Ling Tian Sword God

"What, he still has a trump card?"

The watching warriors were completely numb. They felt they had never seen such a formidable young generation in their entire lives.

"Can Ling Chen win?"

The people of Divine Intent Sect already had their hearts in their throats. By this point, they could only hope for a miracle.

Young Master Ye roared. His aura expanded, surging and overwhelming. He seemed unchanged on the outside, yet he gave an illusion of endless elevation, as if standing tall enough to reach the sky.

It was as if a gigantic, kingly shadow formed by True Qi stood behind Young Master Ye.

"Night Demon Sky-covering Fist!"

This punch was the Night King's strongest killing move. Wielded by the giant-like Young Master Ye, it exploded with a force capable of crushing all things, sweeping through the Void.

As his words fell, Ling Chen completely immersed his mind in his own Sword Momentum. He was as tranquil as the surface of an ancient well, quietly accumulating a terrifying power. This gave a sense of the calm before the storm, the darkness before dawn.

Within his mind, each move of the Dragon Seeking Sword Technique flashed by, from the first move, Hidden Dragon in the Abyss, to the tenth move, Headless Group of Dragons. All of them replayed in a mere instant.

As Si Ye's Fist Strength exploded, Ling Chen finished accumulating his power and slashed diagonally with his sword.

"Dragon Seeking Sword Technique, ten forms merged, Slash!"

BOOM!

The Fist Strength and sword qi clashed fiercely, collapsing the entire Dueling platform. An enormous wave of Air Energy spread out, sweeping across.

Under everyone's gaze, a surprising scene occurred: Young Master Ye's Fist Strength was pierced by a single sword strike, rapidly collapsing and disintegrating.

"What?!"

His Fist Strength was pierced by a single sword strike, causing Young Master Ye's expression to change dramatically. Before he could react, the sword qi abruptly slashed past his eyes.

At the crucial moment, Young Master Ye instinctively dodged backward, avoiding the nearly fatal sword strike and retreating twenty meters away.

"What's going on?"

"Did he dodge it?"

Everyone stared with wide eyes. That sword strike seemed to have hit Young Master Ye, yet it also appeared as if he had managed to avoid it.

Only Ling Chen knew that his sword had indeed connected.

DRIP!

A drop of blood fell from Young Master Ye's face. Along with the blood, a Human Skin Mask, split in half, fluttered down.

"This is…"

Seeing the mask cut in half, Ling Chen's expression changed abruptly. He looked up instantly. Beneath the Human Skin Mask was a woman's face of breathtaking beauty. Moreover, this face was extremely familiar.

Her waterfall-like black hair cascaded over her shoulders, and combined with her strikingly beautiful face, she exuded an unparalleled charm.

"It's actually you?"

Ling Chen recognized the true face of "Young Master Ye." It was none other than the Demonic Woman from the Demonic Sect he had met at the Tienzong Ruins: Xia Ji, Xia Yunxin, the chief of the "Ten Outstanding Talents of the Demon Sect."

"You little brat, you've ruined my grand plan!"

A bloodstain, left by Ling Chen's earlier sword strike, still marked Xia Yunxin's face. She had never imagined that Ling Chen's sword qi would hit her and expose her identity.

"You, a member of the Demon Cult, dare to appear here?"

Ling Chen was even more astounded. Young Master Ye was Xia Yunxin! This Demonic Woman had assumed a different identity to participate in the Martial World Conference and had nearly won first place.

This woman was incredibly audacious and presumptuous.

The venue of the Martial World Conference was filled with countless Experts from the Martial World. Now that her true identity was exposed, she would undoubtedly face certain death.

The venue had already erupted into chaos.

"What happened? Young Master Ye is a woman?"

"Young Master Ye? That's Xia Ji from the Saint Witch Religion! So she was the one impersonating Young Master Ye!"

"How could this happen? Isn't this Demonic Woman seeking death? Daring to deceive and infiltrate right under the noses of so many Martial World stalwarts! Heavens, she was the champion of the previous Martial World Conference! Does this mean she fooled everyone last time too?"

The many young warriors were dumbfounded, too shocked to speak.

Just as Ling Chen had expected, several extremely powerful auras suddenly erupted from the audience, descending upon the Dueling platform.

Myriad Dao Sect Master Lu Youzhen, Divine Intent Sect Master Shentu Yan, and Sky Thunder Wandering Cultivator—three Top Sky Apex Strong—appeared one after another, their gazes fixed on Xia Yunxin.

"You audacious Demonic Woman, daring to sneak into the Martial World Conference! It seems you're tired of living."

Sky Thunder Wandering Cultivator glared at Xia Yunxin with killing intent. He was a man who despised evil and loathed Demonic Path Followers the most. Seeing a Demonic Path Follower infiltrate the Martial World Conference he was hosting, and even reach the finals, his killing intent surged.

If Xia Yunxin escaped from here, it would be the biggest disgrace of this Martial World Conference. He, Sky Thunder Wandering Cultivator, would also be shamed for allowing a Demonic Woman to slip in.

"Why waste words on a Demonic Woman? Just kill her," Lu Youzhen stated coldly.

"Killing her wouldn't be quite righteous. This little Demonic Woman holds a high position in the Saint Witch Religion. If we capture her and interrogate her thoroughly, there might be unexpected gains," Shentu Yan said with a faint smile.

Hearing the words of these three Top Sky Apex Strong, Xia Yunxin's pretty face showed no sign of panic. Instead, she flashed a brilliant smile. "You three are revered leaders of the Righteous Martial World, titans of the Martial World. Are you really going to attack a junior like me, a mere young woman?"

Hearing this, Lu Youzhen and Sky Thunder Wandering Cultivator, who were originally planning to act, hesitated. Indeed, if they were to take action, it would seem like they were bullying someone weaker and younger.

Moreover, the other party was just a young woman.

"Ling Chen, it would be beneath our dignity to act. You capture this Demonic Woman," Shentu Yan suddenly said, turning to Ling Chen.

"Reasonable. Ling Chen, you do it." Lu Youzhen and Sky Thunder Wandering Cultivator nodded in agreement. It was perfectly appropriate for Ling Chen to act.

"Me?"

Ling Chen's expression changed slightly as all three looked at him. After a moment's hesitation, he picked up his Cloud-hidden Sword and walked towards Xia Yunxin.

Although he had no personal feud with Xia Yunxin, the Righteous Path and the Demon Way were irreconcilable. He had to act.

"Ling Chen, my boy, to die by your sword would be far better than dying at the hands of those three." Xia Yunxin looked at Ling Chen with a smile, then her slender, jade-like fingers beckoned to him. "Come here. Before I die, I have something to tell you in private. It's about your mother. If you don't listen, you'll definitely regret it."

"Stop your scheming, Ling Chen! Don't listen to her!" Sky Thunder Wandering Cultivator roared.

This Demonic Woman is already a turtle in a jar. With three seniors here, she can't stir up any trouble.

Ling Chen was actually quite curious about what Xia Yunxin wanted to say, especially since it concerned Liu Xiling. Could it be related to the incident at the Divine Intent Sect two years ago?

Without hesitation, Ling Chen flashed forward and arrived in front of Xia Yunxin.

His current strength was on par with Xia Yunxin's. As long as he paid utmost attention, she wouldn't be able to ambush him.

Xia Yunxin rose on her tiptoes, her body shifting lightly. An extremely faint voice reached Ling Chen's ears,

"Do you still remember what I told you in the Demon Forest? I said we would definitely meet again."

"When you see me again, that will be when you are qualified to learn the truth."
