Boom!
Crack!
The fla in Yu Lie's hand shattered instantly, but his expression remained unchanged, his gaze towards Chu Ming filled with a hint of mockery.
"Still have tricks up your sleeve?"
Chu Ming thought to himself. Just as this thought arose, a terrifying wave of fire formations suddenly ford within a thousand ters around him. The flas were imposing, instantly trapping Chu Ming within.
"Hahaha, and you're still an elder of the sect? Don't you know the headquarters has the Nine Fire Flying Dragon Array?"
Seeing Chu Ming trapped, Yu Lie couldn't help but laugh heartily. Even Situ Lei and the Second Elder, whose ntal states had been sowhat shaken, were now resolutely fixed again, their gazes towards Chu Ming full of ridicule.
Chu Ming's expression remained calm. The Nine Fire Flying Dragon Array was a high-tier fifth-level array. If used properly, it could severely injure powerful figures like Yu Lie.
However, he had many hidden cards and wouldn't easily be restrained by this Nine Fire Flying Dragon Array.
"Seems like I'll have to reveal so of my cards."
Chu Ming sighed inwardly. With the power of the Black Wood Palm alone, it was insufficient to break through this Nine Fire Flying Dragon Array.
Boom!
Chu Ming's dantian pulsed slightly, and the space collapsed. Then, a blood-colored figure erged from the void, its towering figure filled with an endless intent of slaughter.
"Six-Ard Asura, arise!"
Boom!
With three heads and six arms, the Six-Ard Asura stared coldly at the Nine Fire Flying Dragon Array, its eyes icy.
"What kind of monster is this?!"
Yu Lie's face was filled with shock and disbelief. The mont the Six-Ard Asura appeared, he felt an oppressive aura envelop him.
At the sa ti, he felt a hint of unease in his heart.
Situ Lei and the Second Elder were already dumbfounded. Today's events had completely overturned their understanding of Ku Teng.
"Never ss with Ku Teng again!"
Situ Lei deeply regretted it now. Regardless of whether Ku Teng lived or died, he was not soone they could afford to provoke. If he had just spoken up for Ku Teng earlier, perhaps their relationship wouldn't be so strained now.
Boom!
As soon as the Nine Fire Flying Dragon Array was ford, the vast Fire Elental Power in the sky crazily poured into it, transforming into nine fire dragons that charged fiercely at Chu Ming and the Six-Ard Asura. Each fire dragon alone was slightly weaker than Yu Lie, but together, they were stronger than Yu Lie.
Boom!
The Six-Ard Asura's three heads were cold and indifferent, with a faint bloodlust in its eyes. Its six arms swung simultaneously with formidable force, directly sweeping towards the six fire dragons on the left.
Slash! Slash!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Countless explosions sounded. The scorching flas landed on the Six-Ard Asura's arms, but they were re tiny sparks, causing no harm. Yet, the terrifying impact of the fire dragons clashing with the Six-Ard Asura's arms caused them to dissolve into pure Fire Elental Power, dissipating into the heavens and earth.
"How is this possible?!"
Watching the six fire dragons, slightly weaker than himself, being swept away by the blood-colored monster, Yu Lie's eyes were filled with horror. Even the Sect Leader wasn't this powerful!
Rip!
As Yu Lie was in shock, the entire Nine Fire Flying Dragon Array was torn apart, its flas of destruction dissipating into the world.
"The Nine Fire Flying Dragon Array was broken so easily?"
Yu Lie's eyes were full of disbelief. Since its establishnt, the Nine Fire Flying Dragon Array had repelled countless powerful enemies, so even as strong as him. Now it was broken so effortlessly that he even doubted if the array had malfunctioned.
Boom!
Without stopping, the Six-Ard Asura transford into a streak of blood light and charged at Yu Lie, leaving a trail of phantoms in the air. Its terrifying speed made it impossible for Yu Lie to react.
"Pfft..."
Yu Lie only felt a pain in his chest as a blood-colored figure appeared before him, forcing him to retreat rapidly while spitting out several mouthfuls of blood, mixed with fragnts of his organs.
Boom!
Yu Lie's body crashed into a pavilion, struggling for a long ti without being able to stand up.
Swoosh!
Chu Ming's figure paused in front of Yu Lie, making his face suddenly pale.
Tap, tap, tap...
The Six-Ard Asura stood silently behind Chu Ming like the most loyal guard.
"What do you want?"
Yu Lie, having been in a high position for years, couldn't bring himself to beg Chu Ming for rcy. He still had his dignity.
"I want to be the Vice Sect Leader!"
The hoarse voice sounded like mockery. When they first heard these words, Yu Lie and the others had dismissed it. Now, it resounded like a bell, each word striking deep in their hearts.
"You're the Vice Sect Leader now."
Yu Lie wiped the blood from his mouth and said, trembling.
"Alright."
Chu Ming nodded gently. Just as he was about to turn and leave, he suddenly flipped his right hand into a palm and struck at Yu Lie.
"Pfft..."
Without any finesse, Yu Lie spat out another mouthful of blood. Already severely injured, he had not expected Chu Ming to attack suddenly.
"You..."
Yu Lie's face turned ashen, a spark of anger flashing in his eyes, seemingly about to retaliate. However, seeing Chu Ming's icy gaze, a chilling fear surged within him.
He believed that if he attacked again, Chu Ming would definitely kill him.
Chu Ming's face remained expressionless, his gaze sweeping over to Situ Lei. Situ Lei's body trembled, showing a smile more painful than crying. Yu Lie might be restrained by sect rules and would not kill him, but he could see that Ku Teng was a decisive killer. Provoking him would likely cost him his life.
"From now on, the position of Grand Elder will be held by the Second Elder!"
Chu Ming said calmly. The mont his words fell, the Second Elder's face lit up with joy. Since Chu Ming allowed him to be the Grand Elder, it ant he no longer blad him. Situ Lei, however, would likely not fare well going forward.
Watching Chu Ming's gradually distant figure, Situ Lei felt as if struck by lightning, suddenly aging hundreds of years in an instant.
...
"Hoo, perhaps the matter of the Wood Profound Fruit will be resolved when I et the Sect Leader of the Wood Profound Sect!"
Returning to his secluded courtyard, Chu Ming exhaled deeply. He always felt that the Wood Profound Fruit and the Wood Profound Sect were intricately linked.
The next day, the news of Ku Teng becoming the Vice Sect Leader of the Wood Profound Sect spread throughout Lvbo City. The appointnt of a new Vice Sect Leader in the Wood Profound Sect was a significant event, causing widespread discussion in the city.
"Have you heard? The elder who fought with Vice Sect Leader Yu that day was none other than Elder Ku Teng. Such a spectacle, I've never seen anything like it in my life!"
In a tavern, the surrounding diners were in heated discussion, with many new Martial Artists straining their ears to listen.
"Sigh, Elder Ku Teng has skyrocketed this ti, becoming the Vice Sect Leader of the Wood Profound Sect, second only to the Sect Leader."
