Chapter 768: Martial Art Circle Announcement

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

In the hall, an elder and a woman were kneeling on the ground. There was a stretcher on the ground and on it lay a person.

“Old ancestor, please give me justice. No matter what, Junsheng was still the steward of the Crimson Star Sect and managed the sect’s huge workload. Even if he has not performed meritorious deeds, he has worked hard. Now, he has actually been tortured without impunity to such a state. It is a slap in the face for our Crimson Star Sect in the face.”

The woman was not very old, around twenty-five or twenty-six years of age. She was beautiful and had an outstanding temperament. But right now, she was kneeling sorrowfully on the ground, her tears flowing non-stop.

She had a younger brother. They had grown up together and now he had been put in such a terrible state by someone. As his sister, how could her heart not ache?

Beside her was a stretcher. The person on it already could not be recognized from his appearance. His entire body was covered with ulcers and blisters. From time to time, he would let out hoarse cries of pain. If it wasn’t for the fact that the members of the Crimson Star Sect had seen Fan Junsheng become like this with their own eyes, none of them would have believed that this was their suave and dandy young master.

The cause of Fan Junsheng’s predicament had taken place a few days ago. Fan Junsheng gathered his group of Crimson Star Sect disciples and they left the hospital. Initially, they thought that there was nothing to worry about, believing that Mo Wen had just simply taught them a lesson.

When they arrived back at the sect, everything changed. The members of the Crimson Star Sect that had accompanied Fan Junsheng had mysteriously died one after another. No one knew what had happened and no one could discover the cause. Aside from Fan Junsheng and Hu Jiangming, everyone else had died.

It did not stop there. Once Fan Junsheng returned to the sect, he fell ill with a strange disease. This illness would not immediately kill a person, but it could make their life a living hell. On a few occasions, Fan Junsheng could not take it anymore and tried to commit suicide. The members of the sect had stopped him every time.

A huge sect like the Crimson Star Sect would naturally have a few miracle physicians. They even had an alchemist. But these so-called miracle physicians could not do anything about Fan Junsheng’s symptoms. They did not know where to begin and could not even find the cause.

“Old Sect Leader, I joined the Crimson Star Sect when I was thirteen. Now, I am ninety-seven. It can be said that I have been in the Crimson Star Sect my whole life. Right now, I have been crippled by someone, and it is my greatest regret. Old Sect Leader, please seek justice for me.”

Hu Jiangming’s head was lowered and his eyes were blank. For an ancient martial art practitioner that had been cultivating their entire lives, seeing their cultivation crippled was the greatest form of torture. Right now, all Hu Jiangming could think about was killing Mo Wen and seeking revenge.

“What was the cause of this matter?” the senior elder asked. He was the Crimson Star Sect’s previous sect leader. His name was Huo Qize, and he was known in martial art circles as Crimson Star Huo Elder. He was a famous figure in the ancient martial arts world. His name was among the known Golden Elixir Realm ancient martial art practitioners.

Because he was holding the fort in the Crimson Star Sect, the Crimson Star Sect currently enjoyed a high status. It could be said that they had held a position of dominance in the ancient martial arts world for decades.

“Old ancestor, this matter started from Junsheng’s marriage. Junsheng previously met a girl and made arrangements with the other party’s parents to marry her. But on the eve of the wedding, the young maiden suddenly fell ill and was admitted into the hospital,” Fan Jingjing said, feeling wronged and with a look of sorrow on her face.

She twisted the fact that Fan Junsheng had forced Shen Jing to marry him, saying instead that the two of them had mutual feelings. She twisted Shen Jing consuming poison to commit suicide into accidentally falling ill. Last but not least, she made Mo Wen into a heinous villain that was truly unreasonable, arrogant and despotic. In short, she claimed that everything had happened because Mo Wen had gone too far.

“Father, that person is practically out of control. He seems to look down on the Crimson Star Sect,” said an elder that stood to the left of the main seat in the chamber of affairs. Among all the people present, he stood at the very front. Clearly he held a rather important position. This person was none other than the Crimson Star Sect current sect leader Huo Shuangnian, Huo Qize’s own son.

Huo Shuangnian immediately became furious when he heard what had happened. Hu Jiangming had repeatedly advised him that the Dafang Sect sect leader was incomparably powerful and that ordinary pinnacle of the Embryonic Breathing Realm ancient martial art practitioners were no match for him. Hu Jiangming begged him to invite the old sect leader out from seclusion. If it wasn’t for this, Huo Shuangnian would have long brought his people to slaughter their way to the Dafang Sect.

He did not believe that a mere sect from the series of three big Mountain Ranges could have such an incredibly strong practitioner. Could it be that even Huo Shuangnian would not be a match for him?

“Elder Hu, is the person really so arrogant and lacking in respect for the Crimson Star Sect?”

Upon hearing Fan Jingjing’s words, Huo Qize slowly turned towards Hu Jiangming. Huo Qize did not entertain Fan Jingjing at all; clearly he was not persuaded by her testimony.

Huo Qize had lived for more than a century. With old age comes great wisdom. Naturally, he would not just listen to the words of one party, especially the words of a woman.

“Old Sect Leader, the young madam’s testimony is a little exaggerated because she is in despair now. However, the Dafang Sect sect leader is indeed very arrogant, showing no respect for the Crimson Star Sect at all. He killed members of the Crimson Star Sect at will. If we do not eliminate this person, the prestige that the Crimson Star Sect has accumulated for over a century will be washed down the drain.”

Hu Jiangming understood the old sect leader’s temper well. Exaggerated words like Fan Jingjing’s would not prompt him into action; instead, it might lead to the opposite outcome. The old sect leader was not at all interested in personal vendettas.

Only by raising the severity of the matter to the state where it could threaten the sect’s prestige would the old sect leader be enraged and swing into action. Compared to the sect leader, the old sect leader was clearly steadier and he was not easily swayed by the words of others.

“Could it be that no one in the sect can heal Fan Junsheng’s wounds?” Huo Qize stared at Fan Junsheng, who lay on the ground like a piece of rotten meat.

Was it possible that even with the ability of the Crimson Star Sect, no one could actually heal him?

“Old Sect Leader, the few of us have exhausted our means. Currently, we can’t heal the illness of the young madam’s brother. This is definitely not an ordinary disease. It is cast by an expert physician. His medical skill is profound, most likely even better than ours,” an elder said helplessly as he walked out from the crowd.

He was renowned as a miracle physician in the martial art circle. His medical skill was not inferior to that of those old miracle physicians from the Medicine King Valley. He was the best physician in the Crimson Star Sect. However, even he was at his wit’s ends when it came to Fan Junsheng’s current situation. He also could not identify the cause of death of those Crimson Star Sect members who had mysteriously died earlier.

The person who had acted so ruthlessly was either someone who had mastered some bizarre secret techniques or someone with extraordinary medical skills.

Upon hearing the elder’s words, Huo Qize nodded. With an incredulous look, Huo Qize asked, “Did you say that the Dafang Sect sect leader is only a youth in his twenties?”

“Old Sect Leader, it is indeed so. The youth is estimated to be twenty years old, but his cultivation is astonishing. I speculate that he most likely has Golden Elixir Realm cultivation. If we don’t eliminate this person, he will become a huge hidden danger for our Crimson Star Sect in the future.” Hu Jiangming took a deep breath. Right now, he still shivered when he thought of the scene he had witnessed. That youth was terrifying. It was definitely a nightmare. action

“Impossible!”

“How is it possible? How could a twenty-year-old youth have the cultivation of the Golden Elixir Realm? If so, why are we still practicing ancient martial arts? We might as well go home and take up farming.”

“How many Golden Elixir Realm ancient martial art practitioners are there in the martial art circle? They can be counted with two hands. How could the youth possibly be a Golden Elixir Realm ancient martial art practitioner? Don’t you talk gibberish there.”

“Did the Dafang Sect sect leader make you go nuts and cause you to hallucinate?”

As soon as Hu Jiangming spoke, gasps of astonishment filled the chamber of affairs. The elders would never believe that a youth in his twenties could have the cultivation at the Golden Elixir Realm. Almost all of them were the upper echelons of the Crimson Star Sect for them to be qualified to appear in the chamber of affairs. Even the ones with the lowest cultivation were at the Embryonic Breathing Realm. Outside, they were all absolute experts. How would they believe that a youth far surpassed them?

Hu Jiangming was extremely bitter. If he had not personally experienced it, he would also not believe such a thing. He had encountered such an impossible incident. Could this really be his fate?

“Silence!” Huo Qize frowned and growled. The chamber of affairs instantly fell silent. One could hear a pin drop. The old sect leader’s majesty was something that no every member of the Crimson Star Sect was afraid of.

“That being said, the Dafang Sect sect leader is indeed powerful. However, just because of that, he thinks that he can indiscriminately kill our members and show no respect for the Crimson Star Sect?” Huo Qize’s voice grew colder. Finally, his voice caused the entire chamber of affairs to turn cold, the surrounding temperature dropping by tens of degrees.

Hu Jiangming revealed a gleeful look in his eyes. The old sect leader was angry. He would certainly not let this matter go.

“The Crimson Star Sect has been established in the martial art circle for more than a hundred years. Not just anybody can simply challenge us. Could it be that just because the Crimson Star Sect has been keeping quiet and is not as high profile as the other sects, they think anyone can simply bully us? Send out a martial art circle announcement.”

...

After a day, the martial art circle was bustling. The ancient martial art practitioners were frantically discussing the matter. It was all because the Crimson Star Sect had spread an announcement.

The announcement spread across the martial art circle at a frightening pace. From the Ten Great Sects to the smaller unknown sects, overnight, almost all of them knew about it.

After forty-seven years, the Crimson Star Sect had once again sent out a martial art circle announcement. Its contents were actually aimed at a rather unknown sect in the martial art circle.

The contents of the announcement called for the sect leader of the Dafang Sect to send an abject apology in person to the Crimson Star Sect, as well as die as a sign of apology. Otherwise, they would eradicate the entire Dafang Sect.

An announcement to eradicate an entire sect sent out by the Crimson Star Sect, ranked fourth among the Ten Great Sects, instantly shook the martial art circle. Everyone was speculating how exactly the Dafang Sect had offended the Crimson Star Sect in order to make them send such an ultimatum.

Although the Dafang Sect that was situated within the series of three big Mountain Ranges had previously found some fame among the martial art circle, many people did not know anything about the Dafang Sect. But right now, overnight, the Dafang Sect’s fame could almost compare with that of the Ten Great Sects.

Everyone was now speculating how the Dafang Sect would handle the Crimson Star Sect’s threat. Would the sect leader really head towards the Crimson Star Sect to send an abject apology in person, as well as die in exchange for the safety of the Dafang Sect? Even more people were curious as to how the Dafang Sect had messed with the Crimson Star Sect.

The martial art circle was in an uproar. All sorts of news were being spread. As for Mo Wen, he stayed in his little courtyard, leisurely passing his days.

Mo Wen only heard the news a day after the martial art circle announcement was announced.

“Eradicate my entire sect?”

Mo Wen looked at the letter in his hand sent by the Dafang Sect’s acting sect leader, Wang Yinru. The corners of his mouth curled into a smile that was incomparably cold and cruel.
