Lin Hai died, and his head rolled slowly to the side like a rubber ball. A large trail of blood dripped on the spot, which was too tragic to look at.
If anyone were present, I am afraid they would have lost their teeth at this moment. A dignified internal disciple of Liuyun Sect and the proud disciple of Xiao Zhenhai, the blood-hand mad disciple, after using the most powerful move, the Red Blood Fire Prairie Fire, was unexpectedly beaten by a newbie who just joined the sect.
The disciples who were three months old were beheaded alive.
If such news were to spread, I would definitely be shocked.
In the cave passage next to the stone room, feeling the sudden quiet atmosphere, the hearts of the six or seven inner disciples also raised their throats. The movement just now was like the collapse of the mountain. At this moment, it became silent.
Everyone knows that the duel over there is over.
"Who actually won..."
After a moment of silence, an inner disciple finally swallowed hard and spoke cautiously.
"I think it should be Senior Brother Lin Hai. After all, he just used Red Blood to Set a Prairie Fire..."
"But why doesn't Senior Brother Lin Hai come over?"
"Maybe he is injured, should we go over and help him..."
Then several inner disciples also spoke up, but their tone was obviously a little guilty. Although they couldn't find any reason to doubt their senior brother Lin Hai, at the moment, for some reason, six or seven of them still had an ominous premonition in their hearts.
"Let Wang Yue go, or he will be killed without mercy!"
Just as the six or seven inner disciples were suspicious, suddenly, a cold shout came from the end of the passage.
This voice was like the command of the God of Death. When they heard it, the six or seven inner disciples couldn't help but shudder.
"That's Shen Chen's voice, Senior Brother Lin Hai..."
Immediately afterwards, a group of inner disciples who came back to their senses were shocked and looked at each other speechless. They heard very clearly that the person who just ordered them was obviously... Shen Chen!
What about Senior Brother Lin Hai?
At this thought, the six or seven inner disciples fell into despair almost instantly.
However, there were still brave people who mustered up the courage, suppressed the fear in their hearts, and shouted in the direction of the sound: "Let us release him, you... you... why do you..."
That person was obviously very unsure.
And at the next moment, a figure slowly came back, seemingly holding something in his hand.
That person was Shen Chen. He walked to a place where six or seven inner disciples could see him. Then, he slowly raised his hand, pointed at the thing in his hand, and said coldly: "Based on this, you can still let it go."
Don’t let go?”
In an instant, six or seven inner disciples were stunned, and they finally saw clearly what was in Shen Chen's hand.
That thing turned out to be... the head of Senior Brother Lin Hai!!!
At this moment, the head was still dripping blood, and a pair of eyes were wide open, which was extremely terrifying.
"You...you...you actually killed senior brother Lin Hai, you...you...you..."
Sixty-seven inner disciples were so scared that they almost collapsed on the ground. The scene before them was too shocking and too sudden. Senior Brother Lin Hai, whom they believed to be the winner, was now missing, and his head was being held in someone's hand.
And this person was none other than Shen Chen, who had been considered dead by them before.
how so?!
The six or seven inner disciples were about to burst into tears.
"I'll say it again, if you want to survive, let Wang Yue go."
Shen Chen's voice sounded indifferently again, and the tone was not high. However, in the ears of six or seven inner disciples, it was like the howl of a ghost.
"Ding-ding-ding-ding-ding..."
The next moment, all the weapons in the hands of the six or seven inner disciples fell to the ground. Even Senior Brother Lin Hai was killed. What else could they use to resist the demon in front of them?
"Hahaha! Aren't you all very arrogant before? Let's see if you can still be arrogant when I chop off your heads!" Wang Yue broke free from the hold and was already furious. He immediately raised his ax to kill someone. .
"Forget it, Lin Hai is dead, there is no need to kill again!" However, Shen Chen stopped him and did not let Wang Yue execute the seven people lying on the ground.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Chenchen, for not killing me!"
"Thank you, Senior Brother Shen Chen, for your forgiveness..."
"Senior Brother Shen Chen is so large that we don't dare to do it anymore!"
"Yes, we were all deceived by Lin Hai before, and we don't dare to do it anymore!"
…
Seeing that they had saved their lives from the god of death, the seven inner disciples immediately kowtowed and thanked Shen Chen one by one. They were not at all like the inner disciples of the Liuyun Sect who usually had a high level of attention.
"Get up, you, and you, you two, go out and let the guys guarding the door catch you, otherwise..."
Shen Chen had no expression on his face and randomly named two of the seven people to inform the inner disciples outside. At the end of his words, a sharp look flashed in his eyes.
"Yes, yes, we will let those guys surrender now and wait for Senior Brother Shen Chen to be punished!"
How could the two chosen people not understand what Shen Chen meant? They immediately got up and walked out of the cave.
Not long after, Shen Chen led Wang Yue out of the cave, but the five inner disciples outside the cave had already thrown their weapons aside and were kneeling on the ground, trembling with fear.
The two people who had just come out had informed them of the situation in the cave. After learning that Senior Brother Lin Hai died tragically, everyone knew that this operation was completely over!
"Senior Brother Shen Chen, spare your life. We all have no control over our own hands. Without Lin Hai's instigation, even if we were given a hundred courages, we would not dare to go against you, Senior Brother Shen Chen!"
As the saying goes, when a tree falls and the monkeys scatter, Lin Hai dies. These inner disciples who used to follow him all put all the blame on Lin Hai.
Some even went so far as to directly curse Lin Hai for what he had done in the past, hoping to gain Shen Chen's forgiveness.
"You go back first and report today's situation to the superiors truthfully. As long as you don't go against me in the future, I will help you plead with the elders later." Shen Chen said calmly.
In his past and present lives, he has long been accustomed to all kinds of people following others' influence. Although he disdains what these guys are doing now, he is too lazy to scold them like a moral defender.
"Yes, yes, what Senior Brother Shen Chen taught us is that from now on, we will never dare to go against you, Senior Brother Shen Chen."
"Senior Brother Shen Chen has a kind heart and does not care about past grievances. We are all willing to do our best and fight for Senior Brother Shen Chen through life and death!"
"We will comply with senior brother's arrangements and will go back and tell the elders truthfully what happened here..."
Upon hearing Shen Chen's arrangement, a group of inner disciples felt as if they had been granted amnesty, and all kinds of flattering voices continued. Then, at Shen Chen's signal, they all ran out of the valley in disgrace.
"Brother, are you just taking advantage of these white-eyed wolves?" After a group of inner disciples left, Wang Yue looked at Shen Chen unwillingly.
Until this moment, Wang Yue's eyes were still filled with murderous intent. If Shen Chen hadn't stopped him, he would have cut off a few heads and used them as stools.
It's not surprising that Wang Yue was cruel. You must know that these guys had participated in hunting them down before. Many of them probably still had his and Shen Chen's blood stains on their weapons at this moment.
"Otherwise..."
After all the inner disciples left, Shen Chen's expression finally dropped, and he was no longer as cold and indifferent as before.
He fell back weakly and lay on the grass without wanting to move, his whole body was exhausted.
When Shen Chen used the three consecutive slashes among Youyou's Nine Slashes before, although it was very majestic, it almost exhausted all his energy, and his blood was severely overdrawn. It would be impossible to do it again.
"Brother, you are injured," Wang Yue stepped forward, his eyes full of concern, "No wonder, brother, you are willing to let them go, so that's how it is..."
"It's not all because of this," Shen Chen shook his head while lying on the ground and said, "Think about it, if I drive out all these inner disciples today, what will the elders and the sect master think?"
"this……"
Wang Yue was startled and seemed to understand something, but he still argued: "But it's obvious that they attacked us first and wanted to kill us. Even if the superiors know about this, can we understand it?"
"Haha, Wang Yue, you are too naive. Sometimes things in this world cannot be solved by making sense." Shen Chen was too tired to say more, but he still patiently explained: "I'm sorry. Disciples are the cornerstone of the Liuyun Sect's development. The superiors of every sect regard them as their future hope. The more we kill, the more trouble we will have when we return. Moreover, these people are not allowed to have descendants of the sect's senior leaders. If we really want to kill our direct disciples, then you won’t be afraid that some old monster will put our little shoes on us in the future!”
"oh!"
Wang Yue suddenly realized and said: "So, brother, if you let them live, it will also reduce some unnecessary troubles for ourselves."
"Well, that's right. On the other hand, in order to evade responsibility when these guys go back, they will definitely put all the blame on Lin Hai. Some of them will also be used by me in the future. These are all good for us." Shen Chen smiled and nodded.
With two lifetimes of experience, Shen Chen always thinks a little more deeply about things than others, which allows him to suffer less hidden losses.
"But brother, aren't you afraid that they will bite me back and tell the elders that we are the two senior brothers Lin Hai who want to harm them?" Wang Yue thought for a long time and suddenly said something cold.
"Don't worry, this won't happen. Two disciples who have just joined the sect want to harm the already famous elder's direct disciple and dozens of inner disciples. Do you think anyone will believe such nonsense? Well, okay? Those guys can’t be that stupid!”
Shen Chen slowly closed his eyes, everything was under his control.
…
About an hour later, Shen Chen woke up from the state of recuperating. There was still some dull pain all over his body, but his blood had recovered a lot.
Wang Yue thought he was going to return to the sect, but Shen Chen shook his head.
"Don't worry! I gained a lot from the previous battle and gained many rare insights. In addition, I already had eight large acupuncture points on my left arm. Now is the perfect opportunity for a breakthrough. I want to break through to the fourth level of the Blood Fusion Realm first. go back!"
Shen Chen said with a solemn look, in fact, not only was his cultivation about to break through the bottleneck, but he also had to digest the precious insights he gained from performing Youyou's Nine Cuts and Three Consecutive Cuts in the previous crisis as soon as possible.
Shen Chen believes that if everything goes well, his strength is likely to reach a big level next!
