Peerless War God

As an elder of the Immortal Weapon Sect, he enjoyed a noble status and was respected by countless people. He was high and mighty, but he never expected that he would have such a day.    

He was being pointed at by a sword, and he had no strength to resist.    

Yi Tianren knew very well that if his strength was crippled, he would be completely finished. This was ten times, or even a hundred times, crueler than killing him.    

Without strength, there was nothing.    

Bang.    

The purple misty sword beam flew in midair and was just about to pierce Yi Tianren. However, it was blocked by an invisible force, causing a soft sound. It actually stopped, completely blocked.    

“Oh?”    

When Marquis Zi Jin saw this, he frowned and looked up into the sky. He slowly retracted his sword beam.    

In midair, a slender figure was like a sword that could split the sky. He was dressed in a long robe, and his Immortal Qi was completely untainted. His aura was sharp, and his sword intent was condensed without leaking out.    

This person appeared out of thin air without any signs. No one present noticed his aura, which was very shocking.    

“Immortal Weapon Sect’s Great Elder, Yi Yun?”    

Marquis Zi Jin’s eyes focused as he said indifferently.    

Yi Yun, who was dressed in a green robe and had a straight face, smiled lightly. “Yes, Zi Jing. How have you been?”    

At that moment, the cultivators present put down their attacks and looked at Yi Yun with astonishment in their eyes.    

The people from the Seventh Prince’s faction were extremely excited. It was as if they had been injected with stimulants. Their eyes were glowing as their hearts were palpitating.    

“Yi Yun, the Immortal Artifact Sect’s Grand Elder, Yi Yun, has even personally made a move. That’s great!”    

“With Grand Elder Yi Yun making a move personally, we are definitely going to win.”    

“That’s right. It is rumored that Grand Elder Yi Yun’s strength is unfathomable. He rarely makes a move. Once he makes a move, he will shock the gods and the earth. With Elder Yi Yun’s help, we are definitely going to win. Haha!”    

Guo Sheng and the Blood Fairy exchanged glances. They were filled with ecstasy as they felt that they were definitely going to win.    

Upon seeing this, Heavenly Star Sword Supremacy stopped his attack. He came to Marquis Zi Jin’s side and stood opposite Yi Yun.    

At such a moment, it was necessary for someone to back him up.    

“Fu Zhenghong, you have lost. Even Grand Elder Yi Yun has personally made a move. Do you still want to struggle?”    

Li Haoran, who was engaged in a fierce battle, began to laugh brazenly. He looked like he was in high spirits.    

“Sigh.”    

Fu Zhenghong let out a long sigh. She was filled with helplessness.    

Of course, she knew that Li Haoran’s words were not wrong. With Yi Yun’s astonishing strength, once he made a move, the outcome of the battle was already decided. It was pointless no matter how much she fought for it.    

Marquis Zi Jin had a sullen expression as he asked in surprise, “Yi Yun, do you wish to interfere? If I remember correctly, according to the rules, the nine sects are not allowed to interfere with the matters of the Divine Realm. Isn’t that right? Or is it that you, as the Grand Elder of the Immortal Artifact Sect, wish to break this precedent?”    

Marquis Zi Jin's words were filled with a questioning tone, as well as a bit of impudence.    

The nine sects of the Divine Realm were transcendent existences. They were also colossal entities with unfathomable strength. They were the true rulers of the Divine Realm.    

A long time ago, in order to prevent the nine sects from fighting each other and affecting the peace of the Divine Realm, resulting in chaos, the nine sects came to an agreement.    

Ever since then, the cultivators of the nine sects were not allowed to meddle in the secular affairs of the Divine Realm.    

This was a gentleman's agreement, and it was also a rule that everyone abided by.    

Yi Yun shook his head and said, "That's not the case. The Yi family of the Immortal Weapon Sect will not break this rule that has been maintained for tens of thousands of years."    

"Oh, then what are you doing?" Marquis Zi Jin asked with a puzzled look.    

Yi Yun sighed and said with a tone that said he was disappointed, "Although he is useless, he is still my grandson. It would be bad if he died here."    

Upon hearing this, Marquis Zi Jin's expression turned cold. "So, you still want to meddle?"    

"Haha, you must be joking. I will say the same thing again. I will not meddle, but I will definitely protect Yi Tianren's life."    

Yi Yun said coldly, with a bold and arrogant attitude. He looked down on everything, as though he did not put Marquis Zi Jin in his eyes.    

Marquis Zi Jin was expressionless as he nodded and said, "Heh, no matter how you put it, you still want to meddle."    

"Yes, and no."    

"Oh? What do you mean?"    

"It's very simple. As the Patriarch of the Yi family, I saw you beat my grandson to such a state. If you did not do anything, wouldn't it be very unreasonable?"    

Yi Yun asked back.    

Purple Gold Marquis thought for a moment before nodding. “That’s the reason. So what are your plans?”    

“It’s simple. My Celestial Artifact Sect will withdraw from the internal competition for the throne of the Celestial Emperor. However, you have injured my grandson. This is a grudge that needs to be settled.”    

Yi Yun said coldly.    

Purple Gold Marquis did not show any fear as he cursed back. “What a joke. At the end of the day, it was Yi Tianren who meddled with the matter. We were merely retaliating. Yi Tianren’s defeat and injuries were his own fault for being inferior. If you were to protect him every time, you would die of exhaustion sooner or later.”    

Facing Great Elder Yi Yun, Purple Gold Marquis was not afraid at all. He retorted back and could not help but mock him.    

“You…” Yi Tianren was stunned by the anger. He never expected Purple Gold Marquis to be so arrogant.    

Even if Yi Yun was in front of him, he still dared to mock him. He was truly audacious.    

Yi Yun did not show any anger. He was as calm as an ancient well without any ripples. He said, “I will keep my word. My Yi family will withdraw from the matter of the Wushuang Dynasty and will not meddle. However, you have injured Yi Tianren and you have the intention to kill him. This grudge needs to be settled.”    

Purple Gold Marquis’s face was sullen as he pondered over Yi Yun’s words.    

Yi Yun’s words were extremely important. He would not speak nonsense and he had to take them seriously.    

“So, what do you plan to do?”    

“It’s simple. Take a move from me. Regardless of victory or defeat, today’s matter will be considered over. How about it?”    

Yi Yun said coldly.    

Upon hearing this, Yi Tianren was anxious. He could tell that Yi Yun was not here to help him, but to deal with the aftermath.    

According to Yi Yun's words, he would never interfere in the fight for the throne of the Peerless Divine Empire.    

This meant that all his previous actions were in vain.    

Not only was it useless, but he would also be reprimanded by Yi Yun, and he would have to settle the score afterward.    

With this in mind, Yi Tianren was anxious. He could no longer sit still and wanted to do something.    

"But, Patriarch…"    

"Shut up. Don't you feel ashamed enough? A disgraceful person," Yi Yun berated, leaving Yi Tianren speechless.    

"I…"    

Yi Tianren opened his mouth but closed it again.    

Yes, he was truly disgraced. He was an esteemed elder of the Immortal Weapon Sect, and he was famous, but he was given to a nameless itinerant cultivator. It was truly a disgrace.    

Thankfully, he had managed to save his life. If Yi Yun had not intervened, he would have been in a worse situation.    

The Purple Gold Marquis's sword attack was truly meant to take his life. Just thinking about it made him shudder.
