An unexpected encounter with the sleeping Little Dragon Girl leads to the annihilation of the Quanzh

Damn it.

Two words were squeezed out from between Guo Jing's teeth, devoid of any warmth, yet containing a hatred and resolve strong enough to burn everything.

The finger pointing at Lin Ye's brow was as steady as a mountain, and the energy gathered at its tip made Lin Ye feel a needle-like chill on his brow.

The entire valley was deathly silent.

Everyone held their breath, waiting for the great hero Guo Jing to personally execute this "traitor".

They awaited bloodshed, awaited a just trial, to wash away the shame that had been borne by this land.

In the midst of this deathly silence, a sudden voice rang out.

"Oh."

A soft chuckle.

It was very light, so light, like a feather falling to the ground.

But in this atmosphere as solid as iron, it was as clear as a thunderclap exploding in everyone's ears.

The one who laughed was Lin Ye.

That isolated island, condemned by all and sentenced to death.

He lowered his head, his shoulders shrugged slightly, and laughter slowly escaped from the depths of his throat.

"hehe……"

"Ha ha ha ha……"

The laughter grew louder and more unrestrained, transforming from suppressed chuckles into maniacal roars. There was no joy in that laughter, only endless absurdity, desolation, and a raging fire burning from the very marrow of someone driven to the brink of despair!

This laughter caused Guo Jing's usually steady fingers to tremble almost imperceptibly for the first time.

He doesn't understand.

Why would a spy facing certain death laugh?

What right do they have to laugh so arrogantly?

"What are you laughing at!" Guo Jing shouted angrily, his voice tinged with annoyance at the strange laughter.

Lin Ye's laughter stopped abruptly.

He abruptly raised his head, his once clear eyes now completely stained with a bloodthirsty madness. His gaze was no longer fixed on Guo Jing, but rather swept over everyone present like two red-hot irons.

He glanced at Qiu Chuji's face, which, after scheming, feigned grief and indignation.

He glanced at the indifferent or surprised expressions on the faces of the other members of the Seven Masters of Quanzhen.

He swept his gaze across the crowd of so-called "fellow travelers" who had once looked at him with envy and jealousy, but now only harbored hatred and contempt.

Finally, his gaze returned to Guo Jing's face, which was etched with "justice."

"What am I laughing at?"

Lin Ye's voice no longer contained any explanation or silence, but transformed into a cold, poisoned blade.

"I laugh at the 'chivalry' of this world; it's utterly ridiculous!"

"I laugh at how filthy the 'righteous path' of this world truly is!"

His voice suddenly rose, each word filled with anguish, each sound like thunder!

"If you want to find fault, you can always find a pretext!"

These eight words, like eight heavy hammer blows, struck hard into everyone's heart.

Qiu Chuji's expression changed slightly, and an ominous premonition rose in his heart. Shouldn't this little beast be kneeling and begging for mercy, or putting up a stubborn resistance? What kind of posture is this?

Huang Rong's heart sank to the bottom. She knew the worst had happened. Lin Ye was completely enraged and abandoned any possibility of communication.

Guo Jing's brows furrowed into a tight knot. He couldn't understand the meaning behind Lin Ye's words. In his simple worldview, black was black, and white was white. Spies deserved to die.

"You..." Guo Jing was about to speak when Lin Ye interrupted him with an even more violent roar!

Lin Ye took a step forward, and the aura emanating from him caused even Guo Jing, a top expert, to subconsciously feel a sense of unease!

"You're saying I'm a spy from Menggu?"

His gaze, sharp as a hawk's, locked onto Qiu Chuji, then slowly shifted to Guo Jing.

"Good! What a brilliant traitor, Meng Gu!"

Lin Ye's face was distorted by extreme anger, a kind of ferocity and determination that emerged from despair after reaching the extreme.

"Since you insist on pinning this label on me, and since this bright and clear world, this martial arts world of the Central Plains, cannot tolerate my innocence!"

His voice echoed throughout the valley, each word carrying the tragic grandeur of a resolute break and the madness of someone transformed into a demon.

"Then I'll accept it!"

"Yes! I am Menggu's spy! So what?!"

These words shocked the entire audience!

Everyone was stunned.

They had anticipated countless reactions from Lin Ye: denial, sophistry, or even suicide to prove his innocence.

But what I never expected was that he actually... admitted it?!

Moreover, he admitted it in front of all the heroes of the world with such an extremely arrogant and contemptuous attitude!

This is no longer a confession.

This is a declaration of war!

This is a declaration of war against everyone present and against the entire martial arts world of the Central Plains!

Qiu Chuji was taken aback at first, then a surge of joy welled up in his heart!

He admitted it! He admitted it himself!

Now, no one can defend him anymore! Lin Ye will be forever nailed to the pillar of shame in the martial arts world!

"Did you hear that! Did everyone hear that?!" Qiu Chuji pointed at Lin Ye and roared hoarsely, "He admitted it himself! This traitor, this heartless bastard!"

The crowd was ignited once again. The slight hesitation that had arisen from Lin Ye's maniacal laughter was instantly ignited by this "admission"!

"Kill him!"

"Kill this traitorous dog!"

"Great Hero Guo! Shall we rid the martial arts world of this scourge!"

Roars and curses merged into a vast ocean of hatred, threatening to completely engulf Lin Ye.

In the center of this vast ocean, Lin Ye seemed deaf to it; in his eyes, there was only endless coldness and burning darkness.

He looked at Guo Jing's face, which was flushed red with shock and anger, and the curve of his lips became increasingly sinister.

"What? Master Guo, isn't this the answer you wanted?"

"Are you satisfied now?"

Guo Jing's body trembled slightly from the immense emotional shock. He couldn't understand it, he simply couldn't understand it! Why? How could someone be so shameless? Betraying their country and family, colluding with the enemy, and yet still acting so self-righteously?!

"You...you scoundrel! You beast!" Guo Jing squeezed out these words through gritted teeth. In all his learning, he could not find a more vicious word to describe the person in front of him.

"Scoundrel? Beast?" Lin Ye roared to the sky, his laughter filled with endless sorrow. "Who forced me into becoming a scoundrel? Who made me unworthy of even being a human being? It's you! It's you so-called 'heroes' who spout morality and righteousness while engaging in framing and slander!"

He stretched out his hand and pointed towards Zhongnan Mountain, the place that had been his first nightmare.

"In the Quanzhen Sect, I was subjected to all sorts of humiliation by the likes of Zhao Zhijing. Did you 'elders' ever utter a single word of justice?"

His hand then pointed to everyone present.

"I achieved my current martial arts skills through my own abilities, and you accuse me of 'betraying my master and ancestors' without even asking why!"

"Now, you can't even produce a single piece of evidence, yet you've concluded I'm a spy for Menggu based solely on your words!"

Lin Ye's chest heaved violently, his bloodshot eyes fixed intently on Guo Jing.

"Since the martial arts world of the Central Plains, and the entire Song Dynasty, won't give me, Lin Ye, a way out!"

"Then why should I shed another drop of blood or exert any more effort for this land?!"

"Starting today!"

His voice seemed to come from the deepest hell, carrying a demonic and resolute quality that could change the very fabric of the world.

"I, Lin Ye, have betrayed the Central Plains!"

"You want a spy, you want a demon? Fine! I'll transform into a demon and slaughter all of you hypocritical righteous people!"

"I'll see what you bunch of chickens and dogs can do to me!"

The moment he finished speaking, Lin Ye's aura exploded!

That was no longer just internal energy, but a dark energy that was almost tangible, mixed with endless resentment, anger, and killing intent! The gale swept outwards from him in all directions, making people unable to open their eyes and causing the trees in the valley to sway wildly, as if they were trembling at the birth of an unparalleled demon!

"Arrogant!"

Guo Jing was enraged by Lin Ye's outrageous words, trembling with rage and feeling as if his liver and gallbladder were about to burst! Throughout his life, he had been a chivalrous hero, defending Xiangyang and valuing the greater good of his country more than his own life. And Lin Ye dared to trample on the most sacred beliefs in his heart!

This is no longer about cleaning house or executing traitors.

This is a moral battle, a war of beliefs!

"You're spreading heresy! I will take your life today to set the record straight!"

Guo Jing roared, no longer hesitating. His surging inner strength instantly poured into his palms, unleashing a powerful and unparalleled palm force, ready to be unleashed.

However, Lin Ye was faster than him!

At the moment he declared himself an enemy of the entire world, the last shackle in his heart shattered completely.

Screw patience!

Screw innocence!

Since you define justice with your fists, then I will use even stronger fists to show you what despair is!

"roar--!"

A deafening dragon roar did not come from Lin Ye's mouth, but from his palm and from every pore of his body!

He slowly extended his right palm, the movement not fast, but rather somewhat freehand.

But as he moved his hand, an enormous dragon head, made of pure golden dragon-shaped energy, materialized out of thin air!

Every scale and whisker on the dragon's head was clearly visible, lifelike. Its eyes, unlike the majestic and sacred gaze of Guo Jing's palm strikes, were filled with savagery, destruction, and boundless rage!

The Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms!

Upon seeing this move, Guo Jing's pupils suddenly contracted to the most dangerous pinpoints!

impossible!

This is the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms! And it's even more refined, more domineering, and completely different in its artistic conception than what he learned!

His palm technique is the guardian dragon of "the greatest heroes, those who serve their country and its people".

Lin Ye's palm technique, however, was a vengeful dragon that had broken free from the shackles of the abyss and was determined to destroy everything!

A hidden dragon lies in the abyss!

Guo Jing also knew this move. He knew that the essence of this move lay in the word "latency," accumulating strength and unleashing it at a crucial moment.

But Lin Ye's "Hidden Dragon in the Abyss" seems to have no "hidden" process at all!

The enraged golden dragon appeared with a world-destroying power, roaring and colliding as if the abyss itself was being torn apart!

"not good!"

Alarm bells rang in Guo Jing's mind. He had never seen such terrifying palm force before; that power had exceeded his understanding of martial arts.

But he is Guo Jing!

He is Guo Jing, the chivalrous hero who guarded Xiangyang and fought in countless battles!

He can lose, he can die, but he must never retreat!

"Well done!"

Guo Jing roared, unleashing his full power to its peak. He unleashed the same move, "Hidden Dragon in the Abyss," from his palm!

A powerful golden dragon, carrying the righteous spirit of protecting all living beings, faced the demonic dragon that represented destruction and revenge!

Two colossal dragons, formed from unparalleled divine skills, collided with a deafening roar before the horrified eyes of countless onlookers!

There was no earth-shattering noise.

For a fleeting moment, there was utter silence.

It was as if the sounds of the entire world were completely swallowed up by the point of impact.

Immediately afterwards, a visible, ring-shaped white shockwave exploded outwards from the point where the two palms met!

boom--!!!

This time, it's a real cataclysmic event!

Wherever the shockwave passed, it carved deep furrows into the ground, sending countless pebbles soaring into the sky before crashing down like hailstones. Martial artists nearby were caught in the aftershocks, instantly falling to their deaths with screams of agony. Those with weaker skills coughed up blood and fainted on the spot!

The whole scene was complete chaos!

And at the very center of the storm.

The color drained completely from Guo Jing's face in an instant.

He felt as if what he had released was not a dragon, but a stubborn rock crashing into the stars.

The power emanating from Lin Ye's palm was initially fierce, but upon contact, it transformed into a bottomless vortex, a black hole that devoured everything! His proud palm power, capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks, surged into it, yet it was like a mud ox entering the sea, failing to even stir up a ripple!

Immediately afterwards, a force a hundred times more violent and a thousand times more refined than his own palm strike came back with overwhelming force!

That power is not of this world!

"puff--!"

Guo Jing felt as if his internal organs had been struck by an invisible giant hammer, and he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. The bones in his arms, which he used to block, snapped instantly with a teeth-grinding "crack"!

Immediately, he was thrown out like a kite with a broken string by that unparalleled force!

"Brother Jing!"

Huang Rong let out a piercing scream and leaped out, trying to catch Guo Jing.

However, the residual force was too strong. She barely managed to deflect some of the force with the "Orchid Finger Technique" before being forced back more than ten steps before she could regain her footing.

Guo Jing crashed heavily to the ground, spitting out a large mouthful of blood that stained the ground in front of him a shocking dark red.

His face was ashen, and his breath instantly became extremely weak.

He struggled to stand up, but found that his meridians were in excruciating pain, and he couldn't muster any internal energy. He raised his head and looked at the culprit with an incredulous gaze, a mixture of pain, confusion, and horror.

The entire venue was deathly silent.

A deathly silence so profound you could hear a pin drop.

The wind stopped.

The roar vanished.

The curses stuck in his throat.

The same expression was frozen on everyone's face—extreme fear.

What did they see?

Guo Jing!

That Master Guo, hailed as the greatest martial artist in the world today!

That peerless hero who, with his mastery of the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, defended Xiangyang and left Meng Gu's army helpless!

actually……

Defeated with a single palm strike?!

Moreover, he was struck by a boy who was not even twenty years old, using the same move from the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms, and was left lifeless with a single blow!

This is no longer a matter of who has better martial arts skills.

This is the difference between God and man!

Everyone's eyes, instinctively, converged on the eye of the storm.

Lin Ye slowly withdrew his hand.

He remained standing in the same spot, without moving an inch.

The wind howled, whipping his black clothes and long hair. The dark, violent aura emanating from him did not diminish after unleashing his palm strike; instead, it intensified, as if it had merged with all the negative emotions in the world.

His face was expressionless.

There was no joy in defeating a powerful enemy, nor any satisfaction in seeking revenge.

There was only an empty space.

A cold, empty void, where only ashes remained after the entire world had been burned.

His gaze slowly swept across the entire room.

He glanced at Guo Jing, who was lying on the ground, unable to get up.

Huang Rong, her face streaked with tears, embraced Guo Jing and looked at him with eyes full of fear and hatred.

His gaze swept over Qiu Chuji, whose face was deathly pale, whose body trembled uncontrollably, and whose eyes held no trace of triumph, only pure fear.

He swept over the thousands upon thousands of "fellow martial artists" who had once clamored to tear him to pieces but were now silent as cicadas in fear, not even daring to meet his gaze.

He stood there alone.

Yet it seemed as if he alone was the whole world.

One man against the whole world!

At this moment, on a high mountain not far away, the Golden Wheel Dharma King was shocked!

"If this man were to serve Meng Gu, the world would be terrified wherever his iron cavalry went!"
