Amongst Cultivators, I Stand Above All Novel - Chapter 191

191 We’ll Do as You Say
For this reason, the sects that were ranked lower would try their best to deal with the sects that were ranked higher.

The Lightning Grandmaster looked at Jiang Huang and asked, “Although I’m not 100 percent confident, I have some clues. Let’s talk about it.”

Jiang Huang sighed. “From the clues we found, there might be people from Hehuan Valley here, but the evidence isn’t accurate enough…”

The Lightning Grandmaster recalled that when he was playing with the communication jade slip earlier, he had seen a message on it. A look of sudden realization appeared on his face as he said, “Have you heard about the Beast Trainer Sect killing the disciples of the Masked Moon Sect?”

“Yes,” Jiang Huang nodded, “But the Beast Trainer Sect has already said that the disciples of the sect were possessed by demons.”

!!
The Lightning Grandmaster laughed sarcastically and said nothing, but Jiang Huang already understood.

Jiang Huang cupped his fists and explained the purpose of his visit. Huang Jiang said, “Old Master, I want to open the trial grounds and let the sect’s disciples cultivate inside. It’s already very dangerous to go out now, so let them enter the trial grounds for the time being.”

The trial grounds had already been opened when these disciples first entered the sect. If they wanted to open it again, even Jiang Huang, who was the Sect Master, had no right. According to the rules, they had to get the approval of the sect’s Patriarchs. At this time, many Patriarchs were in seclusion, and only the hot-tempered Lightning Grandmaster came out.

The Lightning Grandmaster pondered for a moment before saying, “We’ll do as you say.”

Jiang Huang laughed and cupped his fists, “I thank Old Master on behalf of the sect’s junior disciples!”

…

Although the death and injury rate in the Heaven Thunder Hall was not low, the disciples of the Ningtian Sect, who were ranked second, had it even worse.

Unlike the other sects, almost all the sword cultivators of the Ningtian Sect left the mountain to train. Last month, almost all the sword cultivators of the sect had accepted missions.

Those who did not have any missions even formed teams with the disciples of the Alchemy Sect, the Equipment Refining Sect, and the Talisman Sect.

Everyone knew that no matter where a sword cultivator went, not even a blade of grass would grow. They would kill beasts, touch trees, and cut down trees. In order to earn some spirit stones, they would do almost anything.

However, these swordsmen could not stop an ambush.

The power of sword cultivators was not only in spells, but also in sword techniques. Compared to other cultivators, sword cultivators had the strength to fight above their level.

Many of them came back with wounds all over their bodies. Some of them were lucky and were saved by Master Wukun who was passing by. The sect counted carefully and found that seven disciples had died in three months.

When Master Yijian learned of this, he was furious. These disciples had been painstakingly cultivated. How could they be killed just like that?

Master Yijian was so angry that he shouted in the Sect Master’s Wei Nan cave abode, “You can’t afford to play? You actually dare to treat our disciple like this?”

Wei Nan’s expression was also quite unsightly, but he was also worried that Master Yijian would really do something. Wei Nan immediately consoled him, “They’re all sinister and shady. Wait in the arena. We’ll deal with them openly!”

When Master Yijian heard this, he was taken aback. He then asked, “Senior Brother, you already know which sect did it?”

Before Wei Nan could say anything, Master Yijian said, “That’s right. Sect Master, you have a mirror that can turn back time. You can definitely find out who did it!”

Hearing this, Wei Nan sighed and said, “How could the person who attacked not know about this? Since they dared to attack, they naturally wouldn’t let us discover them so easily.”

The Time-Tracking Mirror was a treasure that every Sect Master of the Ningtian Sect kept. All the major sects in the Immortal cultivation world knew about this. Occasionally, some people would come to borrow it from Wei Nan, and the frozen heaven sect earned a lot of spirit stones from it.

Master Yijian frowned. Wei Nan said, “The attackers were all dressed in black, and they were all using swords. There were all kinds of sword techniques, and almost all of them were not very common. I also checked the scene of the attack on a few disciples, and found that among these people, a few of their movement techniques were similar to the Green Cloud Sect’s Cloud Ladder…”

Master Yijian nodded and walked out.

“Junior Brother!” Wei Nan immediately shouted. “What are you doing?”

“I’m going to spar with the Green Cloud Sect!” Master Yijian said.

With that, he walked out.

“We don’t have enough evidence right now,” said Wei Nan hurriedly. “Don’t make a scene that can’t be resolved!”

Master Yijian summoned his sword and jumped onto it. He said, “Don’t worry, Senior Brother. I understand.”

When Wei Nan heard Master Yijian’s words, he seemed to truly be at ease. He did not even bother giving chase.

When Wei Nan’s disciples saw Master Yijian leave, they asked worriedly, “Master, Martial Uncle Yijian is a reckless person. If he just goes like this, what if something really happens?”
