Chapter 704: Chapter 704: Raising an Army to Demand Justice
Their Central Domain has always been stronger than the Eastern Domain.
Now, these disciples from the ten great sects of the Central Domain are actually lowering themselves to make connections with a disciple from a sect in the Eastern Domain, how can they accept this?
They are losing not just their own face, but also the face of their sects!
If this matter is not resolved, it is estimated that upon returning to their sects, they will also be punished.
Even though they are the geniuses of their respective sects!
Since when has the Central Domain ever had to ingratiate themselves with the Eastern Domain?
Even if the Eastern Domain disciples beg to see them, they might not necessarily agree to meet!
Within a mansion.
Qin Wutian, Lai Yunlong, Qi Zhen, Nangong Ya, Fang Ye, Su Mubai, Shi Rui, and Chen Gong gathered here.
"This matter, we must seek an explanation!"
"Right! The dignity of our ten great sects cannot be lost!"
"We must severely punish Ling Chen and his companions!"
"Even for the Harmonization Grass, we must take action!"
"Yes, treasures like Harmonization Grass cannot fall into the hands of outsiders!"
Everyone was indignant and expressed their stance!
First, for the sake of their sects and their own pride, and second, for the treasures in Ling Chen’s possession, mainly the Harmonization Grass!
"Let’s go now! Ling Chen did not consume the Emperor Extreme Pill a few days ago! It’s absolutely impossible for Ling Chen and the others to consume the Harmonization Grass! That Emperor Extreme Pill, if given to Ling Chen, would be a waste! If we delay any longer, this news will probably spread far and wide, and by that time, our loss of face will be even greater!"
Shi Rui said.
He was the most anxious, afraid that Ling Chen would consume the Emperor Extreme Pill.
Among the eight of them, only he and Chen Gong had not taken it.
And, his cultivation was higher than Chen Gong’s; after dealing with Ling Chen, he was the most qualified to consume the Emperor Extreme Pill.
As for the Harmonization Grass, if one has not mastered the six levels of Martial Arts Realm, consuming it would be a waste.
The Harmonization Grass is just an aid to integrate the six levels of Martial Arts Realm into the Dao.
However, it can’t help in comprehending the Martial Arts Realm.
Everyone looked at Qin Wutian in unison.
Among them, Qin Wutian was the strongest!
Moreover, Qingyun Sword Sect is the ruler of the Central Domain!
Therefore, they had to seek Qin Wutian’s opinion.
"Let’s go!"
Qin Wutian pondered for a moment before making a decision.
He also coveted the Harmonization Grass!
Although he had only mastered the fifth level of Sword Intent, he was already very close to the sixth level.
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, the eight geniuses immediately flew toward the place where Ling Chen and his companions were staying.
And not far behind them followed the Protectors from their respective sects designated to protect these geniuses!
These people were at least at the fourth level of the World Realm in their cultivation!
The higher ones had even reached the fifth level!
The Protectors would not intervene in matters between geniuses.
They would only take action if the geniuses encountered danger.
However, in their eyes, Ling Chen and his companions were simply not a match for the geniuses of their sects!
Merely the first level of the World Realm!
They could be wiped out with a flick of a finger!
The movements of the eight geniuses immediately caught the attention of countless people.
Numerous people followed them.
At this time, the news of Ling Chen’s true identity was also gradually spreading.
After all, there were quite a few cultivators from the Eastern Domain.
Many people were laughing so hard they clutched their bellies.
The towering disciples of the ten great sects of the Central Domain lowered their status to make connections with Ling Chen, only to find out that the latter came from a minor sect in the Eastern Domain!
Yes, a minor sect!
Among all the sects in the Eastern Domain, only the Burning Flame Sect had a bit of reputation.
Other sects were virtually unheard of!
This almost threw away the face of the ten great sects of the Central Domain.
"What’s going on?"
Seeing the eight geniuses brimming with murderous intent, many people, although unaware of what had happened, immediately followed.
In a short time, the cultivators of Yan City were all stirred up by the news.
"Father, Ling Chen is not from a Hidden Sect, but a disciple of the Eastern Domain Star Pavilion!"
Yan Huo rushed in anxiously, reporting to Lord Yan.
"I’m already aware!"
Lord Yan’s complexion wasn’t looking good.
He had thought that with the Harmonization Fruit, he could woo a genius from a Hidden Sect.
Who knew it would turn out to be the weakest person from the Eastern Domain?
"What should we do?"
Yan Huo asked.
Lord Yan replied with a bitter smile, "What else can we do? Blame it on the Yan Family’s bad luck."
Now that Ling Chen’s identity had been exposed, the eight talents like Qin Wutian surely couldn’t sit still.
Not to mention for the sake of the face of the top ten sects, just the Harmonization Fruit alone was enough to compel these eight talents to take action.
Although he was at the fifth level of the World Realm, he did not dare to lay hands on the disciples of the top ten sects.
There was a rule in the Central Region: matters of the younger generation should be settled by themselves, and the older generation must not interfere!
"Forget it, let’s go have a look!"
Both Lord Yan and Yan Huo left the City Lord Mansion and flew towards the inn where Ling Chen was staying.
Feiyun Inn.
Eight figures stood aloft in the air.
"Ling Chen of Star Pavilion, come out!"
A voice as thunderous as a sudden explosion rang out.
It was none other than Qin Wutian who spoke.
This voice, bolstered by Spiritual Power, spread throughout half of Yan City.
The manager of Feiyun Inn trembled, hurriedly ran out of the inn, and upon laying eyes on the eight talents, he immediately forced a wry smile.
"Young Master Qin, what can I do for you?"
The manager greeted respectfully.
"It’s none of your business, get lost!"
Qin Wutian snorted coldly.
"Yes."
The manager didn’t dare to offend Qin Wutian.
Even if the owner of the inn was stronger than these talents, he didn’t dare show the slightest disrespect.
For behind these people were the bigwigs who controlled the Central Region!
"Hm?"
Ling Chen, who was cultivating, frowned and with a swift motion jumped out from the window.
"Qin Wutian?"
Ling Chen was startled when he saw the eight people opposite him looking murderous.
Had he offended these people in any way?
Moreover, just a few days ago, this group had invited him for a meal!
These people – Ling Chen had been concentrating on his cultivation in the inn all this time.
He was preparing to further stabilize his cultivation before consuming the Harmonization Fruit!
He was unaware of the events happening outside.
His gaze swept towards the sky, noticing dense crowds of figures spread around.
"What matter?"
Ling Chen demanded coldly.
Since the other party had told him to roll out, he naturally wasn’t in any good mood.
"Ling Chen, don’t you realize your crime?"
Shi Rui rebuked in a cold voice.
"What crime have I committed?"
Ling Chen’s eyes chilled.
These people were disrupting his cultivation, and he hadn’t even taken them to task for it yet!
And now, they were the ones questioning him?
"Hmph!"
Shi Rui spoke coldly: "You pretended to be a disciple from a Hidden Sect and mocked us. What do you think your crime is?"
No matter what, they pinned a big hat on him first.
They certainly wouldn’t admit that they had entertained Ling Chen because they thought he was a disciple from a Hidden Sect.
Wouldn’t that be a total loss of face for the ten big sects?
But to say that Ling Chen was posing as a disciple from a Hidden Sect, then their behavior could be excused!
Some even felt it was justified!
After all, the scene of the Heavenly Destiny Sect emerging a hundred years ago was still vividly remembered as if it were yesterday!
"Just as I thought! How could these unknown fellows receive hospitality from Young Master Qin and the others? So that’s the reason!"
"Exactly! Are Hidden Sects so common? He was clearly pretending to carry borrowed authority!"
"Haha! He’s brought destruction upon himself, pretending to be a disciple from a Hidden Sect and deceiving the top ten sects. He’s simply courting death!"
...
The crowd buzzed with discussion.
