Ancient Sacred Peak enjoyed an excellent reputation across the Central Plains. Especially with the Martial Resonance Stones, many people had the chance to become disciples of Ancient Sacred Peak, and it rarely forced anyone to do anything.
In the eyes of the world, it was a truly upright and prestigious sect.
So the black-clad youth should not have needed to fear that Ancient Sacred Peak would forcibly keep him, should he?
Tie Binghun stood there in a daze for quite a while, his expression shifting wildly.
"Alas..."
Suddenly, he let out a long sigh. "I'm afraid the black-clad youth already knows of Pei Yuzheng's existence. He doesn't want to provoke the enormous trouble that is Thousand Kings Holy Tower."
That explanation immediately silenced the elder beside him.
Compared to Ancient Sacred Peak, Thousand Kings Holy Tower inspired fear in far more people. Ordinary people simply did not wish to offend it.
Though the latter also called itself an upright and prestigious sect, anyone who knew it understood just how overbearing Thousand Kings Holy Tower was.
With Pei Yuzheng having struck the Martial Resonance Stone seven times, the black-clad youth had struck it twelve times in one go. That was a living, breathing slap across the other party's face—and it had ruined Thousand Kings Holy Tower's grand scheme besides...
Thus, it was understandable that the black-clad youth had fled after learning of the matter.
But for Ancient Sacred Peak, it was an utterly passive position. They had finally found a chance to strike back at Pei Yuzheng, only for it to slip away for nothing.
"How is the Nine-Star Battle Diagram?" After a long silence, Tie Binghun asked worriedly.
The elder beside him replied, "Pei Yuzheng is unexpectedly a battle-strategy genius as well. He has already cracked the eighth Starry Diagram."
