Almost instantly, the faint golden light on Leng Guangting’s body flashed and then shattered!
The momentum of the sword hit Leng Guangting!
In an instant, he seemed to have been struck by lightning. His face turned pale, and he spat out a mouthful of blood!
Leng Guangting’s defensive enchanted armament had long been destroyed in the previous battle. Now, he was completely relying on his physical body.
Even though the power of the four streaks of Seven Arts Sword Energy had been weakened by more than half after destroying the token, it was still not something that a human body couldn’t withstand!
In an instant, Leng Guangting, who was already seriously injured, almost fainted. He bit his tongue hard and relied on the pain to stay awake.
At this moment, six people rushed out of the white fog at lightning speed. They held long swords and pounced at him.
Seeing this, Leng Guangting shouted with a ferocious expression. He threw out the inkstone. In the blink of an eye, it became the size of a house and spun around with an overwhelming aura!
In an instant, there were three consecutive m.u.f.fled sounds. Three figures charging over were instantly sent flying and smashed into the outer wall of the building more than ten meters away.
However, just as the inkstone was about to hit the fourth figure, it suddenly stopped, shrank, and fell to the ground.
A few meters away, Leng Guangting’s face was as pale as paper.
The inkstone consumed a lot of spiritual essence to begin with, and he was in a severely injured state. His spiritual essence had long been reduced to less than 10%.
Just then, he struck with Palm Lightnings twice, then used the inkstone to send the three clones flying. The remaining spiritual essence in his body was instantly sucked dry, and he no longer had the strength to control the Dharma treasure.
Taking advantage of this moment, the remaining three clones charged forward like lightning.
Leng Guangting only had time to take out a talisman and activated his blood essence to release lightning to repel two clones. In the next second, he felt a sharp pain in his chest. He looked down and saw that a Six Yang Talisman Sword had already pierced deep into his chest!
An intense weakness burst out of his body like a tide, and the light in Leng Guangting’s eyes quickly dimmed.
He raised his head to look at Lin Shen in front of him, then looked around and saw all the other “Lin Shen” slowly got up. Be it their faces or his aura, they were exactly the same as the person in front of him. Doubt and confusion flashed across his eyes, but in the end, they all turned into unwillingness and despair.
Swoosh!
Lin Shen pulled out his talisman sword and slashed Leng Guangting’s head off. After confirming that he was deader than dead, he quickly took off the storage ring on Leng Guangting’s hand and picked up the inkstone. Then, he put away his clones and quickly left the scene.
Not long after Lin Shen left, four streams of light tore through the sky and approached. In the blink of an eye, they landed in the middle of the road.
The light dissipated, revealing three men and one woman.
The four of them looked at the headless corpse on the ground at the same time. With a sweep of their spiritual sense, they could clearly see the surrounding situation.
“This aura… is a little strange!” A look of surprise flashed across Cheng Sheng’s face.
Xia Mengran and the other two vice hall masters also frowned.
From their senses, there were only two different auras at the scene.
Apart from Leng Guangting, the remaining aura should come from the person who killed him.
However, the aura left behind by that person was extremely strange.
The aura of a cultivator was as conspicuous as fire in the senses of a cultivator master.
Different auras had different strengths, so the intensity of the “flames” would also be different.
Experienced cultivator masters could roughly deduce the number of people fighting and the process of the battle.
However, the remaining aura at the scene… How should they put it? If not for the fact that there were only two different auras at the scene, they would have thought that this was a chaotic battle between six or seven people.
“Cheng!”
Xia Mengran turned to look at Cheng Sheng.
The latter took the hint and immediately activated his spiritual sense to chase after the remaining aura.
However, after a while, Chong Sheng returned and shook his head slightly at Xia Mengran.
“The other party is very cunning. He should have a talisman or Dharma treasure to hide his aura. It’s been a long time since the battle. I lost track of his aura halfway.”
Xia Mengran frowned, but she knew that she couldn’t blame Cheng Sheng. She could only grit her teeth and suppress her anger.
Cheng Sheng glanced at her and said carefully, “Ma’am, if I’m correct, that person should be the mastermind who manipulated h.e.l.l Hornets and lured us to Leng Guangting’s residence. He took advantage of the battle between Leng Guangting and Yuan Ming and attacked when Leng Guangting fled in panic…” “Do I need you to tell me that?” Xia Mengran cut Cheng Sheng off. “I won’t let go of anyone who dares to use the Martial Enforcement Hall as a p.a.w.n. Go and find them. If you can’t find them, I’ll only blame you!”
The three hall masters looked at each other and nodded in unison.
After circling around Dragonside City and making sure that no one was following him, Lin Shen returned to the Nine Yang Academy.
After returning to the wooden building, Lin Shen sorted out the entire matter.
Leng Guangting was already dead, and he had never revealed any information about Lin Shen. The others probably wouldn’t think that Leng Guangting’s death was related to him.
If there were any other loopholes, it would be the battle in the villa.
The commotion caused by the battle was so great that the entire villa turned into ruins. Unless everyone in the Martial Enforcement Hall was blind or deaf, it was impossible for them not to react.
How to explain this matter was a problem.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Shen made up his mind. He temporarily put this matter aside and took out the inkstone and storage ring he had obtained from Leng Guangting.
The inkstone that wasn’t activated by spiritual essence was only the size of a palm. It looked like an ordinary inkstone..
