Both of them were sword cultivators, and their Sword Intent was ruthless. Their Seventh-Level Sword Intent was considered monstrous.
But in Lin Xuan's eyes, it was just a little lacking.
He shook his head slightly.
Master of Formations?
That's really giving him too much credit.
He had only happened to have seen how to break the relevant formations, but he mostly used sword formations.
Looking at the two people rushing towards him, Lin Xuan raised an eyebrow with a hint of helplessness.
He only wanted to pick a Nether Soul Saint Lingzhi, but he got caught up in this mess.
That's enough.
It's normal for treasures to be fought over and even killed.
Thinking it over, Lin Xuan casually looked away, but the sword in his hand had already slashed forward.
A white, wave-like streak of light tore through space and slashed toward the necks of the two Late Saint Realm experts.
So far, Lin Xuan's strength has been steadily improving little by little.
He practiced the Cultivation Method given by the system and awakened the Lin Household bloodline, to the point that he himself was like a huge Spirit Gathering Formation, refining the Spiritual Power around him every minute and every second.
Improve steadily step by step.
And then there's his trump card.
Killing Saint Realm expert, whether in the early or late stages, makes no difference to Lin Xuan.
Only by having the Great Saint face to face could one possibly arouse his fighting spirit and interest.
They're only at the Late Saint Realm now...
He doesn't even need to look.
Seeing that Lin Xuan didn't even glance at them, the two Late Saint Realm cultivators felt insulted and their faces darkened. But soon, in the next second, they had no time to think about anything else.
A blinding white Sword Qi slashed horizontally in front of the two of them.
Extremely subtle.
Extremely exquisite.
The earth is spinning.
The Spiritual Power emitted a violent explosion.
The next second.
Thump!
Thump!
Two muffled thuds echoed as they hit the ground.
Dongfang Muxue stared in astonishment, her lips trembling, almost doubting whether she was dreaming.
she...
She didn't see wrong, did she!?
The two Late Saint Realm didn't even have time to resist Lin Xuan's Sword Intent. The Sword Intent attached to their bodies instantly dissolved as if in water, and was replaced by Lin Xuan's Sword Qi, which directly slashed their necks, annihilating their souls along with their bodies, leaving only their heads, which fell to the ground unwillingly!
Moreover, the head, which was being eroded by the Sword Intent, was gradually disappearing, as if it were being eroded by fire.
Just two breaths.
Two powerful experts at the Late Saint Realm have fallen!
The air itself fell into a deathly silence.
Dongfang Muxue couldn't even react in the slightest.
She couldn't help but think.
Perhaps I am still within the Taiyu Divine Dynasty and have not yet emerged.
All of this was just a hallucination caused by the worsening of his spiritual injuries.
Otherwise, how could she have witnessed the Eldest Imperial Prince's two most renowned sword saints being so brutally murdered, their bodies left unburied?
This is terrifying!
and...
She looked at Lin Xuan, feeling as if her neck had rusted, making it extremely difficult to turn.
Only one thought was on my mind.
This person...
Just who is he?!
Luckily, I didn't offend the other party in the first place, otherwise, I would have been finished!
But, but! Does the Taiyu Divine Dynasty really still have such a powerful figure?
Peak Perfection Saint Realm?
Or perhaps Half-Step Great Saint?!
At this moment, Hong Xi was on the outermost side, finally reacted. Her eyes were filled with shock and fear. Without hesitation, she turned around and tried to escape.
But the next second...
Pfft!
A soft sound rang out, and she slowly lowered her head to look at her chest, where she saw a white blade stained with blood, piercing through her body and then withdrawing in an instant.
Lin Xuan remained calm and sheathed his sword.
It's nothing.
Let him be a good Samaritan to the end today.
Dongfang Muxue only realized what was happening after Lin Xuan casually threw One Sword at her as Hong Xi was about to escape.
Yes.
Besides those two Saint Realm, there's also a traitor!
Thump!
Not far away, Hong Xi suddenly knelt on the ground, spitting out mouthfuls of blood.
She clutched her abdomen in pain.
This is her Achilles' heel; once it's breached, her death is only a matter of time.
"Princess..."
"Princess..."
Her hands trembled as she tried to crawl back, but Dongfang Muxue just stared at her lying on the ground with a complicated expression. After a long while, she walked over, stopped in front of her, and slowly spoke.
" Hong Xi, I believe I have treated you well..."
With a soft sigh, Dongfang Muxue placed the tip of her sword against Hong Xi's neck and forcefully slashed down, silencing any explanation Hong Xi was about to utter.
A hint of sadness lingered in her eyes as she murmured to herself.
"No matter what your reasons are, I don't want to hear them anymore..."
Traitors are unforgivable.
Such decisiveness earned Lin Xuan's slight, approving glance.
However, that's all.
He looked at the Vast Sea Saint King.
While Dongfang Muxue was dealing with the traitor, the Vast Sea Saint King had already picked the Nether Soul Saint Lingzhi, naturally taking the largest one.
Seeing that the Vast Sea Saint King nodded, Lin Xuan knew that although the Nether Soul Saint Lingzhi was a trap, it was indeed a rare and precious medicine. He then spoke up.
"I've finished harvesting my Ganoderma lucidum, goodbye."
For Lin Xuan, everything that happened today was just a minor accident.
I just wiped it off casually.
He had no interest in what kind of princess the woman who had escaped this conspiracy was, where she came from, or why she had been ambushed.
The other party initially showed him some kindness and respect, so he didn't mind helping out.
That's all.
The two turned and left, one in white and one in red, their colors striking and dazzling.
Dongfang Muxue stared at the dissipating spiritual light before suddenly snapping back to reality. She subconsciously took two steps forward, only to step into the swamp and wake up with a start.
A look of annoyance and regret appeared between her brows.
That man's demeanor was so captivating that she was momentarily distracted and failed to capture such a formidable figure.
That's really something!
Taking a deep breath to calm her own helplessness, Dongfang Muxue then turned her gaze to the people around her.
She spoke without any expression.
"None of you are allowed to utter a single word about what happened today."
" Hong Fei, after returning to the Divine Dynasty, you may request to the Sea-Hiding Pavilion."
The Sea-Hiding Pavilion is a forbidden area of the Taiyu Divine Dynasty. Those who enter will have their souls stolen and all their memories examined. It is specifically designed to deal with traitors.
Once a person goes through that ordeal, they're basically ruined; even their memories will be shattered.
Although Hong Fei did not betray them, she was wrong to not notice the problem while spending every day with Hong Xi.
not to mention...
She almost offended that senior colleague!
Thinking of the consequences, Dongfang Muxue felt a chill run down her spine.
Therefore, her tone was utterly merciless.
Hong Fei's face turned pale, but in the end, she nodded with a bitter smile.
"And... use every means at your disposal to help this princess find this senior's whereabouts. Under no circumstances should you disturb him; simply gather information on his tracks. In the future, I will repay this kindness with all my might!"
