"Sword-bearing Elder of Heavy Sword Peak, Elder Lie!"
For a moment, everyone cupped their hands in respect, including Duanmu, Ximen, and Shan Yang.
The person with the highest status in the Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect was undoubtedly the Sect Master. The Sect Master was also the Heavenly Sword Peak's Peak Master, and below him were the Peak Masters of the four great peaks.
The Sect Master and the Peak Masters were the ones with the highest authority in the sect, but they rarely showed their faces. The ones who truly held the power were the Sword-Bearing Elders of the various Peaks.
Each of the five peaks had two Sword-Bearing Elders, and there were also eight Guardian Elders below them. These people were the symbol of the Tiangang Sword Sect's strength. As for the Dragon Gate Gang's elders …
There were more than a hundred managing elders of the Dragon Gate Gang. Every year, three elders would take turns to be on duty, while the rest would be in seclusion. Their status was even lower than that of many disciples of the Guardian Elders.
"Didn't you want to fight, Ximen Jin?" Elder Lie said with a mocking expression.
"Elder … Elder Lie, I … I was just impulsive," Ximen Jin said, trembling.
"Impulsive? Then you'll have to pay the price for your impulsiveness. Go back and pack up, then scram."
Get lost …
Ximen Jin immediately sat on the ground. Elder Lie's' scram 'didn't just mean to scram out of this place, but to scram out of the Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect.
He was a Wood Star Realm Elder. If he lost his status as an Elder of the Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect, just the enemies he had offended would be able to cut him into pieces.
"Elder Lie, please have mercy …" Ximen Jin lay on the ground, not daring to get up.
Elder Lie didn't seem to have any intention of showing mercy. Just as he was about to speak, he suddenly frowned. "Since Elder Xue is here, why don't you show yourself?"
Elder Xue...
Everyone was startled and started to look around.
Someone who could be made an elder by a Sword Holding Elder was definitely a Sword Holding Elder, and there was only one Sword Holding Elder surnamed Xue in the entire Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect.
That was the Sword Bearer of the Flowing Light faction, Xue Buqun!
"Elder Lie, it's just a small matter. Why are you so angry?" The voice came from all directions, but the figure still did not appear.
"This is considered a small matter?" Elder Lie said unhappily.
"When a sect is big, there will naturally be all kinds of people. Although Ximen Jin is hateful, we should give him a chance to change. Why don't we punish him and make him an elder of the mine?"
"Elder Ore Mine, you're letting him off too lightly."
Elder Lie glanced to the east and then looked at Ximen Jin. "Go and guard the Sword Mound."
"Ah …"
Ximen Jin's cheeks trembled. After a while, he nodded his head helplessly and agreed. Compared to being chased out of the Heavenly Dipper Sword Sect to guard the Sword Tomb, it was much better.
Elder Lie no longer looked at Ximen Jin. Instead, he nodded towards Zhou Yang. There was a hint of something in his smile that Zhou Yang did not understand.
Not long after, Elder Lie turned into a ray of light and disappeared. The pressure of heaven and earth around the trial platform finally disappeared as well.
Everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
"Cherish your remaining days." Shangguan Ting glanced at Zhou Yang and disappeared into the crowd.
"I thought this place was boring and I was prepared to leave. But now, I don't want to leave." Invincible Jin looked at Zhou Yang and smiled.
"When did you find out?" Zhou Yang smiled and asked. He knew that Invincible Jin recognized him.
"If I still can't tell, then I'd be a fool. When I saw your Star Soul in the Headwind Valley, I already guessed it. I just didn't dare to be sure until today …"
Invincible Jin smiled and whispered, "In this world, other than Zhou Yang, who else would be so arrogant?"
"Haha …"
The two of them laughed loudly.
At night, the entire Dragon Gate Gang was still immersed in the battle during the day. Everyone was discussing Zhou Yang's trial intensely. Only the courtyard of Xia Bingxin and Zi Yuan was filled with laughter.
After the battle during the day, Invincible Jin invited Zhou Yang to Xia Bingxin's courtyard. Mu Xinya and Zi Yuan naturally came as well. The two of them were very curious about Zhou Yang's true strength.
During this time, Xia Bingxin also came back. However, Xia Bingxin seemed to have a lot on her mind. Although she was surprised by Zhou Yang's strength, she was still very worried. In the evening, she left alone.
After three rounds of wine, Zhou Yang finally sent the two sisters away with the reason that he needed to rest.
Invincible Jin closed the door and sat down at the table. He sighed.
"Brother Jin, why are you sighing?" Zhou Yang asked curiously. He rarely saw Invincible Jin sigh.
"The situation in the imperial city is not optimistic." Invincible Jin shook his head.
"The imperial city …" Zhou Yang also frowned.
"I received news that your father's situation is not good. Although the Yue Clan has always been on your father's side, the fight for the crown prince position is getting more and more intense. The Zhao Clan has joined hands with the Xu Clan and many other clans in the imperial city. On one hand, they want to make the second prince the emperor. On the other hand, they want to eliminate the dissidents.
"They even dare to touch the Jin Clan?" Zhou Yang was a little surprised. It should be known that the Golden Blade King was not someone to be trifled with. He was one of the few strong warriors who had the title of King in the entire Dragon Martial Country.
"If it's only them, of course they wouldn't dare to touch it. I think it should be the queen. You should know that the queen is from the Nangong Clan."
The Nangong Clan was one of the four great clans in the continent.
Zhou Yang nodded. He started to understand why Jin Bu Bai was so worried. The Nan Gong family was one of the four great families on the continent. In terms of overall power, they might not be able to fight against a kingdom, but they were on the same level as the royal family. In the three kingdoms, no single faction could defeat them.
With the Nan Gong Clan holding the fort, even if the Yue Clan and the Jin Clan banded together, it would be hard for them to resist.
"Is there any good news?" Zhou Yang said helplessly.
"Yes, but this good news is bad news for many people." Jin Bubai smiled cunningly.
"What?" Zhou Yang asked anxiously.
Update/New Soon,/G *
"Demonic cultivators?" Invincible Jin whispered. "I don't know when it started, but demonic cultivators started openly walking around the three big countries, especially the Dragonmartial Country. You might not know this, but one month ago, the biggest sect in the eastern region, Profound Heaven Sect, was annihilated. Rumor has it that the culprits were a bunch of monsters with beast heads and human bodies."
"They …" Zhou Yang said in shock.
"That's right, it's them. However, not many people know who they are."
Zhou Yang thought for a while and decided to tell Invincible Jin about the black cat in Upwind Valley.
Invincible Jin was very surprised. Although he had seen demons like Lustful Demon and Hungry Demon, he didn't know about the black cat.
"Scary. It's so scary. We've become the sinners of the continent." Although Invincible Jin said that, he had a smile on his face.
"Sinners? I've become the sinners of the continent. Plus, my father is still in prison." Murderous intent flashed in Zhou Yang's eyes.
