Chapter 2091 - 2092: Ruthless Annihilation

Ling Zhenfei was taken aback, and the three disciples of Tianling Spirit Palace were also stunned. Originally, they thought they were doomed, but only then realized they were saved.

As the second sword came, a voice was heard: "We are all human cultivators, why must we slaughter one another!"

Ling Zhenfei looked in the direction of the voice and saw a figure approaching from afar.

This person flew very fast and was soon in front of Ling Zhenfei and the others.

Seeing this person, Ling Zhenfei was momentarily stunned because he recognized him from the time in the Provincial City drinking with Sun Wei, Zhang Zhenlin, and Murong Liuqing, witnessing someone challenge one of the Four Young Masters, Ji Tianlang.

Though also of the Dawen Realm, he could fly two Dawen cultivators with a single strike, shocking Ling Zhenfei at the time; this person was Sword God Liu Feiyang.

At this moment, Liu Feiyang stood in front of Ling Zhenfei, his aura naturally already at the Pursue Heart State.

From Liu Feiyang's previous sword, it's apparent that he not only achieved his heart's pursuit but also integrated his heart-pursuing item, truly formidable.

Liu Feiyang is called Sword God, a name that might mean little to experts, yet among peers, it signifies a recognition of Liu Feiyang's prowess.

His obsession with swords has clearly reached a fervent level, so upon achieving Pursue Heart State, it's only natural to unite with his sword.

Ling Zhenfei felt a chill; before, dealing with several Pursue Heart masters alone and with a bird, he hadn't felt fear.

Those Foreign Tribe People had strange and frightening faces, but Ling Zhenfei felt indifferent, whereas this person standing calmly yet pressured him immensely.

Ling Zhenfei said: "So it's Sword God Liu Feiyang, my apologies!"

Liu Feiyang was puzzled and replied: "You know me, yet I don't know you."

Ling Zhenfei said: "You are Sword God, well-known, so of course I know you. Whereas I'm just an unknown nobody, so you not knowing me is normal."

Liu Feiyang scrutinized Ling Zhenfei and said: "No, your previous strike was incredibly powerful, even comparable to the Four Young Masters, how can you be an unknown novice."

At this moment, the three from Tianling Palace said to Liu Feiyang: "Hero Liu, this man is a human traitor, allied with foreign races. Look, the woman behind him is the princess of the elf tribe, and they're here to kill us. Quickly, kill him."

Liu Feiyang furrowed his brow at this, glancing at the Elf Princess behind Ling Zhenfei. Though covered by a blanket, Liu Feiyang could see the Elf Princess at a glance.

Ling Zhenfei said: "Sword God Liu, this is all a misunderstanding, I'm no human traitor. Being born human, how can that be treachery?"

He continued: "As for whether you're allied with foreign races, I'm not interested, but you just killed two human cultivators, whose bodies now lie at your feet, something you can't deny."

Ling Zhenfei nodded: "Indeed, these two died by my blade, yet they needn't have died—they pursued me to kill, should I wait idly to be slain?"

Then one from Tianling Palace shouted: "Hero Liu, don't listen to this traitor's nonsense. We merely intended to bring back that foreign demoness, never to kill, let alone target him."

"Indeed, this person is a Pursue Heart State expert, we are but Dawen Realm—how could we intend to kill him? Hero Liu, this man aims to insult your intelligence."

The three grasped Liu Feiyang as their backing and wouldn't let it pass, saying all sorts of things to condemn Ling Zhenfei, as if he were unimaginably evil.

Ling Zhenfei glanced at the three and said: "Once as a Loose Cultivator, I admired the Righteous Sect deeply, but today shows their true colors."

Liu Feiyang said: "Now, with both evidence and witness, have you any more to say?"

Ling Zhenfei replied: "I've nothing to add, but I remind Sword God Liu not to assume an all-knowing judge's stance—do you truly know the truth?"

Liu Feiyang responded: "From ancient times, taking life warrants reparation; that seems reasonable."

Ling Zhenfei said: "Alright, since you've decided, I've nothing more to say."

Liu Feiyang said: "If I hadn't encountered this, there'd be no issue, but now that I have, I'll see it through."

Ling Zhenfei said: "If that's so, stop wasting words; let's fight, I believe this will have its judgment."

Liu Feiyang held his sword, gently looking at it; the sword was returned to its scabbard at the moment.

Yet everyone seemed to see the sword inside the scabbard—the sword appeared to shake on its own, the scabbard unmoving, only the sword within did.

The Sword God's blade is certainly no ordinary sword, besides—even ordinary swords in Liu Feiyang's hands are extraordinary.

The sword has sword intent and combat will, seemingly aware this is an interesting opponent.

Liu Feiyang said: "Under my sword, no unnamed rabble survives; name yourself."

Ling Zhenfei's Tang sword was now in hand; though his left arm couldn't use Northern Spiritual Energy, the hand holding the scabbard didn't need it, the right hand suffices.

Currently, Ling Zhenfei's right-hand brims with Northern Spiritual Energy; he remains unsure of Liu Feiyang's full power but knows Liu Feiyang is the strongest adversary he's met.

Thus, Northern Spiritual Energy fills Ling Zhenfei's hand; Iaido isn't lightly used, but when it does—it must compel Liu Feiyang's respect.

Ling Zhenfei said: "I am Ling Zhenfei, from Binyang, a Loose Cultivator without a teacher."

Liu Feiyang said: "To be a Loose Cultivator with such prowess—truly impressive."

Ling Zhenfei knew Liu Feiyang was also a Loose Cultivator and said: "Likewise."

The two stood face to face, not far apart, but to experts of their Realm, distance never truly mattered.

Between them, in the air subtly flowed a mighty Northern Spiritual Energy, as if someone deliberately stirred it powerfully.

In fact, this was merely the result of their mutual and secret manipulation, causing energetic interplay.

Neither showed outward Northern Spiritual Energy; Pursue Heart State cultivators' Northern Spiritual Energy is instantaneous, meaning force isn't constantly needed.

The two gazed at each other, but neither struck, reluctant to be the first to act.

The first to act typically exposes a flaw.

Liu Feiyang said: "Among the renowned, you may strike first."

Ling Zhenfei laughed, saying: "I think Sword God should strike first, before such a celebrated elder, how could I dare strike first?"

Liu Feiyang said: "I'm no elder; we are peers, I merely am slightly older."
