Chapter 546: Chapter 541: Trouble Comes Knocking

Hearing such unrestrained laughter, Ye Xuan couldn’t help but frown. It seemed these people were far from friendly. No wonder Lin Wan, a Core Disciple, lived in such a place; she must have been bullied by these people quite often.

"You had better speak with some respect. You can insult me all you want, but Ye Xuan is now disabled. As a Martial Artist, there is no greater pain than this. And yet you continue to throw your insults; are you even human? Do you deserve to be called a disciple of Dragon Sword Island?"

Lin Wan bit her lip and spoke sternly.

"Oh, look at you, the ugly woman speaking so much when you can hardly protect yourself. We are not worthy of being disciples of Dragon Sword Island?"

A disciple of Dragon Sword Island stepped forward, a cold sneer playing on their lips. "I’ll show you right now who is not worthy of this status."

Seeing this unfold, the disciples of Dragon Sword Island behind showed not the slightest intention of stopping the altercation, instead, they all displayed looks of anticipation for the coming spectacle.

"This does not bode well."

Ye Xuan slightly furrowed his brow. The Dragon Sword Island disciple was evidently a First Grade Martial Venerate in terms of cultivation, which undoubtedly put Lin Wan at a significant disadvantage in terms of cultivation.

"Lin Wan, beg for mercy now, and I might just spare you."

The disciple of Dragon Sword Island sneered, filled with contempt. He felt that dirtying his hands on such an ugly woman would be beneath him.

"I do not wish to fight you, but to beg you for mercy? In your dreams!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Wan’s expression darkened, clearly having no intentions of yielding.

"Heh, then don’t blame me for being ruthless."

A chill flashed in the eyes of the Dragon Sword Island disciple, who then swiftly drew the treasured sword at his waist and dashed forward.

Clang!

Lin Wan’s sword was equally quick, clashing with the other, sparking a dazzling array of sparks.

Clash! Clang! Clatter!

The two swords danced rapidly, colliding in mid-air and creating a fierce shower of sparks.

"Heavenly Dao Nine Songs!"

After exchanging a few moves, the Dragon Sword Island disciple suddenly bellowed and rapidly unleashed nine consecutive sword strikes, merging together into an impressive fluctuation of energy.

"Dragon Sword Form!"

Lin Wan bent her body, her Sword Qi transforming into a dragon shape before surging forward.

Boom!

After the collision of their moves, Lin Wan was the first to be sent flying backward, spitting out a mouthful of blood and crashing heavily to the ground next to Ye Xuan.

"Dragon Sword Form is one of Dragon Sword Island’s top-tier swordsmanship techniques, and it’s simply wasted in the hands of this individual."

Seeing this, the disdain on the face of the Dragon Sword Island disciple grew even more intense. Trash was trash and stood no chance against him.

"What a pity—once the supreme talent of Dragon Sword Island has now turned into such a pathetic loser."

The woman in red glanced at Lin Wan, her tone indifferent, with not a trace of sympathy in her words.

"Yes, if it wasn’t for Senior Sister Wu Qianqian reminding me, I would have almost forgotten that I used to address you as ’Senior Sister Lin Wan.’ Of course, back when you were in your prime, I suppose we didn’t even exist in your eyes, did we? Did you ever imagine that you would see a day like this? Not only has your cultivation been severely damaged, but your appearance has also been ruined. Truly tragic. If I were you, I would have killed myself long ago," said the Dragon Sword Island disciple with a face full of mockery.

"Don’t say that; even ants cherish their lives, let alone humans?"

The woman in red lifted her eyelids and swept her gaze around the interior of the room before it landed on Ye Xuan. A wave of disgust and disdain immediately surfaced in her beautiful eyes, "You guys, throw this man of unknown origin out. He must have offended some formidable enemy to be injured like this. Such a person should not be saved."

"As you command."

Several Dragon Sword Island disciples immediately stepped forward.

"Stop! Don’t touch him!"

Lin Wan propped herself up and shouted sternly at the people in front of her.

"Heh, you can’t even protect yourself, yet you dare meddle in others’ affairs? It seems the lesson just now wasn’t enough..."

The disciple from Dragon Sword Island who had injured Lin Wan just before his expression darkened, then he walked toward Lin Wan, clearly intending to strike her again.

"What kind of skill is it to bully a weak woman? It turns out that the core disciples of the Fifth Grade Sect, Dragon Sword Island, are all a bunch of petty characters."

At that moment, a faint voice drifted over, causing the Dragon Sword Island disciple’s face to darken slightly. Even the red-clothed woman and the others turned their gazes toward Ye Xuan as if by an unspoken agreement.

"Who?"

The disciple from Dragon Sword Island first looked around, thinking someone was hiding in the shadows. It was only after a moment that he turned his gaze to Ye Xuan, with a surge of coldness flashing in his eyes.

"A cripple with such audacity? Indeed, an ugly woman suits a worthless man. You, this piece of trash, to risk your life for an ugly woman, I’ll fulfill your wish right now."

The man sneered coldly, and then, suddenly changing direction, he lunged at Ye Xuan with a cruel expression on his face.

"This kid, it seems someone’s going to get killed."

The person beside the red-clothed woman chuckled.

To which the red-clothed woman didn’t respond; to her, whether an insignificant person like Ye Xuan lived or died didn’t matter in the slightest.

"This is bad."

Lin Wan’s face suddenly turned pale. She was well aware of Ye Xuan’s current state; there was practically no True Yuan in his body, making him no different from an ordinary person at that moment. If he were to take a hit from the opponent now, his death was certain.

Why did this guy have to say such reckless words? Bringing disaster upon himself.

"Die, trash!"

A twisted killing intent flashed through the disciple’s eyes, and his hand was already close to Ye Xuan’s head, clearly intending to strike lethally and kill Ye Xuan with one move.

Just as everyone thought that Ye Xuan was doomed, suddenly, an invisible fluctuation burst forth and, with the swiftness of lightning, struck the Dragon Sword Island disciple, sending him flying in the blink of an eye.

Thud!

Spurting blood from his mouth, the disciple flew out in an embarrassing state, his face full of disbelief.

"What?"

The red-clothed woman and the others were likewise shocked, looking incredulously at the figure hurtling backward.

"That was just now... soul power!"

In just an instant, the red-clothed woman exclaimed. The force just now, almost intangible, had instantly sent a Dragon Sword Island disciple with the cultivation of a First Grade Martial Venerate flying. This soul power was terrifyingly powerful, likely at least at the Mid Heavenly Realm level.

"This..."

Lin Wan was also incredulous. How could such a strong soul force appear suddenly at this time? Could it be...

She then looked at Ye Xuan with some astonishment, only to see his face remained calm, without the slightest hint of surprise.
