Chapter 540: Getting Back
Chapter 540: Getting Back
Boom!
Lin Xuan Qi’s hammer smashed into Hu Yi’s head and the force with his descent from the air caused the ground to erupt.
The soil and mud from the ground was kicked up into the surroundings.
And when they settled back down, a small crater was created with Hu Yi’s head, or what was left of it, buried deep within.
Hu Yi’s body twitched for a few moments before it laid on the ground motionlessly.
"Senior martial brother!" The remaining few Qing Feng Sect disciples shouted but they dared not make a move towards Lin Xuan Qi.
But it was not enough for them to stay alive.
In the next moment, Lin Xuan Qi lunged at them with his hammers.
Splat!
With a swing of his arm, one of the Qing Feng Sect disciples got decapitated with his head bursting into a red mist of flesh and blood.
He didn’t wait and went on to pick off the next one.
"Don’t come near me!" The Qing Feng Sect disciple shouted and pointed his sword at Lin Xuan Qi, but there was no way that Lin Xuan Qi would let them off.
They had witnessed what he had done and he wasn’t about to let them get the opportunity to report back on him.
He swung his hammers upward from the ground and the hammers parried away the sword of the disciple and smashed onto the jaw of the disciple.
The jaw of the disciple, made of flesh, was no match for his hammers that were infused with his Five-Element Qi.
It got splattered into pieces and the disciple fell back onto the ground and stopped moving after struggling in pain for a few moments.
Lin Xuan Qi went on and got in between the last remaining two disciples.
He flung the hammers at their faces and the hammers shot out towards them with tremendous speed.
All that the two disciples could see was the hammers turning into a shimmer, and they became larger and larger in their vision, until they hit them.
Dang!
The ringing of the hammers’ metal could be heard when the tips of the hammers hit and plunged into the faces of the disciples.
The two disciples’ arms were raised with their swords in the air and they remained so.
After a few moments, they dropped to the ground dead.
Finally, it was over and there were bodies strewn all over in the surroundings.
"Grand Ancestor Lin!" Lao Er ran over to Lin Xuan Qi shouting excitedly.
"Wait!" Ling Er followed closely behind him.
With so many bodies that were on the ground, Lao Er nearly tripped on one, but he was quickly held back onto his feet by Ling Er.
Lin Xuan Qi shook his head at them and said in that low coarse voice, "We don’t have much time left, scavenge whatever you can before we leave."
Lao Er had wanted to kneel and kowtow to him for the help but Lao Er was one to listen to his instructions.
"We will do so now." Lao Er bowed at him and said before he went around to search for anything valuable from the bodies.
Ling Er joined in but she held one of her hands over her mouth while doing so.
The blood and ghastly scene wasn’t something that was easy for anyone to get used to.
And while they did so, Lin Xuan Qi went over to Hu Yi’s body and rummaged through what he had.
There was most importantly the wooden tablet that could open up the exit for the secret realm, some Spirit Stones and also a small blue sphere that he presumed to be the artifact that Hu Yi had used for the blue glow to protect himself earlier.
He gave the Spirit Stones and the blue sphere to Lao Er for their protection.
"Here, take these."
"Thank you so much, Grand Ancestor Lin." Lao Er bowed to him when he received the Spirit Stones and blue sphere from him.
"Are you done yet? We must go now."
Lao Er and Ling Er nodded their heads and said, "We are done."
Lin Xuan Qi saw that their shirts were so stuffed with items that they looked as if they were plump.
But he frowned and shook his head at them when he saw their hands being empty.
"You will be cultivating with the Snow Swan sword style, grab a sword for yourselves and for your protection.
"Don’t take the swords from the sect disciples, they have prominent markings on them."
"Yes, Grand Ancestor Lin. We shall get to it now." Lao Er said and glanced at Ling Er.
How careless of them....
The excitement of getting so many Spirit Stones and the possibility to cultivate had gotten over them that they forgot about such a detail.
They scurried around and found two swords that weren’t damaged and unmarked which they could use.
Lin Xuan Qi called out to them to stay close to him and they did.
"Get ready. Once you are outside of the secret realm, run and hide. Don’t let anyone know what happened, especially about what had happened to them."
He glanced over at the body of Hu Yi and the Qing Feng Sect disciples.
Lao Er and Ling Er nodded their heads vigorously.
Their image of these so-called sect disciples had changed after what they had witnessed earlier.
It was an eye-opener for them that they would etch into their heads.
These sect disciples weren’t anyone they could trust easily.
"I can’t sustain my manifestation for long, so you would be on your own again once we get outside." Lin Xuan Qi said and he held the wooden tablet up high with one hand and held onto his last invisible talisman with the other.
He directed his Five-Element Qi into both and the wooden tablet gave out a glow and right in front of them the air shimmered as if it was disturbed.
A slit appeared and it opened up into a circle.
Lao Er and Ling Er saw the familiar sight of the valley on the other side of the circle.
They walked up to it excitedly with Lin Xuan Qi who also activated his invisible talisman at the same time.
