Chapter Fifty-Seven One Evening

  Everything is unfavorable for Yunlai Jianzong to the extreme.

  A top-notch sect!

  Sword Master!

  It can completely influence the attitude of sects like Taoyuan Gate, Taiyin Pavilion and Leishen Temple, especially at this moment when Yunlai Sword Sect does not have the premise of intimidating with war puppets.

  Perhaps, for the sake of stability in the entire Wanxia County, Xuanling Sect might show leniency to Taoyuan Gate and Xianxia Sect, and even if Taiyin Pavilion and Leishen Temple demonstrate sufficient sincerity, completely surrendering to Xuanling Sect and offering their sects as tribute, Xuanling Sect might spare their lives. However, Yunlai Sword Sect...

  No!

  There is no way out!

  Dawn Valley, Yunlai Sword Sect killed three great swordsmen of Xuanling Sect and more than twenty high-level swordsmen. Blood debt must be repaid with fresh blood!

  Destroying Yunlei Sword Sect can not only achieve the purpose of establishing prestige and intimidation, but also because Yunlei Sword Sect has few personnel and uncomplicated relationships, it will not cause large-scale shock to Wanjia County. Qi Lingyun couldn't think of any reason why Xuanling Sect would let Yunlei Sword Sect go.

  From this point of view, Yunlai Jianzong is about to face a great disaster.

  "Qī Lǎo Lǎng, I need time, just one night, at least give me one night! One night, perhaps, I can win a chance for our Yunlai Sword Sect to survive!"

  Qin Tianyi didn't explain much and simply stated his requirements clearly.

  "One evening?"

  Qin Tianyi nodded: "I'll return to the sect's residence immediately, please ask Qi Elder to buy me a night's time. Bei Yue Sword Master should not have arrived at the arena yet, otherwise, the Xuanling Sect people would not have retreated at the critical moment. Therefore, Qi Elder, you only need to deal with those great swordsmen, whether it's delaying time or fighting to the death, buy me a night."

  "One evening!"

  Although Ziling Yun didn't know what Qin Tianyi could do in one night, however, in these six months, the Yunlai Sword Sect developed from scratch to this point, and it was all his credit. Especially recently, he even took out a fierce beast inner elixir that not every strong sword master possessed...

  Thinking of this, Qi Lingyun gritted his teeth and said: "Alright, one night! Just one night! After one night, do you have a way to dissolve the crisis in front of us?"

  "I can't give you a specific promise, but I believe that there will be some kind of new life."

  "Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, we must strive for it with all our might. Let's return to the sect's courtyard now and I'll also go notify Taiyin Pavilion, Leishen Temple, Xianxia Sect, and Taoyuan Gate!"

  "Good."

  Qin Tianyi didn't waste any time and quickly headed with Qi Lingyun towards the temporary residence of the Zongmen.

  "Is that Master Qi?"

  "Is it Young Master Shao?"

  Qin Yuyan, Jiang Caiyun, Gu Cheng, Xiao Sumeng and others who were waiting for news in the courtyard saw the two return with a heavy expression, and couldn't help but pause slightly, hastily calling out with questioning tone.

  "Tianji, go ahead and do what you want."

  Qin Tianyi nodded and stopped paying attention to Qin Yuyan and the others, turned around and walked straight into a quiet room in the courtyard.

  "Xiao Su Yue, Gu Cheng, you two, guard the room where Shao Zong is cultivating, no one is allowed to approach."

  Qin Tianji entered the quiet room in the courtyard, and Qi Lingyun immediately passed on the order again.

  Xiao Su Yue and Gu Cheng were both strong swordsmen at the seventh level of the peak, and in the entire Yunlai Sword Sect, apart from him, Qin Tian Yi, and Qin Yu Yan, they were the two most outstanding among the disciples.

  Xiao Su Yue and Gu Cheng nodded cautiously, "Yes!"

  "Yi Shi, Tang Liang, Jiang Caiyin, Xue Ziyi, the four of you, immediately go to Leishen Temple, Taiyin Pavilion, Taoyuan Gate, and Xianxia Sect. Invite the great swordsmen from these four major sects over and tell them that our Yunlai Sword Sect may have a way to break the deadlock."

  "Yes, Elder Qi!"

  The four of them responded in unison and quickly headed towards the outside of the courtyard.

  After seeing all these disciples leave, Qin Yuyan finally had time to ask: "Elder Qi, what exactly happened?"

  "It's broken through!"

  Zi Lingyun's tone carried a hint of indescribable oppression: "The Beiyue Great Swordsman of the Xuanling Sect has broken through and advanced to the Sword Master realm. Very soon, possibly tonight or tomorrow, the formal decree from the Xuanling Sect will be issued!"

  "What?!"

  Qin Yuyan's heart was severely shaken.

  At this point, she finally understood why Qi Changlao and Qin Tianyi's expressions were so solemn.

  Beidou Great Swordsman, actually broke through to Sword Master realm?

  Xuanling Sect, unexpectedly became a first-rate sect?

  With the unrelenting relationship between Xuanling Sect and Yunlai Sword Sect, once Xuanling Sect really becomes a first-rate sect and obtains the many privileges of a first-rate sect, the entire Yunlai Sword Sect will face the danger of collapse.

  "Bei Yue, unexpectedly became a sword master... how is this possible?"

  Qin Yuyan was confident in Yunlai Jianzong's current foundation, but after all, she was still young. At this moment, when she heard that her opponent was a swordsman with the power to dominate Wanxia County, she couldn't help but feel her mind shaken.

  "I don't know, everything can only be seen in the sky, Tianji said he might have a way to bring a glimmer of hope for our Yunlai Sword Sect."

  "Tiān Jī?"

  Qī Língyún nodded slightly.

  The two of them chatted for a moment, and Jiang Caiyun, Xue Ziyi, Yi Shishi, Tang Liang and others had all returned. Along with them were Wu Zhen Tian from the Thunder Temple, Kong Mo from the Taixu Pavilion, and Wei Qing from the Xianxia Sect. As for the people from the Taoyuan Gate who should have appeared at the same time, they were nowhere to be seen.

  "Qī Lǎo Lǎng, the Taoyuan Gate crowd used the excuse that their sect's leader had temporarily left to decline our invitation, saying they would come and gather with us after the elder returns..."

  Xue Ziyi's face was somewhat annoyed as she went to invite the expert of Taoyuan Gate.

  She naturally understood that what the people of Taoyuan Gate said was just an excuse.

  "As expected."

  Zi Lingyun immediately understood and came over.

  Tao Yuan Men and Tai Yin Pavilion, Xian Xia Sect, Lei Shen Temple are different.

  The sister of the leader of the Xianxia Sect was killed by the Xuanyuan Sect, and the Taoyin Pavilion and Leishen Temple have been secretly resisting the Xuanyuan Sect all along. Once the Xuanyuan Sect becomes a first-rate sect, they will basically have no way out. Therefore, even if they learn that the Beiyue Great Swordsman of the Xuanyuan Sect has broken through to Sword Master and the sect has advanced to first-rate, they can only go down one road to the end.

  However, Taoyuan Gate and Xuanling Sect have conflicts, but the conflicts are not intense, just some small fights. If Taoyuan Gate really shows enough sincerity to surrender to Xuanling Sect, Xuanling Sect may spare them!

  "How detestable! Does Dong Ping really think that those ruthless and cunning people from the Xuanling Sect are so easy to get along with?"

  "To scheme for a tiger's skin is to scheme against one's own life. Dong Ping and those people are really muddled."

  Kong Mo and Wu Zhen Tian heard this news, one by one shook their heads repeatedly, with a look of great annoyance.

  In their eyes, there was also a hint of fear.

  Fearing Beiyue who broke through to the realm of Sword Master in the Xuanling Sect.

  The difference between a great swordsman and a swordmaster is too big.

  "Alright, Qi Lingyun, you asked us to come over, what's going on?"

  "You said there's a way to break through, could it be that you've found the Storm Essence? Can you activate the War Puppet of your Yunlei Sword Sect?"

  Kong Mo and Wu Zhen Tian scolded the crowd from Taoyuan Gate a few times, then their eyes fell on Qi Lingyun again.

  "Gentlemen, just one night, give Yunlai Sword Sect one night. Tomorrow, our Yunlai Sword Sect may have a way to break the deadlock!"

  At this time, Qi Lingyun could only pin his hopes on Qin Tianyi.

  "One night? What can one night do?"

  "Wait, the Yunlai Sword Sect is just a day's journey from the county city of Wanjia County. Could it be that someone among you has gone to drive that war puppet at Yunlai Sword Sect? Qin Tianji? The young master of your Yunlai Sword Sect?"

  "Hehe, Qin Tianyi, the young master of the Qin clan, is our only hope."

  Zi Lingyun smiled and said, but he could only try to be vague.

  "It seems that Qin Tianyi, the young master of the Qin clan, has gone to Yunlai Sword Sect to pilot that swordmaster-level war puppet."

  "If the Yunlai Jianzong's war puppet can be activated, we might still have a chance to break through. However, I don't know how strong that war puppet is and whether it can withstand the true sword master of Beiyue."

  Zi Lingyun's words made the people of Ta Yin Pavilion and Lei Shen Temple breathe a slight sigh of relief.

  The pressure brought by a strong swordsman was too great, so great that they almost had a kind of suffocating feeling.

  If Yunlai Jianzong's Qin Tianyi can really kill Beiyue Sword Master with a single sword master-level war puppet, even if Xuanling Sect has three more great swordsmen, the alliance of several major sects will still be able to counterbalance.

  "By the way, I haven't congratulated Qiling Yun for breaking through to the Great Swordsman realm yet. Hehe, you've been hiding it from us pretty well."

  Things have temporarily settled down, Kong Mo's gaze fell back onto Qi Lingyun, and he smiled as he congratulated him.

  "Yes! Especially the young master of the Gui Sect, Qin Tianji. He truly deserves to be called the number one sword talent among our younger generation in Wanxia County. It's only been a short while, and he has already reached the Great Swordsman realm. Truly, a hidden dragon!"

  It seems that the news of Qi Lingyun killing Qingmu He, Yang Tiānxià, Feng Bópíng, and Gǔ Gāng has already reached their ears, and they have learned that Qi Lingyun and Qin Tianyi both possess great swordsmanship skills.

  Qilingyun smiled slightly: "We, Yunlai Sword Sect, also by chance and coincidence, finally opened a treasure left behind by Qin Donglai's sword master in the past. In that treasure, we found several inner elixirs, which allowed us to break through one after another and advance to great swordsmen. If it weren't for those inner elixirs, let alone Tianji, even I would still be lingering at the high-level swordsman stage."

  "Inner Dan of Ferocious Beast!"

  These four words made Kong Mo, Wu Zhen Tian, and Wei Qing's hearts skip a beat.

  Yunlai Jianzong, unexpectedly has a ferocious beast inner dan.

  "Qin Donglai was a sword master who had already condensed his true fire back then, and must have been a peak strongman. Otherwise, how could he have killed the Lord-level ferocious beast?"

  "It goes without saying that the Cloud Sect's ancestral treasure, the Cloud Ascension Sword, is a spiritual sword. To refine a spiritual artifact, one must first refine true fire to temper it."

  "Hehe, at present, Qin Tianji, the young master of the Qin clan, is young and promising. He hasn't even turned twenty yet, but he has already advanced to the Great Swordsman realm. It's only natural that he would be admitted to the Shenvu Academy for further studies. With time, there's a great possibility that he can break through to the Sword Master realm. The Yunlai Sword Sect will have a worthy successor!"

  It's rumored that the Sword Master-level War Puppet of Yunlai Jianzong has been reactivated, and it's also heard that Yunlai Jianzong actually has a ferocious beast inner elixir. The attitudes of Taoyin Pavilion, Leishen Temple, Xianxia Sect, and others have clearly changed.

  If it was said earlier that the Yunlai Sword Sect and the Cloud Sword Sect were on an equal footing, it was because of the face of the sword master-level war puppet. But at this moment, when Qi Lingyun and Qin Tianyi have successively advanced to the Great Swordsman realm, it is truly treating the Yunlai Sword Sect as a powerful sect that can be mentioned in the same breath as them.
