As the ruler of the Floating Spirit Region, the Floating Spirit Hall was in charge of the entire continent. The Floating Spirit Hall was controlled by the five Spatial Tempering elders of the Elder Altar, so Hayashikawa knew from the very beginning that the Elder Altar wouldn't just sit by and watch him slaughter too many cultivators of the Floating Spirit Region. At most, they would intervene when the battle reached a certain point, but Hayashikawa couldn't control how much they would do.
This was also one of the reasons why Hayashikawa hadn't gone all out. That would only force the Elder Altar to intervene sooner.
Now that Hayashikawa was about to eliminate the sect master of the number one sect of the Floating Spirit Region, the people of the Elder Altar finally couldn't sit still any longer.
A heavy pressure poured down from the sky, enveloping the entire Qilin City, causing all the cultivators to feel the powerful aura that was high above them. A yellow light spread out, and without guessing, they already knew who had come.
"Greetings, Elder Spiritual Earth!"
At this moment, everyone respectfully bowed in the direction of the spatial black hole, because one of the true rulers of the Floating Spirit Region had finally appeared.
"Do you think this matter hasn't been blown out of proportion enough?" An ancient voice rang out from the spatial black hole, bringing with it a supreme pressure that fell into everyone's ears like thunder.
However, Hayashikawa's expression changed slightly, because he didn't feel that kind of pressure descending on him. Furthermore, Hayashikawa also noticed that although the spatial black hole had appeared, the Elder Spiritual Earth hadn't appeared. Instead, he had only transmitted his voice. This was a bit thought-provoking. Thinking of Ni Huanzhi's attitude towards Tangerine, Hayashikawa was almost certain that the Elder Spiritual Earth was afraid of Tangerine.
"Old fox …" The corners of Lin Chuan's mouth curled up. He could not help but find the situation a little funny. Now that he thought about it, if it weren't for Big Orange's deterrence, the Elder Altar's people would have already come out to capture him. It really wasn't easy to endure until now.
"Elder, it's Qing Long from the Nanming Continent. He …" The Nine Star Peak Sect Master's face was ashen as he tried to explain himself. Before he could finish his sentence, he was stopped by the Spiritual Land Elder.
"Enough! We've already investigated this matter, and you've also personally entered the Floating Spirit Temple to investigate. You're absolutely certain that the Soul Refining School is behind this, so why gather so many people to cause trouble in Qilin City? Do you not believe in our Spirit Temple, or do you think that we old farts no longer care of the continent? " The Spirit Earth Elder's voice became a lot colder. Clearly, this matter made him very dissatisfied with these sects.
If it weren't for these people causing trouble, the Elder Spiritual Earth would've had a lot of free time in the Elder Altar. He wouldn't have come here to deal with a matter like this and be on guard against a cat's paw.
"But the Soul Refining School is dead, and many of the ruins in the Floating Spirit Temple have been destroyed. Even the seven-star pillar on the eighth floor is gone. This clearly isn't the work of the Soul Refining School …" The Nine Star Peak's headmaster tried to explain himself.
"Enough! Do you think we wouldn't have noticed if you were able to? This matter ends here. The results of our Floating Spirit Temple's investigation will be the final conclusion. You don't need to know the reason behind this! "The Elder Spiritual Earth's voice was cold.
In truth, they already knew what happened in the Floating Spirit Temple. Ni Huanzhi returned to the Elder Altar as the Elder Spiritual Fire. She didn't need to hide anything from the other four elders, but she didn't say a word about Hayashikawa's secret.
But now that the matter had developed to this point, there was no way for them to hold anyone accountable. Too many things were involved, and it wasn't something the Floating Spirit Temple could handle.
"Today's matter ends here. Go back to your respective schools, or don't blame me for being impolite! Besides that, I'd like to seize this opportunity to announce that the Violet Jade Sword Sect's Ni Huanzhi has been promoted to one of the five great elders of the Elder Altar, Elder Spirit Flame, because his natural talent and cultivation are extremely formidable. At this point, all five of us elders have returned to our positions! "
The Elder Spiritual Earth didn't care about the looks of shock on the faces of the people below. Like a tide, the Elder Spiritual Earth's aura receded and disappeared without a trace.
The Elder Spiritual Earth didn't say a word to Hayashikawa, nor did he blame Hayashikawa for his actions. All he did was stop the situation from escalating and suppress the killing intent in the hearts of the people below.
After this incident, those who were angry at the Sect Leader of the Heaven-level Sect and the Sect Leader of the Nine Star Peak temporarily put down their grudges. Many of them pondered for a moment before turning around and leaving.
Furthermore, the fact that Ni Huanzhi had been promoted to Elder Spiritual Fire made many people feel strange. She was one of the people who had walked out of the ninth level alive. Other than her, there were the Three Heroes Of Nakagawa and the Blue Dragon. For her to be promoted to Elder Spiritual Fire at this time, people couldn't help but think that everything that had happened in the Floating Spirit Temple might have been manipulated by the Elder Altar.
As for what the truth was, no one would be able to find out because those who knew the truth weren't easy to mess with.
The Rasen Shuriken slowly dissipated, and Hayashikawa temporarily put away his killing intent. At this time, whether it was for Ni Huanzhi's face or for his own safety, he had already missed the best opportunity to kill the Celestial Sect leader.
However, if he didn't kill him now, Hayashikawa would still have to think of a way to get rid of him in the future. With the cultivation speed of his clone and the help of the Chaos Yuan Bead, Hayashikawa believed that it wouldn't be long before he would be invincible in the entire Floating Spirit Zone.
Qing Xian Restaurant, in a private room.
Hayashikawa calmly sipped on a cup of immortal wine, savoring a rare moment of tranquility. Several days had passed since the great battle, but the storm caused by it hadn't stopped for a long time in the Floating Spirit Zone. After all, five sect leader level powerhouses had died. Two of them had died at the hands of Hayashikawa, while the other three had died at the hands of the Celestial Sect and Nine Star Peak Sect leaders. The impact of this matter on the entire continent would probably not disappear even after a few years.
However, to Hayashikawa, whatever happened to the Floating Spirit Zone didn't have much to do with him. What he cared about the most right now was the Floating Spirit Zone's accompanying immortal tool — the Mysterious Jade of the Nine Heavens!
Back in the space-time continuum, Hayashikawa had once asked Tangerine if he could go to the Elder's Altar with his dried fish. The answer he received was that Hayashikawa could go now, but as for what the result would be, Tangerine didn't say. It was like a silly cat that wasn't afraid of being scalded by boiling water. In any case, Hayashikawa couldn't do anything to it.
"The matter here is almost over. Since that's the case, I'll go to the Elder's Altar today!" Hayashikawa raised his head and downed the last cup of immortal wine. He stood up, and his Mangekyo Sharingan appeared. The surrounding space immediately began to distort, and soon, Hayashikawa's body spun into his right eye and disappeared from the private room.
Looking at no less than ten empty bottles in front of him, the corner of Chen Xiao's mouth twitched fiercely. He exchanged a glance with Shangguan Dieche and Huang Tong, and they all wanted to cry but had no tears.
"He … seems … to have forgotten to pay …"
