“Those are the Black Heaven Sect’s people! Why are they here? And why are there so many of them?”
“Oh God, they’re all sword cultivators.”
“One, two, three… Oh god, there are eighteen Fairy boats in total, and each boat has at least a hundred of them. By the looks of it, I can tell that they’re all part of the Black Heaven Sect’s most skilled combat disciples!”
“What are they going to do?”
“They’re in Jade Watersword Sect’s territory. Could they be trying to start a fight with them? Oh no, this is big news!”
Everyone who saw the Black Heaven Sect’s Fairy boats was shaken to the core as it flew past them overhead. Even those that stood the furthest away could feel the sword qi circulating in the air.
It was terrifying.
On the Fairy boat, one of the combat disciples ca up to Chu Kuangren and reported respectfully, “Elder Senior Brother, Jade Watersword Sect is right ahead of us.”
Chu Kuangren simply nodded. “Understood.”
A mont later, the Jade Watersword Sect ca into full view.
It was a breathtaking treasure land that was surrounded by mountains and rivers.
However, it was such a pity that this treasure land would soon be tainted with blood.
Within Jade Watersword Sect itself, nurous disciples too saw the montous Fairy boats and the sword cultivators who were surrounded by fierce sword qis.
“What is going on? Why is the Black Heaven Sect here? And why does it look like they want us dead?”
“It can’t be. The Jade Watersword Sect is one of the most prestigious honorable orthodoxies in the world. Do they intend to start a fight with us?”
“But why do this for no apparent reason?”
Most disciples were unaware of the ss that their Senior Elder had caused in Black Heaven Sect. Only the higher-ups had seen this coming and it was as expected. Their faces were extrely solemn.
“They’re finally here.”
“Whether the Jade Watersword Sect survives this is up to fate.”
Rumble…
At this mont, the space above Jade Watersword Sect suddenly distorted before a large barrier began to form, enclosing the Sect like a protective bowl from the sky.
“This is the Jade Watersword Sect’s biggest defense.”
The Seventh Forefather stated indifferently. Many orthodoxies had a similar chanism, but because it was often not easy to operate, it would only be triggered in tis of grave danger.
The Jade Watersword Sect was likely at the crossroads between life and death.
Upon triggering the chanism, a green figure flew into the sky. It was a beautiful woman — the Sect Master of Jade Watersword Sect.
“Dearest brothers from the Black Heaven Sect, you’ve co a long way. Pray tell, to what do I owe the pleasure of this visit?” With a faint smile, the Jade Watersword’s Sect Master asked rhetorically.
The corners of Chu Kuangren’s lips lifted as he stepped out.
The Sword-based Daoist Rhys surrounding Chu Kuangren intensified with every step he took. It crashed against the void like raging waves as it was directed at the Jade Watersword’s Sect Master.
Below, the disciples of the Jade Watersword Sect had noticed Chu Kuangren too
Although he was the enemy, they could not help but be attracted by Chu Kuangren’s ethereal and otherworldly presence.
“So this is Chu Kuangren… As expected, he’s no ordinary man.”
“I heard that he’s placed first in the Hundred Swords Spectrum, far surpassing an Honorable in terms of power. I never expected him to show up personally.”
“Nothing seems normal here.”
“Even the Gods in heaven would stand on the sa level as him.”
“Say, is it too late to surrender?”
In the crowd, Lu Yan had also seen Chu Kuangren.
A hint of shock flashed past her eyes as she glanced back at Linghu’s Young Emperor who was standing beside her. She thought that her man was more handso than Chu Kuangren.
She kept her thoughts to herself but still let out a soft scowl. “He’s just soone with good looks. My darling Linghu is so much better.”
At that, the weight in Linghu’s Young Emperor’s heart lifted a little. “Lu Yan’s right. A pretty shell of a human is inferior to .”
“Of course! My darling Linghu is the greatest!”
Had the Jade Watersword’s Sect Master heard their conversation, they would have gotten a scolding. That was because out of everyone else here, she could feel how terrifying Chu Kuangren was.
The horrifying Sword-based Daoist Rhy had locked onto her, and even as an Honorable Supre, she could feel her heart lurch.
Could a ‘pretty shell of a human’ have such overwhelming Daoist Rhys?
Bullsh*t!
“Word said that Chu Kuangren’s cultivation realm isn’t high, but he’s capable of sparring with Sages! It’s absolutely terrifying.” Jade Watersword’s Sect Master then looked at the white-robed Chu Kuangren before her and beads of cold sweat started to line on her forehead.
Chu Kuangren looked at Jade Watersword’s Sect Master indifferently. “I’m sure you’re well aware of the reason as to why we’re here. You have two options now. one, surrender to the Black Heaven Sect as our vassals and present us with offerings annually.”
“And two, submit and descend into hell!”
Upon hearing option two, the Jade Watersword’s Sect Master’s face fell. “Aren’t you being rather heavy-handed now? What the Senior Elder did had nothing to do with the rest of us. It was all him alone.”
She fished out a letter as she continued, “Look, this is the letter he left behind. It clearly states here that he has cut his ties with Jade Watersword Sect, so everything he did has nothing to do with us!”
Chu Kuangren spared no glance at the letter. “The man is dead. You can say what you want, but how would you prove that this isn’t fabricated? You could show a dozen letters, and it would prove nothing.”
“The Senior Elder’s Daoist Rhys are on the letter! We can’t fake that.”
“Hmph, it’s just a simple Daoist Rhy. What can it prove? If we take a step back and say that he really did write the letter, then why didn’t the Jade Watersword Sect imdiately announce it?!”
“Only after he had caused a ss in the Black Heaven Sect and dropped dead do you take out this letter to wipe your slate clean? Did you think it is that convenient? Besides, if you are truly innocent, why did you activate your defense chanism when you saw us?” Chu Kuangren said rcilessly.
The Jade Watersword’s Sect Master’s face turned as white as a ghost.
F*ck.
‘How could we not activate it when you marched in with blaring signs and glaring bloodlust? What if you charged in and attacked us?’
Of course, the Jade Watersword’s Sect Master knew that those words were useless.
No matter what they said and no matter what evidence they brought out, Jade Watersword Sect only had two choices left.
Surrender and bow down to them, or perish.
“Haha! The rumors can never compare to eting you in person. Chu Kuangren, you certainly live up to your na.” At that mont, a hearty laugh rang out.
Linghu’s Young Emperor had risen to the skies and exited the barrier to approach Chu Kuangren.
However, he was so shocked that his complexion suddenly changed, and he looked at Chu Kuangren with a face full of fear.
Only once he had left the barrier did he feel the terrifying Sword-based Daoist Rhy coming off Chu Kuangren. It made his heart tremble.
“The Jade Watersword Sect is under the Linghu family’s protection!” Linghu’s Young Emperor followed suit and channeled his Daoist Rhys as he said with a cold voice.
Chu Kuangren glanced at him. “So, you’re representing the Linghu family?”
“I am the Linghu family’s Young Emperor, Linghu Teng! I’m more than qualified to represent the Linghu family,” Linghu Teng said arrogantly.
“Oh, so you’re a Young Emperor.”
Chu Kuangren had a mont of realization before he raised a palm and let out an attack. The violent palm strength imdiately forced Linghu Teng backward by a hundred feet.
“Not even your family’s Sage could help the Jade Watersword Sect. What makes you think a re Young Emperor like you could do more?” Chu Kuangren said coldly.
“Chu Kuangren! How dare you strike ?!” Linghu Teng’s gaze turned ice-cold as a sword materialized in his hand. He then lifted it and cast a strike.
A sharp Daoist Rhy burst forth, and thousands of sword qis rged to form a tornado that headed straight for Chu Kuangren.
