Lin Bai killed Qiao Quan with a single sword strike, provoking a wave of shocked cries from the central square outside.
The Sect Master and Grand Elder were especially ecstatic, secretly cheering in their hearts!
Qiao Quan had already declared his submission to the Ding Family. Just as the Grand Elder had told Lin Bai earlier, even if Ding Xian-lai died, Qiao Quan and the others would never change their allegiance. They would continue serving Old Ancestor Ding as before, even going to the Eastern Continent to search for heavenly treasures to treat his injuries, waiting only for Old Ancestor Ding to recover and reward them handsomely!
Therefore, when the Sect Master and Grand Elder saw Qiao Quan die, they were not angry at all. Instead, their hearts were filled with cheers!
"Qiao Quan was actually killed! One of the Profound Heaven Ten Elites has fallen."
"My heavens, could Lin Bai really be this year's dark horse?"
"That was Qiao Quan! The number-one swordsman among the younger generation of the Profound Heaven Sect!"
"He actually died just like that?"
Many martial artists cried out in shock.
Within the Battlefield Secret Realm, it was only after Qiao Quan had been dead for quite some time that Yuan Cheng and the others came to their senses. They cried out in succession, "Junior Brother Qiao Quan... Junior Brother Qiao Quan..."
"Senior Brother Qiao Quan..."
"Senior Brother Qiao Quan is dead!"
Li Song and Dai Sen spoke in utter astonishment.
Yuan Cheng found it even harder to believe.
Only Yi Guangyuan finally understood at that moment. The man before him definitely had not missed just now. If he had wanted to kill Yi Guangyuan, that previous sword strike would have been enough.
Dai Sen and Li Song turned toward Lin Bai, their eyes overflowing
