When Ye Wushuang said they were coming directly for the Invincible Supreme Being, it wasn’t because they had specially come to challenge the Zheng Tian Sect’s Invincible Supreme Being.
It was because Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress had discovered that the real evildoer within the Zheng Tian Sect was precisely their Invincible Supreme Being.
It was their Invincible Supreme Being who took the lead, and that’s why countless people below him in the Zheng Tian Sect were able to carry out these wicked deeds.
Therefore, Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress’s top priority upon arriving was to eliminate the primary culprit.
As for the others, anyone who had committed crimes would not be spared.
However, many people didn’t understand Ye Wushuang’s words.
After he said this, someone immediately became furious.
“How dare you! You speak disrespectfully of our patriarch—are you looking to die?!”
As soon as this roar rang out, a tall figure immediately appeared before Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress.
This tall figure was very high in stature, but lean and wiry, with long, narrow eyebrows and eyes.
Anyone could tell at a glance that this was a harsh and unkind person.
But nonetheless, his cultivation level was not low—he was a Supreme Realm expert.
After such a person appeared, the members of the Zheng Tian Sect all took several steps back.
“It’s the Third Elder! The Third Elder is here!!”
“I never expected the Third Elder to show up directly—this is quite surprising!!”
“These people actually dared to say they came looking for our patriarch, so of course the Third Elder is furious! Now that the Third Elder is here, he’s surely going to take their lives!!”
Their Third Elder was a powerful Supreme Realm expert.
His strength could rank among the top few within the Zheng Tian Sect.
Because of this, the appearance of the Third Elder gave the people of the Zheng Tian Sect great confidence, making them all believe that Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress were surely doomed.
However, Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress showed no panic whatsoever upon seeing the Third Elder.
In fact, they even sized up this Third Elder.
They had also heard of the reputation of the Zheng Tian Sect’s Third Elder, and they knew that he was one of the evildoers.
So, after the Third Elder appeared, Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress had already made up their minds: this man could be killed.
The Third Elder, of course, had no idea about this.
He noticed that Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress were only at the Immortal King Realm and Immortal Emperor Realm respectively.
So he instantly became arrogant.
“What’s wrong? Cat got your tongues?”
“Aren’t you the Yin-Yang Bandits who’ve supposedly killed Supreme Realm experts? Why are you chickening out now?”
“Weren’t you just badmouthing our Zheng Tian Sect’s patriarch? Why aren’t you saying anything now?”
Since Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress didn’t speak, the Third Elder took it as them backing down.
He had seen far too many people like this, who only ran their mouths.
So his gaze was like lightning, staring at Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress with killing intent.
But while such an aura might work on others,
it had no effect whatsoever on Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress.
At that moment, Ye Wushuang calmly drew his treasured sword.
“I was just thinking about whether you deserve to die.”
“Now, I’m sure of it—you really do deserve to die!!”
As Ye Wushuang finished speaking, his aura suddenly surged tenfold.
Then, he thrust a sharp sword strike toward the Third Elder.
To everyone else, this sharp sword strike seemed unremarkable.
Because Ye Wushuang’s sword didn’t look fast, and there wasn’t even any powerful aura behind it.
If such a sword strike were thrust out, it probably couldn’t even hurt an ordinary cultivator,
let alone a Supreme Realm expert like the Zheng Tian Sect’s Third Elder.
Because of this, when Ye Wushuang thrust out this sword, many people actually wanted to laugh.
But at that moment, the Zheng Tian Sect’s Third Elder didn’t feel like laughing at all.
What seemed extremely simple to everyone else was utterly deadly in his eyes.
He seemed to see a gigantic sword spanning the heavens, filling the entire sky, surrounding him on all sides, completely sealing him off.
Then, with a gentle thrust, countless sword intents came stabbing toward him from all directions under the heavens.
That feeling was far too terrifying.
So terrifying that the Zheng Tian Sect’s Third Elder began to tremble in fear.
“Y-You… are you an Invincible Supreme Being?!”
That was the Third Elder’s final doubt.
He had already realized that this feeling was exactly what it felt like to face an Invincible Supreme Being.
The sword strike Ye Wushuang had thrust out was one that contained the very laws of swordsmanship.
Only such a sword technique could apply such immense pressure on him, making him feel that death was certain.
But how could this be possible?
The person before him wasn’t any Invincible Supreme Being at all—he was just an Immortal King Realm cultivator whose combat power had increased tenfold!
Ye Wushuang didn’t answer the doubts in the Zheng Tian Sect’s Third Elder’s heart.
After thrusting that killing sword strike, Ye Wushuang sheathed his treasured sword.
Then, the members of the Zheng Tian Sect watched as their Third Elder, struck by the sword, collapsed in a pool of blood.
Not only had Ye Wushuang struck his vital point, but his very spirit and soul had been completely annihilated.
No one had expected such an outcome.
Because of this, the people of the Zheng Tian Sect were terrified to the extreme.
“Ah! The… the Third Elder is dead?!”
“Wh-What happened? Was our Third Elder hit by that sword?!”
“I… I don’t understand either. It was such a simple sword strike—couldn’t the Third Elder dodge it?!”
“Ah! They… they…!”
At that moment, the people of the Zheng Tian Sect didn’t even know how to express the fear in their hearts.
They had originally thought that with the appearance of their Third Elder, he would surely deal with Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress.
But they never expected that their Third Elder couldn’t even last a single move against Ye Wushuang’s sword.
To them, this was far too unbelievable.
After all, their Third Elder was a genuine Supreme Realm expert.
No matter which major world such a Supreme Realm expert was placed in, he could be considered a regional overlord.
Even on the battlefields of the Two Realms Mountain, he could have easily become a general.
And yet, such a powerful existence was taken down with a single sword strike.
And not only that—it was done right in front of their eyes, with a light, effortless swing of the sword.
To them, this was simply beyond belief.
Many of them even wondered if they were hallucinating.
But the continuous gasps of shock, along with the steady advance of Ye Wushuang and the Divine Dragon Empress, told the people of the Zheng Tian Sect that they weren’t dreaming—everything that had just happened was real.
Their Third Elder had truly been killed by a single sword strike.
Someone had actually killed a Supreme Realm expert with one sword.
The impact of this event on them was far too great.
So great that all of these ordinary cultivators were left speechless, their hearts filled with immense fear.
