Chapter 14: The Enemy is Slain, Now is the Time
"Young Master, please calm down!" A guard pulled Yang Jiuli back and protected him.
"Yang Lin has really gone mad, completely mad!" Inside the mourning hall, many guests shuddered.
"Lin Yu, why waste time talking to this brat? Just make him hand over the 'Black Abyss Ancient Token' and get this over with as soon as possible!"
Just then, an impatient voice rang out.
Yang Lin's original name was Lin Yu, but he changed his name after being adopted by Yang Mo.
But then, inside the mourning hall, several burly men suddenly pushed through the crowd of guests and entered the hall.
Yang Jiuli's eyes flashed as he looked at the burly men who emerged from the crowd.
There were thirteen people in total, all dressed in loose hemp clothing.
The leader was about sixty years old, but did not look old.
He had extremely long, thick eyebrows and deep, sinister eyes that were as sharp as knives, making people's hearts tremble at the sight of him.
The man's body trembled, and his hempen clothes were shattered and fell to the ground, revealing a brocade robe underneath.
The other twelve people also shuddered, their clothes torn, revealing short leather outfits underneath.
They reached into their belts and each pulled out a soft sword.
"This is Yang Lin's man...?" Upon seeing this, the guests in the mourning hall felt a jolt of fear.
Tang Yifan and Qin Zhixue glanced sideways at these suddenly exposed powerful individuals.
"That aura... it's a Grandmaster!" Qin Zhixue looked at the man in brocade robes with long eyebrows, her face full of apprehension.
She involuntarily took a few steps back.
"Take down Tang Yifan and Qin Zhixue!" The man in brocade robes with long eyebrows pointed his gaze and said to the twelve burly men beside him.
This person's name is Wei Zhan, and he is a Grandmaster.
"Yes!" The twelve burly men moved and split into two teams. One team drew their swords and slashed at Qin Jianhe and the others.
A team slashed at Tang Xiao.
"Not good!" Tang Yifan's eyes flashed, and he unfolded the folding fan in his hand, from which needle-like hidden weapons flew out like a rain of arrows.
The other two guards spread their palms and threw four poison mist thunderbolts at the six powerful attackers.
Tang Xiao grabbed Tang Yifan with his left hand and, like a roc spreading its wings, retreated backward.
He was a half-step Grandmaster and had already been secretly suppressing the poison gas.
Although I felt weak in my muscles and confused, I still fought with all my might and reacted as quickly as possible.
Qin Jianhe stood protectively in front of Qin Zhixue.
One of his two guards leaped into the air, drew his longsword, and slashed down with the "Shadow-Splitting Sword" of the Famous Sword Manor, leaving a trail of light and shadow in the air as he thrust, slashed, and cut at the three warriors who had attacked first.
The sword shadows were so dazzling that it was impossible to distinguish between the real and the fake.
Another guard from the Famous Sword Manor darted forward and unleashed a sweeping attack, "Sweeping Through a Thousand Armies," towards the other three martial artists.
The two worked together to immediately halt the six men's offensive.
However, the six warriors remained unfazed.
Their eyes gleamed with ferocity as they charged forward with soft swords, unleashing a flurry of sword shadows.
Clang!
The sword flashed, and a clanging sound rang out.
The moment the two sides clashed, two guards from Mingjian Manor were knocked away.
The opponent was clearly at the half-step Grandmaster level, far surpassing even the peak of the renowned masters.
Upon seeing this, the guests were filled with fear and all retreated to the sides of the mourning hall, leaning against the pillars and walls.
The six martial artists then seized the opportunity to attack Qin Zhixue.
Three of them leaped into the air from the front and left and right sides, and then swung their swords down.
Three other people wielded swords and attacked from the front, leaving Qin Jianhe and Qin Zhixue with no way to avoid it.
On the other side, six cultivators, wielding soft swords, repelled Tang Yifan's hidden needles and shattered the thunderbolt.
Smoke billowed up everywhere.
A figure leaped into the air above the smoke, his eyes fixed on Tang Yifan, ready to pounce.
Just then, a deafening roar suddenly echoed throughout the mourning hall.
The tightly closed door shattered, and Yang Xu, the traitor guarding the entrance, was pierced through by the broken wood chips and died instantly.
A sword aura slashed towards Wei Zhan, the brocade-clad man who stood motionless in the hall.
Wei Zhan's eyelids twitched, and he suddenly drew his soft sword from his waist, turned around, and blocked the attack with his sword.
brush!
Wei Zhan slashed out with his sword, shattering the sword energy that was coming from outside the mourning hall.
Just then, outside the mourning hall, a man with snow-white hair and a sword case on his back appeared, holding a sword that rippled like water. The white-haired man leaped up like a rainbow piercing the sun, hovering in the air, and thrust at Wei Zhan.
Wei Zhan moved swiftly, like a fox, and immediately dodged.
"It's Qin Shisan!" Yang Lin's eyes flashed as he looked at the white-haired man who had suddenly appeared before the coffin, his face solemn.
He touched the ground with his feet, ready to leap out and deal with Qin Shisan.
"Now!" Suddenly, behind the coffin, Yang Jiuli moved his hand and slammed his palm onto the coffin lid.
The coffin lid flew off and struck Yang Lin.
"This is..." Yang Lin was surprised and immediately turned around to look at the coffin lid and Yang Jiuli. He reached out his palm to pat it.
boom!
The coffin lid was shattered by Yang Lin's palm strike.
"Secret Technique... Soul Tide!" Just then, the light patterns between Yang Jiuli's brows intertwined, evolving into a vortex.
The immense spiritual power surged towards Yang Lin's brow and mind like a storm of the soul or a tidal wave.
boom!
Yang Lin immediately felt an invisible force impact his forehead, his skull felt like it was about to crack, and his consciousness began to become hazy and blurred.
At that moment, a tall and imposing man rose from the coffin and leaped six meters into the air.
The next moment, a two-foot-long short gun appeared in the man's sleeve, hanging in his palm.
Holding a short gun, he swooped down like a streak of lightning, aiming for Yang Lin, whose consciousness had briefly fallen into a daze.
Click!
In an instant, Yang Lin's bones shattered and his body was pierced through.
The intense pain and the receding of the soul tide power brought Yang Lin back to consciousness.
His gaze shifted to the man in front of him who held a short gun and had pierced his chest.
His eyes were filled with disbelief as he murmured, "Yang Xuan...you didn't..."
Before he could finish speaking, the man holding the pistol flipped his hand and slapped Yang Lin.
Yang Lin was immediately knocked away, his heart meridian ruptured, and he fell to the ground coughing up large amounts of blood, clearly on the verge of death from severe injuries.
Yang Lin was still spitting blood, and his body was convulsing.
But he tried hard to focus his eyes, looking straight ahead.
There, a tall, imposing man, holding a short gun, coldly looked down at Yang Lin.
The person in front of me was Yang Xuan, who should have been dead.
Behind him, Yang Jiuli strode over and stood beside Yang Xuan, coldly looking down at Yang Lin.
Clearly, Yang Jiuli and Yang Xuan had planned ahead to strike at the crucial moment and deliver a fatal blow to the enemy.
Only in this way can we control the overall situation.
Otherwise, he would have turned to death upon hearing that Yang Lin had killed his third brother and plotted to injure his wife.
Yang Xuan has been in charge of Piaoxue Manor for more than ten years, and this is not just due to his momentary courage. He is also a person who knows the importance of things.
Swish, swish!
Just as Yang Jiuli and Yang Xuan were perfectly coordinated and captured Yang Lin in one fell swoop, on the other side, sword light flashed and blood splattered.
Three people who had leaped into the air and were within seven feet of Qin Zhixue were instantly cut down from the sky by the sword light.
The three who attacked head-on were slashed in the back by chilling sword energy, their bodies exploding apart.
Six powerful individuals, including two half-step Grandmasters, were killed in an instant.
The person who made the move was none other than the white-haired man, the sword master Qin Shisan.
"He was feinting to the east while attacking in the west! He deliberately attacked me just now, his aim was to kill six of my men!" Wei Zhan's eyes were bloodshot.
