Yan Zhaoge spoke slowly, but the meaning behind his words was not all that polite.
It was not just the Sacred Sun Clan. During the chaos of the Decimating Abyss earlier, other than the Sacred Sun Clan, the Heavenly Thunder Hall had similarly been involved in launching the Anti-Sun Grand Formation to disrupt it.
If not for guarding against Infinite Boundless Mountain's Heaven Cleaving Axe, this Lord of the Heavenly Thunder Hall, Shen Li, would probably have come to Broad Creed Mountain as well.
While Lin Tianfeng and the others had died, the fury of all of Broad Creed Mountain towards the Heavenly Thunder Hall was not much less than that of the Sacred Sun Clan.
"Bald Shen, from what you have said, in my opinion, your Heavenly Thunder Hall and the Sacred Sun Clan are the traitors of the Nine Underworlds." Garbed in the Clear Qi Robe, Yuan Zhengfeng strode over in the direction of Shen Li, "My clan fought a bloody battle with the Decimating Abyss, finally exterminating them and even successfully preventing the Nine Underworlds from descending within my Broad Creed Mountain and the Eight Extremities World."
"In the course of the great battle, your Heavenly Thunder Hall and the Sacred Sun Clan disrupted our clan's Clear Qi Grand Formation together."
"Afterwards, you joined hands to attack us. What, do you want to take revenge for Decimating Abyss? To continue their unfinished business and let the Nine Underworlds descend? "
Shen Li gave a cold snort and his aura instantly went far away.
A Grand Elder and a First Seat Elder of their clan, two heavyweights, along with a great number of other experts, had perished at Broad Creed Mountain.
Not only would he be unable to take revenge, he would also have to flee.
It was easy to imagine how depressed this Cyan Thunder Martial Saint was feeling.
But at this moment, he had no choice but to retreat.
Not to mention that Shen Li was well aware of some matters and had never forgotten them, even if he had momentarily forgotten them, the battle between Yuan Zhengfeng and Huang Guanglie earlier would allow him to immediately recall them.
Once upon a time, 'Heaven's Equal' Yuan Zhengfeng was the strongest existence among his peers.
While he was not renowned for being invincible like his disciple Yan Di, suppressing his generation and looking down on all lifetimes, Yuan Zhengfeng had also created a legend of his own that year.
Yuan Zhengfeng had stepped into the peak of the Martial Grandmaster stage, the Transcending Mortality stage, much earlier than his peers Huang Guanglie, Shen Li, Yuan Tian and Xin Dongping, not to mention the slightly younger Song Wuliang and An Qinglin.
Back then, when everyone was still young and had just started to rise to fame, Yuan Zhengfeng was the most outstanding one. He was also the one who was looked upon as the most likely to become a Martial Sage in the shortest time among those of the same generation.
It was only because of his old injuries that Yuan Zhengfeng had remained in the Transcendental Realm all this time, which was why Huang Guanglie, Shen Li and the others had managed to catch up to him.
Yuan Zhengfeng, who had wasted many years, had finally crossed that threshold and transcended mortality and entered sainthood. This immediately awakened many people's dusty memories.
Of the previous six Martial Sages, aside from Old Man Mo, who was older and rarely fought, making it hard to determine his strength, the others were not a match for Yuan Zhengfeng at the same cultivation realm.
The awe-inspiring Huang Guanglie had been fighting Yuan Zhengfeng for many years. When he was in the Grandmaster Realm and Martial Grandmaster Realm, he had never won. The number of times he had lost to Yuan Zhengfeng could not be counted on one hand.
When the Lord of the Heavenly Thunder Hall, Shen Li, had clashed with Yuan Zhengfeng back then at the Martial Grandmaster realm, he had also suffered a crushing defeat.
Today, even though Yuan Zhengfeng had just stepped into the saint realm, it was still difficult for Shen Li to face him head-on.
Moreover, Yuan Zhengfeng still had the Sacred Artifact, the Clear Qi Robe, accompanying him!
If it was said that after leaving Broad Creed Mountain, even without the Great Sun Heaven Measuring Ruler, Huang Guanglie would still dare to battle Yuan Zhengfeng, without a Sacred Artifact in hand, Shen Li could only turn and flee.
While Shen Li retreated, Yuan Zhengfeng did not let him have it easy, directly pressuring over with a Heavenly Broad Creed Palm.
In the distance, in the direction where Shen Li was, the sky seemed to have collapsed and the horizon seemed to have distorted.
A muffled groan came from afar. Shen Li did not accept the battle at all. His body transformed into a bolt of lightning, forcefully enduring his injuries as he swiftly retreated.
Shen Li flew all the way, passing through the territory of the East Heaven Region where Broad Creed Mountain's martial practitioners had already shrunk earlier.
After exiting the Earth Domain, the Heavenly Thunder Hall martial practitioners had galloped here. Lin Tianfeng and the others had gone to Broad Creed Mountain in the Central Heaven Region, and there were others who had established a base of operations here.
But at this moment, these people watched in astonishment as their Hall Master flew past them. Rumbling thunder light wrapped around all of them. He didn't stop and continued flying in the direction of the Earth Domain, passing through it and returning to the Thunder Dominion.
Lin Zhou was amongst them, and when he saw there was only Shen Li by himself, he couldn't help but be astounded. "Grand Master, my Father and Martial Ancestral Uncle Yue …"
Shen Li's face was livid and he did not say a word.
Lin Zhou's face instantly turned deathly pale.
He composed himself, sucking in a deep breath, wanting to ask further.
However, looking at that terrifying expression on Shen Li's face, Lin Zhou opened his mouth, yet was unable to utter a sound.
"Grand Master should have just suffered a small loss and is in a bad mood, thus looking like this …" Lin Zhou thought to himself, "Nothing will happen to Father and the others."
"Fighting Broad Creed Mountain, not having taken it down in the end, losing face?"
Lin Zhou gritted his teeth, "But the Sacred Sun Clan's Huang Guanglie has already left seclusion. With the Great Sun Heaven Measuring Ruler in hand and Grand Master also restraining Infinite Boundless Mountain's Heaven Cleaving Axe, how could they not be able to take down Broad Creed Mountain who had just been heavily injured by the Decimating Abyss?"
"Jade Sea City and Turbid Wave Pavilion have also been restrained by the Flame Devils on the East Sea. It would be impossible for them to traverse the Earth Domain to help."
Lin Zhou thought, "Perhaps it is because the Sacred Sun Clan obtained the Clear Qi Robe that Grand Master is so flustered and exasperated. This is the most likely scenario."
If Broad Creed Mountain was destroyed, with even their Sacred Artifact, the Clear Qi Robe, also falling into the hands of the Sacred Sun Clan, the Sacred Sun Clan's momentum would truly be hard to resist, showing signs of sweeping through the entire world.
At that time, the Heavenly Thunder Hall might have to make peace with Infinite Boundless Mountain, joining hands with Jade Sea City.
It was to the extent that even Turbid Wave Pavilion would find it hard to continue remaining neutral, having no choice but to give up on its neutral stance. Otherwise, they too would have to look up to the Sacred Sun Clan.
Lin Zhou kept comforting himself.
However, after having returned to the Heavenly Thunder Hall and having calmed down, Shen Li held an urgent discussion with the other longtime Elders who had stayed behind, news from the outside world had also broken Lin Zhou's hopes.
This Thunder Rumbling Young Master who was already gradually revealing his flair as the number one of the Heavenly Thunder Hall's younger generation shut himself in a room by himself.
Anyone who passed by the door of his room could feel the oppressive and violent feeling, as if a thunderstorm was brewing.
Even Yan Shan, who had always been at odds with Lin Zhou, did not dare to approach Lin Zhou at this moment.
After learning of this, the bigwigs of the Heavenly Thunder Hall all sighed.
One day, the door suddenly opened and Lin Zhou walked out.
Dark clouds covered his face, his gaze even colder and gloomier.
"I have carefully managed and painstakingly schemed precisely to defy the heavens and change my fate, but in the end, Father still left me." Lin Zhou's expression was wooden as he gazed towards the south-west horizon, in the direction of the Heaven Domain and Broad Creed Mountain.
"Working hard for so long, still futile at the end of the day. What's the use of my efforts then? I might as well just go with the flow …" Flames of fury suddenly surged within Lin Zhou's gaze, "Otherwise, I might as well overturn the heavens and overturn the earth!"
"If I don't destroy your Broad Creed Mountain, I am not human!"
