844 Not Following Rules (2/2)

In the end, a sudden laugh spread about the hall, causing Mufang and the others to feel their eyes and ears go giddy, unable to speak anymore.

Only then did Hong Jiuchen start feeling angry once more as he bowed toward the old man, ”Does Old Poison have something to teach us?”

The old man looked at him, not giving a reply, just laughing coldly.

”Useless thing!”

His voice was still like a drum, piercing everyone's ears. Then, he looked toward the group of people.

”My Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty definitely has to take this Yuanlian World! These are orders from the Saint Emperor of the Dynasty, they can't be gone against!”

When Zong Shou heard this, he used his wine to wet his lips.

Orders from the Saint Emperor of the Dynasty, they can't be gone against? Then, what about rules?

Suddenly, threads of green mist spread about in the hall.

Everyone tensed up, wary expressions appearing on their faces.

”Which is why I ask the few of you to consider it more carefully.”

The old man spoke with his eyes half-opened and closed. His tone was one that wasn't to be doubted.

”Also the promise to the two of you from before is still active! Those two small-sized worlds are still unchanged...”

Mufang frowned when he heard this, the promise remains?

If this was before he would agree. No matter how unwilling he was, he could only do that.

However, now the situation had changed and it was totally different from dozens of days ago.

A small sized world which was only 4,000 miles large, moreover, it didn't totally belong to him. How could he be willing?

If he swallowed Tanjing's land, he would earn more today.

Fuyue mocked, ”Your Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty is really generous! Your plan is really good. Unfortunately, I am not interested...”

”It is not up to you all!”

The old man laughed, not bothering at all, ”Does Cultivator Fuyue believe that I can make it such that you cannot leave this place? Or maybe a certain day you will die for no reason and people won't be able to determine the reason?”

Fuyue was stunned and then totally furious, he clenched his fists tightly, ”You dare?”

”Why wouldn't I dare?”

Old Poison shook his head, ”Do you still think that Xuanchen will stick up for you? As for Jijue Saint Emperor, he won't have time to bother about this matter! My Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty will just pay a price to buy the life of a Celestial! Does Cultivator Fuyue think so?”

Just a flat sentence caused Fuyue to hold his breath. Even Mufang's eyes flashed and he started to hesitate.

Zong Shou listened quietly below, a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

”Can't walk out of this Wushen Celestial Palace? Silently and dying for no reason?”

With a thought, the Nameless Sword started to hang outside of his sleeve.

Sword Intent within was waiting to explode out.

”If I understand that correctly, are you threatening? Do you want to directly interfere in this battle for Yuanlian World?”

When the old man heard this, he looked toward Zong Shou with some slight interest.

”It can't be considered a threat, it is just a warning. However, so what if it is? What can you do to me?”

After asking him this, the old man shook his head and laughed, ”Today, I will teach you to be well behaved! There are still rules in the conquering of outer regions, but there is a need to be flexible. Like for example this Yuanlian World, my Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty has to have it! Even if we break the rules, we don't care! Xuanling Guild and Jijue Celestial Dynasty can take revenge if they are not happy to fight with us. However, if they aren't willing to fight, then we can discuss the matter and take out more things to compensate. Cultivator Mu, are my words correct?”

Mufang didn't say a word, his expression was really ugly. When the thin old man heard this, he laughed coldly as if he expected it. Following this, he said, ”If Ruler is not happy, you can bring someone over to reason with me. However, you have to follow my words today! Why not listen to what Tanjing said, both sides call it quits, shake hands and make peace…”

When his words were spoken, he heard a casual voice spread out from below.

”Ask someone to reason with you? There is no need!”

A training-like Sword Light suddenly filled the room. The cold shadow exploded out, a blood light shone. Everyone wanted to retreat in that instant.

The green mist which covered the hall was also removed by this red shadow that swept all around.

They didn't feel the sharp Sword Light nor sense the Sword Intent suppressing them. However, the few people in the hall were instantly terrified.

This was because they knew that within the vast Sword Shadow, all the Martial Path Intent, all of its sharpness was gathered on one point, none of it leaked out.

It was the Massacring Sword Intent!

The old man was both shocked and furious. He didn't expect that Zong Shou would dare to suddenly attack him.

Then, a mocking thought rose up in his heart. Even if this Killing Path Sword Technique reached Peak Soul Realm, how would it do anything to him?

With a thought rising up, a Seven-Colored Mist spat out around his body.

It was to block the Sword Light which was charging over, but he instantly felt that it wasn't right.

The Sword Shadow shot out and was totally unobstructed by the Seven-Colored Poison Barrier. It was like it smashed through time and made its way through.

Numerous stars appeared around him, causing the internal energy and Soul Power in his body to go haywire.

The Sword Shadow stirred and his head was already tossed up into the air.

When everyone came back to their senses, they saw that the withered thin old man at the elevated part of the hall was only left with a headless body. He stood on the platform and there was no sign of life left in his body.
