The Sovereign’s Ascension Chapter 198

Chapter 198

“Martial Soul!”

“Didn’t they say that Lin Yun’s Martial Soul is a piece of garbage? And he can’t summon it?”

“Holy shit. What kind of Martial Soul is this to be so colossal?!”

“It still hasn’t condense fully. This Martial Soul must be recently born. Eight golden rays… It’s an eighth grade Amber Martial Soul at birth?!” Regardless of the golden rays or the sheer size of this Martial Soul, it was breathtaking.

The Martial Soul’s appearance was gradually condensing while the Demon Runic Tiger pounced over. It had the body of a dragon and the face of a human, along with two dragon horns growing from its forehead, permeating an ancient and demonic aura.

“What the hell is that?” Xin Yan had shock in her eyes. She could tell that there must be an origin to this Martial Soul, but it was something beyond her knowledge.

Standing by the side, Luo Feng had shock on his face and exclaimed, “It’s the Aurora Dragon! I now know why he did not want to summon his Martial Soul. This is clearly a Primordial Chaotic Soul with boundless potential! It’ll be something once it matures. Revealing before you’re strong enough will only do more harm than benefit.”

When the Aurora Dragon manifested completely, it swept a glance at the Demon Runic Tiger, causing the latter to shiver under its eyes. The Aurora Dragon charged forth, knocking the Demon Runic Dragon flying and tearing it apart with its claws.

The Demon Runic Tiger dissipated back into Wang Yan’s body, causing the latter to spew blood from the corner of his lips. His face was pale, signifying that his injuries weren’t light. Then again, Wang Yan was in the sixth stage of the Profound Martial Realm. He took a deep breath before charging at Lin Yun once more with his sword.

“Stop!” Xin Jue rushed over and stood before Lin Yun. Raising his hand, he pushed his palm forth. Wang Yan immediately vomited a mouthful of blood and was blown away. When he fell onto the ground, his face was ugly.

“Wang Yan, take another step forth and don’t blame me for being rude!” Xin Jue looked at Wang Yan coldly. There was a blatant threat in his tone.

Wang Yan looked at Lin Yun, who was struggling to get up on his feet, with rage burning in his chest. He knew that he had lost his opportunity to kill Lin Yun. When he looked at the Aurora Dragon returning to Lin Yun’s body, his face was covered in shock. How was that a garbage Martial Soul?

Even Bai Ting swayed with panic written on his face. All along, his greatest reliance was Lin Yun’s garbage Martial Soul. As long as Lin Yun had a garbage Martial Soul, no one would say anything if he was killed since he had no value. But right now, the situation was becoming a little difficult to handle.

His internal organs were injured, with the origin energy within his body dissipated. He no longer had any strength to fight. The gap between his cultivation with Wang Yan was too great. Wang Yang was six stages higher than him, and it wasn’t something Lin Yun could resist. If it wasn’t for his powerful physique and complete sword intent, Wang Yan would’ve already killed him in the first attack. Just like how he could easily kill Leng Mo, Wang Yan could also kill him easily.

Turning around, Xin Jue smiled, “I’m Xin Yan’s elder brother, Xin Jue.”

Lin Yun immediately understood due to the similarities between the two. So it turns out that they were biological siblings. Xin Yan and Luo Feng also stepped onto the stage quickly, standing beside Lin Yun.

“You have no idea how worried I was. I hadn’t expected that even after coming out, you still left me worried.” Xin Yan chuckled. The joy in her eyes couldn’t be concealed.

“What are you guys doing up there! Get down immediately!” Before the two of them could talk, Bai Ting barked, walking over with deacons following behind. “As a sword slave, Lin Yun bullied others, wounding many of his fellow disciples and even killed Wang Ning in public. He had violated the pavilion’s rules, and I will now deprive him of his status as Sword Firmament Pavilion’s disciple. Take him down!”

“Who dares to make a move?” Luo Feng roared. Hearing Luo Feng’s words, the deacons exchanged a glance and did not dare to take a step forth.

Luo Feng and Bai Ting were Inner Elders, and their positions were much higher than deacons like them. But Bai Ting was the one presiding over the contest, so everyone here had to listen to him. But they did not have the courage to offend Luo Feng.

“Luo Feng, you dare to interfere in my affairs?” Bai Ting questioned with a gloomy face. He had already made up his mind to go through with this since he had no path of return. Right now, he needed to capture Lin Yun and make a fuss over how he killed Wang Ning. He wanted to lock Lin Yun up without giving the latter any chance to stand out.

“You are in charge of the Nine Stars Contest, and I will not interfere with it. But since Lin Yun has passed through the forest, he is now a disciple of the Sword Firmament Pavilion. It’s not your authority to abolish that status.” In the past, Luo Feng did not want to offend Bai Ting because of Lin Yun.

But now that Lin Yun summoned the Primordial Chaotic Soul in public along with complete sword intent, it was worth protecting even if Lin Yun killed a direct descendant of the Wang Clan.In many cases, the right and wrong didn’t matter. The pavilion was a place where interest mattered.

“I know what you’re thinking. But this fellow killed someone in public during the Nine Stars Contest, not to mention that he even spoke rudely to me. The Sword Firmament Pavilion has never accepted such an unruly person for the past thousand years,” Bai Ting laughed coldly. “Today, I must abolish this person’s status as a disciple. Otherwise, what will happen to the pavilion’s rules? Does that mean that anyone can kill in the Sword Firmament Pavilion in the future?”

Not taking a step back, Luo Feng replied coldly, “Why didn’t you interfere when Wang Ning tried to force Lin Yun to death back in the forest? With me around, you can dream of abolishing his status as a disciple!”

Upon seeing this, Bai Ting started laughing and pointed his finger at Luo Feng, “Good! Good! Good! I’ll see if you can laugh in a while. I’ve already sent someone to inform the Sword-Bearing Hall. I’ll see who dares to protect him for killing someone from the Wang Clan!”

Xin Yan’s face changed when she heard the Sword-Bearing Hall. There was even a hint of tension on her face. The Sword-Bearing Hall was known for their ruthlessness, upholding the rules against anyone who had violated them. Over the years, anyone who violated the rules wouldn’t have a good ending.

It was a fact that Lin Yun had killed someone, which was against the rules. Otherwise, no one would follow the rules in the future. At that time, wouldn’t the Nine Stars Contest be thrown into chaos? Just thinking about it made Xin Yan feel her heart aching. On the contrary, her elder brother, Xin Jue, was rather calm about it.

With a smile, Luo Feng comforted, “Don’t worry about it. Let’s just wait and watch.”

Not long after, a young deacon ran over gasping for his breath. But he came along without any Sword-Bearing Elders coming with him. Upon seeing this, Wang Yan frowned, “Where’s the Sword-Bearing Elder? My younger brother died, and not even a Sword-Bearing Elder came?”

The deacon’s face was ugly. Looking at Bai Ting, he cupped his hands together, “The Sword-Bearing Hall said that they won’t be coming since Elder Bai Ting is presiding over the Nine Stars Contest. This matter will be fully handed to Elder Bai.”

A smile rose on Bai Ting’s lips when he heard that the Sword-Bearing Elders didn’t come. That meant that he could make a full decision for this matter.

Just when Luo Feng frowned his brows, the young deacon stuttered, “The Sword-Bearing Hall also said that…”

“What did they say?”

“They said that Elder Bai will be held responsible for the death of a Wang Clan’s descendant in the Nine Stars Contest. Lin Yun’s crime was unforgivable, but since he was still young, they could understand that he might be a little too rash. They also said to handle this at your discretion.”

Wang Yan immediately vomited a mouthful of blood when he heard what the deacon said. He still couldn’t understand what just happened. Why was the Sword-Bearing Hall taking Lin Yun’s side?

The smile on Bai Ting’s face also disappeared. He was dumbfounded. Lin Yun was the one who killed Wang Ning, and he was held responsible for it? He now knew why none of them came. So it turns out that they wanted him to take the fall for it.

When the senior disciples standing at the foot of the mountain saw this, all of them were laughing inwardly. But then again, it made sense. As one of the four major clans, the Wang Clan had foundations that ran deep in the empire.

But the Sword Firmament Pavilion was still a sect that transcended the empire, so it wasn't afraid of the Wang Family. If Lin Yun really had a garbage Martial Soul, then it wouldn’t matter if they gave him to the Wang Clan.

But the potential that Lin Yun had shown in his Martial Soul, aptitude, and sword intent, they believed that he could grow into a monstrous existence. If they couldn’t protect a genius like Lin Yun, how were they going to recruit anymore geniuses in the future?

So no matter how depressed Bai Ting felt, he knew that he would be taking the fall for Wang Ning’s death no matter what.

“Elder Bai, why don’t you say something about how you’re going to deal with this situation? Why are you still standing there?” Luo Feng smiled.

Bai Ting’s face was pale. Gnashing his teeth, he spoke out, “Bai Ting is ashamed in the trust that the pavilion has given me. I’m willing to take full responsibility for it.”

His voice was trembling, but in his heart, he was cursing like a madman. Wang Ning’s death had shit to do with him, but the Sword-Bearing Hall was saying that he didn’t do his job as the supervisor.

But there was nothing he could do to refute; he could only swallow it down. If he went and offended the Sword-Bearing Hall, he would be doomed in the future as long as he stayed in the Sword Firmament Pavilion.

“But Lin Yin has committed such a grave crime, and there’s no way to convince the mass if he’s not punished…”

Luo Feng and Xin Yan grew nervous when Bai Ting got to that point. It would be troublesome if this fellow wasn’t tactful and insisted on expelling Lin Yun out of the sect.

Looking at Lin Yun with fury brewing in his eyes, Bai Ting gnashed his teeth, “He will be punished to the Herbal Peak for three months of odd jobs. As his accomplice, Li Wuyou will also suffer the same punishment.”

When Bai Ting announced the punishment, both Luo Feng and Xin Yan felt relieved.

Status: Ongoing Type: Author: , , Native Language: Chinese
As a lawyer back on earth, Lin Yun had never lost a case. He owed his success to three things: two blessings he received at birth (a photographic memory and the ability to comprehend anything he studies) and an indomitable will he forged himself. While on a trip in Shandong province, he decided he would pay a visit to Mt. Tai. Just as he was cresting the peak, he felt a sharp pain in his chest and his vision went black. Upon waking up, he found himself in the world of Profound Amber occupying the body of a sword s*ave who had shared his name. The last thing he remembered before dying was the image of a sword piercing his chest. Through the memories his body retained the sword s*ave’s life, Lin Yun came to understand the brutality of this world. If he sought respect, he would have to earn it through strength. The weak found no compassion here. Refusing to leave his fate in the hands of others, Lin Yun set out to become a sovereign. No man or beast would stop him from achieving his destiny. With his sword in hand, he would overcome any obstacle.
