Martial Hero Rebirth

"Let's get out of here, it's too dangerous to stay here!", Lin Yi said weakly.

"Alright, Yiqian will help Senior Brother Lin Yi!"

Yiqian nodded and got up to help Lin Yi up. Just when the five of them were about to leave, they heard great laughter.

"Go? Go where? None of you will be leaving here today!"

A figure approached them from behind like the wind.

"Ah!"

A terrible cry was heard.

The figure had grabbed hold of Yan Bei's neck and squeezed.

With a cracking sound, Yan Bei's neck was broken.

He was murdered in front of them!

"It's you!"

Yiqian watched as the figure threw Yan Bei's corpse to one side like trash. She then said in anger and disbelief: "Monk Jueyuan, you…you actually murdered him?!"

The figure was Monk Jueyuan.

"Murdered him? So what? Hahaha!"

Monk Jueyuan laughed like a madman.

"Are you crazy? You actually murdered a righteous sect disciple, what are you trying to do?"

Yiqian was infuriated as she especially hated the wicked.

A disciple of Shaolin, the leader of the righteous faction, actually murdered a righteous sect disciple.

How could she believe what she saw?

Mo Yu, Lu Buping, and Yun Taizi also stared at Monk Jueyuan with wide eyes in disbelief.

Weren't Shaolin disciples supposed to be kindhearted?

How could they suddenly become murderers?

Before, when they saw Monk Jueyuan use the Quanzhen disciple as a meat shield, they could still attribute it to Monk Jueyuan's fear of death. But now, there was no longer any excuse.

Monk Jueyuan simply continued laughing crazily.

Looking at the five of them, especially Lin Yi, his eyes were filled with bitterness and viciousness.

"Lin Yi, you never expected me to come back did you?"

"Haha, you dared to foil my plans and disgrace me in front of others!"

"Today, I'm going to kill you!"

Upon hearing the word ‘kill', everyone's expressions changed.

"Monk Jueyuan, what are you going to do?"

Yiqian stood in front of Lin Yi and shouted warily.

Even exerting a small amount of strength caused pain in her heart, nearly causing her to be unable to stand upright, but she stubbornly held on.

"Do what?"

Speaking in a sinister and cold voice, Monk Jueyuan said: "I'm going to kill all of you!"

"Then nobody will know that I caused the death of the Quanzhen disciple!"

Glancing at Old Demon Xu's corpse, his face was filled with greed as he licked his lips: "And I can even claim credit for killing Old Demon Xu!"

"Haha, I will be famous in the entire Jianghu!"

Yiqian frowned while Lu Buping stared at him in disbelief: "Are you mad?!"

"Mad? I'm not mad!"

"I'm more sane and lucid than anyone else!"

"You fools believe in righteousness and evil, how foolish!"

"There are no differences between the righteous and demonic, only profits!"

"Why do the demonic faction and righteous faction battle?"

"It's not for the sake of justice or evil, it's for the sake of profits!", Monk Jueyuan roared.

No one knew whether he was saying it for the five of them to hear or trying to justify his murders.

"Once I kill all of you, nobody will know what I did!"

"Once I kill all of you, the credit for killing Old Demon Xu will be mine!"

"Once I kill all of you, nobody will be able to compete with me to become the most outstanding genius in the righteous faction!

"Once I kill all of you…"

Listing several reasons in quick succession, the five of them were speechless upon hearing his words.

Yiqian shouted in fury and interrupted Monk Jueyuan: "No matter what reasons you have, if you want to kill Senior Brother Lin Yi, you will have to kill me first!"

Monk Jueyuan looked at her with disdain: "Kill you first? Little nun, do you still have the strength to use your sword?"

"You can't even stand upright, how are you going to protect others?"

Revealing a lustful expression, Monk Jueyuan said with a laugh: "Little nun, don't worry. Once I kill off the rest of them, I will have a ‘proper battle' with you!"

With that being said, he raised his Dragon Claw Hands and shouted: "Lin Yi, time to die!"

"Haha, you are indeed strong, and I admit that I'm much weaker in comparison."

"But, do you still have the strength to lift your sword?"

"Now that you are at your weakest, I can do as I please to you!"

"I advise you to quietly accept your death and I will make it a quick one!"

Monk Jueyuan laughed as he approached Lin Yi.

Suddenly, the feeble Lin Yi raised his cold eyes and pushed Yiqian away. Lifting his sword, he stabbed forward.

Just like when he had killed Old Demon Xu, this sword also possessed supreme power.

How could Monk Jueyuan be a match for it?

With a flash of the sword, Monk Jueyuan's outstretched right hand was severed by the sword!

Blood gushed out from the stump like a fountain!

"Ahh!"

Monk Jueyuan cried out in pain as he grabbed his stump and retreated in fear.

He had long since been afraid of Lin Yi, and seeing that Lin Yi was still capable of producing such a terrifying move, he was overwhelmed by fear. As a result, he tripped and fell on the ground.

As Lin Yi approached him with the sword dripping with blood without any expression, Monk Jueyuan endured the pain from his injury and kneeled on the ground.

With a pleading expression, he begged: "Lin Yi, Young Hero Lin! I was wrong, please have mercy on me!"

Lin Yi smiled coldly and merely pointed his sword at Monk Jueyuan's throat.

Feeling the coldness of the blade, Monk Jueyuan's fear rose to the peak.

"I was blinded by the demons in my heart, this monk knows his mistake!"

"Please don't kill me, Young Hero Lin!"

"I'm inhuman, and I should never have tried to kill Young Hero Lin."

"I'm less than a beast!"

"Young Hero Lin is a top genius, there's no need to bother with small fry like me. Please forgive me once and take it that I was talking nonsense!"

Monk Jueyuan repeatedly begged for mercy as he kneeled on the ground.

Lin Yi's companions could not bear to watch it and they repeatedly opened and closed their mouths but did not manage to say anything.

Monk Jueyuan was truly despicable and deserved to die!

Although he belonged to the righteous faction, he was no different from a demonic cult disciple.

Seeing the killing intent in their eyes, anger abruptly rose in Monk Jueyuan's heart.

Raising his head, he shouted in anger: "I am a disciple of Shaolin, and I'm also one of the geniuses in Shaolin!"

"If you kill me, Shaolin will take revenge for me!"

"Hmph, although the Five Mountain Sword Sects are major sects, they are worthless compared to Shaolin!"

"Even the Five Mountain Sword Sects won't be able to protect you by then!"

Monk Jueyuan's words were full of threat, and their expressions changed.

Although Monk Jueyuan deserved death, he was a Shaolin disciple!

Shaolin was indeed the undisputed leader of the righteous faction, and if they killed him, even their sects would not have the ability to protect them from Shaolin.

Killing Monk Jueyuan was making an enemy out of Shaolin!

They could not help but start worrying about it.

Seeing the fear and indecisiveness in their eyes, Monk Jueyuan added with a snort: "Are the Five Mountain Sword Sects really going to oppose Shaolin?"

If they ended up causing great trouble for their sects, they would really be sinners!

The four of them looked at Lin Yi with worried faces.

Yiqian timidly asked: "Senior Brother Lin Yi, why don't we let him go?"

"That's right, Senior Brother Lin Yi, we can't afford to offend Shaolin."

"Killing Jueyuan will invite great trouble!"

The rest nodded their heads in agreement.

Upon hearing their words, Lin Yi nodded without any hesitation and said: "Alright!"

They sighed in relief at Lin Yi's reply.

After all, killing a Shaolin disciple was not the same as killing a demonic cult disciple.

The latter was called exterminating evil, while the former was called murder!

Although both acts involved killing, the meaning behind it was as different as heaven and earth.

Monk Jueyuan broke out in great joy and he glanced arrogantly at them.

"Good thing you know what's good for you!"

Getting up from the ground, he gave one last bitter look at Lin Yi before turning around and pompously leaving.

Laughing coldly in his heart, he started planning his next move.

He was going to try his best to smear the reputation of these five people, especially Lin Yi!

Clutching his stump in pain, Monk Jueyuan's eyes were filled with bitter resent.

Suddenly, he sensed a sword approaching him.

It was so abrupt and quick that before he could react, his throat had been pierced by the sword.

Turning back, he saw that the attacker was indeed Lin Yi and he sputtered: "You…you…went back on your word!"

Lin Yi smiled coldly: "Shaolin? The leader of the righteous faction? You think that I wouldn't dare to kill you just because you brought up the name of Shaolin?"

"You are too naive!"

Monk Jueyuan previously thought that these people from Five Mountain Sword Sects were too naive and easy to intimidate. To think that Lin Yi would throw these words back at him.

Vomiting blood as he died!

System notification:

Quest reward:

Killing the genius disciple Jueyuan from Shaolin and creating a stir in Jianghu, 30,000 battle experience awarded.

Looking at the 40,000 battle experienced bestowed by Monk Jueyuan, Lin Yi gave a cold laugh.

Turning his head, he saw his companions looking at him with a stunned expression.
