"Lin Ye! Take this!" Yan immediately seized the opportunity as a ring rose beneath his feet.
He had timed it perfectly, launching his attack just as Hu Liena and Xie Yue were sent flying, leaving almost no time to dodge. "First Soul Skill, Hell Magma Rush!!"
"Tricks."
Lin Ye did not even bother dodging and simply stood where he was.
Yan was overjoyed at the sight. "You're courting death! You actually dared not dodge my First Soul Skill? Lin Ye, you're finished! Hahaha!"
Magma flames instantly erupted beneath Lin Ye's feet, completely engulfing him.
"Is that so?"
"It's merely magma fire, yet you dare flaunt it before my ultimate fire!" Lin Ye's icy voice rang out from within the surging magma flames. "Get lost!"
The word "get lost" rang out.
The next moment, the magma flames instantly scattered.
Lin Ye emerged unscathed, sacred ultimate flames burning over his body.
"How could this happen? Why didn't my magma flames cause him even the slightest injury?!" Yan suffered a crushing blow, his mentality on the verge of collapse.
"Because your flames are nothing but a little brother before mine!"
"Impossible! My martial soul, the Flame Lord, is an exceptionally powerful existence among fire attributes. Even if your fire attribute is stronger than mine, it can't possibly suppress mine so completely!"
"Heh, if you don't believe it, try again." Lin Ye shrugged.
Over this period of time, he had already confirmed it.
The light attribute and fire attribute attached to the Angel Holy Sword were both ultimate attributes.
Before ultimate attributes, all Soul Masters with the same attribute would be absolutely suppressed.
Unless the opponent's Soul Power far exceeded his own, attacks of the same attribute would no longer be able to harm Lin Ye.
"I refuse to believe it!"
"Hell Magma Rush!"
Bang!
Magma flames surged up once more.
Lin Ye casually waved his hand, and the magma flames scattered again. He remained completely unharmed.
"How could this happen? How could this happen..." Yan's mentality completely shattered. His pride and heart as a genius suffered an enormous blow at that moment.
Possessing flames of immense intensity had always been Yan's greatest source of pride.
But now, the flame intensity he was proudest of had been ruthlessly trampled beneath Lin Ye's feet. Yan completely lost his composure and crazily threw a punch at Lin Ye. "Damn it! I'll cripple you!!"
"Fine! Then don't blame me for being ruthless too!"
A flash of ruthlessness crossed Lin Ye's face as well.
If others wanted to be ruthless toward him, then he certainly would not show mercy either!
"Sun True Fire!"
Lin Yu finally drew upon the power of Sun True Fire and slashed out with his sword. "Get lost!"
"Pssh!~"
"Arghhh!~" Yan violently spat out blood on the spot.
He fell heavily to the ground, seriously injured and nearly cut to death.
That sword had injured his internal organs. He would not recover without spending several months bedridden.
"Yan!!"
Hu Liena was frightened when she saw how badly Yan had been injured. Before she could react, Lin Ye instantly seized Hu Liena by the throat.
This was the first time Hu Liena had seen Lin Ye look at her with such indifferent, icy eyes.
Her throat was gripped so tightly that she struggled to breathe, and Hu Liena became afraid. "Lin... Lin Ye, what are you going to do...?"
"Breaking off the engagement is one thing, and having no relationship anymore is another. But we did grow up together, and I still had some affection for you. Yet when you wanted to humiliate me and even trample on me!"
"I no longer have even the last shred of affection for you. Now! In my eyes, you're nothing but a stinking bitch!"
"Fuck off!"
Slap!
Without the slightest mercy, Lin Ye viciously slapped Hu Liena across the face.
"Mmgh, ahhh~"
Hu Liena cried out miserably.
Her body spun three hundred and sixty degrees through the air. One slap sent her flying several meters before she crashed hard onto the ground.
The blow left her limp and weak all over, her delicate body trembling violently.
Lin Ye's icy, vicious slap and those merciless words—
For some reason, though her face hurt, her heart hurt as well.
It was as though needles were stabbing into her heart. It hurt—hurt far too much!
At that moment, Hu Liena realized that she regretted it!
"Nana!!" Xie Yue flew into a rage. "Lin Ye! You actually dared to hit Nana so viciously!"
"First Soul Skill, Moon Blade Slash!"
Xie Yue charged forward explosively and slashed at him.
"So what? What can you, Xie Yue, possibly do to me? Get lost!"
Lin Ye swung the Angel Holy Sword, gathered with Sun True Fire, and fiercely slashed at the blade coming toward him.
Bang!
Sword and blade collided.
The two forces clashed.
But even with the boost of his First Soul Skill, Xie Yue's strength was still nowhere near Lin Ye's.
The next moment!
Pssh~
Xie Yue violently spat out blood as well and was blasted away, landing heavily on the ground with severe injuries.
"So strong... What martial soul did he awaken? How could he be... this strong..." Xie Yue's face was pale as he inwardly feared Lin Ye's power. He wanted to get up, but he had no strength left.
They had lost. They had truly lost.
And it was a crushing defeat!
"I advise you not to provoke me again in the future. Otherwise, next time, it won't be as simple as merely injuring you." Lin Ye coldly left those words behind, sheathed his sword, and turned to leave.
"I actually... I actually gave up someone so outstanding..."
The strength, talent, and ability Lin Ye had displayed were not merely a little greater than theirs. He was an absolute peerless genius who stood far above them!
Watching Lin Ye's resolute departing back, Hu Liena realized that she seemed about to lose this boy forever.
This boy who had grown up with her and shared happy times with her.
"No! I don't want that!~"
The more she thought about it, the more she regretted it, and a tear of remorse slipped from the corner of her eye.
She wanted to win Lin Ye back.
But Hu Liena was proud, arrogant, and possessed strong self-respect. She did not want to apologize or lower herself to admit that she regretted it. "Wait! Lin Ye!"
Lin Ye did not stop walking.
"Stop! I order you to stop in the name of the Pope's personal disciple! Stop already~!" Hu Liena cried anxiously, her voice carrying a hint of tears.
"Heh, your status as the Pope's personal disciple does not qualify you to order him around."
At that moment.
A disdainful, cold voice came from not far away.
Qian Renxue slowly emerged from the shadows. She had seen everything that had just happened.
But what Lin Ye saw was an incomparably beautiful young girl.
She had long golden hair and wore a gold-trimmed ceremonial dress. The skirt was very short, leaving her snow-white legs almost entirely exposed.
Her skin was fairer than snow.
She had a high nose bridge, slightly narrow phoenix-like eyes, and an exquisite face carrying a trace of imposing dignity.
Though she was only eleven years old.
In the Douluo Continent, where everyone matured early, she already possessed considerable feminine charm.
Her entire body also exuded a holiness and nobility that could not be desecrated or violated.
"Qian... Qian Renxue?" Lin Ye hesitated for two seconds before confirming her identity.
But Qian Renxue was, after all, the young mistress of Spirit Hall. Not everyone had met or interacted with her, and she had gone to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace at the age of nine, so Hu Liena's trio did not recognize her at once.
Hu Liena had no mind to care who Qian Renxue was. She asked, "I'm not qualified? What do you mean!"
