Chapter 1188 The Price of Caution

Ling Yichen spat out a mouthful of blood.

The Broken Sky Sword was his life-blooded magical weapon. Although it had only been nurtured for a short time and had not yet been fully refined, his soul and spirit had already established an inseparable connection with the sword.

At this moment, Lin Fan's slash not only cut off the Broken Sky Sword, but also the invisible bond between him and the sword.

In an instant, Ling Yichen felt a burning pain in his sea of ​​consciousness. The foundation of his practice, which he had condensed for a long time, was shaken bit by bit. Even the immortality fruit that his heart had placed on was shattered into powder with the sound of a broken sword.

“Fake… fake, right?!”

He is a great golden elixir... a great golden elixir...

Ling Yichen was in a trance of disbelief. The pain of his soul being cut was like thousands of sharp blades stirring in his mind, the heart-wrenching burning sensation spread from his chest to his limbs, the buzzing sound in his ears was like thunder, his heart was trembling, and his three souls and seven spirits were like candles swaying in the wind.

A cold light suddenly appeared!

Ling Yichen's pupils suddenly contracted.

The slender silver sword unexpectedly condensed a terrifying thunder force in an instant, and the sword energy actually turned into a streak of light, heading straight for his vulnerable heart...

"Spare his life!" Shen Xiuyuan stretched out his arm and passed by in an instant.

Lin Fan paused slightly, the tip of the sword was only an inch away from Ling Yichen's heart.

The sword energy and Ling Yichen's protective energy collided violently, making a sound of metal clashing.

"Oh my!" Du Xingyu frowned and put his hands on his hips. "Why keep anyone here? We should just take revenge at this time!"

Mu Jingjing held the purple gold hammer in both hands, tapped her toes, and passed over Du Xingyu's shoulder: "Brother, why are you stopping her?!"

Yu Sinian closed his fan, and the formation pattern on the fan disappeared. He walked into the battle zone calmly with a normal look.

"Ah!" Du Xingyu sighed when no one paid attention to him, and followed reluctantly, "Be careful!"

"We can't kill him now!" Shen Xiuyuan breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the Qingyin Sword stop just in front of Ling Yichen. His back was already soaked with cold sweat, and his tense nerves relaxed a little.

"Why?" Although Lin Fan stopped, he still stared at the other party, "When he wanted to kill us, he showed no mercy."

If it weren't for Lin Fan's inherent bug and strong strength, everyone would have been dead on the spot by now, so how could they have a chance to talk?
In the previous fight, Lin Fan had already figured out Ling Yichen's strength. However, Shen Xiuyuan and the others were still suppressed at that time, and if they were not careful, they would lose everything.

Unfortunately, she had not learned how to deal with this kind of situation, so she could only take a risk at a critical moment and focus Ling Yichen's attention and spiritual power on herself to share the pressure on others.

The Wood Spirit Binding that Ling Yichen had activated was no threat to Lin Fan at all. In her eyes, the seemingly overbearing Wood Element Magical Power was like a sand castle built by a child, vulnerable to attack.

The reason why she pretended to be trapped was to restrain Ling Yichen's spiritual power while further lowering his guard.

Ling Yichen is too arrogant. Any sign of weakness from his opponent will be infinitely magnified in his mind.

Just like the previous sword fight, Lin Fan cleverly guided his actions, as if he was playing a carefully planned game.

When she felt Mu Jingjing's fire and Du Xingyu's wind enveloping her, she knew her strategy was working.

Taking advantage of the moment when Ling Yichen broke through the gap himself, Lin Fan decisively took advantage of the situation and prepared to set the prison on fire.

However, she didn't expect that when she activated the fire spirit inside, the people from the Youye Sect who had been observing secretly suddenly took action.

Let’s not talk about that guy’s purpose for now.

But objectively speaking, his appearance just provided perfect cover for Lin Fan's fire.

Under the cover of the mighty outer flame, her inner flame was like a trickle that submerged in the water, quietly and silently completing its mission. This was good, as it saved Lin Fan from having to find excuses later on as to why her fire could burn the wood spirit of a Jindan cultivator.

But this Ling Yichen really wanted to kill them.

If he were in their shoes, would he let the people from Changtian Sect go?
No! Otherwise, why would we need to mobilize so many troops to catch up?

And have the members of the Youye Sect, who have been hiding in the dark and have not yet appeared, been waiting for the right opportunity to take action?

Thinking of this, Lin Fan felt heavy in his heart.

This crisis that seems to be over may be the beginning of another one...

"I'm not trying to plead for him." Shen Xiuyuan said solemnly, "It's just that he is backed by the Taixu Sect after all, and now we are..."

As he spoke, his eyes swept over Lin Fan and his fellow brothers and sisters beside him.

"We are almost unscathed at the moment. If we kill him like this, it will easily lead to a dispute between the two factions due to insufficient reasons..."

“Brother!” Mu Jingjing’s eyes widened, and he raised the purple gold hammer high, pointing it at Ling Yichen. “We are not hurt, is it because he doesn’t want to? It’s just that he can’t do it!”

Ling Yichen was holding his breath, and when he heard Mu Jingjing's words, he vomited blood again. He couldn't even maintain his protective qi and fell down, stirring up a cloud of dust.

"Ah!" Mu Jingjing jumped back in shock, "He's trying to scam me!"

Lin Fan's gaze fell on Ling Yichen, who was already unconscious on the ground, and then he retracted his sword.

"I know, I know everything." Shen Xiuyuan's face was full of sorrow, and he continued to persuade, "But others don't know. They will only see the dispute we had before and during the auction, and then Ling Yichen died. You can ignore what others say, but Taixu Palace will definitely use this as an excuse to attack the sect. That group of people... you can see it from the one on the ground. Stay as far away as possible."

Shen Xiuyuan was just tricked by Ling Yichen, and suffered a loss, but Jingchen and Yifeng made the Taixu Palace a mess. Taixu Palace had been holding its breath for a long time, but had not yet expressed it.

Now, if Ling Yichen was killed by them, Taixu Palace would definitely seize this opportunity to double their revenge.

When the conflict escalates to the level of sect power, it is extremely serious and the losses are incalculable.

Shen Xiuyuan was not reluctant to part with Ling Yichen, but he did not want the sect to make a big fuss over such an unworthy person.

"But brother," Du Xingyu crossed his arms over his chest, with a hint of disapproval in his tone, "repaying evil with kindness, how can you repay kindness?"

"And even if we let him go now," Mu Jingjing interrupted crisply, "the feud has already been made. If he doesn't show gratitude and comes back to cause trouble for us in a few years, wouldn't that be a big problem for us? We don't always have such good luck as today."

Shen Xiuyuan was silent.

Indeed, this matter is a bit difficult.

If it really came to a life-and-death fight, and they killed Ling Yichen in self-defense, it would become a good story if it got out.

But they were all in the foundation building stage without a scratch on their skin, at most they were just a little frightened. But Jindan Ling Yichen died...

There's something weird about this matter.

If anyone is interested, Lin Fan will definitely be exposed.

Although no one knew Lin Fan's situation, they had a tacit understanding in their hearts and were unwilling to expose him.

"What should we do?" Du Xingyu looked at Ling Yichen, who was already unconscious on the ground, with disgust, "We can't just let him go like this, can we?"

Before Shen Xiuyuan could speak, he heard the Youye Sect member who had been silent for a long time speak again.

"I hate the cowardly look of you so-called righteous people who are afraid of wolves in front and tigers behind. If you don't dare to kill, I will do it!"
