Chapter 293: Assault
Under the bright sun, in front of the entrance to the Eight Pole Sect's vestige, a barely visible figure floated in the sky, while on the ground stood a group of warriors who had just been stripped of the Chaotic Demon Dragon Canine.
"Damn brat, give us back the blood essence right now! We've been fighting with that thing for so long, and you come and steal it from us without even saying a greeting!" exclaimed a warrior from the Dual Nirvana Realm, tall and thin, with anger, as he scanned the Eight Pole Sect's vestige.
"Get out of there right now! Why would a decent person behave like a thief? You haven't contributed at all, yet you dare to take all of its blood essence without any scruples! Don't you want to live?" said a man dressed in yellow next to the tall, thin warrior, angry.
"How dare you steal something from the Great Song Dynasty, which belongs to Song Duan! Don't you know that Song Duan has already reached the Dual Nirvana Realm? If we start a fight, I bet that brat will be beaten until he doesn't look human anymore!"
"That's right, and besides, next to him is Mu Sha, from the Desert Realm, whose power, both personal and of the dynasty, is on the same level as the Great Song Dynasty. If they fight, it will surely be interesting to watch."
"Forget about that, look next to the guy who just stole the blood essence. That's Peng Fei, the black-clad guy who hasn't said a word! Although they're all in the Dual Nirvana Realm, his strength is no less than that of the two previous ones."
"In fact, the guy who just stole the blood essence got himself into trouble by offending so many powerful people at once. It seems like this time, he's really going to suffer."
After the wind blew and dispersed the smoke raised by the Chaotic Demon Dragon Canine before dying, Song Duan immediately located the figure suspended in the sky. However, he didn't make any further checks and stepped forward, leaping directly towards the figure.
As he approached the figure, he noticed that the individual was holding the blood essence of the Chaotic Demon Dragon Canine in their hand. He felt a strong urge to kill them and shouted, "Damn brat, hand over that blood essence right now!"
After saying that, Song Duan concentrated all his power into his fist and thrust it towards the figure. The sound of the wind breaking was clear as it sliced through the surrounding air, aiming directly at the figure.
As Song Duan thought his attack was going to be effective, he taunted directly, "Haha, is that all the skill you have, just stealing things from others?"
However, before he could finish his taunt, the figure suddenly moved, dodging his fist, and then reached out a hand to grab Song Duan's head. A feeling of extreme terror spread from the palm of the figure to Song Duan.
Along with that terrifying feeling, an extremely hot flame inserted itself into Song Duan's body from the palm of the figure. At first, Song Duan desperately resisted the burning of the flame inserted into his body and didn't pay much attention to the terrifying sensation.
As he struggled against the flame, he felt a terrifying force frantically sucking his soul from his head. The pain of having his soul ripped out made him lose resistance against the fire that mercilessly burned him.
"Ahhh!"
Finally, the flame in Song Duan's body burned stronger and stronger, burning his mental strength until there was nothing left, and he was dragged down with his soul ripped out, finally falling in front of the warriors below into a large hole, screaming in pain.
Lin Yan also descended slowly next to the body. The warriors saw Song Duan fall from the sky in a pitiful state, causing them to look up at the sky with curiosity.
As they looked up at the sky, they spotted a figure descending slowly. When they recognized who that figure was, the entire Eight Pole Sect erupted into an uproar.
"The guy who killed Song Duan is... is... Lin Yan? Wait, Lin Yan?"
"What did you say? That guy is Lin Yan! That's the Assassin, how is it possible to find him here too!"
"The situation is going to change now... I thought someone was brave, daring to steal from Song Duan's older brothers. Turns out it was this Lin Yan, I bet Mu Sha and Peng Fei are also in trouble!"
When Mu Sha and Peng Fei saw that the one descending was none other than Lin Yan, they were frozen in place. But when they tried to leave after regaining their senses, Lin Yan suddenly appeared in front of them.
The warriors started saying, "Run while the Assassin isn't targeting us! That guy doesn't leave survivors!"
Lin Yan knew that if he let Song Duan and the other two go after killing Song Duan, they would probably come looking for trouble in the future. So he decided they couldn't let them go.
Before Mu Sha and Peng Fei could react, Lin Yan cast a Great Dao Sword formation, covering them and the warriors from their respective dynasties.
With a wave of his hand, thousands of spiritual swords fell directly on them, stabbing wildly. The smell of blood permeated the air, and the screams of pain echoed throughout the formation.
When the formation fell silent, Lin Yan withdrew the formation, revealing a field full of corpses. The warriors, shaken, said, "Oh, encountering Lin Yan the Assassin! Not only do they steal our possessions, but they also kill us..."
Before they finished speaking, Lin Yan looked at them and said slowly, "Does anyone have any objections?"
Upon hearing this, the warriors who had previously shown compassion ran away, fearing that Lin Yan would kill them if he saw them showing compassion.
"Brother Lin Yan!"
At that moment, Lin Dong's voice suddenly sounded, and then they landed next to Lin Yan. Since Lin Yan moved very quickly when he shot out, Lin Dong and the others not only didn't react immediately, but their speed was also much slower than Lin Yan's, so it took them a while to catch up.
However, when they finally caught up, what was once the bustling Eight Pole Sect's vestige was now filled only with them and the fallen warriors on the ground, in a deplorable state.
"Brother Lin Yan, is this... your doing again...?" Lin Dong and the others were stunned to see the scene, and then spoke slowly.
Lin Yan nodded with a smile upon hearing this, then took out the blood essence he had just obtained and handed it to Lin Dong, remembering that this blood essence would be of great help to Lin Dong according to the originals.
Upon seeing this, Lin Dong's eyes widened quickly, and then he said excitedly, "Isn't this the blood essence of the Chaotic Demon Dragon Canine we just killed? Are you doing all this just to help me get this?"
Lin Yan smiled faintly and said, "This will benefit you a lot, and giving it to them will undoubtedly give us tougher opponents in the future."
