<h1text-align:" center"=""><spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Chapter 1080: Courage of the Qingyuan Sect

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As soon as Su Jingzhen's words fell, the scene immediately fell silent. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Except for Qiu Yaoyao and Shengana, who remained calm, everyone else, including Sect Leader Wang Zhong of the Qingyuan Sect, wore expressions of disbelief.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">A Body Cultivator, and one only at the Saint level of Body Cultivation, how could he dare to say such things?

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Wang Zhong felt a tingle on his scalp. The situation had completely escalated. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even if he were to ask the three disciples from the Qingyuan Sect to withdraw, the four from the Divine Sword Sect would likely not let the matter rest.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"I knew this trial wouldn't go smoothly. It wouldn't be worthy of his experience if there weren't some twists and turns. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">However, this so-called Divine Sword Sect is in for some bad luck now that they've crossed paths with him."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Li Lingxi, who hadn't participated, watched from the shadows with Ning Yao. Seeing Su Jingzhen finally lose his patience, she couldn't help but smile.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Someone who dared to so brazenly provoke the Five Element Tribulation wouldn't be afraid of a second-tier power in the Emperor's Realm. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">If Su Jingzhen had chosen to swallow his anger, Li Lingxi would have been surprised.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"What? Can't the mighty Qingyuan Sect find four Spirit Immortal level juniors? If that's the case, then the number of recommended slots for the Qingyuan Sect will be reduced to six this time."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As Su Jingzhen spoke, the aura of a Flesh Body Sainthood erupted from his body, instantly locking onto the four from the Divine Sword Sect.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The four, led by the blue-robed youth, were both angry and amused. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Their auras also sharpened abruptly. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Surprisingly, all four of them had reached the early Mystic Immortal Realm.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Upon noticing this, Su Jingzhen's brow furrowed slightly. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He was indeed a bit surprised. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">During the trial in the Divine Shepherd Realm, most of the teams from the top ten sects in the Emperor's Realm were only at the Spirit Immortal level, and only a dozen or so were at the Mystic Immortal level.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As if sensing Su Jingzhen's confusion, Bai Suzhen's voice, which had been silent for a while, rang in his ears.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"These guys are all hundreds of years old, almost a thousand years old. The participants in the Divine Shepherd Realm's trial were only about a hundred years old-truly elite geniuses. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">These guys are incomparable to those in the Divine Shepherd Realm Trial. Even if they were given another thousand years, it would be a miracle if they could advance a few small realms."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Bai Suzhen's timely explanation cleared Su Jingzhen's doubts. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">She then added, "Even though these guys have garbage potential, their current cultivation level is still there. Moreover, since they have been stuck at this level for many years, their martial prowess is certainly not weak. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">I can only help you at critical moments while we're in Sword Land. You know the reason, so this time you'll have to rely mostly on yourself."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen had unconsciously relied on Bai Suzhen in many situations before. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Now, she was reminding him of the limitations. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Previously, Su Jingzhen had been so focused on Zhang Xiu that he had almost forgotten about Bai Suzhen's deep-seated grudge against Sword Land. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This was an important factor that might ultimately determine his relationship with Sword Land.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Thinking about this, Su Jingzhen's expression became solemn.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Seeing his expression, the four from the Divine Sword Sect became even more disdainful.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Haha, scared now? It might be a little too late. No matter where you come from, today will be your last day!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As far as the four from the Divine Sword Sect were concerned, Su Jingzhen's earlier words had already condemned him to death. Without hesitation, they drew their swords, their auras instantly sharpening.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Without further words, the battle began.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen looked at Qiu Yaoyao and Shengana.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Shengana, go back and support us. Yaoyao, can you handle two of them?"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen was a bit nervous. Since his breakthrough, he hadn't had a chance to test his combat strength.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Shengana obediently stepped back.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Qiu Yaoyao smiled, her face filled with confidence. "Of course."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As soon as she spoke, Qiu Yaoyao's expression turned fierce. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">She instantly pulled out a crimson whip, locking onto two members of the Divine Sword Sect. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As her aura surged, the phantom of the nine true dragons appeared behind her. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The pressure was so intense that even Wang Zhong in the True Immortal Realm felt a chill.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">At that moment, Wang Zhong received a message from the Grand Elder deep within the Qingyuan Sect. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After a brief pause, his expression drastically changed. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He hesitated for only a moment before the aura of an early True Immortal Realm cultivator erupted from his body, enveloping the four from the Divine Sword Sect.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"How dare you! The esteemed guests of the Qingyuan Sect are not to be insulted by the likes of you! Today, you've pushed us too far. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The Qingyuan Sect is not a soft persimmon to be squeezed at will. Even if it means the destruction of our sect, we will stand with dignity!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">With a loud shout, Wang Zhong acted in front of Su Jingzhen and Qiu Yaoyao and struck with lightning speed. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He unleashed four palm strikes in quick succession. Even without using any special techniques, the sheer energy of a True Immortal Realm cultivator was more than the four from the Divine Sword Sect could handle.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">The sudden turn of events caught the four of them off guard. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">They hadn't expected Wang Zhong to make a move. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">In an instant, they were sent flying with blood spurting from their mouths. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Not letting up, Wang Zhong quickly moved in front of them and decisively struck again. Their physical bodies were shattered in an instant.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Their souls fled in terror, their faces filled with fear and disbelief. They never imagined that the tiny Qingyuan Sect would dare to kill them.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"You... Wang Zhong, you've got guts! The Qingyuan Sect is finished!"

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Even at this moment, the soul of the blue-robed youth instinctively threatened Wang Zhong.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Although Wang Zhong was trembling inside, he sneered coldly. "Whether the Qingyuan Sect will be destroyed or not, you won't live to see it."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">With that, Wang Zhong clenched his hand in the air. The four souls were instantly restrained and then crushed, leaving no trace of their existence.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Everything happened in the blink of an eye, leaving Su Jingzhen and the others stunned for a moment.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Soon, they regained their composure and looked at Wang Zhong with admiration. A clever move!

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Of course, this was also a high-stakes gamble for Wang Zhong and the Qingyuan Sect.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">After killing the four from the Divine Sword Sect, Wang Zhong's body couldn't help but tremble. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">What he had done was an act of defiance against a superior force. He knew all too well what wrath the Divine Sword Sect would unleash.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">His gaze subconsciously turned toward the depths of the Qingyuan Sect, where the Grand Elder resided.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"Grand Elder, I hope your intuition is correct. Otherwise, the fate of the Qingyuan Sect will come to an end today."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Wang Zhong murmured to himself. Then, he turned his gaze to Su Jingzhen and the others.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">"I was almost forced by those four earlier, and I made a fool of myself in front of you all."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">As he spoke, Wang Zhong's tone was humble. He didn't ask for protection or claim credit, but the hope in his eyes was almost palpable.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen retracted his aura and smiled at him. "Sect Leader Wang, you have great courage. Since you dared to make this choice, I can promise you that the Divine Sword Sect won't be able to touch you. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Moreover, from now on, the Qingyuan Sect will at least rise to the level of a second-rate sect."

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Su Jingzhen didn't know what Sword Land's attitude towards him would be, but protecting the Qingyuan Sect would only require a word from Little Ling. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">This promise was something that he could easily fulfill.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">With the Immortal Palace's Saintess backing them up, it wasn't impossible for the Qingyuan Sect to even become a first-rate force.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">Upon hearing this, Wang Zhong, though still worried, felt somewhat relieved. 

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He didn't ask for much, only that the Qingyuan Sect would remain safe after this.

<spanfont-weight:" 400"="">He bowed respectfully to Su Jingzhen and the others before saying, "I won't keep you any longer. Let's leave for Tiansnow City now."
