Chapter 183 – Slaughter Inten (1/2)

After a short moment of silence, it wasn’t long before the Flower Palace’s Wenren Yue walked towards the teleportation formation, and the disciples behind her hurriedly followed behind.

At the same time, the members of the Snow Palace were led by Leng Xinran towards the teleportation formation as well.

The two palaces were soon walking side by side.

When they arrived before the teleportation, Wenren Yue suddenly stopped and looked at Leng Xinran who was at her right and said, “It was my Flower Palace that entered the teleportation formation first the last time, so the Snow Palace can go ahead this time!”

Leng Xinran didn’t speak nor did she look at Wenren Yue as she directly led the members of the Snow Palace into the teleportation formation.

As they watched the members of the Snow Palace vanish within the formation, a beautiful female disciple behind Wenren Yue spoke with bewilderment. “Senior Sister Wenren, why did you allow the Snow Palace to enter first? In this way, wouldn’t everyone think that our Flower Palace is afraid of the Snow Palace?”

Wenren Yue shook her head and said, “If it was at an ordinary time, then we naturally can’t allow the Snow Palace to enter first. But it’s different now. In the recent years, our Flower Palace has offended numerous powers and clans. So, many will probably make a move against us from the shadows once we enter the Ascension Mountain Range. Even though we’ve been constantly competing with the Snow Palace, they aren’t a mortal enemy of ours, so there’s truly no necessity to form enmity with them just to enjoy a reputation.”

A wisp of worry flashed in the eyes of the woman behind Wenren Yue, and then she said, “Senior Sister, but Elder Cai Feng….”

“I’ll take responsibility for everything!” Wenren Yue spoke in a light voice, and then she walked towards the formation.

The woman sighed in a low voice before following Wenren Yue.

After the two palaces entered the Ascension Mountain Range, the gazes of everyone shot towards the Ghost Sect, the Sword Sect, and the Brightmoon Sect that everyone was on the verge of overlooking.

Even though the strengths of the three sects weren’t as formidable as the Origin School and the two palaces, there was no doubt that even the Sword Sect which had fallen into decline now wasn’t an existence that the clans could provoke.

This time, there was no silence as there had been earlier. After the members of the Snow Palace entered the formation, the members of the Ghost Sect had already started moving directly towards the formation, and they’d completely disregarded the Sword Sect’s members.

Situ Rong grunted coldly and hurriedly chased after the members of the Ghost Sect. Presently, he could be said to be the representative of the Sword Sect, so how could he display weakness to the Ghost Sect in public?

Yang Ye and Murong Yao followed as well when they saw this. Even though they disliked Situ Rong, they couldn’t allow outsiders to laugh at the Sword Sect. Of course, Yang Ye was doing it out of consideration for Su Qings.h.i.+. Otherwise, he would hope to keep as low a profile as he could. In his opinion, the order of entering the Ascension Mountain Range was utterly meaningless.

The enmity between the Ghost Sect and Sword Sect could be said to be common knowledge, so watching these two sects go against each other in public now was truly a rare sight.

As expected, when he saw Situ Rong lead the members of the Sword Sect towards the formation, the group from the Ghost Sect led by Xiu Luo had immediately stopped. Xiu Luo looked at Situ Rong while the contempt in his eyes wasn’t concealed at all. He said, “What? The Sword Sect has always been the last to enter, all of you’ve gained some ability now?”

Situ Rong refused to show weakness and counterattacked. “Xiu Luo, don’t think that you’re invincible just because you’ve comprehended Slaughter Intent. My Sword Sect is going to enter the formation first today, and if you’re disgruntled about it, then why don’t we have a spar on the spot?”

“Haha….” Xiu Luo suddenly roared with laughter. He laughed for a short moment before he gazed at Situ Rong, and his face was covered in disdain as he said, “You?”

As soon as he finished speaking, Xiu Luo’s figure suddenly transformed into a black shadow that shot explosively at Situ Rong. Situ Rong seemed to have been prepared, and the glow of a sword flashed at the same moment that Xiu Luo moved, and a snow white strand of sword qi instantly shot violently towards Xiu Luo.

Clamorous noise arose in the surroundings when they saw that the members of the Ghost Sect and Sword Sect had actually entered into battle on the spot…. Of course, most revealed excited expressions in their eyes. Because it was common for others to say that the disciples of the sects were monstrous geniuses, and they who were independent cultivators couldn’t compare to these geniuses at all. Now, they had the extremely rare opportunity of witnessing a battle between two disciples of such sects!

In the air, Li Si and Bai Qi watched indifferently and didn’t obstruct this from happening. Since the two of them hadn’t obstructed it, the Imperial Guards in the surroundings would naturally not obstruct it as well.

Under the gazes of everyone, the black shadow and sword qi collided with each other.

Bang!

An explosion resounded. After that, Situ Rong’s sword qi rumbled as it dispersed, whereas, the black shadow didn’t slow down as it continued shooting explosively at Situ Rong.

Situ Rong’s expression changed slightly when he saw this, and then the sword in his hand left a string of afterimages behind as it flashed towards Xiu Luo.

Bang!

The two of them split up as soon as they collided. But in the next moment, the two of them shot explosively towards each other once more.
