"What does that mean?"
Zhang Xuan's face darkened as if he was bound by shackles, rendering him unable to move at all.
He was only here to borrow the array flags. It was fine if he didn't want to borrow them, but what was the point of making a move?
"The First Elder of the Zhang clan, Zhang Wuheng, has sent a message over, requesting for our Sanctum of Sages to hand Zhang Xuan over to us. I thought that there was something wrong with the message, but since you have appeared and admitted to the conflict between you and the Zhang clan, and you are willing to resolve it peacefully, why don't you stay here and wait for them to arrive? Don't worry, as a member of the Sanctum of Sages, as long as your crimes aren't too severe, Elder Ge and I will be able to mediate on your behalf!"
Zhan shi said.
"Great Elder?"
Not expecting such a matter, Zhang Xuan frowned and shook his head. "I still have matters to attend to, so I need to leave as soon as possible. I don't have the time to wait for them!"
With Zhao Ya's life hanging by a thread, there was no time to waste. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to use the Sanctum Head Token to fly back from the Zhang Clan.
Teleportation, learning, getting beaten up, borrowing the flag … He had already wasted more than ten minutes. If he didn't hurry up and something happened to Zhao Ya, wouldn't he regret it for the rest of his life?
Besides, the conflict between him and the Zhang family couldn't be mediated with just a few words. This man in front of him couldn't do it. Even Hall Master Mingshi Tang might not be able to do it.
"That's not up to you! We are only responsible for capturing you and handing you over to them! "
Seeing that not only was the young man not afraid, he even said that he was busy. Elder Ge shook his head. With a flick of his wrist, a rope materialized in the air, and in the blink of an eye, he tied the young man up tightly.
"I'll settle my grudge with the Zhang family on my own. Right now, I really have something urgent to attend to, and I need to leave. Please let me through!"
Zhang Xuan frowned.
"No matter what urgent matter you have, as long as the matter regarding the Zhang family isn't resolved, you can stay here!"
Zhan shi shook his head before instructing, "Elder Ge, take him away for the time being. I'll inform Elder Wuhen right now and have him send someone over!"
"Yes!"
Elder Ge nodded. With a tug of his hand, the rope tightened, and Elder Ge's skin began to tighten. Geji! "Creak!"
"Since you're not willing to let me pass, then don't blame me for offending you …"
Zhang Xuan knew that there was no point in continuing the conversation, so he shook his head and said, "Inferno Qilin, I'll be counting on you!" "Alright, I'll be counting on you!"
Rumble!
As soon as he finished speaking, the room shook, and the Qilin Beast suddenly appeared in front of everyone, burning fiercely.
With a gentle swipe of its claw, the rope binding Zhang Xuan broke into pieces and fell to the ground.
Hula!
After cutting off the rope, the thick claw flicked again.
Bang! Bang!
Before Zhan shi and Elder Ge could even process what was going on, they were already sent flying into the wall. Their chests were pulsating, and fresh blood seeped from the corners of their lips.
The Inferno Qilin was a Saint 9-dan advanced stage expert in the first place, and with Zhang Xuan's help, it had managed to raise its cultivation to Saint 9-dan pinnacle. Even though it had sustained some injuries in its battle with the First Elder and had yet to fully recover from its injuries, it was still not an existence that the two of them could deal with.
"Activate the formation …"
Zhan shi did not expect the other party to release such a powerful tamed beast all of a sudden. With a livid face, he tapped his finger furiously.
Weng!
The formation that had been prepared in the room came to life, and a powerful pressure burst forth from the surroundings, shrouding the Inferno Qilin in the blink of an eye.
They were intending to use the formation to trap Zhang Xuan, but at this moment, they had no choice but to stop this huge fellow first.
Otherwise, if they allowed it to go on a rampage, no one would be able to stop it.
Roar!
Bound by the formation, the Inferno Qilin roared furiously. It whipped its thick tail furiously, and ripples immediately appeared in the room.
Even though it was a Saint 9-dan pinnacle beast, the formation in the room of the Sanctum of Sages had been left behind by the predecessors of the Sanctum of Sages, so it was unable to break free in the short term.
"Let's capture Zhang Xuan first. As long as we subdue him, no matter how powerful his tamed beast is, it won't dare to retaliate!"
Seeing that Zhang Xuan had such a formidable tamed beast, Zhan shi knew that the young man before him must have caused quite a ruckus in the Zhang Clan. Knowing that there was no way he could afford to waste any time, he bellowed furiously as he leaped forward to grab Zhang Xuan.
Capture the ringleader first!
No matter how powerful the Inferno Qilin was, it was just a tamed beast. As long as its master was captured, it wouldn't be able to do anything.
"Humph!"
He had been ganged up on in the Zhang clan, and now, he was being captured here as well. With a livid face, Zhang Xuan raised his palm and bellowed, "Knock those two down!"
Hu!
Right after those words were spoken, the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast appeared before Zhang Xuan and raised its hand.
Peng! Peng!
The charging Zhan shi and Elder Ge were sent flying once more.
"Saint 9-dan? Isn't it only at Saint 8-dan pinnacle? "
Elder Ge exclaimed in horror as he spurted a mouthful of blood in midair.
He had seen the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast before, and back then, it was only at Saint 8-dan pinnacle. How did it manage to reach Saint 9-dan within a short month?
Even though there was only a single cultivation realm between Saint 8-dan and Saint 9-dan, the difference between them was like the difference between heaven and earth. This was especially so for saint beasts. Once they reached Saint 9-dan, their fighting prowess would be on a whole new level!
Elder Ge wasn't the only one who was shocked. Zhan shi also felt as if his head was going to explode, and he was on the verge of going insane.
It was already shocking enough for a Saint 9-dan saint beast to appear, but two of them at once … Just how in the world did they manage to tame them?
It was no wonder even the Zhang clan couldn't hold them back. Just these two saint beasts alone were more than enough to deal with!
"Stop it!"
Knowing that this was not the time for him to be shocked, Elder Ge gritted his teeth and whipped out a sword. With a flick of his sword, a massive burst of sword qi immediately sealed off the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast's path. The Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast was intending to charge forward to teach the other party a lesson, but it was stopped by the burst of sword qi.
The Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast had just achieved a breakthrough to Saint 9-dan, but Zhan shi had been stuck at the same realm for many years. Not to mention, he was using a weapon and a battle technique as well.
"Ignore them. Help the Inferno Qilin break the formation and attack this area!"
Knowing that the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast was slightly weaker than the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast, Zhang Xuan instructed through zhenqi telepathy.
Realizing the severity of the situation, the Netherworld Azure Dragon Beast's massive body darted over to the designated location, and with a flick of its tail, it swooped down.
Kacha!
A crisp sound rang out, followed by a violent tremor. The spell formation trapping the Qilin beast was torn apart in an instant. The spell formation had been forcefully destroyed, and the Palace Lord Hall could no longer withstand it and collapsed with a loud rumble.
Having broken free from its shackles, the Inferno Qilin felt as if its dignity had been challenged. It glared at the duo furiously, and with a ferocious roar, it pierced right through Zhan shi's sword qi to appear before them.
It raised its claws and swooped down.
Padah! Padah!
Zhan shi and Elder Ge hurriedly raised their arms to defend themselves, but they felt as if their arms would explode at any moment. Geji! Geji! Their bones were on the verge of breaking.
Even master teachers of the same cultivation realm would find it hard to deal with a Saint 9-dan pinnacle beast, let alone them.
"Zhang Xuan, do you know what you are doing? This is the Sanctum of Sages, a place where the predecessors of the past live. You'd better think twice before making a move on the deputy sanctum head and the elders. Don't make a single mistake and end up incurring eternal regret! "
Elder Ge bellowed. Knowing that he would be reduced to a meat patty if he failed to hold on, he bellowed furiously.
