spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Hong Yu's sudden outburst once again tensed the nerves of everyone present.

spanfont-weight:" 400"="""Hong Yu!

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Wait, wasn't Chen Lang accompanying her when they entered?"

spanfont-weight:" 400"="""Seeing Senior Sister Hong Yu, I suddenly remembered. Her goal this time was to challenge Senior Sister Lin Ying for the position of the Tenth Holy Maiden.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Could it be that the people Senior Sister Lin Ying brought with her killed Chen Lang?

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""But that doesn't seem likely. Before they came in, I checked all the teams. Senior Sister Lin Ying's ten helpers weren't particularly strong this time.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""In fact, if the two sides encountered each other, Senior Sister Lin Ying's team probably wouldn't stand a chance."

spanfont-weight:" 400"="""No need to speculate. Hong Yu is out now, and from the looks of it, she knows the inside story."

spanfont-weight:" 400"="""..."

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Hong Yu's sudden appearance stirred the hearts of everyone present.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The Third Elder waved his hand, instantly immobilizing her and pulling her close.

spanfont-weight:" 400"="""Who killed my grandson? Speak!"

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Even though the Third Elder was doing his best to restrain his aura, Hong Yu's fear only grew deeper.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""She felt that with the slightest movement from the Third Elder, she would be reduced to ashes.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The gap between them was too vast!

spanfont-weight:" 400"="""It was Lin Ying!

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""It was Lin Ying's helpers who destroyed Chen Lang's physical body. Senior Brother Chen's soul tried to escape, but then Lin Ying obliterated his soul!"

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""At this moment, Hong Yu dared not waste a single word in front of the Third Elder.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Under such absolute fear, everyone present knew that her words could not possibly be lies.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The Third Elder closed his eyes, his aged face filled with grief.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Chen Lang was his favorite, his only grandson.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The Third Elder's Dao Companion had perished before he achieved the Dao, and the two had only one child, who also died during his growth.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Chen Lang was the only bloodline left, and the Third Elder cherished him like a treasure.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The Third Elder had done everything in his power to give Chen Lang the best of everything.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""But in the end, he had not lived up to his expectations and reached the pinnacle.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""When the Third Elder opened his eyes again, the killing intent around him had reached its peak.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""With a light push, Hong Yu was sent tumbling to the ground.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""A mouthful of blood spilled out, and her aura weakened instantly.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""She struggled to get up, but she couldn't.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""At this moment, Hong Yu was filled with both fear and relief.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Fear for her future fate and relief that the Third Elder had not killed her outright.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Hong Yu knew that once the Third Elder had vented his anger, he would surely summon her again to inquire about the details.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""And when she came out, she had already prepared her story.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""At the very least, her life should be safe now.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""At this moment, the Third Elder's gaze shifted to a corner of the plaza.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""There were about a dozen Lin Clan members who had come to watch the event.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The leader was Lin Qianyan, a Lin Clan elder with Immortal Lord level cultivation.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The moment they saw Hong Yu emerge from the Sword Qi Corridor, Lin Qianyan and the dozen or so Lin Clan disciples behind him had a bad feeling.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""When they heard Hong Yu utter Lin Ying's name, they felt as if the sky had fallen.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Everyone could see the Third Elder's rage.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Only bloodshed could quell it.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""When the Third Elder's gaze turned toward them, Lin Qianyan didn't hesitate. With a wave of his sleeve, he tried to flee with the dozen or so Lin Clan disciples.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""This matter had nothing to do with them, but being from the same clan as Lin Ying was now their crime.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The Third Elder couldn't touch Lin Ying for now, but killing them to collect some interest in advance was something no one would stop.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The moment they moved, Lin Qianyan's heart was already filled with despair.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""He was just an Immortal Lord. Escaping in front of an Immortal Emperor was far too difficult.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Before Lin Qianyan and the others could get far, sharp sword energy instantly formed a cage around them, trapping them.

spanfont-weight:" 400"="""Thinking of escaping in front of me? Too naive."

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The Third Elder's icy voice rang in Lin Qianyan's ears.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Then, without any visible movement from the Third Elder, the sword energy cage contracted.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""It dragged Lin Qianyan and the others in front of the Third Elder.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The overwhelming pressure of the Immortal Emperor's aura forced all the Lin Clan members to their knees.

spanfont-weight:" 400"="""Kneel down!

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Wait until Lin Ying comes out, and then you will all die together!

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Of course, the Lin Clan will no longer need to exist."

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The Third Elder's voice was cold and authoritative, but to Lin Qianyan and the others, it was like a thunderbolt from the heavens.

spanfont-weight:" 400"="""Third Elder, calm down.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Let's wait for all the juniors inside to come out and investigate thoroughly."

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The Fourth Elder's expression was grim.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The Lin Clan didn't have particularly strong connections within Sword Land, but they were still a first-rate force under Sword Land's jurisdiction.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""If they were to be wiped out, it would indeed be a great loss.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Moreover, this would go against the sect's rules.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""After all, the rules set by the Sword Master for this Sword Qi Corridor event explicitly allowed unrestricted competition.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""This meant that killing was not restricted.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Whether it was Chen Lang or Saintess Qing Yue, if they died inside, it was no one's fault but their own for being weaker.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""If this were in private, the Third Elder could use whatever means he wanted and the others would turn a blind eye.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""But this was in full view of the public, with almost all the forces under Sword Land's jurisdiction present.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""Destroying the Lin Clan in a fit of rage was simply too inappropriate.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The Third Elder was clearly blinded by anger.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""If a first-class power was sacrificed for Chen Lang today, then in the future, the other powers under Sword Land's rule might flee one after another.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""In the grand scheme of things, this would shake the very foundation of Sword Land.

spanfont-weight:" 400"="""Fourth Elder, there's nothing more to say. I am very calm.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""In any case, my grandson is dead, and someone has to pay the price."

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The Third Elder's words remained domineering, and his Immortal Emperor-level aura continued to press down on Lin Qianyan and the others.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""They could only kneel on the ground, trembling.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""The Fourth Elder and the others felt helpless. They tried their best to contact the Sword Master. Only the Sword Master could resolve this situation.

spanfont-weight:" 400"=""But no matter how hard they tried, there was no response.
