Chapter 561: Chapter 560: Slaying Yang Jiu Lie, Shocking Yin Jiuyou

Yang Jiu Lie sensed the abnormal movement of the Great Array, and he was overjoyed. He added all his cultivation to his being, and the “lamp” behind his head shone brilliantly…

At this moment, a void fissure suddenly appeared behind Yang Jiu Lie.

It appeared so abruptly, it appeared so quickly.

Yang Jiu Lie sensed it, and his entire body trembled as he dodged like lightning.

At the instant he successfully avoided it, the dao platform collapsed, and that lamp shattered into pieces.

Swish!

Three Tao Leaves pierced through the void, shooting into Yang Jiu Lie’s forehead.

Yang Jiu Lie’s eyes widened fiercely: “Yin Jiuyou, you deserve to die…”

Before his voice faded, the void fissure returned!

With a scream, Yang Jiu Lie was swept into the void fissure; the void fissure closed up…

At the same time, all the Array Bases of the Four Seasons Array cracked simultaneously, and the Great Array ceased to operate.

Yin Jiuyou’s figure shook as he slowly retracted his Dharma Body.

Before him, there were no wonders of the Array Path.

Before him was only his Yin Valley.

Dark and chilling.

The setting sun cast its slanting rays, infinitely desolate.

A wisp of blood mist in the air, evidence that his brother had not gone far…

On the left mountain peak, countless senior disciples of the Yin Yang Temple appeared, looking toward Yin Valley, their faces full of astonishment.

In the confrontation just now, even the Enlightenment Realm Dharma Bodies manifested, yet due to the Great Array’s barrier, the others knew nothing.

At this moment, with Yin Yang Temple’s most renowned Four Seasons Great Array completely destroyed, they were finally alarmed.

The disciples wanted to know what had happened, but alas, they still had no way of knowing.

Because from their perspective, within Yin Valley, there was a veil of darkness, which was the temple master’s “Heavenly Tao Curtain,” which secluded all investigations and all sounds.

Inside Yin Valley, Feng Ji couldn’t see the Heavenly Tao Curtain.

Before she realized it, she was holding Lin Xiaosu’s hand.

Her palm was sweaty with cold.

To kill Yang Jiu Lie was solely because of the Array Path.

Now the Array Path was gone.

Faced with Yin Jiuyou, a standard Enlightenment Realm, what countermeasures did they have?

From the outside, Lin Xiaosu appeared unflustered.

But Feng Ji knew well that whether a person was flustered or not couldn’t be judged solely by appearance; at least on this junior brother’s face, one could never see his true inner emotions.

Lin Xiaosu was smiling.

Yes, smiling!

Yin Jiuyou’s hair fluttered gently in the setting sun, and on his face, at this moment, there was none of his usual nonchalance, but a somber air that could chill one’s heart.

“Master Yin, congratulations on successfully taking charge of Yin Yang Temple!” Lin Xiaosu said with a smile.

Yin Jiuyou’s eyebrows lightly arched: “How do you know this is what I want?”

“Whether you want it or not depends on the time, depends on the situation. Even if you didn’t want it before, you probably can’t do without it now!” Lin Xiaosu said indifferently: “Life, you see, is like a rape, if you can’t resist, then enjoy it!”

“Can’t resist?” Yin Jiuyou’s voice seemed to come from the Nine Netherworld Hell.

Feng Ji’s whole body tensed up.

Inside, she thought things were going poorly…

She really wanted to remind her clueless junior brother nearby not to provoke this person…

Lin Xiaosu smiled: “Let me show the temple master an image!”

He raised his hand, and a pair of glasses rested on his nose.

With a slight blink of his eyelid, an image floated in the void.

It was the image of Yin Jiuyou and Yang Jiu Lie’s duel.

Captured by Dragon Eye, in high-definition quality.

Yin Jiuyou’s face was iron blue, and his eyelid twitched violently…

Although he had used the “Taoist Sky Curtain” to seal off the surroundings, seeing this scene with his own eyes, he still felt a great sense of humiliation.

As a member of the Enlightenment Realm, to kill his brother for survival.

On the Cultivation Path, this was beyond outrageous?

This was something entirely unfit for the light of day…

“Master Yin, if this image got out, your lifetime reputation would go down the drain, and beyond that, you probably wouldn’t have the face to lead your disciples under Yin Yang Temple, your lifetime foundation would be easily destroyed.” Lin Xiaosu said.

In Yin Jiuyou’s eyes, a ghostly glint seemed to explode: “Boy, if you use this to threaten me, aren’t you afraid I’ll kill you to silence you?”

Feng Ji’s right hand was already on the sword hilt, her left hand on a token…

Lin Xiaosu bent down slowly: “If I say, as long as you dare to silence me, I can kill you with a lift of my hand, would you believe it?”

At the moment before the token in Feng Ji’s hand was about to break, she pressed it down.

Yin Jiuyou coldly stared at Lin Xiaosu, the ghostly glint in his eyes suddenly stopped moving.

The atmosphere became entirely frozen.

This entire space, deathly suffocating.

Lin Xiaosu chuckled lightly: “If you’re unsure whether I have a trump card, why not watch from the side!”

“Watch from the side?” Yin Jiuyou said in a deep voice.

“For now, assume your role as the sole temple master; for now, refrain from making any decisions, and watch my transformation!” Lin Xiaosu said: “Next, I will definitely personally kill an Enlightenment Realm, and you can watch by the side, and you will be glad that in our initial dealings, we bore good intentions towards each other, avoiding this road of no return.”

Yin Jiuyou’s expression changed unpredictably…

Watch from the side!

Not forcing him to lead Yin Yang Temple, stand behind him.

This is acceptable!

Once his mindset relaxed, his usual nonchalance returned: “Back then, you really bore good intentions?”

“Naturally!”

“Moving forward, will you still bear good intentions?”

“Master Yin, this question is naive!” Lin Xiaosu said: “If you have good intentions, I will reciprocate; if you play tricks, I will play till you doubt life itself, don’t mistakenly think that living hundreds or thousands of years makes you an old fox, living in this broken place of Kun Cang, living ten thousand years still amounts to nothing!”

Yin Jiuyou’s face showed an unreadable expression: “Boy, don’t you feel you’re damn arrogant?”

“So what?” Lin Xiaosu extended his hand, grabbing Feng Ji’s hand: “Farewell, let’s go!”

The two took a step forward and left.

Feng Ji’s heart skipped a beat. Was this a leap into the Underworld?

Because beneath their feet was the Bottomless Abyss, eerie and dark, its depths unknown.

However, Lin Xiaosu gently slid his hand, and the Bottomless Abyss opened a crack…

Revealing the green mountains and rivers below.

The two took a step forward, thus leaving the Yin Yang Temple.

Yin Jiuyou’s sinister eyes were like a demon lamp on the other side of the crack…

Gazing for a long time at their gradually distant backs.

On the distant river, there was also a pair of eyes watching the Yin Valley.

The owner of these eyes, for the first time in his life, was no longer carefree.

He was Zheng Tianyan.

Even though he was a master of the Enlightenment Realm, feared throughout Kun Cang.

He didn’t dare to blatantly intrude into the Yin Yang Temple.

He could only observe from a distance.

What did he see?

He saw the rupture of the Four Seasons Array.

He saw Lin Xiaosu arrogantly tearing the Taoist Sky Curtain.

He saw Yin Jiuyou, furious and helpless, with an unusual expression.

But he didn’t see Yang Jiu Lie…

What exactly happened?

Suddenly, the Tao Bell tolled!

The bell’s sound was infinitely desolate…

Oh my heavens!

Zheng Tianyan’s heart tightened as he stepped into the Yin Yang Temple.

The Yin Yang Temple was deathly silent. On the high platform, a lone lamp flickered like a bean.

Beneath the platform, disciples of the Yin Yang Temple were panicking.

A lone figure came from the Yin Valley, it was Yin Jiuyou.

Yin Jiuyou ascended the high platform and conveyed with a sorrowful voice to the audience: “My senior brother deviated while comprehending the Taoist Law, he’s ascended beyond, the entire temple shall entrust the Tao Lamp to send the temple master westward!”

“Venerable Wu Liang Shou!” All the spectators stood up in unison, raising their hands, pointing obliquely to the horizon, with each fingertip glowing faintly.

In this way, they bade farewell to Yang Jiu Lie.

Zheng Tianyan hid in the dark, his heart like the waters of the Spring River in March.

Yang Jiu Lie is dead!

Died from cultivation gone awry?

He practiced daily, how often did it go awry?

Today, Lin Xiaosu visited, and he went awry!

This…

Is this Lin Xiaosu’s trump card?

Easily obliterating a giant of the enlightenment realm?

The night wind blew past, leaving a layer of cold sweat on Zheng Tianyan’s back…

If today he had insisted on killing Lin Zei, would it be him being sent off at this moment?

Being a giant of the Enlightenment Realm, in the realm of Kun Cang, where Enlightenment is revered, few experience the threat of life and death. Today, Zheng Tianyan truly felt the danger of life and death…

Above the Spring River.

Stars filled the sky.

Lin Xiaosu sat at the bow of the boat, gazing at the starry sky.

Tonight, it’s the tenth day of the first lunar month.

In the outside world, the New Year visits weren’t complete.

But in Kun Cang, there seemed to be no New Year customs, only the endless Jianghu, with no beginning and no end.

The river flows softly away, starlight brushes upon it.

Feng Ji sighed softly: “Another giant has fallen, how big a wave will this stir in Kun Cang?”

“This particular giant, perhaps destined to leave no ripple.”

“None?”

“Yin Jiuyou will tell the Yin Yang Temple members that his senior brother went astray in cultivation and thus ascended to the heavens, and he won’t mention me.” Lin Xiaosu smiled.

Feng Ji said, “Sometimes, your ways are really hard to understand. If I were you, having control of the entire situation, I might have sent both of them off at the same time, rather than gamble on whether Yin Jiuyou might turn against us.”

Lin Xiaosu sighed softly: “Senior sister, do you think I really want to gamble? It’s truly the sorrow of being weaker, if I could truly control the entire scenario, who would want to walk a tightrope?”

Feng Ji’s eyes widened…

“That great array, it’s actually at its limit, being able to kill Yang Jiu Lie, it fulfilled its purpose, and it can’t kill Yin Jiuyou.”

Feng Ji blinked: “You have other trump cards.”

Lin Xiaosu laughed: “Trying to probe my secrets?”

“Not probing the trump card, it’s actually… understanding the trump card more clearly!” Feng Ji said: “In your upcoming risky acts, I need to know when to summon Master in advance.”

“At this stage, don’t disturb them.” Lin Xiaosu said: “Faced with the eve of massive changes, touching one strand could affect everything, if those of the Enlightenment Realm leave Li Mountain, there might be mutations, hence unless necessary, do not disturb them.”

Feng Ji nodded lightly: “That’s why I really want to know if you have a trump card, and what kind it is.”

Her voice was a secret transmission.

“The trump card does exist! Being able to kill an Enlightenment Realm giant is true, but… unless absolutely necessary, this card cannot be used!” Lin Xiaosu said.

“A one-time use?” Feng Ji’s heart skipped a beat.

“Pretty much!”

“What’s the next step?” Feng Ji stopped dwelling on the trump card.

For she fully understood.

A one-time trump card is particularly crucial in the rivalry.

Before its use, the deterrence is the greatest, after use, it loses its deterrence.

Therefore, the timing of deploying this card is very important.

She believed he knew how to choose.

“The next step is Luanyun Heaven!”
