The Great Elder and the Second Elder of the Mo Clan came in a menacing manner. First, they looked for Feng Pingsheng. Then, they named Chen Qingzong.
"Why are the two of you looking for Chen Qingzong?" Feng Pingsheng asked in return. The expressions and tone of these two people gave him a bad feeling.
"This morning, Chen Qingzong found Family Mo's third elder. After he left, Family Mo's third elder died from a sword wound," the head elder said coldly. The first elder of the Mo clan said coldly. Feng Pingsheng's heart couldn't help but thump as his expression changed slightly. He subconsciously thought that the death of the third elder of the Mo clan was caused by Chen Qingzong.
After all, even Zhao Zhongxing, who was at the eighth layer of the Foundation Realm, was easily killed by Chen Qingzong. Killing Family Mo's third elder, who was at the ninth layer of the Foundation Realm, was not impossible.
"The two of you, Chen Qingzong is only at the sixth layer of the Foundation Realm. How could he kill Family Mo's third elder?" Feng Pingsheng's words were different from what he thought.
"A mere sixth layer of the Foundation Realm is naturally not a match for Family Mo's third elder, but what if someone else snuck in?" Family Mo's second elder gloomily stared at Feng Pingsheng. His voice was cold and sharp, but there was a hidden meaning.
"Second Elder Mo, are you questioning me?" Feng Pingsheng sneered. His eyes were as sharp as swords, causing Family Mo's second elder's heart to skip a beat.
Feng Pingsheng was known as the number one expert in Qinglin City. In the entire Family Mo, aside from the ancestor, who was in closed door cultivation, only the family head could contend with him. He was not a match for Feng Pingsheng.
However, he couldn't lose Family Mo's reputation. The second elder faked a smile and his eyes were dark. "I didn't say that."
Although he said that, the doubt in his voice was even more obvious.
Feng Pingsheng was furious, but there was nothing he could do. Was he supposed to draw his sword and kill him?
That was not a difficult task. The problem was how to deal with the aftermath after killing him.
Start a war with Family Mo?
No, Seven Swords Towers wasn't prepared for this either.
He was the master of the number one Sword Tower, and every move he made had great implications. He had to consider the entire Seven Swords Towers.
"Tower Lord Feng, there's no point in arguing. We'll know once we ask that Chen Qingzong," Family Mo's First Elder said in a low voice.
Feng Pingsheng pondered for a while. He was also very curious, so he sent someone to invite Chen Qingzong over.
"Chen Qingzong, let me ask you, did you go to Family Mo this morning to look for my Family Mo's Third Elder?" Family Mo's Second Elder saw Chen Zong arrive and immediately stood up. His cold eyes stared fiercely at Chen Zong.
"I killed Mo Zhihong," Chen Zong said. Feng Pingsheng was stunned. Family Mo's First Elder and Second Elder were also stunned.
For most people, even if they killed someone, they would deny it unless they had concrete evidence. Nobody was like Chen Zong, who directly admitted to it without even asking any questions.
How arrogant was that?
Feng Pingsheng couldn't help but feel anxious. Even if it was true, he shouldn't admit it so directly.
Family Mo's First Elder and Second Elder were stunned, then their expressions turned cold.
"What grudge do you have with Family Mo's Third Elder that you want to kill him?" Grand Elder Mo said in a low voice.
"Mo Zhihong instigated Shang Zhonglei to challenge my father and caused my father's death. As his son, I have to avenge him," Chen Zong said calmly. Every word was sonorous and powerful, like the clashing of swords.
Avenging one's father was the natural order of things.
"Mo Zhihong was Family Mo's Third Elder and my younger brother. You killed my younger brother, so should I kill you too?" Second Elder Mo said sternly. His eyes were sharp and cold, like an eagle watching a wolf. His overbearing aura was incomparably fierce as it rushed towards Chen Zong.
"If that's the case, let's settle this with our swords," Chen Zong was even more direct.
Killing Mo Zhihong was to avenge Chen Zhenghong. As for Family Mo, Chen Zong didn't intend to be enemies with them. However, if Family Mo wanted to avenge Mo Zhihong, Chen Zong wouldn't be able to control them.
Regardless of whether they were enemies or not, Chen Zong wasn't afraid. He would take it all on.
"Fine." Family Mo's Second Elder's voice became colder and colder. He thought it would take a while to come up with a solution, but he didn't expect the other party to be so arrogant and direct. He could save time and kill him directly to avenge his younger brother Mo Zhihong and strengthen Family Mo's reputation. It was killing two birds with one stone.
Chen Zong spoke too quickly. Feng Pingsheng didn't have time to stop him.
What was said couldn't be taken back. Although Feng Pingsheng wasn't happy with Chen Zong, he knew the severity of the situation. He decided that if Chen Zong couldn't defeat the other party, he would save him. This was for the sake of the late Chen Zhenghong.
Grand Elder Mo didn't have any reaction to Second Elder Mo's decision.
"Die!" Second Elder Mo bent his fingers into a claw. A cold blue light condensed on his fingers, and a sharp aura swept out. Vaguely, there was a sharp sound. As Second Elder Mo leaped up, the air swept out like a gust of wind. It was as if an eagle was swooping down.
The terrifying Qi was sharp, fast, fierce, and full of murderous intent.
Feng Pingsheng couldn't help but place his hand on the hilt of his sword, ready to draw it at any time. Family Mo's Grand Elder stared at Feng Pingsheng. His True Qi rushed through his meridians, ready to intercept at any time.
Although he wasn't Feng Pingsheng's opponent, he could withstand a few moves. It was enough for Second Elder to kill this person and avenge Third Elder.
Second Elder Mo used Heavenly Eagle Claw to attack. He was full of murderous intent and showed no mercy. He wanted to tear Chen Zong's body apart. Chen Zong seemed to be frightened and didn't move.
Little did he know, Second Elder Mo's every move was clearly seen by Chen Zong. Even if Heavenly Eagle Claw was cultivated to the Trance Realm, it couldn't completely eliminate the flaws. In Chen Zong's eyes, everything was clear.
When the sword came out, the Flying Swan appeared.
Vaguely, everyone seemed to see a white bird flapping its wings as it flew over from the horizon. Its posture was light, and its trajectory was light. It vaguely matched the sky, like a fairy of the heavens. It was clearly right in front of them, but it was difficult to capture its trace.
Nature, freedom, following one's heart …
Flying Swan Insignificant!
This was the lightest and most flexible sword move of the Flying Swan Sword Art. Under martial intent, it was like a fairy.
The eagle swooped down, the Flying Swan Insignificant. The sword couldn't be seen, only a flash of sword light.
Sheathing the sword, a scream followed. Second Elder Mo's left arm was cut off at the shoulder. Blood spurted out like a fountain.
"Second Elder …" Grand Elder Mo was shocked. He rushed over and pointed a finger at Second Elder's left shoulder to stop the blood spurting out. He quickly took out a pill and crushed it into powder and sprinkled it on the wound. Not only could it stop the bleeding, but it could also preserve the vitality of the meridians and flesh in the wound.
After doing all this, Grand Elder Mo picked up the severed arm on the ground and glared fiercely at Chen Zong. Then he quickly left with Second Elder Mo.
If they were faster, the severed arm could be reattached. If they were lucky, they could return to normal. If they were unlucky, then they would be somewhat inferior, but it was still better than losing an arm.
Coming menacingly and leaving in a panic, this was the portrayal of the two Family Mo Elders.
"That sword move just now … was it a martial intent?" Feng Pingsheng's eyes shone brightly, his voice trembling as he spoke.
Martial arts realms were divided into Small Success and Large Success, Transcendence and Perfection, and Perfection was the peak. This was also known to low level cultivators. Feng Pingsheng had been cultivating for many years. Although he hadn't been able to break through to the Transcendent Realm, his knowledge and experience were not something low level cultivators could compare with.
However, even though he had cultivated his sword skills for many years, he had only reached the Transcendent Realm and had yet to reach the Perfection Realm. His martial intent was even further away. He had only seen it once many years ago, and it was an unforgettable memory.
Chen Zong nodded, and Feng Pingsheng became even more excited.
Martial intent!
He had practiced the sword for many years, and had yet to reach the Transcendent Realm. But a fifteen year old boy had cultivated his sword skills to the Perfection Realm and comprehended a martial intent. There was no comparison at all. He couldn't help but feel a great blow.
Fortunately, Feng Pingsheng had practiced the sword for many years, and his will was firm, so he quickly adjusted himself.
"Qing Zong, you killed Family Mo's Third Elder, and now you cut off the arm of Family Mo's Second Elder. I'm afraid Family Mo won't let this go." Feng Pingsheng suppressed his inner thoughts and changed the subject.
"Originally, I could have killed Family Mo's Second Elder," Chen Zong smiled faintly and said, "If Family Mo doesn't appreciate my kindness, then I won't show any mercy."
This time, Chen Zong didn't kill Family Mo's Second Elder because he didn't want to cause unnecessary trouble for the Seven Swords Towers. After all, he would soon leave the Seven Swords Towers. Cutting off the other's arm was not only a mercy, but also a warning.
If Family Mo didn't let this go, then his sword would be stained with blood.
Feng Pingsheng could see that Chen Qingzong was a decisive person. He acted according to his principles and had a strong will.
"Most of Family Mo's people are nothing to worry about. Only that Family Mo's Old Ancestor who has been in seclusion for ten years …" Feng Pingsheng's eyes flashed with a hint of seriousness.
Even though he was known as Qinglin City's number one expert, Family Mo's Old Ancestor who had been in seclusion for ten years, if he was still alive, then his strength would be above his own.
"Transcendent?" Chen Zong asked rhetorically.
"Ten years ago, he was still in the Foundation Establishment Realm. Now that he has been in seclusion for ten years, I'm not sure, but there's an eighty to ninety percent chance that he hasn't broken through to the Transcendent Realm." Feng Pingsheng thought for a moment and made a conjecture based on all the signs, "But even if he isn't a Transcendent, he's at least a half-step Transcendent. His True Qi has transformed into Spirit Qi, and his strength is terrifying."
In the past few days, Chen Zong had gained a better understanding of this world's cultivation. Between the Foundation Establishment Realm and the Transcendent Realm, there was a half-step Transcendent Realm. According to the division of levels, it was equivalent to Blue Waves World's pseudo-Transcendent Realm, but its strength was much stronger than a pseudo-Transcendent Realm.
After all, there was a huge gap between the two worlds. The people of this world had a better physique, a better cultivation environment, and a more complete cultivation path.
"Uncle Feng, when this matter is over, I will leave with my sister. Please choose someone else for the position of Master of the Seven Swords Towers." Chen Zong said.
"You're leaving?" Feng Pingsheng couldn't help but be startled and quickly asked. Soon after, he also reacted. Chen Qingzong was a disciple of the Blue Cloud Sect. With the strength and talent he had shown so far, he was definitely not comparable to an ordinary disciple. He should be highly valued in the Sect.
Becoming one of the Masters of the Seven Swords Towers was not bad, but how could it compare to being a valued disciple of the Sect? One had to know that the Blue Cloud Sect was a four-star force with many half-step Transcendent Realm masters and even more Transcendent Realm masters. On the other hand, the Seven Swords Towers was only a two-star force. They didn't even have a half-step Transcendent Realm master, let alone a Transcendent Realm master.
Moreover, in terms of cultivation inheritance, the Seven Swords Towers was far inferior to the Blue Cloud Sect. In the Seven Swords Towers, the highest level of Martial Arts was only Common Grade High-Rank.
