Chapter 2251: Chapter 2249: [Preparing to Kill Lu Huanzhi?]

"Senior Sister, I will definitely remember your words, I surely will!"

Princess Zi Xuan stood on the open ground, looking at the pool of blood on the ground, her gaze was filled with murderous intent, tightly gripping the Cheng Ying Sword in her right hand, tears also welled up in her eyes. From a young age, Princess Zi Xuan was raised by Master Sang Qing and Second Master Sang Hua. Though both masters were very kind to her, they were responsible for managing the entire Flying Flower Zen Temple, their energies were limited. However, Senior Sister Jin Hua, like a real sister, always took care of Princess Zi Xuan’s daily needs and taught her many things!

Especially this time, Flying Flower Zen Temple faced great peril, Princess Zi Xuan was entrusted by Sang Qing in a moment of crisis, passing on the position of Sect Leader. The person who supported and backed Princess Zi Xuan the most was Senior Sister Jin Hua. In Princess Zi Xuan’s heart, Senior Sister Jin Hua was like her real sister. In order to protect Flying Flower Zen Temple’s legacy, Senior Sister Jin Hua sacrificed her life, knowing that facing four Early-stage Martial Saint realm martial artists alone was most likely a deadly choice, but she was fearless, embracing the determination to die, blocking these strong practitioners of the Early-stage Martial Saint realm. Such greatness and noble sacrifice spirit truly moved people!

"No, this is not the time for me to drown in grief. Our many sisters in the Flying Flower Zen Temple are still in danger. I have to protect them and escape this formation to scatter and survive!" Princess Zi Xuan snapped out of it, talking to herself.

Princess Zi Xuan grabbed the Cheng Ying Sword and flew straight towards the gap in the formation, because there were martial artists in night suits blocking it. The female disciples of Flying Flower Zen Temple were flying towards the gap, knowing that once they broke through, it would not be easy for the enemies to encircle and kill them again!

The Cheng Ying Sword was initially blocking the gap in the formation to prevent it from closing quickly. However, Princess Zi Xuan was not foolish and was a very talented martial artist. Finally, she remembered a Rune Skill taught by Master Sang Qing, using this Rune Skill to fix the gap, which was more useful than blocking it with the Cheng Ying Sword!

Swish!

Before flying to the gap, Princess Zi Xuan swung the Cheng Ying Sword, releasing a Sword Qi that instantly killed a night-suited martial artist, leaving him utterly obliterated and saving a female disciple of Flying Flower Zen Temple. As several escaped to the formation gap, ready to flee, seeing Princess Zi Xuan flying over, they stopped, which made Princess Zi Xuan pause and say, "What are you all waiting for? Leave!"

"Sect Leader, you go first, we’ll cover!"

"Exactly, our life and death are insignificant, but you must live!"

"As the inheriting Sect Leader, your life is more important than ours. There has to be a choice made here!"

Hearing these Flying Flower Zen Temple sisters’ words, Princess Zi Xuan didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. She wanted to laugh because she felt comforted by how united her Flying Flower Zen Temple sisters were. They were not selfish in this life-and-death situation, fighting for the legacy. She wanted to cry because, was Flying Flower Zen Temple truly at such a declining stage? To preserve the Sect Leader’s life, sacrificing other sisters, how tragic!

"Sisters, you go first, I’ll cover, don’t worry, nothing will happen!" Princess Zi Xuan smiled and said.

"But..." Some still wanted to persuade Princess Zi Xuan to leave first, but she interrupted them.

"Remember my words, everyone in Flying Flower Zen Temple must strive to live, and one day, Flying Flower Zen Temple will be rebuilt!" Princess Zi Xuan said resolutely.

These few Flying Flower Zen Temple female disciples, upon hearing Princess Zi Xuan’s words, found them sensible and didn’t delay further, exiting through the gap. Princess Zi Xuan stood at the gap without leaving, holding the Cheng Ying Sword, Sword Qi raging on it, ready for a fierce battle. This gap would let only Flying Flower Zen Temple’s female disciples leave. If anyone dared to pursue, Princess Zi Xuan would rush to block them, regardless of who they were; she wouldn’t let anyone chase or kill her sisters!

Boom!

A loud noise erupted as Ye Tianchen and Lu Huanzhi’s battle continued for an hour. Lu Huanzhi had long deployed the Iron Ruler Treasure for a fierce battle against Ye Tianchen. It seemed like an evenly-matched battle. Though Lu Huanzhi was somewhat angry, he felt he could suppress Ye Tianchen and was not overly anxious!

"Your strength isn’t excessively superior, wouldn’t you agree?" Lu Huanzhi said with a smile to Ye Tianchen.

"I finally understand why senior Sang Qing saved you back then!" Ye Tianchen said with a realization.

"Hm? Why?" Lu Huanzhi asked with some irritation, furrowing his eyebrows.

"Because you are too weak. For Senior Sang Qing, killing you would be as easy as turning her hand over, and eradicating your White Clothes Sect would be as simple as a flick of her finger!" Ye Tianchen replied with utter indifference.

"Hmph, it’s a pity she didn’t expect that I, Lu Huanzhi, would rise after years of dormancy!" Lu Huanzhi snorted coldly, speaking with great arrogance.

Indeed, for many years, since Lu Huanzhi received assistance from Sang Qing, he secretly developed the power of the White Clothes Sect and never caused trouble again. Although he was aware that Sang Qing was about to pass away and that the Flying Flower Zen Temple might be annihilated, with the Immortal Origin Liquid being the focus of many inheritance battles, he kept quietly observing everything, fearing that if he revealed his true intentions prematurely, Sang Qing would be furious. Even if Sang Qing was about to pass away, to kill him and destroy the White Clothes Sect would still be effortless. It wasn’t until he confirmed Sang Qing had indeed passed away that Lu Huanzhi felt confident in revealing his ambitions without fear, believing that everything was under his control and calculated plan!

"You’re wrong. It’s not that Senior Sang Qing didn’t expect it, but in her eyes, petty scoundrels like you are insignificant. Even if she’s gone and didn’t eliminate a potential threat, I will help her do so!" Ye Tianchen smiled slightly and said.

"Reckless fool, arrogant and conceited, I don’t think you can withstand my Iron Ruler Treasure!" Lu Huanzhi shouted loudly, clutching the Iron Ruler Treasure in his hand.

Ye Tianchen glanced around; the female disciples of the Flying Flower Zen Temple had mostly escaped. There was no need to hold back further. He merely looked at Lu Huanzhi indifferently and said, "You, as the Sect Leader, possess such meager strength and such low cultivation realm; I feel embarrassed for you. I truly wonder how you have the courage to wander in the martial world..."

"You... little bastard, I will obliterate you!" Infuriated by Ye Tianchen’s taunting, Lu Huanzhi immediately lunged at Ye Tianchen.

Ye Tianchen smiled indifferently, having intentionally provoked Lu Huanzhi. He genuinely disregarded Lu Huanzhi because from the recent series of battles, it was evident that Lu Huanzhi was only at the Mid-stage Martial Saint. He could only perform a few Divine Power Secret Skills. As long as Ye Tianchen unleashed combat power surpassing the Mid-stage Martial Saint Cultivation Realm, he could easily kill Lu Huanzhi!

Buzz!

As Lu Huanzhi charged forward, Ye Tianchen’s right hand revealed a sword emitting divine power. When Lu Huanzhi saw the sword in Ye Tianchen’s hand, he was utterly shocked, originally charging at Ye Tianchen, he suddenly stopped and, surprised, said, "This... is this one of the ten Ancient Divine Swords, the Xuanyuan Sword?"

"To use the Xuanyuan Sword to annihilate you is quite an honor, isn’t it?" Ye Tianchen smiled, looking at Lu Huanzhi.

"Who... who are you? Why do you have so many powerful treasures?" Lu Huanzhi asked in astonishment.

"Well... Some say I’m a demon, some say I’m the demon among demons, and others say I’m an anomaly!" Ye Tianchen replied, laughing lightly.

"Hmph, I don’t believe it. Even if you have an Ancient Divine Sword, you can’t kill me. We are both at the Mid-stage Martial Saint Cultivation Realm; can you really be stronger than me?" Lu Huanzhi regained his composure, snorted coldly and said.

Swish!

Ye Tianchen did not speak, immediately wielding the Xuanyuan Sword to unleash a powerful sword qi. As the sword qi surged forth, it carried a dawn-like force, seemingly splitting the world open. Among the few Ancient Divine Swords he acquired, Ye Tianchen used the Xuanyuan Sword the most and had the greatest insight into it. When he imbued it with his strongest power and unleashed such a strike, even Ye Tianchen himself was astonished by the power!

"This..." Lu Huanzhi was stunned, witnessing such a powerful sword qi descending, feeling an irresistible force. Yet, subconsciously, he still believed he couldn’t be weaker than Ye Tianchen, being a sect leader at the Mid-stage Martial Saint Cultivation Realm. How could he possibly be struck down like this? So, Lu Huanzhi swung his Iron Ruler Treasure to fend off the attack!

Clang!

The sword qi unleashed by Ye Tianchen’s Xuanyuan Sword clashed against Lu Huanzhi’s Iron Ruler Treasure. In an instant, Lu Huanzhi felt a surge of killing intent, but he displayed a self-assured smile at the corner of his mouth...
