Under Lin Yun’s gaze, more figures appeared in the sky above the Wuji Heavenly Palace.
The leader was none other than the Dao Alliance Master.
Back in Chaos City, the Dao Alliance Master had personally condensed a phantom projection and invited Lin Yun to join the alliance face to face, so Lin Yun recognised him at a glance.
The intelligence Zou Dongsheng had passed on earlier had not mentioned that the Dao Alliance was coming.
Lin Yun thought to himself that the intelligence must have missed this detail.
“I never expected the Dao Alliance to get involved as well, coming to destroy my Wuji Heavenly Palace.” Anger surged at once in Lin Yun’s dark eyes.
The revelation left him surprised, shocked, and furious.
Lin Yun examined his conscience. He certainly had deep enmity with the six great forces, having killed two of their Supremes in Chaos City.
But with the Dao Alliance, he believed matters had not yet reached the point of mortal hatred.
Even if one counted grudges, it only amounted to the Dao Alliance demanding that Lin Yun throw the peak competition and surrender the championship, which he had refused. Yet that had not been him actively provoking the Dao Alliance; they had been the ones to bully him first.
And now the Dao Alliance wanted to wipe him out.
Lin Yun knew the Dao Alliance was probably another pawn of the Heavenly Dao, but on the surface, at least, it was the justice alliance of the human race. By rights, it should not lightly do something like this.
When the previous Wuji Heavenly Palace had been destroyed, only the six great forces had joined hands. The Dao Alliance had not been involved at all.
How could Lin Yun not be enraged?
With even the Dao Alliance arriving, Lin Yun felt in his heart that his decision to abandon the palace and avoid direct battle had been absolutely correct.
He was also glad he had learned in advance that the six great forces intended to destroy him, allowing everyone to leave early.
Otherwise, the consequences would have been unthinkable.
In the sky.
“I did not expect the Dao Alliance to come too. This is interesting.”
“What a grand spectacle today.”
The nine Supremes of the five great forces all turned to look at the Dao Alliance contingent.
This time, the Dao Alliance had deployed only six Supremes plus the Alliance Master himself, seven in total.
The Alliance Master knew the five great forces would also act, so seven Supremes were more than sufficient. They had not revealed their full strength.
The Dao Alliance Master looked at the Supremes of the five great forces and said, “Supremes of the five great forces, today my Dao Alliance comes solely to uphold justice and order for the human race and to destroy the Wuji Heavenly Palace. Therefore, our grudges with your six great forces will be set aside for now.”
“Alliance Master, could your Dao Alliance have leaked the news? The Wuji Heavenly Palace is now completely empty,” the Master of the Star Poison Sect said coldly.
“What?” The Alliance Master’s expression changed.
He immediately looked down at the palace and saw that it was indeed the case.
Of course, he also noticed Lin Yun in the square.
“No matter what, as long as Lin Yun is still here, we can kill him first,” the Dao Alliance Master declared.
After all, their primary target was Lin Yun. Once he was dead, everything else would be negotiable.
He then gave the order to attack the formation.
Boom, boom, boom.
Terrifying attacks poured down like a torrential storm onto the array barrier.
Under the combined assault of so many Supremes, the array could not withstand it for long. In mere moments, it collapsed.
The instant the array shattered, the Dao Alliance Master immediately ordered them to seal the surrounding space together, guarding against Lin Yun escaping by any means.
The Dao Alliance Supremes swiftly circulated their inner force and carried out the sealing.
“Down we go.”
The Supremes from both the five great forces and the Dao Alliance descended to the square in the Wuji Heavenly Palace, landing directly in front of Lin Yun.
Naturally, the two groups kept a clear distance between them.
“Lin Yun, you command great respect. To kill you today, a full sixteen Supremes have come. Such treatment is unprecedented. Today, even if you could ascend to the heavens or burrow into the earth, you are certain to die. Haha!”
The Master of the God-Slaying Sect wore a ferocious grin, his laughter echoing across the empty square.
He had suffered at Lin Yun’s hands last time and had long awaited the day he could destroy him.
Lin Yun, who had been seated in the centre of the square, slowly rose to his feet and looked at the Dao Alliance Master and the six Supremes behind him.
“If I am not mistaken, the six Supremes behind the Alliance Master are the Master of the Dual Supreme Pavilion, the Clan Leader of the Void Clan, the Master of the White Mist Tower, the Valley Master of the Silent Moon Valley, the Clan Leader of the Dugu Clan, and the Palace Master of the Blue Feather Palace?” Lin Yun said slowly.
