Chapter 10: Chapter 10: One Sword Kills!
However, faced with Su Qingxue's sword, Lin Yi remained expressionless.
He suddenly drew the treasure sword from his waist, and a desperate momentum burst forth from his body!
Whoosh!
Under the gaze of all those eyes, Lin Yi slashed his sword toward Su Qingxue!
Life-stealing Three Swords, the first move: One Sword Kills!
"Seeking death!"
A cold smile suddenly curled up at the corner of Su Wushi's mouth.
Daring to contend head-on with Su Qingxue's Heavenly Stage Sword Technique!
Was this not seeking death?
Clang!
In the blink of an eye, two flashes of sword light collided fiercely on the Life and Death Platform!
Accompanied by a piercing metallic explosion.
The next instant, a shocking scene unfolded!
Because the one sent flying from the Life and Death Platform was not the overmatched Lin Yi.
It was Su Qingxue!
She flew off the platform, sword and all, as a gush of fresh blood spurted skyward!
"This is impossible!"
Su Wushi, his heart violently convulsing, watched as Su Qingxue was sent flying from the Life and Death Platform.
Around the platform, the crowd of onlookers were left dumbstruck as statues!
Su Qingxue, after all, was an Anomaly-Level genius!
Defeated just like that?
"How could this be?"
Elder Song Que's face turned ashen; even after using the Heavenly Stage Sword Technique, she still lost?
However, just as everyone sank into shock, Lin Yi on the Life and Death Platform didn't stop there; instead, he directly leaped down and swung his sword to finish Su Qingxue!
"Presumptuous!"
At that moment, Su Wushi burst forth in fury, charging down from the stands and struck a palm toward Lin Yi.
Lin Yi, ready for it, immediately changed direction, cleaving his sword toward Su Wushi.
Boom!
Sword and palm met, exploding on impact, and sent both Lin Yi and Su Wushi recoiling.
"Boy, have you secretly taken some drugs?"
Su Wushi glared at Lin Yi, stern on his face, "You've lost your Dantian, how can you still possess such tremendous strength?"
"How do you know I've lost my Dantian?"
Lin Yi sneered.
Su Wushi's face changed.
Unexpectedly, those surrounding gazes were all focused on him.
All revealing a hint of doubt.
"Yes, how did Lin Yi lose his Dantian? Even I didn't know about this, how did you?"
Lin Zhe asked in a heavy voice.
Just as Su Wushi was about to fabricate an excuse, Lin Yi had already stolen the thread of conversation, "Family Head, let me tell you!"
"Because my Nine Acupoint Dantian was dug out by Su Wushi and his dog-like daughter, Su Qingxue!"
"This dog-like father and daughter not only dug out my Dantian but also pinned a filthy stigma upon me. They are utterly conscienceless, shameless to the extreme!"
With these words, the scene instantly burst into uproar!
"What, Lin Yi was slandered, and he is the real victim?"
"The Su Family is a case of a thief crying 'stop thief'; they are the real culprits who carved out Lin Yi's Dantian!"
"Good heavens, how could there be such venomed hearts in this world?"
"..."
For a moment, many people's perspective on Su Qingxue underwent a drastic change.
"So, did Su Qingxue become an Anomaly-Level genius by transplanting Lin Yi's Nine Acupoint Dantian?"
The Seventh Princess glanced at Su Qingxue not far away, lightly shook her head, then turned to look at Elder Song Que nearby, "Elder Song, with such unscrupulous conduct, does the Imperial Capital Martial Arts Academy still intend to admit her?"
Elder Song Que's face had already wrinkled like a chrysanthemum, but then his gaze shifted, "These are merely Lin Yi's unilateral assertions, how can we believe them?"
"Qing Xue is kind-hearted, City Lord Su is honorable and respectable; how could they commit such conscienceless deeds?"
"It's merely a story concocted by Lin Yi to destroy Su Qingxue, to destroy the Su Family."
Of course, deep down, Elder Song Que was well aware that what Lin Yi said could very well be true.
But he couldn't admit it.
Their Imperial Capital Martial Arts Academy couldn't possibly give up Su Qingxue, such an Anomaly Level genius.
As for Lin Yi, a boy whose Dantian was already gone, even if he defied the heavens now, how far could he go?
He would probably never enter the Grandmaster Realm in his lifetime.
Such a person was of no value to their Martial Arts Academy.
Hearing the boiling discussion around him, Su Wushi's ferociousness was fully revealed, his expression was fierce, "Nonsense!"
"Boy, you dare to spew blood and slander my Su Family, come, execute this boy on the spot!"
"Stop."
Just then, from the VIP seats, the Seventh Princess suddenly spoke up, "The life-and-death duel has ended, are you all intending to start a brawl right here?"
"Su Wushi, do you have no regard for me?"
"I wouldn't dare!"
As soon as the Seventh Princess spoke up, Su Wushi immediately shrank back.
He might be a powerful Qing City Lord in the small place of Qing City, but on the entire stage of Shi Country, he was nothing!
How could he defy a Princess of Shi Country?
Especially the renowned Seventh Princess.
"I haven't lost yet!"
Just then, a voice filled with resentment suddenly rang out, and soon they saw Su Qingxue shakily stand up, that lovely face now distorting somewhat.
"Qingxue, enough!"
Elder Song Que descended from the stands, "Return to the Imperial Capital Martial Arts Academy with me!"
Then, he whispered to Su Qingxue, "As long as the green hills are there, there will be no lack of firewood."
"The Martial Arts Academy is the number one force in Shi Country, and with your talent, it won't be long before you leave that boy far behind!"
"When the time comes, killing him will be as easy as flipping your hand over, why rush at this moment?"
Su Qingxue then regained a lot of clarity.
That's right!
She had the Nine Acupoint Dantian and was an Anomaly Level genius, utterly surpassing Lin Yi in talent!
As for Lin Yi, who knows what sort of cheating method he used to soar to the Spirit Transformation Realm in just seven days, probably with significant side effects.
And without a Dantian, Lin Yi's limit was the Spirit Transformation Realm!
Once she broke through to the Grandmaster Realm, killing Lin Yi would be as simple as killing a dog, wouldn't it?
"Lin Yi, I will make you pay back a hundredfold for today's humiliation!"
"Next time, I will personally take your head!"
A chilling intent surged in Su Qingxue's eyes.
"If it weren't for the old heads of the Martial Arts Academy protecting you, you would have already become a ghost under my sword, what face do you have to bark here in such disarray?"
Lin Yi sneered coldly.
"You!"
Su Qingxue was so furious that her chest heaved violently.
"Never mind him, let's go!"
Elder Song Que just cast an unfriendly glance at Lin Yi, then left with Su Qingxue.
"Lin Yi."
At that moment, a voice as clear as a silver bell suddenly came from the side.
Lin Yi looked toward the sound, only to see an exquisitely beautiful woman in white walking over.
It was the Seventh Princess of Shi Country.
"Princess."
Lin Yi bowed respectfully to the Seventh Princess, "Just now, thank you for your help, Princess."
Lin Yi could feel the goodwill emanating from this Seventh Princess.
A personage of such stature, he couldn't afford to offend her right now, if he could make a connection, then he would.
"It's a trivial matter."
The Seventh Princess waved her hand and smiled, "You've offended the elders of the Martial Arts Academy, what are your plans for the future?"
Unexpectedly, Lin Yi didn't regret it one bit, "The world is vast, there's nowhere I can't go, why cling to the Martial Arts Academy?"
"Well said."
The Seventh Princess nodded slightly, then flipped her Jade Hand, taking out a Jade Token that floated in front of Lin Yi, "If you have no plans, you may come to the Imperial City to find me, I can introduce you."
Lin Yi received the Jade Token, then cupped his fists, "Thank you!"
"Gold will shine no matter where it is!"
"See you in the Imperial City!"
With that said, the Seventh Princess turned and left with her entourage.
