115: Chapter 115 The Huashan Sect is not convinced? Subdue them by force.

Lu Chen held the dragon slaying saber, a surge of domineering aura arising spontaneously.

He looked around, finally locking his gaze onto a huge boulder at the edge of the square.

The boulder was more than two people high, left over from when the square was built, its texture so hard that ordinary sabers and swords could hardly damage it in the slightest.

"I'll use it to test the blade!"

Lu Chen gave a violent shout, lifting the saber and flying towards the boulder.

His figure was like lightning, arriving in front of the boulder in an instant.

"Open!"

With another violent shout, Lu Chen gripped the saber with both hands and slashed down fiercely.

The blade sliced through the air, letting out a piercing whistle.

"Crack!"

A crisp sound echoed throughout the entire venue.

Everyone saw a flash of cold light, and the incredibly hard boulder was actually split in two by the dragon slaying saber, the cut as smooth as a mirror, leaving everyone in awe.

"Hiss..."

The sound of gasping for cold air rose one after another.

Those from the Six Great Sects were all shocked.

Although they had heard of the dragon slaying saber's prowess, seeing it with their own eyes still left them incredibly shaken.

One must know that this boulder was no ordinary stone; it was extremely hard.

If an ordinary saber or sword struck it, it would likely only leave a mark.

Yet this dragon slaying saber could split it with a single blow; it was simply inconceivable.

Even more terrifying was that Lu Chen's strike just now had no flaws at all, and his Internal Energy was so profound it was frightening.

He Taichong of the Kunlun Sect had a livid face, with fine beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.

The Fat and Thin Elders of the Huashan Sect had their mouths wide open, unable to speak for a long time.

Even Shaolin's Great Master Kong Zhi couldn't help but be slightly moved, a strange look flashing in his eyes.

"A precious saber! Truly a precious saber!"

Someone in the crowd couldn't help but exclaim.

Lu Chen stood proudly with the dragon slaying saber, like a god of war.

His gaze was like lightning as he scanned the field, finally landing on a young scholar in his thirties.

Yang Xiao prompted Lu Chen from the side that this was the Huashan Sect's Sect Leader Xianyu Tong.

"Sect Leader Xianyu, you said earlier that 'the virtuous should possess it,' and I, Lu, deeply agree."

"Now that I hold the dragon slaying saber, naturally, I am virtuous?"

Xianyu Tong's face turned red and white in turns, caught by Lu Chen's words.

He didn't expect Lu Chen to be so aggressive, directly putting him on the spot.

If he admitted Lu Chen had "virtue," wouldn't that be admitting the Ming Cult was a righteous army?

How could he explain that to the heroes of the world?

But if he didn't admit it, the power of that strike just now... Xianyu Tong seemed a bit terrified?

Could it be said that Lu Chen was from an evil path, which was why he possessed such great power?

Wouldn't that be a contradiction?

"Cult Leader Lu must be joking; how can the word 'virtue' be measured by martial force?"

Xianyu Tong said dryly, "The Ming Cult claims its martial arts are peerless and thus considers itself 'virtuous,' but..."

"But what?" Lu Chen looked at him with a faint smile.

Xianyu Tong braced himself and said, "But this 'virtue' still needs to pass the test of time before a conclusion can be reached."

"Oh? The test of time? I wonder how long Sect Leader Xianyu wants to test it for?" Lu Chen asked with interest.

Xianyu Tong stammered, unable to speak.

Seeing this, Lu Chen laughed loudly, "Since Sect Leader Xianyu cannot answer, then I, Lu, will answer for you."

"This 'virtue' needs no testing; it is in the present!"

After saying that, Lu Chen suddenly turned and said to the people of the Ming Cult, "Brothers, are you willing to lend me your weapons to use?"

"We are! We are! We are!"

The people of the Ming Cult shouted in unison, their voices shaking the sky.

Several Ming Cult members hurriedly handed their weapons to Lu Chen.

Sabers, spears, swords, halberds, axes, battle-axes, hooks, and forks—all kinds of weapons were there.

Lu Chen casually picked up a steel saber, weighed it, and said with a smile, "This saber isn't bad, it's sturdy enough."

Having said that, he held the steel saber across his body and said to Xianyu Tong, "Sect Leader Xianyu, watch closely!"

Before his voice had even faded, Lu Chen suddenly swung the dragon slaying saber, hacking toward the steel saber.

"Crack!"

With a crisp sound, that steel saber was actually cut in two by the dragon slaying saber, the cut as smooth as a mirror without any resistance.

"This..."

Xianyu Tong's eyes almost popped out.

He hadn't expected the dragon slaying saber to be so sharp that even a steel saber could be easily severed.

Lu Chen ignored everyone's shock, casually threw the broken saber on the ground, and picked up a longsword.

"This sword isn't bad either, sharp enough."

Having said that, he swung the dragon slaying saber again towards the longsword.

The result was the same as before; the longsword was also cut in two by the dragon slaying saber without any suspense.

Next, Lu Chen picked up a long spear, an iron staff, a large axe...

Without exception, all the weapons were cut through by the dragon slaying saber like cutting tofu, easy and effortless.

The square was silent; one could hear a pin drop.

But looking at it now, this dragon slaying saber was simply an invincible Sharp Weapon; nothing could block its edge.

He Taichong of the Kunlun Sect turned pale, his legs trembling, almost unable to stand steadily.

The Fat and Thin Elders of the Huashan Sect were even more ashen-faced, their eyes filled with fear.

Even Shaolin's Great Master Kong Zhi couldn't help but sigh, pressing his palms together and chanting a Buddhist name.

"Amitabha, How virtuous, How virtuous."

After Lu Chen had severed all the weapons, he carried the dragon slaying saber on his shoulder and said to Xianyu Tong, "Sect Leader Xianyu, now do you think my saber possesses 'virtue'?"

Xianyu Tong's face was livid, and he couldn't say a word.

He finally understood that Lu Chen wasn't reasoning with him at all but was crushing him with strength.

In the face of absolute power, any schemes or intrigues were futile.

Seeing that Xianyu Tong remained silent, Lu Chen gave a cold laugh.

He looked around at the people of the Six Great Sects and spoke with a voice like a great bell: "Everyone, I know you have come today to crusade against my Ming Cult."

He shifted his tone, pointing directly at Xianyu Tong: "However, the first person I want to crusade against today is this Huashan Sect Leader, Xianyu Tong!"

Xianyu Tong's expression changed drastically, and he shouted angrily, "Lu Chen, do not make false accusations! I, Xianyu Tong, act uprightly and honorably; what is there to crusade against?"

Lu Chen curled his lip, his gaze contemptuous: "Is that so? Upright and honorable? I'm afraid not."

He took a step forward, staring intently at Xianyu Tong: "Sect Leader Xianyu, do you still remember an old acquaintance?"

Xianyu Tong's face stiffened, his eyes flickering uncertainly.

"I have someone who was both a teacher and a friend," Lu Chen said slowly, yet his voice clearly reached everyone's ears. "In his youth, he devoted himself to studying medicine, determined to help the world and save people."

"Unexpectedly, the person he saved actually turned around and repaid kindness with enmity!"

Lu Chen's voice suddenly rose: "There was a youth who was struck by Golden Silkworm Gu Poison in Miaojiang, Guizhou. That is an incredibly lethal poison; those struck by it are destined to die and will experience all the most unbearable suffering in the world before they perish."

"My friend did not sleep for three days and three nights, exhausting his heart and soul to save him!" Lu Chen paused, emphasizing, "Not only that, he also became sworn brothers with him, treating him like his own, and even betrothed his own younger sister to him as his wife!"

Whispers began to break out among the crowd.

Lu Chen acted as if he hadn't heard and continued, "Later, for the position of Sect Head and to marry the daughter of his Sect Head, this fellow actually plotted to kill my friend's younger sister!"

He spoke word by word, striking Xianyu Tong's heart like a heavy hammer: "Crucially, at that time, my friend's sister was already pregnant with this youth's child—one corpse, two lives!"

"My friend came to seek revenge many times, only to be heavily injured by him!"

Lu Chen's voice rose sharply as he questioned, "May I ask, is this person who was saved a virtuous person!?"
