510: Chapter 510 Dare to interfere with the Ascension Palace again, or you will die.

Zhou Hai knelt on the ground, trembling all over, not daring to say a single word.

His forehead knocked against the white jade bricks, making a "thudding" sound, and soon began to bleed.

Fresh blood flowed down from his forehead, dripping onto the ground and leaving a shocking trail on the white jade bricks.

The few deacons in the Main Hall watched this scene without any expression on their faces.

They just stood there, watching indifferently, as if they were watching an ant struggle.

Hall Master Xuan Qingzi took a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart, and said coldly, "Get up."

Zhou Hai dared not get up; he remained kneeling on the ground, his body trembling.

Hall Master Xuan Qingzi frowned and struck out with his palm!

"Bang!"

An invisible force sent Zhou Hai flying, causing him to crash heavily into the pillars of the Main Hall.

Zhou Hai spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground, unable to even crawl up.

His chest was in excruciating pain, several ribs broken, but he dared not scream, only able to grit his teeth and endure it.

"Go back and tell your Sect Master," Hall Master Xuan Qingzi's voice was as cold as ice, "if you dare to interfere with my Ascension Hall again, then you die."

Zhou Hai struggled to get up, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed repeatedly: "This Disciple understands, this Disciple understands. This Disciple will certainly deliver the message."

"Get out."

Hall Master Xuan Qingzi only said one word.

Zhou Hai scrambled out of the Main Hall.

He ran very fast, not even daring to look back.

His chest was still hurting, and blood was still flowing, but he couldn't care about these things.

He just wanted to leave this godforsaken place, the further away, the better.

The Main Hall returned to silence.

Hall Master Xuan Qingzi stood in the center of the hall, watching the direction where Zhou Hai disappeared, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.

"A bunch of self-righteous fellows," he muttered, "do they really think we at the Ascension Hall are just freeloaders?"

A deacon stepped forward and whispered, "Lord Overseer, regarding that matter of Xiao Nianyin..."

Hall Master Xuan Qingzi waved his hand, interrupting him: "Let the people below keep watching, and do not act rashly. We will discuss it after I return from the Heavenly Abyss."

The deacon was stunned for a moment: "The Heavenly Abyss? Lord Overseer is going to the Heavenly Abyss?"

Hall Master Xuan Qingzi nodded without explaining.

He turned around, walked back to his throne, and sat down slowly.

His gaze pierced through the dome of the Main Hall, through the endless mist, and looked into the distance.

That was the direction of the Heavenly Abyss.

"The Heavenly Abyss has issued a ban, forbidding us at the Ascension Hall from interfering in the affairs of the Hehuan Sect," his voice was very soft, as if he were talking to himself, "Do they really take us for blind? It's just that some people don't want us to manage it."

The deacon opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but swallowed it back.

He knew that there were some things he should not ask about.

Hall Master Xuan Qingzi closed his eyes, leaned back on the throne, and his fingers began to tap gently on the armrest again.

The "tap-tap" sound echoed in the empty Main Hall, beat by beat, like an ancient melody.

"Hehuan Sect... Xiao Nianyin... interesting," the corners of his mouth lifted slightly, revealing a meaningful smile, "True Immortal Realm? Heh, so what if it's the True Immortal Realm? In this Lower Realm, even the True Immortal Realm is nothing but a chess piece."

His figure gradually faded, finally turning into a streak of golden light that dissipated in the Main Hall.

His faint voice echoed in the hall: "We will discuss it when I return."

The few deacons looked at each other and dispersed.

The Main Hall returned to silence, with only the mist flowing slowly and the golden light flickering slightly.

Tianshu Sword Sect, Sect Master Hall.

Shen Tianxing sat on his throne, his face as gloomy as water.

His fingers gripped the armrest tightly, his knuckles turning white, and veins bulging.

Standing in the hall were several Elders: Grand Elder Zhou Yunhe, Second Elder Han Song, Third Elder Su Wanqing, and several other core Elders, all with solemn expressions.

The hall doors were tightly shut, and the flames of the eternal lamps flickered slightly, casting the shadows of everyone on the wall, flickering in the light and dark.

Zhou Hai knelt in the center of the hall, covered in wounds, his face as pale as paper.

His chest was wrapped in bandages, blood seeping through them, and his voice was hoarse and weak.

He had already recounted the entire trip to the Ascension Hall from beginning to end, from entering the Ascension Hall to being struck away by one palm from Hall Master Xuan Qingzi, without missing a single word.

"Sect Master, this Disciple is incompetent and failed to complete the mission. Please punish this Disciple."

Zhou Hai's voice carried a crying tone.

Shen Tianxing did not look at him, his gaze fixed on the direction outside the hall, remaining silent for a long time.

His heart was surging with tumultuous waves.

The Ascension Hall refused to act, and not only did they refuse to act, but they also severely injured Zhou Hai.

Doesn't this mean that they, the Tianshu Sword Sect, are meddling in other people's business?

Grand Elder Zhou Yunhe stroked his beard and spoke slowly: "Sect Master, the attitude of the Ascension Hall is already very clear.

They do not intend to intervene in this matter; we must think of another way."

Second Elder Han Song snorted and said in a muffled voice: "What's so great about the Ascension Hall? Isn't it just an office that manages Ascension? Do they really think so highly of themselves? Why should they manage the affairs of our Tianshu Sword Sect?"

Third Elder Su Wanqing shook her head, her voice very soft but very clear: "Elder Han, that is not the right way to put it.

Although the Ascension Hall does not manage the disputes of the Lower Realm, they control the passage for Ascension.

Offending them will do us no good."

Han Song wanted to say something more, but was stopped by Shen Tianxing raising his hand.

"The Ascension Hall injured Zhou Hai, not because of Xiao Nianyin's matter, but because we overstepped our bounds."

Shen Tianxing's voice was deep, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

"We went to remind them, which in their eyes is slapping them in the face, saying they are derelict in their duty.

That is why they are angry."
