Translator: 549690339
What did the presence of five Divine Travel Stage powerhouses mean? The terrifying airwaves swept across mid-air, as powerful as rumbling thunder, covering the sky and the sun — a horrifying spectacle to behold. White Cloud Mountain had harbored an unknown number of practitioners. After the appearance of the five Void Cultivation Stage powerhouses, everyone gasped in shock, emerging from their hiding places.
By this time, there was no need to hide anymore. Now that the five eminent Divine Travel Stage powers had emerged, the rumor that Yang Zhen was on White Cloud Mountain awaiting a secret treasure was essentially confirmed. Retracting a step further, even if there were no secret treasure, given that Yang Zhen had stayed here for so long and that the five Divine Travel Stage powerhouses pounced in unison, he was doomed.
The turbulent clouds in the sky, the violent and arrogant postures of the five Divine Travel Stage powerhouses, were the symbol of their might. The joint action of these five wielders of supreme power was sufficient to overrun the entire Nether State continent.
Of course, these five Divine Travel Stage powers would not arbitrarily run rampant across the continent. However, their unprecedented collective action against one Void Cultivation Stage practitioner, Yang Zhen, was astounding. From a bird’s eye view, the ground was densely packed with curious spectators, countless practitioners keeping an eye on the unfolding events. At this point, hardly anyone was concerned about the hidden treasure anymore.
If Yang Zhen survived the day, his reputation in the Nether State continent would resonate across the entire stretch of lands inhabited by people. His fame would be ubiquitous.
However, under these circumstances, Yang Zhen’s demise was almost certain. No matter if he had killed a Divine Travel Stage powerhouse before, facing five of them who were prepared was invariably a checkmate.
When Yang Zhen appeared, everyone gasped in disbelief. They looked at Yang Zhen and the arrogant cat by his side, who held everyone in contempt.
No matter how one looked at it, the pairing of Yang Zhen and the contemptuous cat was…….. truly insufferable.
Shangyuan Sect.
Sect Master Lu Chenghui, Great Elder Gou Shengtian, Second Elder Wei Tong, Third Elder Ye Changsheng, and Fourth Elder Changyue Real Man — the elders wore terrified expressions as they looked at the five Void Cultivation Stage powerhouses in the sky amidst astonishment. Disoriented, their faces turned pale.
Even Sect Master Lu Chenghui, who was only in the Nascent Soul Stage, a recent newly advanced stage, was utterly discouraged about the idea of confronting the five Divine Travel Stage powerhouses.
A single Divine Travel Stage powerhouse could easily annihilate him. Now there were five.
“Sect Master, have we offended anyone while we were devoted to our respective cultivation practices?” Changyue Real Man asked Lu Chenghui with a worried expression. Liu Ruoning’s face changed multiple times. She was on the verge of breaking into the Golden Pill stage. Her speedy cultivation progress made the entire Shangyuan Sect joyful, and they were pouring great effort into nurturing her.
However, facing such a powerful enemy, they could only resign to fate. It was the helplessness of a small sect.
Lu Chenghui pondered for a moment after hearing his words, responded, “We have not offended anyone, but…”
Dropping his words there, Lu Chenghui gave a bitter smile. His laughter began to grow louder until he burst out in boisterous laughter. A powerful aura emanated from him as he spoke, “In the world of cultivating, the strongest reigns supreme. Who could resist these people when they are dead set on murder?”
Gou Shengtian coldly scoffed in shock and retorted, “We surely cannot let them insult us without reason, could we? Do they regard my Shangyuan Sect as easy prey?”
Wei Tong, who stood nearby, smiled bitterly and replied, “Elder Gou, though I am reluctant to admit it, for them, we seem to be easy to bully.”
Gou Shengtian turned pale with rage, he kept silent but fixed his gaze on Lu Chenghui, “Sect Master Senior Brother, tell us what to do?”
Lu Chenghui’s face grew stern, he looked around and commanded, “Listen to my order!”
Everyone grew tense and fixed their gaze on Lu Chenghui.
Lu Chenghui spoke seriously, “Now that five Divine Travel Stage powerhouses have descended on White Cloud Mountain, it’s highly probable that they are not targeting Shangyuan Sect but sensing the emergence of some secret treasure. Brother Gou and Sister Changyue, take the disciples and leave White Cloud Mountain for the time being. We will devise a plan once things settle.” “Nonsense!” Gou Shengtian’s eyes widened. He snapped, “To abandon our sect is not a matter to be taken lightly. Moreover, if we leave with our disciples, what do you plan to do, Sect Master Senior Brother?”
Lu Chenghui looked upward at the five Divine Travel Stage powerhouses blocking the sky. He shook his head, chuckled, and stated, “You’re not wrong. We cannot simply abandon our sect just like that. You all leave for now. As for the sect…It shall be protected by me alone!”
“What?”
Everyone was taken aback, hurriedly trying to dissuade him. The disciples of The Sect all knelt together, expressing their willingness to live or die with the Sect.
Liu Ruoning bit her lip and said, “Ruoning is willing to join the elders and the Sect Leader to protect the Shangyuan Sect!”
“Nonsense!” Lu Chenghui coldly rebuked, “It’s not something we can protect just by saying so. Gou Shengtian, can you resist a single palm strike from a Divine Travel Stage powerhouse?”
“No!” Gou Shengtian answered succinctly, with a defiant look in his eye, Although I can’t, I refuse to go. Worst case scenario, these bastards send me straight to heaven with a slap!”
“You…” Lu Chenghui’s face turned red with rage!
The others also wore determined looks, as though they would rather die than leave.
With a bitter expression on his face, Lu Chenghui looked up at the violent energy fluctuations in the sky and was just about to speak when a startling yell came from midair.
“Where is Yang Zhen? Come out and meet your death!”
The thunderous question shook heaven and earth, the violent energy wave in the air was like a storm, blowing the late clouds rolling, the sound deafening. “Where is Yang Zhen? Come out and meet your death!”
A series of echoes reverberated through the entire White Cloud Mountain range. For a moment, all the practitioners on White Cloud Mountain were terrified, simultaneously looking up at the thin old man among the five Divine Travel Stage powerhouses in the sky!
Yang Zhen?” Upon hearing this name, Liu Ruoning’s breath hitched, and an expression of shock and horror flashed across her face: “It’s junior brother Yang Zhen, this is bad. Those Divine Travel Stage practitioners, they’re here for junior brother Yang Zhen!”
That renegade!” Elder Gou’s face turned dark and unsettled, an intense anger flashed across his face as he cursed: “That little bastard must have caused trouble outside and now has nowhere to turn. He must have thought of coming back to the Sect to hide, not realizing he’s brought a catastrophe upon us!” Liu Ruoning suddenly turned pale, her teeth clenched as she was about to speak when she heard Gou Shengtian cuss again: “Damn it, this little runt is hiding somewhere, why won’t he come home to discuss everything? He always acts recklessly, he truly deserves to be punished.”
Upon hearing Gou Shengtian blaming Yang Zhen for not returning directly to the Sect, a hint of joy flashed across Liu Ruoning’s face, followed by a wave of desolation.
So, Gou Shengtian wasn’t blaming Yang Zhen for bringing disaster upon the Sect, he was just angry about why Yang Zhen had not come straight home.
Home!
Yes, after all, this was Yang Zhen’s home, where he grew up!
Liu Ruoning clenched her teeth, her gaze fixed on the five Divine Travel Stage practitioners in the sky, her determination growing stronger.
Just as everyone was fraught with apprehension, a lazy, puzzled voice suddenly arose. The words spoken, however, shocked everyone.
Old man, it seems to me Sao Saint doesn’t know you, why do you want to kill me, are you sick?”
“Junior Brother Yang!” Liu Ruoning’s eyes flashed brightly as she looked around in all directions. However, she couldn’t spot Yang Zhen, only observing the stupefied expressions on the other fellow disciples.
Lu Chenghui was dumbfounded, murmured to himself: “Is Yang Zhen… cursing at someone in the Divine Travel Stage?”
Gou Shengtian wore a baffled expression and exclaimed in shock: “What on earth did Yang Zhen do during this time?”
Changyue sighed and shook his head: “We are too isolated.”
At that moment, the thin old man burst out laughing, pointing at Yang Zhen he shouted: “Dying by this old man’s hand, do I need a reason?”
“Oh!” Yang Zhen only responded with a single word.
Below the clouds, a chill ran down the spines of all the practitioners on the ground.
Damn, what does Yang mean by this “Oh”?
