This is indeed a great opportunity!
Even the mbers of Blazing Hall were secretly rooting for Chu Qing.
They all saw the power of this strike with their own eyes. If it fell upon Iron Blood Hall in a sweeping motion, Blazing Hall would have won!
However, the soldier at the forefront couldn’t avoid the impact.
His form was enveloped by Chu Qing’s "Thousand Miles Ice Field," causing his body to stiffen and his Lightweight Technique to lose its agility.
Suspended in mid-air, he was powerless to maneuver.
Thus, he could only watch helplessly as the giant saber aura, forty ters wide, swept past him.
As Tie Lingyun and the others watched in horror, the saber aura had already transford from solid to illusory, eventually dissipating into nothingness.
Despite the surrounding cold, Tie Lingyun felt cold sweat streaming down his forehead.
He wiped it away with his hand, finally breathing a sigh of relief.
At least the Third Young Master wasn’t so deranged as to kill them all with a single strike.
But that strike was truly terrifying!
mbers of Blazing Hall felt a tinge of disappointnt... If that strike had hit, how good would it have been?
Only the soldier who fell from mid-air bore a face ashen with the color of death.
He was lifted by Chu Qing in one grasp.
Though he appeared intact, all the ridians throughout his body had already been severed by Chu Qing’s strike.
While he was still alive, it was hardly different from being dead.
Chu Qing shook him lightly and casually tossed him to Beitang Zun.
Beitang Zun took a deep breath:
"Thank you, Third Young Master."
At that mont, he felt as if he’d taken a turn away from Ghost Gate.
Back at Yin Yang Forest, he’d realized this person’s Martial Arts were formidable and troubleso.
Thus, upon hearing Chu Qing’s na, he chose to turn and leave.
But Chu Qing wouldn’t allow it... once engaged, he found he couldn’t win.
Later, when attacked by the mushroom people, Chu Qing’s "Thousand Miles Ice Field" made Beitang Zun’s heart shudder.
Yet, neither of those did compare to this instance, with that staggering saber aura spanning over ten zhang above.
If during the battle of the halls, Chu Qing stood with Iron Blood Hall, how many would he slay solely with this Saber Technique?
It’s simply unimaginable!
"What kind of Mad Saber is this...
This Saber Technique is practically the Celestial Saber!"
"Celestial Saber Third Young Master!?"
"’Celestial Saber Young Master’ sounds smoother."
"But ’Mad Saber Young Master’ doesn’t sound too bad either."
"Why can’t this Saber Technique be called Mad Saber? It’s crazily spanning the heavens!"
"..."
Chu Qing stood still after sheathing his saber, hearing soone mumbling.
Moreover, even though it’s expected for Blazing Hall to mumble, why was Iron Blood Hall mumbling too?
Was this a hint to change his nickna?
Chu Qing didn’t mind, thinking the na Mad Saber Third Young Master sounded odd anyway...
But clearly, this wasn’t the mont to ponder such matters.
He coughed once:
"Hall Master Beitang, the previous conversation hasn’t finished yet. Now that this person is dealt with, you can continue with your unfinished words.
"Also, this will clarify things for everyone."
Finally, these words pulled the crowd from the chaotic atmosphere, and all eyes turned to Beitang Zun.
Beitang Zun had already thought through a pretext.
At this ti, he took a deep breath and said:
"This matter is indeed lengthy...
The Celestial Evil Cult has infiltrated Blazing Hall long ago, my brother Beitang Lie... fell victim to their treachery long ago!"
Upon hearing this, a stone was indeed cast and stirred a thousand waves.
"How is this possible?"
"When did this happen?"
"Why didn’t we know?"
"The Evil Cult’s thods are deceitful, so ignorance is normal. Didn’t we fail to notice this person impersonating the Hall Master?"
Hong Tao stepped forward:
"Vice Hall Master, what... what actually happened?"
"Alas..."
Beitang Zun sighed:
"I’m unsure when this began.
To be honest, I believe this started before this battle even began.
I’ve spoken with my brother about the current situation before, never considering provoking a battle between the halls.
"""
"Especially... before this, my brother and I t with the emissary of the Ghost Emperor and received the Ghost Emperor’s edict!
"It ordered our great influence not to act rashly for the ti being...
"So my brother and I both believed we should focus on stability and not provoke any martial world disturbances.
"Yet unexpectedly, my brother suddenly initiated a battle between two halls with the Fla Order, leading to the Ghost God Gorge incident."
The Ghost Emperor’s edict!?
This matter was unknown to ordinary people.
But Tie Lingyun’s eyes slightly narrowed... he too received the Ghost Emperor’s edict.
However, the account differed slightly from Beitang Zun’s version.
The Ghost Emperor’s edict was a prohibition on crossing Heaven-Reaching Ridge to Lingbei.
It was not ant to prevent them from expanding their influence.
Nevertheless, at this mont Tie Lingyun naturally wouldn’t expose Beitang Zun.
And Beitang Zun continued speaking:
"I initially didn’t wish for this battle, unclear why my brother acted so suddenly.
"Yet, with the Fla Order issued, it had to be respected.
"Recently, as you all know, I was ordered to ambush Vice Hall Master Cheng of Iron Blood Hall.
"At first, it went smoothly, chasing Vice Hall Master Cheng into a secret realm.
"Unexpectedly, I encountered the Third Young Master.
"From the Third Young Master, I learned there was a shadow of the Celestial Evil Cult involved in this battle... however, the Third Young Master’s words alone were hard to believe.
"But aligned with the inconsistent actions of my brother, a few doubts inevitably arose in my heart.
"Although the Third Young Master captured , he did not kill .
"In the end, he even released ... letting investigate this matter.
"After that, I returned to the Blazing Hall!"
The truth naturally needed to be mixed with lies to gain others’ trust.
Thus, everything Beitang Zun said was indeed true...
The people present looked at Chu Qing, their expressions varied.
Especially those from the Blazing Hall, now realizing the Vice Hall Master fell into his hands and revealed the truth.
Yet how he knew remained unknown?
This was not the ti to explain everything; Beitang Zun continued:
"Actually, before all this, I already sensed so changes in my brother, yet couldn’t pinpoint exactly what was wrong.
"With insights from the Third Young Master, I managed to see through the mist.
"Though I hadn’t fully seen the truth, there was still so hope.
"However, upon investigation, not only did I find the Celestial Evil Cult lurking in our Blazing Hall, harming our disciples.
"Even my brother... had long been hard by them.
"They wore my brother’s face, committing heinous acts.
"Not only did they harm hall mbers, they also aid to wreak havoc in the martial world!
"The Blazing Hall, standing in the martial world for many years, has always had principles, they not only took my brother’s life but also wished to drag the Blazing Hall into the abyss of no return!
"Truly hateful beyond asure!"
"So that’s how it is!"
"There are such hidden truths in this."
"We were all unaware!"
"Then this battle... wasn’t it completely unnecessary?"
"But now, so many have died and Iron Blood Hall won’t rest easy with us?"
The Blazing Hall mbers discussed among themselves, so showing a bit of guilt.
Of course, so furrowed their brows, feeling the situation was not good.
Beitang Zun then said:
"I uncovered the truth, and they wanted to silence ... during my disappearance, you were all still searching for .
"It’s not that he feared sothing happened to but worried I was alive and would reveal the truth!
"Thankfully, when I was near death, the Night Emperor saved .
"After hearing my story, he agreed to my request, went to Blazing Hall, and killed the fake Hall Master!"
With these words, the room couldn’t help but be in an uproar.
It turned out that the one who ca to assassinate last night was the Night Emperor!
This man is indeed as legendary, able to make Heaven and Earth Lose Color, freely coming and going amid thousands of troops.
"After this, I traveled to Iron Blood Hall... Hall Master Tie Bo Yun Tian, after hearing my experiences, not only spared but also agreed to help rectify the situation.
"Now with my brother hard, I must take on the duty of Hall Master of Blazing Hall.
"I announce that starting today, Iron Blood Hall and Blazing Hall will form a defensive alliance!
"This battle ends here!"
Tie Lingyun secretly curled his lip, glanced at Chu Qing, pinching his nose he accepted this ’defensive alliance.’
In his heart, he cursed Beitang Zun with a stream of invective.
This scoundrel always takes advantage of the fire... truly despicable!
