The atmosphere within the Taixuan Holy Sect instantly froze to the extreme. The expressions of the experts who came to reinforce turned extremely ugly, because they were being threatened by Jun Changxiao—if they dared to interfere with the Taixuan Holy Sect, it meant becoming his enemy, and moreover fighting to the death!
The most devastated was none other than City Lord Han.
At this moment, he roared inwardly: “I shouldn’t have appeared here! Can time flow backward? I choose to continue bathing at home!”
If it were someone else with the same strength as Jun Changxiao standing before them making such threats, the experts would definitely be displeased. At worst, they’d fight him to the end on behalf of the whole world!
But this Eternal Sect Master had helped the Star Meteor Continent resolve its greatest crisis, turning what should have been a certain-death journey into a pleasant outing. Leaving aside his terrifyingly powerful strength, they couldn’t fight him just based on the debt of gratitude alone!
Jun Changxiao’s extremely protective nature might cause discomfort for some readers, but don’t forget he had saved the world many times, though most were unintentional.
Of course.
That’s not to say he could do whatever he wanted because of this.
Because without those previous good deeds, he could still… do whatever he wanted!
Simply put.
This guy could do things that saved others, and equally could do things that destroyed.
Good and evil.
He had his own judgment.
He just couldn’t tolerate anyone bullying his own disciples, especially Lu Qianqian!
As one reader in the chapter comments said, without this eldest disciple joining the sect at a critical moment, Gousheng couldn’t even have left the newbie village!
Today!
Dominated by fury, Jun Changxiao had only one thought.
Tear down the Taixuan Holy Sect’s great hall. Anyone who tried to stop him would all become enemies!
That moment.
Jun Changxiao hovered before the shattered mountain gate, facing the top-tier Taixuan Holy Sect, facing all the Star Meteor Continent experts, his entire body emanating an aura that looked down upon the world!
At the foot of the mountain, Young Master Yuan’s admiration for the Sect Master was like surging river waters, flowing endlessly!
To revive the former glory of the Demon Gate, he had planned for a long time and recently put it into action, but only by ambushing third- and fourth-rate sects, not daring to trouble top-tier sects!
Now Jun Changxiao disagreed with just a word and stood before the Taixuan Holy Sect’s mountain gate challenging the entire world. This level of boldness—he was far inferior!
Awesome!
Too awesome!
Joining the Eternal Sect was truly a wise (fragrant) choice!
Purple Scale Demon King was also gratified.
Though he always emphasized he joined the Eternal Sect to bide his time, he had agreed with Jun Changxiao to join forces for a great undertaking. Now confronting the continent’s experts—didn’t this suit his intentions perfectly!
Come on!
Let’s have a wild time!
Jun Changxiao’s Sword Martial aura was releasing madly, the cold intent flashing in his eyes growing more intense: “You all either leave now, or fight this seat to the death!”
“Sect Master Jun!”
City Lord Han said: “Are you truly only targeting the Taixuan Holy Sect?”
“Correct.”
Jun Changxiao looked toward the Taixuan Holy Sect great hall, his fury intensifying: “This sect expelled this seat’s eldest disciple and crippled her cultivation. Today, this seat must seek justice for her!”
“If that’s the case, then it’s a grudge between your sect and the Taixuan Holy Sect. Han naturally won’t get involved.” City Lord Han cupped his hands: “Many apologies for the intrusion. Farewell!”
“Whoosh——”
He instantly disappeared, making himself scarce!
His relationship with Jun Changxiao was good. From any angle, he wouldn’t make an enemy of him.
As for the reinforcement requested by the Altar… I damn well shouldn’t have heard it. I should have just continued bathing comfortably at home!
After the best divine assist teammate City Lord Han left, the experts torn between left and right hurriedly cupped their hands: “Sect grudges—we shouldn’t interfere. Farewell, farewell!”
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
Whoosh!
In an instant, the experts who had appeared at the Taixuan Holy Sect with great momentum left just as quickly as they’d arrived.
Are you kidding!
With the Eternal Sect Master’s strength that could crush all planes, making an enemy of him was like an old man hanging himself—tired of living!
Moreover, if the exhibitionist was indeed the Purple Scale Demon King, and he previously obeyed Jun Changxiao’s every word on the battlefield, how would he dare wantonly commit acts that harmed the common people?
In a very short time, all the experts who came to reinforce the Taixuan Holy Sect completely withdrew. Of course, they didn’t truly leave but stood in the distance as spectators.
“Alas, the Taixuan Holy Sect is truly unlucky to provoke the Eternal Sect!”
“The eldest disciple Sect Master Jun mentioned should be Lu Qianqian. Back then in Northeast Lu Province, the Extreme Cold Palace nearly had its entire gate destroyed because of her.”
“For a single disciple, not hesitating to be at odds with the world—Sect Master Jun is truly fierce!”
“Lu Qianqian is extraordinary in appearance and about the same age as Jun Changxiao. Perhaps they’re master and disciple on the surface but have an intimate relationship in private that’s unknown to others.”
The martial artists from all directions quietly discussed among themselves.
…
Taixuan Holy Sect.
The sect master and all high-ranking members’ expressions were extremely ugly.
The arrival of reinforcements had given them sufficient confidence to face Jun Changxiao head-on, but they turned tail and fled immediately. This was too damn ridiculous!
“Jun Changxiao!”
Lan Jingting hovered above the great hall, saying in a deep voice: “Lu Qianqian was expelled before she even joined the Eternal Sect. Why must you press so hard!”
From the recent battle, he realized he absolutely couldn’t defeat him, and moreover on their own territory, continuing to fight would be all harm and no benefit.
Jun Changxiao said coldly: “What unforgivable heinous crime did my eldest disciple commit that not only required your sect to expel her but also cripple her cultivation?”
“This…”
Lan Jingting was momentarily at a loss for words.
Regarding Lu Qianqian’s expulsion, he had learned of it later, and hadn’t expected the Elder Council’s punishment to include crippling her cultivation.
You must know, she was the disciple valued by that woman who had just passed away, her bones not yet cold. Even if she did something wrong, it shouldn’t warrant crippling her cultivation!
“It seems you were unaware.”
Jun Changxiao tilted his head, turning toward the Taixuan Holy Sect Master, his tone sinister: “You, as the sect master, should clearly know the reasons. This seat would very much like to hear them.”
“…”
The Taixuan Holy Sect Master also fell silent.
“Jun… Jun Changxiao…” Just then, Elder Qu who had been sent flying spoke with a pale face: “Crippling Lu Qianqian’s cultivation was this old woman’s decision. If you want revenge…”
“Bang!”
Jun Changxiao suddenly appeared before her, striking a pose as if he’d just completed a violent kick.
As for Elder Qu, she had now been kicked flying, then crashed into the mountain wall with a “boom.”
“Old hag.”
“So you were the one causing trouble.”
The power carried by that kick was quite terrifying. Elder Qu was embedded in the wall, her internal organs directly bursting. Even if she luckily saved her life, she would probably become a cripple in the future!
“…”
The distant experts’ lips twitched violently.
Kicking a Taixuan Holy Sect elder at the Martial Saint level half to death with one kick—this guy’s strength was truly explosively strong!
“Whoosh!”
Jun Changxiao raised his hand, using spiritual energy to grasp the unconscious Fang Lingyu: “This woman has a grudge with my eldest disciple. The crippling of her cultivation was probably also at her instigation.”
“Whoosh whoosh!”
Violent spiritual energy howled and spread!
At this moment, with just a slight thought, the genius the Taixuan Holy Sect had focused on cultivating would perish.
Elder Qu was violently kicked away, Fang Lingyu was grabbed and could die at any moment. The Taixuan Holy Sect Master and even Lan Jingting remained unmoved.
Because in the distant hills stood field artillery, the Eternal Sect’s Martial Emperors and Half-step Martial Saint high-ranking members stood behind Jun Changxiao, and below the mountain were several cavalry regiments and… hundreds of thousands of fierce beasts!
This kind of luxurious lineup was too damn bullying!
“Ah ah——”
Just then, Fang Lingyu, shrouded in spiritual energy, awakened from unconsciousness, her face contorting as she screamed miserably.
Jun Changxiao wanted to kill her.
But he absolutely wouldn’t let her die while unconscious.
Fang Lingyu was shrouded in terrifying pressure, her body and soul enduring all manner of torment. Discovering the sect master and high-ranking members were all present, she cried out in her painful screams: “Sect… Sect Master… save me…”
Jun Changxiao pulled her before him, saying coldly: “In heaven and earth, no one can save you.”
Fang Lingyu’s heart filled with the aura of death, terror appearing on her contorted face.
“Die.”
Jun Changxiao raised his hand, lifting her high into the sky.
“…”
Lan Jingting and the Taixuan Holy Sect Master clenched their fists!
Fang Lingyu was after all a genius the Taixuan Holy Sect had focused on cultivating. Having her killed by Jun Changxiao before everyone was no different from having their mountain gate torn down again!
“Sect Master.”
Suddenly, a cold voice came from the distance.
The experts from all directions looked over to see a beautiful woman in white robes appear out of thin air on a distant peak.
Lu Qianqian!
The party involved who triggered the conflict between the Eternal Sect and Taixuan Holy Sect!
“Why has First Senior Sister come?”
Li Qingyang, Xiao Zuiji, and others looked astonished.
When Li Luoqiu contacted everyone, she hadn’t contacted Lu Qianqian who was training in the Training Tower.
“Qianqian.”
Jun Changxiao held Fang Lingyu, his killing intent overwhelming: “Today, this seat will help you avenge being expelled and having your cultivation crippled by the Taixuan Holy Sect by tearing down their eternally standing great hall!”
“Thud!”
Lu Qianqian suddenly knelt down.
Though her exquisite face was covered in frost, she spoke in a pleading tone: “I no longer have any connection with the Taixuan Holy Sect. Please, Sect Master, don’t make things difficult for them.”
“First Senior Sister…”
Li Qingyang, Xiao Zuiji, and others’ eyes filled with disbelief.
Jun Changxiao was also stunned.
This woman who once thought he was too benevolent actually knelt down today to plead for the Taixuan Holy Sect that had bullied her!
Something’s wrong!
Had her brain been kicked by a donkey? Or caught in a door?
“Get up quickly.”
Jun Changxiao’s fury began to rapidly subside after Lu Qianqian knelt, saying with heartache: “The ground is cold.”
Lu Qianqian didn’t get up.
Because the aura the Sect Master emanated still showed no intention of sparing the Taixuan Holy Sect.
“Alas.”
Jun Changxiao shook his head: “I’m just too soft-hearted. I can’t stand seeing my disciples suffer.”
Saying this, he withdrew his Sword Martial Dual Saint pressure and put Fang Lingyu down.
“…”
Purple Scale Demon King also withdrew the demonic energy he had spread.
“Level One alert canceled!”
Zhong Yi shouted loudly. Members of each regiment put down their weapons.
The tense atmosphere that had shrouded the Taixuan Holy Sect instantly vanished without a trace.
“If not for eldest disciple’s plea, this seat would never spare your Taixuan Holy Sect!” Jun Changxiao glared furiously at the Taixuan Holy Sect Master and high-ranking members, waving his long robe: “Return to the sect!”
“Whoosh!”
Just then, Lu Qianqian flew down from the mountain peak.
She stood before the rapidly breathing Fang Lingyu, her voice cold: “Get up. Fight me to the death.”
“…”
Jun Changxiao’s lips twitched.
This woman wanted to do it herself!
