Belated repentance is worth less than grass
Though they were clearly all inanimate objects, at this moment, they simultaneously opened their eyes and their limbs began to move, appearing extremely bizarre.
Then, rays of light emanated from their bodies, and within the light, their forms suddenly enlarged.
Moments later, this group of wooden carvings transformed into human beings indistinguishable from real ones.
It seemed they were summoned by something.
The moment they transformed into humans, they collectively turned into streaks of light and flew towards the Spatial Gate in the distance.
Immediately after.
The Heaven Cloud Sect members then saw figures rushing out of the Spatial Gate in front of Zhong Qing.
One.
Two...
Seven.
Eight...
Thirty.
Forty...
Two hundred.
Three hundred...
The number was still climbing...
Dense and numerous.
They poured out of the Spatial Gate like locusts, their sheer number making one's scalp tingle.
However.
This was not the most terrifying part.
What truly terrified them was that these mysterious individuals who emerged from the Spatial Gate were, without exception, all at the Sun Profound Realm cultivation level.
"How, how... is that possible?"
This scene directly stunned Wu Yun into incoherence.
One must know that for his Heaven Cloud Sect to gather more than fifty Sun Profound Realm cultivators, it was because they used a secret technique to perfectly preserve the corpses of Elders who had passed away in Heaven Cloud Sect's history, and through certain specific means, they could make them appear in battle with eighty percent of their strength from when they were alive during critical moments.
But now.
The dense crowd of mysterious individuals surrounding Zhong Qing were all at the Sun Profound Realm.
A rough count suggested their number probably exceeded a thousand.
A thousand Sun Profound Realm cultivators.
What kind of concept was that?!
Wu Yun simply couldn't believe it.
The suddenly appearing mysterious individuals each threw a punch towards the sky, and the killing moves unleashed by Wu Yun and the others instantly scattered like birds.
At the same time, the powerful residual force they carried directly surged back, engulfing Wu Yun and the others.
Fortunately, Wu Yun and the others, seeing that the situation was dire, retreated desperately at the first opportunity.
But even so.
Wu Yun and his fifty-plus companions were still sent flying by the residual force.
Out of fifty-plus people, more than ten had their bodies exploded on the spot.
Another ten or so were severely injured on the spot, losing eighty percent of their combat effectiveness.
Though the remaining people fared slightly better, not a single one appeared unscathed.
And Wu Yun, who bore the brunt, directly lost an arm in the earlier clash; this was only because his strength was great enough, otherwise he would have died instantly at that moment.
Wu Yun quickly swallowed a Medicinal Pill, looked at the people around him, and blood vessels popped in his eyes.
He gasped for breath, looking at Zhong Qing, his eyes filled with both fear and hatred.
"You, who exactly are you?"
"From what power do you hail?"
Zhong Qing looked at him disdainfully and coldly retorted, "Do you think it's still meaningful for you to ask me these things now?"
"Good, good, good, then this time my Heaven Cloud Sect admits defeat, and I also acknowledge that Your Excellency's fist is mightier." Wu Yun suppressed the intense pain of his lost arm and said in a deep voice, "So please leave the Heaven Cloud Sect now, and I promise that my Heaven Cloud Sect will pretend that today's events never happened, and from now on, we will not interfere with Your Excellency, how about that?"
"???"
Zhong Qing looked at him with a face full of question marks, feeling a bit bewildered.
And also a little like laughing.
"Are you forgiving me with those words?"
"And pretending today's events never happened? Are you still not clear about the situation?"
"Still living in your arrogance?"
"What do you want?"
Wu Yun said with an ugly expression. At this point, he suddenly realized that his Heaven Cloud Sect seemed to have run into a formidable opponent.
"Originally, I didn't want anything; I just wanted to bring my disciple to fulfill a challenge agreement. Who knew that your Heaven Cloud Sect would start being disgusting from the moment my disciple and I entered the mountain gate."
"But that's fine, after all, I never intended to blow things out of proportion."
"Even just now, I gave you two chances, but unfortunately, you don't seem to cherish them."
"You should know the old saying, 'Once you pass this village, there's no more shop.'"
"And you also know the saying, 'There's no medicine for regret in this world.'"
"Since things have come to this point, it's a fight to the death."
"So now, I can only say sorry to you, because from now on, even if it's just a cockroach from your Heaven Cloud Sect, I will directly crush it!"
"Because I don't want someone to suddenly appear one day, claiming to avenge the Heaven Cloud Sect."
"Although I'm not afraid, I find it troublesome."
"Killing so many lives at once, I actually feel quite guilty, but who they truly should blame is you; it's you, this ignorant Sect Master, who killed them."
Zhong Qing's calm voice drifted out.
As he spoke, he took out a table and chairs from his Small World, set them up, then sat down at the table and began brewing tea.
A few brief sentences directly sentenced the entire Heaven Cloud Sect to death.
Although he hadn't been in this world for long, he was extremely familiar with the Laws of this Cultivation world.
If he hadn't been powerful today, and hadn't had enough trump cards.
He and his disciple would have died without even knowing how they died.
No one in the entire Heaven Cloud Sect would have spoken a word for them; they would only have clapped and cheered.
Even if there would be many innocent people among them.
But what of it?
From the moment you embark on the path of Cultivation and join a Sect, you must be prepared to face everything.
Furthermore.
He didn't dare to gamble.
Who knew if a favored child of heaven, or some child of Luck, would emerge from within and seek revenge on him in the future?
He was not afraid.
But he had a disciple, and possibly family in the future.
The tea was good.
Zhong Qing shook his head, savoring the tea.
When the cup in his hand was set down, over a thousand Sun Profound Realm experts moved in unison!
With that movement.
For the entire Heaven Cloud Sect, it was as if the apocalypse had arrived.
A roar.
The continuous buildings, which had accumulated countless efforts of the Heaven Cloud Sect, collapsed with a crash.
Several Elders beside Wu Yun were instantly besieged by more than a dozen Sun Profound Realm cultivators.
Elders with a few tricks up their sleeves could still desperately hold on for a moment.
But Elders with weaker strength were almost instantly turned into a bloody mist after a few exchanges.
"You... I was wrong, isn't that enough?"
Wu Yun's eyes were red, and his body trembled.
At this moment, he was truly terrified, and his heart was truly afraid.
Because if this continued, the entire Heaven Cloud Sect would be completely destroyed in his hands.
He also deeply knew that Zhong Qing was an existence he simply couldn't afford to provoke.
He screamed hysterically at Zhong Qing, "Didn't you want me to kneel and apologize to your disciple? I'm willing, isn't that enough?"
But Zhong Qing seemed not to hear his words, continuing to sip his tea at his own pace.
Late repentance is cheaper than grass.
What were you doing before?
Seeing Zhong Qing unmoved, Wu Yun was frantic, watching one expert after another in the Sect being killed, and one building after another being destroyed. He was at a loss, completely unsure of what to do.
Suddenly.
He saw Murong Xue fleeing in the chaos, and while hatred filled his heart, it was as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
He stepped through the air and slapped Murong Xue to the ground.
"Bitch, it's all the trouble you, this bitch, caused. Hurry up and go make him stop."
"No, no, no, don't, don't!" At this moment, Murong Xue was already scared out of her wits, acting like a madwoman. When Wu Yun said that, she immediately knelt down and begged for mercy.
She couldn't understand why things had turned out this way.
Why the waste she once scorned actually had such an existence backing him.
Why Zhong Qing chose Lin Feng and not her; she had golden talent!
But Wu Yun completely ignored Murong Xue's pleas, picked her up, and threw her flying, directly landing at the feet of Zhong Qing and Lin Feng.
