"Elder Mu …"
Liu Lujie and Wang Jiandong froze on the spot.
Elder Mu and the others had come here to settle the matter, but as soon as they made a move, they were killed as well.
That was the strongest group of inner disciples!
Big brother …
Didn't he feel that the sword in his hand was too heavy?
Didn't he feel the powerful Sword Intent in their bodies?
Those who wielded such powerful Sword Intent couldn't possibly be ordinary disciples …
Yet, he killed them so easily?
But more importantly … Elder Mu and the others had clearly tried to retaliate, so why didn't they stop him at all?
It was as if he had just crushed an ant …
It was still acceptable for core disciples to be no match for him, but to kill more than a dozen Heavenly True Immortal realm elders with a single slash … How could this be?
Just how powerful was the other party?
It was laughable that he had thought that the other party was on par with him …
Liu Lujie's teeth were chattering non-stop.
To be honest, he was starting to doubt his own existence.
He turned his gaze back to I Am Low Profile, only to see that the other party was still engaged in a battle with the others.
He didn't seem to be affected by the fact that he had killed more than a dozen elders. In fact, it was possible that he didn't even know that the other party was an elder!
Ordinary people were indeed nothing in the eyes of the other party!
…
"So many people …"
Just as Liu Lujie had guessed, Zhang Xuan didn't notice that the other party was an elder.
The other party was dressed in the robes of an inner disciple, and he looked to be in his early twenties. Even if he said that he was an elder, he had to believe that!
It wouldn't have mattered if he had just fought them slowly, but the zhenqi in his body was limited. If he didn't kill all of them as soon as possible, he might really lose!
If he lost, he wouldn't be able to get his money, and he might even lose his thirty-two Sword Pavilion Coins as well!
That was already his entire fortune!
He couldn't allow that to happen!
Thus, he couldn't allow them to stall for time any longer!
A one-on-one battle …
Forget it!
Cut the crap!
Forget it too!
No matter who you are, as long as you can withstand my attacks, I don't mind fighting you one-on-one. If you can't, I'll just kill you!
As for Elder Mu and the others … In his eyes, killing them was no different from killing ordinary disciples. It was just that the few of them seemed to be a little more nimble.
I've already depleted a third of my zhenqi, I need to hurry up … "
Raising his head to take a look, he saw that the number of people had increased from seven to eight hundred to four thousand. As time passed, more and more inner disciples would swarm over. He could not afford to waste any more time!
Whoosh!
Turning into a shadow, Zhang Xuan's speed became even faster.
…
"If even Elder Mu isn't a match for him, it'll be nigh impossible for us to see through his flaws. Let's hurry back, or else the elders will surely fly into a rage …"
Liu Lujie asked after recovering from his shock.
"Yes!" Wang Jiandong nodded.
The current situation was no longer something they could control. If they continued to stay here, they would only become a joke.
Just as the two of them were about to leave the main hall, a sword qi suddenly shot out from the crowd.
Patter! Patter!
Liu Lujie and Wang Jiandong's vision darkened, and their heads fell to the ground once more, bouncing back and forth like rubber balls.
"Motherf * cker …"
"It's already the third time …"
Tears streamed down their cheeks.
Who the hell did he offend … He was beheaded three times in a row.
What the f * ck!
Ever since he had started practicing swordsmanship, nothing had ever happened to him. On the other hand, I Am Low Profile had actually 'died' three times in just twenty minutes.
The two experts felt a chill running down their backs, and they felt like they were going insane.
When Liu Lujie's consciousness finally returned to the main hall, he saw Elder Mu and the others seated on the chairs, not saying a single word. The entire room was so silent that one could hear a pin drop.
"Elder …"
Liu Lujie stood up.
It was only at this moment that the elders finally realized what was going on.
"He was beheaded by that fellow?"
"It seems like it …"
"How could he be so fast?"
"I couldn't react in time …"
"I couldn't react in time either …"
…
The mouths of the elders twitched uncontrollably, as if they had seen a ghost.
They were all True Immortals, and while their comprehension of swordsmanship couldn't match up to the geniuses of the core disciples, their many years of experience had given them a deep understanding of swordsmanship. Even though they were all Ancient Sages 1-dan, they were still far stronger than ordinary inner disciples!
But now … before they could even finish their words, their heads had already been severed …
They couldn't help but doubt their own existence.
This was especially so for Elder Mu. If there was a hole in the ground right now, he would have dived right into it.
It was just a moment ago that he had confidently declared that Liu Lujie wouldn't be able to stop that fellow due to his low cultivation, and that he would be able to do it with ease … Yet, before he could even finish his words, he had been beheaded …
How embarrassing!
In all his years as an elder, he had never been so embarrassed before!
"What should we do now?"
After a long moment of silence, one of the elders asked.
"This …"
Elder Mu hesitated for a moment before turning to Liu Lujie and asking, "What's that fellow's name?"
"I'm a low-profile person!"
Liu Lujie nodded.
"Low-profile?" Elder Mu clutched at his heart as his body convulsed uncontrollably, and he nearly fainted on the spot.
Not only had a single person dared to challenge the entire inner disciples, he had even dared to kill an elder …
Low-profile …
Why did this word sound so jarring to his ears?
"Don't tell anyone that we were here …"
Suppressing the urge to explode, Elder Mu stood up.
"You weren't here?" Liu Lujie was astonished.
Did this mean that … they were going to ignore this matter as well?
"Let's go …"
After saying those words, Elder Mu and the others turned around and left. In the next moment, they had disappeared from the courtyard without a trace, as if they had never been there in the first place.
"Senior …" Wang Jiandong's face turned livid.
"Elder Mu didn't have a choice either. As an elder, he should have dealt with this matter, but he ended up being killed instead. All we can do now is feign ignorance … Otherwise, how are we supposed to live?"
Liu Lujie said with a bitter smile.
It was not that they didn't want to interfere in this matter, but they really couldn't!
For an elder of the same cultivation realm to be killed by a disciple … If news of this were to spread, they would be utterly humiliated!
…
"Are we really going to ignore this matter?"
On the back of the aerial saint beast, the elder who had spoken earlier couldn't help but turn to Elder Mu.
"Of course not. We'll head to the Sword Gazebo right now and find out what I Am Low Profile is up to!"
Elder Mu shook his head.
"The Sword Gazebo is where the sect controls the Ethereal Hall, so it's indeed possible to find out the other party's exact location. However, as inner disciples, we don't have the authority to access such information!"
The elder who had spoken earlier paused for a moment before replying.
If the Ethereal Token represented access, the Sword Gazebo would be the server of the local network.
It was indeed possible to find out the other party's exact IP address through the server, but since the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion was using the Ethereal Hall as a platform, the other party's identity was a secret.
They were only inner elders, so they didn't have the authority to access the other party's IP address.
In fact, even the sect leader wouldn't be able to access the other party's IP address so casually. Otherwise, it could easily cause the hearts of those in the sect to waver, resulting in irreparable losses.
After all, only by concealing one's identity would one not have to worry about the reputation of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion. If this matter was exposed to the public, the entire Ethereal Hall of the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion would crumble.
"I don't need his exact information …" Elder Mu shook his head. "I just need to know his exact strength!"
"His exact strength?"
To activate the Ethereal Token, one had to drip a droplet of blood on it. Thus, it was possible to accurately gauge one's true strength.
"You want to confirm whether he's really an inner disciple or not?"
Someone asked.
"That's right. Given how formidable his swordsmanship is, I suspect that it's just a prank played by one of the core disciples. If his cultivation hasn't reached Pseudo Immortal yet, he's definitely an inner disciple.
Elder Mu replied.
The crowd nodded in realization.
That was right.
If the other party was a core disciple, it would be a huge blow to the inner disciples.
If the other party was an inner disciple, it would be embarrassing, but at the very least, it wouldn't be too humiliating for an inner disciple to lose to an inner disciple.
In fact, this loss could still be salvaged.
As long as he told the other disciples that it was possible for an inner disciple to reach such a level, it could very well lead to an even greater cultivation frenzy.
It didn't take long for the aerial beast to arrive at the Sword Gazebo, and Elder Mu passed his Elder Seal over.
"I want to know the exact strength of a person with the nickname 'I Am Low Profile'."
Taking a deep breath, Elder Mu revealed his purpose for coming here.
Weng!
A light flickered on the wall before him, and a line of words surfaced on it — Dimension Shatterer realm consummation!
"Ancient Sage 4-dan pinnacle?"
"Does that mean that he's really an inner disciple?"
"The minimum requirement to become a core disciple is to reach Pseudo Immortal realm, but it seems like he hasn't reached Dimension Shatterer realm consummation yet …"
"Since when did such a powerful inner disciple appear?"
…
A huge commotion broke out in the crowd.
Seeing how powerful the other party was, they couldn't help but wonder if it was one of the core disciples who had come to cause trouble. However, upon seeing this, they finally understood that the other party was an inner disciple!
Just that … how could there be such a powerful inner disciple in the inner disciples? How could they, as elders, be unaware of it?
…
"How is it? Did you find the pill seller? "
Bai Feng asked as he walked over to Elder Bai Ye's residence upon seeing Bai Ruanqing.
He still had to take care of the Old Master, so he had returned right after escorting Bai Ruanqing to the inner disciple market.
"I didn't …"
Bai Ruanqing shook her head with a reddened face.
"What happened?"
Seeing that there was something wrong with Bai Ruanqing's state of mind, Bai Feng couldn't help but ask.
"It's … Earlier, an inner disciple challenged me to a duel, so I entered the Ethereal Hall and had a duel with him …"
Bai Ruanqing swiftly recounted what had happened earlier.
"You said that … you executed the Heavysnow Swordsmanship that I imparted to you, but you were defeated in a single move?"
Bai Feng widened his eyes in shock.
"Yes …" Bai Ruanqing replied awkwardly.
"The other party's swordsmanship made me feel that the Heavysnow Swordsmanship was nothing more than trash …"
"How is that possible? Even though the Heavysnow Swordsmanship isn't the most famous sword art in the Ascendant Cloud Sword Pavilion, it's still not something that an inner disciple would be a match for … "
Bai Feng frowned. He paused for a moment before asking, "Do you have the Ethereal Token of the inner disciples? I want to take a look myself! "
