Chapter 533: Chapter 528: The Death of Lord Wind

"Sect Master Qin, long time no see."

Sima Yan and the others landed, and then they looked at Qin Tian with eyes that were somewhat mocking.

"What a daunting spirit you have, Sect Master Qin!"

Wuchang also let out a cold smirk at the corner of his mouth—there was no doubt that the Xuantian Sect had lost its momentum, and the severely injured Qin Tian was no threat in his eyes.

"Sect Masters, bringing so many people to grace us with your presence today, may I ask what brings you here?"

Qin Tian faced the danger unflustered, speaking in an indifferent tone.

"Heh heh, Qin Tian, after all this, do you still want to stall for time? Don’t you know whom you’re waiting for to come to your aid? Who would dare to assist your Xuantian Sect now?"

A cold smile spread across Wuchang’s face.

"Sect Master Qin, we’re acquainted, and I truly do not wish to see the Xuantian Sect drenched in blood. How about this—you lead everyone to surrender, and we can save ourselves the trouble."

Not far away, under Sima Yan’s instruction, the Sect Leader of Shadow Poison Sect suggested this with a seemingly considerate smile.

"Absurd!"

Before Qin Tian could speak, the Second Elder behind him snapped. The Shadow Poison Sect Leader, who had always looked up to the Xuantian Sect, instantly aligned himself with another side now that the sect was in decline.

"I have no wish to waste more words. If you want to destroy my Xuantian Sect, be prepared to pay the price."

Qin Tian knew that further delay was useless. It appeared he could only make a last stand.

"Why resist stubbornly? As far as I know, the Xuantian Sect is already beset with troubles from within and without; its doom is certain. Even your two Supreme Elders are too preoccupied to lift a finger. If not now, when will you surrender, Qin Tian?" At that moment, from behind Sima Yan and Wuchang, several figures with a robust aura stepped forward, each with the Cultivation of a Half-Saint.

Four individuals in total, all Supreme Elders from the two major forces.

Green Lotus Half-Saint, Tianxing Half-Saint, Half-Saint Black Flood Dragon, White Dragon Half-Saint.

"Sorry, my Xuantian Sect doesn’t cater to those who fear death."

Qin Tian’s gaze sharpened, aware of the grave situation, but he took a deep breath and then spoke in a deep voice.

"Oh? ’Eat a buffet or be fined with liquor,’ I really want to see how costly this will be. Supreme Elders, no need for further talk, for those who resist, there’s only one word—kill."

A dismissive sneer surfaced on Wuchang’s face, as if he regarded Qin Tian’s dire words with utter contempt.

In response, the four nodded their heads. Since Qin Tian refused to surrender, they had no choice but to take action.

"Wait."

Suddenly, a dissenting voice rang out from the crowd of Xuantian Sect, and everyone turned to look—it was Lord Wind.

"I, from the Gentleman Sect, am willing to surrender, but you must promise me that once the Xuantian Sect is destroyed, I will be appointed as the Sect Master," said Lord Wind, a glint flashing in his eyes.

"Lord Wind, what are you doing!"

As Lord Wind’s words spread, a great commotion ensued within the Xuantian Sect. Many Elders who had supported the Gentleman Sect were visibly shaken and scorned Lord Wind in anger. They were shocked that Lord Wind, whom they had supported for so many years, would betray the Sect at this critical junction.

"What am I doing?"

A twisted smile crossed Lord Wind’s face. "What do you think I should do? You bunch of sanctimonious old fools! That Ye Xuan, just a recently joined junior, was appointed as Vice Sect Master by you, and what about me? I’ve given so much to the Xuantian Sect, and for what? Nothing! Now you expect me to go down with the ship?"

"Look at yourselves, the esteemed Vice Sect Master Ye you prize so highly is probably hiding in some corner, afraid to show his face! How could I, Lord Wind, with a promising future, throw away my life here?" Not a trace of regret could be seen on Lord Wind’s face.

"That’s right, Brother Feng is correct. The Sect’s actions have truly disheartened us senior disciples. We have no reason to sacrifice ourselves for such a Sect."

"We are willing to follow Brother Feng."

Chu Kuang, Yang Wei, and others also made their position clear, showing their support for Lord Wind.

"Haha, very good, I didn’t expect Xuantian Sect to have a few insightful disciples like you. Don’t worry, after we destroy Xuantian Sect, you will be its new Sect Leader. Now, who else will surrender? Lay down your weapons and you can spare yourselves a death sentence. Not only that, but you’ll also be able to become, like Brother Feng, a pillar of the new Xuantian Sect."

Sima Yan knew that Lord Wind was one of the three great leaders among the Xuantian Sect disciples, and he was very aware of the latter’s influence. With leaders from the Gentleman Sect like Chu Kuang and Yang Wei surrendering, this was a good omen.

As expected, after Sima Yan finished speaking, many Xuantian Sect disciples began to waver, especially those from the Gentleman Sect. Seeing Lord Wind leading the way and three of the Six Gentlemen surrendering all at once, many were left in troubled thoughts.

"This bastard!"

Fei Yue, Xue Lingzi, and the others also sank into deep frowns. Although they usually disliked Lord Wind, that was only personal dislike; now Lord Wind had betrayed the Sect, which was entirely different.

"Gentlemen of the Gentleman Sect, if you miss this opportunity, you won’t have another chance at life," Lord Wind said with a smile.

"Traitor, you deserve to die!"

Just as his voice fell, suddenly, a black flame burst forth at an unbelievably fast speed, fiercely attacking Lord Wind.

This clump of black fire appeared so abruptly that, in an instant, it enveloped Lord Wind in its grasp, catching everyone slightly off guard.

"No!"

Before Lord Wind could react, he was engulfed by the black flames, and the next moment, an arrow as if made from the radiant light of stars swiftly pierced through the sky. It penetrated his heart in the blink of an eye as the black flames wrapped around him.

With an expression of unwillingness on his face, Lord Wind’s body thunderously fell to the ground, burnt to a crisp and with eyes still wide open in death.

"Brother Feng!"

Seeing the scene of Lord Wind being killed instantly, Chu Kuang and Yang Wei were also shocked and dismayed. In their field of view, two aged figures appeared successively—it was none other than Tianxing Half-Saint and Half-Saint Black Flame.

"Supreme Elders!"

Seeing the emergence of these two figures, everyone from Xuantian Sect was visibly shaken, and their spirits immediately lifted. Many disciples who were hesitating in their hearts now felt reassured; the two Supreme Elders were the strongest in Xuantian Sect and the greatest support for their Sect’s standing in the Yunlan Domain.

"Tianxing, Black Flame, Lord Wind may have betrayed us, but he was still one of Xuantian Sect’s proud disciples and a top-tier genius. How could you bear to deal him such a ruthless hand?"

Lord Wind was almost instantly killed, and even though Sima Yan and the others wanted to rescue him, they were too slow to act. Their expression darkened slightly—Lord Wind’s value was not insignificant, and it was a pity to see him killed just like that.

"Hmph, a traitorous disciple deserves to die," Half-Saint Black Flame said expressionlessly, with a hint of indifference flashing in his eyes.

"Two Supreme Elders, now that you are here, what about the situation at the back mountain..." Qin Tian looked at Tianxing Half-Saint and Half-Saint Black Flame with some confusion. He knew how troublesome the seal on the back mountain was. If both Supreme Elders had left, what would happen to the back mountain?

"The matters of the back mountain have already been dealt with."

Tianxing Half-Saint waved his hand. "Right now, the matter at hand is what’s most pressing."

"Dealt with?"

Qin Tian was taken aback, then his face showed an expression of disbelief. They were dealing with a Holy Realm Sky Demon sealed there. It was resolved? Could the two Supreme Elders really possess such formidable power?

"Hehe, it seems you’ve already dealt with your internal troubles, huh?"

Seemingly overhearing the conversation of Xuantian Sect, Green Lotus Half-Saint also spoke from the side of Daluo Heavenly Palace and Holy Demon Cave Heaven, a hint of surprise in his eyes, which quickly faded, "But even so, Xuantian Sect is still beyond salvation. The two of you are not enough to protect your sect."

"Is that so? If you wish to destroy Xuantian Sect, I’m afraid you’ll have to pay a heavy price."

Tianxing Half-Saint and Half-Saint Black Flame already had a plan in mind. Their current objective was to delay, to buy enough time for Ye Xuan and Shen Luo, who were in the back mountain, focusing on recovering their strength.

"Elders and disciples, form the array to face the enemy!"

Under the guidance of the two Supreme Elders, many elders and disciples of Xuantian Sect also began to mobilize their True Yuan, forming the last defensive array.

"Truly stubborn to the end, then die."

Killing intent surged in the eyes of the four Half-Saints; they had limited patience. While it would be ideal to persuade Tianxing Half-Saint and Half-Saint Black Flame to surrender, they also knew it would not be easy, so they resorted to force.

Vvvvvv!

The four Half-Saints acted almost simultaneously, a strong fluctuation suddenly emanating from their bodies, before attacking Xuantian Sect’s people in different ways and with thunderous force.

Boom boom boom!

The entire central plaza was shaking, rocks tumbled down, and the white jade sculptures on the plaza began to crack.

This commotion was even sensed by Ye Xuan, who was at the back mountain.

"It seems the fight has started, hey, Shen Luo, are you ready yet? They won’t be able to hold on for long," Ye Xuan said as he stood up and turned his gaze to Shen Luo next to him. At that moment, she was radiating a pure Heavenly Demon Qi, and behind her, there was a swirling black hole-like energy vortex, slowly revolving as it absorbed a startling amount of energy.

"Just a little more. If I can’t even recover three tenths of my strength, my presence would not change the situation."

Shen Luo merely opened her eyes slightly, glanced at Ye Xuan, and then looked away, closing her eyes again.

"Then I’ll have to buy you some more time. You’d better hurry," Ye Xuan said as he flipped his palm and, with a flash of lightning, the Thunder Brilliance Bow appeared in his hand. Then, with a quick flash, he disappeared from the spot.
