Yi Xuan's Three Demands
The resistance that Yi Xuan had imagined did not materialize.
Or rather, after seeing their own patriarch so easily killed, everyone in the Mystic Snow Pavilion, from the sect leader to the disciples, gave up resisting.
What's the point of resistance when faced with an existence capable of annihilating Mahayana Perfection being?
It will only increase casualties!
Life can be so dramatic sometimes.
Just an hour ago, they were diners sitting at the table, waiting to enjoy the delicious piece of meat that Azure Cloud Sect.
In the blink of an eye, their roles were reversed. The original diner was now pinned to the cutting board, while the piece of fatty meat suddenly revealed its gaping maw.
Under the control of No. 01, the mechanical army quickly subdued the entire group from the Mystic Snow Pavilion.
At the same time, the Firmament, carrying Yi Xuan and Shi Zhenghao, finally flew in from afar and landed on the plaza atop the Azure Cloud Sect mountain.
Yi Xuan, who had stepped out of the Firmament, waved to the sky, and a Black Tortoise slowly descended.
The hatch opened, and Cui Yan, who was sitting inside, jumped out instantly, grabbed Yi Xuan's shoulder, and kept looking at this Sect Protector.
It turned out that, as soon as the battle broke out, in order to protect Cui Yan's safety, Yi Xuan immediately ordered a Black Tortoise to rush into the crowd, suck Cui Yan into the cockpit, and leave quickly.
Therefore, Cui Yan was able to appear here unharmed.
Immediately afterwards, the three Supreme Elders arrived with a group of high-ranking members of the Azure Cloud Sect.
Xiao Anhe looked at Yi Xuan, his heart filled with mixed emotions. He never imagined that this disciple, whom he was most worried about, would one day grow to such a height.
Among the crowd, many sect elders lowered their heads in shame and remained silent.
These people were almost all those who had verbally attacked Yi Xuan when he was identified as Rootless Person.
Even Yi Xuan's position as the sect leader was ruthlessly taken away by them. What's worse, they even wanted Xiao Anhe to sever his master-disciple relationship with Yi Xuan and even be expelled from the Azure Cloud Sect.
Yi Xuan stood in the crowd without speaking, instead observing the expressions of the people surrounding him.
There was relief, gratitude, surprise, and a sense of relief.
This is nothing more than the myriad aspects of life.
Just as Yi Xuan was at a loss, Cui Yan came up to Yi Xuan and bowed deeply!
"Azure Cloud Sect Leader Cui Yan pays his respects to Sect Protector Yi Xuan! Your protection of the sect deserves eternal reverence!"
As soon as Cui Yan finished speaking...
Suddenly, everyone in the square, and even all the disciples of the sect, knelt down. Even the sect elders did not stop, and the three Supreme Elders bowed to Yi Xuan.
"Thank you, Protector! You have protected our sect and deserve our eternal respect!"
At this moment, the voice of the Azure Cloud Sect resounded throughout the Southern Frontier.
Meanwhile, the sects that had left began to receive messages from the Azure Cloud Sect one after another.
After learning the news, the sect leader of the Qianyuan Sect remained silent for a long time. Finally, he sighed and muttered to himself, "Alas, Supreme Elder Chu, you can rest assured now, but with the emergence of a new top-tier power, how should my Qianyuan Sect conduct itself?"
Mystic Snow Pavilion naturally received the same information as well.
The two remaining Mahayana Realm Supreme Elders were terrified upon learning that Grand Elder Sun had been killed and the sect leader had been captured.
They didn't believe that a sect capable of killing Mahayana Realm cultivator would simply execute the attackers after being attacked, without seeking revenge!
Just as they expected, three days later Yi Xuan brought Cui Yan and Xiao Anhe to the foot of the Mystic Snow Pavilion.
At this moment, Mystic Snow Pavilion had already activated its mountain-guarding formation, and a tense atmosphere permeated the entire sect.
Although the two elders did not announce what happened at the Azure Cloud Sect within the sect, the news had already spread Southern Frontier, so how could their disciples not know?
Therefore, the entire Mystic Snow Pavilion was filled with panic.
However, contrary to expectations of a massive army pressing in, the puppet army that had spread throughout the Southern Frontier did not appear.
Instead, the sect leader of the Mystic Snow Pavilion led the remaining disciples back to the sect before Yi Xuan and the other two.
Looking at their sect leader, who was completely unharmed, the two elders were both incredulous. "They just let you come back like that?"
The sect leader's face revealed a smile that was more like a grimace.
"Yes! But I'd rather they killed me!"
"What's the meaning?"
"They're demanding we pay the Azure Cloud Sect 50,000 Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone!"
"Fifty thousand? How is that possible? Even if the entire sect used all its resources, it couldn't raise that many Spirit Stones!"
"They said it could be paid off over a hundred years! But that would cost 75,000 Spirit Stone including interest!"
With the rise of the Azure Cloud Sect, the events that had occurred there naturally spread Southern Frontier Azure Cloud Sect.
The two elders also learned about the conditions that Grand Elder Sun had proposed to the Azure Cloud Sect.
They're just giving him a taste of his own medicine.
Although Yi Xuan's request was somewhat demanding, the other party was, after all, a long-established first-class power, and with some effort, 50,000 Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone was not impossible to achieve.
The two elders exchanged a glance and then nodded with difficulty, saying, "Very well, in the end, the other side is stronger and we are weaker. Compared to Grand Elder Sun's demands, they have already shown mercy!"
However, the Mystic Snow Pavilion Sect Master shook his head and said, "This is only the first request. The Azure Cloud Sect also requires us to make a copy of all the sect's secret manuals and send it to the Azure Cloud Sect!"
After hearing this, the two elders, though still looking troubled, considered it for a moment and finally nodded in relief.
Compared to destroying a sect and wiping out an entire family, their demands are indeed not excessive.
At the very least, it won't have any impact on the foundation of the Mystic Snow Pavilion!
Is there anything else?
One of the elders was speaking with a trembling voice, after all, Yi Xuan's request was much lighter than what Grand Elder Sun had made to the Azure Cloud Sect.
However, if the entire Mystic Snow Pavilion were to be completed, its overall strength would be greatly diminished.
Furthermore, with the loss of a Mahayana Realm Perfection expert, Mystic Snow Pavilion will become the bottom of the first-class forces.
Under the watchful eyes of the two elders, the sect leader of the Mystic Snow Pavilion finally raised Yi Xuan's last request. "All the mortal kingdoms under your jurisdiction shall be handed over to the Azure Cloud Sect! All the Spirit Stone mines shall be handed over to the Azure Cloud Sect!..."
Before he could finish speaking, the two elders' hair and beards bristled, their faces filled with rage.
"You dare, you brat! If I give it all to your Azure Cloud Sect, how will my Mystic Snow Pavilion survive?"
"Hmph! You really think you can run rampant in the Southern Frontier just because you can kill a Mahayana Realm cultivator? Dream on!"
Yi Xuan also saw the state of the two through the miniature robot on the Mystic Snow Pavilion Master's body.
At the same time, Yi Xuan's voice rang out among them. "Oh? It seems my suggestion didn't go through? Well then, don't regret it!"
As Yi Xuan's voice faded, hundreds of beams of light fell from the sky simultaneously.
The Mystic Snow Pavilion's mountain-guarding formation dissipated completely before even lasting a second under Yi Xuan's laser-based space weapon attack.
Seeing the enemy's sect completely exposed, Yi Xuan's voice rang out in the sky. "How is it now?"
