BXBX NOVEL Chapter 28
What was going on?
The aces of the Sol Sword Sect were all dead?
Who killed them?
It was noteworthy that the power levels of the Sol Sword Sect and the Empyrean Sword Sect’s side sect at that moment in time were almost equal. Because the Empyrean Sword Sect’s side sect had many of their elders dispatched to the outside, it created a vast disparity in power left in the sect in comparison to that of the Sol Sword Sect. But who could have thought that all the aces in the Sol Sword Sect would perish?
At that moment, they were brought into the Sol Sword Sect.
Looking at the shattered ground and the Qi of the Sword that lingered, the horrifying ambiance made them tremble from head to toe. What a terrible Sword Qi that was!
Besides, along their journey, they had heard these people say that the Sol Sword Sect’s Sect Lord had stepped into the Divine Bridge stage. But even so, he was still killed!
Who was it?
Who could actually be so powerful?
“A young man? Wearing a white shirt and less than 20 years of age judging by his appearance...”
Less than 20 years of age?
Wearing a white shirt?
At that moment, in the brains of the Empyrean Sword Sect’s disciples, a handsome figure in white who loved to subconsciously place his hands behind his back appeared in their minds... hold up!
That was impossible!
Without prior consultation, all of them wanted to give themselves a slap in the face. However, after realizing that their hands and limbs were tied up, they gritted their teeth.
Why would I even think of that guy?
Is Shen Changge the only one who wears white clothes?
Is Shen Changge the only handsome dude in existence?
That guy was too cocky. Especially to people like them who were exploring the outside and putting their own lives in danger. Shen Changge was genuinely an offense to their eyes no matter how they looked at him.
But no matter the case, that young man in white entered the sword sect alone and killed their Sect Leader and seven elders at the Liberation Stage. His ability and terrifying power would absolutely make him a ginormous horror within the dark mist!
“Is he an Enforcer?”
The elder from the Sol Sword Sect took a deep breath.
Enforcer?
The people from the Empyrean Sword Sect shuddered on the inside.
The word Enforcer was synonymous with terror.
Of course, the term Enforcer was only used by outsiders like them. It was said that these people had many names. Those names included Enforcer, Child of the Dark Mist, Mist Dwellers...
These people were all immensely horrifying.
They had mastery over a unified yet very unique technique. It was seemingly an ancient scripture that would allow them to cultivate amid the dark mist and master the most terrifying power in existence!
They had also come across an Enforcer earlier. The person veiled within the dark mist. He was like a devil. With one palm, he instantly obliterated a massive demon at the Divine Bridge stage. The palm attack was delivered in a way that seemed as if it was nothing, but yet, it erupted with daunting power. What’s more, that man was very young and it seemed like he was just in the Divine Bridge stage. However, the power he unleashed sent all of them scurrying away after just a mere glance.
Could it be that...
The Sol Sword Sect was invaded by a Mist Dweller?
The Mist Dwellers were seemingly an extremely secretive organization...
They wandered in the dark mist exploring its secrets and, at the same time, restricting the power of survivors and demons within the dark mist by stealth, seemingly disallowing them from attaining a certain power level.
Should one arrive at the limit, the Mist Dwellers would act in concert and eliminate the entity.
But why would the Sol Sword Sect prompt such an ace to attack them?
Elder Jiang of the Empyrean Sword Sect had a lot of things on his mind. After all, the Sol Sword Sect and the Empyrean Sword Sect’s side sect were factions at the same level. Now that the Sol Sword Sect had encountered such a catastrophe, he was likewise a little worried.
However, now that a problem had arisen in the Sol Sword Sect, it would mean that they had a chance!
The elder from the Sol Sword Sect appeared as if he had been drenched in cold water.
Enforcer?
Mist Dweller?
Had the Sol Sword Sect really caught the eye of such a terrifying existence?
But how was that even possible?
According to his recent explorations in the dark mist, their current location was at the very edge of the mist. The demons at the Divine Bridge stage were addressed as Big Demons at their place. However, if they were to be compared to the power of others as a whole, they might be no more than trash that people could dispose of with a casual attack.
Beings as terrifying as the Mist Dwellers were the true horrors lurking in the dark mist.
Why would they come to bring harm upon small factions such as theirs located along the borders?
However, at that very moment.
All of a sudden.
“Has that person left? If yes, how long has he been gone?”
“He just left a while ago...”
The elder took a deep breath. His emotions were complicated to the extreme.
“Try to contact all of our elders who are out on expeditions as soon as possible. The Sol Sword Sect’s sphere of influence has to be reduced... Don’t make any mistakes!”
That elder took a deep breath as his eyes glittered with hatred.
...
However, at that very moment!
Suddenly.
Elder Jiang from the Empyrean Sword Sect’s pupils constricted slightly. In fact, he had a Spirit Pill with him all along, and that Spirit Pill could suppress his injuries immediately and allow him to unleash his powers at the very maximum. However, what would follow was that his injuries would become even more severe.
But in the current situation, he could not care less about that. Now that the Sol Sword Sect’s elder was at a loss and his guard was low, it was the perfect time for him to strike!
Ka-boom!
The energy of his sword promptly erupted!
As anticipated, the elder had not expected Elder Jiang to still have such power remaining in him. After all, in his perspective, Elder Jiang’s injuries were very severe!
No one could expect that he still had such a trump card up his sleeves!
His sword flared up. Ghastly energy pressed down on the surrounding area and the ground completely shattered. His blade pierced straight through the shoulder of the elder at the Liberation stage!
“You!”
He was enraged. However, Elder Jiang obviously had no intention of continuing the fight. After all, the Spirit Pill could only sustain him for a very short duration. Now, his utmost priority was to return to the Empyrean Sword Sect!
...
He would then call for reinforcements and annex the Sol Sword Sect!
The power that remained of the Sol Sword Sect was extremely small. As long as the Empyrean Sword Sect carried out an invasion, they could definitely annex them and strengthen the Empyrean Sword Sect’s apparent power level!
“Let’s go!”
Elder Jiang cut the ropes off all the disciples with a single slash.
He directly used his vigorous Spiritual Energy to blow up the Spiritual Energy Chains that were used on them earlier on!
Besides, Elder Jiang was also a straightforward and extremely ruthless person. Without hesitation, he controlled his sword and nailed the powerhouse.
“Seize them!”
The eyes of the bright-eyed ace of the Sol Sword Sect turned scarlet. This injury was not fatal, but it restricted his movements!
With his eyes wide open, he could only watch as the disciples of the Empyrean Sword Sect ran into the dark mist under Elder Jiang’s protection as the elder constantly vomited blood!
Everything became clear to him.
This was bad.
Under the Sol Sword Sect’s current condition, should they allow the enemy to slip away... the consequences would catastrophic for them!
However, the dark mist was full of perils. Where could they possibly hide?
At that moment, Shen Changge had already returned to the Empyrean Sword Sect.
He stood on the Empyrean Peak and watched the elder, who was vomiting blood freely, and the panicking disciples who had just returned.
He placed his hands behind his back and sighed.
“When a man retires from his responsibilities, fame and fortune become irrelevant in the quest.”
What could sound even more like bragging than this?
