C490 Unable to Turn Back
Huge tears flowed out of Yun Shang's eyes. Her heart was not evil. Otherwise, she would not have spent so much effort to stop Yang Qin from joining the Qilin Academy. Instead, she would have killed him without anyone knowing.
"Why did you do that back then?"
Yun Shang was silent for a long time. Then, she said, "The resources obtained by the Three Great Academies are in every competition. The resources will be distributed according to the outcome of the competition. The Phoenix Academy will not be able to defeat the Azure Dragon Academy, which is full of geniuses. If you want to get more resources, you have to get them from the Qilin Academy. "
"The fewer resources the Qilin Academy gets, the more resources the Phoenix Academy will get."
"That year, the Phoenix Academy got a secret report that they found a child of the Humble Class in the Ice Snow Domain with a shocking bloodline and talent. According to the recruitment rules set by the three academies, as long as he could break through to the Heavenly Martial Stage, we will definitely be able to enter the Qilin Academy."
"With his cultivation speed at that time, entering the Qilin Academy is a sure thing. Once he enters the Qilin Academy, he will have the Qilin Academy as his backing, providing him with a huge amount of cultivation resources. It is very likely that he will surpass the geniuses of the same generation in ten years' time. "
"This is something that the Phoenix Academy cannot allow, so I have received the order to eliminate Yang Qin."
Yun Shang used a secret technique that could shorten her voice to communicate with Wang Hao. Even Elder Lee, who was very close to her, could not hear her.
Elder Lee frowned slightly, but because of his status and identity, he did not want to eavesdrop on their conversation.
Wang Hao was silent. He suddenly remembered what Zhao Wudi had said to him before he left Ice Snow Domain.
"Three Great Academies is a heaven for martial artists, and also hell!"
After a long time, Wang Hao asked, "But you didn't kill him."
"Yes, I didn't kill him." Yun Shang seemed to be immersed in her memories, "With my new identity as a disciple, I sneaked into the Snow Sword Sect and prepared to kill Yang Qin according to the academy's request."
"I pretended to be a stupid junior sister and purposely approached Yang Qin. He was very enthusiastic about me and even wasted his time to teach me how to cultivate."
"After getting along with him for a few days, I felt a great sense of guilt in my heart. I wanted to kill such a person who has never done anything evil."
"I hesitated, but I couldn't do it. During my hesitation, half a month had already passed."
"During this half a month, he took good care of me, but I have the orders of the academy. If I can't stop him from joining the Qilin Academy, I will definitely be punished by the academy, and even expelled."
"I have finally made up my mind. I will invite him to fight me one day. I will use my true strength to kill him when he is unprepared!"
"In the end, I was unable to kill him. I realized in panic that the reason I couldn't kill him was not only because of the crime of killing an innocent person, but also because I... fell in love with him!"
"In the days to come, I fell deeper and deeper. However, the time that the academy left for me was getting lesser and lesser. Later on, an elder came looking for me. She told me... If I don't make a move now, she will personally make a move. Kill Yang Qin!"
" I panicked... I didn't sleep for the whole night. The next day... Yang Qin came to say goodbye to me and said that he was going to participate in the competition between the four big sects of Ice Snow Domain. He wanted to make the final contribution to the sect before heading to Holy Domain. He wants to repay the sect and the Sect Master for cultivating them."
"I know that I don't have much time left. I won't allow him to die, but I can't protect him. In the end, I thought of a compromise."
"I beg the elder. If I can stop Yang Qin from entering the Qilin Academy, I won't kill him. The elder has agreed, but she will only give me one chance. If I fail, she will end everything."
"You will know what happens next. I purposely went to steal the cultivation technique and was discovered by others, pretending to be killed by the Sect Master Lee Yunlong."
"Yang Qin loves me dearly. My death has broken his state of mind. Before the age limit, he will never break through to the Heavenly Martial Stage."
Hearing Yun Shang's explanation, Wang Hao's cold heart melted a little. He could tell that Yun Shang was telling the truth.
She did fall in love with Yang Qin and did those things to protect his life.
In the end, she was also a pitiful person.
Wang Hao said in a deep voice, "Who was the one who sent you to assassinate Yang Qin and the one who forced you to kill him in Ice Snow Domain?"
"Elder Chang Hong and Elder Yu Luo." Yun Shang's voice was filled with hatred. If it wasn't for these two people forcing her, she wouldn't have known Yang Qin, and she wouldn't have let the person she loved fall into the abyss of eternal damnation.
Wang Hao engraved these two names into his heart. There was some hatred in his heart. No matter how long it took, he wouldn't retreat.
Yun Shang wiped away the tears on her face. She stood up and looked at Wang Hao.
"Your strength has long surpassed Yang Qin's. Did you kill him?"
"It's not his fault."
"A trace of relief flashed across Yun Shang's eyes. "Many thanks! If he dies because of me, I will be trapped by the shackles of evil for the rest of my life."
She paused for a moment and said resolutely, "Although the Snow Sword Sect was not destroyed by me, I am the source of karma. If you want to take revenge for the vengeful souls of the Snow Sword Sect, then come at me!"
"Boom!"
A violent aura erupted from Yun Shang's body. From her feather clothes, countless colorful ribbons floated out like a peacock spreading its tail.
The despair and confusion in Yun Shang's eyes were completely gone!
Wang Hao was slightly shocked in his heart. To be able to get rid of the negative emotions in his heart so quickly, Yun Shang was definitely not an ordinary person!
"I have let Yang Qin down. When this competition ends, I will naturally atone for my crimes. However, I have gone through a lot of hardships to walk further and further from the path of martial arts. I want to defeat you and become the Situation Breaking Ten Persons. I want to walk even further!"
Yun Shang's fighting spirit rose crazily. She could no longer turn back and had to look forward!
"Come!"
When the Dragon Abyss Sword was in his hand, Wang Hao's body also erupted with a violent aura, as well as rising combat intent!
He was already prepared to fight. Yun Shang's outburst was exactly what he wanted.
Elder Li silently retreated, "Martial competition, begin!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yun Shang was the first to attack. She waved her jade-like arm, and dozens of ribbons flew towards Wang Hao.
"Sword One, Sword-Breaking Style!"
Yun Shang's attack did not have any intention of probing. She attacked with all her strength. Similarly, Wang Hao did not hold back at all.
Infusing the bloodline power into the sword technique, the phantom image of Yazi appeared on the Dragon Abyss Sword, and it opened its mouth and roared.

The sword wind surged and shattered the ribbon that was wrapped around it.
For a moment, the ribbon fragments filled the sky, and fell to the ground like rainbow-colored snowflakes.
"Rainbow Soul Dart!"
Yun Shang shouted and her hands formed seals at the same time. When she put her palms together, the ribbon fragments that filled the sky turned into a cross shaped Dart and started spinning rapidly.
"Weng! Weng!"
The boomerang spun and made a buzzing sound. In the next moment, thousands of colorful darts shot towards Wang Hao from all directions, completely enveloping his body and making it impossible for him to dodge!
"Can you freely control the ribbon?"
Wang Hao quickly changed his move, and his attacking martial skill transformed into a defensive martial skill.
"First style of Waterdrop Sword Technique!"
The sword shadow turned into a mist of rain, completely covering Wang Hao's body.
The colorful darts collided with the rain and shattered instantly. In the blink of an eye, Wang Hao had broken out of the tight encirclement.
"Seven-Colored Soul Thorn!"
Yun Shang let out another tender cry. The ribbon she controlled started to spin rapidly and condensed into sharp needles.
When the first sharp spike was in front of him, Wang Hao didn't hesitate to swing his sword in an attempt to shatter it. However, what Wang Hao didn't expect was that when the Dragon Abyss Sword and the spikes collided, a metallic sound could be heard.
"So hard?"
Wang Hao's left eye emitted a golden color. He ignited the Golden Pupil.
Through the Golden Pupil, Wang Hao could see that every thorn was filled with oceanic Yuan energy.
"He actually used Yuan energy to forcefully refine the ribbon into a Profound Artifact?"
Wang Hao sneered. He stepped into the void and rushed towards the incoming spikes at an even faster speed.
"Wind Cloud Twelve Styles!"
Wang Hao waved the Dragon Abyss Sword at an extremely fast speed. Every time he swung his sword, there was no useless movement. It was simple and efficient.
The spikes were all slashed to the side by Wang Hao. In the blink of an eye, he had already arrived in front of Yun Shang.
"Justice Sword!"
Wang Hao waved the sword in his right hand to deflect the last spike. He condensed the Justice Sword in his left hand and slashed towards Yun Shang's side.
Everything happened in a split second. Many of the audience's martial artists only blinked a few times, and the outcome seemed to be about to be decided.
But Wang Hao knew that with just this kind of attack, it was impossible to defeat Yun Shang. He was forcing Yun Shang to use her trump card.
However, the Justice Sword in his left hand was about to hit Yun Shang, but her opponent was still unmoved.
There was a trace of a smile in Yun Shang's eyes. In Wang Hao's heart, a strong sense of unease quickly gathered.
"Kacha!"
A clear cracking sound came from underneath Wang Hao. Wang Hao's pupils contracted. He had been staring at Yun Shang. He did not expect the danger to come from beneath him.
"Bang!"
The arena below Wang Hao exploded, and a huge seven-colored flower rushed out from under Wang Hao's feet.
The flower petals shrunk, and like a huge mouth, it swallowed Wang Hao.
"It's over."
Yun Shang smiled. When she recovered her mental state, she had already prepared a backup plan.
"Pfft!"
A ray of bloody light pierced out from the huge flower. In the next moment, the flower petals exploded and Wang Hao's figure reappeared on the arena.
"This trick is useless to me."
The two of them were very close to each other. Without hesitation, Wang Hao thrust out the sword in his hand. It was as fast as lightning.
"Pa!"
The Dragon Abyss Sword's sword momentum stopped. Yun Shang extended two fingers and used a very small amount of strength to clamp down on the sword body.
It was not that Yun Shang's two fingers were powerful enough to clamp Wang Hao's sword, but the current Wang Hao could not use any strength at all.
His face was even paler than paper, but his lips were purple like black.
This was a typical symptom of poisoning!
"How could it be..."
Wang Hao withdrew his sword. He was about to lose his balance. He frantically urged the Hornless Dragon Bloodline, but the speed at which he cured the poison was as slow as a snail.
Ever since the awakening of the Hornless Dragon Bloodline, no matter what kind of poison Wang Hao encountered, the speed at which he cured the poison wouldn't be lower than three breaths.
But this time, it had completely exceeded his imagination.
Behind Yun Shang, the Bloodline Soul appeared. It was a seven-colored body... Peacock!
