First Immortal of the Sword

Chapter 1500 - Beneath His Notice

Everyone was astonished.

In the tit took to snap his fingers, Su Yi killed every expert of the Divine Spirit Immortal Sect right in front of Qin Suxin!

This completely overturned the crowd’s predictions. Witnessing this bloody scene left their scalps numb with fright, and their hearts and minds shook.

Just how domineering is this legendary expert of the Eastern Profound Star Domain?

Over in the Northern Abyss Star Domain’s camp, Wen Xiuzhu’s eyes shone with a strange light. Interesting. Not even Qin Suxin could stop him.

She understood Qin Suxin’s abilities. Even her senior apprentice brother, Yu Chen, had said that Qin Suxin was far beyond a “typical” unrivaled elite. No, he’d becthe leading figure of her star domain because... she was its chosen daughter, blessed by fate!

It wasn’t just that her cultivation was extraordinary. It was fate’s blessing that let her suppress the competition and rise to singular prominence!

Yet now, Qin Suxin had failed to stop Su Yi from killing those people!

Not bad. Truly not bad! Ren Changqing’s eyes lit up, and his eyes blazed with the will to fight. Someone truly incredible has appeared in the Eastern Profound Star Domain’s ranks!”

He’d witnessed the whole exchange clearly.

The first tSu Yi attacked, Qin Suxin obviously held back. She’d underestimated Su Yi’s strength, letting him catch her off guard.

The second time, she was already prepared for his strength, and she used her full might, but his sword qi still tripped her up.

Sure, she might have neutralized it in the blink of an eye.

But it delayed her just long enough that she was one step too late to stop Su Yi from killing the members of the Divine Spirit Immortal Sect!

All of this made it clear just how terrifyingly strong Su Yi was.

The experts of the Northern Abyss, Southern Flame, and Western Chill Star Domains were all stunned. All of their expressions shifted.

Rumors were ultimately just rumors. Prior to this, none of them had seen Su Yi’s strength with their own two eyes.

Now that they’d witnessed his abilities, they finally understood just how terrifying this young man who’d made it here all the way from the Third Battleground was!

The experts of the Eastern Profound Star Domain were the calmest of all. When they saw the astonishment written all over the other experts’ faces, they were inwardly jubilant.

“The chickens have been killed, and the monkeys have been warned.” Su Yi turned to face Qin Suxin. “How do you feel?”

Qin Suxin’s beautiful face was frosty, and her eyes shone with unconcealed rage. “Brazen, unbridled murder. Is that your new rule?”

Su Yi shook his head. “No. My rule is this: no matter who you are, you have to pay for your mistakes!”

Qin Suxin said coldly, “And how do you plan to determine right and wrong?”

Su Yi pointed to himself. “When I say someone is wrong, they’re wrong.”

Qin Suxin had nothing to say to that.

“Su Yi! You’re being blatantly unreasonable!” another expert of the Western Chill Star Domain shouted indignantly.

Su Yi nodded. “Yes, you’re right.”

“....”

He calmly continued, “Earlier, I hadn’t yet cto the First Battleground. Naturally, it was up to you to set the rules. But now that I’m here, the rules have to change!”

Rules existed on the edge of a sword. Logic sided with whoever’s fist was bigger!

When Qin Suxin, Yu Chen, and Ren Changqing set the rules, they didn’t bother asking how the Eastern Profound Star Domain felt.

Why?

It was simple: the Eastern Profound Star Domain had no leader, and they were too weak!

This was reality. The strong set the rules, and the weak... could only obey!

Qin Suxin turned to look at the distant Ren Changqing. “We set the rules together. Do you really plan to just watch the show now?”

Ren Changqing’s brow furrowed. It might have seemed that Su Yi was just targeting Su Yi, but in truth, he was trampling the dignity of all three leading experts!

“And what is the Northern Abyss Star Domain’s stance?” Without even waiting for Ren Changqing to respond, Qin Suxin turned toward Wen Xiuzhu.

There was no doubt about it; she refused to let others use her as a weapon, and she wanted to drag the other two major camps underwater with her!

Wen Xiuzhu said, “Senior Apprentice Brother Yu Chen is still in seclusion. I trust that if he were here, he’d give you a definite answer.”

Ren Changqing said, “I think we really need Fellow Daoist Yu Chen’s opinion here.”

Qin Suxin laughed coldly. “When you encounter a powerful opponent, you’ll disregard even your own rules?”

Her voice was rife with mockery.

Ren Changqing fell silent, and Wen Xiuzhu smiled. Neither of them answered.

Reality had always been like this. In the face of a true expert, rules had always been fragile. If they didn’t want to follow the rules, the rules might as well not exist for them.

“Today, Su Yi brazenly murdered experts of the Western Chill Star Domain, but tomorrow, he might well do the sto you!” said Qin Suxin.

She’d only just said this when Su Yi interrupted her. “No need to wait until tomorrow. There’s another group I want to kill today.”

“????” The crowd was baffled.

Ren Changqing and Wen Xiuzhu’s brows furrowed.

Earlier, they’d remained uninvolved, not because they were afraid of Su Yi, but because they didn’t want to get mixed up in this. They wanted to stop Qin Suxin from dragging them underwater.

Who’d have thought Su Yi wouldn’t let up even after killing all those people?

“Does that mean you’re dead set on opposing the Western Chill Star Domain until the bitter end?” Qin Suxin was obviously enraged.

“You’re jumping to conclusions. I’m not an indiscriminate killer. I only kill those who’ve done wrong,” said Su Yi. He was already walking toward the Northern Chill Star Domain.

Qin Suxin froze and suppressed her bellyful of fire. Does this guy plan to attack the Northern Abyss Star Domain too?

It wasn’t just her. Everyone else noticed what Su Yi was doing too, and all of them looked bewildered.

This guy... is simply too ferocious, isn’t he? Ren Changqing was unwittingly stunned.

The Northern Abyss Star Domain was the strongest of the four! The Western Chill and Southern FlStar Domains would have to work together to compete with them!

Yet now, Su Yi was pointing his sword at them immediately after offending the Western Chill Star Domain. Who wouldn’t have been surprised?

“You... You want to kill people from our Northern Abyss Star Domain!?” Wen Xiuzhu was flabbergasted.

And here she’d just wanted to watch the show. She would never have thought the “show” would take place in her camp!

“In my eyes, those who’ve committed crimes all must pay with their lives. It doesn’t matter which camp they’re from," said Su Yi. He stood not far away.

Wen Xiuzhu’s eyes flashed. “Then might I ask who among us you consider ‘criminals?’”

Su Yi didn’t even pause to think. “Li Xiaolin.”

The experts of the Northern Abyss Star Domain all subconsciously glanced at the sperson.

A man in black, handsome, but with an inhuman quality about him.

This was Li Xiaolin!

His expression instantly shifted, and he was so angry that he laughed. “There’s no grudge between us, so why target me?”

“You’re wrong,” said Su Yi. “I’m not targeting you. I’m after you and your companions.”

Li Xiaolin’s eyelids twitched. He suddenly seemed to realize something, and his expression shifted.

Wen Xiuzhu asked, “What exactly is going on here? Tell me. If you weren't in the wrong, I naturally won’t let others bully you.”

The crowd was confused. All eyes were on Li Xiaolin.

Li Xiaolin said solemnly, “I can swear to the heavens themselves that I can’t recall ever offending Su Yi!”

“That so?” laughed Su Yi. “Have your companions cout. I’ll tell you your crimes once I’ve killed you all.”

“....”

The crowd couldn’t deny it. Su Yi was far too domineering. He disdained offering an explanation, instead going straight for the kill!

“Su Yi, your brazenness knows no bounds!” Li Xiaolin roared. “How exactly did I offend you for you to targetlike this?”

Su Yi disregarded this and continued, “I’ll count to three. If you don’t do as I say, I’ll make sure you suffer extrhumiliation before you die.”

His tone was light and airy, but the contents of this statement sent a bone-piercing chill throughout the surrounding area.

Wen Xiuzhu’s beautiful face was overcast. “Li Xiaolin, just what shameful deeds have you and your cohort committed over the past few days?”

“I....” Li Xiaolin opened his mouth to speak.

But Su Yi’s voice was already booming throughout the surrounding area. “One.”

It was like a countdown to death, and it rang throughout the crowd’s ears like the sound of a bell. The atmosphere was instantly stifled and tense.

“Quickly!” Wen Xiuzhu said coldly. “I’ve already made my position clear. If you weren’t in the wrong, I won’t let anyone bully you! Don’t tellyou did something unspeakable?”

Li Xiaolin took a deep breath. “Very well, I won’t hide it from you. A few days ago, sof my companions and I clashed with two experts of the Eastern Profound Star Domain over good fortune. But I assure you that we didn’t kill anyone. Both of them are still alive!”

Su Yi’s voice rang out once more. “Two.”

He stood there, hands behind his back, all alone as he faced down the numerous experts of the Northern Abyss Star Domain. However, he didn’t seem at all weak. On the contrary, he seemed like he alone could ward off a massive army.

And from beginning to end, he never explained himself!

This made the crowd’s hearts quiver.

His domineering pride was bone deep. He disdained explaining himself or trying to convince others with reason. He was like a ruler issuing a decree of execution!

This guy really is far too domineering, thought Qin Suxin.

After she calmed down, she realized that Su Yi had wasted almost no breath since he’d arrived. When he said he was going to kill someone, he did just that!

It didn’t matter how they tried to threaten him. He had no reservations whatsoever!

He was up against an entire star domain’s worth of experts, but he didn’t care at all!

“What kind of confidence must he have to act like this?” Ren Changqing’s eyes flashed. This was his first tseeing someone so insane, so tyrannical, and so impervious to reason.

The atmosphere was so stifled that the crowd found it difficult to breathe.

Wen Xiuzhu seemed to have understood, and she immediately reached a decision. “Su Yi, it was just a conflict over good fortune, and both Eastern Profound Star Domain experts are still alive. Don’t you think killing someone is over the line?”

She was furious. This Su Yi sure is frenzied. He isn’t just wantonly trampling the rules; now he wants to kill someone over a competition for good fortune! How unbridled is that?

Li Xiaolin said coldly, “Right? If you’d kill someone over a little incident like that, doesn’t that mean that all of us will have to respectfully step aside whenever we cross paths with someone from the Eastern Profound Star Domain?”

Uproar ensued amongst the crowd, but Su Yi still paid them no heed. He just said softly, “Three.”

The word resounded clearly throughout the ears of everyone present.

Their hearts clenched.

But Su Yi was already walking toward Li Xiaolin.

He was all alone, but it was as if everyone present were completely beneath his notice!
