Chapter 462: Chapter 459 Sword Intent Becomes a Bow

Due to Chu Yang’s self-destruction, the Vampire Bat Demon King also died from self-destruction, resulting in both of them perishing together. Suddenly, the formerly endangered Ye Xuan found safety amidst danger.

But although Chu Yang and the Vampire Bat Demon King were both dead, the matter was not yet completely resolved.

There were still a few loose ends.

Ye Xuan turned his attention to the several Inner Sect Disciples Chu Yang had brought with him. Nearly all of these Inner Sect Disciples were members of the Gentleman Sect.

"Liu Xuan brother, we never thought of harming you. Please show us your magnanimity and let us go. We won’t reveal a word of today’s events."

"That’s right, it was all Chu Yang’s planning. It was he who wanted to kill you previously. Now that the chief culprit has been punished, we should turn our weapons into jade and silk. After all, we are all disciples of the Xuantian Sect."

"Yes, we were all forced by Chu Yang, acting against our will."

While groveling to Ye Xuan, those Gentleman Sect Inner Sect Disciples were slowly retreating, looking for an opportunity to escape from there.

They had already realized that Ye Xuan surely wouldn’t let them go easily.

"Is that so? If that were true, you should be coming forward to repent sincerely, not thinking of running away."

Ye Xuan would not believe their words. The faces of these few people a moment ago were clear to him—obviously, they were all aiding a tyrant. If he, in a moment of benevolence, let these people go, they would surely report back to the top experts of the Gentleman Sect once they returned to the Xuantian Sect.

At that time, neither the people of the Gentleman Sect nor the Martial Arts family behind Chu Yang would let him off the hook.

To nip in the bud, especially with several treacherous people.

"Huang Bo, He Li! Block them!"

Ye Xuan shouted out to Huang Bo and the others. Alone, in his current state, it would be very difficult to hold all these people down. It would take the three of them to act together to have any assurance of completely dealing with these loose ends.

"Attack!"

This time, Huang Bo and the others did not hesitate. They were very clear that if today’s matter were to spread, Ye Xuan would certainly die, but they themselves would undoubtedly also be doomed. Now they acutely understood their predicament. Their fates were linked with Ye Xuan’s—either they would share in glory or share in loss, making it impossible for them to remain uninvolved and protect themselves.

These disciples of the Gentleman Sect must be completely eradicated.

"Scoundrels, are you rebelling against us? This Liu Xuan has already become a bloodthirsty demon. Stop immediately and join us in executing this demon!"

Seeing that Ye Xuan was resolute in his intent to kill them, the Gentleman Sect disciples also gave up hope. They suddenly scattered in different directions and fled at high speed.

"Silence!"

Ye Xuan forcefully stimulated his remaining True Qi, his dragon wings accelerating and doubling his speed.

In no time, Ye Xuan caught up with one of them, and with a swing of his sword, he beheaded him.

Huang Bo and the others also managed to block and kill another.

But the last one, taking advantage of the time bought by the other two, had already run several miles away, barely visible.

"Damn it."

Huang Bo and the others had ashen faces. If the person who escaped went back to send a warning, all four of them would be dead without a place to bury their bodies.

However, when they stealthily glanced at Ye Xuan, the latter remained very calm, with an air of composure and serenity.

In fact, Ye Xuan had pushed his Heavenly Realm soul power to the limit. Within a ten-mile radius, everything was within the range of his perception.

The Gentlemen Sect disciple who thought he could escape would not be able to elude Ye Xuan’s soul sensing as long as he hadn’t escaped the ten-mile range.

Ye Xuan’s gaze suddenly locked onto a direction in the northwest, and then, an extremely sharp aura emanated from him. The invisible Sword Intent gathered together, and in the transformation of Ye Xuan’s palms, it actually took the shape of a curved bow.

"Sword Intent becomes a bow!"

Seeing this, Huang Bo and the others were also greatly shocked. Sword Intent, unlike sword momentum, although both intangible, reflected the soul of a swordsman and were not possessed by everyone. Those who could control the Sword Intent were top-level swordsmen, and the extent to which they could wield it varied greatly.

The more powerful the swordsman, the more adept they were at utilizing Sword Intent.

Using Sword Intent to form a bow was an extremely sophisticated technique. Sword Intent could take the form of a bow or it could transform into other shapes. Of course, the process was not so simple. For example, to form a bow from Sword Intent, a martial artist must not only be very skilled in the Sword Dao but must also be proficient in archery. Without the latter expertise, the Sword Intent simply couldn’t be condensed successfully.

Under the slightly astonished gazes of the three men, Ye Xuan had already formed an invisible great bow with his Sword Intent, then he placed the Dragon Abyss Ancient Sword into the bowstring and fiercely pulled it to a full crescent.

Swoosh!

It took only a second to accumulate power, and the Dragon Abyss Ancient Sword shot out like a shooting star, disappearing into the distant horizon.

Nearly ten miles away, the Inner Sect Disciple with a look of great joy was running at full speed. However, he suddenly felt a strong sharpness locking onto him from behind. He immediately turned to look back, only to see a streak of sword light, like an immortal descending from the heavens, falling straight towards him without deviation.

"No!"

He wanted to dodge, but under such oppressive Sword Intent, he found himself unable to move. He could only watch with eyes wide open as the sword light struck him, splitting his body into two.

"He’s dealt with."

In the midst of the barren forest, Ye Xuan took a deep breath. The Sword Intent bow in his hands slowly dissipated, and then he suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale as paper, looking like he might faint at any moment.

The move he had previously unleashed, Heavenly Dragon Descent, had nearly exhausted Ye Xuan. Afterwards, he had been affected by Chu Yang’s self-destruction, suffering no light injuries. The final act of forming the Sword Intent into a bow was completely a matter of overexerting himself. Fortunately, the last sword did not deviate; otherwise, he really wouldn’t have had the strength to chase after the man.

In the moment when the matter was resolved, he relaxed his mind, almost passing out right then and there.

"Junior Brother Ye Xuan, are you alright?"

Huang Bo and the others quickly supported Ye Xuan, looking at him with a completely different gaze from before, one that carried a hint of respect. They knew that Ye Xuan’s strength was definitely at the level of an elite Inner Sect Disciple, and the only person who had reached the Martial Sect Master Realm and become an elite Inner Sect Disciple was Ye Xuan himself.

Having guessed his true identity, Ye Xuan didn’t say much. He simply looked at the three with an indifferent gaze, "We must act as though today’s events never happened, and not a single word should be leaked."

"Don’t worry, we aren’t keen on shortening our own lives."

Huang Bo and the others nodded their heads. Even if Ye Xuan hadn’t spoken, they wouldn’t have disclosed anything. Today they had killed Chu Yang and his Gentlemen Sect cohorts, which in the eyes of the Gentlemen Sect was undoubtedly a capital offense. Once they let it slip, there would be no chance for survival.
