286: Beast Taming Sect Attacks
At this moment, on a golden battleship a hundred miles away from the Qingtian Sect.
A Peak Great Emperor Middle-aged Man dressed in golden beast robes stood there.
Upon seeing Li Big Saber in the air, he immediately stood his ground and shouted, "All Beast Taming Sect battleships, cease advancement!!"
After speaking, the Middle-aged Man in beast robes stared fixedly at Li Big Saber in the air, his eyes filled with both confusion and surprise.
A few days ago, two of their Beast Taming Sect's quasi-emperors had perished here at the Qingtian Sect while hunting down a Young Sect Master whose Sect had been wiped out by the Beast Taming Sect.
Therefore, today he brought people from the Beast Taming Sect to search for clues and, incidentally, to incorporate this part of the Canglan Continent into the Beast Taming Sect's sphere of influence.
However, along the way, the highest level of power he had encountered was a Half-step Great Emperor; he had not yet run into a single Great Emperor Expert.
Now that he had reached the place where the two quasi-emperors had perished, running into Li Big Saber, a Peak Great Emperor, was truly baffling to him.
After all, even in the Central Province, where the Spiritual Qi of the Canglan Continent was most dense, there were no Great Emperor Experts.
Now that he had arrived here in the Southern Region, a place with barren Spiritual Qi, the existence of a Peak Great Emperor Expert was simply mind-boggling.
Just as the Middle-aged Man in beast robes had finished announcing for the battleships to stop advancing.
Four gray-haired, Peak Great Emperor elders appeared beside the Middle-aged Man in beast robes.
Sensing the appearance of these elders, the Middle-aged Man in beast robes quickly cupped his hands and bowed, saying, "Hao'er greets Revered Master, and greets the Old Ancestors!"
These four were the Old Ancestors who had remained in his Beast Taming Sect for tens of thousands of years, among whom was his Revered Master.
Originally, their Beast Taming Sect had three other Great Emperor Experts, possessing a total of eight Great Emperors.
But those three had inexplicably perished in the starry sky while out a while ago, and to this day, it had not been discovered who did it.
The reason his Revered Master and the Old Ancestors were on the battleship was to do their final part in expanding the territory of the Beast Taming Sect.
After all, the immortal path had already appeared above the new continent. Once the immortal path solidified, his Revered Master and the Old Ancestors would step onto it to undergo the Ascension tribulation. Therefore, they wanted to expand as much territory as possible for the Beast Taming Sect now.
"Hmm, rise."
Facing the Middle-aged Man's bow, the few elders nodded.
After nodding, one of the elders glanced at Li Big Saber in the sky above the Qingtian Sect and asked the Middle-aged Man, "Hao'er, is it because of him that you ordered the stop?"
Hearing the elder's question, the Middle-aged Man quickly bowed slightly, cupped his hands, and said, "Yes, Revered Master. This person suddenly appeared in the sky above this Sect and blocked our path."
"And those two quasi-emperors of our Sect perished here, so I prepared to probe his background before making further plans."
Although it was highly likely that Li Big Saber was the one who caused the two quasi-emperors of the Beast Taming Sect to perish at the Qingtian Sect, Li Big Saber was, after all, a Great Emperor Expert, so he could not start a war recklessly.
Because now that all the continents in the starry sky had merged together, there were still several Sects stronger than the Beast Taming Sect.
Therefore, whenever they faced a Great Emperor Expert, the Beast Taming Sect was quite cautious. They had to clearly investigate the background before discussing whether to fight or reconcile, so as to avoid offending those Sects stronger than the Beast Taming Sect.
"Hmm, go probe his background. If he has no connection to those few, let him know the consequences of blocking our path." The elder nodded and looked coldly at Li Big Saber in the air.
He did not care whether Li Big Saber had killed the two quasi-emperors of the Beast Taming Sect or not.
Since Li Big Saber dared to block the Beast Taming Sect's path, it was a capital offense.
For a Sect with a single Great Emperor like Li Big Saber's, if there was no entanglement with forces stronger than the Beast Taming Sect, they would always choose to annihilate them.
As long as Li Big Saber's background was probed, then Li Big Saber and the Qingtian Sect and Qingtian City beneath his feet would all have to be annihilated.
"Yes, Revered Master."
The Middle-aged Man in beast robes agreed, then immediately flew out of the battleship and appeared in front of Li Big Saber. With a polite expression, he cupped his hands and said, "Fellow Daoist, I am the Sect Master of Yushou Sect. I am leading the Sect's elite to pass through here today. May I ask how to address you, Fellow Daoist?"
After speaking, the Middle-aged Man in beast robes looked at Li Big Saber with a smile, as if he were greeting an old friend.
He did not directly probe Li Big Saber's background, but prepared to use this conversational method to slowly coax out Li Big Saber's background.
"Oh, the Beast Taming Sect?" Hearing the Middle-aged Man in beast robes say he was the Sect Master of Yushou Sect, Li Big Saber's mouth also carried a smile.
The two quasi-emperors who were hunting Huangfu Yun a few days ago were people from the Beast Taming Sect. Now that the Sect Master of Yushou Sect had come to the Qingtian Sect, it seemed he had come with ill intent.
However, the Sect Master of Yushou Sect was not acting provocatively right now; instead, he had parked the battleship a hundred miles away and had come over to speak politely, so it was not easy for him to just kill the person directly.
Thus, Li Big Saber also politely cupped his hands and said, "So it is the Sect Master of Yushou Sect. My apologies, my Sect killed two people a few days ago who claimed to be quasi-emperors from the Beast Taming Sect. They wouldn't happen to be from your Sect, would they?"
After speaking, Li Big Saber also looked at the Sect Master of Yushou Sect with a smile.
Since the Sect Master of Yushou Sect was so polite, he wanted to see whether he was being genuinely polite or fake.
"This..." Seeing that Li Big Saber did not say anything else but instead directly admitted to killing the two quasi-emperors of the Beast Taming Sect, the Sect Master of Yushou Sect was dumbfounded.
He had originally come to probe Li Big Saber's background so he could take action.
After all, the two quasi-emperors had perished here at the Qingtian Sect; even without Li Big Saber's admission, he knew it was nine times out of ten done by the Sect where Li Big Saber was located.
Now that Li Big Saber was not playing by the rules, it had completely dumbfounded him.
"What's wrong, Fellow Daoist? Why have you stopped speaking?" Seeing that the Sect Master of Yushou Sect was dumbfounded, Li Big Saber asked with a smile.
Hearing Li Big Saber's words.
The Sect Master of Yushou Sect's expression changed, and he no longer put on a smiling face.
Instead, with a gloomy face and murderous intent, he looked at Li Big Saber and said, "Fellow Daoist, you killed my Beast Taming Sect's people and still dare to be so arrogant? It seems you have some backing. Quickly bring out your trump card, otherwise, you won't have the chance."
The four elders on the Beast Taming Sect's battleship, hearing that the Sect Master of Yushou Sect had laid his cards on the table, also revealed murderous intent in their eyes and appeared directly around Li Big Saber, surrounding him.
If Li Big Saber had no backing, or no forces stronger than the Beast Taming Sect as a shield, they would immediately attack and kill Li Big Saber.
"Hiss, the Grand Elder has been surrounded by five people. Why doesn't he call for reinforcements?"
"Yeah, these five people dare to surround the Grand Elder, they must be Great Emperor Experts too."
"Stop talking. Another Great Emperor battle is about to break out above the Qingtian Sect. Let's hurry and hide in Qingtian City."
"Right, right. Hurry and hide in Qingtian City. Otherwise, if a Great Emperor battle occurs, none of us outside the city will survive."
Seeing Li Big Saber surrounded by the Sect Master of Yushou Sect and the Old Ancestors of the Beast Taming Sect who had flown out of the golden battleship.
The Qingtian Sect Disciples, clan members, and Central Province Cultivators who were preparing to watch the commotion outside Qingtian City were first startled.
Then they all quickly rushed toward the interior of Qingtian City.
Although they did not know why Li Big Saber had to face five Great Emperor Experts alone.
But now was not the time to think about this question; they had to quickly enter Qingtian City and rely on the Great Emperor Restriction above Qingtian City to withstand the aftermath of the Great Emperor battle.
Otherwise, once the fighting started in the air, if they had no protection, it would be a dead end.
