Defeating the Heir of the Sunflowers was not easy.
But the system’s reward turned out to be very sweet. As many as three million experience!
Lin Yi smiled with satisfaction and nodded to himself. The production over the past few days made him very happy. First, a million for each elder who challenged, and then another three for two victories.
With his current strength and three platinum techniques at once, he could defeat even experts who had barely risen to the peak of the first class, as it turned out, without much danger to his life. But murder, of course, is a completely different matter. Anyone who rose to that level knew how to defend their life.
Here, Wei Wu, for example. Lin Yi moved a little faster than him, but he would not have been able to catch up, because to do this he would have had to predict where he would turn and constantly fight off the needles.
Not to mention that the duration of the chase could not be known in advance, and now the disciples of two more sects needed his help. He would end up wasting his time..
He managed to drive away the enemy and earn experience, it was worth it.
Moreover, Lin Yi had already risen from minor pawns to the top of the world. Once he was greedy and chased prey, but quickly realized that this led to nothing.
Short-term gain often cuts off the path to real treasures. You can eat seeds, or you can grow a crop. In battle, you always had to keep your head cool and think primarily about what was beneficial to you personally. Otherwise, you won’t be able to survive in the world of fists, especially now, with the start of the war..
With these thoughts, Lin Yi smiled slightly and looked around.The Second Elder of the Sacred Cult received quite a few wounds from Elders Qin and Jingning. Noticing that his comrade had been defeated, he made a sharp, sweeping attack and ran away.
Lin Yi chuckled. With all the talk about courage and honor, only cowards rose to the top of the fist world. Only those who sensibly assess their capabilities knew when to retreat.
Over the decades in the game, he had only heard of a couple of deaths at the hands of the supreme experts of the evil cults. Each time these events shook the balance of power. If only because it meant the complete collapse of a large sect.
In three decades, no more than ten supreme experts have died. Most of them were so old that they themselves would have died within a few years.
So let them run away as much as they want. The more important thing is that the young generation of Huashan and Hengshan survived, but the cult of Ming and the Sun did not.
Lin Yi had not yet even thought about killing the leaders of vicious cults. All this is just fantasy even for the supreme experts. The defense of tens of thousands of experts with inner strength is too great.
After all, supreme experts are also people, not gods.
With two arms and legs, how can you keep track of everything??
One person is not enough, which is why the battles were mainly fought by third- and second-class experts. As for the supreme ones, they are creatures of strategic importance and therefore did not appear on the battlefield. Only at the last stages.
They have already achieved everything, why should they risk their lives? If a battle can be avoided, then it must be avoided.
Because a fight against an expert of the same level, no matter what the outcome, will almost certainly bring injuries. And if the strongest expert of the sect has weakened, then how could one choose a more suitable time to attack??
Huashan was destroyed in the game due to a miscalculation by Ouyang Ming, who died in battle. Lin Yi could not risk himself, because the fate of hundreds of thousands of students and millions of subjects depended only on him.
So, if he found himself in a similar situation, he would also run away, and only then figure out how to take revenge. Anything is better than taking a chance and dying.

Wu Shouyu again took command of the detachment and, together with the Huashan battle formation, killed everyone they managed to catch up with.
Linghu Feng, with his bloody sword, resembled a death machine. He pursued them with frantic ferocity and cut down everyone the blade could reach. He had no opponents either among the third or second class.
With the Nine Lonely Swords and supreme power, he truly unleashed his talent.
Although in this life he did not acquire the Divine Skill of the Violet Mist, he discovered the will of the sword much earlier, and thanks to training with it, he has already reached the level that he spent several decades achieving in his previous life.
Gradually he turned into a sword god.
He would have lost to both Wei Wu and Yang Xiaofeng, but only because of insufficient inner strength. Another year will pass, maximum two, and he will definitely overtake them.
Once Linghu Feng breaks through to first grade, these two will lose to him. Although he can only kill them by climbing to the top.
Removing his gaze from Linghu Feng, Lin Yi looked at the others and shook his head, noticing the nuns collecting the bodies of their sisters.
Unfortunately, not everyone was saved. Hengshan suffered losses.
It was a cause for grief, but not for disappointment. Compared to the complete destruction in their previous life, they escaped with scratches. Even if dozens of third-class experts died, it would have almost no effect on the overall strength of Hengshan.
In a word, they made it. This will hardly serve as a consolation to the dead. But they made it in time for those who survived.
Alas, the war has begun. Death will be everywhere.
Lin Yi himself did not know whether a stray sword or arrow would kill him. He may have been the strongest of his generation, but once he stumbled upon the supreme expert, only death awaited him. You can't even escape.
Such is the fist world.
.˙.
“Elder Sister, so many of our sisters have died...” said Yiqian, sobbing.
Everywhere around she noticed familiar faces, but disfigured by death..
“Alas...” Chu Yaoyin sighed, holding back tears..
“Put off grief until later!” Lin Yi ordered loudly.
“Big brother!” greeted Chu Yaoyin and tried to get up, but he motioned for her to lie down.
“Big Brother Lin!” Yiqian exclaimed, not knowing what emotions she was experiencing.
Lin Yi sighed and patted her on the head..
“My condolences, but now is not the time to cry. Better be glad that at least someone managed to escape. In the end, the main catastrophe of our century has begun, and it will be the greatest in several generations. You can't escape from her.”
“Big brother, are you saying...?” Chu Yaoyin did not dare to complete the thought.
Yiqian also stopped crying and looked into his eyes, puzzled..
Lin Yi nodded with a serious face:
“The demons first attacked us, now they attack you. And they will attack everyone else from the Alliance too. Hmph. Everyone knew they were eager to return to the Central Plains, and now that day had come. Chaos has already taken root among us.”
“Child, what are you talking about?” Elder Jinning asked.
“Master Jinning,” Lin Yi greeted her politely.
She threw aside the ceremony and asked:
“Has the war against evil cults begun??”
“I'm afraid so. Both of our sects were attacked. I think they will make an attempt on the other two when they return home, if they haven’t already. The demons would not have dared to do such insolence if they were not ready for war.”
He repeated to her what he had told Elder Qing and the others. Finally, folding his hands in a gesture of politeness, he said:
“Master Jinning, I'm afraid Taishan and Southern Hengshan are also under attack. We must go to their aid; delay will cost lives. Therefore, Huashan will continue on its way, and you return to Hengshan. I only hope that you will agree to gather at Hua Mountain this same day next month to discuss the Alliance's strategy against the evil cults. No one can avoid participating in this war, but our sects will bear the biggest blow, so now more than ever it is important to fight the demons together.”
Jinning nodded, she also understood the importance of the question.
“I will definitely tell the head of the monastery.”
Lin Yi nodded:
“Thank you. Now please hurry to Hengshan. Demons may be attacking your territory right now.”
Jinning's face immediately changed and nodded..
Lin Yi said goodbye and immediately called the Huashan disciples to continue on their way.
