"Hall Master, don't you think you've gone too far?"
The old man glared at Duan Lingtian as he said with a dark expression, "The three of them have served the Title Temple for many years. Even if you've disrespected them, you shouldn't have killed them.
Moreover, do you think it's appropriate for a Sub Hall Master to become the Main Hall Master? "
The old man asked in a deep voice.
"Elder Chu, do you have something to say about this?"
Duan Ling Tian glanced deeply at the old man. Although his tone was still indifferent, his gaze revealed coldness.
"Hmph!"
The old man harrumphed coldly. "What? Wu Hongqing, are you planning to make a move on me? "
As his voice fell, a powerful aura swept out from the old man's body. In the blink of an eye, it caused the hearts of everyone present to palpitate, especially those of the younger generation with weaker cultivations. They were pressured by this aura to the point that their faces turned pale and they were unable to breathe.
"Elder Chu has … broken through to the God King Realm?"
Many of the Sub Hall Masters were shocked.
Even Zhuang Tianheng, the Sub Hall Master of Zhou Mengtian's Sub Hall Master Zhuang Tianheng, was shocked. "That old man has broken through to the God King Realm?"
"With his attainments in the Laws of Profundity, even Wu Hongqing might not be able to kill him now that he has broken through to the God King Realm."
"His attainments in the Laws of Profundity are even higher than Wu Hongqing's."
Chu Huyi, the Vice Palace Master of the Title Temple, was the person with the highest seniority in the Title Temple. In terms of seniority, he was Wu Hongqing's Junior Grand Uncle. Chu Huyi's innate talent was ordinary, but his comprehension of the Laws of Profundities was outstanding.
When he was a Lesser God, he was said to be invincible below the Higher God Realm in the Title Temple.
Not even an intermediate deity was a match for him.
As soon as he became a Higher God, he was publicly acknowledged as the strongest person below the God King Realm in the Title Temple.
Now that he had broken through to the God King Realm, even if he was only a Lesser God King, he would be able to fight against an Intermediate God King.
Moreover, in Chu Huyi's opinion, Wu Hongqing might not have been an Intermediate God King in the past.
Of course, even if Wu Hongqing was an Intermediate God King, it was almost impossible for him to kill Chu Huyi who had broken through to the God King Realm.
"Elder Chu has broken through!"
"Elder Chu has broken through to the Divine King Realm. Even if he's only a Lower Divine King, I'm afraid he'll be able to stand shoulder to shoulder with a Medium Divine King!"
"Elder Chu is an expert in the law of destruction. Not only that, but his attainments in the law of destruction are unrivaled in the Title Temple!"
…
The Hall Masters of the various Title Temples sighed.
There were even some people who whispered, "I'm afraid that even the Palace Master might not be able to defeat Elder Chu."
"I wonder how the Hall Master will appear today."
"Will the Hall Master fight with Elder Chu?"
…
Of course, although these people were whispering, they also knew what could be said and what could not be said.
If they felt that the Hall Master of the Main Hall was behaving inappropriately, they would not dare to say it out loud. They could only communicate with him telepathically.
There were even people who hoped that Chu Huyi would be able to defeat Wu Hongqing and take over the Title Temple as the new Hall Master of the Title Temple!
Wu Hongqing's actions earlier had made them feel very uncomfortable. In fact, they did not feel safe at all.
None of them wished for a tyrant to control their fates above them.
This was not a good feeling at all.
"I didn't expect Elder Chu to have broken through to the God King Realm."
Duan Lingtian looked at the old man in front of him and smiled faintly. "Elder Chu, is this why you're so confident?"
Chu Huyi glared at Duan Lingtian and said coldly, "Wu Hongqing, do you really think you're capable of killing me?"
"It's not that I'm looking down on you, but I'm afraid you're not capable of killing me."
Chu Huyi sneered.
"Is that so?"
The smile on Duan Ling Tian's face remained unchanged. However, in just a blink of an eye, the smile on his face disappeared. A hint of coldness could be seen in his eyes as he shouted, "Vice Palace Master Chu Hu Yi of the Main Palace has offended his superior. Not only did he disrespect the Palace Master, but he even tried to attack the Palace Master.
As soon as Duan Lingtian finished speaking, he raised his hand and pressed it downward.
The entire process was done in a casual manner.
"Deliberately mystifying things!"
Chu Huyi released his Divine Energy. The tyrannical God King's Divine Energy merged with his Law of Destruction and erupted with a terrifying aura of destruction. Many of the expressions of the younger generation from the Sub Halls changed drastically as they bled from their seven orifices.
Fortunately, the Sub Hall Master had acted in time so no one died.
Otherwise, many of the younger generation would have perished just like that.
"Is this the aura of a God King?"
"A God King is actually so powerful … Although I'm a Demigod, I can't even muster the will to resist in front of this aura."
"As expected of a God King who's above the Gods. He's too terrifying."
…
At this moment, the Sub Hall Masters were looking at Chu Huyi with reverence in their eyes.
However, this reverence did not last long.
This was because in the next instant, a faintly discernible giant palm suddenly appeared above Chu Huyi's head and slammed down on him.
However, Chu Huyi did not seem to notice it at all.
Bang!
A loud sound rang in the air as the giant palm slammed down on Chu Huyi, sending him crashing into the ground. At the same time, a bottomless palm print appeared on the ground.
At the same time, a cloud of dust rose into the air.
When the dust settled, what appeared before everyone's eyes was a bottomless abyss that was shaped like a palm print.
"This … this …"
"The Sub Hall Master's strength is actually so powerful?"
"Vice Hall Master Chu has broken through to the God King Realm. Even if he's only a Lesser God King, with his attainments in the Law of Destruction, he should be able to fight against an Intermediate God King. However, he's completely powerless in front of the Sub Hall Master?"
"Did Vice Hall Master Chu get careless?"
"Did Vice Hall Master Chu … die?"
…
The people from the Sub Halls of the Title Temple were dumbfounded as they stared at the bottomless abyss in front of them. However, the Sub Hall Masters were communicating through Voice Transmissions. They could hear the fear in each other's voices.
Although they knew that the Main Hall Master, Wu Hongqing, was extremely powerful, they did not expect him to be this powerful.
A person who could fight against an Intermediate God King was actually sent crashing into the ground with a single slap. No one knew if Chu Huyi was dead or alive. Throughout the entire process, Chu Huyi did not even have the strength to resist.
"Come out. I haven't killed him yet."
Duan Lingtian spoke at this time. At the same time, everyone's heart skipped a beat. Based on what the Main Hall Master said, if he had killed Chu Huyi earlier, Vice Hall Master Chu would have died.
Bang!
A loud sound rang from the bottom of the abyss. Following that, a figure shot up to the sky at lightning speed. However, he was in a wretched state. His robes were tattered, and his face was covered in dust.
After Chu Huyi came out, he stared at Duan Lingtian and said in a deep voice, "You're not Wu Hongqing!"
"I'm not Wu Hongqing?"
Duan Lingtian laughed. "What's wrong? Vice Hall Master Chu, are you saying that I'm not Wu Hongqing because you don't think that you're a match for me? "
"You need someone to believe what you're saying."
Duan Lingtian continued to laugh.
"Wu Hongqing isn't as strong as you are."
Chu Huyi's eyes turned cold as he asked in a deep voice, "Who are you? Did you possess Wu Hongqing? "
"You think you're stronger than Wu Hongqing just because you possess him?"
Duan Lingtian continued to laugh. "Do you really think that you'll possess the same cultivation base and strength as before you possess him?"
Upon hearing the conversation between Duan Ling Tian and Chu Hu Yi, the Palace Masters of the various Palace Halls present on the scene shook their heads one after another. "Vice Palace Master Chu, it seems like you find it difficult to accept this fact."
"That's right. Based on what Vice Hall Master Chu said, it's obvious that he doesn't need to fear Hall Master Chu anymore since he has broken through to the God King Realm. However, he didn't expect Hall Master Chu to be stronger than him! "
…
Although these branch palace masters were whispering, Chu Huyi could still hear them clearly. He was so angry that his expression was especially ugly.
When he looked at Duan Lingtian again, there was a hint of fear in his eyes.
"Who the hell are you?!"
This time, Chu Huyi asked Duan Lingtian telepathically.
"You don't need to know."
Duan Lingtian replied telepathically.
As soon as he finished speaking, Duan Lingtian waved his hand again and killed Chu Huyi in front of everyone.
The reason why Duan Lingtian didn't kill Chu Huyi earlier and only killed him now was because he didn't want to kill Chu Huyi too early.
To the people present, this would serve as a greater deterrent.
As expected, after Duan Lingtian killed Chu Huyi, the whole place fell silent.
"Now, does anyone still have any objections to my decision?"
After killing three higher deities and a lesser deity king, Duan Lingtian looked around and asked in an indifferent tone.
No one said anything.
Even if some people were still dissatisfied, they didn't dare to refute, afraid that they would follow in the footsteps of the previous four.
Those four were all top-notch existences in the Main Hall.
Yet, they were all killed by this Main Hall Hall Master just because of a few words!
They didn't think that the other party would show them any mercy.
"It seems like no one has any objections."
Duan Lingtian nodded in satisfaction. "Since that's the case, Zhuang Tianheng will be the host of the Main Hall Tournament. From today onwards, Zhuang Tianheng will be the Main Hall Hall Master.
"As for me, I will start cultivating in seclusion."
At this point, he looked at Zhuang Tianheng. "If anyone tries to make things difficult for you or goes against you, you can wake me up and let me come out of seclusion if you can't deal with it yourself.
I will help you deal with it. "
When Duan Ling Tian finished speaking, his tone was extremely cold.
At the same time, he glanced at the various branch hall masters and some of the higher-ups in the Main Hall, making them completely forget about making things difficult for Zhuang Tianheng, the new Hall Master, in the future.
"Zhuang Tianheng understands. Thank you for your trust, Lord Hall Master."
At this moment, Zhuang Tianheng stood up and thanked Duan Lingtian as he accepted the order.
"Alright."
Duan Lingtian nodded indifferently. Then, with a sway of his body, he disappeared. As for the Main Hall Tournament, he was not interested in watching it at all.
Currently, he was in a hurry to make a trip to the Title Temple's Main Hall's treasure vault to retrieve some items that would be helpful to his family.
