"Our Yuncang Sword Sect’s Qingzhou army is still intact, the sect’s First Seat and Elders remain, and even the Sect Leader is surely unhard."
"Our Jade Dragon Mountain is not isolated and helpless, nor a target anyone can bully with impunity."
"You need not be apprehensive or timid; the more you retreat, the more the enemy will take inch after inch."
"Feel free to act without restraint; should anything happen, I will bear the responsibility."
Though she is rely a woman, she possesses such courage and responsibility, and her words and actions are logical and well-founded, compelling belief.
The three Elders, with a united mind and respectful tone, responded in unison, "We will obey the First Seat’s command."
Once everything was arranged, the three Elders retreated one after another to carry out the orders.
...
Jade Dragon Mountain, Wangchuan Tower.
This location was specially established to entertain visiting guests. Though called a tower, it is actually a small garden with three wooden towers along with rocks, waterfalls, streams, and bamboo woods, exquisitely crafted and highly refined.
At this ti, the Chai Family, Qin Family from the Celestial Patrol Departnt, and sects like Wind Thunder Sect, Cloud Frost Sect, and Liufeng Pavilion had all arrived, staying on Jade Dragon Mountain for seven or eight days.
In addition, there was an instructor from the Northern Life-taking Tower, a tutor from the southern Yueyang Academy, a traveler from Kutuo Mountain, a steward from the Immortal Tower, and an Elder from the Beggar Gang visiting.
Three-tenths of the overlord forces in the Martial World were present.
The rest were Northern Yuncang Sword Sect, Sunset Sect, Youdu, the Central State’s Celestial Law-Controlling Sect, and the southern Black Wind Ridge.
And the Prince’s Mansion, which unified the entire south.
In the past, there were so hidden legacies, prominent families, and gangs from both the righteous and villainous paths, but during the Prince’s Mansion’s unification of the south, they were either decisively subdued or absorbed.
In today’s world, the forces that truly have a na are just these few.
Du ngyan issued an order to expel all the envoys sent by these overlord sects and families from the mountain, imdiately stirring up a hornet’s nest.
Not to ntion other overlord forces elsewhere, the five forces from the Celestial Patrol Departnt had already turned hostile first.
Any one of these five families alone would be no match for other overlord forces, but together under the Celestial Patrol Departnt, they are closely aligned and few dare to provoke them.
The Chai Family had a good relationship with the Li Family, with generations intermarrying. When Lu Chengfeng established a sect atop the Li Family’s corpses on Jade Dragon Mountain, the Chai Family had repeatedly voiced aggression within the Celestial Patrol Departnt, attempting to use its power to suppress them.
Ultimately, it ca to nothing due to the intervention of the Celestial Law-Controlling Sect.
This ti, with the Yuncang Sword Sect in trouble, the Chai Family jumped out first, contacting the other four families to jointly co to Jade Dragon Mountain to pressure for Lu Chengfeng’s whereabouts.
The Chai family representative was Chai Yanzong, the current Patriarch, who had cultivated the Chai Family’s Woodcutting Blade Technique to the Twenty-Third Layer, refining the Life-Severing Blade Intent, ruthless and vicious by nature.
Seeing Elder Yun Mo leading disciples to ceremoniously escort the guests down the mountain, he couldn’t help but sneer, thinking to himself, "This is really a cushion for a tired head, I was just worrying about having no excuse to make trouble."
At this thought, he simply leaped from the second floor of his accommodated wooden building employing Lightweight Technique, pressing his left hand on the knife handle at his waist, his tone icy as he shouted at Elder Yun Mo standing in the garden, "We have co from afar to your sect, with the intention of finding the demon for the Martial World peers and the world’s beings, to safeguard righteousness."
"Yet now you want to drive us down the mountain? Is this your Jade Dragon Mountain’s way of hospitality?"
"Or do you know full well where the demon Lu Chengfeng is hiding, and want to conceal it for him?"
"Or perhaps you are in league with that demon from the start?"
Elder Yun Mo, seeing as the visitor ca with hostility, kept his face still, speaking with continued composure, "The esteed guest misunderstands. Our Jade Dragon Mountain’s First Seat recently had so insights during cultivation, wishes to go into closed-door training and seal the mountain, to break through an important martial arts barrier. Thus, it is reluctantly that I am tasked to courteously escort all guests down the mountain, with absolutely no disrespect."
"If there’s any discourtesy, this old man apologizes to everyone here."
Upon saying this, he clasped his hands around his sword and bowed slightly.
However, Chai Yanzong, having co to provoke, would not let it go lightly. He sneered, "Why not go into seclusion earlier or later, but choose this exact ti? What logic is there in this?"
"It is clear to that you harbor so guilt, intending to shelter Lu Chengfeng."
"If you want us down the mountain, it’s not impossible. Reveal Lu Chengfeng’s whereabouts and we’ll naturally leave."
"Otherwise..."
With a clang, he drew his blade, the blade’s glint chilling as snow, "Ask my blade first if it agrees."
Elder Yun Mo narrowed his eyes, "Why must the esteed guest be so aggressive? Does he not know the principle of ’when in Ro, do as the Romans do’? Our Jade Dragon Mountain’s First Seat needs to close-door train, none are allowed to disturb. This is known to all in the Martial World. Does Patriarch Chai intend to defy the world to commit such an unreasonable act?"
Chai Yanzong remained unmoved, raising his long blade towards Elder Yun Mo’s brow, "Cut the nonsense, either disclose news of Lu Chengfeng and I’ll leave of my own accord."
"Otherwise, settling this peacefully today is impossible!"
The confrontation drew all the guests staying at Wangchuan Tower to converge their gazes here, and the atmosphere instantly beca tense, as sharp as a drawn sword.
