Chapter 1586: Chapter 1583: Trapped in One’s Own Scheme! (5 More)

After Lin Bai killed the Hantian Demon Saint, his gaze fell upon Yue Zheng and Yue Qing.

At this moment, Yue Qing was besieged by Yue Zheng and his son. Even holding the Survival Sword, she found it extremely difficult to cope, her white robes were stained with blood, her face was pale, and she was in a sorry state!

"Yue Qing, meet your death!"

Yue Zheng and Yue Hua, father and son, attacked together, their fierce power pouncing on Yue Qing like wolves and tigers.

Yue Qing, with a pallid complexion and a look of despair in her eyes, gritted her teeth and gripped the Survival Sword, preparing to use all her might to resist!

Just at this moment!

A shadow of a person suddenly appeared in front of Yue Qing; after appearing, with a casual flick of his sword, he unleashed a torrential sword light, sweeping away and directly repelling the attacking Yue Zheng and his son a thousand meters away!

Rescued by this sudden intervention, Yue Qing showed an expression of continuous surprise!

"You really ought to practice your sword skill more. I’ve said before, even though you are at the Second Level of the Yangshen Realm, for a sword cultivator within the same realm to be driven to such a sorry state, it truly has been eye-opening for me!"

After repelling Yue Zheng and his son with a single sword strike, the shadow turned around and said to Yue Qing coldly.

Who could this person be, if not Lin Bai?

Upon hearing Lin Bai’s words, Yue Qing suddenly showed a hint of embarrassment on her face, but she knew that Lin Bai was right; within the same realm, the strength of a sword cultivator far exceeds that of other cultivators.

And now, Yue Qing was put in a situation where she was unable to fight back at all by Yue Zheng, indeed losing the face of sword cultivators!

Previously, when Lin Bai was in Wuji Mountain Manor, he had said that Yue Qing’s swordsmanship was too weak, and then Lin Bai thought that since Li Zong was a disciple of the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, his swordsmanship was extremely powerful, and it was only natural for Yue Qing to be no match.

But now, even if Yue Zheng and Yue Hua joined forces, realistically speaking, only Yue Zheng could pose a threat to Yue Qing, yet she was still in such a pitiful state.

Lin Bai knew then that it wasn’t Li Zong who was too strong, but rather that Yue Qing was indeed too weak in her sword art and cultivation!

"Stand aside and watch carefully, today I will show you what true sword art is!" Lin Bai said to Yue Qing with a cold voice, and immediately walked towards Yue Zheng and Yue Hua!

Seeing Lin Bai intervene and having witnessed the death of the Hantian Demon Saint at the hands of Lin Bai, Yue Zheng and Yue Hua’s pupils showed their shock.

"Dad, what do we do?" Yue Hua cried out in horror.

"Who would have thought that the Hantian Demon Saint could be killed by him!" Yue Zheng said in disbelief, as he had thought that Hantian Demon Saint would be able to kill Dongfang Bai, and that’s why he dared to severely confront Yue Qing.

Now that Lin Bai has even killed the Hantian Demon Saint, the two of them are probably no match for Lin Bai together!

"Young Sword Master Dongfang! Must you really be in opposition to us father and son?" Yue Zheng said, trembling inwardly as he saw Lin Bai approaching step by step, witnessing the coldness and sharpness on Lin Bai’s face.

"You are mistaken, it’s not that I want to oppose you, but it’s you who are courting death!"

"I have never considered the two of you my opponents!"

Lin Bai spoke coldly.

Yue Hua was shaken to the core by the icy murderous aura on Lin Bai’s face, trembling all over as he clutched at Yue Zheng’s sleeve and said: "Dad, what do we do? I don’t want to die, I really don’t want to die."

Yue Zheng, fuming with anger, looked up and said coldly, "I am the Vice Chairman of the Silver Moon Commerce Association; if I die, although you may be safe, Yue Qing will definitely be subject to the wrath of the upper echelons of the Silver Moon Commerce Association!"

"Junior Sword Venerate, why don’t we make peace? I, Yue Zheng, guarantee that from now on, I will fully support Yue Qing and never falter!"

"Hmph!" Lin Bai snorted coldly: "Vice Chairman Yue Zheng, didn’t you just say that this place is the West City of Haizhen City, a chaotic realm, where even if you two die here, Qing’er could still say that you died in a fierce battle with the Black Gold Gang upon her return!"

"This has nothing to do with me or Qing’er!"

Lin Bai said with a cold smile.

Upon hearing Lin Bai’s words, Yue Zheng’s face darkened immediately, the situation that was originally meant to bury Lin Bai and Yue Qing had now reversed, turning into the burial ground for Yue Zheng, his son, and the Hantian Demon Saint!

Indeed, this was a case of one being hoisted by their own petard!

"Father..." Yue Hua, seeing Lin Bai getting closer, cried out in urgency.

"Yue Hua, run! Dad will hold him off for you. Remember, after leaving Haizhen City, cultivate well. Someday, make your way to Heaven-reaching Sword Sect and seek revenge for me!" Yue Zheng gritted his teeth, with bloodshot eyes, pushed Yue Hua out.

"Dad, no, Dad..."

Yue Hua was sent flying a thousand meters away by Yue Zheng’s palm; at the same time, Yue Zheng rushed towards Lin Bai with a face full of fierce intent.

"Dongfang Bai, I’m going all out against you!"

Yue Zheng roared furiously, gathering all his spiritual power, conjuring a destructive force in his hand capable of annihilating heaven and earth as he attacked!

"Yue Hua thinks he can escape? Hmph, ridiculous. Flying Swords, go." Lin Bai’s gaze swept over Yue Hua, who was blasted a thousand meters away by Yue Zheng, and with a movement of his flying swords, he immediately caught up to Yue Hua!

Yue Hua, a kilometer away, watched Yue Zheng in terror, and before he could react, he felt an icy chill emanating from the void, enveloping him completely.

"Don’t..."

"Father, save me!"

Yue Hua cried out in horror.

Yue Zheng turned his head abruptly, only to see a flash of golden light streaking through Yue Hua’s neck like thunderbolt, followed by Yue Hua’s head flying up into the air...

"No! My son!" Yue Zheng screamed in agony.

"Dongfang Bai!"

Yue Zheng turned back, glaring at Lin Bai with a cannibalistic look.

Lin Bai said coldly, "Yue Zheng, if you had simply stayed content with your position as vice-chairman of the Silver Moon Commerce Association, you and your son could have enjoyed endless glory and wealth under the association’s protection, reaping both fame and fortune. Yet you let greed cloud your judgment, poisoning Yue Qing’s father and even harboring the delusion of killing Yue Qing!"

"You stop at nothing to achieve your goals!"

"Pushing both you and your son into the bottomless abyss, that is the true entrapment of your own making!"

Lin Bai stared coldly at Yue Zheng as he spoke.

"Shut up!" Yue Zheng bellowed, unleashing all his power without reservation, striking down at Lin Bai with a terrifyingly gigantic palm that blotted out the sky.

In his rage, Yue Zheng’s palm strike reached the power of the Third Level of the Yangshen Realm!

Lin Bai’s eyes flickered, and the Demonic Sword burst forth with soaring might. With a furious slash, he shattered Yue Zheng’s giant palm imprint and effortlessly cut down Yue Zheng with his sword!

Yue Zheng fell to the ground, his eyes still full of anger, but the life in him slowly faded away.

After killing Yue Zheng and Yue Hua, Lin Bai turned to look at Yue Qing and said indifferently, "This is the true Sword Art!"

Yue Qing’s pupils dilated as she stared at Lin Bai, her breathing rapid and her chest heaving violently. Just moments ago, Yue Qing was in utter despair, but with Lin Bai’s intervention, his thunderous actions had killed Yue Zheng and his son, turning the tables completely!

The impact of this scene was indeed something Yue Qing would never forget for the rest of her life.

"Go back and practice your sword skills well," Lin Bai put away the Demonic Sword.

Meanwhile, outside the Black Gold Gang, Tian Kun had been ordered to kill all the warriors brought by Yue Qing. Having just finished the task, Tian Kun intended to assist Yue Zheng and his son, but as soon as he stepped through the gates of the Black Gold Gang, he saw Yue Zheng, breathless, lying on the ground.

Tian Kun, shocked and horrified, said, "Vice-chairman Yue Zheng is... dead..."

Lin Bai also saw Tian Kun at this moment, as well as the Death Warriors Yue Zheng had arranged outside Black Gold Gang to hunt down the warriors brought by Yue Qing, and he sneered, "Good timing for you all to show up. Let’s kill you together!"

"Flying Swords!"

Lin Bai let out a light shout, and with a turn of his flying swords, they displayed their sharpness, rushing toward Tian Kun.

Tian Kun’s pupils widened as he saw the flying sword approach, and before he could mount any defense, the flying sword pierced straight through his heart.

The flying sword didn’t stop there; after killing Tian Kun, it transformed into a golden light that continually swept past the chests of the warriors outside the gate.

Ahhhh—

Piercing screams came from outside, as more than a hundred warriors at the Perfect Yin Saint Realm were slain by the flying sword in the blink of an eye!

Yue Qing, witnessing this scene, was even more dumbfounded...

"That flying sword has such terrifying power..." Yue Qing’s eyes were glued to the flying sword, watching it until it killed everyone and then disappeared into Lin Bai’s palm.

Lin Bai surveyed his surroundings, the ground littered with corpses, blood flowing like rivers, and said faintly, "Let’s go, back to the Silver Moon Commerce Association. Now that Yue Zheng is dead, there is nothing left in the association to impede you."

"As for the matters of Haizhen City, I have almost taken care of them. Once the Top Martial Spirit Weapon Ranking is released tomorrow, I shall return to the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect!"
