Lin Dan was not the original owner of this body and was not blinded by love. If Bai Yan was merely a weak scholar, he would not be able to live comfortably in the Eastern Holy Sect, neither would he be able to train He Yufei into a first-rate master within a short time. Since he was keeping his true abilities, he must have an ulterior motive for entering the sect.
Bai Yan did not panic at all. He slowly nodded his head and said, "Yes."
Lin Dan stood up immediately. She drew out the vigorous Asura Sword that had been devouring blood. She asked solemnly, "Why?" She could not sense Bai Yan's breath. He was completely like an ordinary person but this showed how scary his true identity could be. With Lin Dan's current skill, she could see through a person's identity at one glance but she could not see through him. This meant that Bai Yan's level was beyond one level above her.
Just what level was above a Half-step Grandmaster...? It was the Grandmaster!
Lin Dan held the hilt of the sword tightly and took a step forward. Her stance seemed like she was facing a powerful enemy, but she remained calm.
Bai Yan stood with his hands behind his back and slowly said: "The Asura Sword Technique is originally a forbidden technique from my sect but it was stolen by the Eastern Holy Sect. My master's dying words were – if Asura has descended into this world, we must gather the power of the entire sect and kill him."
Lin Dan nodded slightly to show that she understood what he was saying. She was not interested in Bai Yan's sect and its origin, but she understood why his master left such dying words. Anyone who mastered the Asura Sword Technique could easily lose their mind. In addition to that, the cultivator's life aura would circulate in their heart so vigorously that it would be difficult for anyone to kill them.
A killing machine that could never be killed. Who knew what kind of impact would it make in the outside world? Lin Dan closed her eyes. She could already foresee the tragedy – rivers of blood and bodies lying everywhere. She did not defend herself and said calmly after raising her sword, "Fight me."
Bai Yan did not make any move but scrutinized her face before looking at the line at her feet.
He Yufei was completely confused at the situation. She looked at both of them and asked in surprise, "Master, y-you knew how to fight?" He Chongling checked Bai Yan's pulse before and said that he was only an ordinary person with no inner force.
Bai Yan and Lin Dan ignored her and stood without moving an inch, eyes focused on each other.
After a while, Bai Yan actually took a step back and said, "I won't kill you today. You may leave."
Lin Dan quickly understood what he meant. He was only letting her off today and may come after her in the future. But he sounded certain when he said, "kill you," as if killing a Half-step Grandmaster was an easy task for him. It was obvious that he was one of the five Grandmasters whose skills were far beyond Lin Dan's current level.
"Why should I seek death when I could live on?" Lin Dan thought. She was no fool and flew away after keeping her sword. Bai Yan tapped his toes lightly and followed after.
Looking at the two who seemed to be flying away slowly but were traveling a thousand miles in the blink of an eye, He Yufei was stunned. She thought Lin Dan was a poor and pathetic woman but did not expect her to take He Chongling's head in an instant, acting more decisive than anyone; she thought Bai Yan was a weak scholar but did not expect him to be fearless facing Lin Dan who was a Half-step Grandmaster.
