Nine-Colored Lotus

Chapter 446 The Great Elder of the Martial Arts Association Suffers Defeat

If Qinglong succeeds in breaking through, it will also be very beneficial for their subsequent plans.

There is no news from Xuan Niao, which means their current plans are proceeding very smoothly, and Xuan Niao must have been imprisoned by now.

Now, he is very worried about one thing: he is afraid that the Red Lotus Demoness will not keep her word and let Xuan Niao die in vain.

If Brother Qinglong can break through, it will increase the feasibility in his heart. Now, he can only place his hope on Brother Qinglong.

"Then, boss, do you think Brother Qinglong has a chance to break through?"

Yuan Gang asked very worriedly, and Ye Longlin saw the worry on his face.

He frowned subconsciously and asked with a hint of doubt, "You seem very concerned about whether he can break through."

Yuan Gang was startled and secretly thought it was not good. He quickly explained, "Of course, Brother Qinglong is very strong. If Brother Qinglong breaks through, our strength can also reach a higher level."

To avoid being discovered, he could only lie.

But this was also true. If Qinglong broke through, he would be the second Dao realm expert in the Dragon Pavilion, which would be of great significance to the Dragon Pavilion.

"It's not certain."

Ye Longlin shook his head slightly. He was not sure if Qinglong could break through or pierce that layer of window paper.

In the arena, Qinglong had already made his move.

Both were top-grade Dragon Elephant realm powerhouses. When they moved, it was like the sky collapsing and the earth cracking. The entire scene seemed to have turned into a killing field, with the ground shattering layer by layer and the earth shaking.

"As soon as possible, try to be quieter."

Ye Longlin's voice slowly came. The Qinglong below was slightly stunned, indicating that he understood and would control himself.

Lin Ye looked up after hearing this voice.

With this glance, he saw Ye Longlin, and his gaze instantly turned sinister, with intense hatred in his eyes.

If it weren't for him, he wouldn't have fallen out of the Investiture of the Gods. Otherwise, with his tenth position on the Investiture of the Gods, he could be a top existence anywhere.

It was also because of his existence that he fell out of the Investiture of the Gods.

Over the years, he had challenged the tenth position almost every year, but he had never been able to win. In fact, under his immense pressure, the tenth position had already become the eighth, and the original ninth position had dropped to tenth, still under his immense pressure, and also stepped into the top-grade Dragon Elephant realm.

The more this was the case, the stronger his hatred for Ye Longlin became.

It was during this moment of distraction that Qinglong attacked again.

Top-grade Dragon Elephant against top-grade Dragon Elephant.

The clashes between peak powerhouses caused this area to vibrate violently, a terrifying sight. The more than ten martial arts disciples outside watched the arena dumbfounded, feeling as if they would die if they got any closer.

"Ye Longlin!"

Lin Ye suddenly withdrew, charging towards Ye Longlin regardless of everything else, even ignoring Qinglong behind him, letting Qinglong's punch land on his back, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.

The attack from bottom to top arrived in front of Ye Longlin in an instant!

Ye Longlin shook his head slightly, "Why do you provoke me?"

As soon as his voice fell, he tapped his toe, and a stream of light flashed from top to bottom. His foot landed on Lin Ye, forcefully stomping him into the ground.

"If you had sparred properly with Qinglong and helped him break through to the Dao realm, you might have been spared today. But if you insist on seeking death, then there's nothing I can do."

Ye Longlin's move was truly earth-shattering.

Xu Changfeng, the second elder of the Martial Arts Association, was once again scared to his knees, his eyes bulging outwards with fear.

He originally thought that since Grand Elder Lin Ye had personally entered the fray, the other party would surely not survive, but he didn't expect that the other party would also do it in one move!

What the hell, what realm is he in!

A terrifying thought flashed through his mind, and then this thought uncontrollably occupied his entire mind!

Impossible!

He couldn't be in the Dao realm!

Judging by the current situation, the other party could easily suppress Elder Lin Ye. It was very likely that he was in the mid-grade Dao realm. If that were the case... even if the Eight Thousand Year Old came, it would be useless. The final outcome would only be suppression!

Dao realm existences are not something that can be compensated for by numbers!

Moreover... it can be seen that Qinglong had been suppressing Elder Lin Ye all along. If Elder Lin Ye hadn't insisted on provoking him... well, it seemed like it was only a matter of who died first.

Lin Ye had the same thought. He felt that his decades of life had been lived for nothing. He, the dignified Grand Elder of the Martial Arts Association, formerly tenth on the Investiture of the Gods, was now being suppressed by the other party's subordinate!

Moreover, he was suppressed by a single kick.

Suddenly, he thought of something. Lin Ye spat out a mouthful of blood, suddenly feeling a premonition.

"The Lord of the Dragon Pavilion, the Five-Star Heavenly King, the Head of the Military Ranking, the Head of the Investiture of the Gods, all of them are you, aren't they?"

After Lin Ye guessed this, he immediately asked, his face pale, with blood at the corner of his mouth, looking extremely disheveled.

Ye Longlin did not speak, clearly implicitly admitting it.

As a high-ranking official of the Martial Arts Association, an elder of the top-grade Dragon Elephant realm, he was also a generation's hero. With a raise of his hand, countless disciples of the Martial Arts Association would bow in greeting.

He thought that he was already one of the peak figures of this era.

But he never expected that there would always be someone better.

With the blessings of his many identities, his martial arts cultivation had already become so terrifying.

"You didn't hold back during the Investiture of the Gods battle back then, did you?"

Lin Ye was still unwilling to give up. If he couldn't clarify this matter, he wouldn't die in peace.

This matter had plagued him for many years. Now that the answer was right before his eyes, he wanted to get the answer he desired.

Ye Longlin was surprised for a moment, not expecting that he still cared about this matter. After a moment of thought, he retorted, "When someone's cultivation is higher than yours, and after they have returned to their original simplicity, do you think they are not using their full strength?"

After receiving this answer, Lin Ye was still unwilling. This was not the answer he wanted.

His face instantly became ferocious, and his entire face became extremely terrifying.

"No, there was a conspiracy back then. The Hall of Honor pushed you up. Tell me, tell me the truth!"

Lin Ye roared, unable to believe that this was true.

At that time, he was not yet twenty-three!

How could a young man under twenty-three honestly defeat the head of the Investiture of the Gods?

It was simply impossible!

He believed that the entire matter was a conspiracy theory!

Ye Longlin looked at him with pity, shook his head slightly, "There was never a conspiracy. Everything happened naturally. It's you who has never been able to get past your own mental hurdle. From beginning to end, I never took you seriously. It was like that years ago, and it's still the same now."

"It's you who has been deceiving yourself, unwilling to believe that you have fallen from your pedestal, and you've been wishful thinking."
