Unrivaled Martial Emperor

Chapter 375 - Killed Instantly

Lin Qi domineeringly sentenced Chen Fan to death as soon as he entered the arena.

"Quite the bold claim," Chen Fan remarked with indifference.

“I have the strength to back it up!” Lin Qi asserted, his gaze tinged with contempt as he eyed Chen Fan. “You probably have no idea how I got my nickname, Swift Blade Lin Qi. You will soon find out.”

Lin Qi put on an arrogant expression and continued, “My blade skill is rooted in speed. Either you defeat me swiftly, or I take you down with speed. There's no other outcome.”

"Since my debut, none have escaped my deadly swift blade," Lin Qi boasted. "You'll soon join the list."

“But... since we are from the same sect, I can offer you a way out reluctantly. All you have to do is kneel, kowtow, and admit your wrongdoings. Oh, and also cripple your cultivation. Otherwise, don’t blame me for not showing mercy as a fellow disciple. You probably know this, but no one will say anything even if I kill you in this fight.

“Now, you’ve until I count to three. Refuse, and I will send you to your death. Your choice will decide if you’ll be alive to see the sunrise tomorrow.”

Lin Qi started counting.

“One—”

Chen Fan interrupted him and said indifferently, “You talk too much. I’m getting calluses on my ears. Fine, I will kill you. I didn’t want to kill you even though you are an alliance member, but your words have convinced me. ‘Bringing about one's own destruction' fits you perfectly."

“What!” Lin Qi raised his eyebrows. His anger rose to the skies, and the sharp blade qi around him swept out as he said savagely, “You reckless little bastard, it seems I was being too nice to you. Since you rejected my kindness, I'll grant your wish. It's too late for regrets now!”

Shing!

Enraged and seething, Lin Qi drew his blade, vanishing from sight.

A streak of white light sliced down at Chen Fan with swiftness, splitting the air and creating a whirlwind.

Chi, chi, chi...

The airflow in the space became incomparably sharp. It distorted and cut everything in its path. Even Chen Fan’s clothing was torn apart by this invisible blade qi.

“Such a fast stroke. It’s formless and traceless. No wonder he's called the Swift Blade!"

"My word, when did Lin Qi strike? Did anyone catch it?"

“Chen Fan is dead for sure. He hasn't even reacted yet; he's stuck in the moment before the attack."

“He’s done for. This blade is fast as lightning, leaving nothing behind. There’s no way to avoid it!”

“......”

Outside the battlefield, the eliminated disciples and everyone else exclaimed in shock.

Lin Qi’s attack had been too fast, indescribably and incomprehensibly. It was simply impossible to tell when he launched his attack.

“Eh, this Lin Qi seems interesting. He’s demonstrating the word ‘swift’ to the extreme. Of all martial arts under the heavens, only speed cannot be defeated. When one reaches a certain level of speed, the power they can bring out becomes very terrifying.”

In the space at the highest stand, the elders were all paying attention to this match, their eyes shining with interest.

The white blade light cleaved Chen Fan at once.

Chla!

“Indeed, Chen Fan couldn’t react in time.”

“This battle ended too quickly.”

“Hmmm? Look! There’s no blood!”

“......”

Lin Qi had seemingly cleaved Chen Fan, but there wasn’t a hint of joy on his face. It turned out he had merely split the air, cleaving an afterimage of Chen Fan.

Chen Fan’s voice rang out from the side.

“Your speed is not bad; unfortunately, you’re slow as a snail in my eyes. Where did you find the confidence to boast? Was it from Heaven’s Alliance or Duan Jingtian?”

Chen Fan looked at Lin Qi indifferently with his arms crossed.

“Chen Fan is not dead! Heavens, Lin Qi merely cut his afterimage. Chen Fan is even faster than Lin Qi’s blade. It’s incredible!” exclaimed the crowd in shock and disbelief.

“You damned little bastard, go to hell!” Lin Qi was livid. Steam rose from the top of his head, his seven orifices smoking from anger.

Lin Qi slashed at Chen Fan with his swift blade again.

Clang, clang, clang, clang, clang...

No figure, no blade silhouette; only streaks of snow-white light intersected in the air, forming an inescapable net that enveloped Chen Fan.

The incredibly sharp blade qi disrupted the air and fell on the arena. Sparks flew everywhere like fireworks had been set off.

Chi, chi, chi...

“Heavens, how terrifying. The blade turned into an inescapable net? Slash after slash, each faster than the last. It’s like lightning! You can only watch as you get chopped to death.”

“Chen Fan will be sliced and diced like a potato!”

“Swift blade is a blade technique with extreme speed and the power to turn mediocrity into a miracle!”

“......”

The crowd outside stared wide-eyed, their hearts beating intensely, shaken by Lin Qi’s fierce storm of attacks.

However, a leisurely voice came from behind Lin Qi. “Too slow!”

At some point in time, Chen Fan had slipped out of the entrapment of the blade light net and silently positioned himself behind Lin Qi.

“I was wondering how fast your swift blade could be, but that’s all it is. I overestimated you. It's understandable. A piece of trash like you would think it is all that if the crowd keeps calling it Swift Blade. Trash is still trash, in the end.”

“What?” Lin Qi was truly shaken. His eyeballs darted around in disbelief.

He turned around stiffly and looked at Chen Fan, feeling like he was about to vomit blood in frustration.

“Alright, your end is here. Despite your countless strikes, you couldn’t even reach the hem of my clothing. Now, it's my turn to strike. If you withstand it, I'll spare your insignificant life.”

Chen Fan suddenly moved, simultaneously unleashing a stunning sword technique from above.

Returning Nightless to its sheath, Chen Fan turned around and left.

For a moment, time seemed to stand still. A line of blood appeared on Lin Qi's face, running from his forehead to his neck.

Chen Fan killed Swift Blade Lin Qi with a single stroke of his sword!
