Chapter 2146: 902, get lost!
“`
By now, the entire All-Encompassing Sword Sect had learned of the return of the disciples from Moon-Encompassing Peak.
The fall of Peak Master Guo Hua from Moon-Encompassing Peak and the disciples’ intentions to place Guo Hua’s Sword Bone in the Sword Nurturing Hut was known to all.
Guo Hua was one of the top sword dao experts in the All-Encompassing Sword Sect, with cultivation abilities reaching half-step into the Dao Extinguishing Realm.
If Guo Hua had not been accused of betraying the sect, this would be a time for the entire All-Encompassing Sword Sect to welcome the Sword Bone and clad it in white as it was taken to the Sword Nurturing Hut.
But under the current circumstances, if Guo Hua’s Sword Bone were to be placed into the Sword Nurturing Hut, it would mean that all previous charges against Guo Hua were a stain on his name.
The conviction of Guo Hua was all false?
The pursuit to kill Guo Hua was all a frame-up?
If Guo Hua’s Sword Bone were to be entered into the Sword Nurturing Hut, there must be someone within the sect who would need to apologize.
Guo Hua had died from serious injuries sustained as an Elder of the Sword Nurturing Hut, so how should this matter be dealt with?
For a moment, the entire All-Encompassing Sword Sect did not know how to respond.
Everyone was waiting for the actions of the main peak, the All-Encompassing Peak.
“Could today be the day when my All-Encompassing Sword Sect begins to crumble?” gazing at the distant mountains, someone murmured sorrowfully.
“After today, either All-Encompassing Peak will have to apologize, or the lineage of Moon-Encompassing Peak will end,” a white-bearded elder said, shaking his head regretfully, “Regardless, the All-Encompassing Sword Sect will suffer a great loss of strength.”
Not only the people of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect were watching at this time, but also many cultivators from afar were observing.
If the All-Encompassing Sword Sect fell apart today, it would be a time for the surrounding forces to divide up their territory!
“Dong—”
“Dong—”
“Dong—”
On All-Encompassing Peak, the sound of the bell summoning the elders of each peak rang out.
What could they be gathering the elders for at such a time?
All disciples of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect looked up towards the direction of the main peak.
Brilliant streaks of sword light flew by.
To be an elder of the sect, one had to be at least at the peak of the Entering Dao Realm, and some even in the Dao Breaking Realm.
There were over thirty such powerful cultivators with these cultivation levels within the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.
The overall strength of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect ranked within the top five within tens of thousands of miles.
Moments later, over twenty streaks of sword light led the way, as more than a hundred silhouettes performed the Flying Sword Technique and glided away.
“That’s the direction of Moon-Encompassing Peak!”
“They are headed to Moon-Encompassing Peak!”
A series of low exclamations rose up.
What were they going to do at Moon-Encompassing Peak?
The answer was revealed quickly.
Above Moon-Encompassing Peak, the sound of clashing swords began.
In less than the time it takes for half a pot of tea to steep, the remaining two Dao-Entering Realm elders of Moon-Encompassing Peak had been captured. The several Dao-Seeking Realm officials and hundreds of Initial Knowing Realm disciples were all restrained and imprisoned.
Since the disciples of Moon-Encompassing Peak dared to defy the sect’s orders, the entire peak’s guilt was pronounced!
After capturing the elder’s disciples from Moon-Encompassing Peak, more than twenty elders led the way as everyone descended the mountain in great strides to meet with Zhang Mingyuan and others from Moon-Encompassing Peak who were already five hundred miles away.
“The Sect Master has decreed, capture the traitorous disciples of Moon-Encompassing Peak, Guo Hua’s Sword Bone must not enter the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.”
“The Sect Master has decreed, a reward of a thousand pieces of Lower-Grade Pantian Stone for the capture of the traitorous disciples, dead or alive.”
Orders echoed out one after another.
The All-Encompassing Sword Sect’s handling of Moon-Encompassing Peak could be described as resolute.
Without the slightest hesitation or delay, they pronounced the guilt and restrained all the disciples from Moon-Encompassing Peak.
“The Sect Master of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect Xia Mingtang is not dead yet.” Far across the mountains, a purple-robed elder spoke with a light chuckle.
“For such a major event, only Xia Mingtang can be the decision-maker. Xia Yunshang does not have the same presence,” said another big man in black robes carrying a sword, with a look of disdain on his face.
Xia Mingtang was the leader of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect, but after initially entering the Dao Extinguishing Realm, he could not make any further progress, and his lifespan was almost depleted, soon to collapse.
His son, Xia Yunshang, although his cultivation had also reached the Breakthrough Path realm and he controlled All-Encompassing Peak, he was far behind in terms of combat strength and decision-making courage.
“Not bad, this incident with Moon-Encompassing Peak has been dealt with, though it has resulted in a significant loss of strength for the entire All-Encompassing Sword Sect. Fortunately, no chaos arose,” someone sighed with relief on top of one of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect’s peaks.
“Indeed, if the disciples of Moon-Encompassing Peak had stormed the gate, it would have been a great blow to the morale of the entire All-Encompassing Sword Sect,” another elder nodded in agreement, a look of helplessness on his face, “It’s just that after today, the relationship between the peaks and All-Encompassing Peak can’t possibly go back to how it was before, even the Sword Nurturing Hut… ”
When even a peak master can be easily executed and the once powerful Moon-Encompassing Peak can be easily condemned and its lineage cut off, who wouldn’t fear the tyranny of All-Encompassing Peak?
A sect that has authority but lacks virtue will ultimately lose its followers’ hearts.
From now on, the peak masters and elders of other peaks might not even be willing to go to the Sword Nurturing Hut.
“`
“If I were Zhang Mingyuan, what choice would I make right now?” whispered a disciple within the All-Encompassing Sword Sect.
I don’t know.
At this moment, three figures appeared in front of the disciples of the Moon-Encompassing Peak led by Han Muye, blocking their way.
Three large men in dark blue martial arts robes stood robustly.
“Zhang Mingyuan, the All-Encompassing Sword Sect has already imprisoned all the disciples of the Moon-Encompassing Peak, and you have also been charged with the crime of treason against the sect,” they said.
“Come with us, our Hao Tie Dao Sect is where you belong.”
The speaker, with a scar across his face, had eyes filled with arrogance.
The two people beside him wore faint smiles on their faces as well.
Did Zhang Mingyuan and his companions have any choice left?
Hearing themselves accused of betraying their sect, whether it was Zhang Mingyuan or those like Yu Shaogang standing behind him, all showed expressions of sorrow and anger.
And also a touch of despair.
In such a situation, they feared they wouldn’t even be able to reach the gates of the All-Encompassing Sword Sect, right?
Could they still bring back their master’s sword bones to the Sword Nurturing Hut?
Their gazes involuntarily turned towards Han Muye, who stood at the forefront.
Han Muye’s expression remained unchanged as he spoke lightly.
“Scram.”
Scram!
Just this one word.
That was his attitude!
Those three men from the Hao Tie Dao Sect were first startled, then angry, and finally, their fury turned into a hideous laugh.
Their blood essence surged, and the power of the Seeking Dao Realm rose like a tide in them.
“If we can take you with us, then we’ll do it just to spite the All-Encompassing Sword Sect,” they said.
“Since you’re unwilling to go, then we’ll just have to kill you and exchange your bodies for a thousand lower-grade Pantheon Stones.”
The leading large man laughed loudly as he moved, crossing ten yards in a stride, and threw a punch at Han Muye.
The body cultivators of the Great Pantheon Plane had stable blood essence and fierce boxing methods.
The power of this punch could collapse half a star outside of the Great Pantheon Plane.
“Clang——”
The sound of the three-foot-long sword being unsheathed carried a lingering tone.
Han Muye slowly drew the sword in his hand, then swept the sword edge forward.
Zhang Mingyuan could see clearly that this was the “Cloudy Smoke All Around” move from the Jade Void Swordsmanship.
Guo Hua had once explained to Zhang Mingyuan that with this sword move, at least twelve sword strikes were stabbed out at once, with only one being the real attack and all the others feints.
Between the real and the feint, it demanded caution.
But this sword move couldn’t break the protective Gang Qi of a Dao-Seeking Realm body cultivator, it could only serve as a transition among the variable moves.
The sword edge trembled lightly, accompanied by a ringing “zing.”
What had been a clear blade now split into dozens of images, too fast to be discerned.
The large man who punched at Han Muye didn’t take this sword seriously either.
However, he grinned viciously, undeterred, his fist covered in a pale golden halo, continuing to smash towards Han Muye.
Such illusory sword light simply couldn’t penetrate his protective body Gang Qi.
Sword cultivators, nine out of ten are all for show.
“Stab——”
The sound of the long sword piercing flesh and grinding against golden bones echoed.
The large man who punched widened his eyes in shock, and his throat made a “gurgle” sound.
Han Muye’s sword had pierced twelve bloody holes through his body.
“”Every sword in ‘Cloudy Smoke All Around’ is a real strike…” Zhang Mingyuan exclaimed with widened eyes, murmuring to himself.
Han Muye slowly withdrew his sword, its edge now covered in blood.
His sword was now pointed at the remaining two men from the Hao Tie Dao Sect.
The two of them turned pale, trembling with fear.
“You, you dare to kill a member of the Hao Tie Dao Sect, are you, are you mad…”
