Chapter 542: d.a.m.n You
Celestial Alliance.
After Lin Fan’s actions, the compet.i.tion that was held once every three years had ended so randomly without an explanation at all.
The disciples all felt really unhappy.
To those who were trying to win, they felt really bad. This was a good chance for them to perform but who knew that such an unexpected situation would occur?
Not only were they not worshipped by many, but they suffered many layers of blows.
They felt that it was really unbearable and even found it hard to breathe.
In the main hall…
Peng!
Xu Yuanming smacked the table in rage. The top quality table split into pieces. He couldn’t accept such a situation.
“How did he dare to do that?”
He was emotional and when he cursed, saliva splattered all around.
His image as a peak sect leader collapsed just like that.
Fortunately, there were no disciples around. Otherwise, if they saw their sect leader shouting like that without any care for image, naturally they would be disappointed.
“Sect Leaders, this concern the reputation of Celestial Alliance, of our honor and dignity. How can we allow him to do that? I suggest that we join arms and attack Martial Path Mountain.”
Xu Yuanming wanted to drag the many sect leaders into a battle squad.
He couldn’t accept this suffering.
Normally when such things happened to others, he would be really calm. After all, it didn’t concern him but now it did.
He was not strong enough alone to deal with Lin Fan.
So, his idea was really simple. He would combine everyone’s strength and win with numbers.
“Sect Leader Xu, calm down. You mustn’t lose your mind.” Qin Teng persuaded. Such a familiar scene made him think back to when Hundred Dao Sect was destroyed. He was as furious as Xu Yuanming.
But what happened then?
Consolation?
Calm down?
Rationality?
d.a.m.n you.
Who could understand the pain of a sect leader losing his sect?
Now, he was sure that Sect Leader Xu could understand him.
“Sect leader Qin, how can you ask me to calm down?” Xu Yuanming raged.
Qin Teng said, “Sect Leader Xu, when my sect was destroyed I felt the same way but all of you consoled me and let me calm down and accept the reality.”
Xu Yuanming looked at Qin Teng, “So, you are blaming me for not standing on your side? But you should know that the situation at that time was complicated, so how could we fall for his tricks?”
“Right, Sect Leader Xu is right. We must look at the big picture. But have you thought about how unusual Martial Path Mountain is now? They have many experts and even if we can wipe them out, we will suffer heavy losses.” Qin Teng didn’t argue with Xu Yuanming. He used the exact words that Celestial Alliance had once used on him and returned it to them.
Golden Spirit Valley Sect Leader nodded, “Sect leader Qin’s words make sense.”
Shortly after, sect leaders agreed.
Xu Yuanming’s eyes opened wide and he looked at everyone, “All of you are treating me like this?”
Qin Teng said, “Brother Xu, how can you say that? Our sects are united as one and we pity Guixian Island for what you faced.”
“Evil Alliance, Monster Alliance are all staring at us aggressively. As for Buddha Alliance, they aren’t reliable. Look at how w.a.n.gu Tower was destroyed, did they even do anything?”
“No, it was as if nothing happened at all.”
Qin Teng was prepared to argue with Xu Yuanming all the way.
What they meant was obvious.
I am just going to gloat. I am going to treat you the same way that you treated Hundred Dao Sect.
Xu Yuanming’s breathing became rushed.
He knew that it was near impossible to get their help.
“Hu!”
“Okay since that is the case, then I shall consider the big picture.” Xu Yuanming’s expression changed from one of rage to calm. It was as if nothing had happened at all.
His mood became much better.
Qin Teng looked at Xu Yuanming and warned himself to be careful about Xu Yuanming.
He could really suppress his emotions.
This type of people were the most dangerous. If he could hide from him he would. Who knew that one day he might be totally conned?
Instantly, Xu Yuanming’s rationality gained the praises of everyone.
However, it wasn’t worth anything to Xu Yuanming. At the same time, he remembered this hatred in his heart. One day, he would make all of them regret this.
“Sect Leader Xu, now that the compet.i.tion has ended, I will take my leave.”
Golden Spirit Valley Sect leader wanted to leave.
Thinking about it, he pitied Xu Yuanming.
So sad.
Lin Fan came alone and in front of all the Guixian Island disciples, he insulted Xu Yuanming and stole their treasures.
This was a heavy blow that no top sect could accept.
But this had nothing to do with them.
Guixian Island suffered heavy losses but that was Xu Yuanming’s concern. Their true thoughts were quite terrifying which was that they hoped that Guixian Island could become much weaker.
Xu Yuanming was expressionless. He cupped his fists and nodded his head.
Shortly after, one after another, the sect leaders left.
There was no point in staying here. They didn’t want to listen to Xu Yuanming grumble and the key was that they were afraid of Xu Yuanming raging and attacking them because of what happened to his sect.
There were fewer and fewer people in the main hall.
Slowly, only Xu Yuanming stood there. He seemed a little lonely and sad.
He moved towards the entrance to the hall and looked out.
There should have been a busy and exciting compet.i.tion but it ended just like that.
The Celestial Alliance disciples all left one after another.
Some sect disciples came here to eat and drink and were prepared to just watch the compet.i.tions. But what happened made them feel like staying here was not approapriate.
Guixian Island was attacked, so how shameless must one have been to stay here?
Xu Yuanming looked on with a stunned expression. No one knew what he was thinking about. A short while later, he turned around and headed back into the hall. Who knew whether or not he took the coldness and loneliness outside to heart?
But one could just say that.
Guixian Island had suffered heavy losses.
Very quickly, Lin Fan causing trouble at Celestial Alliance Guixian Island was spread to the outside world.
In such a world where infomation spread through the mouth, for all to know about this showed how influential this matter was.
Evil Alliance, Monster Alliance, Buddha Alliance.
When the three factions learned about this, they were shocked.
They didn’t expect Lin Fan to find trouble with a top sect.
But they never expected that Lin Fan would appear in the top disciple compet.i.tion held once every three years. Moreover, he insulted all the top sect leaders in front of all of them.
Anyone else who tried would definitely be killed.
When Guyuan learned about this, he frowned and felt really depressed.
Even if Lin Fan went to Guixian Island, to Guyuan, it felt like a slap to his face.
“This kid has already grown to such a stage. That is so terrifying.”
Guyuan had thought about killing Lin Fan but he knew that it was difficult.
Now that this matter had occurred, he lost his confidence.
He didn’t hesitate.
He headed to Guixian Island right away.
The four alliances had a small conflict but there was nothing big. There was still no progress in that till now.
Guyuan wanted to use them to remove the other sects in the four alliances but that wasn’t working out.
The plan was good and it would require several years to complete.
But the current situation didn’t give them that time.
An anomaly had appeared and if he didn’t get rid of it he would feel really uneasy.
Imperial Dynasty.
Zu Xiang led the army to occupy cities. At the same time, he recruited experts to deal with the Alliance members hidden in the cities.
Star Level Energy destroyed the border.
But the Alliance members in the cities didn’t retreat. Using this chance to take down those cities was the best choice.
“Listen to my orders. Try to capture them alive if you can.” Zu Xiang said.
He was really smart and guessed what happened to his majesty. He didn’t dare to ask and just captured them alive to give them to the emperor.
Whether they lived or died had nothing to do with him.
Imperial Dynasty had agreed with the Alliance that land and cities were given to the Imperial Dynasty. But slowly, the Alliance went against that and there was nothing they could do. This infuriated everyone in the Imperial Dynasty.
But the Alliance was strong.
With the Imperial Dynasty’s current situation, how could they fight them? They could only slowly ama.s.s strength and wait for their chance.
Now, that chance was here.
It was time for them to explode.
Alliance Headquarters.
The meeting hall was silent and the atmosphere here was really suppressed.
There was only the commander and Xiang Yuntian in the giant meeting hall.
“You want to run for commander position?” The commander looked at Xiang Yuntian. Normal people couldn’t handle this gaze but Xiang Yuntian, who had no cultivation, was really calm. At the same time, he stared back.
“Right, I want to partic.i.p.ate in the election for commander.” Xiang Yuntian said.
The commander was expressionless and his voice turned cold, “You should know what you are doing. You want to push the Alliance into the abyss? Just do your research. Some things are far above you. Do you think you can remain in your position?”
Xiang Yuntian laughed, “Tsk, what is the point in saying all of this? Whether or not I can lead the Alliance to a brighter future isn’t said but done. I have researched my entire life and changed the Alliance way of life. If you act like you haven’t seen all that, then there is nothing I can do.”
The commander scoffed, “You changed the lives of normal people but we need strength outside. Without it, even if the people have such good lives, it is useless.”
“Keke, strength? Who says I have no strength? Star Level Energy proves everything, that all experts are just paper tigers in front of it.” Xiang Yuntian retorted.
The commander took in a deep breath. Who knew that in the end, such a thing would happen?
“The colleges won’t agree.”
Xiang Yuntian smiled, “It doesn’t matter. The people and the research department will support me. They need a new future and not a commander like you that always brings them new problems.”
“There is nothing more to say. You can’t convince me. I will solve all the problems that you left for me the moment I become commander.”
“You just need to watch me do it.”
The moment he said this, Xiang Yuntian stopped talking.
He just stood up and left.
He was already prepared.
He had to acquire the position of commander.
