42: Famous throughout twelve states

Soon, Elder Liu began to chant.

"Yuntian Sect is trash!"

"Yuntian Sect is trash!"

"Yuntian Sect is trash...!"

However, his voice was a bit soft; only Niu Bi and his companions could hear it.

"Did you not eat? Why is your voice so quiet? Speak louder and let the people within a hundred miles hear you."

Niu Bi stepped on Elder Liu's foot and applied more pressure.

He wasn't that easy to fool.

"You..." Elder Liu's face was extremely ugly.

But with his head under someone's foot, he dared not show the slightest defiance.

Immediately, he activated his Saint cultivation and shouted loudly.

"Yuntian Sect is trash!"

"Yuntian Sect is trash!"

"Yuntian Sect is trash...!"

This time, the volume was so great it directly pierced the clouds.

Forget about the vicinity of the secret realm.

Even people two or three hundred miles away could hear Elder Liu's booming voice.

"Hiss, oh my goodness, which expert is this, publicly cursing the Yuntian Sect as trash in broad daylight?"

"What kind of deep hatred must this be for the voice to travel so far?"

The cultivators in Liang Province within a few hundred miles heard Elder Liu's curses.

They were all dumbfounded, looking around everywhere.

Some cultivators were currently bonding with their wives.

As a result, Elder Liu's voice...

...scared them so badly that their mood was instantly ruined, leading to psychological trauma thereafter.

"I'm done. Can you let me go now?" Elder Liu asked Niu Bi after shouting a hundred times.

"Heh heh!"

Niu Bi showed a mocking smile and said, "I only told you to curse a hundred times, but I never said I would let you go after you finished cursing."

Niu Bi exerted force with his foot, directly crushing Elder Liu's head and body into a mist of blood.

When Elder Liu insulted the Qingtian Sect and attacked Gu Chen and his companions, his fate was already sealed.

That was death.

He would not allow anyone who insulted his sect to live in this world.

"Hiss, this Qingtian Sect expert is so overbearing. After toying with this Yuntian Sect Elder, he still killed him."

"The Yuntian Sect has suffered a huge loss this time. A Saint Elder is the sect's peak strength."

"Heh, so what? The Qingtian Sect clearly isn't afraid of the Yuntian Sect, or they wouldn't have killed this Elder."

"Exactly. What kind of sect is this, daring to disregard the overlord of Ling Province?"

Seeing Elder Liu stomped into a mist of blood by Niu Bi,

the nearby rogue cultivators were all shocked.

They had thought that after Elder Liu finished cursing, Niu Bi would let him go.

Between sects, it was usually just about saving face.

Since Elder Liu had already backed down, they shouldn't have taken his life.

After all, this wasn't just a few minor disciples.

The death of a Saint Realm Expert was enough to provoke a war between two sects.

At that time, it would be a scene of rivers of blood.

"Gu Quasi-Disciple, where should we go next?" After dealing with Elder Liu, Niu Bi walked up to Gu Chen and his companions and asked.

Jiang Chen had instructed him to follow Gu Chen's orders, meaning everything was centered around Gu Chen.

No matter where they went, he had to obey Gu Chen.

"Senior Niu Bi, our training excursion is over. We can return to the sect now," Gu Chen replied calmly.

They had been out for six or seven days now.

Since the previously planned tasks were completed,

he wasn't planning on venturing anywhere else; it was better to return to the Qingtian Sect early to cultivate.

Furthermore, after leaving the Qingtian Sect for a few days,

he especially missed the spiritual energy within the sect.

He really wasn't used to inhaling the thin spiritual energy outside.

"Wait a moment, Junior Brother Gu. There are still some small fry here. Let me, your Senior Brother, eliminate them before we return."

Hearing that Gu Chen was ready to return to the sect,

Night Owl hastily rushed toward Senior Brother He and the terrified Yuntian Sect disciples.

After returning to the sect this time, he didn't know when he would come out again.

If he didn't harvest one last wave, he would only be able to run to the back mountain of the Qingtian Sect to kill small rabbits.

"Ahhh!!"

Screams echoed above the secret realm.

Senior Brother He and the remaining Yuntian Sect disciples were all sucked into the Slaughter Mist by Night Owl.

Thus, all the Yuntian Sect disciples who came to the Barren Secret Realm for training, including the Saint Elder, were completely wiped out.

"Let's go, Senior Niu Bi, we should return to the sect." Seeing Night Owl wanting to kill one last wave before leaving, Gu Chen felt a bit helpless.

However, considering Night Owl's physique, he felt relieved.

"Understood, Gu Quasi-Disciple," Niu Bi acknowledged.

He gave Shang Tian a look.

The two of them unleashed a burst of power, carrying Gu Chen and the other three, disappearing from the entrance of the Barren Secret Realm.

"Phew, those Qingtian Sect people finally left."

"If they hadn't left sooner, I would have peed my pants from fear."

"You were about to? My pants are already wet."

After Gu Chen and his companions left,

the rogue cultivators still near the Barren Secret Realm all breathed a sigh of relief.

They were mainly terrified of Night Owl.

Although Niu Bi seemed overbearing, he wouldn't go so far as to kill ants like them.

But Night Owl was different.

He took pleasure in killing and used killing to increase his strength.

They were afraid that once Night Owl got excited from killing,

he would indiscriminately slaughter them all.

It would be truly unlucky to lose their lives just by watching the excitement.

As the rogue cultivators left the Barren Secret Realm,

the events here quickly spread throughout the nearby Twelve Provinces.

The entire cultivation world began discussing the Qingtian Sect, this mysterious sect that had suddenly appeared.

"Hiss, did you hear? When the Barren Secret Realm opened this time, a sect from Yun Province called the Qingtian Sect killed the Yuntian Sect's Saint Elder and hundreds of disciples."

"That can't be, right? In a place like Yun Province, there aren't even many Earth Venerables. Where did they get the strength to kill a Yuntian Sect Saint Elder?"

"Hmph! Judging people with dog eyes."

"My second uncle's grandfather was there at the time. Those Qingtian Sect guys were incredibly ruthless. Not only did they stomp the Yuntian Sect's Saint Elder to death, but they also slaughtered every Yuntian Sect disciple who escaped the secret realm. My second uncle's grandfather is still lying in bed from the shock."

"Holy crap, the Qingtian Sect is so overbearing. Aren't they afraid of retaliation from the Yuntian Sect?"

"Give me a break. Since they dared to kill so openly, how could they possibly fear the Yuntian Sect's retaliation?"

"True. I wonder what reaction the Yuntian Sect will have to this matter?"

At this moment, inside the Main Hall of the Yuntian Sect.

The Yuntian Sect Master sat on the throne, his face gloomy.

Below him,

several Saint Realm Elders also wore extremely grim expressions.

The events at the Barren Secret Realm had spread across the nearby dozen or so provinces.

As the overlords of Ling Province, they naturally knew about it long ago.

They were currently discussing how to deal with the Qingtian Sect, this newly emerged force.

"Elders, this Qingtian Sect from Yun Province dared to openly kill my Yuntian Sect's Elder and disciples. This Sect Master proposes initiating a Sect War, fighting the Qingtian Sect to the death." The Yuntian Sect Master sat on the throne, slowly opening his mouth.

First, Elder Yang was inexplicably killed by the backlash of a secret technique.

Now, Elder Liu and hundreds of Heavenly Soul Realm disciples were killed on their own turf.

This had already pushed him to the brink of fury.
