Shiiing!
The Sword Array of Five Elements and Six Pulses materialized instantly, and Sword Qi emanated as it landed on Zhong Yue's head.
The entire yard was engulfed in sword light, and the walls of Jiang He's house crumbled into dust upon contact.
Though Jiang He was not targeting the True Habitant of Nine Dragons and Elder Mo, the Sword Qi and killing intent that emanated alone left the two full-fledged Yuan Spirit cultivators pale and beads of sweat rolling down their foreheads.
Both men traded glances, finding a look of shock and fear in each other's eyes.
Sword array?
The power of the sword array that was unleashed so casually was probably Convergence-tier, was it not?
Especially the flying swords …
Five premium-grade soul items, as well as a sage item that was brimming with the aura of Dao?
"A secular cultivator who obtained a small providence by chance?"
In that very moment, the True Habitant of Nine Dragons was complaining wildly inwardly. That was the evaluation every immortal sect had for Jiang He, but it now appeared that it was all nonsense. A small providence?
Five premium-grade soul flying swords and one sage flying sword. Most importantly, the sage flying sword did not look weak at all, and could very well be a mediocre-grade sage item, or even superior-grade sage item!
That was a small providence?
Was that black bell that had just trapped him not a sage item as well?
How could that be called a 'small providence'?
After all, even the Penglai Sect did not have more than a handful of sage items, and most of them were inferior-grade or mediocre-grade. A superior-grade sage item was already extremely rare, and premium-grade sage items were treasures that could secure an entire sect's fortune.
"Is Jiang He really a secular cultivator?"
"Where did he actually come from?"
"Yuan Spirit-novice … a Yuan Spirit-novice with the power of Convergence-tier … such a cultivation would be enough to hold an important position in any immortal sect. It's laughable that I actually dared to ask him to meet me and grant him immortal providence …"
The True Habitant of Nine Dragons chuckled bitterly and sighed inwardly.
Elder Mo, on the other hand, sighed softly and shook his head. There was no telling what he was thinking.
As for Zhong Yue …
In that very moment, Zhong Yue's face was pale. The Sword Qi over his head was freezing his entire body, and he opened his mouth to say something submissive, only to find that his voice was hoarse and he could not utter a single cowardly word.
After several seconds, his eyes reddened and he growled, "Jiang He, I am the chief disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect!"
Buzz!
The sword rays vibrated and the Sword Qi hovering above Zhong Yue's head pressed down three inches.
Zhong Yue quickly shrunk his neck, but strands of his black hair fell down.
"Jiang He, my mother is the Fourth Elder of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, while my father is a Convergence-tier elite and the vice-chieftain of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. My parents would never spare you if you hurt me, and you would be making an enemy of the entire Ten Thousand Swords Sect!"
Zhong Yue's eyes turned even redder when he saw his beloved hair being chopped off, and he roared in anger.
And yet, not only was Jiang He not angry, but his eyes lit up instead as he exclaimed in delight, "Are you serious?"
Zhong Yue said angrily, "I, Zhong Yue, never lie."
Still unconvinced, Jiang He turned towards Elder Mo and the True Habitant of Nine Dragons, and only smiled when he saw them nodding. "Not bad, not bad. If that's the case, you are even more valuable …"
Bang!
All of a sudden, he punched Zhong Yue's face, knocking him out and throwing him to the ground.
Holy shit!
The hearts of the True Habitant of Nine Dragons and Elder Mo beat wildly …
The other person had already introduced himself and showed how powerful his backer was. How could you still hit him?
Most importantly, you were so brutal that several of his teeth were knocked out and half his face was caved in. A great Yuan Spirit novice was knocked out with a single punch.
Jiang He exclaimed in delight, "I didn't expect that kid to have such a powerful background. He's worth quite a bit if that's the case."
He turned around, looked at Elder Mo, and asked, "Elder Mo, you are also an elder of the Immortal Sect. Seeing how cruel I am, are you going to stand up and criticize me? Are you going to take action to suppress me and uphold justice?"
Elder Mo's eyelids twitched, unsure why Jiang He would say such a thing. Nonetheless, he braced himself and said, "You must be joking, Brother Jiang. Zhong Yue was rude to you first, and it is only right that you teach him a lesson."
Jiang He sighed.
Wasn't Elder Mo a little too cowardly?
I would be too embarrassed to detain you if you don't reprimand me.
As such, he attacked again, intimidating the True Habitant of Nine Dragons with his Sword Array of Five Elements and Six Pulses before trapping him and Zhong Yue with the Sky Demon Bell. Then, he smiled at Elder Mo. "Well, I'll have to trouble you to send word to the Penglai Sect and the Ten Thousand Swords Sect for me, Elder Mo. Tell them that their people were disrespectful to me, even blowing up the walls of my house and some houses in my village. Tell them to send someone to discuss compensation with me."
"Well …"
Elder Mo hesitated at that.
Wouldn't he be offending the Penglai Sect and the Ten Thousand Swords Sect if he were to send word?
After all, Jiang He had detained the people of those two sects, so why was he not? That in itself was suspicious. Moreover, you were the one who shot down the walls of your house with your Sword Qi, alright?
As for the village …
You were the one who sent Zhong Yue of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect flying, weren't you?
Even so, would Elder Mo dare to say that? After musing to himself for seconds, he flashed a pained smile. "Brother Jiang, forgive me for not being able to comply, but to tell the truth …"
Kaboom!
Even before he finished, he saw Jiang He's frightening aura bursting out as his mystic energy surged and veins of Sword Qi shot out. Promptly changing his tone, he said, "To tell the truth, even though I'm on a journey under the orders of the True Habitant and cannot run around, it would be great if I could visit the Penglai Sect and the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and help you, Brother Jiang He."
Withdrawing his aura, Jiang He appeared a little disappointed as he clapped Elder Mo's shoulder, saying, "Thank you very much, Elder Mo. By the way, where is the mountain archway of the Taixu Sect? "
"I've hit it off with you, Elder Mo. If you know where the mountain archway of the Taixu Sect is, I could visit you often in the future."
Elder Mo could not help getting an idea then.
The demonic combat ability that Jiang He had displayed was unimaginable. Accepting him as a disciple was clearly wishful thinking given Jiang He's ability, but being on good terms with him would have accomplished the True Habitant's mission. Hence, he promptly took out a jade charm and said, "The Taixu Sect is located at Mount Kunlun. Brother Jiang He, you just need to pour your mystic energy into this jade charm and I would sense it."
Not daring to linger, he bade farewell and quickly took to the skies, disappearing into the night.
Elder Mo flew as fast as lightning for eight hundred miles before he finally slowed down a little. He wiped the beads of sweat off his forehead and sighed with a bitter smile …
Today, everyone was here to recruit disciples.
When they arrived, their hearts were filled with arrogance. They thought that the people of the mortal world would respect them from the Immortal Sects, so they couldn't help but have a 'superior' mentality towards them.
And yet …
The chief disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect was beaten up, the True Habitant of Nine Dragons was subjugated, and both were directly captured.
"The Penglai Sect is easy to deal with since it is not yet time for them to show themselves. Moreover, with Jiang He's ability, he definitely carries great fortune, which is why the Penglai Sect would not make a big fuss. On the other hand, the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is hot-tempered …"
Elder Mo could not help feeling a headache at the thought that he had to relay a message.
"Whatever. I'll return to the sect and report this matter to the True Habitant, and see what he decides." As Elder Mo flew towards Mount Kunlun, his heavy heart lightened considerably when he remembered that Jiang He had taken the initiative to express goodwill and said that he would visit the Taixu Sect.
…
Meanwhile.
Inside the mansion.
Jiang He was fiddling with the jade charm with a look of delight on his face, smiling. "With this jade charm, I know where the Taixu Sect is, and I could borrow mystic treasures and soul items whenever I need them. Moreover, the people of the Taixu Sect look cowardly and should be easy to talk to."
