They were all people from the Saint Sword Sect, including the four protectors, the eight commanders, and ten zealots. The formation before him could be said to be the core power of the sect. The four protectors were all at Great Perfection of the Divine Sea Realm.
Thinking back to when Lin Xuan was still in the Saint Sword Sect, it was rare to see them. These people appeared and disappeared unpredictably! While the 10 zealots were within the Saint Sword Sect, they were people who did dirty work!
These people were all from the Saint Sword Sect, and they would remain as people of Saint Sword Sect even in death. They were the absolute pawns that the Grand Elder of the Saint Sword Sect had raised! These ten people only listened to the Grand Elder and his daughter, Lin Xuerou. As for the eight commanders, Lin Xuan was someone they were familiar with!
One of the eight commanders walked out. His name was Lin Sen, and he said with a cold smile, "You're really lucky. However, you can't afford to court death like this. Since you escaped from the Saint Sword Sect and didn't die, why did you come back? Do you know that we had our eyes on you the moment you returned to the Heavenly Flame Empire?!"
This Lin Sen had once been one of Lin Xuan's good friends! However, after Lin Xuan had fallen, even though Lin Sen hadn't abused Lin Xuan as much as Zhang Long had, he had still made things difficult for him!
"I'm afraid you don't know that the Saint Sword Sect has already issued a Blood Slaughter Order on you. We have eyes all over the entire Heavenly Flame Kingdom. As long as you appear in the country, we will discover you. Do you think we won't be able to see you if you disguise yourself as a businessman?"
Lin Sen was so excited that his saliva was flying all over the place. It was as though finding Lin Xuan was an extremely lucky thing for him.
Lin Xuan's face was getting colder by the second. By the looks of it, the eight commanders were all out to kill him. Seemed like this was Lin Xuerou's order.
Lin Xuan sighed. "It seems like you guys were responsible for the death of the old sect master…"
Lin Xuan still remembered that it was the old sect master who had taken him in as a disciple of the Saint Sword Sect. At that time, the Saint Sword Sect was still flourishing with people. However, three years ago, the old sect master suddenly disappeared. Since then, the Saint Sword Sect was no longer the same!
Lin Sen sneered, as if mocking Lin Xuan's ignorance. "Hahahaha, that old bastard deserved to die! You're right, it was the Great Elder and the Sect Master who killed the old Sect Master with our cooperation!"
"I'm afraid you don't know this, Lin Xuan. Actually, there are many elders in the sect who do not wish for you to die. It's just that Miss Lin Xuerou has personally issued a Blood Slaughter Order on you."
"As long as we can kill you, we will be able to obtain a generous reward!" The other leader was also an old acquaintance of Lin Xuan's. His name was Chen Ang, and he smiled maliciously as he said, "So, my old friend, this time you will still die in our hands, and we will be rewarded! This is a rare and wonderful thing!"
Lin Xuan asked curiously, "In that case, I would like to know, how much is my head worth?"
"Fine, I'll let you know since you're about to die. Miss Xue Rou said that as long as your head is cut off, we will be rewarded with one million Spirit Stones and we can become an inner elder. If your heart is removed, we will be rewarded with one million Spirit Stones and become an inner elder. If your limbs are chopped off, we will be rewarded with five hundred thousand Spirit Stones and become an outer elder!
"That's why your cheap life is still very valuable!"
Another Saint Sword Sect disciple said, "There's another thing that I think I have to tell you now. The day after tomorrow is Young Mistress Xue Rou and the Young Sect Master of the Green Leaf Sect's wedding… And the few of us also plan to give Young Mistress Xue Rou some gifts. Your head is the best gift!"
Hearing these words, Lin Xuan slowly shook his head. "I thought that you guys still had a shred of humanity left in you. But now, it seems like I was wrong. Completely wrong!"
Currently, Lin Xuan's hands were trembling with rage!
"Hahaha, looks like you finally know fear!"
Lin Sen laughed maliciously. He was extremely arrogant, as if Lin Xuan knew he was going to die and was afraid!
Lin Xuan shook his head and said, "I'm just so excited that I'm about to die! You inhumane beasts, it's finally time for you to go to hell!"
As these words were spoken, the entire audience fell into a deathly silence. Everyone looked at Lin Xuan as if they were looking at a fool. Was this man crazy?
"Hahahaha!! Kill us?" Lin Sen laughed maniacally. "Lin Xuan, are you scared silly?"
However, just as he finished speaking, he heard a ripping sound. His voice stopped, and his smile froze on his face! His body didn't move at all. It was as if he had frozen. It wasn't just him; even Chen Ang and the other commanders beside him seemed to have frozen!
"Commander Lin Sen?" one of the subordinates behind him asked cautiously. Right after he finished speaking, a clang resounded as Lin Sen's head fell off his body, followed by Chen Ang's head. The remaining heads of the other commanders rolled down as well!
Gulp! Gulp! Gulp!
Their heads were like dominoes. One by one, they fell to the ground.
Blood sprayed onto the spot! There were over 10 of them, and it was especially so for Lin Sen. Fresh blood sprayed from his headless corpse like a fountain!
"Oh my god… All eight commanders are dead!" Everyone present was dumbfounded. Then, a bone-chilling cold crept over their bodies.
Lin Xuan asked coldly, "You people, why do you want to harm me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he grabbed at the air and threw out a sword aura. With a sudden swing, the heads of the four protectors flew out!
"I have no grievances with you in the past, nor do I have any enmity with you in the past, yet all of you want to kill me!" Another piercing sound rang out, and all the disciples of the Saint Sword Sect present were dumbstruck!
"Heavens!!!" Countless disciples and guards cried out.
Even the four protectors and eight protectors had their heads chopped off by Lin Xuan, causing everyone to scream out in pain. They were scared out of their wits, as if they had seen a monster. Their nerves were on the verge of breaking down!
However, before they could react, their necks were all cut open, and their heads fell off.
In less than a quarter of an hour, the entire alley was silent. On the faces of those who had died, frozen expressions of fear, shock, and disbelief were twisted to the extreme! Even at the brink of death, they could not believe that what they were facing was actually real!
"Hah…" Lin Xuan let out a long sigh as he looked into the distance. Slowly, he said, "Looks like it's time to return to the Saint Sword Sect. There are some debts that need to be settled, and there are some people that need to be killed!"
At this moment, the Saint Sword Sect of the Heavenly Flame Kingdom was exceptionally lively. It was an extremely important day for the entire Saint Sword Sect.
This was because the Saintess, Lin Xuerou, was going to marry the young master of the Green Leaf Sect!
For this wedding, they had invited thousands and thousands of reputable people from the surrounding empires and families!
What kind of genius was Xue Rou?
