And so they put away their treasures as well.
The drawn-swords, bent-bows tension naturally vanished like smoke and clouds.
Seeing their senior sect-master brother dissolve the conflict into nothing with a single sharp shout, the other Sword Lake Palace elders all sighed in admiration inwardly.
Yet when it came to the crisis they faced now, it did not help in the slightest.
Lin Xuan's advance remained as unstoppable as splitting bamboo. Even the carefully prepared Heaven Origin Five Elements Sword Array could not hold him back, let alone their other arrangements. Aside from adding to the casualties, they could not even delay him by the tiniest bit.
"This fellow is far too terrifying!"
The elders were at their wits' end. For a moment, their faces turned the color of earth. Not even in their dreams had they imagined that a small Cloud Hidden Sect would have such a high-level cultivator.
If they had known earlier that the sect had an old monster at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage presiding over it, whether they would have plotted for the dark Spirit Eye Lake was hard to say.
A look of regret flashed through many people's eyes.
But saying such things now was already too late. Once the bow was drawn, there was no turning back. How could the situation possibly still be settled amicably now?
Besides, so what if he was an old monster at the Tribulation Transcendence Stage? Did he truly think the main headquarters of Sword Lake Palace was molded from clay and pasted with paper, that he could come whenever he pleased?
If they did not teach him a lesson, where would This Palace's disciples put their faces?
It was just that this fellow was troublesome to the extreme.
Their attempts to stop him seemed to have become useless.
