The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 662: Chapter 662: Not Satisfied!

The Qi fluctuations of the two Daoist King Martial Artists were like two overfilled balloons that suddenly exploded. The commotion shocked the many adventurers watching from a distance into retreating repeatedly, their blood rushing to their heads as their eyes filled with horror.

At this moment, they fully understood just how powerful these seemingly aged Martial Artists were.

In front of such mighty figures, they were like ants before an elephant, or perhaps not even worthy of being called ants.

Only two afterimages could be seen pausing slightly in the space before rushing towards the young Martial Artist opposite them.

The adventurers watching from afar could only see a terrifying flash of light. The space was filled with innumerable fine lines, constantly extending outward.

Though they had not eaten pork, they had seen pigs run. They knew those fine black lines were spatial cracks created by the energy fluctuations the spatial barriers couldn’t withstand.

Those cracks could easily tear apart their adventurer bodies.

”Powerful!”

”Such a terrifying force.”

”Yes, truly horrifyingly strong. Just what kind of person is Lord Gu Yang? Even his personal guards possess such strength; his status must be incredibly prestigious, right?”

”Isn’t it obvious? On our Heavenly Origin Continent, the strongest Martial Artists are supposed to be the Dao Emperor Realm Practitioners. And Lord Gu Yang’s two guards, even if not Dao Emperor Realm Practitioners, must certainly be extremely formidable Daoist Kings.”

”That Jing Family member is really asking for death! If I were him, I’d definitely stay far away. Why on earth would he approach Lord Gu Yang?”

”Exactly! Tsk tsk, he might be reduced to bones. I’d better stand further away to avoid being taken out accidentally.”

The adventurers discussed with amazement. In their view, Jing Yan was as good as dead.

”Protected by two Dao King Realm Peak Martial Artists, the Gu Family is indeed more cautious. But, mere Dao King Realm Peaks dare to act so boldly in front of me?” Jing Yan’s not-so-loud voice carried an extreme Penetration Power and reached into Gu Yang’s ears.

Gu Yang felt a chill growing in his heart as he watched the two Ancient Family Elders attack Jing Yan intently.

He prayed that the Elders would kill Jing Yan, or at least fully stop him.

”Whoosh!”

In front of Jing Yan, a blue Sword Light instantly condensed.

A casually cast blue Sword Light swept across with a piercing murderous intent, crushing the two Ancient Family Elders without a doubt.

Endless Power released.

The two Ancient Family Elders felt an oncoming murderous intent that seemed to completely freeze their bodies, rendering them immobile.

Their previously fast-moving shadows suddenly stopped.

If one were closer, they could see the two Daoist King Realm Peak Martial Artists from the Gu Family, their eyes filled with terror.

Although the blue Sword Light was not yet upon them, they already understood that they were powerless to resist. Just that murderous intent alone made their Primordial Energy flow extremely sluggish.

”Young master... run!” One Elder struggled to turn his head as if using all his strength, and shouted at Gu Yang.

”Puf! Puf!”

Following that, their bodies were enveloped by the blue Sword Light.

After two soft sounds, the blue Sword Light disappeared, and everything around seemed to come to a standstill except for the gentle breeze that continued to stir.

The bodies of the two Ancient Family Elders fell. Their heads rolled off their necks, rolling far away on the ground.

Seeing this scene, the adventurers watching from afar felt their hearts as if trying to leap out from their throats.

They never imagined that the two powerful Martial Artists would be killed with a single sword strike! Indeed, with one sword, both were slain, their heads severed.

So, just how formidable was that young man? Could he have been a Dao Emperor Realm Practitioner?

He claimed to be from the Jing Family, but how could the Jing Family possibly have a practitioner of the Dao Emperor Realm? And if they did, why would they have lain low for more than ten years?

All of this began to feel unreal, and many people thought they might be dreaming.

The two guards accompanying Gu Yang had displayed considerable strength, witnessed by all, yet were both slain by a single sword stroke right afterward!

Who would believe it if the tale were told?

Gu Yang’s face turned deathly pale!

An elder had already urged him to flee quickly, but how could he escape? With a Peak Dao King Realm elder being directly killed by Jing Yan with a single sword stroke, how could he, a mere Daoist Master Realm martial artist, ever escape from Jing Yan?

”Jing Yan...” Gu Yang forced himself to remain calm.

This was a time when he must stay calm, as there might still be a glimmer of hope for life.

Gu Yang had never imagined that he would face the danger of death within the territory of Donglin City. Had he anticipated this, he would never have come here to attempt the eradication of the Jing Family.

But now regret was pointless; it was too late.

”Could it be that you’ve already stepped into the Dao Emperor Realm?” Gu Yang inhaled deeply and asked with an odd tone.

He was reluctant to believe that Jing Yan was still alive, much less that Jing Yan had become a Dao Emperor Realm Practitioner. Yet the undeniable facts before him left him no choice but to think so.

What else could someone who killed two Peak Dao King Realm cultivators with a single sword stroke be if not from the Dao Emperor Realm?

”It won’t hurt to tell you; indeed, I am of the Dao Emperor Realm!” Jing Yan’s Divine Soul stirred as he transmitted a Divine Thought.

Hearing Jing Yan acknowledge it, Gu Yang’s heart sank even further.

He couldn’t fathom how Jing Yan could have reached the Dao Emperor Realm in such a short period.

As far as he knew, Jing Yan was barely past thirty years of age—how could he possibly be a Dao Emperor Realm Practitioner?

But now was not the time for him to ponder such matters. His very life hung by a thread.

”Jing Yan, you said earlier you had questions for me. If I answer them, are you willing to spare me?” Gu Yang’s voice came out strained and coarse.

His life and death were completely at the whim of Jing Yan.

”Correct!”

”I ask you, does your Gu Family have a man named Jing Lunnan in captivity?” Jing Yan asked.

Ever since the slaying of Gu Xinghe, Jing Yan had suspected a connection between his father Jing Lunnan’s disappearance and the Gu Family.

Later, when chased by the old bastard Gu Wanquan, Gu Wanquan mentioned this affair as well, reinforcing Jing Yan’s belief that his father’s disappearance was definitely linked to the Gu Family.

Gu Yang, the Gu Family’s candidate Patriarch, might be privy to this matter. Jing Yan faintly hoped that his father Jing Lunnan was not dead and still lived in this world.

”Jing Lunnan?” Gu Yang’s eyes shifted slightly.

”I’ve heard of this name Jing Lucheng before; he seems to be imprisoned by my Family in some place. Jing Yan, what is your relation to this Jing Lunnan? If you wish to save him, I could possibly help you,” the gleam in Gu Yang’s eyes intensified.

He felt he might indeed survive this. He sensed that the relationship between Jing Lunnan and Jing Yan must be significant, and if Jing Yan wished to save Jing Lunnan, sparing his own life would be the right choice.

”I’m unsatisfied with your answer, so die!”

Swoosh!

The Sword Light emerged, piercing through Gu Yang’s body.
