The Sovereign’s Ascension

omething that could be described with words and Lin Yun had suffered greatly in the initial clash.

“Not bad.
No wonder the useless elder of my Ironblood Sword Gate couldn’t take a single attack of yours,” said Tang Ying coldly.
“Hand over the Flamedragon Fruit and I’ll let you live.
Otherwise, don’t blame me for taking your life.
You might be able to take a palm from me, but can you take ten of my palms?”

Damn it! Lin Yun was filled with grievance in his heart as this old man was too much.
He wanted to bring out the Indigoflame Thunderwhip to fight this person, but he knew that the commotion would definitely draw attention to him.
So he had no choice but to give up.

This old man might be strong and there was no way this old man would leave him behind.
But he knew that he would die if he was entangled by these people and attracted the Heavenly Soul Realm expert’s attention.

“Hey, didn’t you hear what the vice-sect master said?” The middle-aged man said in satisfaction at Lin Yun’s state.

“The Flamedragon Fruit has been eaten by my Dragon Blooded Horse,” said Lin Yun.

But the moment he finished, he could sense a boundless killing intent focused on him as a sinister smile appeared on Tang Ying’s wrinkly face.
“So sly at such a young age.
You must be courting death!”

Seeing that Tang Ying was about to approach him, Lin Yun quickly called out, “Wait! I might not have the Flamedragon Fruit anymore, but I have something else that might catch your attention.”

Lin Yun quickly tapped his interspatial pouch and took out the Indigo Thunderdemon Dragonvulture’s egg.
The egg was glittering and gorgeous, like a huge gem.

The moment he took it out, Tang Ying’s gaze was instantly glued onto it with greed filled in his eyes.
But he maintained his composure and said, “Come over and place it on the ground slowly.”

Lin Yun carefully stepped forward before placing the egg on the ground.
But no one noticed that the moment Lin Yun placed it on the ground, he applied some force and created a tiny crack on it.

But just when Lin Yun placed it on the ground, Tang Ying suddenly unleashed a violet aura as he stomped his foot on Lin Yun’s right hand.
This instantly produced a crackling sound as Lin Yun’s bones had broken under this stomp.

This made Lin Yun’s face turn pale from the pain, but he didn’t utter a single noise as he gritted his teeth to bear the pain.
After all, the hand was connected to the heart.
So one could imagine the pain he was going through.

“This is not bad and it’ll make up for the Flamedragon Fruit.
But you’ve injured someone from my Ironblood Sword Gate.
I can spare you, but not without some punishment,” said Tang Yin coldly as he kicked on Lin Yun’s chest.

With a crackling sound coming from Lin Yun’s chest, the middle-aged man watched with a brutal smile.
This kick broke Lin Yun’s ribs even with his Azure Dragon Enneaform.

But that wasn’t all as Lin Yun suffered several sword rays before he landed on the ground, leaving seven holes on his chest as blood began to flow out.
Suffering such heavy injuries, Lin Yun’s face was pale and his aura was weakened.

With a suction force, the egg flew into Tang Ying ’s hand where he inspected it with a satisfied expression.
Then, he looked at Lin Yun and barked, “Get lost!”

Getting back up on his feet, Lin Yun staggered as he tried walking away.
But he soon collapsed onto the ground after taking a few steps.
He took a brief rest before he got back on his feet and left the place.

“Vice-Sect Master, isn’t it too easy to let him leave so easily?” The middle-aged man said with a cold light flashing in his eyes.

“Have you seen someone in the Yang stage who can take my palm without dying? This brat’s background isn’t simple.
If I kill him, it’ll definitely attract the attention of his senior.
It’ll make things troublesome.
So I’m ensuring that he won’t ruin the young master’s matters,” said Tang Ying.

“Furthermore…” Tang Ying turned to look at the egg with joy flashing in his eyes, “The vitality in this egg is unprecedented and I might be able to reach the pinnacle Yin-Yang stage after I refine it!”

Lin Yun walked slowly in the forest, with blood dripping on the ground.
Tang Ying was so vicious in humiliating him just because he had a stronger cultivation.
Not only did he crush the bones in his palm and chest, he even left seven holes in his body.

Each of the holes were lethal and he would be dead if he didn’t have such a powerful physique.
But even so, he was now heavily injured after losing half of the blood in his body.

Just when his consciousness was about to blur out, he could hear a familiar clattering sound coming as Lil’ Red ran over in a pitiful state.
Evidently, it had suffered greatly with the Indigo Thunderdemon Dragonvulture chasing after it.

But when it saw Lin Yun on the ground, its face changed drastically especially after seeing the seven holes on Lin Yun’s chest.
It used its head to rub against Lin Yun’s face as if it would make Lin Yun feel better.

“Stop acting.
I won’t die,” said Lin Yun as he squeezed out a smile.

But Lil’ Red didn’t listen to him and suddenly ran off.
Not long later, Lil’ Red returned just when Lin Yun was about to lose his consciousness again.
This time, Lin Yun could see several more injuries on its body, especially its head.
But it had a fruit in its mouth as it chuckled goofily.

Then, Lil’ Red chewed the leaves around the fruit before placing the fruit on Lin Yun’s chest and pushing it gently with its head.
But Lin Yun couldn’t smile when he looked at its injuries, especially the one on its head.

Grabbing the fruit, Lin Yun couldn’t bring himself to swallow it.
But looking at the anticipation in the Dragon Blooded Horse’s eyes, he had no choice but to stuff it in his mouth.
When he swallowed it down, he couldn’t help tearing up.

At this moment, an unprecedented hatred flashed in his eyes as he gnashed his teeth, “Ironblood Sword Gate!”

At this moment, he swore to himself that he would never draw his sword again if he didn’t take revenge for this matter!
