Chapter 513: Are You Bullying My Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak?
An Elder, Zhang Diyun’s master, spoke up. Unable to sit still, he felt a deep sense of shame that his esteemed direct disciple had suffered such a great defeat—especially at the hands of Su Yi and Situ Muyang, these two young fellows. The embarrassment was keenly reflected on his face as well.
Zhang Diyun felt a deep frustration welling up inside him, unable to stop himself from casting a helpless glance at Su Yi and Situ Muyang, who stood not far away. How he wished his defeat had truly been the result of severe injuries. However, only he knew the truth—that he had been at the peak of his powers, fully prepared, yet still had been trampled upon.
“Hmph, does he really need to be severely injured to be defeated? Even if it’s just me alone, he wouldn’t gain any advantage!” Situ Muyang couldn’t bear to watch any longer. It was just Zhang Diyun—were these elders really so dismissive of him and Su Yi?
Zhang Diyun’s eye twitched, but he remained silent. He knew Situ Muyang spoke the truth. Even if he had faced Situ Muyang alone, he wouldn’t have gained any advantage. This young lad, seemingly so inexperienced, had strength that was remarkably terrifying.
Observing the demeanor of Zhang Diyun and Situ Muyang, one could easily deduce the true situation. The elders present in the room were certainly not oblivious to this fact, as their eyes revealed hidden waves of emotions.
“Somebody is here, it must be the sect leader.”
Outside the main hall, sensing the fluctuations of aura, the elders within the hall immediately stood up. It must be the arrival of the sect leader.
“Hmph…”
A fluctuation in aura, and a figure silently appeared within the main hall.
The figure was slender, with a slightly weathered face. His black hair was adorned with strands of silver, and his eyes were piercing.
“Elder Su… Elder Su…”
As the figure approached, the elders and Dharma Protectors in the assembly hall froze for a moment in surprise. It was not the sect leader, but instead, Elder Su who had arrived.
Su Yi’s eyes flickered with astonishment as he stood before none other than his lifesaving benefactor, Elder Su Kuangge of the Divine Sword School.
“Elder Su… ”
Su Yi stepped forward and immediately bowed, finally returning to the Divine Sword School, where Elder Su was stationed.
“Do not worry, within my Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak, no one can bully you!”
Elder Su turned around, interrupting Su Yi’s words, but his gaze was fixed firmly upon Su Yi, shimmering with hidden brilliance.
“I pay my respect to Elder Su!”
“I pay my respect to Elder Su!”
Inside the hall, the elders displayed varied expressions and then proceeded to bow in reverence.
“I heard that you have brought people from my Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak to Sky Sword Peak, so I came to have a look.” Elder Su’s gaze shifted away from Su Yi, scanning the dozens of elders inside the hall. He spoke in a casual tone, but his facial expression betrayed a mix of emotions, with a hint of unpredictability, and his eyes glanced sideways.
“Elder Su, Su Yi did too much within the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords, plundering the sect members’ space bags and launching surprise attacks on them. That is why I brought this matter for the sect leader’s judgment.”
Elder Bai Mingshan spoke up, his gaze subtly flickering, and asked Elder Su, “I heard that Su Yi is your newly accepted disciple. I wonder if it is true or not?”
“Whether or not he is my disciple is none of your business. When I take in disciples, it is not for you to interfere!”
Elder Su fixed his gaze directly on Bai Mingshan, his powerful aura immediately enveloping the elder. The intensity of this presence seemed as though it could overturn the entire hall. His voice carried a chill as he spoke, “I heard that a disciple from your Fifteenth Sword Peak has been causing trouble on the Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak. Your disciple lacks discipline. Have you lived this long in vain? Either you lack judgment, or you, Bai Mingshan, don’t regard me, Su Kuangge, with respect. This is your only warning. If you continue to disregard me, don’t blame me for not warning you before I slap you!”
The voice was resounding and unapologetic, reflecting the firm stance of Elder Su.
The entire hall fell into a chilling silence, completely subdued by the overwhelming aura. Zhang Diyun, Pu Hao, and the other direct and inner disciples trembled inexplicably. This presence, immensely powerful and not directly aimed at them, felt as though it could shatter their very beings.
Su Yi was also taken aback, completely astonished. Elder Su’s domineering demeanor was truly overwhelming. He boldly addressed the presumed Elder of the Divine Sword School, threatening to deliver a resounding slap if they continued to disregard him.
Elder Bai Mingshan’s complexion fluctuated between pale and flushed, yet he dared not utter a word.
“Hehe, Muyang pays my respect to Grand Tutor.”
However, Situ Muyang was not intimidated. Instead, he felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had encountered a loved one. A smile instantly graced his face as he swiftly moved forward, towering over Elder Su by a head.
“You’ve grown so much, my boy. It’s good to have you back. So, you’ve also gone to the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords?”
Upon seeing Situ Muyang, the expression on Elder Su’s face immediately softened. He reached out and gently patted Situ Muyang’s cheek, his eyes filled with a hint of affection. Then, as if sensing something from Situ Muyang, a look of astonishment flickered across his gaze. “Well done, well done,” he spoke, a note of approval in his voice.
“Grand Tutor…”
Su Yi was somewhat taken aback. Elder Su is Situ Muyang’s Grand Tutor, and his status seems to be exceptionally high. No wonder the elders treat Elder Su with such distinct reverence.
“Welcome back. You’ve entered the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords and gained quite a lot,” Situ Muyang chuckled mischievously.
“Hmm!”
Elder Su nodded, ignoring the looks of Elder Bai Mingshan. He then turned to the surprised Su Yi and Situ Muyang, and asked, “Within the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords, have either of you killed any disciples of the Divine Sword School?”
“No, absolutely not,” Situ Muyang shook his head. He had never resorted to assassination, especially considering they were disciples of the Divine Sword School.
“No,” Su Yi also nodded, affirming, “I have never targeted the disciples of the Divine Sword School for assassination.”
“Alright, then just follow me back.”
Elder Su nodded, indicating to Su Yi and himself to depart.
“Elder Su, within the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords, Su Yi has taken all the Dark Spirit Fruits and hasn’t left a single one for anyone else.”
Upon seeing Elder Su intending to take Su Yi away, an elder gritted his teeth and spoke, “The Dark Spirit Fruits are of significant importance to the cultivation of this group of disciples, Elder.”
“Yes, Elder Su, it is true that Su Yi displayed audacity within the Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords. He plundered the space bags of numerous inner disciples, seizing both the space bags and Sword-patterned Stones of many direct disciples. This has caused turmoil within the Battlefield and disrupted the order of the Grand Swordsmanship Competition. We should wait for the sect leader’s decision!”
Some elders also whispered similarly, afraid to speak too loudly.
Elder Su’s gaze turned cold as he swept over the elders who had spoken. Then, with a loud shout, he said, “Are you elders of the Divine Sword School raised on excrement? The Battlefield of Ten Thousand Swords is meant for honing skills. Your disciples are no match, yet you want the old ones like you to come out and protect the fledglings? Do you think my Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak is easy to bully? Come on, tell me, which rule of the Divine Sword School did Su Yi and Situ Muyang violate? If you can’t provide an answer today, I won’t be polite to you. My Thirty-Sixth Sword Peak is not to be underestimated!”
The sound, resounding and deafening, was like a thunderous roar, shaking the entire hall, and creating a buzzing reverberation.
