Seeing You Off
Call--
A gentle breeze swept across the stage, ruffling a few strands of Hua Qiang's hair.
Then the wind gradually picked up and turned into a gale, with sand and stones flying everywhere, seemingly foreshadowing the arrival of a major storm.
Under the gloomy sky, Hua Qiang stood tall and straight, like a javelin, his gaze icy as he stared directly at the Tie Futu opposite him.
The Tie Futu continued firing recklessly, oblivious to their own mortality.
"Hua Qiang, if you dare to touch me again, my Lineage and the sect's Supreme Elder will not let you off!"
Their strength is beyond your imagination. If you're a smart person, you'll obediently admit defeat and spare my life!
The voice of the Tie Futu echoed in the wind, carrying an undisguised threat and arrogance.
Hua Qiang curled his lips into a disdainful smile and said coldly, "Tie Futu, don't think you can swagger in front of me just because you have Lineage."
"I, Hua Qiang, only care about right and wrong, nothing else."
"I will not attack unless attacked; if someone attacks me, I will kill them!"
"When you attacked me, you should have been prepared to die. Today will be your death day!"
The elders stood aside, watching this rather dramatic duel, then looked at each other with a variety of expressions on their faces.
One of the elders, who had close ties with the Tie Futu Lineage, frowned and said, "Hua Qiang, one should be lenient when possible. Although the Tie Futu has made mistakes, the powerful Pagoda Lineage behind him is very influential."
If you kill him, it will cause a huge uproar and be a disaster for the sect.
The other elders nodded in agreement and whispered their agreement.
For a time, calls for reconciliation arose one after another.
However, Sect Master Huo Cangliang did not speak, and those standing beside him also stood quietly without saying a word.
This is a life-or-death gamble, and a life-or-death contract has been signed. Once one steps onto the Life and Death Stage, one side will inevitably fall, and it will be a fight to the death!
Moreover, the Tie Futu's disrespectful behavior towards the elderly and their bullying of the younger generation already disgusted them.
Moreover, Tie Futu, relying on the powerful Lineage behind him and the support of the Supreme Elder Chen Yao, is arrogant and domineering in the sect. He has done many despicable things and plundered a lot of their interests, but they dare not speak out against him.
This is a malignant tumor, and it definitely needs to be treated and cured.
The emergence of Hua Qiang is a tremendous opportunity!
Seeing that an elder had spoken up for him, Tie Futu became even more arrogant. "Hua Qiang, did you hear that? The elders all told you to let me go."
If you back down now, I might forgive and forget; otherwise, you and your entire family will face utter destruction!
Hua Qiang's eyes narrowed, and he took a step forward, his aura surging instantly. "Tie Futu, do you think I'm afraid of your threats?"
From the moment I embarked on the path of cultivation, I, Hua Qiang, have never feared any powerful authority.
If your Lineage dares to retaliate, I will take it all on.
But on that day, you will surely die!
Tie Futu Pagoda's expression changed slightly. He sensed the intense killing intent emanating from Hua Qiang, and a sense of panic crept into his heart.
He originally thought that with his Lineage's prestige and the elders' pleas, Hua Qiang would have some reservations and wouldn't dare to kill him.
But at this moment, he saw a resolute look in Hua Qiang's eyes.
"Hua Qiang, don't be impulsive! If you kill me, the sect's rules will be broken, and internal strife will break out. You will be the sect's sinner!" Tie Futu tried to make a last-ditch effort.
Hua Qiang snorted coldly, "Sect rules? Have you ever followed the sect's rules?"
You bully the weak and harm your fellow disciples. If I don't kill you, it would be against all reason!
As for the future of the sect, I, Hua Qiang, will take full responsibility for my actions and will provide a satisfactory account for the Sect Master and everyone else.
At this moment, the entire training ground was silent, with only the howling of the wind.
All eyes were focused on Hua Qiang and the Tie Futu, awaiting that final moment of life and death.
Hua Qiang slowly raised his hand, and the words "life" and "death" seemed to appear alternately on his palm.
Cold sweat beaded on Tie Futu's forehead, his legs began to tremble slightly, and the arrogance in his eyes had vanished, replaced by endless fear.
"Hua Qiang, do you really want to kill me?" Tie Futu's hoarse, desperate voice rang out again.
"Indeed!"
The Tie Futu looked at its Sect Master, Huo Cangliang Huo Cangliang, who remained in a daze, like an old monk.
The elders standing around him all looked away, as if some beautiful scenery somewhere had caught their attention.
Turning his head to look in another direction, he saw that the people who had spoken up for him were now avoiding his gaze, not daring to look him in the eye.
Ha ha ha ha!
Tie Futu burst into laughter as if he had lost his mind, then turned his head to look in a certain direction and shouted loudly, "Supreme Elder, save me!"
Hua Qiang's lips curled up slightly, a smile flashing across his face. The reason why he hadn't taken his life yet was to see what kind of wonderful performance the Supreme Elder behind him would put on.
Didn't they say that the Supreme Elder would cause me trouble and wouldn't let me go?
Then let the trouble come even faster!
At the summit of that towering, cloud-piercing, precipitous mountain, a biting wind howls year-round, and thick snow, like stubborn armor, completely envelops the entire mountain.
On one side of the mountain peak, there is a cold and secluded cave, with jagged Ice Prisms crystals inside, resembling a natural ice crystal maze.
Chen Yao, a woman dressed in a long, white dress as pure as frost and snow, sat quietly on a huge ice crystal, cultivating like Elves in Ice Grotto.
At this moment, her body seemed to transform into the center of a Bing Xue vortex, with a tangible, icy aura swirling around her, and wisps of white air gradually transforming into the shapes of two agile white phoenixes.
They gracefully stretched their bodies, fluttering up and down beside Chen Yao, looking as if they were devoutly worshipping the queen.
The cold cave was extremely quiet, with only Chen Yao's steady breathing and the occasional soft cracking of the Ice Prisms.
Suddenly, gusts of wind surged up from the ground. These gusts, as if drawn by invisible threads, swirled merrily around the two phoenixes, spinning faster and faster, forming small columns of wind.
At the same time, the Spiritual Qi between heaven and earth seemed to be summoned by some powerful force, surging in from all directions and converging on Chen Yao like a raging tide.
The Spiritual Qi slithered into her crown chakra like a serpent, and Chen Yao's body trembled slightly before slowly expanding, like a balloon being continuously inflated. Her skin was stretched to the point of being almost transparent, as if she were about to burst open at any moment.
After a few breaths, the swelling gradually subsided, and the balloon slowly deflated. However, Chen Yao's aura was noticeably more powerful and vigorous than before, like a dormant beast about to awaken after absorbing the power of heaven and earth.
Just then, a sharp and desperate cry pierced through the layers of ice in the cold cave like an arrow, "Supreme Elder, save me!"
The sudden cry for help startled Chen Yao, who was immersed in a deep cultivation realm.
Her eyes snapped open, deep and cold, as if they held a thousand-year-old icy pool. A sharp, icy glint flashed across them like lightning.
"Who dares to touch my Tie Futu?"
Chen Yao's voice was low and cold, echoing within the Frost Cave. Each word was like an ice bullet, crashing against the surrounding ice walls and splashing up layers of frost.
