132: Section 132
She had personally witnessed Jun Tianye, the Haoran Holy Land’s Saint, being suppressed and killed by Chu Mo with a single punch.
Elder Qu also happened to see this scene. He was first startled, then seemed to recall something, and said in disbelief, “Chu Mo, could it be that Jun Tianye died by your hand?”
Chu Mo nodded.
Upon receiving the confirmed answer, even Elder Qu couldn’t help but take a deep breath.
He had never expected it.
Chu Mo could actually achieve such a feat.
The surprises this young junior brought him were growing increasingly significant.
He even began to anticipate what heights Chu Mo would reach in the future.
As for the Haoran Holy Land’s Saint dying at the hands of a true disciple of their Taichu Holy Land, he didn’t care in the slightest.
It was merely the Haoran Holy Land.
Not to mention that the other party didn’t know yet; even if they knew Chu Mo killed him, what could they do?
Would they dare to wage war against the Taichu Holy Land?!
As the Duzhen Hall’s Hall Master of the Taichu Holy Land, Elder Qu was specifically in charge of the Holy Land’s external conquests.
He hadn’t had a chance to exercise his skills for a long time recently. If the Haoran Holy Land truly wanted to start a war, he would be quite eager for it.
However, he assumed the other party wouldn’t have the guts.
Therefore.
After watching the Haoran Holy Land’s predicament for a while longer, Elder Qu felt somewhat bored.
Furthermore, since the four true disciples had gained considerable benefits and it was time to digest them and convert them into strength, Elder Qu decided to take them back to the Holy Land first.
The group began boarding the ancient warship, preparing to return.
However.
Just at this moment.
Zhenyuan Great Saint, who still looked furious, suddenly saw the group from the Taichu Holy Land preparing to leave and spotted Chu Mo among them. He immediately said in a deep voice, “Chu Mo, the Saint of my Haoran Holy Land did not emerge from the Void Tomb. Was it you who did it?!”
His suspicion was not without reason.
The truth was that Jun Tianye’s strength was already among the top Prodigies. Even if he encountered Prodigies like Gu Shaoshang or Wei Yaoguang, he would absolutely not be at a disadvantage, and might even have a slight edge.
Except for Chu Mo, this newly promoted true disciple of the Taichu Holy Land!
Before entering the Void Tomb, his strength was already impressive, and within the Void Tomb, he alone, with a single sword, defeated over two hundred Prodigies.
If Jun Tianye fell or died in the Haoran Holy Land, the only one who could possibly have done it was Chu Mo!
“It was me!”
Chu Mo looked at the furious Zhenyuan Great Saint and nodded in admission.
“It really was you!”
Hearing this, Zhenyuan Great Saint’s expression grew even uglier. He said in a deep voice, “What did you do to him?!”
“Jun Tianye tried to seize my Opportunity and acted superior. When I refused, he tried to kill me. Unfortunately, he was inferior in skill and was killed by me!”
Chu Mo said straightforwardly.
What!
Hearing Chu Mo’s words, everyone present changed color, their faces revealing shock.
No one had expected it.
Jun Tianye was actually killed by Chu Mo!
What was even more unexpected was that Chu Mo actually admitted it!
Even Zhenyuan Great Saint was stunned for a moment, but he quickly recovered.
“How dare you, Chu Mo!”
“You dare to kill the Saint of my Haoran Holy Land, you’re simply courting death!”
His entire body exuded a fierce Aura, Saint Qi permeated, and monstrous Evil Qi swept forth, instantly covering the entire vast mountain range. The celestial phenomena within the area immediately changed.
Dark clouds covered the sky, and lightning flashed with thunder.
The thick killing intent, like surging waves, rolled towards Chu Mo, resembling a heavenly river sweeping down, intending to suppress and kill him.
“How audacious, to dare to lay hands on a true disciple of my Taichu Holy Land!”
Fortunately, at this moment, a cold snort suddenly came.
Immediately, Elder Qu was seen soaring into the air, his body exuding Aura, Saint Qi permeating, and terrifying power, like an immeasurable sea, spread out, blocking Chu Mo’s path.
At this moment.
His entire body radiated Divine Light, like a blazing sun, filled with the power of ultimate sublimation.
Chu Mo was a true disciple of the Taichu Holy Land.
His talent and Comprehension Ability were extraordinary. He was the Quasi-Saint Child candidate favored by the Sect Master, and Elder Qu also greatly admired him. In the future, he was very likely to succeed as the Taichu Saint and become the successor who would lead the Holy Land.
Under such circumstances.
How could he allow others to harm Chu Mo!
Elder Qu and Zhenyuan Great Saint’s Auras collided.
The Qi emitted by the two Saint Realm powerhouses caused the celestial phenomena to fluctuate violently, and the surrounding Void Realm twisted accordingly. Explosive roars from the collision of Qi and blood resounded.
Dense killing intent permeated, covering this vast world.
Those forces without Entering Saint Realm powerhouses trembled under such terrifying killing intent.
They feared that the two Holy Lands would start a war, and they would be caught in the crossfire.
“Qu Wuyi, don’t think I’m afraid of you!”
Seeing Elder Qu step forward, Zhenyuan Great Saint roared.
His mood was very unsettled now.
His most proud junior successor had fallen into the Void Tomb, most likely already dead, and the biggest suspect was Chu Mo. But now, Qu Wuyi was blocking his way, which greatly enraged him.
As his voice fell.
The dense killing intent surged again, and brilliant Divine Light rose from his body, blazing like a scorching sun. The Divine Might contained within it even made the Void Realm crackle, as if the very firmament could be completely shattered.
“If you’re not convinced, just try it!”
Qu Wuyi was not afraid in the slightest.
He also displayed Divine Might, his Qi blazing like a heavenly abyss descending, pressing down upon this world. Countless Martial Artists enveloped within it couldn’t help but tremble all over, feeling their scalps tingle, their hearts filled with dread, and an urge to kneel down.
What made them even more afraid was that.
The Taichu Holy Land was a hegemonic force in the Eastern Wang Dao Domain, and although the Haoran Holy Land was slightly weaker, it was also a top-tier existence.
Once these two started a war, the flames of war would inevitably spread throughout the entire Dao Domain.
At that time, their forces would definitely be drawn in, and there might even be a risk of falling.
At the thought of this possibility, everyone’s faces turned ashen.
Fortunately.
Their greatest fear ultimately did not materialize—
As Qu Wuyi displayed his Divine Might, Zhenyuan Great Saint also suddenly sobered up, recalling his reputation from years past—during Qu Wuyi’s tenure as Duzhen Hall Master, although the Taichu Holy Land did not engage in large-scale external conquests, his methods were quite forceful, having personally acted on several occasions.
Each time, it was a bloodbath, and quite a few Great Saints died by his hand.
Although Zhenyuan Great Saint had been famous for a long time, he knew that if he were to fight him, there would be no hope of winning, and there might even be a risk of falling.
More importantly.
The Haoran Holy Land would also be dragged in, and would inevitably suffer heavy losses, possibly even facing the destruction of its Dao lineage.
Thinking of this.
He felt a desire to retreat.
Just at this moment, the Elder beside him also spoke to persuade him: “Grand Elder, please think twice!”
“Yes, Grand Elder, this matter is too significant. The most important thing now is to immediately report the news to the Sect Master and all the Old Ancestors!”
“Please, Grand Elder, restrain yourself!”
The Elders spoke one after another.
Hearing this, Zhenyuan Great Saint no longer forced himself. He merely snorted coldly and said, “Qu Wuyi, the Haoran Holy Land will remember today’s events. There will be a reckoning in the future!”
With that said.
He cast another murderous glance at Chu Mo, his eyes showing a threatening intent, then turned and left, taking the Elders and other true disciples of the Haoran Holy Land. They all boarded ancient warships and departed from here.
Witnessing this scene.
Many onlookers finally breathed a sigh of relief.
