The Prodigies War-Novel

Chapter 1323 Like a Legend

“Lin Xun won!” said Imperial Son Shaohao with a soft sigh.

A hint of shock still lingered in his mind and couldn’t be dispelled. As he recalled the duel, he looked at Lin Xun with an indescribable light in his eyes.

“It’s a pity that Yun Qingbai, who was like a great sun in the sky, has fallen forever. The Ancient Wasteland Domain will feel much quieter without his presence,” murmured Fairy Ruowu, her eyes like water and her figure like smoke.

It was indeed too much of a pity.

Without this duel, Yun Qingbai, with his attainments in the Way of the Sword, would have been bound to rise and become a supreme Sword Saint of the ages!

Sadly, he had fallen today.

“After this, no one can suppress Lin Xun’s momentum anymore. And I’m afraid that...no one can reach his height in the future...”

Even apex characters like Ye Mohe, Mi Hengzhen, Wang Xuanyu, and Chi Lingxiao had mixed feelings in their hearts!

The duel was unprecedented in the ages, and Yun Qingbai’s fall was a stepping stone that would bring Lin Xun’s stature to an unprecedented height.

Not to mention suppressing him, it would be difficult to catch up with him in the future!

Therefore, it was natural for the dominant figures who were also on the supreme longevity path to have mixed feelings.

No one wanted to admit that they were inferior!

However, looking at Lin Xun at this moment, they knew that the pressure would be unprecedented if they were to face off against him.

“He won!”

Toady, A’lu, and the big black bird were all emotional and beaming with joy, happy for Lin Xun’s victory like it was their own.

No one knew more than them how long Lin Xun had waited for this day. As the saying went: Ten years of sharpening a sword to settle a grudge one day!

“Yun Qingbai actually lost...” Mo Tianhe was in a trance.

“What, you wanted him to win?” said Ji Xingyao coldly.

Mo Tianhe was flustered. He hurriedly said, “How could that be?! I’m just lamenting that such a supreme sword cultivator has fallen here. It just feels like a dream.”

Hearing this, Xiao Qinghe, Yue Jianming, Ye Chen, and Xiao Cangtian also sighed emotionally.

Yun Qingbai had been a dazzling and unrivaled existence in the Ancient Wasteland Domain, dominating the younger generation and suppressing his peers to the point they couldn’t raise their heads.

They often said that being in the same era as Yun Qingbai was undoubtedly a great misfortune, because no matter how hard one tried, one could only be a shadow under his halo.

But now, Yun Qingbai was defeated and had fallen forever...

Who wouldn’t feel emotional?

“And that’s precisely why it only enhances Lin Xun’s invincibility!” commented Le Caiwei with a smile as her eyes rippled with a strange light.

“They only see your splendor today. I’m probably the only one who knows how much blood and sweat you’ve put in since you were young,” Bai Lingxi murmured in her heart as she stood among the distant crowd.

She still remembered joining the Blood Kill Camp and grinding together with Lin Xun. At that time, who could have predicted that the teenager from a rural village would blossom with such invincible sharpness in the Upper Nine Realms?

The empire was small in the vast Ancient Wasteland Domain.

Lin Xun had risen from there, and in the future, he would be famous throughout the entire world!

In the far distance, the big crowd who had been watching the duel had completely frozen in shock, unable to utter a sound.

Their eyes glazed over as they stared at the figure in the sky, their hearts stirring in a landslide of emotions.

Before the duel, Yun Qingbai had been unanimously favored. No matter how highly they had regarded Lin Xun, they had never expected that even Yun Qingbai’s final sacrifice to his sword would still have failed against him...

Lin Xun became the final winner! New chaptᴇrs are published on novelenglish.net . ꜰɪre.nᴇt

This result was unexpected and caught them off guard.

They found it unbelievable and unfathomable.

It was like a legend!

Meanwhile, those who were hostile toward Lin Xun looked like they were mourning deaths and their souls had wandered off. Even Yun Qingbai lost... Who else could be a match for that demon?

Whoosh!

Lin Xun swiftly descended from the sky.

“Congratulations, Brother Lin,” said Imperial Son Shaohao with a smile.

For a while, those who were acquainted with Lin Xun like Mi Hengzhen, Chi Lingxiao, Mo Tianhe, Ji Xingyao, and Le Caiwei all came over to congratulate him.

On the other hand, Toady, A’lu, and the big black bird were vigilant as they stood protectively around Lin Xun to ensure nothing unexpected would happen.

“Don’t let your guard down, Lin Xun. While you killed Yun Qingbai, the big battle left you seriously injured and at great risk. If someone takes advantage of this and makes a move, then the consequences will be very serious.”

A voice resounded between heaven and earth.

It appeared to be a reminder, but when it was so loud and heard by everyone present, it clearly harbored ill intentions.

At that moment, many people’s gazes flickered.

That’s right, Demon God Lin has just gone through an incredibly grueling duel, and even though he won, it’s gotta be a pyrrhic victory. He must be severely injured and depleted right now.

In short, he’s in his weakest state right after the big battle. If someone intends to stir up trouble...

Then this is definitely the best time to kill Demon God Lin!

“Seeking death!” Toady was furious, “Spreading your evil intentions and sowing discord? Do you dare to show yourself, you cowardly dog?!”

At the same time, Lin Xun’s friends all spread their spirit senses and searched.

Lin Xun’s expression was unperturbed, not at all surprised as he had experienced similar situations many times before.

“My advice was out of goodwill, how did it become sowing discord and spreading evil intentions? Of course, even if Lin Xun can leave peacefully this time, he must still be careful. It won’t be long before the Ultimate Inheritance Land emerges, and if he is too heavily wounded, then I’m afraid a lot of dangers will arise.”

When the voice resounded again, the crowd could finally see the speaker. It was a black-clothed, red-eyed youth with a chilling aura.

“Gou Yanba from the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan!” someone called out upon recognizing him.

This triggered a clamor in the area. Many people knew that Lin Xun had started a feud with this clan when he had been in the West Infinity World.

And in the East Victory World, he had intruded into the Black Nightmare Sky Dog Clan’s mountain with a mysterious Saint woman, killing and plundering them, which had shocked the whole world.

“Heh, he’s really a dog!” A’lu spat.

The onlookers revealed strange expressions. Gou Yanba really has some guts to provoke Demon God Lin at a time like this. Is he not scared at all?

Gou Yanba ignored the strange gazes around him and said loudly, “I believe that many people here don’t want to see you completely recover, Lin Xun, because that means they’ll have no chance with the mysterious Saint’s Guide if you participate in the competition at the Ultimate Inheritance Land.”

A single sentence caused many faces to change colors.

The implication was too obvious. A severely injured Demon God Lin wouldn’t be much of a threat even if he participated in the Ultimate Inheritance Land competition, but a fully recovered Demon God Lin would give them next to no chance with the fortune!

After all, even Yun Qingbai was not his match. Who else could suppress him?

Anyone who planned to participate in the Ultimate Inheritance Land competition would have to take this matter into consideration.

When Gou Yanba said something like this at this moment, he was not just harboring evil intentions. He was obviously inciting everyone to target Lin Xun!

Lin Xun was currently at his weakest, so if he could be taken care of immediately, then they would be rid of one of the strongest future rivals!

No one among the cultivators present were stupid as they had been able to survive all these years of intense competition in the Supreme Realm. They instantly got the idea, and their expressions flickered in contemplation.

Lin Xun frowned. Gou Yanba’s words were absolutely insidious, aiming to kill without seeing blood!

At this moment, Imperial Son Shaohao suddenly moved. He appeared in front of Gou Yanba in a flash and grabbed the latter’s head. With a poof, Gou Yanba couldn’t even react when his head was removed!

Blood gushed out like a spring from the headless neck, shocking the whole field.

“Trying to temp the masses with demonic words, he must be punished!” Shaohao’s expression was cold, and his eyes were like piercing bolts as they scanned the crowd. “Those who aren’t convinced can step out and fight Lin Xun fair and square. It’s despicable to use such underhanded tactics!”

His words resounded loudly and clearly.

Coupled with the fact that Shaohao was an extremely powerful overlord, the atmosphere became dense and serious when he spoke.

Lin Xun smiled wordlessly and glanced fleetingly at Shaohao.

“Come, come! Whoever is not convinced, just come forward!” shouted Toady with a murderous expression.

The big black bird and A’lu also looked unfriendly.

“That’s right. Come!” Xiao Qinghe, Chi Lingxiao, Ji Xingyao, Mo Tianhe, Ye Chen, Xiao Cangtian, and Le Caiwei also stepped forward one after another.

Seeing this, the crowd trembled.

Lin Xun alone was already powerful beyond despair. However, among those who stood by his side, which one wasn’t a dominating, supreme genius?

Who would dare to act rashly when such a group of ruthless characters was standing in front of Lin Xun?

Moreover, Imperial Son Shaohao had also made his attitude clear. Whoever went against Lin Xun at this moment would be asking for their own death!

“The Ultimate Inheritance Land is a competition for true heaven prides. Only those whose names have appeared on the Genius Gold Rankings are qualified to participate,” Fairy Ruowu suddenly spoke, her voice light but clear. “Those titled heaven pride should be able to live up to it. When resorting to underhanded means out of fear and apprehension, one is simply not worthy of being called a heaven pride.”

With that, she drifted away.

Immediately after that, the crowd started to disperse. If they stayed any longer, they would probably be seen as having ill intentions toward Lin Xun.

On this day, the news about the duel between Lin Xun and Yun Qingbai cut through the Upper Nine Realms like a bolt of lightning.

Those who had not come to witness it were thrown into a great shock.

Demon God Lin had won!

He had defeated Yun Qingbai, the number one sword cultivator of the generation!

It was said that Yun Qingbai had sacrificed himself to the sword at the last moment, but had still failed to escape his demise, whereas Demon God Lin, although heavily injured, had left peacefully and completely unobstructed under the attention of the crowd!

The meaning behind it all was so obvious that no one could remain calm.
