427 Faceoff in the Camp (2/2)
The true qi and essence energy also started to strengthen the bones all over his body. Using the dragon essence hidden in his body as well as the remaining lightning phoenix essence.
Every passing day Zong Shou would feel that his body was getting stronger. Since he had broken through, the strength of his physical body was growing at an explosive rate.
And just 20 days later, under Xuan Shu's leadership, the group of them passed that Guangling Han River and were at the other end of the desert. They were just 13 thousand miles away from that Yan City Pass.
At this moment those common people mysterious dragon warriors were still okay, not affected much by the tough environment of the desert.
Those elite sect disciples, on the other hand, were unfocused and devoid of energy. Only when they knew that they were about to exit the desert did they regain some liveliness.
Only their grievances towards Zong Shou was unchanged and slowly rising.
On the night when they set up camp, this grievance was finally showing signs of exploding.
Zong Shou's sleeping tent was arranged in the center of the entire camp. He was sitting next to the campfire, comprehending the terra word talisman of the 5 elements. Following which he saw Xie An slowly walk over.
He walked 3 thousand feet out before stopping and sweeping coldly over.
”First seat do you know that many of the sect disciples have hatred and grievances against you in their hearts?”
Zong Shou was helpless and knew that he could forget about comprehending quietly now. He could only stop and open his eyes, ”I know, but what does this have to do with Yan City Pass?”
Xie An's lips curled up, his hand pressing on the sword, his expression filled with disdain, ”I am lazy to fight with you, if you want to act like this there is nothing I can do. I only want to ask, did you tell my junior brother Li that our Xuanyang Sect disciples only had so little skill?”
Zong Shou was startled as he looked out at Li Zhe who was amongst the group of people. Only to see that his face was at a loss, nervously looking over. Like he didn't expect that Xie An would come over and ask him about it directly.
”I have never said that before!”
Xie An's expression relaxed slightly. However, he wasn't willing to leave just like that. He suddenly stepped forwards, a suppressive sword aura suddenly rose up.
”Is great senior master Tan willing to swear on a heart demon?”
Zong Shou's pupils constricted, no matter how tame his personality was he couldn't help but feel infuriated.
The corner of his eyes looked at Li Zhe, his face had flushed red and his nervousness was even thicker.
He knew that with one word he could tear apart his lies. However Zong Shou smiled coldly, directly shaking his head, ”I am unwilling!”
That Li Zhe was startled, following which he smiled, his expression turned into that of a gloating one.
Xie An's expression also instantly turned dark. A long while later he took in a deep breath, ”Good! A year later I Xie An will battle you for the position of the first seat. I will let you see how skilled our Xuanyang Sect disciples are. I hope at that time you can break through to the 7th grade!”
After he finished he wasn't willing to speak to Zong Shou anymore, directly turning around and leaving.
Zhao Yanran felt weak as she heard those words. Before Xie An even walked far, she helplessly said towards Zong Shou, ”First seat Tan! You know that Li Zhe is trying to sour your relationship. Can't you just take a step back? You didn't do it and it is just an oath, why must you care so much?”
That Xie An suddenly stopped in his tracks like he was waiting for Zong Shou's reply.
Zong Shou expressionlessly shook his head, ”I didn't say those words in the past. However today I think that the skill of this generation of Xuanyang Sect disciples are just so so.”
The elite disciples of Xuanyang Sect were originally looking over with rage in their eyes. When they heard that they all stood up, hands pressing on their swords, causing the atmosphere in the area to freeze.
As for that Xie An he suddenly turned around. His eyes were as sharp as an arrow as he looked over like he wanted to pierce Zong Shou's body with many holes.
Luoshi who was no far away mocked lightly, ”What big words! Xuanyang Sect's junior brothers and senior brothers even my Hanling Sect are just on the same level. Does the first seat also think that our Hanling Sect disciples are just so so too?” Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please clickfor visiting.
Zong Shou smiled and was unwilling to debate and argue with them, however his expression spoke for itself. Towards Luoshi's words, he was in full agreement.
At this moment not only were Xuanyuang disciples green-faced, but the faces of the Hanling Sect people also weren't pretty either.
Zhao Yanran didn't say anything, weakly standing together with Xuan Yunlan and staring right at Zong Shou.
The latter didn't feel anything, just silently being on full alert. His personality was just like that.
If people give me an inch, I will give them a foot. If they offend me I will give it back to them tenfold.
He was worried about not having an excuse to give this bunch of people a beating. The reason he sat on the carriage was also to provoke them. It was best if they could turn on him. If these arrogant people turned on him, then he would beat them up until they were tamed and followed his orders.
Xie An's expression became colder. Luoshi also walked out coldly. The atmosphere of the entire camp was a spark away from exploding. Then, a cold scoff broke out.
