Chapter 957: Ji Tianfu’s Domineering!

Yang Baikun sneered.

Just a moment ago, several protectors were killed. These disciples of the Mysterious Sword Gate clearly didn’t have the ability to do it. However, in such a short time, someone else must have been responsible, and these disciples were likely witnesses to it.

“Good, very good. It seems you have no appreciation for favors. If you don’t face some hardship, you won’t learn!”

Yang Baikun’s expression darkened, and his aura intensified. A wave of pressure surged toward the Mysterious Sword Gate disciples.

This was the overwhelming pressure of realm, something that the young disciples of the Mysterious Sword Gate couldn’t possibly withstand in front of a Yuan Emperor Realm expert.

Instantly, one by one, they were overwhelmed by the immense force from all directions. The hardest thing to resist was the pressure due to the vast difference in their cultivation levels.

The disciples of the Mysterious Sword Gate trembled, cold sweat dripping down their foreheads. Their internal energy was blocked, and it felt as though their meridians might burst open.

“The honorable leader of the Golden Sword Sect, how dare you show off in front of us juniors! Yang Baikun, do you think I, Ji Tianfu, don’t exist?”

At that moment, the air suddenly trembled, and a deep voice rang out from nowhere.

“Boom…”

A powerful aura immediately spread, surrounding the young disciples of the Mysterious Sword Gate. Mist appeared out of nowhere, and the pressure vanished in an instant.

A green light flashed and appeared in front of Ji Hanluo and the young man in black.

It was a tall middle-aged man, radiating water-element spiritual energy. He wore a light blue robe with a light golden belt around his waist. He appeared refined and gentle, but in that moment, he exuded a fierce and intimidating aura.

The man’s dark eyes were deep, and he fixed his gaze on Yang Baikun. A flicker of sharpness crossed his eyes, but he said nothing.

With a sweep of his long sleeves, a green light surged from his body, shooting toward Yang Baikun like a giant python.

Yang Baikun’s expression changed. He shook his arm and immediately cast a golden handprint.

“Sizzle…”

The two forces collided, sending a burst of golden light into the air. Green light rushed out. A powerful shockwave spread, creating a whirlwind that sent sand and stones flying.

“Thud, thud!”

Yang Baikun was pushed back several steps, his figure swaying in mid-air.

On the ground, the middle-aged man took a stumbling step back, his hair whipping in the air. He was none other than Ji Tianfu, the leader of the Mysterious Sword Gate!

“Ji Tianfu, how dare you attack my sect’s master!”

The elderly man standing behind Yang Baikun frowned, his tone dark and threatening.

“Wei Yidao, who do you think you are? Do you really think you can call my name, Ji Tianfu?”

Ji Tianfu didn’t waste time on extra words. With a sweep of his long sleeves, a surge of water-elemental energy poured out, forming a dazzling green wave that shot toward Wei Yidao.

Wei Yidao’s face turned pale. Though he was an elder of the Golden Sword Sect and older than Ji Tianfu, he knew very well that his strength couldn’t compare. In panic, he quickly retreated.

“Ji Tianfu, what do you mean?”

Yang Baikun stepped forward, a beam of golden light slicing through the air, blocking Ji Tianfu’s attack and dispersing it in the sky. His expression darkened, and anger flickered in his eyes.

“Yang Baikun, you have bullied my Mysterious Sword Gate’s juniors. You better explain yourself!”

Ji Tianfu narrowed his eyes, scanning the surroundings as if deep in thought.

“Father.”

“Sect Leader!”

Upon seeing Ji Tianfu’s arrival, Ji Hanluo and the young disciples of the Mysterious Sword Gate breathed a sigh of relief. With their sect leader here, they had no fear of the Golden Sword Sect’s master.

“Ji Tianfu, four of my Golden Sword Sect’s guardians were killed. Your disciples are here. It’s time for you to explain. Otherwise, hand over the culprits, or else your Mysterious Sword Gate will be held accountable. Don’t blame me for being rude!”

Yang Baikun’s expression turned serious. With Ji Tianfu’s presence, he had to be cautious. In terms of strength, Ji Tianfu was not weaker than him, and the combined strength of the Golden Sword Sect was no match for the Mysterious Sword Gate.

Ji Tianfu looked around, then turned his gaze toward Ji Hanluo and her companions, asking, “What happened here?”

“Dad, when we arrived, everything was like this. Then, Sect Master Yang appeared,” Ji Hanluo answered, her eyes betraying a slight hesitation.

“Sect leader, when we arrived, things were already like this. We don’t know who killed the guardians from the Golden Sword Sect,” the young man in black spoke up, adding his input.

Ji Tianfu’s gaze shifted between his daughter and the young man in black, before turning to Yang Baikun. “You heard them. With their abilities, they likely didn’t have the strength to kill your guardians. But if you insist on blaming my Mysterious Sword Gate, then go ahead. We’ll see if your Golden Sword Sect can intimidate us.”

After a brief pause, Ji Tianfu’s lips curled into a faint, teasing smile as he spoke, “But let me remind you, Sect Master Yang. The person who killed the guardians may not have gone far. If I were you, I would chase after them now. Otherwise, you may never find out who did it.”

Yang Baikun’s expression twisted with both anger and embarrassment. He ground his teeth and looked toward Wei Yidao. “Chase them.”

Wei Yidao scowled, still flustered, but he glared at Ji Tianfu and quickly followed Yang Baikun’s order.

Ji Hanluo clenched her teeth secretly, her eyes steely with resolve as she watched Yang Baikun and Wei Yidao move in the direction that Su Yi and the little bird had fled.

“Are you all okay?”

Ji Tianfu asked his disciples, noticing Ji Hanluo’s peculiar expression but not showing it on his face.

“Reporting to the sect leader, we are fine.”

The disciples responded, still shaken. The pressure from the Yuan Emperor Realm was overwhelming, something they couldn’t possibly resist.

“Dad, why did you come back?”

Ji Hanluo asked in surprise. Her father and several elders had left earlier to investigate the anomaly. Why did they return so suddenly?

“This situation is very strange. Everything has gone quiet. The elders are still looking into it.”

Ji Tianfu was equally surprised and puzzled.

It was supposed to be a place where a valuable treasure would appear, but the aura had been incredibly strong and terrifying. Then, suddenly, it vanished without a trace, as if it had never existed.

“Whoosh whoosh…”

In the quiet sky, a shadow swiftly passed. If you looked closely, you would see a small bird flapping its wings rapidly beside the figure.

These two individuals were Su Yi and Su Xiaoshuai.

“Boss, are we sure we want to run in there?”

Su Xiaoshuai asked, puzzled by Su Yi’s sudden change in direction.

“The more dangerous the place, the safer it is,” Su Yi gritted his teeth, speaking resolutely.
