Chapter 686: Remnants of the Sun-Breaking Sect!
The sudden accident frightened a large crowd of onlookers, causing them to cry out in alarm.
Several black shadows streaked across the sky, charging straight at the statue!
“Damn Sand God Temple, today we’re going to tear down your temple! Let’s see if you can continue your supernatural tricks!”
The figure at the front let out a wild laugh, then swung the curved blade in his hand, slashing fiercely toward the statue ahead!
“Whoosh…”
The giant blade cut through the air, emitting a humming sound.
A black light sword energy was about to strike the statue!
“Crash!”
At this critical moment, a seven-colored light screen, like a waterfall, fell from above, perfectly covering the entire statue!
“Boom!”
The black light sword energy struck directly against the seven-colored light screen, exploding violently!
But after the flash of light subsided, the statue still stood in place, completely unharmed.
A total of nine figures in mid-air came to a stop.
Now, the appearance of these nine people could be clearly seen.
They were all men, uniformly dressed in deep purple robes.
The man in the lead had a scar on the left side of his face, running from his forehead above his left eye down to his chin, extremely frightening.
Now he glared at the statue in front, then looked back at the Qinyao Goddess, emanating waves of killing intent.
“It’s the remnants of the Broken Sun Sect!”
Someone among the family representatives below shouted in alarm.
With this voice, the other family representatives’ expressions changed.
The Broken Sun Sect was previously considered the number one martial arts sect in the Western Capital.
At the peak of the Broken Sun Sect, even the Yuan family, Fu family, Cheng family… none of these families could compare.
But starting about fifty years ago, the structure of the martial arts world in the Nine Provinces began to gradually change.
Martial arts sects gradually declined. While martial arts families began to rise.
In the Western Capital, the Broken Sun Sect’s power still remained in a league of its own.
To weaken the sect’s influence, the major martial arts families planned to unite through the Martial Arts Association to deal with the Broken Sun Sect.
Additionally, the sect master of the Broken Sun Sect at that time, relying on the sect’s strength, was extremely arrogant in his actions and behavior, never giving others any leeway.
Therefore, the Broken Sun Sect became a thorn in the side of the entire Western Capital martial arts world.
Afterward, one scheme after another targeting the Broken Sun Sect began.
No matter how strong the Broken Sun Sect was, it couldn’t resist the entire Western Capital martial arts world with the power of one sect alone.
Thus, over the past fifty years, the Broken Sun Sect’s power was continuously dismantled and weakened.
About twenty years ago, the Broken Sun Sect could no longer be considered the number one power in the Western Capital.
Instead, martial arts families like the Yuan and Fu families took its place.
But the Broken Sun Sect’s foundation was extremely deep, and even after such a long period of targeted weakening, it still retained a considerable portion of its strength.
Then fifteen years ago, the Sand God emerged out of nowhere!
Led by the Yuan and Fu families, the combined strength of many families jointly built the Sand God Temple.
Since then, the Western Capital martial arts world’s weakening of the Broken Sun Sect intensified.
Most families worried that if they didn’t completely dismantle the Broken Sun Sect, they would gather strength and counterattack in the future!
However, at this time, the Martial Arts Association, in order to balance the power between families and sects, was unwilling to help further.
Therefore, the major families had to find their own solutions!
To take action against the Broken Sun Sect, they needed a legitimate reason!
Just then, the Sand God of the Sand God Temple suddenly manifested.
At the sacrificial ceremony nine years ago, the Sand God statue dropped a jade slip with only one line of text.
Broken Sun Sect, an evil sect.
By then, the Sand God Temple’s reputation was already significant, and with the leadership of the Yuan and Fu families, people in the Western Capital martial arts world fervently believed in the existence of deities.
These four words, “evil sect,” became the reason for the Western Capital martial arts world to besiege the Broken Sun Sect.
The Broken Sun Sect suffered an unprecedented blow!
The remaining core forces of the sect, in order to preserve the last of the Broken Sun Sect’s power, scattered and fled.
This time, the Broken Sun Sect completely lost its position, and even the location of the sect was destroyed.
But in the past nine years, those scattered remnants of the Broken Sun Sect would still occasionally appear, ambushing people from various families in retaliation.
The major families of the Western Capital have been sending people to hunt down these remnants for years.
But these remnants hid in the shadows, and with their small numbers, finding them was extremely difficult.
In the past two years, most families had given up on hunting them.
No one expected that today, these long-disappeared remnants of the Broken Sun Sect would be bold enough to directly invade the sacrificial ceremony!
…
On the ground, Yuan Chenglong and Fu Yousheng, the heads of two top families, exchanged glances, cold smiles appearing on their faces.
For them, the arrival of the Broken Sun Sect remnants was not a bad thing.
They had sent people to hunt these remnants for so many years without results.
But now these remnants appeared together at this occasion… it actually saved them the trouble of searching.
Today, they would eliminate these remnants!
In the future, they would no longer need to worry about sudden attacks from these remnants!
Yuan Chenglong raised his right hand, twisting the blood jade ring on his right thumb.
The ring emitted a bright light.
Then, from the distant crowd below, four people erupted with energy, flying rapidly toward the sky, stopping behind the Broken Sun Sect remnants.
Fu Yousheng also focused his thoughts.
“Whoosh!”
Another four figures flew out from the crowd, arriving in mid-air.
“I’ll also contribute!” The head of the Cheng family, Cheng Tianjiao, waved his sleeve forcefully.
This seemed to be a gesture, immediately prompting three figures to rush toward the sky.
In just seconds, the nine Broken Sun Sect remnants in front of the statue were surrounded by the attendants brought by the three families.
These eleven attendants, judging from the aura they emitted, had cultivation levels at least at the peak of Martial Venerable!
“Remnants of the Broken Sun Sect, surrender yourselves!” Yuan Chenglong looked up and smiled.
Among the Broken Sun Sect remnants, the leading man laughed loudly: “Hahaha… Yuan, you old dog, since we’ve come here today, we’ve naturally made preparations! Do you think having a few more people will subdue us? Not a chance!”
“I, Xiao Qianjue, am determined to avenge my fallen sect members today!”
“Our Broken Sun Sect was never an evil sect!”
After Xiao Qianjue’s angry roar, the aura around him surged again!
“Boom!”
The true qi emanating from his body, like burning flames, gave off a red glow.
The surrounding air froze in that instant!
“This is… cultivation at the peak of Martial Saint!”
In mid-air, the eleven family attendants all changed expression!
Peak Martial Saint could also be called the Half-Divine Realm!
He had already stepped one foot into the Divine Realm! Extremely powerful!
All eleven attendants were intimidated by Xiao Qianjue’s strength.
“Boom!”
At this moment, the eight people behind Xiao Qianjue also erupted with energy, attacking fiercely at the same time!
Those eleven family attendants barely managed to defend in their panic!
“Boom! Boom! Boom!”
In mid-air, true qi collided, with explosions sounding continuously!
No one present had expected such a situation at the triennial sacrificial ceremony!
The distant onlookers and the family representatives on the platform all wore shocked expressions.
“Bang!”
In mid-air, Xiao Qianjue slashed down with his blade!
The Yuan family attendant before him couldn’t dodge in time, his entire body split in two, blood splashing everywhere!
“Moon Mark Technique!”
At this moment, a Fu family attendant attacked from behind, trying to ambush Xiao Qianjue!
But as he released his technique, Xiao Qianjue disappeared from his spot!
The next second, Xiao Qianjue appeared behind this Fu family attendant, a flash of blade light!
A mark appeared on the Fu family attendant’s neck, and then he fell to the ground with a thud!
“Hahaha… bring more! Bring more! I will definitely slaughter all of you today!”
Xiao Qianjue laughed wildly while killing.
In mid-air, in front of the Sand God statue, the fierce battle continued without end.
Blood with a strange smell dripped to the ground, causing the family representatives to scream continuously, retreating backward, wishing they could return to the hall.
Yuan Chenglong, Fu Yousheng, and Cheng Tianjiao now all had extremely ugly expressions.
They never imagined that Xiao Qianjue… had broken through to a new realm!
With cultivation at the Half-Divine Realm, these eleven attendants simply couldn’t contend with him!
To kill Xiao Qianjue, they would have to notify their families to send their strongest forces!
“The three benefactors need not worry, I will take action myself.”
At this moment, a pleasant female voice sounded in their ears.
The three men looked up at the Qinyao Goddess in mid-air, frowning.
“Qinyao, are you absolutely confident you can defeat him? With so many people watching… even if you suffer just a slight injury, it will cause some to doubt the Sand God Temple… I don’t think it’s necessary to take such a risk.” Yuan Chenglong said gravely.
“Yes, we agree with Family Head Yuan’s thoughts. It’s better to take the most cautious approach.”
Fu Yousheng and Cheng Tianjiao also agreed.
