The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 167 Want to Slip Away?

Innate Middle Stage Realm, a powerful opponent from Divine Wind Academy named Suo Wen, with a single move, was slain by Jing Yan!

Is this real?

Countless pairs of eyes were fixed on the stage, on the still-standing figure in green and the figure in white lying face-up on the ground.

Why did their eyes see a scene that was completely opposite to what they had expected?

Under normal circumstances, shouldn’t it have been Jing Yan who was slain by Suo Wen?

Numerous Martial Artists all had similar thoughts, their jaws nearly dropping in shock.

At that moment, Jing Yan slowly retracted the Skyfire Sword, his Magic Artifact, and then approached the lifeless body of Suo Wen, first taking his top-quality weapon, the spear. A top-quality weapon could be worth tens of thousands of Spirit Stones; it would be a waste not to take it.

"That old thing Cang Long’s disciple should have quite a few resources on him, right?" Jing Yan mused as he, under the watchful eyes of the crowd, removed a Sumeru Ring from Suo Wen’s finger.

Jing Yan had noticed the Sumeru Ring on Suo Wen’s finger long before.

Having given the Sumeru Ring a brief glance, Jing Yan casually stored it into his own Sumeru Ring.

"My god!" Jing Shanqu, the Family Head of the Jing Family, muttered in shock after regaining his composure.

Then, his gaze sharply turned towards Jing Yan.

"Jing Yan! Jing Yan, you...you actually killed Mr. Suo Wen, you are recklessly bold! Do you realize the kind of disaster your actions could bring upon the Jing Family?" Jing Shanqu roared, his face darkened with fury.

Jing Shanqu genuinely hadn’t expected Jing Yan to be able to kill Suo Wen. Now, his heart was filled not with joy, but with shock and anger. Before Jing Yan and Suo Wen had engaged in combat, he had anticipated Jing Yan being killed by Suo Wen. That way, at least, Deacon Cang Long wouldn’t harbor intense hostility towards Jing Yan.

But the result was that Jing Yan had slain Suo Wen.

Would Deacon Cang Long let this slide? He would surely seek revenge on the Jing Family!

In Jing Shanqu’s eyes, Jing Yan could die, but Suo Wen absolutely could not. That was why he was so agitated and angry at this moment.

"Jing Shanqu, go away! This is none of your business. Provoke me again, and don’t blame me for being inconsiderate of familial ties!" Jing Yan’s gaze hardened as he stared at Jing Shanqu, this good-for-nothing, who as the Family Head, showed such weakness in the face of people like Suo Wen, and now, after Jing Yan had slain Suo Wen, he even had the audacity to roar at him.

Jing Yan had already been patient enough.

If Jing Shanqu still failed to recognize his limits, he couldn’t blame Jing Yan for taking action against him.

"Whoosh!"

Jing Shanqu wanted to continue talking, but at that moment, a figure burst forth from the Jing Family Mansion with incredible speed.

"Fourth Elder?" Jing Yan’s senses were exceptionally keen.

Thus, while the vast majority of those present were still unable to clearly see due to the Fourth Elder Jing Tianying’s rapid movement, Jing Yan had already recognized that it was Fourth Elder Jing Tianying rushing out from the Jing Family Mansion.

"Jing Yan, are you alright?" Jing Tianying exhaled a sigh of relief upon seeing that Jing Yan was unharmed.

Jing Tianying had also just been informed by the Family guards that Jing Yan had gone outside the family grounds and stepped into the arena set up by Suo Wen and others. Upon hearing this news, he immediately rushed out at top speed. His intention in coming out was indeed to stop Jing Yan from clashing with Suo Wen and others, not because he feared Jing Yan offending them, but because he was worried Jing Yan might get injured.

Seeing that Jing Yan was unharmed, he naturally felt at ease. No matter what, he would do everything in his power to protect Jing Yan and absolutely would not let Jing Yan die at the hands of Suo Wen and the others.

"I’m fine!" Jing Yan, feeling the Fourth Elder’s concerned gaze, smiled nonchalantly and responded.

"That’s good, that’s good, you’ve been away from the family for such a long time, hurry back with me, the Clan Leader also wants to see you," said Jing Tianying with a nod.

"Hm?" Jing Tianying’s expression suddenly changed.

He had rushed out from within the Jing Family Mansion, and the first thing he saw was Jing Yan standing on the platform. As for the others, he hadn’t paid much attention to them yet. Now, however, his gaze landed on Suo Wen’s body lying on the platform, and his expression involuntarily changed.

"This..." Jing Tianying’s eyes widened a bit as he looked at Suo Wen’s body, then back at Jing Yan.

"Fourth Elder, these people set up a platform outside our Jing Family’s door to humiliate our family. As a Jing Family Disciple, I naturally had to consider our family’s honor, so I went up on the platform to fight this man called Suo Wen. He was not as strong as I, and I killed him outright," Jing Yan explained naturally.

He did so to maintain the face of the Jing Family.

From the perspective of justice, there was no problem in killing Suo Wen.

"Jing Yan, this Suo Wen seems to be a martial artist of the Innate Middle Stage Realm, how could you... kill him?" Jing Tianying looked at Jing Yan in astonishment.

That was just too preposterous, wasn’t it?

Jing Tianying clearly knew that two months ago, when Jing Yan left the Jing Family Mansion to go to the Moonlight Forest, he was at the Ninth Layer Heaven Realm of martial arts. Had only two or three months passed, and Jing Yan was now capable of killing someone like Suo Wen with Innate Middle Stage Cultivation?

"Fourth Elder, I have already stepped into the Innate Realm. Although I am only at the Early Innate Cultivation, killing a piece of trash like Suo Wen is not difficult," Jing Yan said with a smile.

"Innate?" A glint flashed in Jing Tianying’s eyes.

"Good, very good! Jing Yan, you truly are the most outstanding talent of the Jing Family, well done. Hahaha..." Jing Tianying laughed heartily, genuinely happy for Jing Yan.

Old Clan Leader, if you are watching from heaven, you should also feel relieved. Jing Yan is still that exceptionally gifted young lad of the Jing Family!

Amid Jing Tianying’s laughter, he also looked up at the sky, his mind filled with such thoughts.

Although it was said that, some time ago, Jing Yan’s realm had continually fallen, from Innate Cultivation down to the Martial Arts Third Layer Heaven, he had now risen anew. Moreover, it seemed he was even more monstrous than at the beginning.

Even at the beginning, when Jing Yan stepped into the Innate Realm, it would have been impossible for him to contend with a martial artist like Suo Wen. But now, Jing Yan was able to kill Suo Wen. If Jing Yan, currently at the Early Innate Realm, were to advance to the Late Innate or even the Peak of Innate, how strong would he be?

Jing Tianying, the more he looked at Jing Yan, the more boundless his joy became. His smile widened, filled with gratification.

"Hm? Zhao Yifeng, Cai Guanglin, you two are thinking of leaving?" At this moment, Jing Yan’s gaze shifted and fell upon the two figures trying to sneak away.

Zhao Yifeng and Cai Guanglin were terrified by the scene of Jing Yan killing Suo Wen with a single sword strike. Their own strength was even slightly less than Suo Wen’s. If Jing Yan could kill Suo Wen with a sword, would it be difficult to kill them?

Naturally, the two of them did not want to die. So, they were quietly trying to leave this place.

Jing Yan’s senses were sharp; although he was talking with the Fourth Elder, he almost instantly noticed the two trying to slip away.

How could Jing Yan possibly let these two scoundrels leave just like that? Weren’t they incredibly arrogant just a moment ago, not taking Jing Yan seriously at all?
