18: How dare a mere ant offend the sect leader!

"Yushuang Palace!"

The crowd was furious.

Why was Yushuang Palace getting involved too?

Could it be that Yushuang Palace also had a history with the Wending Sect?

If it were just the Wending Sect, they wouldn't have cared; as long as the major Sects sent experts at the Supreme level or above, the Wending Sect could be wiped out in an instant!

But if both Ancient Moon Tower and Yushuang Palace stood with the Wending Sect... things would become complicated!

"Jiang Xue!"

"This matter has nothing to do with your Yushuang Palace!"

Many people who had traveled extensively had seen Jiang Xue before and knew her identity.

The moment Jiang Xue appeared, several Elders recognized her.

"If you want to move against the Wending Sect, you'll have to trample over our Yushuang Palace first!"

Jiang Xue was not intimidated by the crowd's Aura; every word she spoke was powerful and resonant.

"What's going on here?"

Lin Chen looked at Lu Nanzi and Jiang Xue, who had suddenly jumped out to help.

He was completely bewildered.

However... although he didn't know why the Ancient Moon Tower and Yushuang Palace they represented were doing this,

since they could stand up and firmly side with the Wending Sect in a moment of crisis,

he, Lin Chen,

as the Sect Master of the Wending Sect, naturally couldn't remain silent.

"The Wending Sect appreciates the kind intentions of Ancient Moon Tower and Yushuang Palace!"

"In the future, if your two major Sects encounter difficulties, feel free to ask the Wending Sect for help. I, Lin Chen, guarantee that the Wending Sect will provide full support!"

"But..."

"The Wending Sect can handle these mere ants before us on its own!"

Lin Chen smiled faintly.

Then,

under the suspicious gazes of the crowd, Lin Chen clapped his hands: "Old Ancestor, how much longer do you plan to hide? It's time to come out and clear the area!"

"Yes, Sect Master! This old man is here!"

Amidst hearty laughter, the Old Ancestor Li Tiangang appeared out of thin air!

Instantly, a terrifyingly intense Great Emperor's pressure enveloped everyone present. Those with weaker cultivation were immediately unable to move!

As for those with stronger cultivation, such as the Mahayana Realm,

although they could still move, their actions were greatly hindered, and their spiritual energy circulation became incredibly sluggish!

"Peak Great Emperor?!"

The Elders never dreamed that the Old Ancestor of the Wending Sect would actually be at the Peak Great Emperor level!

"A few tiny ants dare to offend the Sect Master!"

Li Tiangang snorted coldly and then waved his hand.

Bang, bang, bang—

Under the terrified gazes of the crowd, the bodies of those Elders who had offended the Wending Sect suddenly exploded!

They perished instantly, without even enough time for their Primordial Spirits to escape!

A Peak Great Emperor expert was by no means someone an ordinary Cultivator could withstand!

"Ah..."

Lu Nanzi and the other Elders of Ancient Moon Tower felt a wave of lingering fear.

If they hadn't known in advance that the Wending Sect had a Peak Great Emperor expert, their current fate would likely be no different from the Elders of the other Sects.

"The Wending Sect actually has a Peak Great Emperor?"

Jiang Xue's mouth hung open in disbelief.

She had only felt that Lin Chen had many secrets and was unfathomable, and that helping the Wending Sect might bring many benefits.

However, Li Tiangang's appearance left her completely stunned.

One must know that even Yushuang Palace did not have a Peak Great Emperor expert!

"Sect Master, everything has been resolved."

Li Tiangang was domineering toward outsiders, but he was extremely respectful toward Lin Chen.

He didn't dare to put on the airs of an Old Ancestor.

"Good."

Lin Chen smiled.

He then turned to look at the surviving Disciples of the various major Sects, his gaze darkening:

"I won't make things difficult for you. Have your Sect Masters come to the Wending Sect in person within a month to apologize! If any Sect dares not to come, I will have the Old Ancestor personally pay them a visit and leave no one alive!"

His voice was cold, piercing straight into their hearts.

"Yes, yes, yes!!"

The Disciples were scared out of their wits. After agreeing, they scrambled and crawled away.

Many of the onlookers also left one after another, fearing that if Lin Chen became unhappy, he would have that Great Emperor kill them too.

Before long, the venue that had originally gathered hundreds of thousands of people suddenly became deserted.

Just then, the System's notification sounded in Lin Chen's mind.

"Hmm?"

"The mission is complete?"

Lin Chen was instantly overjoyed.

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for completing the 'Blockbuster Success' mission!]

[Reward obtained: ten thousand calamities untainted robe]

[ten thousand calamities untainted robe: An immortal treasure. Once worn, it grants immunity to all laws and is blessed by Daoist luck, capable of negating 80% of all attacks.]

...[Reward obtained: sect prestige points × 10,000]

[sect prestige points: Can be used to exchange for items, upgrade skills, etc. It is extremely useful.]

...[Reward obtained: A number of Spirit Stones, Medicinal Pills, Magic Treasures...]

..."Negates 80% of all attacks?"

There weren't many rewards this time, but they were extremely precious.

This defensive Magic Treasure alone could make him invincible!

And then there was the sect prestige points.

As long as he increased the Wending Sect's prestige and let more people know about the Wending Sect, he could obtain the corresponding sect prestige points.

This was good stuff!

It could be used to exchange for precious Magic Treasures, items, and skills... "Miss Jiang Xue, thank you for your full support in our time of need. Why not come to the Wending Sect for a visit and let me show some hospitality?"

Lin Chen extended a warm invitation.

"It would be an honor."

Jiang Xue had exactly that intention.

"Would the Elders of Ancient Moon Tower like to come along as well?"

Lin Chen naturally couldn't forget Lu Nanzi and the others.

"Alright, thank you, Sect Master Lin!"

Lu Nanzi and the others were more than willing.

And so, the group arrived at the Wending Sect in a grand fashion... "Ah... this tea, is it Enlightenment Tea?"

Jiang Xue recognized it after just one sip.

This kind of Enlightenment Tea was extremely precious; even in Yushuang Palace, only a very few people had the fortune to drink it.

Just drinking one cup could be worth ten days of hard cultivation.

She hadn't expected the Wending Sect to have it too.

"It's not any particularly good tea, so please don't mind it, everyone."

Lin Chen gave a small smile.

This wasn't called good tea?

Lu Nanzi and the other Elders of Ancient Moon Tower were also stunned.

They had thought that with a Peak Great Emperor Old Ancestor backing it, the Wending Sect must have deep foundations, but they hadn't expected them to be this deep.

"If you all like it, take some back to drink at your leisure."

While they were still surprised, Lin Chen casually brought out a large pile of Enlightenment Tea, giving each person two thousand catties. Even Miss Ke Ke received a portion.

"Ah, this..."

Lin Chen's generosity was truly lavish.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

So much Enlightenment Tea—even if the entire Cangxuan Realm were added together, they couldn't possibly scrape together this much.

Not only could Lin Chen produce it, but he also gave it away just like that!

The group originally wanted to decline, but they really couldn't resist the temptation of the Enlightenment Tea. In the end, they accepted it with half-hearted protests and great joy.

After exchanging more pleasantries,

Lu Nanzi said with a slight hint of worry: "The Wending Sect has offended the entire Eastern Region this time. Although you have a Peak Great Emperor Old Ancestor, many top forces in the Eastern Region also have Great Emperor ancestors."

"Furthermore,"

"the various major forces are intricately connected and have many friendships with the top forces in the other four regions, such as the Imperial Continent and the Southern Region."

"If they unite to deal with the Wending Sect..."

"I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Old Ancestor to hold them off alone!"

What Lu Nanzi said was not without reason.

"Thank you for your concern, Elder Lu, but these are not problems for my Wending Sect!"

"My Wending Sect is full of hidden experts!"

"If anyone dares to come to my Wending Sect to cause trouble, we'll just wipe them out!"

Lin Chen was unconcerned and smiled faintly.

Overbearing!

An unquestionable overbearingness!

Although the Wending Sect only had about a dozen people in total right now, it already had the posture of looking down on all others!

"Sect Master Lin, I want to know."

"Xiao Bufan's talent is clearly Ultimate Trash Talent..."

"With so many people to choose from, why did you specifically choose Xiao Bufan to be your Personal Disciple?"

Jiang Xue hesitated for a long time before finally asking the doubt in her heart.

Ultimate Trash Talent?

You call the Primal Sword Body 'Ultimate Trash Talent'?

Lin Chen smiled.

"Since Miss Jiang wants to know, then come with me!"
