Chapter 156: Xin Yi’s Missing
This final result was entirely outside of anyone’s expectations.
From Lin Tian taking the upper hand to Lu Xuan suddenly exploding out, and then Lin Tian arriving at death’s door, and finally Lu Xuan by virtue of his powerful strength forcefully changing his move, resolving the crisis. Although it had only been a mont, there had been many twists and turns up to that point.
Words couldn’t express how brilliant it was.
But no matter how it occurred, the final result was already very clear. Lin Tian’s defeat, Lu Xuan’s victory!
As Lu Xuan slowly recovered his strength, Lin Tian also recovered and walked before him.
“Thank you for your rcy. I lost. I am entirely convinced!”
Currently, Lin Tian’s vision looking at Lu Xuan was already changed to one of admiration. Whether it was Lu Xuan’s strength or actions, they had all completely conquered him.
Lu Xuan smiled. With this bit of ti to recover, his face already was no longer so pale and a bit of red had returned. Tai Yi Yuan Return Tactic’s valiance was apparent.
“You’re also not bad. Just now, this sword was already my strongest sword stroke.”
Hearing this, Lin Tian revealed a bitter smile and shook his head: “No need to comfort . Although before the fight I had thought I had a chance of defeating you, I hadn’t thought that I would lose so miserably. After exhausting my strength, I still couldn’t see your quick sword. That is truly regrettable.”
Previously, after he had lost the qi aura competition, although Lin Tian still challenged Lu Xuan, in reality, he had already prepared his heart for defeat, however, he had speculated that if he exhausted all of his strength, then he should be at least able to force out Lu Xuan’s true strength. He hadn’t imagined that the two’s distance would be so large!
Without needing to use the quick sword, with just a heavy sword, Lu Xuan had been able to defeat him. Speaking truthfully, Lin Tian did have a sense of frustration in his heart.
Up until now, he had been a self-proclaid genius, especially during this period of ti. First he had reached peak body refining seventh level and then he had even reached entry level sword intent, but in the following fight, Lu Xuan had ti after ti given him unreserved blows to his confidence.
First was using sword intent to completely envelop and suppress him, and then without using sword intent, with only a contest of strength, Lu Xuan was actually still able to defeat him while hiding his strength.
“There are people beyond people, heavens beyond heavens. This ti’s defeat isn’t necessarily a bad thing. In the future, don’t act as if there’s no one that can et your eyes.” Elder Lin lectured Lin Tian. Most likely after going through it, this fight would stimulate Lin Tian’s motivation. That arrogant descendant also should be reeled in a bit. This was the exact result Elder Lin had been hoping for.
Lin Tian did not refute it, submissively nodding his head. Truthfully, there was nothing to deny right now. Looking at Lu Xuan, he said: “In the future, I won’t slack at all. Although my chances of defeating you will beco more and more uncertain, but I still want to be able to witness your quick sword by the great sect competition.”
Saying this, Lin Tian took a deep look at Lu Xuan then turned around and left. The fight was already over. There was no reason to stay. He couldn’t just shalessly challenge him again.
Seeing Lin Tian walk off the stage, his followers hurriedly caught up and wanted to comfort Lin Tian, however, Lin Tian only waved his hand at them and said: “In the future, you don’t need to follow .”
When Lin Tian said this, those followers were dumbstruck. They didn’t know what stimulus Lin Tian had received to have such a big change. However, Lin Tian naturally wouldn’t care about what they thought. He left by himself.
After Lin Tian left the field, the crowd of observing disciples imdiately burst out in discussion.
“Haha, Lu Xuan won! He won too thoroughly! 1.5 betting stakes, ah! I earned a huge profit!” A disciple that had bought into Lu Xuan’s win currently was dancing about, beside himself with joy.
“I hadn’t thought Lin Tian would actually be defeated. Higher than Lu Xuan by a level and still lost. Isn’t he a bit too useless?” A disciple that had bet on Lin Tian’s victory was full of complaints.
“What ‘too useless’. Did you not see Lin Tian’s attack just now? If you have so ability, how about you take two moves? It can only be said that Lu Xuan’s strength is too strong. Just thinking about it is terrifying. Body refining sixth level and able to defeat peak body refining seventh level Lin Tian. Once the great sect competition cos around, then isn’t it over? The way I see it, this ti Xu Wen Yang’s number one place most likely will be in danger.”
…
As they were talking, these observing disciples each began to leave the field. Quite a few of them went directly to the Equipnt Pavilion, already impatient to claim their betting wins.
As for those overall rankings top ten disciples, they also silently left the field. This fight gave them quite a shock. Just the strength Lin Tian had shown was enough to give them a sense of danger. As for the even stronger Lu Xuan, although none of them said it, if they had placed themselves in Lin Tian’s position and asured themselves, they had to admit that even they would only have defeat as their result.
Among the top ten disciples, the only ones who didn’t move were Cheng Wang and Mo Xiao Chen. Their eyes were a bit out of focus, as if they were still looking back at the fight just now, at the twists and turns at the very end.
His out of focus eyes gradually returned to normal, Cheng Wang suddenly asked: “Senior brother Mo, what do you think your odds of victory are if you were to fight Lu Xuan right now?”
Mo Xiao Chen’s eyes narrowed. Pondering over it for a while, he slowly returned: “If going from the strength Lu Xuan just displayed, I have an 80% of victory, but if you add on his sword intent, and then add on his quick sword which he didn’t show, then I’m afraid it’s about a fifty-fifty.”
Hearing this, Cheng Wang felt a bit of horror. Didn’t that an, right now Lu Xuan’s strength was already able to compete with Mo Xiao Chen’s? However, thinking about it, that was normal. To be able to defeat peak body refining seventh level Lin Tian under the circumstances of hiding his strength Lu Xuan indeed was eligible to fight with Mo Xiao Chen.
Only… Lu Xuan was just body refining sixth level. Based on his improvent speed, once it was the great sect competition, he’d definitely have improved substantially. That would an at that ti…
Thinking of this, Cheng Wang couldn’t help but turn his head and glance at Mo Xiao Chen, but didn’t dare to bring it up.
Just as he was preparing to leave, Cheng Wang seed to have thought of sothing again. Once again he turned to Mo Xiao Chen and asked: “Senior brother Mo, then what are your chances of beating Xu Wen Yang?”
Listening to Cheng Wang’s question, Mo Xiao Chen’s face revealed a disdainful expression: “Xu Wen Yang? Right now I have a 70% chance or so. Wait until the next great sect competition, he’ll be defeated without a doubt!”
Saying this, Mo Xiao Chen no longer stuck around and directly turned around and left, only giving Cheng Wang an image of him carrying a long spear across his back, cold and proud.
Currently, Cheng Wang was still mulling over Mo Xiao Chen’s words. Defeated without a doubt. Didn’t that an he would have a 100% chance of victory?
Shaking his head, he didn’t entertain anymore foolish thoughts and similarly left. Presently, no matter if it was Mo Xiao Chen or Xu Wen Yang, or even Lu Xuan who was standing in front of him, most likely he already wasn’t their opponents.
“Lu Xuan, the shock you gave us three old n in this fight was really too much, however, although your heavy sword has been practiced to a very good place, I still want to advise you that the heavy sword is only a branch of the sword dao. Do not attend to the trivialities and neglect the fundantals, pursuing power and discarding the sword’s essence.” Elder Cheng sincerely and earnestly lectured.
Lu Xuan nodded: “Disciple understands. The reason disciple learned the heavy sword was to allow my quick sword’s abilities to make even further progress.”
“Hmm, so it was like that. Then I can relax. Having taken advantage of Lin Tian giving you so many moves, I imagine that you must have comprehended quite a bit from this fight. Go back and properly perceive it.”
As Elder Cheng said this, Lu Xuan revealed a smile, evidently, his goal had already been seen through.
Finished speaking, the three elders also left the field. The noisy sword faction field began to recover its normal peace and quiet.
Waiting until the three elders had left, Xia Ye and Xing Feng then ca up. The two had faces filled with excitent. The fight between Lu Xuan and Lin Tian just now had been too praiseworthy! Too stimulating! Too enjoyable!
And the strength that Lu Xuan had displayed had also shaken the two of them.
“Good kid, you have yours! Defeating Lin Tian, you’re now an overall standings top ten existence. I wasted my worries that you had gotten injured and wouldn’t be able to exert your strength. I hadn’t thought you would be able to fight so well!” Xia Ye chuckled.
However, his words confused Lu Xuan a bit. Injured? When did I get injured?
Ignoring Xia Ye’s nonsense, Lu Xuan asked next: “How co it’s only you two. How about Xin Yi? Didn’t she co here early?”
To Lu Xuan’s clueless question, Xia Ye was also perplexed and said: “I was just about to ask you. Weren’t you injured earlier and had soone send for Xin Yi to go to the Equipnt Pavilion to take care of you? How co you ca, but she didn’t co?”
To Xia Ye’s words, Lu Xuan’s face instantly beca serious. He realized sothing was wrong. He said in a heavy voice: “I never got injured and didn’t send anyone to get Xin Yi. I ca back directly from the back mountain.”
Lu Xuan’s response made Xia Ye’s heart suddenly drop. He quickly looked towards Xing Feng. Both of their faces beca grim at the sa ti. They weren’t dumb. Hearing Lu Xuan say this, a wave of a bad premonition ca about.
Seeing their expressions, Lu Xuan heart suddenly dropped. Sothing happened!
He reached out and grabbed Xia Ye’s shoulder and said: “Quick, tell what’s going on. Tell everything from the start!”
Unable to handle the pain from Lu Xuan grabbing his shoulder, Xia Ye didn’t dare to be neglectful and spoke quickly about everything from the start.
The final conclusion was that Lin Xin Yi was missing!
Coming to this conclusion, Lu Xuan went crazy and yelled at the two: “How were you two taking care of her! A stranger just simply tricked her away? Why didn’t you go with her?!”
Facing Lu Xuan’s raging, Xia Ye and Xing Feng could only silently bear it. They indeed bore a great deal of responsibility for this matter. If they had gone with Lin Xin Yi, then it wouldn’t have led to Lin Xin Yi quietly going missing. They could only say that hadn’t been vigilant enough. They simply hadn’t thought that within the sect there would actually be people who would be so daring.
