Chapter 48 - Ye Liangchen"s Trump Card
After being hit twice in a row, even someone as strong as Lin Xiu was severely injured. He spat out a mouthful of blood and climbed up from the ground with difficulty, almost losing his footing.
However, Ye Liangchen had no intention of stopping. He continued to move towards him.
"I…"
At this point, Lin Xiu clearly knew that it was impossible for him to defeat Ye Liangchen. The hidden force hidden at his throat had completely destroyed his ability to resist.
This hidden force might not be fatal, but it caused him to feel extremely uncomfortable, and he had to circulate his spirit energy to resist it at all times. If he didn"t do this, he would quickly slow down like he did just now and become an easy target.
Dammit! What kind of technique was this!?
Just as Lin Xiu was about to surrender unwillingly, he was shocked to discover that he could not speak at all!
.
"Hehe, do you want to surrender?"
Ye Liangchen grinned and said sinisterly, "I won"t agree to that."
"Uh… cough cough!"
Lin Xiu wanted to speak, but the pain in his throat made him cough continuously, unable to say anything.
Meanwhile, even the disciples below the arena had realized that something was wrong. Ye Liangchen clearly didn"t intend to let Lin Xiu off.
Bang!
Before everyone could recover from their shock, Ye Liangchen threw another punch that directly knocked Lin Xiu to the ground, and then he stepped on his face.
"Weren"t you very arrogant before?"
Ye Liangchen said mockingly, "Unfortunately, I have defeated you in front of all the disciples. This proves that Xiao Chixun"s choice was wrong."
As he spoke, Ye Liangchen bent down and raised his fist to strike at Lin Xiu"s stomach. He was actually intending to cripple Lin Xiu"s dantian!
"No! What are you doing?!"
Lin Xiu wildly roared in his heart, finally revealing a frightened expression. To a cultivator, losing his dantian was equivalent to becoming a cripple!
This was absolutely unacceptable to Lin Xiu!
Seeing that Ye Liangchen"s fist was about to land again, a hand suddenly grabbed Ye Liangchen"s fist. No matter how hard he tried, Ye Liangchen could not move an inch forward.
"Who is it?!"
Ye Liangchen"s expression changed slightly. He raised his head and saw that it was actually the referee.
"Enough is enough. You"ve already broken the rules."
The referee said calmly.
"What if I refuse to stop?" Ye Liangchen"s expression was cold.
He believed that with the talent he had displayed, the referee could not do anything to him.
After being provoked by a disciple, the referee"s eyes narrowed as he announced loudly, "The winner is Lin Xiu!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings went into an uproar!
"What happened? Didn"t Ye Liangchen win?"
"Hehe, you"re not familiar with the rule, right? You"re not allowed to break the rules during the sect compet.i.tion. Once you break the rules, all your achievements will be canceled immediately. This has always been the rule of the Xuanyi Mountain Sect."
Someone explained.
"Seriously?"
"Of course."
"Ah, then it looks like Ye Liangchen did all that for nothing."
"He deserved it. He deserved it."
"…"
On the other hand, Ye Liangchen was stunned when he heard this. He questioned, "On what basis?"
"I already warned you that you broke the rules."
The referee said indifferently.
"You"re obviously targeting me!"
Ye Liangchen said in a low voice, "Why didn"t you stand forward when he made a move just now? But now, you"re protecting him!"
The referee: "???"
What are you talking about? Weren"t the two of you sparring normally just now? If you hadn"t broken the rules, I wouldn"t have stood forward either.
"As expected, the climax is coming."
Qin Jue smiled. The plot he expected to see had finally happened. Will he break off relations with the Xuanyi Mountain Sect and then flee for thousands of kilometers before finally leading a large group of experts to make a comeback?
Taking a deep breath, the referee enunciated each word clearly. "Because you broke the rules, no matter what the outcome of the match is, you will automatically be disqualified."
"Bulls.h.i.+t! You"re clearly targeting me!" Ye Liangchen gritted his teeth and said.
The referee was speechless.
Is this guy an idiot? Can"t he understand what I"m saying?
"Listen, you…"
"I won"t listen, I won"t listen!"
Ye Liangchen shook his head repeatedly.
For some reason, the referee suddenly wanted to kill the youth in front of him, in such a way that not even his ashes would remain.
Right at this moment, Ye Liangchen"s eyes flashed as he swiftly pa.s.sed the judge and punched towards Lin Xiu who had just gotten up.
"How dare you!"
On the high platform, a wave of spirit energy swept over and slapped Ye Liangchen, directly pus.h.i.+ng him out of the arena.
"Heavens, it"s the First Elder!"
The entire place fell silent. No one dared to say anything else.
"Hmph, you"re so young, but you"re so vicious."
The First Elder took a step forward and arrived on the arena. He asked Lin Xiu, "Are you alright?"
Lin Xiu wanted to answer, but he opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
Seeing this, the First Elder casually waved his hand, and a layer of light mist immediately appeared in the air. It transformed into droplets of rain that merged into Lin Xiu"s body. Soon, Lin Xiu sensed the intense pain in his throat quickly disappearing.
"Thank you, First Elder. I"m fine."
Lin Xiu said in pleasant surprise.
Originally, the injuries on his body would need at least half a month to recover, but under the nourishment of the First Elder"s spirit energy, he had recovered by more than half in the blink of an eye. How could Lin Xiu not be happy?
"Alright."
The First Elder nodded and looked at Ye Liangchen who was nearby. "Ye Liangchen, are you aware of your crimes?"
Faced with the First Elder"s question, Ye Liangchen was neither servile nor overbearing. "What a joke. What crime did I commit?"
"You clearly already won, but you still want to forcefully cripple your fellow disciple"s cultivation. Do you know that you have already broken our sect"s rules?!"
"Hehe, the strong prey on the weak. Since he can humiliate me, why can"t I cripple him?"
Ye Liangchen was indifferent.
In his opinion, he had already shown mercy by not trying to kill Lin Xiu.
"Ridiculous!"
The First Elder shouted angrily, "Originally, on account of your decent talent, as long as you"re willing to admit your mistake, we were prepared to let you off the hook. But you"re too much!"
"If you want to condemn someone, you"ll always find a way to do so. Is this how the Xuanyi Mountain Sect treats their disciples?!"
Ye Liangchen was fearless as he confronted the First Elder.
"d.a.m.n, is this guy crazy?"
"Idiot, no one can save him now."
"The First Elder is known for being strict. Previously, there was a person who violated the sect"s rules and has been doing odd jobs in the outer sect for thirty years!"
"…"
Everyone discussed in low voices. Some were shocked, some were gloating. They were all waiting for the First Elder to do something.
"Alright, very well!"
The First Elder laughed from extreme anger and said, "Ye Liangchen, you deliberately injured a disciple of the same sect with sinister intentions. You have broken the 132th sect rule of the Xuanyi Mountain Sect. Someone, capture him and send him to the cave to face the wall for three months!"
"Hehe, in that case, there"s no need for me to stay any longer. Why don"t you just kick me out of the Xuanyi Mountain Sect?"
After saying this, Ye Liangchen turned around and walked out of the square without hesitation.
He had only treated this place as a stepping stone to greater heights to begin with, and he did not have the slightest reluctance to leave.
"Stop! Where do you think this is? Do you think you can come and go as you please?"
Two mentors immediately blocked Ye Liangchen"s path. They split into two sides and prepared to capture him.
"If I want to leave, no one can stop me!"
Ye Liangchen roared as his aura suddenly rose, and he actually instantly broke through from the Yellow Stage!
At the same time, Qin Jue yawned. Was this guy finally going to reveal his trump card?
