Elder Strikes, Stomping the Various Sects Underfoot

The Shi Family elder's words carried thirty percent sincerity and seventy percent threat.

"A holy land of the Central Domain!"

"The Shi Family is actually connected to a holy land in the Central Domain!"

The sects below the stage that had been unaware of this were all shocked.

One had to know that the Central Domain was a sacred cultivation land yearned for by all cultivators.

Its spiritual energy was several times richer than that of the Eastern Domain, a region where danger and opportunity coexisted, ruled by Supreme Realm and Great Emperor Realm experts.

It could be said that the sects of their Eastern Domain were not even worthy to carry their shoes.

Of course, if Feng Qingyang heard that, he would definitely give him two resounding slaps. Who do you think you are, ordering my Azure Cloud Sect around? Carrying shoes, my ass!

Not far away, the Elder of Heaven's Secret Pavilion's eyes lit up at the sight.

"After wearing out iron shoes in fruitless search, I found it without any effort at all!"

"The opportunity has come."

He observed them for a moment. Of the five people from the Azure Cloud Sect, the man who had acted earlier was at the peak of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

The others were an utterly ordinary man in black and an unfathomable young man. But the two were far too young—he could practically be their grandfather—so their cultivation could not be that high.

As for Shi Hao and that piece of trash at the initial stage of the Qi Refining Realm, he ignored them entirely.

Shi Hao and Lin Bai: Are you even being polite?

Thus, he sent voice transmissions to those forces again, telling them to take the lead in attacking the Azure Cloud Sect.

"Rest assured, Elder. Our Mo Hai Sect will help with this."

"And our Fuyang Sect!"

"In broad daylight, there are actually such traitors! No matter whose people they are, our Chi Fa Sect must lend a hand!"

The Azure Cloud Sect and Shi Hao had just caused several sects to lose face before everyone.

First, this was a perfect chance to vent their anger. Second, they could follow behind Heaven's Secret Pavilion and get a taste of the Great Emperor's inheritance. Third, they could sell the Shi Family a favor.

Killing three birds with one arrow!

With those sects taking the lead, some fence-sitters and profit-driven forces promptly joined in. For a time, their momentum was overwhelming.

Selling the Shi Family a favor—this deal could not be more worthwhile.

The experts of the participating forces rose into the sky one after another. Under the impact of their powerful auras, even the clouds on the horizon were scattered.

"Everyone, join forces and take them down!"

Spiritual energy surged around the platform.

A great battle was on the verge of erupting!

This was nothing like the disciples' matches during the Disciple Recruitment Assembly and the Exchange Conference. In their eyes, those had merely been children playing house.

Six True Person Realm experts and over twenty Spirit Transformation Realm experts!

At the outskirts.

"Senior Sister, let's go quickly. We might get caught up in this later."

The uninvolved forces and spectators had long since retreated, afraid of being dragged into it.

This was no joke.

Leng Bingning pondered briefly. "You leave first, Junior Sister."

Before her Junior Sister could speak, she turned and flew toward the center of the arena.

"Senior Sister! What are you doing?"

Just as everyone was about to make their move, a woman flew over.

Three thousand strands of black hair fluttered in the wind. Her white robes were whiter than snow, and as she descended from the heavens, she looked like a fairy.

"So beautiful!"

After Leng Bingning's avatar arrived, she swept her gaze over the scene coldly. "Our Jade Purity Palace will protect the people of the Azure Cloud Sect!"

The various forces were immediately stunned.

"Where did this Jade Purity Palace come from?"

"Where did this little girl come from? What shameless boasting!"

A bunch of frogs at the bottom of a well. Seeing that they did not recognize her sect, Leng Bingning said coldly, "Our Jade Purity Palace is a Transcendent Holy Land of the Central Domain. You had best think carefully before making your move."

At the same time, she released the pressure of her cultivation.

"Spirit Transformation Realm!"

"A Transcendent Holy Land!"

"Heavens! Such a young Spirit Transformation Realm expert!"

This woman had to be a genius from the Central Domain!

What the hell was this? The Shi Family had stepped in dog shit and somehow formed ties with a holy land of the Central Domain.

How had this tiny Azure Cloud Sect gotten involved with a major force from the Central Domain?

"A bunch of useless trash. It seems this old man must personally step in."

The Elder of Heaven's Secret Pavilion, who had originally been hiding in the shadows waiting to reap the fisherman's profit, could no longer sit still when he saw their hesitation.

"Hmph. They may fear your Jade Purity Palace, but this old man does not."

"Our Heaven's Secret Pavilion is likewise a holy land of the Central Domain. Follow this old man into battle, and my Heaven's Secret Pavilion will ensure you come to no harm."

The Elder of Heaven's Secret Pavilion likewise shot into the sky, revealing the cultivation of a peak True Person Realm expert.

Leng Bingning's delicate brows furrowed slightly. "A branch sect of Heaven's Secret Pavilion in the Eastern Domain?"

"It seems I'll have to use my trump card."

Just then, a resounding voice rang out.

"You all seem to be in high spirits!"

"As it happens, this sect is bored today. I'll play with you properly."

Feng Qingyang and the other three then strolled unhurriedly toward the center of the arena.

"Master!"

When Shi Hao saw Feng Qingyang and the others arrive, it was as though he had found his pillar of support.

With such a powerful sect behind me, what do I have to fear?

"Master, I've caused trouble for the sect."

This matter had all started because of him. If not for him, the Shi Family would not have brought Shi Tian here to show off before an expert.

"No matter. It is a trivial matter."

"Thank you for your kind intentions, Miss. Feng appreciates them," Feng Qingyang said to Leng Bingning beside him after waving to Shi Hao.

Although he did not know why this woman from the Central Domain was helping their Azure Cloud Sect.

She had stepped forward at a critical moment, so the proper courtesies still had to be observed.

Adding flowers to brocade was far inferior to offering charcoal in the snow, though he had no need for it.

Seeing how calm and unruffled the young man leading them was, the various forces could not make heads or tails of what medicine he was selling from his gourd.

"Could the Azure Cloud Sect have some other trump card?"

This was what Leng Bingning and the various forces were thinking.

"Hmph, putting on an act!"

After saying that, the Elder of Heaven's Secret Pavilion was the first to launch an attack.

Ye Bai and Wang Jian beside Feng Qingyang likewise soared into the sky.

Leng Bingning also temporarily gave up on using her trump card. She wanted to see what other moves this young man, whom she had met only once before, still had up his sleeve.

But should anything go wrong, her trump card would be able to kill those people at once.

"Those who offend my Azure Cloud Sect shall be killed without mercy!"

Ye Bai erupted with the cultivation of a peak Shattering Void Realm expert.

Violent spiritual energy swept across heaven and earth, while massive cultivation fluctuations spread in all directions.

"Shat... Shat... Shattering Void Realm mighty expert!"

Ye Bai mobilized his spiritual energy and casually slapped downward.

A gigantic palm appeared in the sky. The hand that covered heaven and blotted out the sun crashed down upon the various forces.

The surrounding space sizzled continuously; it was the sound of spiritual energy grinding against space.

At the instant the giant palm struck down, the surrounding space shattered. It was truly as though heaven and earth had collapsed!

"No! Spare my life! I'm a sect master!"

After the screams, all was silent.

There was nothing more to it—simple and brutal cultivation suppression.

"Hm? There is actually a little mouse that slipped through the net."

"You can't kill me! I'm an elder of Heaven's Secret Pavilion!"

The one speaking was the Elder of Heaven's Secret Pavilion, who had luckily escaped disaster.

However, he was now in a wretched state, severely injured.

The moment Ye Bai revealed his cultivation, he had sensed that something was wrong and retreated behind the others. Then, relying on a life-saving trump card, he had managed to preserve his life.

Even now, he could not understand why the tiny Azure Cloud Sect possessed such a powerful expert. Even if they had obtained a Great Emperor's inheritance, this should not have happened!

"You've finished your last words, right?"

Without even blinking, Ye Bai stomped down, crushing the Elder of Heaven's Secret Pavilion, who still wanted to speak, into pulp.

The battlefield was a complete mess, leaving behind only a palm print eight zhang deep.

Feng Qingyang walked to the edge of the arena and looked down.

"I will not make things difficult for you."

"I'll give you three days. Have each of your sects personally come to the Azure Cloud Sect to apologize and make amends, and this matter will be considered settled."

"Otherwise, not even chickens and dogs will be left alive!"

Feng Qingyang's words made the remaining members of the various sects tremble in fear.
