Chapter 36 - Will the Bihai Dynasty Ancestor act?
Celestial Sword Sect
In the inner disciples' room, a disciple was hurriedly packing his things, as if he was about to run away, until a group of disciples interrupted him:
"Younger brother Ji, are you really running away?"
"Yes, younger brother Ji, why are you running away? We have to stay and fight."
"You don't really believe that Shura Palace can destroy our sect, do you?"
The disciple called Younger Brother Ji just looked at them and said angrily: "I'm the one who won't risk my life for the Heavenly Sword Sect."
"Stop being ungrateful. You only reached Core Condensation cultivation thanks to the sect. Now that the sect needs you, you abandon it?" another inner disciple said with a righteous expression.
"Haha, I got my cultivation thanks..." Younger Brother Ji, who was about to leave the sect, couldn't finish his sentence because a sword fell from the sky splitting him in half.
Looking at Younger Brother Ji's body, the other disciples looked up in panic and saw a figure standing in the air. As soon as they saw this person, their expressions changed instantly and they spoke respectfully to the figure that had appeared:
"I've seen the Sect Master."
"I've seen the Sect Master."
Chu Yifan ignored these inner disciples and continued to release his divine consciousness, covering the entire sect.
Every time Chu Yifan discovered a disciple who was about to flee, a sword would fall from the sky and kill him instantly.
Looking at the disciples, who were watching him in terror after having seen him kill almost a tenth of all the disciples in the sect, Chu Yifan spoke with a cold expression that everyone inside the sect area could hear: "Our Heavenly Sword Sect doesn't need cowardly disciples!"
"As for the Shura Palace, it's not certain who will be destroyed in three days..."
As soon as he had finished speaking, Chu Yifan disappeared into the sky, leaving behind a sentence that echoed throughout the sect: "Destroy the families of all the disciples who tried to betray the sect today!"
"Silvo." All the disciples couldn't help but feel a chill when they heard these cruel words from the Sect Master.
It seems that the Sect Master wants to use these disciples who ran away as an example for the others!
At the same time, they swore in their hearts that they would never dare to disobey or betray the sect.
After returning to the Sect Meeting Hall, Chu Yifan sighed slightly and said to the elders present: "Find everyone who has a grudge against Shura Palace and tell them that if they come in three days, my Heavenly Sword Sect will owe them a favor."
Although Chu Yifan spoke those confident and even slightly arrogant words in front of the whole sect, he is no fool. He recognizes that Shura Palace's strength is very mysterious, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to try to gather all the forces that have a grudge against Shura Palace and form an alliance.
"Yes, Sect Master," replied the elders present respectfully before finally leaving, but in their hearts they felt a certain disdain for Shura Palace. They didn't believe that Shura Palace could destroy the Heavenly Sword Sect.
If it were to assassinate some of them by stealth, these ancients would be a little worried. However, the Shura Palace's arrogance in claiming that it will devastate the entire sect and even giving the exact date, as if to give them time to prepare, has left them disdainful.
The elders of the sect think it would be impossible for the Shura Palace to destroy the sect. Even if the Bihai Dynasty Ancestor came in person, he might not be able to do it!
After all, the Heavenly Sword Sect is considered the first among the five main sects of the Bihai Dynasty.
Chu Yifan, finally alone in the main hall, sighed slightly: "Shura Palace, you really are arrogant."
Chu Yifan really hadn't expected that Shura Palace would make such wild claims of destroying the entire Heavenly Sword Sect after finding out about their trap; after all, that would be very impulsive!
Even Chu Yifan didn't want to fight Shura Palace to the death from the start, at most he wanted to make Shura Palace pay a high price and hand over his son's murderer.
But who would have thought that Shura Palace would be so impulsive and arrogant as to warn the entire eastern region that it would completely destroy the Heavenly Sword Sect in three days?
In this way, they had practically become life and death enemies. If Chu Yifan didn't destroy Shura Palace now, how would his Heavenly Sword Sect's reputation fare?
Likewise, if Shura Palace doesn't destroy the Heavenly Sword Sect, where will Shura Palace's reputation be?
Capital of the Bihai Dynasty
Inside the ancestral hall of the Bihai Dynasty, the current emperor He Kaishen was respectfully reporting to the ancestor He Xianglan: "Ancestor, the Shura Palace has issued a decree saying that it will destroy the Heavenly Sword Sect."
"Oh?" He Xianglan was a little surprised to hear that. Destroying the Heavenly Sword Sect was something that even he couldn't imagine, as he knew some ancient secrets and knew that the Heavenly Sword Sect had existed since before the Bihai Dynasty was created.
"It seems I underestimated the mystery of Shura Palace," muttered He Xianglan.
After seeing Shi Hu escape like that, He Xianglan questioned He Kaishen about the force he was part of.
After finding out about the Shura Palace and all its achievements from He Kaishen, He Xianglan was very curious about this new force that had suddenly appeared. Now knowing that the Shura Palace had so arrogantly announced that it was going to destroy a sect like the Heavenly Sword Sect and had still given them time to prepare.
He Xianglan wondered if the Shura Palace was all that!
"Ancestor, do you intend to act?" He Kaishen asked He Xianglan hesitantly. After all, he remembered that day when Shi Hu had offended the ancestor and even spoken bold words saying that he would kill him.
