Chapter 1097: Query (2/2)

Apparently, she was surprised that Patriarch Pure Heaven could come out of the grand spell formation to fight two Demon grand patriarchs at the same time.

Nie Tian nodded slightly. “It seems that he refused to bend his knees to me for a reason. With the help of his Pure Heaven Ball and his sect’s grand spell formation, I suppose he can even contend against middle Saint domain experts like Jing Feiyang. No wonder the two grand patriarchs have failed to breach his sect within a short time.”

Nie Tian was also surprised that Patriarch Pure Heaven could channel the spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth from around the Realm of Pure Heaven and earth power from the depths of the earth, and use them as his weapons.

Feimos the Controller roared something in the Demons’ language.

Upon hearing him, Demons that were besieging the Pure Heaven Sect’s headquarters from different directions instantly flew skywards, and left for the starry river.

All of the Demons that had invaded the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries were at the eighth or ninth grade. They all had the ability to travel across the starry river without relying on starships.

WHOOSH! WHOOSH! WHOOSH!

Figures that were either enormous or elegant shot towards the highest heavens.

Hazlitt and Feimos gave up and withdrew upon seeing the arrival of the five Saint domain experts.

Nie Tian lifted his arm and ordered in a soft voice. “Go after them!”

All of the Saint domain experts except Jing Feiyang and Patriarch Pure Heaven then chased the Demons into the starry river.

Somewhat hesitant, Jing Feiyang turned to look at Nie Tian.

“Don’t worry. Even ninth grade grand patriarchs won’t be able to hurt us,” Pei Qiqi answered his question on Nie Tian’s behalf. “No matter what happens, I’ll be able to get Nie Tian out of danger.”

Her words put Jing Feiyang’s heart at ease. He nodded and also shot into the heavens.

At this moment, Nie Tian summoned his Spirit Pearl.

As it floated around in the sky, the discarnate souls of the dead eighth grade low-tier and high-tier Demons were pulled into it.

Face grim, Patriarch Pure Heaven floated in midair, holding his Pure Heaven Ball.

Only after a while did he approach Nie Tian. Fixing him with a deep look, he asked in a sullen voice, “Why did the Demons target my sect?”

“Because their hidden teleportation portal in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries was located in the vicinity of the Realm of Pure Origin,” Nie Tian answered. “It’s only natural that they attacked whoever was closest.”

Patriarch Pure Heaven’s face grew increasingly grim.

The Pure Heaven Sect had three major realms, the Realm of Pure Origin, the Realm of Gray Moon, and the Realm of Heavenly Light. He had expected what must have happened to the other two as soon as he had seen Hazlitt and Feimos.

Now that his sect’s three most important realms had been ravaged by the Demons, their strength had suffered a significant decline.

It seemed that they would lag far behind the other sects in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries. It would be almost impossible to catch up with them again.

“You’re the reason why the Demons showed up in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries, right?” Patriarch Pure Heaven questioned Nie Tian.

“That’s right.” Nie Tian didn’t deny it. “My subordinates and I wiped out many Demon clans in three Demon realms. It goes without saying that retaliation is the purpose of their invasion. But clearly, they didn’t know that your sect isn’t one of my subordinate sects. They just assumed that every sect in my subordinate domain must be my subordinate sect.”

Patriarch Pure Heaven grew furious. “So what happened to my sect was an accident?”

Nie Tian took his time to say, “I guess you can put it that way. My sect has already given the entire Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries to me. But since you refuse to join my force, I didn’t impose. And as for this Demon invasion, it’s an accident that the Demons targeted your sect first.”

Patriarch Pure Heaven laughed coldly. “Given to you? The Pure Heaven Sect has a long and proud history in the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries. For ten thousand years, we managed the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries carefully and kept everything in order. Now, the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace simply shows up and names it your private property?”

Nie Tian fell silent.

The four great sects had always dominated the human world.

Domains like the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries normally wouldn’t even interest them. It was only because of Nie Tian that they had announced that the Domain of Heaven’s Boundaries was his private property now.

Despite their domineering methods, most sects, like the Beast-controlling Sect and the Divine Flame Sect, had acknowledged and accepted their decision.

Who would have thought Patriarch Pure Heaven was so unhappy about it?

After hearing his argument, Nie Tian pondered for a while, and also felt that his sect’s doing was, in fact, rude and unreasonable.

However, when such things happened on the four great sects, it somehow seemed to be acceptable and make sense to many people.

However, Patriarch Pure Heaven happened to be a rebel.
