Nine Yang Sword Saint

Translator: Exodus Tales  Editor: Exodus Tales

Yang Dingtian slammed into Gan Lang like a cannonball.

Both of Gan Lang’s claws were right before his very eyes, and they were still bloody. But, in Yang Dingtian’s eyes, they weren’t threats.

He had managed to see through Gan Lang’s techniques!

He used the sword in his right hand to lock down Gan Lang’s right claw and used the Flame Feather in his left hand to chop it off!

The third move of Pig Killing Swordsmanship: chop off the head.

“Whoosh….”Blood spurted madly, and Gan Lang’s huge arm was chopped off, flying dozens of meters away.

Gan Lang, having already turned into a demonic beast, felt no pain and continued to rush towards Yang Dingtian with only one arm. His bloody claw was aiming at Yang Dingtian’s eyes.

The Eighth Disaster of the Xuwu Nine Disasters Sword: Nirvana!

Yang Dingtian’s right-hand sword swung towards Gan Lang’s bloody claw like the starry stars, like a rainstorm.

“Whoosh, Whoosh, Whoosh, Whoosh, Whoosh…”

His sword blossomed, and blood spurt all around effusively.

Gan Lang’s bloody claw and his left arm were destroyed inch by inch, and exploded inch by inch until it was all gone. In less than half a second, it completely shattered, turning into bloody mud.

Then, Yang Dingtian stabbed his right-hand sword into Gan Lang’s chest, piercing through his heart instantly.

Red light flashed from the Flame Feather in his left hand.

The third move of Pig Killing Swordsmanship: chop off the head.

Instantly, Gan Lang’s huge head flew into the sky, and blood shot out of his neck, spurting dozens of meters away.

The Eighth Disaster of the Xuwu Nine Disasters Sword: Nirvana!

The right-hand sword that was pierced into Gan Lang’s chest shook a little, and an array of sword flower glows came out.

“Bang…..”

The sound of an explosion boomed. The sword flower had bloomed to its extreme!

Gan Lang’s huge body was blown up, completely shattered!

Just like what Yang Dingtian said, this body-ripping devil had killed countless people in his life! Today, he let him have a taste of having his own body shattered!

…

As the countless bloody flowers fell, Yang Dingtian avoided all of them with lightning-fast speed, avoiding the blood rain. He then gradually sheathed his sword.

The few thousand disciples watching were all silent at first but then suddenly started to cheer.

Countless disciples were chanting Yang Dingtian’s name and were staring at Yang Dingtian with fiery gazes.

From this match, Yang Dingtian obtained the recognition from countless numbers of Cloud Sky City disciples, even though his cultivation might be lower than those in this crowd.

However, his amazing performance was definitely enough to earn the respect of anyone!

As for Elder Yang Yan and the rest on the higher stage, their faces had become incredibly serious and furious!

Qin Shaobai had completely lost his arrogant attitude. He sat in his seat with an ice-cold face and stared at Yang Dingtian.

Yang Dingtian turned around to look upward at Yang Yan.

The second match of the Wheel Challenge had ended. There was one more match left, and as long as he won, Yang Dingtian would achieve victory today. Then, he would be able to participate in the Grand Finale Competition for the position of City Lord.

Now, the main concern was: who would be the third person to challenge Yang Dingtian?

In order to kill him, Qin Shaobai had placed the powerful Gan Lang in the bottom ten rankings. That was already considered his backup plan. No one had ever thought that Yang Dingtian would break through and become a Xuan Martial Artist in five days, but Qin Shaobai had still prepared Gan Lang as a precaution.

However, the fact that Gan Lang would lose to Yang Dingtian was completely out of Qin Shaobai’s expectations. He never even thought of the possibility.

Now that Gan Lang was dead, had Yang Yan, Tang Boshao, and the rest’s plan failed?

Did they have another chess piece with which to kill Yang Dingtian?

…

Tang Boshao hadn’t recovered from the terror, but he still walked out and said coldly, “Yang Dingtian has obtained victory for the second match. Now, who is willing to be the third challenger? Get on the stage to fight. As long as you beat him, you will be able to stay in Cloud Sky City.”

After he finished speaking, Tang Boshao looked towards the remaining eight people. Of the original ten, two had been killed by Yang Dingtian.

Hearing Tang Boshao, not one of the remaining eight spoke up. None of them stepped out!

“Who is willing to be the third challenger to fight Yang Dingtian?” Tang Boshao asked again.

Still, no one answered.

It looked like everyone was afraid of him.

If no one came out to challenge Yang Dingtian, then he would win the Wheel Challenge by default.

Although Tang Boshao really didn’t want to see such a scenario, he had no choice but to say, “I’ll count to five. If no one steps up, then Yang Dingtian will win!”

“Five!”

“Four!”

The entire square was in complete silence. Everyone was staring at the eight remaining people to see if anyone would accept the challenge.

“Three!”

“Two!”

“One!”

“I’ll challenge. I’ll challenge Yang Dingtian!” Suddenly, a tall figure walked out from the eight.

Everyone was shocked! Who was this person?!

Gan Lang was so powerful and still died under Yang Dingtian’s sword. Who was this person that dared to challenge him?

This person wore long black robes, held a sword in his hand, and walked up to the stage.

Although he couldn’t clearly see his face, Yang Dingtian got a sense of familiarity from this person.

“Yang Dingtian, I remember that I’ve told you before that I will not let you go.” That person took off his robes, exposing his handsome and cold face.

It was Tang Li, Tang Boshao’s son!

The moment Tang Li revealed himself, everyone made shocked sounds!

“Shameless…..”

This time, it wasn’t just Yanyan and Mrs. Ximen who were furious but the thousands of Cloud Sky City disciples.

How could this person be so shameless as to come on stage?!

They actually prepared a second chess piece to kill Yang Dingtian!

Tang Li, a handsome youth of Cloud Sky City, was a Four-star Xuan Martial Warrior. Among all the youth in their 20s, he was ranked first. How could it be possible for him to have failed in the elimination battle?

A Four-star Xuan Martial Warrior was exactly five ranks higher than Yang Dingtian! It was not just a five-rank difference. The most deadly aspect was that it was a cross-realm fight!

Xuan Martial Artist was one realm while Xuan Martial Warrior was another.

As long as it was a cross-realm fight, it would be impossible to obtain victory. Even if Tang Li was merely a One-star Xuan Martial Warrior, his Xuan energy would be several times that of Yang Dingtian, not to mention the fact that he was a Four-star Xuan Warrior.

“If I don’t come back, you would have really been kicked out from Cloud Sky City. Your dad has really sacrificed a lot to kill me,” Yang Dingtian said.

“I’ve intended to leave Cloud Sky City anyways because I will soon become the son-in-law of the Northwest Qin Family,” Tang Li said coldly.

Then, he pulled out his long sword and said, “Okay, cut all the nonsense. Draw your sword!”

……

“Shameless!”

Ximen Lie shouted as he pulled out his sword. He looked at Elder Yang Yan and said, “Elder, you all don’t even want to keep your face just to kill Yang Dingtian? In front of thousands of Cloud Sky City disciples, you present such an evil and shameless show?”

Yang Yan’s facial muscle twitched a little, and he said coldly, “I have no clue what is happening. But, there aren’t any rules that don’t allow Tang Li to challenge Yang Dingtian.”

Ximen Lie burst into anger. He turned over to face the thousands of disciples and said, “All of Cloud Sky City’s disciples, are you all willing to just watch such a horrible event take place? Are you all just going to watch how Cloud Sky City’s prestige is destroyed? Do you all agree with this shameless match?”

Tang Li’s appearance had already made all those disciples furious. Now that Ximen Lie had fanned the flames, most of them stood up instantly and said, “We object!”

“Shameless, shameless….”

After someone started, more and more people gradually expressed their opposition.

Tang Boshao’s expression changed as he said, “What now? Are you all going to rebel? Sit back down immediately!”

However, no one sat down. Thousands of disciples stood up straight, protesting towards the Elder, fighting for justice on behalf of Yang Dingtian!

Tang Boshao looked at Yang Yan and the furious crowd. He was afraid of offending either.

He took a deep breath and said, “Tang Li, why did you use such an evil tactic to fight Yang Dingtian? Give everyone a reason!”

Tang Li’s face turned cold and said, “I am not fighting him. This is a life-and-death battle for us. This is because Yang Dingtian killed my best friend, Yang Qi, and I am about to take revenge for him!”

After he finished talking, everyone’s expressions changed. Yang Dingtian’s heart also sunk!

Yang Qi was the son of the Yang family who everyone paid attention to. He had gone missing for a few days, and now, Tang Li said that Yang Dingtian killed him.

If so, Tang Li truly did have a solid reason to fight Yang Dingtian.

Instantly, all of the Cloud Sky City disciples went quiet.

“Hahaha….” Ximen Lie laughed: “Tang Li, you say that Yang Dingtian killed Yang Qi. Where is the evidence?”

Tang Li laughed and said,” Six days ago, Yang Qi found out that Yang Dingtian was going into the Red Wilds to hunt demonic beasts, so he went to make trouble for him. Then, Yang Dingtian came back, but Yang Qi didn’t. Furthermore, his body wasn’t found. Who would it be if not Yang Dingtian?”

“Joke…,” Ximen Lie laughed and said. “Yang Dingtian was just an enlightener back then, and Yang Qi was way stronger than him. To say that Yang Dingtian killed Yang Qi, who would believe you?”

Tang Li laughed. “Today, before Yang Dingtian killed Gan Lang, who would have believed it!”

Their verbal battle was getting more and more intense!

Finally, Ximen Lie drew his sword. Mrs. Ximen drew her sword, and Ximen Yanyan also drew her sword.

On the opposite side, Tang Boshao, Tang Xin, Ximen Yan, and the dozens of people under the Elder all drew their swords.

They were about to fight right in front of thousands of Cloud Sky City disciples!

Both parties were ready to fight!

“Who dares to interfere…?” Suddenly, Yang Yan shouted.

Instantly, as if lightning had struck, all of the surrounding noise disappeared!

Then, Elder Yang Yan walked into the sage and said towards Yang Dingtian, “Yang Qi was my grandchild. Tang Li said that you killed him. How about you tell me? Did you kill him or not?”

Yang Dingtian shook his head.

“Okay then, in the name of City Lord Ximen, make an oath saying that you didn’t kill Yang Qi. If you lie, then City Lord Ximen’s soul would not be at peace down there,” Yang Yan said.

Yang Dingtian remained silent.

Yang Yan said, “You have only two options now. The first is to prove your innocence. The second is to battle Tang Li!”

Yang Dingtian took a deep breath and said, “I did not kill Yang Qi, but I will not use uncle Ximen’s prestigious name to make an oath, so I choose to battle Tang Li. But I have only one request. If I win, please return Yanyan’s Feng Yan sword!”

Yang Yan was shocked. “Agreed!”

Immediately, Yang Dingtian faced Yang Li and gradually drew his strange Millennium Owl Sword, welcoming the last match of the day.

The Strange Millennium Owl Sword was qualified to be listed as one of the world’s Divine Swords! Now, the battle will begin!
