#4438 - The greed of the Western Sword Master!

Qin Yi's eyes were indifferent as he said, "How did I do it? Isn't it just because you're too weak!"

West Sword Master: "..."

He couldn't remember how many years it had been since someone had spoken to him like this.

What did this mean, that he was too weak?

He was a Ninth Order Saint, after all.

What kind of existence was a Ninth Order Saint?

Even among Saints, they were at the ceiling level.

If placed among the numerous cultivators.

They were at the very top of the pyramid.

He, as such an existence, was actually being told he was too weak!

His Dao Heart, already somewhat collapsing, was now breaking even faster because of this sentence.

Not only did the West Sword Master himself feel incredulous.

Many Saints within the situation also felt it was difficult to comprehend.

"What kind of outrageous words are these again? A Ninth Order Saint is being called too weak? I'm really starting to suspect if this guy is actually somewhat weak. In my mind, Ninth Order Saints shouldn't be at this level. How did this West Sword Master manage to raise his cultivation to the Ninth Order? Did he use some kind of shortcut? If there really is such a shortcut, once it's announced, it's bound to cause a huge uproar."

"I would believe it if you said this West Sword Master is weak, but I absolutely don't believe he used any shortcuts to reach the Ninth Order Saint level. That's impossible! What kind of existence is a Ninth Order Saint? How could someone like the West Sword Master take shortcuts? He's just plain weak. I used to think this guy was pretty strong, but now it seems I was thinking too much."

"Alright, no matter how weak the West Sword Master is, he's still a Ninth Order Saint. Do you know what a Ninth Order Saint is? A realm that's hard for us to reach even in our entire lives. How can you guys be talking so strangely now, openly evaluating the strength of a Ninth Order Saint? No matter how weak he is, he can easily kill all of us here with a casual move."

"We better not always slander a Ninth Order Saint behind their back. Ninth Order Saints are not someone we can slander. We need to clearly see how much we weigh. As for the safety of this West Sword Master, we don't need to worry too much. I don't think anything will happen to this guy. That's impossible! Instead, we need to focus more on when the barrier will break."

...

Logically speaking, in a battle between Ninth Order Saints.

The opponent shouldn't have the ability to maintain the barrier anymore.

But the opponent's strength was truly astonishing!

Until now, the barrier trapping them still remained stubbornly in place.

Without even the slightest sign of weakening.

This situation made many Saints feel a little uneasy.

They looked at each other, all wondering when this barrier could be broken.

This was no joke!

If the barrier didn't break soon, who knew when the battle would end.

Once the battle ended, the situation would fall into a stagnant state again.

The West Sword Master looked at Qin Yi and said, "Your strength far exceeds my expectations."

This was the truth. As a Ninth Order Saint himself, he knew very well what state his combat power was in.

Taking a step back, even if his combat power was a little weak, it shouldn't be this weak.

To be sent flying with a single slap? Unless this guy was pretending to be weak!

Thinking of this, the West Sword Master also felt a little powerless inside.

The phrase 'pretending to be weak' made him feel very upset.

To pretend to be weak against a Ninth Order Saint, just how heaven-defying must this guy be!

Or rather, he had provoked such a difficult guy...

The consequences were indeed difficult to fathom.

Qin Yi's voice came, another heavy blow to the West Sword Master.

"I also didn't expect there to be someone as weak as you among Ninth Order Saints."

With one sentence, the West Sword Master's heart directly broke!

He roared, "Your Excellency, I respect you, I hope you can also respect me!"

Respect? It didn't exist for Qin Yi!

Or rather, the other party didn't deserve his respect.

They had actually gotten involved in this muddy water because of some cultivation resources.

Moreover, he had already attacked Qin Yi earlier.

All these factors added up, also destined that Qin Yi would definitely not let the West Sword Master go.

The West Sword Master himself also thought of this.

From the killing intent that erupted from Qin Yi, he quickly understood the other party's thoughts.

The West Sword Master said to Qin Yi with some astonishment, "Are you planning to kill me?"

His words carried a lot of disbelief.

There were very few instances of Saints falling in battles between Ninth Order Saints.

From beginning to end, the West Sword Master didn't think he would fall into the other party's hands.

Qin Yi held the Killing Life Blade, and appeared in front of the West Sword Master the next moment.

The Killing Life Blade slashed down towards the West Sword Master.

"Boom~!"

A loud noise came out.

The West Sword Master was directly critically injured and on the verge of death.

Qin Yi's usual calm voice entered the West Sword Master's ears.

"Kill you? You wouldn't have never thought that you would fall because of this, would you."

One sentence pulled the West Sword Master, whose mind was still blank, back to reality.

It also made many Saints deep within feel fear.

They had now confirmed one thing, this Ninth Order Saint, the West Sword Master, was really not the opponent's match.

"I really want to say to the West Sword Master, at this level, what's worth extorting? Or what's the point of this guy extorting? He extorted his way into this situation, isn't he forcing himself into a dead end? Maybe today we'll see a Ninth Order Saint fall, it's really dreamlike. When did Ninth Order Saints become so fragile?"

"You say Ninth Order Saints are fragile? How is that possible! Besides, you can't say he extorted his way into this situation. Maybe the West Sword Master felt he wouldn't fall, so he forcibly entered the situation. It's really laughable to say that this guy directly forced himself into a desperate situation for some cultivation resources and treasures. He deserves it! But what are we going to do?"

"You're only now remembering that the fate of all of us is connected to the West Sword Master? I thought you brain-damaged guys wouldn't remember this. What else can we do besides stare blankly? There's no other better way. Who among you can get involved in this situation?"

"Get involved in the battle of that terrifying existence? Even if we have the courage to get involved, we're just cannon fodder. Do you know what cannon fodder is! Damn it, it's frustrating to even think about it! It still has to go back to the original cause. Why were we greedy? If we weren't greedy, none of this would have happened."
