The moment the words "Mystic Heaven Sect" were spoken, they seemed to carry some inexplicable magic, making even Saint Cangwen unconsciously stay his hand.
He was wary of the Mystic Heaven Sect.
Even more so of Chu Kuangren, who was rumored to have slain two Saints!
Rumor has it that, for the sake of a crippled disciple, Chu Kuangren wreaked havoc in the Murong Family, destroyed their Clan Mausoleum, and slew two Saints and a Young Emperor. That fellow is a madman.
There's no need to provoke a madman like that.
Saint Cangwen thought to himself.
But stopping now would make it seem as though he feared Chu Kuangren.
With that thought, he flicked a finger. A blast of force struck Gu Jiang, sending him flying into the mountainside.
Pfft...
Gu Jiang spat out a great mouthful of blood, his face deathly pale. His chest caved in, an unknown number of bones broken, and even his meridians were severely damaged.
He could not withstand even the flick of a Saint's finger.
Before a Saint, a Venerable was like an ant.
"I'll spare your life out of consideration for the Mystic Heaven Sect. But though you're spared death, you cannot escape punishment. Consider this blow a minor chastisement."
Saint Cangwen spoke indifferently.
Gu Jiang was practically cursing his mother inwardly.
A minor chastisement?
That blow had cost him half his life.
And all he had done was say a word on Saint Qingshuang's behalf. To avoid offending a Saint, he had even addressed his words to Grandmaster Li.
Damn.
He had long heard of the Overlord Body Sacred Clan's overbearing ways.
But he had never imagined they would go this far.
"Enough, Saint Qingshuang. Stop wasting my time and hand over the Alchemy Grandmaster's legacy."
Saint Cangwen spoke indifferently.
Buzzz...
Just
