Chapter 1240 Eradicate (2)

"What!?" Yin Fu's eyes were full of surprise when he heard this. "How did it happen?"

The black eagle quickly explained. "When our army was about to press forward, countless sword beams came from the sky and wiped us out entirely. Even General Hu couldn't resist it."

"I can't see the other party, but this person's strength is even more terrifying than any Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm experts I have ever seen."

"Sword beams?" Yin Jian frowned slightly. "Could it be an expert from the Heavenly Sword Palace?"

"It shouldn't be." Yin Yue interjected. "From the beginning, they have never moved toward the south for once. It's even more unlikely for them to make a move now. Moreover, we have eyeliners kept an eye on them. They should have notified us by now."

He looked at the black eagle and said with a frown. "Although Hu Jing isn't strong, his speed is impressive enough to escape. Did he truly die in a single strike?"

The black eagle shook its head and said. "General Hu managed to escape the first strike, but he later got squeezed into a pulp by a strange spatial attack. I was too afraid to stay further and quickly rushed over without checking it."

"Bastard! Why did you run away?" Yin Fu snarled angrily at the black eagle, causing the latter to shudder.

Yin Yue raised his hand and said. "Calm down. He made the right decision… With that person's strength, he would certainly die if he were slower, and we would be clueless."

"Hmph!" Yin Fu snorted coldly. "Let me meet that bastard by myself. I want to see what kind of onion he is to make a sneak attack on our people."

Yin Yue shook his head but didn't stop Yin Fu. He thought for a moment and said. "We should report our Master."

Yin Jian's brows raised slightly. In his opinion, they could handle it by themselves. There was no need to contact their Master at all. However, he didn't say anything in the end.

On the skyship, Yun Lintian listened to the conversation with a thoughtful expression.

From Qing Xiaoting's words, these powerful beasts didn't take the initiative to attack unless a Divine Ascending Tribulation Realm expert on the human side did first… Looked like it was because they were waiting for Yin Weizhe to come out as he had expected.

"Why don't we kill them all, Big Brother Yun?" Sitting on a small chair, Qingqing asked innocently while nibbling on a rice cake.

Yun Lintian smiled and said. "They will die, but let's wait first. Big brother wants to see their Master."

Qingqing tilted her head slightly and took another rice cake out, continuing to nibble it while looking at the three people in the distance.

"Hmm?" Suddenly, Yin Yue seemed to perceive something and looked in Yun Lintian's direction.

"What's wrong?" Yin Fu asked while spreading his Spiritual Sense out. However, he found nothing in the end.

Yin Yue didn't reply. He got up and said calmly. "I know you are there. Why don't you show yourself?"

Yun Lintian was surprised upon seeing this scene. From the look of it, he believed that Yin Yue had indeed perceived his presence. This was a bit unexpected.

"Eh? How did she see us?" Qingqing asked confusedly.

"That's a man." Yun Lintian corrected her. "Since that's the case. There's no need to hide anymore."

As he spoke, he dispelled the stealth mode of the skyship.

When the skyship appeared in everyone's sight, Yin Fu and Yin Jian were startled. They didn't even know that such a huge ship was hiding around them for all this time.

Yin Yue looked at Linlin, Qingqing, and then Yun Lintian. "Are you the one who killed our army?"

Yun Lintian replied calmly. "It's me."

"So it's you! Come here!" Yin Fu snarled. His aura burst forth as he made a grasping motion, trying to pull Yun Lintian over.

"Hmph! Bad guy!" Qingqing snorted in dissatisfaction. She waved her hand, and a powerful windstorm immediately appeared in the air, sweeping several profound beasts below while rushing toward Yin Fu and the others.

Yin Fu's pupils shrank when he saw this. A huge hammer appeared in his hand as he smashed it toward the incoming windstorm.

The space before the windstorm was torn apart by the invisible force from the hammer. However, it couldn't stop the storm.

On the side, Yin Jian grabbed the sword's hilt with his right hand, and his aura abruptly burst out as soon as he unsheathed the sword.

A terrifying sword intent shot out and successfully cut the windstorm in half.

"I didn't expect to see a sword practitioner among the profound beasts." Yun Lintian took a deep look at Yin Jian.

Although his realm of the sword's path wasn't as high as Qing Xiaoting's, he could see how extraordinary Yin Jian's sword intent was. If Yin Jian was placed among humans, he could be considered among the top five sword practitioners in the world.

"I heard that you used a sword beam to kill our army. Can you show me?" Yin Jian said while calmly holding the sword. His body was relaxed as if there was no enemy in front of him.

Yun Lintian nodded and said. "Be careful."

He then pointed his finger toward Yin Jian. His eyes lit up with golden flames as a golden sword beam shot out of the tip of his finger, cutting through space and arriving before Yin Jian.

Yin Jian's eyes narrowed slightly. His wrist shook as he swung the sword upward to meet the incoming sword beam.

BOOOM!

Two sword intents clashed, producing a massive explosion to sweep everyone nearby away.

At the same time, Yin Jian was sent flying backward several kilometers before heavily smashing onto the ground. A bloody hole could be seen in his chest as blood flowed out like a leaking water bucket.

Silence blanketed the entire space as everyone on Yin Jian's side didn't expect this result. Just a casual strike from Yun Lintian could actually defeat Yin Jian… What the hell was this?

Yin Fu, who was angry earlier, turned pale when he saw this scene. His strength might be superior to Yin Jian when it came to defense, but he didn't think he could resist the earlier strike.

Meanwhile, Yin Yue stared deeply at Yun Lintian with a heavy heart. He seemed to think of someone as he said. "Are you perhaps… Yun Lintian?"

Yun Lintian nodded slightly. "I am."
