Chapter 459: Chapter 459: Even a Pushover Isn’t for You to Bully

With these five Direct Disciples in tow, Lin Yun headed for the pavilion while searching for other Flawless Palace disciples along the way.

Lin Yun knew that in these Saint’s Relics, fights to the death were inevitable if one wanted to obtain an inheritance or treasure. The real slaughter would begin once the disciples of the Five Great Forces gathered with their subordinate factions.

In the past, the Flawless Palace would never have dared to clash with the other Four Great Forces under these circumstances. Without a Demon Fiend of their own, they had no say in anything.

During any past explorations of Secret Realms or similar places, the Flawless Palace could only pick up scraps on the periphery, never daring to confront the other Four Great Forces head-on.

But things were different now. At the very least, the five Direct Disciples following Lin Yun were brimming with confidence.

After walking for a short while, Lin Yun suddenly stopped. His gaze shifted to a small forest on his left, from which he could feel Elemental Power fluctuations. It seemed another fight had broken out.

”Let’s go take a look,” he said to the five Direct Disciples. Lin Yun then led the way, rushing toward the small forest.

It wasn’t far. After about a hundred breaths, Lin Yun saw two groups locked in a bloody battle. The two sides were roughly equal in number, with about twenty people each.

It had to be said, Lin Yun’s luck was quite good. One of the two warring parties was composed of Flawless Palace disciples, and among them were Bai Zhicheng and another Core Disciple.

The ones fighting the Flawless Palace disciples were from Celestial Eagle Valley. As the two factions clashed, it was clear the Celestial Eagle Valley side also had two Core Disciples.

”Haha, Bai Zhicheng, stop your useless resistance! Senior Brother Lin will be here soon. When he arrives, not a single one of you from the Flawless Palace will escape!” The two sides were evenly matched; this Core Disciple from Celestial Eagle Valley couldn’t defeat Bai Zhicheng, but Bai Zhicheng couldn’t defeat him either.

But when he heard the other party mention ”Senior Brother Lin,” Bai Zhicheng’s expression turned grim. Lin Jianhong was one of the Five Great Demon Fiends. The moment he arrived, their side wouldn’t stand a chance, as no one could possibly contend with him.

”Senior Brother Bai, we have to find a chance to escape! Once Lin Jianhong gets here, we won’t even have a chance to run,” the other Flawless Palace Core Disciple said to Bai Zhicheng.

Without Lin Jianhong in the picture, the outcome of this battle would have been uncertain. But knowing that he was on his way, the morale of the Flawless Palace disciples instantly plummeted.

”Look for an opening and scatter,” Bai Zhicheng finally ordered through gritted teeth after a long moment of indecision.

Hearing Bai Zhicheng’s words, the Celestial Eagle Valley Core Disciple fighting him laughed. ”Hold these Flawless Palace people down! As soon as Senior Brother Lin arrives, we’ll slaughter them all today!”

”Alright!” As one side’s morale fell, the other’s soared. Celestial Eagle Valley’s momentum was now overwhelming.

Just then, Lin Yun arrived. Hearing Bai Zhicheng give the order to flee, he immediately shouted, ”Why run? Today, we will annihilate everyone from Celestial Eagle Valley!”

At the sound of the sudden voice, the disciples from both Flawless Palace and Celestial Eagle Valley paused their fighting. The Celestial Eagle Valley disciples all looked mockingly at the approaching Lin Yun. ’Annihilate us? Once Senior Brother Lin gets here, not one of you will escape,’ the Celestial Eagle Valley disciples sneered inwardly.

Like the Celestial Eagle Valley disciples, the members of Flawless Palace also turned to look at Lin Yun. Upon seeing him, a group of them called out, ”Senior Brother Lin.”

”Lin Yun, what do you mean by that? Once Lin Jianhong arrives, none of us will be able to get away!” Stopped by Lin Yun, Bai Zhicheng snapped irritably. Although the Bai Family had now sided with Lin Yun, Bai Zhicheng himself was still not convinced. He believed he was no worse than Lin Yun.

Seeing Lin Yun arrive, the Celestial Eagle Valley disciples didn’t press the attack. Their original task was simply to stall the Flawless Palace disciples. Now that they weren’t running, there was no need to act. Everything would be resolved once Senior Brother Lin arrived.

Seeing Bai Zhicheng’s furious expression, Lin Yun gave a faint smile. ”What? Is running the only thing disciples of my Flawless Palace know how to do?”

Provoked by Lin Yun’s words, it wasn’t just Bai Zhicheng who got angry; the other Core Disciple also became enraged. ”Lin Yun, you’re new to the Flawless Palace and have never fought one of the Five Great Demon Fiends. Do you have any idea how powerful Lin Jianhong is?” he blurted out.

”Oh? I don’t know about that. But surely this Lin Jianhong doesn’t have three heads and six arms, does he?” Lin Yun replied to the man with a smile. Today, he was going to make the Flawless Palace shed its past cowardice. At the same time, he would show the other Four Great Forces that with him, Lin Yun, around, the Flawless Palace was no longer an easy target for them to bully.

Before the Core Disciple could reply to Lin Yun, a loud laugh echoed from the distance. ”Haha, Lin Yun, did you really think that one fight with Song Tianyang makes you the sixth Great Demon Fiend of the Eastern Domain?”

Hearing this voice, fear appeared on the faces of the Flawless Palace disciples. In contrast, the disciples of Celestial Eagle Valley were ecstatic, some even shouting at the top of their lungs.

”Senior Brother Lin is here! It’s Senior Brother Lin!...........”

As the laughter faded, Lin Jianhong landed in front of the Celestial Eagle Valley disciples. Looking at Lin Yun, a mocking smile played on his lips. ”Lin Yun, you want to slaughter my Celestial Eagle Valley disciples? I wonder where you get such confidence.”

After speaking, Lin Jianhong turned to the pale-faced Flawless Palace disciples and burst into laughter. ”Heh, disciples of the Flawless Palace. I really don’t know how you still have the face to call yourselves one of the Six Great Forces. How about this: I’ll give you ten breaths to run. After ten breaths, I’ll start the hunt. If you manage to get away, you can count yourselves lucky.”

Hearing Lin Jianhong’s words, a few of the Flawless Palace disciples already began to consider retreating. Seeing the look on their faces, Lin Yun shook his head in disappointment. ’It seems the Flawless Palace of old was truly scared witless by past slaughters.’

Just as these people were about to flee, Lin Yun also let out a loud laugh. ”Haha, whether my Flawless Palace can slaughter your Celestial Eagle Valley is something we’ll find out by trying. No need for ten breaths. I’ll give your Celestial Eagle Valley disciples five breaths to run. Remember, only five breaths.”

Lin Yun’s audacity made Lin Jianhong’s smiling face instantly turn grim. He stared at Lin Yun and said coldly, ”Lin Yun, do you really think one battle against Song Tianyang puts you on the same level as the Five Great Demon Fiends?”

”We’ll know once we try, won’t we?” Lin Yun replied with a light chuckle.

”Fine, fine, fine! Lin Yun, today I will show you just how vast the gap is between you and a true Demon Fiend! Disciples of Celestial Eagle Valley, hear my command! Eradicate these Flawless Palace ants! Leave none alive!” Lin Jianhong roared.

At Lin Jianhong’s command, the twenty-odd Celestial Eagle Valley disciples behind him responded in unison, ”Kill!”

Seeing this, Lin Yun glanced at Bai Zhicheng, the other Core Disciple, and the rest of the Flawless Palace disciples behind him. His voice was firm as he said, ”Do you find it glorious to be slaughtered like pigs and dogs? Do you think our Flawless Palace is inferior to Celestial Eagle Valley? Who says the Flawless Palace has no Demon Fiend...?”
