< Today's First Update! >
Millions of Xuan Beasts roared in unison after that soul-stirring and unforgettable howl. Then, two different howls resounded one after the other. Everyone in the Southern Heaven City could clearly hear them.
One of the two howls was clear, and the other was vigorous. They belonged to the Xuan Beast Kings of Tian Fa — Long Crane and Bear Mountain Mountain!
However, only a few people knew that these two were the instigators of the Xuan Beast Invasion.
With a swoosh, a huge white crane suddenly flew from the north to the south like a bolt of lightning. From afar, that white crane had a wingspan of at least fifty to sixty feet when fully spread out its wings. There was a bright red crane crown on its head. Under the bright sunlight, the crown shone with a dazzling brilliance. Its long sharp beak was like a sharp sword that could cut through the wind and clouds!
In the instant it flew over the City Lord's Mansion, everyone could clearly see that the huge white crane seemed to look down with disdain. Its huge wings covered the sky, and in an instant, the heavens and the earth dimmed. It was as if a dark cloud had suddenly floated over and then floated away, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Meanwhile, a huge silhouette was speeding through the forest in the distance. It didn't matter whether it was the road or the trees in front of it. It didn't stop for even a moment, and crashed into a big tree that could be hugged by it. And, it was broken in the blink of an eye. Then, it forcibly passed through the trunk of the tree. That silhouette had already run away without a trace by the time the tree collapsed with a loud rumble …
Li Jue Tian's silhouette suddenly flew to the roof. His hands and feet didn't move during this process. In fact, not even a single strand of his hair moved. But, he just flew up in a very abrupt manner. He stood still on the roof, and a vivid and lifelike shadow could be seen at his original position. But, it was gradually fading away.
This was no longer a movement technique. In fact, it was closer to a magic trick!
"Is this the Venerable Mei? This Li Jue Tian has failed to welcome you! "Li Jue Tian gathered his Xuan Qi, and his deep and dignified voice echoed from afar. This could be seen from the fact that he had taken some time to speak after he had ascended to the roof. He was afraid that he would lose face in front of this Lord of Tian Fa, and was unwilling to be at a disadvantage.
That sonorous voice suddenly rose into the air and slowly spread out. It floated towards the south in a solemn manner. The people present initially heard it to be calm, but once the voice spread out, it was as if thunder was roaring and ten thousand horses were galloping through the mountains and valleys. Its momentum was unusually great.
His voice echoed in the forest like a tide. After a long while, he finally rested.
"… My apologies for not welcoming you earlier …
… I failed to welcome you from afar …
… Welcome from afar …
… Welcome …
Welcome … "
Cries of alarm resounded in the surrounding forest. It was evident that some of the low-level Xuan Beasts had been shaken by Li Jue Tian's voice. This had given rise to a lot of panic.
One had to admit that Li Jue Tian's Sound Transmission Technique wasn't as good as the Tian Fa Beast King's roar. Moreover, it wasn't as good as the Xuan Fa Beast King's roar. But, they were still on the same level in terms of their realms.
A long, long time passed.
A clear voice rang out unhurriedly. Everyone clearly understood that the person who spoke was at least a few dozen miles away from them, but when they heard the voice, they felt as if this person was speaking to them right in front of them.
This person's voice was very strange. It was neutral and calm. It was impossible to tell whether this person was a man or a woman.
"Li Jue Tian … ah … so it's you. Who else could have such a profound cultivation? Haha … no wonder. I was wondering why my two younger brothers were so furious. They wouldn't even pay attention to an ordinary person. In fact, they even suffered a loss. Not bad, not bad. Li Jue Tian, you've made progress. You've truly made progress. "
Everyone looked at each other in dismay. They felt as if their scalps were going to explode. Li Jue Tian was an apex figure in everyone's eyes. He was publicly acknowledged as the second of the 'Eight Great Masters'.
However, this person didn't have the attitude of an equal. In fact, he had even complimented him by saying, "You've made progress."
This compliment was like a teacher saying to a well-behaved and obedient child in a kindergarten, "Little friend, you've made progress. You're such a good kid …"
Li Jue Tian's voice was matchless and powerful. However, the opposite party's voice was calm, and didn't seem to be exerting any strength. But, which one of them wasn't an expert? How could they not hear that this person's cultivation was much higher than Li Jue Tian's? It wasn't just one level! Even if they were at the same level, it would at least be like the difference between the Solitary Eagle and Li Jue Tian.
Li Jue Tian's voice had resonated from the same distance. But, the opposite party's words hadn't been echoed. An ordinary person's cough would've resonated in this mountainous environment. But, he hadn't been able to get an echo even though he was dozens of kilometers away.
[What kind of control is this?] Just this control ability alone was already at the acme of perfection and had reached the pinnacle of perfection!
Li Jue Tian raised his voice and said, "The cause of this matter is that these two have provoked my Xue Hun Manor for no reason. I, Li Jue Tian, should've retaliated. But, where did I go wrong? And, how can Venerable Mei not see who's the one who's suffered a loss? This Xue Hun Manor is this Old Man's life's work. But, it has now been reduced to ashes. I don't know what Venerable Mei would say if I were to demand an explanation from Venerable Mei? "
Li Jue Tian's words had a hint of condemnation in them. The opposite party's cultivation was higher than his. However, Li Jue Tian was the second most powerful Great Master in the world. So, he couldn't show weakness even if he lost.
The distant voice suddenly became sharp, "Li Jue Tian! You've hit my younger brother. Do you think you're in the right? Do you think I'm so easy to bully? Li Jue Tian, are you sure that you're not dreaming? "
Everyone's hearts trembled at the same time. [This is another extremely protective master. He's unreasonable and cunning to such an extent. Today, my horizons have been broadened. Previously, I saw Supreme Master Jue Tian shielding his own son and avoiding the sharp topic. Then, I met another master who's even more unreasonable. I wonder if this is the cycle of karma and retribution …
Jun Moxie stroked his chin, and felt some appreciation in his heart. [Awesome! He has the same temperament as me. I'll definitely give some benefits to Venerable Mei in the future.] ...
"I wouldn't dare!" Li Jue Tian snorted and said, "It's just that justice is in the hearts of the people. There's a reason for everything. Even the world's number one expert can't be unreasonable! "
The man let out a long laugh. "Reason? Li Jue Tian, your joke isn't pleasant to listen to! Li Jue Tian, have you ever been reasonable with anyone in your life? How come you're the one being reasonable when it comes to your own situation? Justice is in the hearts of the people. You, Supreme Jue Tian, have just said this, but do you believe it? "
These words were very bitter. The so-called laws of the world were only used to bind ordinary people. They had no binding power over the strong people of the world.
Justice was in the hearts of the strong. But, it was just empty talk.
In the world of the strong, the one with the bigger fist was the one with the right to reason.
The man's words were a little sophistry, but they were the truth. Moreover, he had ridiculed Li Jue Tian. Jun Moxie felt very happy as he listened to this. He almost stepped forward and pointed at Li Jue Tian's nose and scolded him. [You old bastard! You keep saying that justice is in the hearts of the people. But, have you ever been reasonable? Has your son ever been reasonable when he snatched someone else's wife? Where is the justice?]
[The wicked will be tortured by the wicked.]
Li Jue Tian snorted heavily and said, "Venerable Mei's words seem to indicate that she's going to protect him without distinguishing between right and wrong?"
Great Master Li Jue Tian was the second-in-command of the Eight Great Masters. So, he didn't want to speak against his conscience. So, he avoided the previous topic, and made it clear. Moreover, more than half of the world's strongest experts were gathered here. So, it would be difficult for the Venerable Mei to deal with the formidable forces present here even if he had the ability to transcend the heavens.
The man spoke in a cold and unyielding voice, "I'm going to protect him. What can you do, Li Jue Tian? The Eight Great Masters have shaken the world in the secular world. But, I don't care about you! Li Jue Tian, please think about who you're talking to before you speak! "
The man paused as he spoke till here. It seemed as if he had something to say. But then, he suddenly roared in anger, and asked in a very fierce manner, "Li Jue Tian, when did you enter the Elusive Land of the Immortals? How dare you leave a wound on my Fourth Brother's body? You've got guts! "
The power of this roar was earth-shattering. In fact, even the winds and clouds in the sky were stirred up by this roar. It could be seen that the Lord of Tian Fa was very angry. It seemed that the injured Bear Shan Shan had arrived in front of him. So, he had also seen the wounds on his body.
Jun Moxie's heart stirred. [Hermitage? What kind of place is that? Why haven't I heard of it?] He looked around, and saw that everyone had a perplexed expression on their faces. It was obvious that they didn't know.
Jun Moxie pondered a little deeper while everyone was puzzled. The Hermitage wasn't something that he could touch upon for the time being. But, Li Jue Tian's ability to injure Bear Shan Shan was a Xuan Beast King of Tian Fa. It must be known that a Xuan Beast's physique was far superior to a human's. And, Bear Shan Shan was a Xuan Beast King. So, he had withstood the attacks of Shi Changxiao and Solitary Eagle. And, he hadn't sustained any serious injuries. In fact, he had even managed to escape unscathed.
So, it was easy to imagine the formidable defensive power of his body. But, Li Jue Tian had managed to injure Bear Shan Shan with the "Elusive Vein Splitting Sword".
"Let go when you must. Venerable Mei, don't provoke a calamity because of a moment's impulse." Li Jue Tian's voice was laced with warning, "Venerable Mei will have to think carefully if you cause too much trouble, and incite the dissatisfaction of the Holy Land, right?"
Li Jue Tian had unexpectedly evaded the question of when the other party would enter the Hermitage.
"Ha ha ha …" the man laughed out loud with a bone-chilling voice. His laughter reverberated in the air, and didn't stop for a long time. Then, he spoke word by word, "Li Jue Tian, are you threatening me with the Holy Land?"
