60: Chapter 60 I will not offend others unless they offend me.

Ji Taichang spoke slowly, "Wuding Sect, Yumen Sect, and Leiting Sect have joined forces to besiege the Qingyun Sect, framing us for colluding with the Demonic Cult in an attempt to destroy our Sect!"

"Upholding the principle that if others don't provoke me, I won't provoke them, but if they do, I will exterminate their entire clan, I have decided to take the initiative and root them out!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they were like a sudden clap of thunder!

Everyone present trembled, truly frightened by Ji Taichang's bold and crazy idea.

"You mustn't, Senior!"

"Th-this is too risky! The three Sects are powerful, and their foundations are no weaker than the Qingyun Sect's. Attacking all three at once is far too difficult!"

"A grudge must be avenged, but this is a bit too aggressive. We should plan this carefully..."

"I've heard that Yumen Sect and Wuya Sect are closely related. If we move against Yumen Sect, I'm afraid it will invite retaliation from Wuya Sect!"

"Senior, please calm down..."

The people of the Qingyun Sect hurriedly tried to persuade him, cold sweat dripping from their foreheads.

Ji Taichang's strength was indeed great.

But there might be Golden Core Stage Ninth Level powerhouses among the three Sects as well!

Once Ji Taichang was held back by a powerful enemy, the few people left in the Qingyun Sect would be finished.

"Throw one punch to open the way and prevent a hundred punches from coming!"

Ji Taichang's tone was calm, carrying an unquestionable majesty. "I will handle the matter of exterminating the three Sects personally. You all just guard the Sect well. As for Wuya Sect... Hmph, I'm not without connections!"

"I have invited Her Highness the County Princess of the Lanzhou Princes Mansion to assist us. She has sent a Prince's Mansion Guard, Fellow Daoist Zhu Jin!"

As Ji Taichang's voice fell, Zhu Jin, who was outside the door, nodded slightly toward him. A powerful Golden Core Stage Ninth Level pressure was released, and a golden token appeared in his hand.

This was the identity token of the County Princess of the Lanzhou Princes Mansion; seeing the token was like seeing Her Highness the County Princess in person!

"Wh-what?"

"Senior Ji, you... you actually have connections with the Lanzhou Princes Mansion?"

"You even brought a Prince's Mansion Guard and the County Princess's token... *Hiss!!*"

"We pay our respects to Senior Zhu Jin!"

"Thank you, Senior and Your Highness, for coming to the aid of the Qingyun Sect!"

Everyone in the Qingyun Sect was deeply shaken, both surprised and delighted. Their eyes held a bit more fanaticism and worship as they looked at Ji Taichang!

Just who was this Senior Ji Aotian?

Not only was his own strength formidable, but he also had deep ties with the Lanzhou Princes Mansion. He was far too mysterious and powerful!

Liu Cuilan, Cheng Yongge, and the other Qingyun Sect Cultivators all had a strange light in their eyes, feeling more and more that Ji Aotian was inscrutable and extraordinarily powerful!

"Li... Senior, please be careful!"

Lin Xueyue opened her mouth and said in a low voice.

Although she knew Ji Taichang was powerful and had the help of an expert from the Lanzhou Princes Mansion, she still instinctively worried about his safety.

"Don't worry."

Ji Taichang gave Lin Xueyue a confident smile.

Boom—

Just then, a loud roar suddenly came from the sky. A golden giant sword streaked through the air, making a whistling sound as it came to a halt above the Qingyun Sect.

"How dare you kill four of our Yumen Sect Elders and three hundred and seventy-two of our Cultivators! You have some nerve, Qingyun Sect!!"

"Today is your doomsday!"

A voice filled with Killing Intent and hatred descended from the sky, accompanied by the eruption of a powerful Golden Core Stage Eighth Level pressure that made the heavens rumble.

"Heh."

"I was just about to look for trouble with you, and I didn't expect you to actually deliver yourselves to my door!"

A playful, cold smile appeared on Ji Taichang's face. He took a step forward, leaving the Discussion Hall as if teleporting and stepping into the air!

He wore a bronze ghost-face mask, his black hair flying, and his dark cyan robe fluttering without wind. His tall and lean figure exuded an unfathomable Aura as he confronted the golden giant sword from a distance.

Lin Xueyue, Yang Yao, and the others also left the Discussion Hall, following closely behind Ji Taichang.

Hundreds, even thousands of people stood upon the golden giant sword, with a man and a woman standing at the very front.

One was an old man with white hair and bloodshot eyes, filled with rage and Killing Intent as he stared fixedly at Ji Taichang.

He was the Grand Elder of the Yumen Sect, Li Gaodan!

Among the four Yumen Sect Golden Core powerhouses previously killed by Ji Taichang was his own son!

Among the more than three hundred elite Yumen Sect Cultivators who had fallen, many were also his relatives, Disciples, and grandchildren!

Thus, Li Gaodan was extremely angry and sorrowful, personally coming to the Qingyun Sect to seek revenge!

The other person was a middle-aged woman in a floral dress. Her appearance was ordinary, but her face bore a haughty expression, as if she were looking down on everyone.

"You are Ji Aotian?"

"You're the scumbag who killed my Yumen Sect's people?!"

Li Gaodan's reddened eyes stared at Ji Taichang, looking like a terrifying beast ready to devour someone!

Behind him, many Yumen Sect Cultivators were also filled with hatred and Killing Intent, staring fiercely at the Qingyun Sect members.

"Not only did I kill your Yumen Sect's people, but I'm also going to exterminate your entire Yumen Sect!"

Ji Taichang grinned. A man of few words but ruthless actions, he directly took out the mystic rock tower and smashed it toward them!

Boom—

The palm-sized mystic rock tower swelled rapidly against the wind, instantly transforming into a towering ancient pagoda hundreds of feet high. Its entire body was surrounded by a mysterious yellow light, pressing down like a great mountain!

That terrifying Aura made Li Gaodan's whole body tense up, his hair standing on end!

"Impudent!!"

At this critical moment, the middle-aged woman beside Li Gaodan raised an eyebrow and pointed a finger. Surging spiritual energy condensed into a giant finger, like a pillar that supports the heavens, holding up the descending mystic rock tower.

"A top-grade Magical Artifact, plus your Golden Core Stage Ninth Level cultivation—no wonder you dare to be so arrogant and overbearing. You do have some strength."

"Unfortunately, you've provoked someone you shouldn't have!"

The middle-aged woman's tone was calm and indifferent. Her finger suddenly exerted force, and an Aura even more powerful and terrifying than Ji Taichang's erupted from her body, forcefully knocking the mystic rock tower away!

She stood with her hands behind her back, her eyes glowing with golden light. A vast pressure swept through the heavens and the earth, almost transcending the limits of the Golden Core Stage!

From Ji Taichang, a Golden Core Stage Ninth Level powerhouse, down to the Qi Refinement Stage Disciples, everyone found it difficult to breathe. They felt a terrifying sense of oppression, and their Souls trembled!

"This Aura... it's the Golden Core Stage Ninth Level Peak, not far from the Nascent Soul Stage!"

Lin Xueyue and the others were all shocked, their expressions becoming solemn.

The Yumen Sect actually had such a powerhouse??

Why had they never heard of this before?!

Ji Taichang was not at all afraid of the pressure she exuded. Instead, he looked at her with interest. "No wonder the trash of the Yumen Sect dared to come to our door; so it was you who gave them the courage."

"It seems you're the reinforcement sent by the Wuya Sect, aren't you?"

At these words, Lin Xueyue and the others were shocked once again!

Previously, they had only heard that the Yumen Sect and the Wuya Sect had some history, but they didn't know the specifics. They hadn't expected that the Yumen Sect would actually invite reinforcements from the Wuya Sect!

"Correct."

The middle-aged woman sneered. "I am the Seventh Elder of the Wuya Sect, Liu Xuanmiao!"
