Chapter 1551 - 840: Annihilation (Part 2)
The Third Elder faced these two attacks, paused for a moment, then immediately displayed decisiveness, and promptly used a Mystic Rank Martial Technique, barely managing to block Qin Mingyue’s Sword Energy River. At that moment, Lin Feng’s hand silently pressed down towards the Third Elder.
Instantly, the Third Elder felt a powerful sense of annihilation directly injected into his body, causing his already deteriorating body to weaken further, slowly inching towards death.
"Younger generation, thinking you can defeat me like this, you’re not qualified yet?" The Third Elder shouted loudly, looking at Lin Feng in front of him, his palms pushing across: "Mystic Rank Martial Technique, Mountain Pushing Palm."
Lin Feng snorted coldly, once again clashing with the Third Elder in a strike, being pushed back three steps. However, the Undying Seal Technique timely neutralized the opponent’s attack, and at this moment, Qin Mingyue’s icy sword peak directly pierced into the Third Elder’s body.
"Old Three!"
"Third Elder."
Several cries of alarm came from Yan Wuji and the Great Elder, as well as others who saw the Third Elder being defeated and killed by Lin Feng and Qin Mingyue’s joint effort.
Nearby, Han Yan’s face drastically changed, and while continually exchanging blows with the Third Elder, a single palm strike directly hit the Second Elder, allowing him to join the Third Elder.
Seeing this scene, Yan Wuji and the Great Elder were incredibly shocked, unable to believe that the two closest to themselves in the family had died so quickly and so simply, like they were easily defeated.
"Back when Chong’er was born, he should have been sent to the sect; it’s my shortsightedness." Yan Wuji sighed gently, his face full of misery, because the battle had already been lost.
"Brother Qin, I am willing to hand over the Longevity Pill and also to relinquish the Yan Family’s treasure weapon, and moreover, I’ll commit suicide on the spot. I wonder if you could spare the innocent members of the Yan Family?" Yan Wuji suddenly said.
Hearing Yan Wuji’s words, the Qin Sect also stopped and lightly sighed, saying: "Brother Yan, if only you had realized today’s outcome sooner, was it not good for the four families to develop together in Giant Sea City?"
"A wrong step leads to a wrong path at every corner; once you step out, you lose the road of choice. Human desires are endless, and conquering oneself is a very difficult task." Yan Wuji laughs bitterly, choosing not to speak further.
"All members of the Yan Family, obey me and stop." Yan Wuji said faintly, his voice not loud yet reaching every ear present.
Upon hearing Yan Wuji’s words, every member of the Yan Family paused, looking somewhat bewildered at the Family Head, while Yan Wuji said lightly: "Today’s matters originated from me; you should not bear hatred for the Qin and Han Families. Henceforth, I will no longer be the leader of the Yan Family."
"Family Head." The Great Elder’s face showed a slight emotion as he spoke to Yan Wuji.
Yan Wuji sighed softly and said: "Some things, once done, require a price to be paid."
"Master Zhang, take care of this bottle of Longevity Pill." Yan Wuji tossed the Longevity Pill to Zhang Xu. When Zhang Xu saw the pill in hand, his eyes flickered slightly. However, now that the master uncle is absent, given this situation, it would be best to let the Yan Family off.
"Since the Yan Family Head understands the grand order, I, as the Pavilion Master, promise on behalf of the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion’s branch in Giant Sea City, that we won’t act against future members of the Yan Family." Zhang Xu said lightly.
"Thank you, Master Zhang." Yan Wuji gave a bitter smile, lamenting that a century-old enterprise had been destroyed by his hand.
"Brother Qin, I wish to ask one favor?" Yan Wuji spoke bitterly.
"What is it? Feel free to speak." Qin Sect said calmly.
At this moment, Qin Sect sat on the ground, alongside him lay an ancient zither, presenting a carefree demeanor as if he were a transcendent figure.
"Regarding the Yan Family’s property, I don’t expect much to be preserved, but I do hope Brother Qin could leave the Yan Family enough for living expenses, and moreover, I hope to retain one of the Yan Family’s Martial Techniques." Yan Wuji said.
"That is only right; the supreme art created by the Yan Family ancestor can remain untouched. After all, it is the legacy left by their ancestors." Qin Sect responded calmly.
Hearing Qin Sect’s words, Zhang Xu wanted to say something, but intended to hold his tongue, for why stir trouble with the local four families over a mere Earth Rank Martial Technique?
"Thank you, Brother Qin." Yan Wuji showed an understanding expression, then showed a determined look, quietly closing his eyes as his aura waned, death drawing ever near.
The Great Elder also sighed softly, sitting down, beginning to transform into death, self-concluding.
At this point, the Chen Family and Yan Family had decisively withdrawn from the history of Giant Sea City. Lin Feng sighed gently, seeing such a scene, feeling warned, a wrong step in the cultivation world sometimes means the difference between life and death.
As for the other members of the Yan Family, Lin Feng had no thoughts of revenge, after all, the instigators were the Yan Family’s upper echelon, and now nearly all of them were dead; was Lin Feng going to brandish the sword against the weaker ones?
Han Family Head extended his hand, allowing the Fengyun Saber to fall into his grasp, while Flood Dragon Sword naturally ended up in the Qin Family Head’s hand. Zhang Xu wanted to say something but, upon looking at the Longevity Pill in his hand, breathed out a sigh of relief, feeling it was sufficient.
"You all should leave, you have three days to depart from Giant Sea City. I assume within the Yan Family, there are many experts in the Third Spirit Realm; living in any small city should still be possible." Qin Sect spoke lightly.
Upon hearing Qin Sect’s words, the remaining Yan Family members performed a ceremonial bow towards Qin Sect and then left the Chen Family.
Qin Sect, watching, said to Zhang Xu: "Master Zhang, I believe the remaining matters have little to do with the Spiritual Treasure Pavilion, after all, the Chen Family’s most important possession is already within the Pavilion."
Zhang Xu nodded and smiled: "What Qin Family’s head says is true; naturally we won’t involve ourselves in these matters."
To Zhang Xu, the Chen Family’s collection was not particularly appealing, even though it included the upper section of the famed Heaven Rank Martial Technique, Formless Tribulation Finger. However, despite this finger technique being Yunzhong Temple’s top martial technique, it was only the upper section, so Zhang Xu paid little mind.
Qin Family Head nodded before Zhang Xu took his leave with his people.
At this time, Qin Family Head looked at Han Family Head and said: "Brother Han, let us each take three parts of what’s here, leave two parts for the members of the Chen family, and the remaining two parts for the next four families, what do you say?"
Han Family Head pondered briefly before saying: "Agreed, your arrangements are always well thought out, let it be as you suggested."
"Thank you for your understanding, Brother Han." Qin Sect replied with a slight smile.
"Your consideration is not mine," Han Family Head replied with a slight smile.
Both shared a faint smile, understanding without the need for words.
Meanwhile, Lin Feng, along with Han Yan and Qin Mingyue, returned, having no interest in the distribution business; Lin Feng retained more interest in cultivation. Regarding the Sky Flipping Seal and Three Treasures Ruyi Palm, these two strongest martial arts he possessed still left him perplexed — not a good omen — so he intended to delve into them, along with the Mystic Sect’s Fire Character Technique, which also required exploration.
Actually, from a certain perspective, the Mystic Sect’s Fire Character Technique should also be considered a martial technique; a Heaven Rank Martial Technique, but understanding such techniques was extraordinarily challenging.
Moreover, each move and each style were difficult to comprehend, not like the Heavenly Blade Eight Techniques recorded, which allowed Lin Feng, within half a month, to achieve some understanding and even initially perform. But these three techniques still had no clarity at all.
Concerning other matters, all of them were similar.
Heaven Rank Martial Techniques are truly difficult to comprehend, therefore Lin Feng must continue his studies within his room.
Han Yan and Qin Mingyue were similarly uninterested in these matters, also choosing to return, planning to continue their diligent cultivation, clearly the impact Gu Haoran had on them was significant.
