Chapter 3503: Questioning the Sect Master
“Among the six matches, our Sword Sect of Violet Heavens has already won three. Lang Qi, according to our previous agreement, shouldn’t your Sword Sect of Startling Thunder provide us with a century of time?’ elder Nong Fugui said sternly in the air. He stared straight at Lang Qi as if he was afraid he would go back on his word.
“Of course. I’m a man of my word. When I go back, I’ll make a case for you before the ancestor,” Lang Qi said with an ugly expression. Then he turned towards Jian Chen in the ring and said coldly, “Junior, I’ve remembered what you’ve done today. You’ll regret it very soon. The two disciples of our Sword Sect of Startling Thunder won’t have perished here for nothing.”
Actually, Lang Qi was unaware that all three disciples of the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder had died by Jian Chen’s hand. The first disciple seemed like he had been killed by Jin Sang, but Jin Sang had used a strand of power of the Way of the Sword from Jian Chen.
Jian Chen did not take Lang Qi’s threat to heart at all. He directed the supreme quality Immortal Tier sword in his hand towards the sky, right towards the people from the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder. He said coldly, “I’d like to continue challenging the disciples of the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder as a disciple of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. Are the disciples of the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder bold enough to face me in battle?”
Lang Qi was about to turn around, but he immediately halted. He slowly turned back and stared at Jian Chen. His gaze grew colder and colder.
There was an uproar in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens as well since no one had expected Jian Chen to continue challenging the disciples of the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder.
After all, in their eyes, Jian Chen was not in a great state. Not only was he pale, but he even swayed slightly as if he could lose his footing and collapse at any moment.
Everyone could tell with a single glance that Jian Chen had exhausted himself to use the two God Tier Immortal Techniques consecutively. He had even paid a colossal price.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt “It’s just like what I was saying. How could it take absolutely no toll on him at all to use God Tier Immortal Techniques instantly as a Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal? Senior brother Jian Chen clearly can’t last much longer.”
“Senior brother Jian Chen, you have to stay calm. You’re no longer in a state suitable for battle.”
“Don’t worry. Senior brother Jian Chen has a great background. There’s an extremely powerful master behind him. The Sword Sect of Startling Thunder doesn’t have the courage to do anything to him.”
......
…
The disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens gathered on the main peak began to worry for Jian Chen.
“Do not be rude, Jian Chen. How can you proactively challenge the disciples of the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder? Since you’ve already joined the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, everything you do must be done with the sect in consideration. We can’t afford to offend the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder,” sect master Chen Shuzhi called out in the sky.
When he heard that, fury immediately rose up inside Jian Chen. He turned towards Chen Shuzhi. “Sect master, the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder has already forced the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens to the point where they want us to abandon where we stand. They’ve already oppressed the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens to such a degree, yet we still can’t offend them?”
“Besides, I’ve already claimed the life of two disciples from the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder. Is that not called offending? Is this not a grievance?”
“And the three disciples they sent out to fight. Each and every one of them had god artifacts and God Tier pills, yet they wanted matches in the ring against the disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. This is obviously oppressing the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. They even want to use that opportunity to eliminate a few of our core disciples. Their Sword Sect of Startling Thunder has already gone so far. Are we supposed to continue putting up with them?”
“Sect master, don’t tell me only the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder is allowed to oppress us in your eyes and the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens is never allowed to fight back?”
“If that really is the case, wouldn’t the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens just be a puny sect incapable of any resistance?”
Jian Chen met Chen Shuzhi’s eyes and questioned him firmly.
“How dare you!” Chen Shuzhi’s face sank. He glanced at Jian Chen sharply and growled, “Jian Chen, am I even a sect master to you? Even if you’ve contributed greatly to the sect, that’s no reason for you to grow complacent and act as you wish, much less raise a racket before me. As for the matters of the sect, if I handled them all as recklessly as you did, the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens would have perished a long time ago.”
“Perish? They’re bold enough to destroy the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens?” Jian Chen’s eyes shone brightly. “If they were bold enough to destroy the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, they would have done so a long time ago. Why would the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens still exist? The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens had been so glorious in the past, yet now, we bow and scrape to drag out a miserable existence. Compared to surviving with our heads lowered, we’re better off standing up straight and advancing valiantly, facing our opponents in an indomitable battle. Even if we die, we have to preserve our dignity as disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. We have to preserve the glory of the sect.”
Chen Shuzhi’s face finally sank. After spending so many years as the sect master, this was the first time he had ever been questioned by a disciple in such a stern fashion, especially in the eye of the public.
Jian Chen disregarded Chen Shuzhi’s ugly expression. He continued, “The Sword Sect of Violet Heavens is different from other sects after all. Other medium or small sized organisations can bow and scrape, but the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens definitely can’t. Otherwise, as disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, how are we supposed to face our ancestors after death?”
When the disciples of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens heard Jian Chen’s spirited words, some of them immediately felt their blood boil. Their spines that were originally bent from the pressure slowly began to straighten out.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe disciples of the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder could not withstand Jian Chen’s provocation. One of them immediately requested permission from Lang Qi. “Great elder. I’ll go and defeat him. He’s already a spent force. It’s impossible for him to use a God Tier Immortal Technique a third time.”
After a moment of hesitation, Lang Qi nodded slowly. “Go. Ignite your essence blood and unleash your sharpest attacks. Don’t give him any time to catch his breath. Whether our Sword Sect of Startling Thunder can redeem our dignity is all down to you.”
“Please don’t worry, great elder. I will definitely use my full strength.” As he said that, the disciple directly entered the ring.
Very soon, the fourth match formally began. The disciple from the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder was not careless at all. He ignited his essence blood right from the beginning without hesitation, using his full strength.
However, the familiar might of the world descended gloriously. Although he already seemed like he was on the verge of collapse in everyone’s eyes, Jian Chen actually used a God Tier Immortal Technique instantly again, killing the fourth disciple from the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder in a single attack with devastating might.
Immediately, the surroundings erupted in an uproar again. All of the disciples from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens were stunned.
Despite his ugly expression, Chen Shuzhi looked at Jian Chen with a hint of seriousness. He had instantly killed three Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals consecutively and instantly. Even he was not capable of that.
Now, only two of the six Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals that the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder had brought remained.
Jian Chen was sheet-white in the ring as his body swayed uncontrollably. He was forced to plant the supreme grade immortal artifact sword into the ring to support himself.
“Next!” Jian Chen looked at the two remaining disciples of the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder. Even though his voice was extremely feeble, it was filled with provocation. “Which one is it? If you’re really afraid, why don’t you face me together?”
“Both of you, go together. Deal with him using the Formation of Roaring Thunder and Fierce Flames.” Lang Qi’s face was frosty as he ordered the two remaining disciples.
“Great elder, do we really have to face him together? Even if we win that way, it won’t be fair,” one of the disciples from the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder asked carefully. There was already fear in his eyes.
The six of them were all prodigies of the sect. Their strengths were approximately the same, yet Jian Chen had directly killed three of them instantly. Even though he seemed like he could collapse at any moment now, having run out of strength, he still cast a very great shadow over the hearts of the last two disciples from the Sword Sect of Startling Thunder.
