The crowd present all regarded the Second Elder with mocking expressions. Over the past decade or so, the dicine Sect has risen to power thanks to three types of elixirs, but in doing so, they’ve accumulated nurous rivals among the Ten Great Sects.
Now, the monopoly of the dicine Sect has finally been broken, and what follows will undoubtedly be a scenario of everyone taking advantage of their downfall.
At this mont, people had even forgotten about Su Yang’s previous matter. After all, to the Ten Great Sects, Su Yang’s affair was rely a minor issue. The dicine Sect’s monopoly, however—this is the pivotal matter that directly affects the core interests of all Ten Great Sects!
The headmaster calmly watched the Second Elder as he desperately sought assistance, until his silence gave way to utter disappointnt. Only then did the headmaster speak coldly: "What’s the matter? Why aren’t you continuing? Weren’t you the one accusing us of stealing your refining thods? Why the sudden silence?"
The Second Elder gritted his teeth, his expression dark and grim. He knew that this ti, the dicine Sect had truly suffered a devastating setback.
"Justice resides in the hearts of n!" the Second Elder spat through clenched teeth. "Don’t assu that by stealing the refining thods of my dicine Sect, you can truly shake our foundation. My dicine Sect has more miracle elixirs and dicines—sothing you can never asure up to!"
"Heh..." The headmaster responded with a cold chuckle.
The Second Elder’s face darkened further. His words were nothing but bravado. He gritted his teeth, turned abruptly, and barked: "Let’s see how long you can revel in this! We’re leaving!"
The dicine Sect’s mbers began to follow the Second Elder to leave. Just then, Su Yang took a step forward and said coldly: "Second Elder, this matter isn’t over yet. Do you think you can just walk away?"
The Second Elder glared at Su Yang indignantly: "What do you want now?"
"You’ve killed so many of my brothers. Surely, there must be an explanation for that?" Su Yang demanded.
"You want to give you an explanation?" the Second Elder barked, his tone icy and furious. "Qinghe Academy stole the refining thods of my dicine Sect. Should I then demand an explanation from soone?"
"If you truly believe we stole your refining thods, then bring your people and co kill us!" the headmaster retorted harshly, his voice cold, shocking everyone present.
It was widely known that the headmaster’s temperant was generally mild. Despite the unsatisfactory outcos of previous negotiations with the Ten Great Sects, he had never uttered a single harsh word. For him to speak like this now demonstrated his deep dissatisfaction with the dicine Sect!
The Second Elder remained silent. While he wished he could trouble Qinghe Academy, he simply didn’t possess the capability. Qinghe Academy was filled with experts—so much so that even the Martial God Altar couldn’t compete, let alone the dicine Sect. If they were to truly clash, it’s likely the entire dicine Sect would perish, yet they might still fail to kill even a few mbers of Qinghe Academy!
"Did you hear that?" Su Yang sneered. "The headmaster said you could voice your grievances to them. As for , I’m extrely dissatisfied with your dicine Sect, and I’m here to exact vengeance—surely, that’s acceptable?"
The Second Elder trembled with rage, shouting furiously: "When a tiger falls to the plains, it’s mocked by dogs! And you’re just a nobody—do you think you can seek revenge against us? Do you truly believe our dicine Sect is so easily bullied?"
"Judging by the current situation, it seems the dicine Sect *is* rather easy to bully!" Su Yang smirked, sparking laughter among his companions.
The Second Elder, seething with anger, roared: "Su, do you have a death wish? Let warn you—if you truly provoke us, I’m willing to kill you personally even if it costs my life at the hands of the Law Enforcers!"
"Then let’s see whose skills reign supre!" Su Yang declared proudly and coldly. "Everyone, listen up—today sixteen of our brothers have perished. Therefore, sixteen mbers of the dicine Sect must die today!"
The mbers of the dicine Sect erupted in uproar. They didn’t bring many people this ti—only twenty to thirty in total. Among them, there were only thirteen individuals below the level of Terrestrial Immortal. If Su Yang intended to kill sixteen of them, it ant that three of their Terrestrial Immortals would need to perish here!
"Su, you’re dreaming!" the Second Elder shouted angrily. "Why don’t you just claim you’ll take down as well?"
"I’d like to give it a try!" Su Yang sneered, then shouted loudly: "Brother Lü, lend a hand!"
"No problem!" Lü Donglin laughed heartily and joined Su Yang, advancing toward the Second Elder from the left and right.
The Second Elder’s face turned icy as he imdiately struck out with a palm.
Already prepared, Su Yang had arranged four Divine Beast Jade Stones to form an array, drawing the Second Elder’s power into it. This array, combined with Su Yang’s Devouring the Heavens technique, was capable of temporarily fending off the Second Elder’s attacks!
Lü Donglin seized this mont to rush forward, launching an attack from the side.
The Second Elder’s first strike was ineffective, and he moved swiftly to counter Lü Donglin’s offensive. Yet, as he unleashed his second attack, Su Yang had already advanced, intercepting it. Lü Donglin followed up with another strike, catching the Second Elder off guard and nearly dealing a heavy blow.
Almost losing to two juniors, the Second Elder’s expression beca even darker. Taking a deep breath, he unleashed his full strength, aiming to seriously injure the two adversaries.
However, both Su Yang and Lü Donglin were imnsely skillful. Moreover, with Su Yang’s four Divine Beast Jade Stones forming an array to withstand the Second Elder’s power, the duo steadily suppressed him, leaving the Second Elder battered and humiliated.
All around, spectators were astonished. Many among them were Terrestrial Immortals, and in their hearts, they calculated their chances of victory if they faced Su Yang and Lü Donglin.
The consensus of most Terrestrial Immortals present was low confidence. The truth was undeniable: Su Yang and Lü Donglin were each capable of taking down a Terrestrial Immortal individually. Together, with the four Divine Beast Jade Stones and the overwhelming Secret Technique of Devouring the Heavens, they could easily overwhelm a formidable Terrestrial Immortal!
Su Yang’s group pressed forward, beginning their assault on the dicine Sect mbers.
anwhile, factions such as Soaring Cloud Pavilion, Heavenly Blade Peak, and Horizon’s End—who once loudly supported the dicine Sect—quietly stepped aside, vacating the mountaintop and choosing to observe the scene from a distance.
Old Wang the Second, along with three others, two monks, and Xue Nu, naturally intercepted several Terrestrial Immortals. As for others, like Zhao Hu Zi, they focused their efforts on attacking those below the Terrestrial Immortal level.
The remaining Terrestrial Immortals from the dicine Sect attempted to retaliate against Su Yang’s group, only to be blocked by mbers of Qinghe Academy.
"What are you doing?" the Second Elder questioned furiously amid the chaos. "Qinghe Academy, what does this have to do with you?"
"Haven’t I told you already?" the headmaster said. "Su Yang is one of our Qinghe Academy mbers. His affairs are *our* affairs!"
"You..." the Second Elder trembled with rage but found himself helpless.
As he glanced around at the spectators watching with cold sneers, the Second Elder knew—his dicine Sect had truly fallen victim to the "everyone kicks the downed wall" phenonon!
