Chapter 289: The Unstoppable Lin Qian
🕑 Added 2024-09-16 04:40:29 +0000 UTC"Kill him!"
The Five Battle Generals roared in unison as their golden swords unleashed brilliant golden sword energy, slashing toward Lin Qian from five different directions. The five beams of golden sword energy created an impenetrable net, cutting off any possibility of escape.
Whoosh!
A massive golden sword energy descended from above, splitting the air as it targeted the top of Lin Qian's head. The speed of the attack was so fast that it left no room for reaction.
Lin Qian glanced around at the approaching sword energy from all directions, then looked up at the massive golden sword looming overhead. A mocking expression appeared on his face.
Seeing Lin Qian's arrogance, still standing there without even trying to dodge, Qin Feiyu's face twisted into a cruel smile. "Fool! The power of the Five Strikes Falling Golden Sword is not something you can withstand with mere physical strength!"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
As Qin Feiyu's shout echoed, the five golden sword curtains and the massive golden sword descending from the sky struck Lin Qian simultaneously.
The air was filled with blinding golden light as the explosive soul energy unleashed a deafening roar, reverberating through the sky.
The spectators watched intently, trying to sense if Lin Qian's presence still remained amidst the overwhelming power of the attack.
Feeling the strong residual force, Fang Ziqian chuckled bitterly. "This seems a bit beyond what I expected. If that guy really gets hurt, my old man at home will beat me to death."
"This level of attack isn't enough to take down His Majesty," Zhao Long stated with absolute confidence, his gaze unwavering as he looked toward the white mist in the air.
Amidst the deafening sound of the explosion, Qin Yiyi, who had been watching Lin Qian take the attack head-on, laughed triumphantly. "To face the Five Strikes Falling Golden Sword without dodging—how foolishly laughable!"
Swish!
Just as Qin Yiyi sneered, a starry sword light slashed across her face, leaving a thin cut that began to bleed. She turned to see Ye Xin standing before her, showing no signs of being distracted by Lin Qian's situation. Instead, Ye Xin's gaze remained icy, filled with killing intent.
"I will return the humiliation you gave me, twice over," Ye Xin declared coldly, her voice as chilling as the starry aura that surrounded her.
Qin Yiyi's expression darkened as she looked at Ye Xin, jealousy gnawing at her. Despite only breaking through to the Life and Death Realm's body stage, Ye Xin's combat prowess far exceeded her own, leaving Qin Yiyi unable to comprehend why.
"Aren't you worried that your lover might die at my brother's hands?" Qin Yiyi shouted angrily, unable to understand why Ye Xin remained so calm despite Lin Qian's apparent peril.
At the mention of Lin Qian, Ye Xin's face softened into a proud smile, her chin lifting slightly. "My fiancé will not lose."
Thud!
A heavy sound suddenly emanated from the center of the explosion, and Lin Qian's previously silent aura erupted once more, sending waves of imperial pressure in all directions.
The pressure swept across the onlookers, causing many to pale as their soul energy instinctively surged to resist the overwhelming force.
Roar! Roar!
A long dragon's roar echoed through the air as the thick white mist generated by the soul energy explosion was suddenly dispersed by a powerful gust of wind.
Nine scarlet-gold dragons coiled around Lin Qian, crackling with lightning as they protected him from all sides, leaving no openings.
The translucent imperial flames flickered on Lin Qian's Emperor's Robe, burning brightly.
Lin Qian raised his arms, examining the robe as he smiled mockingly at the stunned Qin Feiyu. "I must admit, that move was indeed powerful. Without the Emperor's Robe, I might have actually gotten hurt."
At that moment, Lin Qian, hovering in mid-air, appeared every bit the emperor, surveying his lands with an imposing presence that crushed the will of those who dared to face him.
"See? I told you Lin Qian would be fine," Li Yunfeng said smugly as he patted Fang Ziqian, who was still speechless.
Fang Ziqian opened his mouth, then let out a bitter laugh before nodding. "Looks like I won't have to face the old man's wrath after all. This guy can handle things just fine."
Meanwhile, Qin Yiyi stared in disbelief at Lin Qian, who stood unscathed in mid-air. No matter how hard she tried to deny it, she couldn't ignore the fact that he had withstood the Five Strikes Falling Golden Sword without sustaining any real injury.
In the next moment, a starry long sword thrust toward her face, forcing her to focus entirely on defending herself against Ye Xin's relentless assault. She didn't need to guess how smug Ye Xin must feel right now.
The failure of the Five Strikes Falling Golden Sword shocked not only Qin Feiyu but also everyone else present.
The Five Battle Generals had always been a formidable force, and their combined soul technique, the Five Strikes Falling Golden Sword, had felled countless powerful opponents, making them a terrifying weapon in Qin Feiyu's arsenal.
But now, that unstoppable sword had been shattered by Lin Qian.
Fear crept into Qin Feiyu's heart as he realized that Lin Qian was even stronger than he had initially thought.
"He absolutely cannot be allowed to live!" Qin Feiyu roared internally, his soul energy surging as he gave the order to the Five Battle Generals to press the attack.
As for himself, he held back, waiting in the shadows for the perfect opportunity to strike. After all, weren't subordinates meant to sacrifice themselves to create those opportunities?
Seeing the Five Battle Generals charge at Lin Qian, Qin Feiyu remained cold and calculating. If they died, it wouldn't matter to him—there were plenty more waiting to take their place.
But as the Five Battle Generals closed in, they were shocked to find that Lin Qian's speed was beyond imagination. In the blink of an eye, he had already broken through their encirclement.
Behind the Five Battle Generals, the crown prince of Wei Kingdom was terrified as Lin Qian rushed directly toward him.
"Protect me! Protect me now!" the Wei prince shouted in fear, calling desperately to the four men by his side.
Lin Qian's display of power had completely shaken his confidence. He couldn't imagine facing such an overwhelming opponent head-on.
The Wei prince's plan was simple: stall Lin Qian until the Five Battle Generals could catch up. Surely, with their combined strength, they could defeat him.
But as the Wei prince formulated his desperate plan, Lin Qian closed in on him, with the Five Battle Generals in hot pursuit.
