Decisive to kill!
Who would have thought that Just Now, Dao Lord Araki Takeshi would kill someone in the blink of an eye while he was chatting casually!
It was only at this moment that the cultivators realized how domineering Su Zimo was!
The Sect Master of Seven Kills Sect was standing at the side and could not react at all. He could only watch as the Elder beside him died on the spot!
At that moment, he did not feel anger, but fear!
The white sword aura brushed past him. Not to mention the sect elders beside him, even he himself did not react in time!
In other words, he would have been a dead man if that sword qi had slashed at him!
Unknowingly, the Patriarch of Seven Kills Sect was already drenched in cold sweat.
However, due to his identity, he pretended to be calm but could not say anything.
In the massive palace, there were many cultivators from the nine upper sects, four gentry clans and two aristocratic families. However, none of them dared to speak and were silent out of fear!
That single sword strike was enough to stun all the cultivators!
The Patriarch of Stellar Luna Sect, Blaze Columbus Valley and the other upper sects were already seated and naturally watched coldly from the sidelines.
As for the Patriarch of Dark Ghost Sect, Blood Mist Sect and the other upper sects, they exchanged glances. Although they were displeased, it was not appropriate for them to stand out.
Firstly, they were afraid of Su Zimo's methods!
They were certain that if they stood out, Dao Lord Araki Takeshi would definitely kill them without any reservations!
Secondly, the Patriarch of Seven Kills Sect did not say anything – there was no need for them to provoke Su Zimo because of that.
In less than ten minutes, Su Zimo had already gained complete control of the situation after entering the main hall from the upper sects and aristocratic families!
Su Zimo's expression was unchanged as he continued to converse with the other Patriarch while instructing Momo to prepare seats for the few sect and family masters.
Before long, some of the Patriarch and aristocratic family masters were seated.
However, the Patriarch of the Four Upper Sects and the Clan Head of a Great Clan were left hanging by Su Zimo without being given a seat.
Dark Ghost Sect, Seven Kills Sect, Blood Mist Sect, Profound Heaven Divine Cult, Yuwen Clan!
Many cultivators immediately understood what was going on.
If Dragon Tiger Sect was included, it was the six major sects that sent Conjoint Body Mighty Figures to kill Dao Lord Araki Takeshi!
Furthermore, the five factions had once headed to Ping Yang Town to get their hands on Araki Takeshi's belongings!
Dao Lord Araki Takeshi had no intention of making an enemy out of all the upper sects. Instead, he was targeting them!
Most of the Patriarch of the Upper Sect were seated while the Patriarch of the Dark Ghost Sect and the Patriarch of the Seven Kills Sect stood in the middle of the hall.
Although the Dark Ghost Sect Patriarch and the others were uneasy, they forced themselves to remain calm.
Su Zimo did not even look at them and merely chatted happily with the other Patriarch and aristocratic family masters. He talked about everything in the world, interesting matters of cultivation and ancient legends!
It was as though they had been forgotten and were left hanging on the spot, unable to advance or retreat.
They were all Patriarch of the Upper Sect and the heads of their families!
In the cultivation world of the North Region, they had noble statuses and were looked up to no matter where they went.
But now, they were going to suffer such humiliation!
Every breath they took in the hall was torture to them!
Even so, they did not dare to leave in a huff.
At the very least, from the looks of it, Dao Lord Araki Takeshi had no intention of killing them.
Otherwise, given Araki Takeshi's personality, he would have taken action long ago instead of delaying!
However, if they were to leave now, they did not know if they would attract Araki Takeshi's killing intent.
None of the five of them dared to try and take the risk.
Given the circumstances, the five of them could only endure it!
After a long time, Su Zimo's gaze shifted and landed on the five of them.
"Dark Ghost Sect, Seven Kills Sect, Blood Mist Sect, Mystic Firmament Divine Cult and Yuwen Clan."
Su Zimo asked indifferently, "Do you know your sins?"
Su Zimo's voice was neither fast nor slow. However, there was a powerful pressure to it that caused the five Patriarch to feel suffocated!
The Patriarch of Dark Ghost Sect grit his teeth and braced himself, saying loudly, "How have we offended you, Dao Lord? Please enlighten us!"
The Sect Master of Mystic Firmament Divine Cult said in a deep voice as well, "Dao Lord Araki Takeshi, Exalted Master Lang Yue who killed you more than ten years ago has already announced his departure from Mystic Firmament Divine Cult. His actions have nothing to do with our sect."
They could not admit to something as such.
The moment they did, they would be exposed.
Dao Lord Araki Takeshi would have an absolute reason to kill them here!
Furthermore, that was the truth.
Back then, the six Conjoint Body Mighty Figures had already announced their departure from the sect in advance for fear of implicating the sect!
If Dark Ghost Sect, Seven Kills Sect and the other upper sects insisted that they had nothing to do with this matter, nobody would have any evidence.
"Oh,"
Su Zimo replied indifferently and did not dwell on the matter. He continued asking, "A few days ago, the cultivators of your sect were stationed outside Ping Yang Town. What were your intentions?"
"At that time, we believed that you would definitely be able to advance to the Dharma Characteristic realm. Therefore, we sent cultivators of our sect over to congratulate you."
The Patriarch of Dark Ghost Sect and the others had already prepared an excuse.
Of course, that excuse was filled with loopholes and could only be used to defend themselves now.
They could not possibly tell Su Zimo that the cultivators of their sect headed to Ping Yang Town because they were waiting for him to die so that they could snatch his treasures!
If they said that, none of them would be able to survive!
"Oh,"
Su Zimo nodded. "Very good."
Although Su Zimo looked calm, the Patriarch of Dark Ghost Sect and the others felt their hearts skip a beat!
"In that case, you guys are not at fault and I'm the one who's overthinking."
Su Zimo murmured softly and a white sword qi gradually condensed on his fingertip, emitting an extremely sharp aura!
Psst!
The five of them from Dark Ghost Sect narrowed their eyes and gasped.
At that moment, they felt the aura of death!
Not good!
Araki Takeshi was going to kill someone!
The moment that thought crossed his mind, the Sect Master of Mystic Firmament Divine Cult was scared out of his wits and blurted, "I'm guilty, I'm guilty!"
"Oh?"
Su Zimo smiled.
The Sect Master of Mystic Firmament Divine Cult's mind spun rapidly as he gulped. "No matter what, Exalted Master Lang Yue was once a Mighty Figure of our sect and we have an unshirkable responsibility!"
"Yes, what should we do then?"
Su Zimo asked with a kind smile.
"W-Our sect is willing to compensate you, Dao Lord,"
Pausing for a moment, the Sect Master of Mystic Firmament Divine Cult grit his teeth and said, "We'll compensate you with a perfect-grade Dao Lord Dharmic weapon!"
Su Zimo retracted his smile. "More than ten years ago, Exalted Master Lang Yue almost killed me. Patriarch, are you saying that my life is only worth a perfect-grade Dao Lord Dharmic weapon? "
"N-No!"
The Sect Master of Mystic Firmament Divine Cult panicked and cold sweat dripped down his forehead.
"Our sect is willing to hand over a hundred Grade 6 elixirs and a hundred Dao Lord Dharmic weapons!"
Grade 6 elixirs were elixirs that only the Dharma Daojun could consume. They had strong medicinal effects and were extremely difficult to refine – every single one of them was precious!
Now that the Sect Master of Mystic Firmament Divine Cult was offering a hundred of them, he was extremely sincere.
Su Zimo's expression was unchanged as he shook his head. "A thousand Grade 6 elixirs, a thousand superior-grade and above Dao Lord Dharmic weapons and 10,000 tons of spirit stones!"
Even the Patriarch of Stellar Luna Sect and the others were shocked, let alone the Sect Master of Mystic Firmament Divine Cult. That was truly exorbitant!
