Beastmaster of the Ages - Chapter 7626
Chapter 7541: The Return of Xuan Tian
Just as Gui Xiao was suffering humiliation, Gui Jin and Gui Chen, inside the Ten Thousand Sects Battle Hall, saw this scene and their faces turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
“Is this how you teach your disciples? And which sect does this green-haired guy belong to, that he can even use such insidious tricks?” Gui Jin’s face was frosty as he looked at the people from the Li Clan Heavenly Emperor Sect and other sects.
In that instant, the pressure brought by his powerful strength also fell on Li Dixiao and the others, and everyone’s lips tightened slightly.
Faced with the other party’s questioning, the group looked at each other, feeling somewhat helpless.
Li Xuanyin had no words to express his predicament, and could only cautiously say, “To be honest, this person was just
someone we found to make up the numbers because our sect didn’t have enough junior members (less than five). We have no idea about his background.” “Make up the numbers?” Gui Jin exclaimed, then sneered, “You really struck gold! You found someone like this. Since you don’t know his background, whatever he did, or whatever your people did, we’ll just put the blame on you. It’ll save you trouble.”
Li Dixiao, Wan Cangyuan, and the other members of the major sects were all on the verge of tears upon hearing this.
Gui Jin’s meaning was simple: let the Li Clan Heavenly Emperor Sect and other sects bear the brunt of the anger. Because they were implicated, they would naturally vent their anger on the ‘green-haired youth’ Ji Xuanjian.
Even if they actually did it, this was unreasonable; it was blatant bullying.
Without knowing Ji Xuanjian’s true identity, the other party clearly didn’t take him seriously.
Faced with the combined pressure from the Myriad Wings Ancient Sect and the Nine-Colored Blood Sect, Li Dixiao and the others paled slightly from the overwhelming aura.
Although the opposing side consisted of only two sects, they were far stronger than the ‘Five Good Youths’ team in terms of both numbers and strength.
“After all this talk, what exactly do you want? Are you going to break the rules and make a move here in the Myriad Sects Battle Hall?” Li Zhaotang stepped forward, her eyebrows slightly furrowed.
“Make a move? We don’t want to break the rules.” The tall, thin, and handsome Gui Chen chuckled. “But you should know that once you leave this Myriad Sects Battle Hall, neither you nor your sects will be safe. This is a choice you all made together, so you can’t blame anyone else.” “
Even outside the Myriad Sects Battle Hall, it won’t be so easy for you to commit v*olence. Your blatant threats will also be restricted by the Beacon Ruins rules. Even if you are a top sect from the outer regions, you can’t run wild in the Beacon Ruins.” Li Dixiao’s expression turned cold upon hearing this.
Gui Chen chuckled softly. “How about this? I can give you a chance. If someone from your Li Clan Heavenly Emperor Sect were to self-destruct their origin, we might consider letting you go and not pursuing the matter further.” “
What?” Li Xuanyin and Li Zhaotang’s eyes widened in shock.
They clearly hadn’t expected such a condition.
“We’ve already been merciful enough. You’d better not be ungrateful, or I can’t guarantee what might happen in the future,” Zhao Hongyuan said coldly beside Gui Jin.
“Di Xiao, what do we do now?” Li Zhaotang asked Li Di Xiao in a low voice.
She was clearly hesitant, as this, though frustrating, offered a possibility of resolving the conflict.
“I think we should just detonate it. After all, detonating the origin of a God of the Universe once, as long as nothing else goes wrong in the short term, the loss is actually very small,” Li Xuanyin said in a low voice.
Li Dixiao sighed, somewhat helplessly, “Today they cede five cities, tomorrow ten. If we retreat step by step, they will only become more and more demanding.”
“But… if we continue like this, it will be difficult to even return to our sect safely. Should we resist? But let alone us, even if our sects unite, we probably wouldn’t be a match for them,” Li Xuanyin added.
Li Dixiao knew in his heart that what Li Xuanyin said was true.
Being caught in a dilemma was the most difficult choice.
“Well, have you thought it through? If you miss this opportunity and become enemies with us, this matter will not be resolved peacefully,” Gui Jin continued aggressively, seemingly impatient.
Just as the situation reached a stalemate, a voice suddenly came.
“Brother Xiao, so you’re here! I’ve been looking for you
for a long time!” People from the Wanyi Ancient Sect, the Nine-Colored Blood Sect, and the Li Clan Heavenly Emperor Sect all looked in the direction of the voice, their faces full of surprise.
In their sight, a young man with fiery hair and wearing a black and gold robe appeared.
“Who is this person?” Gui Jin frowned.
Zhao Hongyuan thought carefully for a moment, then shook her head and said, “I don’t know either. Could he also be from the Li Clan Heavenly Emperor Sect?”
When the young man approached Li Dixiao, Li Dixiao asked in surprise, “Brother Xuantian?”
The newcomer was none other than Xuantian Que, who had led the Heavenly Emperor Sect into the Beacon Ruins.
“What? You don’t welcome me?” Xuantian Que smiled slightly.
Li Dixiao felt a little embarrassed upon hearing this and smiled, “No, it’s not that. I was just curious that you had time to come here, so I was a little puzzled.”
“The Myriad Sects Battle Hall is full of respected elders from various sects. It’s not necessary to maintain order at all times. I naturally have time to see old friends. Gentlemen, you all agree, right?” Xuantian Que looked at Gui Jin and the others, his gaze somewhat cold.
Along with his gaze, his power as a God of the Universe, no less than theirs, also burst forth.
“Who are you, and why are you interfering in our grudges?” Gui Jin’s gaze narrowed slightly, his expression cold and solemn.
“Who I am is unimportant. What’s important is that if you take another step, you will violate the rules of the Myriad Sects War Hall. At that time, you won’t just be facing me, but the entire patrol team!” Xuan Tianque sneered, reaching out to touch a plaque at his waist.
Only then did the others notice the enforcement plaque at his waist!
“It’s an ‘Inspector’? These wild sects actually have such connections?” Zhao Hongyuan’s pupils widened in shock upon seeing this.
The others’ eyes also widened instantly, forgetting that they had originally suppressed Li Dixiao and the others.
Li Zhaotang didn’t come to Fengxu often, so he whispered curiously to Li Dixiao, “What’s an Inspector?”
Li Dixiao was about to speak when Xuan Tianque seemed to have heard him first. He smiled and said, “It’s nothing much, just someone who breaks up fights. If anyone violates the rules of the Myriad Sects War Hall, people like me, who are summoned by the Qianfeng Eternal Empire and have a certain level of strength in Fengxu, must come out to stop and punish them.”
In other words, he didn’t just represent one person, but an entire temporary organization maintaining order!
Upon hearing this, Gui Jin and the others’ expressions immediately turned grim. They did not recognize Xuan Tian Que, but they knew of the existence of the Inspector.
