Lin Bai turned around in surprise to see all the disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect kneeling on one knee, shouting at Su Zhan, demanding strict punishment for the Divine Alliance.
Only a few diehard warriors of the Divine Alliance stood, but at this moment, their faces also revealed a touch of confusion and pain.
"Now you see, these are my witnesses."
Lin Bai spread his hands and laughed triumphantly.

"You’re talking nonsense!" Suzu Cang roared.
Su Zhan’s face darkened and said, "With your few words, you want me to punish the Divine Alliance severely. This is simply unreasonable."
"The Divine Alliance is the alliance of the Young Sect Master, adhering to the rules of the Spirit Sword Sect, each disciple is like a dragon or phoenix among people, a martial elite, a blessing to our Spirit Sword Sect! How could it accept your slander?"
"Grand Elder, execute Lin Bai immediately!"
The Grand Elder gave a harsh laugh: "As commanded!"
"Sect Leader Supreme, did you not hear our words?"
"Even if Lin Bai is wrong, the mistake lies with the Divine Alliance! If it weren’t for the Divine Alliance’s underhanded operations and shady tactics, how could Lin Bai, in his rage, slaughter the Core Martial Artists!"
"Please, Sect Leader Supreme, be merciful, spare Lin Bai!"
"Sect Leader Supreme! Are you confused!"
"Hehehe, it’s really ridiculous. Just because Su Cang is your son, he can act with impunity in the Spirit Sword Sect, with no punishment for mistakes? Then what use are the sect rules of the Spirit Sword Sect?"
"I’m so disappointed in the Spirit Sword Sect. This filthy Spirit Sword Sect is not worth my stay."
"I, quit the Spirit Sword Sect!"
"I also quit; the Spirit Sword Sect has deteriorated."
"Sect Leader Supreme, your actions are completely against the grand style of the sect. I quit the Spirit Sword Sect!"
One by one, the disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect were infuriated, declaring their leaving of the Spirit Sword Sect on the spot.
And their words were so firm that after they were uttered, they turned and walked towards the outside of the Spirit Sword Sect.
In the blink of an eye, over half of the more than 5,000 disciples of the Spirit Sword Sect left directly.
Lin Bai chuckled: "Hahaha, well done Su Zhan, well done Sect Leader Supreme. You favor your own, is there no justice under heaven, is there no divine rule?"
Su Zhan sneered: "Lin Bai, let me tell you what stands for justice and what stands for divine rule!"
"I am stronger than you! I am justice!"
"I am stronger than you! I am divine rule!"
"In this world, the strong are the most respected. Justice, divine rule, these are nothing more than the masks of the weak."
Su Zhan’s eyes shone brightly as he sneered.
Lin Bai was slightly stunned and then gave a bitter smile.
"Lin Bai! Give up your life!"
The Grand Elder attacked at this moment, clawing towards the top of Lin Bai’s head.
The Second Elder was enraged: "Do you want to kill Lin Bai without asking me! Grand Elder, we didn’t determine a winner a hundred years ago. Why not fight today?"
The Second Elder drew his treasure sword and clashed with the Grand Elder.
Su Zhan stared at the Second Elder and said angrily: "Second Elder, are you rebelling?"
The Second Elder sneered: "In this Spirit Sword Sect, is there a difference between rebellion and non-rebellion?"
With a collision between the Second Elder and the Grand Elder, both of them were thrown backwards!
Su Zhan sneered: "Very well, then today I will take action personally and clean up my Sect!"
"Lin Bai, you murdered in the Core Martial Artist Assessment. Your sins are monumental. I, Su Zhan, according to the rules of the Spirit Sword Sect, sentence you to death!"
Su Zhan swooped down, palm striking toward Lin Bai.
"Be careful, Lin Bai!"
Seeing Su Zhan attacking, Ji Bei, and Ji Bai both rushed forward, the two of them joined forces to strike a sword at Su Zhan.
Su Zhan sneered: "Two of you with only the state of the Great Perfection of Half-step Divine Pill Realm, and you want to compete with me, Su Zhan? Hehehe, today I’ll show you the power of the Human Elixir Realm!"
Su Zhan roared, and a palm came crashing down.
The enormous power, like a strike from a heavenly god, stirred the void, shaking the firmament.
A single palm strike knocked Ji Bei and Ji Bai away as though they were kites with broken strings, making them fall more than a hundred meters away. They looked towards Su Zhan, showing trepidation and fear.
Su Zhan cast a disdainful glance at Ji Bei and Ji Bai, then sneered at Lin Bai, "Lin Bai, there’s no one to protect you now."
Looking at Su Zhan, Lin Bai’s fighting spirit flared. He said coldly, "Su Zhan, you’d better kill me today, body and soul. Otherwise, even if there’s only a bit of my soul left, I, Lin Bai, will come back for revenge."
Su Zhan coldly laughed, "Don’t worry, I won’t let you leave even a shred of dust behind."
"Unbounded Sky-blocking Palm!"
Su Zhan used Unbounded, and a boundless power spread forth.
A palm came crashing down on top of Lin Bai’s head.
"Astonishing Wind Sword Skill!"
"Divine Power! Gentle Sword!"
"Divine Power! Wind-Slaying!"
"Divine Power! Waning Flower!"
Lin Bai utilized all the skills within his command.
Dozens of attacks formed a sky-splitting sword, struck Su Zhan.
Su Zhan snickered, "Such pathetic skills! Die!"
Su Zhan’s palm strike descended, smashing all of Lin Bai’s attacks to pieces.
In front of Su Zhan, Lin Bai’s attacks were like the futile struggles of a toddler.
A shadow of death cast on Lin Bai’s ashen face.
At this moment, Lin Bai finally understood that no matter how potent the Devouring Sword Spirit was or how cataclysmic its power, it must never be forgotten that this power came from humans, from warriors.
A matchless treasure sword, no matter how sharp, no matter if it could slay gods against the heavens, if there were no warrior to grasp its hilt, it would be nothing more than worthless iron.
Real power was the basis of a warrior’s survival.
Cultivation was the real source of a warrior’s power!
In the heat of battle with the Grand Elder, the Second Elder saw Su Zhan shatter all of Lin Bai’s attacks, descending towards Lin Bai’s head above, and screamed in alarm.
The Second Elder shrugged off the Grand Elder and rushed towards Lin Bai.
"Su Zhan, if there’s an afterlife, I will come back for revenge!"
Lin Bai, with determination burning in his eyes, roared.
Su Zhan’s palm landed.
But Lin Bai only felt a great force in front of him; it didn’t hit him.
Looking closely, the Second Elder was standing in front of him.
Lin Bai called urgently.
With a palm strike from Su Zhan, the Second Elder’s heart veins were all severed, and he fell straight down.
Lin Bai stepped forward, catching the Second Elder, his face showing agony, tears streaming from his eyes.
Though the Second Elder was no kith or kin to Lin Bai, since joining the Spirit Sword Sect and the Sword Alliance, the old man had shown him much care. He had made Lin Bai feel the warmth of home in the Spirit Sword Sect.
A faint sign of death flickered in the Second Elder’s eyes. His gaze was rapidly fading, as if he was nearing his end.
Lin Bai cried out, "Second Elder..."
With weak breaths, the Second Elder said, "Lin Bai, I can die... but you must live... you’re the Spirit Sword Sect’s hope... the Spirit Sword Sect’s hope... You must survive... You must survive..."
"You must survive... Find Jian Xuan... Bring back all the secret texts of the Spirit Sword Sect...restore the Spirit Sword Sect..."
"Promise me that you will survive... you will find Jian Xuan...restore the Spirit Sword Sect!"
The Second Elder clutched Lin Bai’s hand tightly, speaking fervently.
