Yun Che moved at an extremely high speed, and the storm he created destroyed the trees below layer by layer.

He had experienced countless dangers and storms, and was always able to regain complete composure in the first place. But this time, the chaos in his heart could not be stopped no matter what.

The soul seemed to be tightly grasped by something and was trembling in agony.

Following the trail all the way east, he finally sensed a human presence, and it was not just one person. Yun Che concentrated his mind and released his sense to the maximum extent… Less than ten miles ahead of him, seventeen powerful auras suddenly appeared.

And...a weak wood spirit aura.

He Lin! ?

Yun Che quickly suppressed his aura and sank into the dense forest below, but his speed was still not slow. He gradually approached the aura in front of him. When he got close, the Flowing Lightning Hidden Aura had already been fully displayed without being noticed by anyone.

Seventeen people, all dressed in black, with the marks of black snakes clearly visible on different parts of their black clothes. Sixteen of them released the aura of the Soul Realm, and the one in the front had the aura of the Divine Tribulation Realm, but he should have only entered the Divine Tribulation Realm not long ago, and the strength of his aura was slightly inferior to that of the middle-aged man in black who was seriously injured by him last night.

Yun Che’s gaze was fixed on the man in the middle of these people… In his hand, he was tightly grasping a young Mu Ling.

He Lin!

He Lin's profound power was not blocked, and there were no obvious signs of injury on his body. However, he was held in the hands of the man in black and did not move. His eyes were open, but there was no trace of emerald green. Instead, they were a grayish-white color with no pupils, like a dead person.

The whole person is like a body with life but deprived of soul.

“He Lin…” Yun Che whispered. After confirming that He Lin was not dead, Yun Che breathed a sigh of relief, but when he touched He Lin’s eyes, his heart and soul suddenly became several times heavier.

“Hahahaha,” an unpleasant laughter came from the man in black who was holding He Lin, “I didn’t expect there would be such a big surprise. Tsk tsk, not only will the hall master not be furious this time, he will definitely reward us well.”

"It's a pity that those wood spirits are so stubborn and are scrambling to destroy their own spirit beads. With so many wood spirits, we only get a few wood spirit beads." said another person.

"This is the biggest gain in all these years. For many years, these wood spirits have been as if they had agreed that once they are about to fall into the hands of humans, they will immediately destroy their wood spirit beads. Tsk tsk. But this little wood spirit... Oh, boss, who is this little wood spirit? Why do we have to capture him alive? The hall master was furious because of him."

The leading black-clad man in the front glanced back and said coldly: "Don't ask questions that you shouldn't ask. Watch him carefully. If he gets away again, not only us, but also the hall master will die!"

These words startled everyone. The man holding He Lin tightened his grip and exclaimed, "What...what is going on? Could it be that he is what the Sect Master wants?"

"Hmph!" The leading black-clothed man snorted, "I'm afraid it's going to be even more serious. When the hall master personally took away the man who was seriously injured in the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce last night, I vaguely heard the name 'Shenwu Realm'."

"What!? God... Godly World!?"

“Shut up!” The leading black-clothed man shouted, “Just know it in your heart, don’t say anything more, and don’t ask any more questions. If you don’t want to die, then cheer up. After meeting up with the hall master, you must immediately bring him back to the sect and hand him over to the sect master. There must be no omissions. If we lose this kid again, I guarantee that none of us will survive!”

"Yes." Everyone's face changed and they responded immediately. The man holding He Lin said, "Don't worry, Boss. No one in the Hei Ya Realm has the ability and courage to..."

Boom!!!

Before he finished speaking, a shadow suddenly appeared in the void less than two meters below him. Amid the thunder-like explosion of profound energy, the shadow flashed past him like a flash of light.

Everything happened in a flash. Before the man could react, his hand suddenly felt light.

Yun Che, who had snatched He Lin away in an instant, did not flee far away. Instead, he suddenly stopped after rushing out, then turned around. The profound energy and murderous aura that he had been tightly restraining were released wildly from his body and pupils like a waking evil beast. He protected He Lin with his left hand, and grasped the Heaven Smiting Sword with his right hand. The profound energy on the sword body was boiling, and the murderous aura was shocking.

The sudden change made all the black-clothed men terrified. They stopped in panic, but… before they could even yell a word, Yun Che’s profound energy had exploded again—he actually directly opened the Sky Blast, and then rushed towards these black-clothed men who were slaughtering the wood spirits with the scarlet profound energy.

When dealing with these Soul Realm profound practitioners, he could easily crush them in the Purgatory State, and there was no need to force the Heaven Blast. But... it was not only his profound strength that was boiling to the extreme, but also the anger and violence that filled his whole body and was eager to vent!

Even with one hand, the sword's might was still as terrifying as a nightmare.

BANG!!

The sword was like thunder, and the man in black who was closest to him, who he didn't even have time to see his face clearly, was cut in half by the sword.

Boom! !

The arm flipped with the sword, and a flaming sword light blasted out into the air, directly crushing the three black-clothed men on the left who were still in shock. The broken flesh and limbs fell mercilessly with a rain of blood, and the air was quickly filled with a pungent smell of blood.

He took away the wood spirit in an instant, and then suddenly turned around and killed four people with two swords. Everything happened in less than half a breath. The remaining black-clothed people just became alert, and they were already frightened out of their wits.

He appeared like a ghost and suddenly attacked them so cruelly without saying a word. They had never experienced such a horrible thing in their lives.

"you……"

Just as he let out a horrified roar, the Heaven Smiting Sword, boiling with blood and violence, struck down again. The black-clothed man's pupils dilated, and he raised his weapon at the fastest speed in his life...

BANG!!

The Black Soul Spear was directly broken, and the Heaven Smiting Sword rolled over the broken Black Soul Spear, mercilessly bombarding the black-clothed man's chest. Under the catastrophic power of the Heaven Smiting Sword, this powerful soul mystic was like a piece of fragile tofu, and was directly shattered into blood foam and flesh residue all over the sky.

Yun Che’s figure had disappeared directly, and appeared behind another man in black. Before that man could turn around, his entire body was cut in half.

BANG!!

BANG!!

boom--

With his feet on the Broken Moon and his hands brandishing a violent sword, Yun Che was like a demon that had completely unleashed his bloodthirsty nature. Every time he moved and attacked, there would be a roar that shook the heavens, and blood rained down, without a trace of leeway or mercy. How could an ordinary soul practitioner be able to withstand the power of his extreme state?

When he struck down with his ninth sword strike, the sixteen men in black had been shattered in the blood rain, leaving behind not even a complete corpse, not even a fragment of a corpse. Not even one of them had time to scream before their tragic death.

Only four breaths of time passed.

The leading man in black had his pupils shrank and his whole body was shaking like a sieve.

Just a few breaths ago, they were still full of pride, because this time they not only achieved great success, but also reaped a huge surprise.

But, in just a blink of an eye, it was as if they had suddenly fallen into hell, and all the people behind him were killed without a burial place. Most of these people were in the middle and late stages of the Spirit Realm, and were definitely considered strong in the Heiya Realm. But in front of this suddenly appearing devil, they were like sixteen poor larvae, which were crushed into powder in an instant.

When Yun Che’s gaze suddenly turned to him, his entire body trembled, and his face suddenly turned pale… The other party’s profound energy was clearly only at the second level of the Spirit Realm, which was a whole major realm weaker than his, but under his gaze and momentum, he was actually frightened almost instantly.

He slaughtered sixteen of his fellow disciples in just a few breaths with a single hand... Even if he was an idiot, he would not be naive enough to think that he could defeat this demon who was only in the early stage of the Spirit Realm.

“You…you…who are you…” He stepped back, making the most horrifying sound in his life…but immediately, he suddenly remembered the description of the mysterious power and characteristics of the person who kidnapped the wood spirit last night, and exclaimed in shock: “You are Ling Yun!!”

Yun Che was not at all surprised that the other party suddenly called out Ling Yun’s name. The surging anger was still boiling in his chest. He did not respond with a single word and blasted out with his sword.

"ah!!"

The man in black showed fear on his face, and the mysterious energy in his body surged up crazily. He did not dare to hold back even a little. The Black Soul Spear he raised flashed with pitch-black lightning, and he tried his best to block it.

when! !

If it was Yun Che in the Purgatory state, he could still barely resist, but in the Sky-blasting state, even with one hand, he would definitely not be able to resist. With a loud bang, the Black Soul Spear broke, and the man in black groaned, flew out fiercely, and rolled dozens of times on the ground before he came to a stop.

puff……

The man in black spat out several mouthfuls of blood. He turned over desperately and said in a trembling voice in fear: "Wait... wait! We are from the Black Soul Sect... You... You will not have a good ending if you offend us! And... And! Not only do we know that your name is Ling Yun, we also know that you are from the Pure Moon Realm! You... You let me go now, and then hand that little wood spirit to our Sect Master... The Sect Master will definitely... will definitely forgive you... Oh no, he will also reward you!"

The Black Feather Chamber of Commerce had extremely strict control over the information of its underground trading partners. He was not moved at all when this person called out the name "Ling Yun". He would not be surprised at all when he was called out that he was from the Flame God Realm...

But, what he shouted out was... "Pure Moon Realm"?

Yun Che said nothing. He brought He Lin, who had remained motionless from beginning to end, and dragged the Heaven Smiting Sword as he approached step by step.

With every step Yun Che took closer, the terrifying aura made him feel that he was one step closer to the abyss of death. He retreated tumbling and crawling, saying in horror: “No… don’t come over! Our Soul Sect has… the protection of the Divine Martial Realm. If you offend the Soul Sect, you will offend the Divine Martial Realm! Then… then you will have no place to stay. Even your Star Realm will not be able to protect you… You… you stop now or… wuaaaaa!”

Boom! !

Phoenix flames suddenly shot out from the sword, blasting the man in black into the air. Yun Che’s figure flickered, and the Heaven Smiting Sword, which was wrapped in a strong bloody aura, fiercely pierced through the man in black who was on fire all over his body.

BANG!!

Sword energy burst out, and with a loud bang, the entire body of the man in black shattered into pieces, and blood splattered several miles away.

These executioners who brutally slaughtered innocent wood spirits have all been reduced to ashes.

call……

The red profound energy disappeared, and Yun Che's body shook for a moment. It took him a long time to suppress the anger in his body. He put He Lin down, supported his shoulders with both hands, and looked into his eyes: "He Lin... are you not hurt?"

He Lin shook his head. There was no excitement, no tears, and even no sadness. His eyes were empty. Then, he smiled faintly: "I'm fine. Thank you, Brother Yun Che. You saved my life again."

“…” Yun Che stared at He Lin blankly. He wished so much that after being rescued, He Lin could release all his pain and sorrow and cry until his heart was broken, even if it meant he fainted from crying… However, instead of shedding tears, He Lin was smiling gently, and… thanking him…

Yun Che’s hands that were gripping He Lin’s shoulders suddenly tightened, and a strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart: “He Lin… I’m sorry, it’s me… who harmed your people. If it weren’t for me…”

He Lin shook his head gently: "No, this is not Brother Yun Che's fault. You are my benefactor... my savior, and the best person I have ever met."

Yun Che: “…”

He Lin turned around and stared into the distance... That was the direction of the Wood Spirit Secret Land: "Brother Yun Che, can you... take me home again? I... want to bury them properly."

“…Okay.” Yun Che nodded heavily, took He Lin with him, and flew to the west.

Although, danger could come at any time there, and it became even more dangerous after he killed those 17 Soul Sect members, and he shouldn't stay there for long... but he couldn't refuse.
