575: Chapter 575 Sect Master Xing Wuji!!

"Zheng—!"

A clear, crisp sound of a zither echoed through the mountains like the tinkling of a spring.

A silver sound blade shot out from the strings!

The sound blade was as thin as a cicada's wing, yet incredibly sharp and blindingly fast!

In the blink of an eye, it crossed dozens of yards and struck the plaque of the Seven Stars Sword Sect!

"Boom—!"

"Crack—!"

A loud explosion was immediately followed by a crisp cracking sound.

The plaque, which had hung there for countless years, burst apart, turning into countless fragments that fluttered down from the lintel!

The Disciples guarding the mountain gate glared in fury at the sight!

"How audacious!"

"You dare destroy our Sect's plaque!"

"You're courting death!"

They all drew their longswords and charged toward the light-blue figure in front of the gate!

Seeing this, Yin Li spoke indifferently:

"Suppress."

A single word.

It was spoken casually, yet it carried an irresistible power.

An invisible spiritual pressure erupted from her and spread outward!

The charging Disciples felt a massive pressure descend upon them, as if an invisible mountain were crushing them down!

"Thud!"

"Thud!"

"Thud!"

One after another, the Disciples were pinned to the ground, unable to move!

They struggled desperately, their True Qi surging wildly as they tried to stand up—

But no matter how hard they struggled, they could not rise!

Their faces flushed red with rage, their eyes filled with humiliation and anger!

What was wrong with their Sword Sect today?

To be provoked twice in a single day!

"This person is too bold!"

"When the Elders come out, this person will definitely pay for this!"

"Exactly! The Elders will surely vent this frustration for us!"

The Disciples ground their teeth, cursing under their breath.

However—

They waited for a long time, but no high-ranking members of the Sect appeared.

Yin Li's expression remained calm.

She casually plucked the strings, and silver sound blades flew from the zither, attacking the buildings surrounding the Seven Stars Sword Sect.

She did not attack these Sword Sect Disciples.

After all, these Disciples were innocent.

Of course, if these Disciples were foolish enough to persist in blocking her, she would not show mercy.

"Zheng—!"

Another sound blade shot out from the strings!

This time, her target was not the plaque, but the main gate of the Seven Stars Sword Sect!

That sound blade was astonishingly fast and terrifyingly sharp!

If struck by this sound blade, the gate of the Seven Stars Sword Sect would surely shatter instantly!

Right then, a sharp Sword Intent burst out from within the gate like a white rainbow piercing the sun, accurately striking the sound blade!

"Boom!"

The Sword Intent and the sound blade collided, erupting in a deafening explosion!

Silver sparks flew in all directions, and the aftershock of the Sword Intent spread outward, kicking up a gale.

Under the impact of the Sword Intent, the sound blade was instantly crushed, dissipating into specks of silver light.

Then, a calm voice rang out from inside the gate: "Your Excellency has come to my Seven Stars Sword Sect to cause such destruction; what exactly is your intent?"

The voice wasn't loud, but it carried an invisible majesty that clearly reached everyone's ears.

As the voice faded, a figure slowly walked out from the gate.

It was a middle-aged man wearing a deep blue robe with seven stars embroidered on the hem, shimmering in the sunlight.

His long hair fell over his shoulders, tied up with a jade hairpin, and a few strands of white hair hung by his ears, adding a touch of weathered experience.

His aura was as deep as the sea, giving off a sense of unfathomable pressure.

This person was the Sect Master of the Seven Stars Sword Sect—Sect Master Xing Wuji.

Behind him, six figures followed closely.

They were old and young, male and female, but each radiated a powerful aura.

Leading them was a grim-faced old man—the Vice Sect Master, Deputy Sect Master Liu Rufeng;

The five behind him were the five Elders of the Seven Stars Sword Sect.

"It's the Sect Master! The Sect Master has come out!"

"Let's see if this person dares to be so arrogant now!"

"This person is finished!"

Upon seeing their Sect Master, the Disciples all showed looks of joy, their eyes filled with reverence and fervor.

In their hearts, the Sect Master was the sky, a god, omnipotent.

Seeing the group before her, Yin Li's brow also furrowed slightly.

Sect Master Sect Master Xing Wuji, Vice Sect Master Deputy Sect Master Liu Rufeng, and the five Seven Stars Elders.

Aside from the three powerhouses lured away by Huang Jiuli—one Vice Sect Master and two Seven Stars Elders—the remaining high-level members of the Sword Sect had all appeared.

Not far away, the remaining three, including Qin Yan, also frowned at this sight.

"It seems we'll have to initiate Plan B."

After Lu Qingshan finished speaking, a flash of excitement crossed his eyes.

In those eyes, there was no fear, only a burning Battle Intent.

"Alright, let's move as well."

Yun Qingge said indifferently, her figure already charging ahead.

Qin Yan nodded, then took out a token and sent a message to Huang Jiuli.

[Return quickly. Final battle.]

After sending the message, his figure flickered as he followed the two.

The three figures, like three arrows released from a bow, sped out from their hiding place and arrived at Yin Li's side in an instant.

The four stood side by side, facing the seven powerhouses of the Seven Stars Sword Sect from a distance.

Sect Master Sect Master Xing Wuji's expression darkened slightly upon seeing the four people who had suddenly appeared.

"It seems you all have not come with good intentions."

He spoke, his voice still calm, but his eyes now held a bit more caution.

Yun Qingge took a step forward, a powerful Sword Intent surging around her and radiating outward.

"The Seven Stars Sword Sect has colluded with the Demonic Sect; you shall be executed!"

Her voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached everyone's ears.

As her words fell, the Disciples who were already whispering immediately broke into an uproar.

"What? Colluding with the Demonic Sect?!"

"No way! Our Seven Stars Sword Sect is a righteous Sect!"

"Right! This must be a slander!"

"But... they don't look like they're lying..."

The Disciples all started talking, some shocked, some skeptical, some angry.

They had grown up in the Seven Stars Sword Sect, always considering themselves part of a righteous Sect. How could they have colluded with the Demonic Sect?

But the high-ranking members of the Sword Sect changed their expressions upon hearing this news, glancing at each other!

Their eyes held shock, fear, and a hint of inexplicable panic.

They were exposed!

Sect Master Xing Wuji's expression also darkened, but his face remained impassive as he said coldly, "To slander my Seven Stars Sword Sect like this and even cause destruction to our Sect—your crimes are unforgivable!"

He knew that no matter what, he couldn't let these people leave alive today.

Once the news of their collusion with the Demonic Sect got out, the Seven Stars Sword Sect would surely face total destruction.

"Attack!"

With a command, Sect Master Xing Wuji struck first, attacking the group!

He wanted to kill them immediately and then flee with the Sect's high-ranking members!

Although only a few nobodies had arrived for now, great experts might come later.

If they stayed any longer, they would likely only find a dead end!
