Chapter 1328: Hidden Rat Makes A Move
Xiang Shaoyun used his gift of instincts and immediately saw through the two attacks. He first approached the Sovereign on the left, barely dodging the Sovereign"s attack. He then redirected the attack to the other Sovereign, forcing the two Sovereigns" attacks to collide.
The two Sovereigns hurriedly reduced the strength behind their attacks in panic. Xiang Shaoyun took the chance to send several kicks out, giving the two a beating.
With Xiang Shaoyun"s speed, which not even peak Sovereigns could compare to, none of them could avoid his attacks. All three of the peak Sovereigns were defeated. Everyone sank into silence. With Xiang Shaoyun"s strength, was there anyone in the Brightflower Chamber who could stop him?
"Activate the formation and kill him!" Yuan Lingshao shouted.
"You really want me to start a slaughter here?" Xiang Shaoyun roared murderously.
He had been holding himself and hadn"t killed anyone. If they really decided to use their formation, he would start killing.
"Activate the formation!" shouted a different person.
Xiang Shaoyun wasn"t a Brightflower Chamber member. By creating trouble here, he was simply insulting them. They would lose all their prestige if they didn"t kill him.
"Stop!" Liu Yanran"s voice finally rang out.
Liu Yanran hurried over with her 17 sisters. Leading the 18 beauties were two other people, one man and one woman. Both of them were beyond the Soul Foundation Realm. The two did not look young. One was a first-stage Heaven Battling Realm cultivator, while the other was a peak pseudo-Saint. These two were the chamber"s current strongest experts.
The man was known as Grand Uncle Yue, while the woman was known as Princess Zhuang. Collectively, the two were known as Grand Uncle Princess. During their younger years, they were relatively well-known. But as they hadn"t been able to progress their cultivation for a very long time, they could only conceal themselves and become the Brightflower Chamber"s guardians.
Seeing how all their elders had been defeated, the two had no choice but to personally take charge. As the previous chamber master"s direct disciple, Liu Yanran originally had the highest chance of becoming the next chamber master. However, the two guardians made it impossible for her to inherit the position. With Liu Yanran"s appearance, Xiang Shaoyun stopped attacking. The Brightflower Chamber members also stopped.
"Lords, you have arrived just in time. That kid injured our people. He must be a spy from other organizations. We need to arrest him!" pleaded a Sovereign.
"Elders, there"s no rush. He is Xiang Shaoyun, the young sect master of our ally, the Ziling Sect. The two women are his wives. They are our honored guests. There must be a misunderstanding," Liu Yanran explained before the two elders could say anything.
Everyone was stunned. How would they have known that Xiang Shaoyun was the young sect master of their new ally? They couldn"t understand why he was so strong.
"As our ally, you actually harmed our people? This is unforgivable!" said Princess Zhuang.
"That"s right. As allies, we should have coexisted peacefully. Since this young sect master is behaving like this is his home, there is a need to reconsider the alliance. Also, the Ziling Sect needs to compensate us for our losses," said Grand Uncle Yue.
Their words were thought-provoking.
Liu Yanran hurriedly said, "Lords, we can"t do that. I believe Young Master Xiang has his reasons. We need to first understand the situation."
"Yanran, are you siding with outsiders?" questioned Princess Zhuang.
Liu Yanran explained, "No, why would I side with outsiders? However—"
Grand Uncle Yue interrupted her before she could finish, "There"s no need. We need this young sect master to compensate us for what he did today."
"That"s right. He must compensate us. Otherwise, he can forget about leaving the Brightflower Chamber," Yuan Lingshao took the chance to further fan the flame.
With him taking the lead, more and more people shouted, demanding compensation.
"They are completely going overboard," Tuoba Wan"er was furious.
"Looks like we had picked the wrong ally," said Gong Qinyin in a disappointed manner.
"Hahahaha!" Xiang Shaoyun howled with laughter, completely viewing the Brightflower Chamber with disregard.
"Kid, what are you laughing about? Are you courting death?" questioned someone.
"Today, I personally experienced the Brightflower Chamber"s hospitality. Since you want compensation, I"ll give you something," roared Xiang Shaoyun as he fully released his aura. With a stomp of his feet, a ma.s.sive crater appeared below him with a loud rumble, causing everyone around him to jump in fright.
His stomp was like a type of provocation. Xiang Shaoyun was tired of trying to speak to them.
"Kid, you"re seeking death!" Princess Zhuang seemed to have a bad temper. When he saw Xiang Shaoyun"s behavior, she roared furiously and tried to deliver a slap to Xiang Shaoyun"s face.
Just as the slap was about to land, s.p.a.ce warped. A sword suddenly appeared and shot out like a viper.
"Princess, watch out!" Grand Uncle Yue felt a sense of crisis and hurriedly cried out in alarm. Unfortunately, it was too late for him to help.
Pu!
"Ahhh!"
Princess Zhuang"s arm was severed, and her blood sprayed out like a fountain. Her wail alarmed everyone present.
"b.a.s.t.a.r.d!!" Grand Uncle Yue roared and threw a punch at the attacker.
When a Saint was furious, rivers of blood would usually flow. Alas, Grand Uncle Yue was merely a Saint past his prime. Before a third-stage Saint like Hidden Rat, he was worthless. Moving like the wind, Hidden Rat moved away before sweeping his sword forth. Grand Uncle Yue only felt a sharp pain on his arm before his arm was separated from his body.
After cutting the two arms off, Hidden Rat stopped and stood respectfully beside Xiang Shaoyun. All the Brightflower Chamber members paled. As for Yuan Lingshao, he collapsed weakly onto the ground in fear. Just what kind of monster had he provoked?
