhiyuan was furious, seeing that Lin Bai was about to die under her treasure sword, she tried her best to push Lin Bai away!
Yet, no matter how hard Bai Zhiyuan pushed, she couldn’t move Lin Bai’s figure.
Lin Bai’s figure stood in front of her, his feet rooted to the ground like they were planted there.
Right at the moment when the rapid as storm Chiba attack was upon Lin Bai, he held out two fingers and easily caught the treasure sword.
The sword tip stopped three inches away from Lin Bai’s face.
“How is this possible?”
Bai Zhiyuan was utterly horrified, having already imagined the scene where Lin Bai’s head was pierced by the sword.
But how could she ever expect that Lin Bai would have no fear facing an attack from Zeng Liang, a second-level Earth Martial Realm warrior with a fourth-grade spiritual weapon?
Instead, he would catch the attack easily.
“How is that possible, you’re just a warrior from the Ninth Xuanwu Realm yet you stopped my sword!”
Zeng Liang’s scornful laughing expression turned into shock.
“You’re really stubborn!
I gave you a chance to kill yourself, but you didn’t value it.”
“Very well, then let me do it.”
“When you arrive in the Underworld Ghost Mansion and Yama asks who killed you, tell him that your killer is Lin Bai!”
Lin Bai held the treasure sword and spoke coldly.
A clear sound of a sharp sword being unsheathed and the dazzling sword light flickered past in front of Bai Zhiyuan, Zeng Liang and the Lord of White Sheep City.
Then a blood-spattering sound followed.
Zeng Liang felt a trace of deathly fear, let go of the treasure sword hurriedly and retreated quickly using his footwork!
Just as he was retreating, Lin Bai’s sword fell, severing the arm holding the treasure sword on the spot!
Lin Bai handed the treasure sword to Bai Zhiyuan.
The Treasure Sword still clutched tightly in the severed arm of Zeng Liang.
Bai Zhiyuan stared at Lin Bai, dumbfounded: “Good heavens, how could you be this powerful!”
The Lord of White Sheep City was equally shocked.
A warrior of the Xuanwu Realm, Ninth Level, cutting off the arm of a warrior from the Second Level of the Earth Martial Realm with a single strike.
Who would believe it if he told them?
This was something that should have been impossible.
My hand!” Zeng Liang, clutching at his severely bleeding stump, let out a blood-curdling scream.
“You piece of trash, I will make sure you die a horrible death!”
Zeng Liang cursed at Lin Bai venomously.
At that moment, Lin Bai had no intention of wasting words on Zeng Liang.
A flash of Waning Shadow, and Lin Bai charged at Zeng Liang.
“Your sword, it can’t even touch me, you are trash!
You think you can match me?
You are not even worthy!” Zeng Liang saw Lin Bai’s incoming strike, and taunted him with mocking laughter.
“Heh, you think your attempts at provocation would work?
You might be able to fool someone as naive as Bai Zhiyuan, not me, though.”
Lin Bai sneered, unfazed by Zeng Liang’s words.
His sword skill shifted, the sword light blossoming like a lotus as he stormed towards Zeng Liang.
Zeng Liang’s face turned pale with fright.
The Sword Qi coming from all directions, enclosing him in a net of swords, left him with no room to dodge.
“Please don’t kill me, spare me master, spare me…”
Hearing Zeng Liang’s plea for mercy, Lin Bai dismissed him with contempt.
His Sword Qi directly shredded Zeng’s flesh into pieces, bloody chunks splattering everywhere.
It was a gruesome scene.
Having sheathed his sword, Lin Bai turned around to see Bai Zhiyuan and the Lord of White Sheep City, their faces reflected utter astonishment.
Their mouths agape wide enough to fit an egg, both were truly astounded.
Do I have something on my face?
Why are you both looking at me like that?” Lin Bai asked curiously.
The Lord of White Sheep City snapped out of his stupor, excitably blurting: “Young friend Lin Bai is truly a worthy disciple of the Spirit Sword Sect.
He killed Zeng Liang in just two moves, amazing, absolutely amazing!”
For me killing him, it was as easy as killing a swine or a dog.” Lin Bai replied nonchalantly.
“How are you so powerful!” Bai Zhiyuan’s small face was filled with astonishment.
“Miss Bai, as I have said before, if you want to defeat me, you must train for a few more years.” Lin Bai said, laughing lightly.
Bai Zhiyuan was filled with shame.
Thinking back to the words spoken at the City Lord’s Mansion when she had challenged Lin Bai, she found it somewhat amusing now.
“Yes, if Lin Bai wanted to kill me, I am afraid one strike would be all it would take.” Bai Zhiyuan laughed at herself internally.
“Lin Bai, I apologize for my previous actions, please do not hold it against me.”
Bai Zhiyuan bowed respectfully towards Lin Bai, apologizing sincerely.
Seeing the sincere apology from Bai Zhiyuan, who was undeniably beautiful, Lin Bai was not inclined to hold on to this any longer, after all, there was no deep hatred between them.
“There’s no need, I am not a petty person.
Besides, we never reached the point where we had to resort to violence.”
Lin Bai replied, shaking his head in amusement.
“Now that the task is completed, Lord of the White Sheep City, can you give me the token?”
Lin Bai turned to the Lord of White Sheep city and smiled.
“Patience, young friend Lin Bai.
Let me settle things here in Zeng Liang’s residence first.
Once we are back in White Sheep City, I will give it to you.” The Lord of White Sheep City was worried about any leftover goons Zeng Liang might have and thus, did not rush to give the task token to Lin Bai.
Understanding the Lord’s concerns, Lin Bai joined him in sweeping through Zeng Liang’s residence.
In the process, Lin Bai even rescued over a hundred young girls from within Zeng Liang’s residence.
