MTLNOVEL Chapter 49 - Wei Wuhen
“Hiss!”
“What is that thing? How can its killing aura be so terrifying!”
“This kid’s not simple—be careful!”
“…”
The moment the Phoenix Sovereign Sword appeared—
A torrent of killing aura swept forth.
Even the Demon Clan, notorious for their wickedness, felt a pang of dread.
They even wondered if they or this seemingly cheerful, sunny boy before them were the true Demon Clan!
Yun Zhanyi’s secretly circulating spiritual energy halted abruptly, and she and her fellow sisters froze in place.
It was unimaginable how much blood that treasure sword in Xiao Lingchen’s hand had tasted to emit such a horrifying aura!
Yun Zhanyi murmured to herself:
“Xiao Lingchen, you’ve hidden yourself deep!”
First, the dual cultivation technique—now this terrifying sword.
Who knew what else he was concealing!
In the brief moment they were stunned—
Xiao Lingchen charged at the Demon Clan.
Taking advantage of their shock, he instantly dispatched two of them.
The others, seeing this, were scared out of their wits and retreated frantically.
But how could Xiao Lingchen let them escape?
Strike first, then press the advantage—
He swung the Phoenix Sovereign Sword fiercely, cleaving the fleeing Demon Clan members in two.
The Demon Clan leader had intended to intervene—
But he was too late!
Now, in just a few breaths, he was the only one left.
His face turned green with rage!
“You’re courting death!!!”
He roared, his aura exploding outward!
As Yun Zhanyi had suspected, this Demon Clan leader’s cultivation had indeed reached Delusion Breaking Realm!
Though only first level—
The gap between Dao Palace Realm and Delusion Breaking Realm was like heaven and earth!
Anyone below Delusion Breaking Realm couldn’t possibly match him!
This put Xiao Lingchen in danger!
Next, the Demon Clan leader would surely go all out to kill him!
Despite her distaste for Xiao Lingchen—
Yun Zhanyi couldn’t bear to see him die here!
She shouted urgently:
“You’re no match for him—run!”
But—
Before she could even finish—
Xiao Lingchen had already raised his sword and charged at the Demon Clan leader.
The Phoenix Sovereign Sword slashed down hard!
Boosted by Phantom Step and the Radiant Jade Sundial’s speed—
He moved so fast that even the Demon Clan leader couldn’t react in time, only seeing Xiao Lingchen appear before him.
Instinctively, he raised his broadsword to block—
But found his body frozen, as if locked in place.
It was the Shadow Assault Technique!
Now mastered, Xiao Lingchen’s Shadow Assault Technique couldn’t fully bind a Delusion Breaking Realm cultivator—
But even a moment’s control could shift a battle!
And so, under its grip—
The Demon Clan leader missed his chance to parry.
Xiao Lingchen’s slash landed—
Severing his shoulder and entire arm in one blow!
This was only because the Demon Clan leader had sensed the danger and dodged with all his might.
Had he been a second slower or a realm weaker, he’d have been split in half on the spot.
For now, he’d clung to life—
But losing an arm drove him to scream in agony!
“Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!!!”
“A mere Dao Palace Realm ant dares wound me!”
“I’ll make you die!!!”
“Aaahhh!!!!”
He roared incessantly, black qi enveloping him.
His eyes turned blood-red, muscles wriggling and swelling—his body visibly growing larger.
The severed arm’s wound squirmed, sprouting a new limb.
Xiao Lingchen’s eyes narrowed—he wouldn’t give him a chance to counter.
He rushed forward—
Pushing Phantom Step to the limit, he kicked the Demon Clan leader flying!
Boom!
The massive force sent him hurtling hundreds of zhang away.
His transformation halted—
The regrowing arm, now tiny like a baby’s, looked utterly bizarre!
Interrupted mid-cast, the Demon Clan leader seethed with humiliation.
“Aaahhh!!!”
“You!!!”
“You deserve to die!!!”
“I’ll tear you to pieces!!”
But Xiao Lingchen clearly wouldn’t grant him that chance.
Rumble…
Countless thunderclouds gathered overhead, shrouding the sky in moments!
When Xiao Lingchen reappeared—
He stood before the Demon Clan leader.
Raising the Phoenix Sovereign Sword high, he summoned a flood of heavenly thunder to strike down!
Thunderous Wrath!
Boom!!
Endless thunder poured like a deluge, merging with torrential sword qi to engulf the Demon Clan leader!
Demon Clan members naturally feared heavenly thunder.
Trapped in its light—
He screamed in terror, struggling—
But couldn’t escape being shredded by sword qi and blasted to ash by thunder, dissipating into the air.
Now—
The scene fell silent, not a sound to be heard.
Yun Zhanyi and the others stood dazed, staring in disbelief—
As if in a dream.
“So… so strong!”
“Is Junior Brother Lingchen really at Dao Palace Realm?”
“It feels like we’re not even in the same realm.”
They were all at Dao Palace Realm—
Yet against these Demon Clan members, they’d been beaten miserably.
But in Xiao Lingchen’s hands, the Demon Clan members were like clay chickens and tile dogs—utterly feeble.
Even the Delusion Breaking Realm Demon Clan leader fell to his thunderous might!
It made them deeply doubt—was Xiao Lingchen truly just Dao Palace Realm?
He was on a whole different level!
After dealing with the Demon Clan members, Xiao Lingchen turned to check on Yun Zhanyi and the others.
But at that moment—
A mountain-like pressure crashed down from above—
Bearing directly on him, making his body sink, nearly toppling him.
Looking up—
A figure descended from the sky.
A flash of cold light streaked past—
Splitting Xiao Lingchen in two!
This sudden scene shocked Yun Zhanyi and the others, just as they’d regained their senses.
They looked ahead and instantly recognized the attacker—
A young man in silver robes, with silver hair, his cold face brimming with arrogance.
“You’re… Tianyan Sect’s holy son, Wei Wuhen?!”
Yun Zhanyi identified him, then erupted in fury:
“What are you doing!”
Not just her—the other Little Bamboo Peak disciples shouted in outrage:
“Wei Wuhen! Are you mad!”
“How dare you kill a Taixuan Sect disciple!”
“Do you know Xiao Lingchen isn’t just our sect’s disciple—he’s our sect master’s direct disciple! You’ve got some nerve!”
