The Sword God of the Universe
Chapter 298 - 298 298 Killing Qian Bo

Chapter 298: Chapter 298: Killing Qian Bo Chapter 298: Chapter 298: Killing Qian Bo To the martial artists around, Sun Xiao’s previous words seemed like he had offered Jing Yan a way out.

Now it seemed that Jing Yan had no intention of accepting the gesture, nor did he show any signs of backing down.

From what he said, it appeared he truly intended to kill Qian Bo.

“I am a man of my word,” Jing Yan said with a smile, “I said that if I saw Qian Bo again, I would kill him, and so I will.”

“Shua!” The Skyfire Sword, emitting a red light halo, was suddenly drawn with sword light rippling, creating a red ripple in the space.

“Qian Bo, die!” As Jing Yan spoke, his figure flashed and a stroke of sword light instantly cut towards Qian Bo.

Qian Bo had not anticipated that Jing Yan would truly dare to make a move, daring to strike him in front of Sun Xiao.

When he realized that Jing Yan genuinely intended to kill him, the terrifying power contained within the red sword light had already been unleashed!

“Stop!” Sun Xiao hastily summoned his weapon, a black staff.

As he shouted, a sky full of black staff shadows enveloped the red sword light.

Sun Xiao had not anticipated Jing Yan would suddenly attack to kill Qian Bo.

He hadn’t wanted a confrontation with Jing Yan before this, thinking that as long as Jing Yan apologized, admitted his wrongs, and compensated with resources, the matter would be let go.

However, his ideas were obviously very different from Jing Yan’s.

“Boom!”

The clash of the sword light against the staff shadows produced a thunderous sound.

In the fierce collision, Sun Xiao’s figure shook slightly, and he uncontrollably stumbled backward.

Sun Xiao’s eyes filled with shock as he looked at Jing Yan.

He had estimated Jing Yan’s strength, expecting him to certainly be an extremely strong martial artist.

But now, with their exchange, he realized that Jing Yan’s strength surpassed his imagination and stood above him, not below.

How could this be?

Sun Xiao was incredibly shocked; he had trained for over ten years at the Dao Yi Academy, and Jing Yan appeared to be no more than twenty years old.

How could he possibly be stronger than him?

“Sun Xiao, you can’t stop me!” Jing Yan said coldly with a sneer.

“Jing Yan, stop it right now!

You absolutely must not make a grave mistake.

You can’t kill Qian Bo.

Qian Bo’s older brother is…” Before Sun Xiao’s body could steady itself, he saw Jing Yan already strike at Qian Bo again, shouting in alarm.

“No!

Ah…” Qian Bo screamed miserably.

Before Sun Xiao finished speaking, the red sword light had already shattered Qian Bo’s feeble defense, slicing his head off cleanly.

A head rolled over ten meters across the ground before coming to a stop.

Silence fell on the entire area!

Pairs of eyes, filled with horror, watched the scene.

High-level student Qian Bo, was he just killed like that?

And in front of Sun Xiao, ranked eighth on the War God List?

Sun Xiao couldn’t prevent Jing Yan from killing Qian Bo?

Sun Xiao’s eyes widened, his hands tightly grasping the black staff.

“Jing Yan, you…” Sun Xiao’s eyes reddened slightly.

He indeed disliked Qian Bo, but he had to ensure Qian Bo’s safety.

Now, with Qian Bo dead in front of him, how would he explain it to Qian Bo’s older brother, Qian Zhen?

Qian Zhen would certainly not let this go easily!

“Sun Xiao, I already gave Qian Bo a chance.

This is his own doing, you can’t blame me,” Jing Yan said with a smile, “If you want revenge for Qian Bo, that’s fine.

I’ll stand right here, and you can make your move.”

Jing Yan, holding the Skyfire Sword, looked at Sun Xiao.

“You have no idea what you’ve done.”

“Your strength may be above mine, I indeed cannot kill you.

But someone can.

Jing Yan, you will regret this.

You really shouldn’t have killed Qian Bo.

Even if he was wrong, even if you really wanted to kill Qian Bo, you should not have done it.

You’ve made a huge mistake, and you can’t imagine the serious consequences that killing Qian Bo will bring upon you – consequences you cannot bear,” Sun Xiao exhaled deeply.

He had no intention of continuing to fight with Jing Yan because he was very aware that he simply could not kill Jing Yan.

“Oh?” A hint of amusement crept onto Jing Yan’s lips.

Judging from Sun Xiao’s words, Qian Bo’s identity was probably much more complex than he had understood.

Behind Qian Bo, there likely stood someone even more powerful.

However, Jing Yan had no regrets about killing Qian Bo.

People like Qian Bo deserved to die!

After Sun Xiao said his piece, he quickly left with Qian Bo’s body, rushing out of Setting Sun Valley.

“All of you, disperse!” Jing Yan’s gaze swept across the crowd.

The martial artists gathered had already numbered in the hundreds.

They all held their breath, staring at Jing Yan intently.

Upon hearing Jing Yan’s order, they quickly dispersed, their movements swift.

In a few breaths of time, they had left the depths of Setting Sun Valley.

The ranking on the War God List was about to change.

Even a fool could see that Jing Yan’s strength was likely above Sun Xiao’s.

Since Sun Xiao was ranked eighth on the War God List, then Jing Yan’s ranking would replace Sun Xiao at eighth.

A newcomer ascending directly onto the War God List was simply unfathomable and outrageous.

In the history of the Dao Yi Academy, there appeared to be no precedent.

Perhaps there had been, but these people had not heard of it – at least not in the last hundred years.

“Jing Yan, what do we do now?

Senior Brother Sun Xiao is from the Criminal Punishment Hall.

He will definitely go there now and bring people to arrest you,” Zhang Min said anxiously.

Within the Dao Yi Academy, it was forbidden for students to kill each other.

If students wished to fight, they had to do so within the War God Hall, which was specifically for students to exchange and learn from one another.

If students had deep grudges, they could settle them in the War God Hall.

Killing or injuring an opponent within the War God Hall was permitted.

But this was Setting Sun Valley, and Jing Yan’s killing of Qian Bo clearly violated the rules of the Dao Yi Academy.

It was completely justified for Sun Xiao to go to the Criminal Punishment Hall to have people arrest Jing Yan.

“Senior sister, you don’t need to worry about me.

The soldiers will block, and the water will cover,” Jing Yan said with a smile, waving his hand, “If you don’t hurry into the High-level Cultivation Pool, all those points will be wasted!”

“Ah~” Only then did Zhang Min remember that the High-level Cultivation Pool was still operational.

Some precious points had indeed been wasted in this bit of time.

“Senior sister, you better go in and cultivate.

I have other things to deal with, I need to leave the Dao Yi Academy first,” Jing Yan took a deep breath and said.

“Right, it’s good for you to leave the Dao Yi Academy to hide for a while.

And you’d better leave Lanqu County City too,” Zhang Min thought Jing Yan meant to run away.

Hearing Zhang Min’s words, Jing Yan just smiled, but did not further explain.

He was not leaving the Dao Yi Academy to flee, but to join the Alchemist Association.
