    Chapter 0510: Killing Two in Succession

    Tian Chuao laughed heartily, "So what if I don't fit in? Are you going to kill me? Killing someone inside the Sword and Blade Manor? That's a death wish!"

    "Don't worry, I'll have a chance to kill you!" Tian Ruoleng wished she could slash Tian Chuao with a blade, her words filled with murderous intent.

    Tian Chuao wasn't worried at all and turned to go back to his room.

    "Let's go back and clean our rooms!" Yue Wulan said.

    Just as she was about to leave, a golden-robed elder hurriedly entered.

    In the Sword and Blade Manor, those who wear golden robes are elders!

    This elder was only a Spirit Martial realm warrior.

    In fact, Martial Lords in the Xuan Martial realm are very rare in the Sword and Blade Manor. If any exist, they're usually in seclusion.

    Of course, the Sword and Blade Manor originally had many Martial Lords, but most have gone to the Immortal Sects.

    As a result, the Immortal Sects wield immense power, absorbing Martial Lords from many large and small sects and families.

    Even warriors from the Five Star Gates, once they reach the Xuan Martial realm and become Martial Lords, will head to the Immortal Sects.

    "Sixth Uncle, why are you here?"

    Yue Wulan was surprised to see the golden-robed elder and called out.

    This golden-robed elder was also from the Yue family, named Yue Liang, and was an elder in the Council of Elders.

    "Wulan, I've heard all about you and Qin Yun!" Yue Liang glared coldly at Qin Yun as soon as he entered: "Qin Yun, you stay away from Wulan!"

    Yue Wulan frowned slightly and quickly asked, "Sixth Uncle, why?"

    "Why? Yue Wulan, you were named one of the five great beauties of Aoxing Prefecture by the Mystic Patterns Hall! You embody the honor of our Yue family. If you want to be with other men, you must have the consent of our Yue family!"

    "And you, ready to throw yourself away so casually! You've already enraged the elders of our Yue family branch in Aoxing Prefecture!"

    Yue Liang's voice was full of sternness and anger.

    Qin Yun could easily guess the Yue family's scheme—they just wanted to marry Yue Wulan off to a great family for an alliance!

    Or to marry her off to a disciple of an Immortal Sect!

    "Who I choose to be with is my own damn business!" Yue Wulan said with a frosty face, her voice filled with anger.

    Yue Liang shouted angrily, "How dare you defy us! We've already arranged for Liu Chongsheng to meet you. If he approves, you will be paired together, and he will also find a way to get you into the Immortal Sect!"

    Qin Yun found it quite a coincidence that Yue Wulan was arranged to be with Liu Chongsheng!

    This was also the reason why the Yue family was furious, because Yue Wulan was with Qin Yun, and Qin Yun was Liu Chongsheng's mortal enemy.

    "Perfect! That's all the more reason I want to be with Qin Yun!" Yue Wulan suddenly laughed coldly, "A loser who got slapped by Qin Yun wants to marry me? I spit on him!"

    "You're driving me mad!"

    Yue Liang exploded with rage, lunged forward, and struck at Yue Wulan's face with a furious swing.

    Tian Ruoleng and the others were stunned, never expecting the elder to actually hit Yue Wulan!

    Yue Liang's gaunt palm contained immense power, causing the ground to quake faintly as it descended!

    The palm was about to strike Yue Wulan's jade-like face...

    Suddenly, a muffled thud echoed.

    Qin Yun swiftly struck, his fist wreathed in black energy, emitting a deep, rumbling shockwave that slammed into Yue Liang's abdomen!

    "Ah..."

    Caught off guard, Yue Liang was hurled away by Qin Yun's punch, blood gushing from his mouth.

    Yue Wulan was also taken aback; she hadn't had time to dodge, much less retaliate, given the elder's formidable strength!

    Yet, Qin Yun's punch had hurtled Yue Liang dozens of meters!

    "You... you..."

    Clearly, after uttering two words, Yue Liang spat out a mouthful of blood.

    Tian Ruoleng, Ji Changjian, Ji Changqiang, and Yue Wulan all looked on in astonishment!

    Qin Yun, at the Ninth Layer Martial Path, had wounded a martial master with a single punch!

    "Trespassing into the sword courtyard and attacking people, you're asking for a beating!" Qin Yun's expression was cold, his eyes emanating black energy, his fist sparking with black lightning.

    "Black Martial Soul! A Black Thunder Martial Soul?" Ji Changjian inhaled sharply in shock.

    The higher the level of the Martial Soul, the more powerful force it unleashes!

    Even in the Spirit Barrens, a Black Martial Soul was extremely rare, let alone a ferocious Black Thunder Martial Soul!

    Most astonishingly, someone with a single spirit meridian could break the Dark Soul Curse and reach the Ninth Layer Martial Path at such a young age!

    In the Spirit Barrens, it usually took the combined efforts of an entire clan to aid in breaking the Dark Soul Curse!

    "You... you just wait!" Yue Liang's arm shook with fury as he pointed at Qin Yun and Yue Wulan.

    "You old fool, you dare to hit me?"

    Yue Wulan's beautiful eyes gleamed with icy fury, her figure streaking forward like the wind!

    A long blade materialized in her hand, and with a single slash, she severed Yue Liang's arm.

    "Ah..." Yue Liang bellowed in agony: "You little wench!"

    "Shut up!"

    Yue Wulan was furious, her face filled with killing intent.

    She swung her blade again, this time striking Yue Liang's shoulder, severing his other arm at the shoulder.

    Yue Liang had truly not expected to be so severely injured by Qin Yun's punch earlier!

    Qin Yun's punch had been accompanied by thunder and shockwave force, violently impacting his dantian and heart.

    Without any defense, even a Spirit Martial Realm expert would be overwhelmed.

    And now, Yue Wulan suddenly appeared and severed both of his arms!

    "Kill him!"

    Tian Ruoleng, perhaps overcome by bloodlust, swiftly flew over and with a single slash, beheaded Yue Liang.

    The Ji Clan Twin Furies gulped nervously, their faces filled with terror as they exchanged glances!

    Yue Wulan quickly took out a small furnace, placed Yue Liang's body inside, and then hurriedly wiped away the bloodstains at the scene!

    Creak, creak, creak...

    Suddenly, someone opened the door and came out—it was Tian Chuao!

    He had stayed inside but had a rough idea of what was happening outside.

    As soon as Tian Chuao emerged, he tried to take to the skies, but the Ji Clan Twin Furies rushed up and knocked him down!

    "You..."

    Tian Chuao had just opened his mouth when Tian Ruoleng hurled a burst of energy, forming a block of ice that she forced into his mouth.

    "You can die too!"

    Yue Wulan darted forward with lightning speed, cleanly beheading Tian Chuao with a single slash.

    Tian Ruoleng, gripping her knife tightly, said with a hint of annoyance, "He's from my Tian family, I should have been the one to kill him!"

    "Didn't you also kill that old man? We're even!" Yue Wulan said with a sly grin.

    Qin Yun was both amused and exasperated; these two women were even more reckless than he was.

    He thought that injuring Yue Liang and letting him leave should have sufficed, considering Yue Liang's arrogance.

    But he never expected Yue Wulan to suddenly rush in and chop off both of Yue Liang's arms.

    Then Tian Ruoleng stepped forward and with a single slash, beheaded Yue Liang!

    Everything unfolded so quickly that he was caught completely off guard!

    The Ji Clan Twin Furies, afraid they might be eliminated, rushed over to stop Tian Chuao, proving their willingness to join Qin Yun and the others.

    Yue Wulan, still fuming from not being able to kill Yue Liang, saw Tian Chuao being stopped and rushed in and finished him off with a slash.

    They quickly cleaned up the area, completely erasing Yue Liang's aura and wiping away all traces of the battle.

    "If anyone asks, we'll just play dumb!"

    Yue Wulan flashed a sweet smile, very pleased after having just killed two people.

    "Let's all get some rest!" Tian Ruoleng, holding her box, returned to her room.

    Qin Yun opened the box given by Dao Fan and looked inside; there was a low-tier spirit blade, several sets of black clothes, and a pass token that required a blood oath to activate.

    The five of them each retreated to their rooms.

    In the Sword and Saber Manor, killing a senior elder and a new recruit was an extremely serious matter!

    Yet Qin Yun and the others acted as if nothing had happened, calmly heading back to their rooms to rest.

    No one would ever expect that a newly recruited disciple could kill a senior elder!

    ...

    Late at night, Qin Yun, lying in bed, suddenly opened his eyes.

    He saw Tian Ruoleng and Yue Wulan silently slip through the window.

    Both were decked out in the Blade Hall's black, skin-tight outfits, their figures sharply defined by the snug clothing.

    The two women each had their own unique charm, both fiery and alluring!

    One was icy to the core, the other enchantingly seductive, yet both equally ruthless!

    Qin Yun bolted upright and demanded, "What are you two sneaking around for?"

    "Old Fan's still not back! We're here to ask if you're up for taking out the Ji Clan Twin Furies," Tian Ruoleng said, her voice low.

    "Although they stopped Tian Chuao, they didn't lift a finger the entire time, so they could still escape blame," Yue Wulan nodded.

    Qin Yun shook his head, "They've been holed up in their room the whole time! If they had any ulterior motives, they'd have bolted by now!"

    "Relax, these two are solid! Otherwise, they wouldn't have made it onto Sword Blind's team!" Qin Yun continued. "Sword Blind might be blind in the eyes, but not in the heart; he's got a sharp eye for people!"

    "Also, if those two vanish, we'll be even more suspicious!"

    Yue Wulan shot a glance at Tian Ruoleng and said, "Fine, I'll follow your lead!"

    "Got it!" Tian Ruoleng swiftly leaped out the window and headed back to her room.

    "Qin Gongzi, care for some company tonight?" Yue Wulan purred, her body swaying seductively as she approached Qin Yun, her voice dripping with allure.

    "No thanks, you'd better go keep Tian Ruoleng company," Qin Yun grinned, motioning towards the window with a 'after you' gesture.

    Yue Wulan pouted, stamped her foot in frustration, and then leaped out the window.

    "These two are such a handful!"

    Qin Yun stood by the window, his eyes fixed on the bright moon, muttering, "Sister Yang, what on earth are you up to?"

    As he spoke, he took out a human skin mask, quickly crafted it into the likeness of Tian Chuao, and left the Blade Courtyard.

    ...

    At dawn the next day, the five of them gathered in the courtyard!

    When Dao Fan got back and noticed Tian Chuao was missing, he asked where he'd gone.

    Qin Yun and the others played dumb, shaking their heads and claiming they had no idea.

    Just as Dao Fan's suspicions mounted, a middle-aged man in white suddenly walked in and said coldly, "Dao Fan, a disciple saw Tian Chuao from your courtyard sneaking around outside last night!"

    That was Qin Yun, who had disguised himself as Tian Chuao the previous night. Skilled in artifact crafting, whipping up a human skin mask was child's play for him.

    The man in white added, "And Elder Yue Liang is dead!"
