Bu Jingyun and the other two followed closely behind, feeling slightly excited. After all, even they had never seen the treasure vault of their World Society. Every time rewards were given, a portion of the captured items were selected, and the rest had to be handed over.

Xiong Ba led the three to a rockery. He pressed his right hand against a protrusion on the rockery, and a swirling stream of true energy flowed out from his right hand.

"boom"

With a loud bang, the artificial hill was moved to the side, revealing a tall, black iron gate.

Seeing that the iron gate was intact, Xiong Ba put aside his worries and laughed heartily.

"This is the treasure trove of our World Alliance. Most of the spoils of your battles over the years are here. Lin Yaoxie must have discovered this place as well, but he couldn't open it because I need to use my Three-Part Returning Yuan Qi to open the door. When you go in later, each of you can choose a weapon that suits you."

Xiong Ba was very happy. He could already imagine Lin Yaoxie standing in front of a huge treasure vault, knowing that there were great treasures inside, but unable to take them. Lin Yaoxie must be very frustrated.

Unfortunately, Xiong Ba only guessed the beginning, not the end. Lin Yaoxie was very frustrated at first, but he had the system, so he took out the universal key, which was very convenient. He didn't need the Three-Part Returning Qi, nor did he need to open the iron gate. He just inserted it into the rockery, and then Lin Yaoxie went in.

Xiong Ba had no idea that such a magical thing existed in the world. Seeing that everything was intact, he assumed that Lin Yaoxie had not entered.

Nie Feng, Bu Jingyun, Qin Shuang, and the other two were immediately excited after hearing Xiong Ba's words. Those who could enter the World Society's treasury must possess the most precious treasures among treasures. Obtaining even one item would greatly increase their strength.

Under the intense gazes of the three men, Xiong Ba took out the key and opened the iron door of the treasure vault. As soon as the door opened, the four men were dumbfounded.

"What's going on? Where are my treasures? Where is my Heavenly Domain Sword? Where is my Soul-Devouring Blade?" Xiong Ba strode in, looking at the empty treasure vault where not a single hair was left, a treasure vault that even a rat could walk out with swollen eyes, he could no longer maintain that expression of having everything under control.

Feng Yunshuang and the other two were relatively indifferent, as they didn't know how many treasures were inside. However, Xiong Ba was different; he had personally placed the treasure vault there, so he was extremely familiar with its contents.

The contents of this treasure trove could more than buy the entire World Society! And so much wealth slipped through his fingers. Xiong Ba almost spat out a mouthful of blood, but he managed to swallow it down with his strong willpower.

Xiong Ba felt his heart bleeding. How many treasures were these! Although he had used some over the years, what remained were all top-quality items and treasures. All the treasures he had painstakingly accumulated over the years were now gone in an instant. This was like taking half of Xiong Ba's life.

You should know that besides cultivating and handling affairs, Xiong Ba's only hobby was to go to the treasure vault and caress those treasures. He looked at them like he was his wife for ten years. Now, suddenly he was told that the wife he had raised for ten years had run away with someone else and slept with someone else. How could Xiong Ba bear this?

However, Xiong Ba was indeed a powerful and ruthless figure. Even now, he remained clear-headed and knew that he had to maintain his image in front of his disciple. Therefore, he did not spit out the blood. Xiong Ba tried to tell himself to stay calm and not get angry. As long as he killed Lin Yaoxie, the treasure would be back in his hands. Thinking this way, Xiong Ba immediately felt much better.

Just as Xiong Ba recovered, he heard Bu Jingyun say, "Master, look, there seem to be some words carved on the wall."

Upon hearing this, Xiong Ba's eyes involuntarily turned to the words on the wall. He could no longer hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood onto the wall, his face contorted in a ferocious expression.

"Lin Yaoxie, I'll make you wish you were dead!"

What exactly did Lin Yaoxie write on the wall that caused Xiong Ba to lose control and spit out a mouthful of blood? Actually, Lin Yaoxie only wrote twelve characters.

"I'll kill you, I'll sleep with you, what can you do to me?"

Xiong Ba could no longer bear such humiliation. He wanted Lin Yaoxie dead; he didn't want Lin Yaoxie to live another moment! He wanted him dead immediately!

"Let's go to Wushuang City! I'm going to tear Lin Yaoxie to pieces!" Xiong Ba roared and took the lead in rushing towards Wushuang City.

Bu Jingyun, Nie Feng, and Qin Shuang exchanged glances and then followed Xiong Ba towards Wushuang City.

Chapter 217: One Against Four [First Update]

Inside the Lord's Mansion of Wushuang City

Lin Yaoxie was lying comfortably in the rocking chair when suddenly an angry voice came from outside the city gate to his ears.

"Lin Yaoxie, you despicable, shameless, and vile scoundrel, get out here right now!"

Upon hearing the voice, Lin Yaoxie knew that Xiong Ba had arrived. He smiled slightly and said to the women, "You all go back to your space first. I will come back to keep you company after I kill Xiong Ba."

"Honey, come on, you have to win!"

"Don't worry, baby, that old geezer can't beat me."

After Lin Yaoxie finished speaking, he put the women back into his spatial storage. He didn't want anyone to use his women to threaten him. Although he thought no one in the world could take his wife away right under his nose, he was always afraid of the worst.

Xiong Ba waited angrily at the gate of Wushuang City for Lin Yaoxie. Although he wanted to enter Wushuang City and wreak havoc, he felt that if he went in, he probably wouldn't be able to escape.

Before long, Xiong Ba saw Lin Yaoxie, dressed in flowing white robes, emerge. A blend of ethereal and malevolent aura emanated from him, filling him with an air of mystery that naturally drew people in.

Looking at the seemingly likable young man, Xiong Ba felt no kindness in his eyes, only hatred, wishing he could grind him to dust immediately. But before that, he had something more important to say.

"Lin Yaoxie, did you take my treasury?" Xiong Ba said with a gloomy expression.

"It's me, what's wrong? There are plenty of good things inside, no need to thank me, it's what I should do," Lin Yaoxie waved his hand, indicating that Xiong Ba didn't need to thank him.

Xiong Ba's anger, which he had just suppressed, suddenly flared up again, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. He felt that he hadn't been angry for the past few years, and he had unleashed it all today.

"Did you kidnap my daughter?" Xiong Ba gritted his teeth and glared angrily at Lin Yaoxie.

"You mean Youruo? Don't worry, your daughter is doing very well here. By the way, your daughter tastes really good. Don't worry, your daughter will be my wife from now on, and she has nothing to do with you. Are you happy?" Lin Yaoxie had an expression that said, "I'm thinking of you."

"Charge! Charge! Charge! Kill this brat!"

Xiong Ba, as if possessed, spoke to the three people behind him. Without the slightest hesitation, Feng Yunshuang and the other two immediately followed Xiong Ba and charged forward.

"The Threefold Return to the Origin of Qi"

"Wind God Leg"

"Cloud-Dispelling Palm"

"Heavenly Frost Fist"

The four immediately attacked Lin Yaoxie.

Lin Yaoxie smiled faintly, took out the Blood God Sword from his waist, and thrust it out fiercely, sending a huge sword aura rushing towards Xiong Ba.

"Boom boom boom"

The sword energy and true energy collided violently in the air, producing a deafening sound. After the collision, Lin Yaoxie and the other three were suddenly separated.

Xiong Ba stared at Lin Yaoxie in shock and shouted, "Lin Yaoxie, how come you're not dead?"

"Why should I die?" Lin Yaoxie still had a smile on his face.

Xiong Ba was confused; this script wasn't right.

In Xiong Ba's script, his strength greatly increased, and he appeared at the same time with his three disciples. According to the original agreement, they immediately used their ultimate moves. Before Lin Yaoxie could use his full strength, they killed Lin Yaoxie with one move. After killing Lin Yaoxie, he took Lin Yaoxie's treasures and his own treasures. Then he took away his daughter You Ruo, cleared up the misunderstanding, shocked the world, and then took this opportunity to unify the world and achieve his hegemony.

But the beginning was right. Lin Yaoxie did not use his full strength. He only swung his sword once and did not use his extremely powerful sword moves. On his side, not only himself, but also his three disciples used their ultimate moves. But why did the script go wrong? Logically, Lin Yaoxie should have died, but why was he completely unharmed?

Could it be that my strength has weakened? Or that my three disciples have weakened? That's impossible. I couldn't have weakened; on the contrary, I've strengthened considerably. My three disciples were also checked when I came out of seclusion, and their strength hadn't decreased. So the problem isn't with me. The only possibility is that Lin Yaoxie's strength has increased, and by a significant margin!

Thinking of this, Xiong Ba was immediately filled with terror. How many days had it been? Only five days had passed since this person fought him, and in those five days, this person had become so strong? Was this even human? Impossible, absolutely impossible! Xiong Ba tried to reassure himself. How could anyone increase their strength by at least 100% in just five days? It was absolutely impossible.

Despite trying to comfort himself, Xiong Ba couldn't help but believe his previous judgment, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

Seeing Xiong Ba's shocked expression and his body trembling uncontrollably, Lin Yaoxie laughed even more heartily.

In fact, Xiong Ba's guess was mostly correct, but he misjudged the multiplier of Lin Yaoxie's strength increase. In the past five days, Lin Yaoxie's strength increased not by one time, but by several times! What seemed like a miracle to outsiders was actually a matter of course for Lin Yaoxie.

Firstly, when Lin Yaoxie broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage, he experienced great terror and broke through the inner demons in his heart. At the Foundation Establishment stage, he no longer had any so-called barriers, so what he lacked was only the accumulation of energy. However, the accumulation of energy is obviously very slow. Therefore, after Lin Yaoxie's strength increased sharply for a period of time, it did not improve further. But coincidentally, when Lin Yaoxie activated his spiritual veins, a small portion of spiritual energy remained in his body. After being refined, it transformed into his own true energy.

This is a small part for a spiritual vein, but for Lin Yaoxie, it was simply too huge, directly pushing Lin Yaoxie's cultivation to the peak of Foundation Establishment!

Even Lin Yaoxie, in the early stages of Foundation Establishment, could defeat Xiong Ba, who was at the peak of Foundation Establishment. Let alone Lin Yaoxie, who had already crossed two small steps to reach the peak of Foundation Establishment, defeating Xiong Ba would be like a father beating his son—it would be incredibly easy for him.

Chapter 218: Nameless [Second Update]

"Xiong Ba, give up today! You're going to die! I won't waste your time anymore, I'll just send you to your next reincarnation." Lin Yaoxie originally wanted to test his strength, thinking that Xiong Ba would have improved and be able to fight him. He didn't expect Xiong Ba to be such trash, actually fighting him and only increasing his strength by a tiny bit (Do you think everyone is like you? I, Xiong Ba, am at least a human being, you're just a monster). He really couldn't muster the desire to fight anymore, so he decided not to waste any more time here. After killing Xiong Ba, he would go back and play with his wife as soon as possible.

Ignoring Xiong Ba's expression, Lin Yaoxie swung the Blood God Sword in his hand four times in the air, sending four huge sword energies flying towards Xiong Ba and his companions.

"The Threefold Return to the Origin of Qi"

Upon seeing the crimson sword energy approaching, Xiong Ba immediately erected a light blue protective shield of true energy around his body. However, this was in vain. The sword energy shattered the light blue shield and pierced Xiong Ba's body. Xiong Ba immediately felt a tickle in his throat, spat out a mouthful of blood, and collapsed to the ground, staring at Lin Yaoxie with a face full of terror.

Although Xiong Ba managed to block the attack, he was also severely injured. The other three, lacking Xiong Ba's powerful internal energy, fared much worse.

Qin Shuang had no time to react before being cleaved in two by the blood-red sword energy. Although Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun dodged the sword energy, the price was one of Nie Feng losing an arm and half of Bu Jingyun's leg.

Without a fortuitous encounter, Bu Jingyun would have spent his life with a limp, and Nie Feng would have only one arm.

"Lin Yaoxie! I, Bu Jingyun, swear an oath to the heavens here that if I do not kill you in this life, I will not be a human being!" When Bu Jingyun saw Qin Shuang being cleaved in two by the sword energy, tears streamed down his face.

Nie Feng didn't speak, but roared, a blood-red light flashing in his eyes, and charged fiercely towards Lin Yaoxie.

"Overestimating yourself!" Lin Yaoxie looked at the berserk Nie Feng with disdain, and directly pointed his sword, opening two holes in Nie Feng's legs. Nie Feng knelt on the ground, unable to walk, and just looked at Lin Yaoxie angrily.

"You are like ants on the ground, while I am the sun in the sky. I can make you die whenever I want. Weakness is a mistake, but who told you to be weak while I am strong! As for the oath of Heaven, it is a joke. Do you think I would let you go back alive?" Lin Yaoxie looked at Bu Jingyun with a mocking expression.

"Lin the Demon, if you have the guts, let me go. I will kill you in the future!" Bu Jingyun glared angrily at Lin Yaoxie, looking as if he wanted to drink his blood and eat his flesh.

"It's getting late, it's time to send you on your way. Don't blame me, blame yourselves for messing with me!" Lin Yaoxie completely ignored Bu Jingyun's words and directly swung the Blood God Sword four more times in the air, sending four sword energies towards Xiong Ba and the other three.

The four men, including Xiong Ba, were now powerless to resist and could only watch helplessly as the sword energy hurtled towards them. In despair, they closed their eyes and awaited their death.

"Since you have already defeated Xiong Ba and the other three, why can't you spare their lives? When it's time to show mercy, show mercy!" A voice mixed with sword energy came from afar, directly shattering Lin Yaoxie's four sword energies.

"Oh? There are such experts in this world?" When Lin Yaoxie saw his sword energy being directly shattered by the shout of the person mixed with the sword energy, he immediately became interested. Clearly, the person who came was definitely a strong one.

The sound had barely faded when the person appeared before Lin Yaoxie. He wore light blue martial arts attire, had a mustache, and slightly curly, not-too-long hair, giving him an air of detachment and indifference. Lin Yaoxie recognized the man before him.

This person is none other than the martial arts legend, Nameless!

"The legend of the martial arts world, Nameless? What are you doing here? What gives you the right to lecture me? Who do you think you are!" Lin Yaoxie's face was full of coldness. He hated being lectured the most.

“My name is Wuming. But I am not lecturing Lord Lin, but merely offering my opinion. Xiong Ba and the other three are already severely injured, some are dead, and some have broken arms. They have no ability to resist at all. As the saying goes, saving a life is better than building a seven-story pagoda. I hope Lord Lin can spare them.” Wuming said with a righteous expression, cupping his hands.

"Hmph, if you made an enemy of someone, and that person harbored resentment towards you, and he posed a threat to your family, would you let him go?" Lin Yaoxie asked disdainfully.

“Of course, as the saying goes, one should be lenient when one can. I guarantee they will not harbor any thoughts of revenge again. I hope City Lord Lin can let them go,” Wuming said matter-of-factly.

"You guarantee it? You're nothing! Can you guarantee it for them? Whether they even acknowledge you is another matter. What ability do you have to guarantee it? I'm not going to argue with you anymore. Are you going to move aside or not?" Lin Yaoxie was already impatient. He didn't want to see Wuming's self-righteous face.

“Please forgive my rudeness, but I cannot move aside. Xiong Ba and the other three are no longer able to fight. They are now crippled and no longer pose any threat to you. I implore Lord Lin to spare them,” Wuming said, cupping his hands in a gesture of respect.

"What a joke! It's like someone sleeping with your wife, and then he apologizes and begs you to let him go. Would you let him go? Let me tell you, my patience has its limits. I'll only ask you once, and this is the last time: are you going to let me go or not!" Lin Yaoxie was immediately amused by Wuming's other theories. After doing bad things, when they get injured, they become good people? What kind of nonsense is that?

"Please forgive my rudeness, but if you do not let them go, I will not give an inch!" Wuming's expression also turned serious.

"Then let's see who has the real skills!"

Lin Yaoxie didn't hold back, directly raising the Blood God Sword and slashing down fiercely. A massive blood-red sword instantly cleaved towards Wuming and Xiong Ba. If this attack landed, it would instantly turn everyone, including Wuming, into mincemeat.

Chapter 219: Battle Without a Name [Third Update]

There was no panic in Wuming's eyes. He drew his sword from his waist and slashed down with the same sword. The same white giant sword appeared in the air, and the two huge swords collided violently in the air.

Lin Yaoxie controlled the blood-red greatsword, each move exuding domineering power, pressing the white greatsword firmly beneath him. The white greatsword, however, was not to be outdone. Although it could not match the strength of the blood-red greatsword, it was quite skilled in technique. The two exchanged blows, fighting fiercely.

"Good! As expected of Wuming, as expected of someone who can be called a legend in the martial arts world." Lin Yaoxie's battle was a real contest of swordsmanship and understanding of the sword. Even though every move was a sword technique, it could still unleash tremendous power.
