"Run. I must run now."
If Zi Canglan’s mood was complicated, then the mood of the last remaining black-robed demonic cultivator had already turned into pure terror.
Previously, after being sent flying by Li Yun, he had felt humiliated.
But now, he finally understood.
The reason he had not been killed by a single sword strike was because Li Yun had shown mercy.
He no longer dared to entertain any distracting thoughts.
His figure transformed into a streak of black light as he turned and tried to flee.
"Do you think you can leave?"
Li Yun’s expression remained calm.
With a light swing of his sword, a stream of Sword Qi howled forth and directly intercepted the black-robed demonic cultivator.
"What exactly do you want?"
Forced to land, the black-robed demonic cultivator stared at Li Yun with terror and humiliation.
He knew that if Li Yun wanted to kill him, he would have been dead long ago.
But he also knew that Li Yun’s reason for sparing him was definitely not kindness.
If it were true kindness, Li Yun would not have killed the other two so cleanly and without hesitation.
The reason Li Yun left him alive was simply because he still had some use.
Sure enough, Li Yun spoke in the next moment.
"I will give you ten breaths of time. Tell me everything you know about the Ironblood Sect."
"I will talk. I will talk."
After only a moment of hesitation, the black-robed demonic cultivator hurriedly began to speak.
When one was under someone else’s roof, one had to lower their head.
To preserve his life, he could no longer care about anything else and immediately blurted out everything he knew.
In truth, although this black-robed demonic cultivator was a Spirit Manifestation Realm powerhouse, his status within the Ironblood Sect was not very high.
At best, he was only a high-level enforcer.
The information he knew was not extensive.
He only knew that the Ironblood Sect’s four hall masters and five chief elders were all 2nd level Spirit Manifestation Realm powerhouses.
The two deputy sect masters had both reached the 3rd level of Spirit Manifestation Realm.
As for the strength of the sect master, he did not know.
He only knew that the sect master’s strength was unfathomable.
Even if the two deputy sect masters joined forces, they would be completely unable to contend with him.
He was at least a 4th level Spirit Manifestation Realm powerhouse.
"A mere third-rate faction actually has a powerhouse above the 4th level of Spirit Manifestation Realm?"
Hearing this, Elder Bai Jing could not help raising an eyebrow slightly.
In an ordinary third-rate faction, even 3rd level Spirit Manifestation Realm powerhouses were relatively rare, let alone someone who had reached the 4th level of Spirit Manifestation Realm.
Being able to possess a 4th level Spirit Manifestation Realm powerhouse meant that although the Ironblood Sect was not qualified to rank among second-rate factions, it was definitely a top-tier existence among third-rate factions.
However, after hearing Elder Bai Jing’s words, the expressions of both Zi Canglan and the black-robed demonic cultivator became strange.
After all, at this moment, Elder Bai Jing was only displaying cultivation that had barely entered the Spirit Manifestation Realm.
A person who had just entered the Spirit Manifestation Realm actually dared to speak so arrogantly.
Was this not ignorance of the immensity of heaven and earth?
The black-robed demonic cultivator could not help sneering inwardly.
If not for the fact that his life was currently in Li Yun’s hands, he might have already slapped this boastful fellow flying with one hand.
As for Zi Canglan, although he was not as disdainful as the black-robed demonic cultivator, he could not help shaking his head inwardly.
Li Yun had always been reliable in his actions.
How had he brought back such an unreliable fellow this time?
This man had only just entered the Spirit Manifestation Realm, yet he spoke as if he did not put the Ironblood Sect in his eyes at all.
His boasting was practically about to pierce through the heavens.
Swoosh!
Li Yun sensed the doubt in Zi Canglan’s eyes, but he did not explain anything.
With a swing of his sword, he directly ended the black-robed demonic cultivator’s life.
As a member of the Ironblood Sect, and someone who possessed 1st level Spirit Manifestation Realm cultivation, his hands were inevitably stained with the blood of countless people.
Such a person naturally deserved death.
There was nothing to pity.
Afterward, Li Yun looked at Zi Canglan and spoke.
"Elder Zi, there is one matter I must trouble you with."
"What is it?"
After witnessing Li Yun’s strength, Zi Canglan’s attitude toward Li Yun had clearly changed.
In his every gesture, he now treated Li Yun as an equal powerhouse.
The world of cultivators was exactly like this.
Those who achieved strength came first.
Unless one was a direct elder or blood relative, seniority and age had to step aside before power.
"I hope you can summon the surviving cultivators of the Heavenly Sword Sect and the other major forces."
Li Yun spoke, his eyes emitting sharp light as he said each word clearly.
"It is time to uproot the Ironblood Sect, the greatest tumor of the Azure Void Region."
"What did you say?"
Zi Canglan was immediately startled.
"Li Yun, you heard it just now. The Ironblood Sect’s sect master is a 4th level Spirit Manifestation Realm powerhouse. Even though your strength has increased greatly, you are absolutely no match for him. Do not act recklessly."
"Elder Zi, do not worry. I have confidence."
Li Yun smiled faintly and said, "Although the Ironblood Sect’s sect master is strong, I have a way to deal with him. This time, the Ironblood Sect will undoubtedly be destroyed."
"Alright..."
Zi Canglan hesitated for a moment, but he finally chose to believe Li Yun.
Although he did not know where Li Yun’s confidence came from, Li Yun’s strength had changed so drastically in just over a year. That alone suggested he must have obtained a significant opportunity.
Perhaps Li Yun truly did have a way to solve the problem of the Ironblood Sect.
