Chapter 286: Chapter 286: Prove Oneself Chapter 286: Chapter 286: Prove Oneself “Shu Ling Dean, what do you think?” Huang Luo looked at Shu Ling.
“What do you an, what do I think?” Shu Ling asked, puzzled.
“This Jing Yan, he seems to really intend to battle Cang Long.
Why does he have such strong confidence?” Huang Luo said with a smile.
“I don’t know, maybe Jing Yan really does have the strength to seize the Golden Order.
If that’s the case, then Cang Long is in danger!” Shu Ling shook his head.
“Ha ha, how could that be possible?” Huang Luo obviously didn’t believe that Jing Yan had the chance to take the Golden Order.
Among the people on the high platform, the majority shared Huang Luo’s opinion.
From the beginning, they didn’t believe that Jing Yan had such strength.
Even now, as Jing Yan challenged Cang Long, they hadn’t changed their mind.
They just wondered why Jing Yan dared to challenge Cang Long.
Could it really be that he’s not afraid of death?
Or perhaps, did he want to prove his innocence in that way?
If so, that would be utterly ridiculous.
Even if Jing Yan died here today, he wouldn’t be rembered by the people for long, maybe a few months or a year or two, and then they would forget the na Jing Yan.
In Lanqu County City, through the long history, there have been nurous talents that shone like cots, but how many of them are rembered forever?
Talents are common, but few remain renowned throughout the ages.
Below the high platform, in the square, Cang Long looked at Jing Yan.
“Kid, are you ready?” Cang Long pulled out his weapon, a silver longsword with patterns flowing across the blade.
This, too, was clearly a magic artifact longsword.
He stared at Jing Yan, as if even at this mont, he was worried that Jing Yan would back out.
He was eager to kill Jing Yan!
“Stop talking nonsense!” Jing Yan laughed and also drew his reddish Skyfire Sword.
“To death!” Cang Long let out a low roar, his silhouette flickered, and a burst of Sword Light erupted, sweeping out with vast Power.
Jing Yan watched as Cang Long made his move, his gaze intensifying.
This Cang Long’s strength was indeed not bad; among the Innate Peak Martial Artists, he could be considered upper class.
Jing Yan had crossed hands with Martial Artists of this level of strength before, like when he previously fought with Steward Wan and Deacon Fang in Lanqu Square Market; their strength was on the sa level as Cang Long.
At that ti, Jing Yan was still at the Innate Middle Stage, yet he was able to fight against both of them simultaneously.
Now, Jing Yan had broken through to the Late Innate Realm, and although he had just made the breakthrough and his realm was not yet stable, his strength was many tis greater than when he was at the Innate Middle Stage.
“Condensed Moon Three Waves!” A Red Sword Light swept out from the Skyfire Sword in Jing Yan’s hand!
The Condensed Moon Three Waves, a Mid Grade Martial Arts!
“Mid Grade Martial Arts?
Jing Yan actually uses Mid Grade Martial Arts?”
When the Condensed Moon Three Waves was used, everyone present recognized it.
They were astonished and very puzzled.
Facing a Martial Artist like Cang Long, Jing Yan was rely deploying Mid Grade Martial Arts; what was he trying to do?
Others had recognized the Condensed Moon Three Waves, and naturally, so had Cang Long.
He too felt it was sowhat inconceivable.
However, his disbelief was only a fleeting mont.
He soon sneered.
He stood here with the intent to kill Jing Yan, so with his first move, he nearly used his full strength, attempting to strike down Jing Yan with one blow.
His attack was terrifyingly powerful.
And facing his attack, Jing Yan had only used the Condensed Moon Three Waves!
“Since you’re seeking death, I’ll grant it to you!” Cang Long said in a low and sinister voice.
“Thud!” Silver and red sword light collided!
“Crack!” The silver sword light frayed and disintegrated in the blink of an eye, rapidly dissipating.
Everyone’s breath caught slightly!
How could this be?
Under their watchful eyes, Cang Long’s body was sent flying backwards.
Yes, they saw it correctly—it was Cang Long’s body that was sent flying, not Jing Yan’s.
This was obviously not what they had imagined.
Wasn’t Jing Yan supposed to be the one blown away and killed?
How could it be Cang Long, the Innate Peak Martial Artist?
What was going on?
All of them stared, dumbfounded at the unfolding scene, unable to understand.
“Thud!” A mouthful of fresh blood spurted from Cang Long’s mouth.
At this mont, the smile on Cang Long’s face had completely vanished, replaced by an extre distortion.
His eyes were filled with shock and fear.
As his Sword Light was shattered, he felt an overwhelming Power he couldn’t compete against surge directly towards him.
He had no ti to figure out why, as he was swept away by this force.
His whole body shook, and he couldn’t help spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood.
“Die!” Jing Yan didn’t stop, because Cang Long wasn’t dead yet.
The first technique was the Condensed Moon Three Waves, and this second strike was the New Moon Cutting Sword Technique.
A crescent-shaped red sword light shot out imdiately, closely skimming Cang Long’s body.
Facing this second attack, Cang Long was completely powerless to defend.
It didn’t matter that he was already seriously injured—even when he was not, he couldn’t have blocked Jing Yan’s strike.
This strike was far more terrifying than the previous one.
“Ahh!” Cang Long let out a hoarse scream.
He activated a Secret Technique, and a faint black Light Halo spread around his body.
Facing death, Cang Long summoned all his latent potential and frantically circulated his Primordial Energy.
He knew that this strike from Jing Yan could very likely kill him outright, so at this mont, he couldn’t care about anything else; he just wanted to block this strike.
“Dean, save !” While Cang Long was all out defending against Jing Yan’s second strike, he did not forget to call for help.
He was acutely aware of Jing Yan’s terrifying strength, far exceeding his imagination; he was no match for Jing Yan.
“Swoosh!” Although Cang Long desperately wanted to block it, he released all his available Primordial Energy, but the red sword light still easily tore through his surrounding black halo as simply as a sharp knife slicing through a piece of tattered cloth.
Then, the red sword light pierced right through Cang Long’s body.
Cang Long didn’t even have ti to scream before he heavily crashed to the ground, void of any signs of life.
The red sword light lingered for a breath’s ti before fading away into the air.
Just two strikes!
With the first strike, Cang Long was severely injured.
With the second, Cang Long was dead on the spot.
Next to Cang Long’s corpse, slowly, a pool of red blood began to spread.
“Cang Long is dead?” Finally, soone uttered a voice, a bit hoarse.
Cang Long, the Outer Court Deacon of Divine Wind Academy, a powerhouse at the Innate Peak Realm.
Dead, just like that, slain before everyone’s eyes, under the watchful gaze of all!
From the mont the two initiated combat to Cang Long’s death, it had only been a matter of a single breath.
Within this short span, Cang Long was killed by Jing Yan.
As Cang Long called for help, Shang Qu had already stood up, seemingly ready to rush down from the high platform.
But just as he made his move, Cang Long was already slain.
