Destroy it.

Two simple words, yet how arrogant they sounded.

The God-Slaying Hall’s branch master and two elders’ faces became extremely ugly.

Since the branch was established in Southwest Yang Province, when had anyone dared to openly bring people to attack!

The Demon Fiend Sect branch was the same—no one dared provoke them.

But now?

Hadn’t they still been razed to the ground!

Sect Master Jun was very domineering, but he might not dare to directly clash with third-rate evil sects right now. However, cleaning up these branch small fries was definitely doable!

“Jun Changxiao!”

Guo Degang said coldly, “Are you declaring war on the God-Slaying Hall!”

“You could say that.”

Jun Changxiao raised his hand, and the disciples behind him surged forward in a mass.

Guo Degang’s eyes flashed with killing intent, then he fully released his Martial King cultivation, carrying a heavy momentum as he descended onto the training ground.

However, just as he landed, Ye Xingchen appeared before him using the Cloud-Treading Steps, raised one hand, and said coldly, “Die.”

“Whoosh—”

The Seven Profound Radiant Light instantly condensed and shot out a light beam from his palm, carrying tremendous force as it mercilessly pierced through Guo Degang’s chest, creating a horrifying gaping wound.

Domineering.

Without emotion!

“You…”

Before his consciousness faded, Guo Degang’s eyes filled with terror.

When he had gone to Ironbone Mountain, he and Elder Guo had exchanged blows with Jun Changxiao. Now, facing this sect’s disciple, he was directly killed in one move!

“Elder Guo!” Elder Zhan roared in fury.

“Go to hell together with him.”

Ye Xingchen raised his hand, and scorching flames roared out, transforming into an explosive slashing light that cleaved down from above!

Boom!

Under everyone’s watchful eyes, Elder Zhan was directly split in half by the Crimson Heaven Flame Slash, and the hall behind him was also blasted with a huge gap by the flame slash.

Two Martial Kings, killed in two moves!

Ye Xingchen’s strength after breaking through to Martial King was simply explosive!

The God-Slaying Hall branch master, who had been blown away by the scorching heat wave, looked on in horror.

At this moment, all he could do was watch helplessly as his subordinate members were mercilessly slaughtered by the Eternal Sect disciples, then fall to the ground one by one.

“Art stems from explosion!”

Zhen Dejun stood outside the God-Slaying Hall branch base, spreading his arms with a twisted expression as he said, “Please enjoy to your heart’s content!”

“Boom!”

Thunder flashed and the earth shook!

Amid the billowing dust, Jun Changxiao led his disciples away.

Just as he had come in a hurry, he left in a hurry, taking away not a single cloud, only the enemy’s countless treasures.

“Sect Master.”

Li Luoqiu’s voice came to his ear, “I’ve found the Demon Fiend Sect’s spirit stone mine!”

The corner of Jun Changxiao’s mouth curved into a cold smile. He then changed direction and led a thousand disciples toward the location of the mine he had learned.

The spirit stone mine.

Consider it interest on the debt the Demon Fiend Sect owed.

…

This day.

The branch headquarters of two third-rate evil sects were razed to the ground. When the news spread, all of Southwest Yang Province was shaken!

“What?”

Upon receiving the intelligence, Yi Tianxing exclaimed in shock, “The Demon Fiend Sect and God-Slaying Hall branches were destroyed by the Eternal Sect?”

“That’s right!”

Elder Zhou’s mouth twitched as he said, “The branch strongholds were also razed to the ground!”

“This is too reckless!” Yi Tianxing frowned.

Elder Zhen said bitterly, “If this kid didn’t act recklessly, would he dare to go to Northeast Lu Province to smash the Extreme Cold Palace!”

“If this continues, I’m afraid he’ll provoke mass outrage!” Elder Zhou said worriedly.

Although the Northeast Lu Province matter had temporarily concluded, the other side definitely wouldn’t let it go. Now that he had provoked two more third-rate evil sects, Jun Changxiao was pushing himself to a dead end!

However.

They didn’t know that Sect Master Jun’s intention was—strike while the iron is hot, if we’re going to play, let’s play big!

“My heavens!”

“Two evil sect branches were destroyed by the Eternal Sect!”

“This is blatant provocation against the Demon Fiend Sect and God-Slaying Hall!”

“I have a premonition that before long, countless experts will descend upon Southwest Yang Province!”

“Damn, you need a premonition for that? They’ll definitely come!”

…

Boundless Ice Sea.

The Extreme Cold Palace master knelt in an ice valley, his eyes wooden as he said, “The Extreme Cold Palace was nearly destroyed by Jun Changxiao. Please, Grand Elder, emerge from seclusion to uphold justice!”

“Boom!”

The ice valley’s glacier exploded, and a white radiance shot out, landing before him.

It was an elderly man of advanced years with white hair all over his head. Around him condensed a chilling aura that made one’s hair stand on end. His voice was cold as he said, “This Seat must meet this arrogant junior!”

Swish!

White radiance pierced the sky, cold qi sweeping across thousands of miles, making all living beings shiver with cold!

“This aura…”

The Profound Spirit Sect master sensed it and exclaimed in shock, “Half-step Martial Saint!”

“It must be the Extreme Cold Palace’s Grand Elder. Carrying such furious intent, he’s probably going to Southwest Yang Province to settle accounts with the Eternal Sect!” The Upper Cold Sect master frowned.

These fourth-rate sects all had elders from the older generation, but they had all chosen to enter seclusion, wholeheartedly pursuing higher martial paths. Unless the sect faced a crisis, they rarely appeared in ordinary times.

The Extreme Cold Palace had suffered such a catastrophe and was nearly destroyed—if the Grand Elder in seclusion still sat by and watched, it would make no sense!

However.

The Eternal Sect’s disciple had the Ice Emperor’s token. Going to trouble the Eternal Sect probably wasn’t appropriate.

Lu Qianqian, who was cultivating in the Extreme Profound Ice Pool, sensed the violent cold intent spreading through the Boundless Ice Sea, and her willow-leaf brows immediately furrowed.

…

Demon Fiend Sect headquarters.

Sect Master Yin Shangye’s eyes were cold as he said, “How dare you destroy my sect’s branch in Southwest Yang Province—Jun Changxiao, your guts are truly considerable!”

“Report!”

Just then, a subordinate entered the great hall and said, “The mine in Southwest Yang Province has been seized by the Eternal Sect, and all thousand disciples were killed!”

Yin Shangye, who could still endure before, immediately exploded upon hearing this news!

“Third Elder, Fourth Elder!”

He said in a deep voice, “Go to Southwest Yang Province, go to the Eternal Sect!”

“Sect Master!”

An elder quickly cupped his fists and said, “The Eternal Sect is protected by the Authentication Hall and Heavenly Edict Academy. If we rashly send people there, I’m afraid it’s inappropriate!”

“Being bullied to our faces, if This Seat doesn’t retaliate with color, what qualifications do I have to lead the entire sect!” Yin Shangye said furiously.

If it were just the branch being destroyed, he could endure it, but the mine being seized meant tremendous losses. This anger absolutely couldn’t be swallowed—he had to make the Eternal Sect pay the price!

“Swish!”

“Swish!”

Two Martial Emperors from the Demon Fiend Sect headquarters transformed into streaks of light and sped away. Perhaps knowing what the Eternal Sect had done in Northeast Lu Province, the ones they sent were peak Martial Emperors!

A grand display!

At the same time, the God-Slaying Hall headquarters also dispatched experts.

Although their losses couldn’t compare to the Demon Fiend Sect’s, they still sent two peak Martial Emperors.

Of course.

The sect masters of both evil sects knew that if the Authentication Hall and Heavenly Edict Academy were determined to protect the Eternal Sect, they might not be able to destroy it, but they had to apply pressure.

Four peak Martial Emperors—that was the greatest pressure!

Really.

Tremendous pressure!

Upon receiving the news, Yi Tianxing and Situ Haoyun both wore worried expressions.

“Whoosh!”

Just then, a vast and heavy aura suddenly surged within the City Lord’s Manor, causing both of them to exclaim in shock, “City Lord Mu has emerged from seclusion!”

“This aura…”

Situ Haoyun said gravely, “He has already stepped into the Half-step Martial Saint level!”

Yi Tianxing said in disbelief, “Southwest Yang Province hasn’t seen a strong cultivator of this level in a very long time. City Lord Mu is truly a legend of the entire province!”

“Father!”

In the academy, Mu Honglian’s bright eyes filled with joy.

“Swish!”

A dignified middle-aged man with an imposing presence without anger stood in the sky, transmitting his voice, “While your father was in seclusion, has Southwest Yang Province remained peaceful!”

With Sect Master Jun around, peaceful my ass!
