Chapter 128: Slaying the Bull Demon (Subscribe Please)
"Who dares to obstruct me!?"
After Zhang Li's body underwent demon transformation, it became as tough as iron, his fists clenched with the force of ten thousand jun.
His punch was like a mountain, smashing into the dazzling red sword light.
Chii—Chii—
The sharp, grating sound echoed through the courtyard like the clash of metal, completely shattering the array's talismanic seals.
Under the blast of the air wave, whether it was demon members of the Bai Shen Sect or the young men accompanying Gongye Shou, all were blown away in an instant.
The closest one, "Great Void Buddha Child" Fu Chen, bathed Gongye Shou beside him in the protective light of the Buddha.
The Buddha Light flickered, as if it would shatter in the next second.
Seeing this, both their faces drastically changed.
"Cow Demon" Zhang Li, caught off guard, was hit by the Sword Intent, the intent to kill, and the profound energy condensed on the Spring Rain Sword, instantly breaking his punch and involuntarily making him step back.
A splendid light shone on his face, forcing him to close his eyes.
Amidst his shock, a fleeting annoyance crossed Zhang Li's bovine face as he roared again:
"Who dares to hinder the actions of my Bai Shen Sect!?"
Three times he asked, unconsciously shifting from inquiring identity to declaring his own.
"The one who will kill you!"
Chen Yi's calm voice rang out from behind him.
As soon as the words fell, he had already seized the Spring Rain Sword and surged forward.
Chen Yi, swift as the wind, left several afterimages with each flash, stopping in front of a Bai Shen Sect demon.
In an instant, dozens of figures surrounded over a dozen demons halfway through their transformation.
"Sect Leader!"
One demon, stunned, looking at the several Chen Yis in front of him, his ferocious face turned to terror, he shrieked:
"Save—"
The rest of the demons, realizing what was happening, cried out for help, causing a drastic change in "Cow Demon" Zhang Li's expression.
"How daring! No matter who you are, I must kill you today!"
Chen Yi chuckled lightly, dozens of upright figures at once raised their hands level with their shoulders, then the Spring Rain Sword swept horizontally.
Sword One Peace.
The crimson sword light reappeared, but only three feet long, as effortless and casual as slicing vegetables through the necks of the demons.
The next moment, the afterimages slowly dissipated.
Chen Yi appeared in front of "Great Void Buddha Child" Fu Chen, holding the Spring Rain Sword at an angle, his face still wearing a trace of a smile.
"If you say to stop, wouldn't that make me lose face?"
The echo lingered in the dilapidated courtyard, surrounded by the demons whose heads were now separated from their bodies.
Only when their bodies thudded to the ground did the blood start spraying.
Gongye Shou, stupefied, watched the figure in front of him, his face full of shock.
Who is this person?
Such Sword Dao, such Sword Intent and intent to kill, truly terrifying to the extreme!
What's more, he could tell that the person in front of him was not old, and various renowned sword masters came to mind.
"Little Sword Immortal" Chen Yi?
"Antarctic Sword" Zhou Yiming?
Or Huang Wuji, ranked thirteenth on the Heavenly Pride List of "Evil Sword"?
Gongye Shou hadn't seen his face clearly and was unable to confirm for a moment.
However, "Great Void Buddha Child" Fu Chen recognized that figure, just like the scene he had witnessed at Dakong Temple.
—The sword light covered the sky, unsurpassed in sharpness.
Even though that young man was in Dakong Temple, surrounded by the light of Buddha, he still could not withstand the sharpness of that Sword Dao.
"Little Sword Immortal" Chen Yi!
Fu Chen pressed his palms together, silently chanting this name in his mind, his face showing a continuous change of expressions.
"Amitabha Buddha."
The chanting startled the nearby young men, who, seeing the dismembered demons, exhaled a breath of relief, then all turned their gazes toward Chen Yi.
While wondering about the identity of the newcomer, they mostly felt gratitude.
Had it not been for the overwhelming power of those two swords earlier, they all might have perished here.
Including the Princely Heir they were supposed to protect, who would have also suffered greatly.
"Such a fierce and potent Sword Intent…"
"Cow Demon" Zhang Li, eyes widening, looked down at Chen Yi from his elevated position, his face as large as a millstone filled with shock and anger.
Just one sword, and all the Bai Shen Sect demons who came to assassinate the Heir to the King of the Southern Garrison were wiped out.
One sword...
He couldn't help but recall a news he had heard a few days ago.
—The "Demoness" Wen Renying, also a Sect Leader of Bai Shen Sect, had attempted to assassinate the "Little Sword Immortal" Chen Yi and almost lost her life!
Following that, Zhang Li scrutinized Chen Yi, his gaze falling on the specks of crimson swirling around the Spring Rain Sword, and declared:
"You are Chen Yi, The 'Little Sword Immortal' from the Grand Void Sect!"
Chen Yi?
The surrounding youths, surprised, felt even more joy.
If the newcomer really was "Little Sword Immortal" Chen Yi, then they would safely overcome this crisis.
Gongye Shou also paused, looking at the imposing figure, and tentatively asked, "Chen Yi?"
Chen Yi turned his head and glanced at him, the corner of his eyes carrying a hint of a smile.
"Princely Heir, such a forgetful noble, you must have already forgotten this former classmate, right?"
Classmate…
Gongye Shou's mind inadvertently recalled their time studying at Xingwu Academy, especially the incident before they came to the Southern territories where they had tricked Chen Yi.
Thinking of this, a smirk appeared on Gongye Shou's face.
"Joking, how can I forget you?"
Chen Yi smiled slightly, then turned to face Zhang Li and said, "Now is not the time for casual chat, I'll catch up with you later."
The ordinary words emphasized slightly heavier on "catch up."
Gongye Shou naturally understood the implication, his smirk turning bitter.
Sometimes one had to admit the Buddhist saying of "karmic retribution" is damn true!
But for now, he knew it wasn't the time to dwell on these thoughts, quickly signaling the young men nearby to move further away.
