Liang Xiaoyu, after listening, agreed with evident approval, "Hmm... It seems that after such a long period of reflection, Hall Master Guo, you have finally regained your sanity!"
Guo Xiaoxu detected the sarcasm in his words and retorted mercilessly, "Bah, what do you mean regained my sanity? I've always been this astute!"
Taking a deep breath, Liang Xiaoyu stepped forward, patted his shoulder, and said, "In that case, it might be possible for the Sect Leader to restore your status as Hall Master. Living with this identity can't be pleasant for you, can it?"
"Forget it, I have no interest in the position of Hall Master!"
"Moreover, with the current state of the Tang Sect, there probably isn't a place for me anymore, is there?"
Even if he was restored to the position of Hall Master, his status would not be as it once was. Rather than that, it would be better to maintain the status quo!
At least he would feel more at ease in his heart!
The screams grew fainter and the three Sect Masters engulfed in the light, their white robes becoming tattered, slowly fell from the sky to the ground, creating human-shaped craters upon their hard landing...
Clutching at their last breath to avoid losing consciousness, they weakly got up, coughing continuously...
"Cough cough..."
The Sect Master of the Evil Spirit Sect witnessed this scene and, walking toward them at an unhurried pace, sneered, "Is this truly the extent of your strength? Even weaker than I had anticipated!"
He had thought these three Sect Masters might surprise him, but their strength turned out to be so disappointing!
It was a letdown that he didn't even have to use half his full strength.
Watching the Sect Master of the Xie Ling Sect drawing closer, the Qing Luan Sect Master bit her lip and said bitterly, "Damn it! We're no match for him!"
The pupils of the Giant Sword Sect Master narrowed, as he suppressed his anger and said, "Yes! His strength is on a completely different level from ours. From the beginning of the battle, he's just been toying with us, never revealing his true strength."
The Sect Master of the Wind Thunder Sect, dragging his weary body, looked around and suddenly realized that very few disciples from their Four Great Sects were left!
It did not take much to guess that their ultimate fate was total annihilation...
After taking a deep breath, he turned his gaze back to the Qing Luan Sect Master and the Giant Sword Sect Master, his tone icy, "If that's the case, then let's give the Evil Spirit Sect one last parting gift!"
Indeed, they lacked the strength to harm the Sect Master of the Xie Ling Sect, but if they self-detonated, at the very least they could take a significant number of Xie Ling Sect Disciples down with them!
The two leaders of the Qing Luan Sect understood immediately, exchanging a glance before nodding...
It was the last thing they could do!
Seeing this, the Sect Master of the Evil Spirit Sect chuckled coldly, "Oh? Deciding to do something at the last minute? Don't tell me you plan to self-detonate and drag my disciples of the Xie Ling Sect down with you?"
Upon hearing this, the faces of the three Sect Masters from the opposite side froze...
How on earth had this guy figured out their plan?
But even though he had seen through them, it wouldn't stop them from carrying it out!
The next moment, the three of them triggered the explosion of their Dantians at the same time, their expressions gradually becoming twisted, and the Spiritual Power within them began to move erratically, like headless flies...
The Sect Master of the Evil Spirit Sect licked the corner of his mouth, his tone icy, "Hehe, do you really think you can self-detonate in front of me?"
Immediately, he muttered inwardly, "Heavenly Ranked Superior Martial Technique! 'Craving of the Undead'!"
Suddenly, behind the three Sect Masters of the Azure Luan Sect, three indistinct and barely visible figures appeared, wiggled a bit, then shot straight into the bodies before them...
Instantly...
Their expressions grew ferocious as their souls began to be devoured by the sinister entities!!
Unable to bear the pain, they let out agonized screams...
"Ahhhhh!! What... what is this??"
"It's so painful... Ahhhhh!!!"
"Even self-destruction... I can't... do it..."
After a while, they gradually calmed down, their pupils looking utterly hollow, like soulless puppets...
The Sect Master of the Xie Ling Sect coldly snorted and nonchalantly swung his arm, a vast chill flashed past the three people's necks, beheading them...
...
Elsewhere, Xu Sheng's right hand tightly gripped his personal sword, slashing at the attacking elder, who blocked it, while his left hand shifted from palm to fist, striking the elder's abdomen with an unexpected blow...
The terrifying power contained within was released in an instant, shattering the elder's internal organs, and the entire person exploded into a blood fog on the spot, staining the ground crimson...
The nearest Elder of the Evil Spirit Sect felt a chill at the bottom of his heart...
How terrifying is this guy exactly?
To be able to punch a Body Integration Realm expert to death, only their Sect Master could possibly do that, right?
Luckily, they had not provoked him like Mei Li did, otherwise they would surely be left without a complete corpse!
This shocking scene made the remaining three elders tremble uncontrollably...
One of the elders stammered, "We... dozens of Body Integration Realm elders... were slain by this guy!!"
Another elder swallowed hard, his face filled with fear, "Should we... should we just run?? We... we can't beat him!!"
The vast disparity in strength, which could be described as despairing, had made him lose any intent to resist!
The last elder glanced at the several Evil Spirit Sect elders poised to act by the side and then to the Sect Master of the Xie Ling Sect, who was watching the three of them with cold indifference from another place...
They were like turtles in a jar!
There was no choice but to brace themselves and shout, "Run?? With the Sect Leaders fallen, can we even escape?? We have to fight him!!"
However, the next second, unexpectedly, his eyes widened as a thin line of blood slowly appeared on his neck...
Soon after, his head eerily slid off, and he could even see his own headless body...
This scene frightened the nearby two elders out of their wits; they immediately knelt down, each begging, "Please... please spare us! We were forced to attack the Evil Spirit Sect!"
"Yes, yes, it was the Sect Master who forced us, we didn't want to come, please grant us a way to live!"
Xu Sheng narrowed his eyes, to be honest, he didn't really have any deep hatred with them...
As he hesitated, the nearby Elders of the Evil Spirit Sect hurriedly said, "Elder Xu, you must cut the weeds and eliminate the roots! Otherwise, there will be endless trouble!!"
"If these two guys go to that place, who knows what trouble they could still bring!"
"That's right, Elder Xu, just finish off these two!"
Why did they suggest rather than act themselves? Well, of course, they didn't dare...
The scene of Xu Sheng explosively punching a Nascent Soul Period expert to death was still etched in their minds...
