"I am a reclusive cultivator from the Myriad Swords Sect. Lu Chen is my disciple. May I ask what brings you here to seek out my disciple, Venerable One?"
The patriarch of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect clasped his hands in a fist salute, his body hunched over even more, his posture appearing extremely humble.
"I am Venerable Wu Tian. Tell your disciple to come out, or I will go in and find him myself!"
This golden-armored Venerable was named Wu Tian. He was a highly renowned Venerable Realm expert in the Great Qin Empire, a solitary cultivator, but extremely domineering and with a bad reputation.
Of the five major sects, only the Ten Thousand Swords Sect currently lacks a Venerable Realm expert.
The other four major sects all have a Venerable One presiding over them.
Therefore, Venerable Wu Tian arrived at the Myriad Swords Sect immediately, taking the initiative to strike first.
"My disciple has been diligently cultivating within the sect; I wonder where he has offended you, Venerable One?"
The old ancestor still wore a humble expression on his face.
"Hmm? You dare to lie to me, Venerable One? Your disciple just came out of the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm, and there are rumors that he is colluding with the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect. As a Venerable One of the Human Race, it is natural for me to inquire about this. Do you have a problem with that?"
Wu Tian glanced coldly at the patriarch of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, his expression full of disdain.
"My disciple absolutely did not collude with the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect. I beg Your Excellency to investigate thoroughly!"
"Insightful observation? Heh, isn't this exactly what I'm doing? Enough nonsense, let Lu Chen, that brat, get out here, or else... Hmph!"
The old ancestor suddenly straightened up, looked up and stared directly at Venerable Wu, and said calmly, "My disciple escaped from the Heavenly Demon Secret Realm by chance, but was seriously injured and is currently in seclusion to heal. He is unable to come out to see Venerable, please forgive him!"
"Very well, I will go see him myself!"
Wu Tian smiled.
"Is Your Excellency's true intention not what it seems?"
The old ancestor laid his cards on the table, his cloudy old eyes staring intently at Venerable Wu.
"How dare you!"
Venerable Wu's face turned cold, and he was about to make a move.
Suddenly, a figure approached from afar and arrived right in front of them in the blink of an eye.
It was Lu Chen.
"I'm Lu Chen. You wanted to see me? What's up?"
Lu Chen couldn't stand it any longer. He didn't want his ancestor to fight this Venerable directly. With his ancestor's current strength, he was no match for the Venerable.
Wu Tiandao said, "So you are Lu Chen? Hmph! You actually colluded with the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect. What I hate most is colluding with those from the Demonic Sect. Why don't you surrender now?"
Lu Chen remained calm and asked, "Your Excellency claims that I colluded with the Holy Maiden of the Demonic Sect. Do you have any evidence?"
Wu Tian said, "Evidence? My words are the evidence. Hmph, whether you are colluding with the Demonic Sect is not up to you to say. Just open your soul to resist and let me search your soul memories to find out!"
"hehe!"
Lu Chen didn't get angry; instead, he laughed.
To let your soul resist is tantamount to being slaughtered, and the other party could easily destroy your soul, let alone a Venerable One.
Lu Chen finally couldn't hold back any longer and angrily retorted, "A mere trash Venerable dares to try and bully others with his power? Do you even deserve it?"
"..."
Everyone present was stunned.
Even the patriarch of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect never expected that Lu Chen would be so impulsive as to directly confront Venerable Wu Tian head-on.
"Haha! Using power to intimidate?"
Enraged, Venerable Wu laughed and said, "Very well, I'll show you what it means to use power to oppress others!"
After saying that, Venerable Wu stretched out his hand.
As soon as the Venerable One made his move, it seemed as if all the spiritual energy in the world was mobilized, pressing directly towards Lu Chen. The surging spiritual power was like heaven and earth compared to a Heavenly Martial Realm expert.
The gap is too big.
"Run!" Yun
Suddenly, a figure flashed and blocked Lu Chen's path; it was none other than the patriarch of the Myriad Swords Sect.
A sword suddenly appeared in the ancestor's hand.
A broken sword, its surface gleaming white, exuded a chilling aura.
Sword energy spread across his withered body.
Wu Tianzun's expression suddenly changed slightly. He reached out to grab Lu Chen, but as soon as he touched the broken sword in the ancestor's hand, he immediately withdrew it.
"You're asking for it!"
Wu Tianzun then struck the ancestor directly with a palm strike in the void.
A giant palm formed from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth descended directly upon the ancestor, its powerful aura rendering him unable to move.
The most terrifying thing about Venerable Ones, besides their abundant and powerful spiritual energy, is that they possess a strong aura that can mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, creating a terrifying pressure on their enemies.
The difference in strength is simply too great.
"break!"
The ancestor spat a mouthful of blood onto the broken sword, then gripped the sword with both hands and slashed fiercely at Venerable Wu.
This sword strike directly cleaved apart the giant palm that Venerable Wu had conjured, breaking his attack.
"Why aren't you running away?"
The old ancestor suddenly turned around and glared at Lu Chen.
"Escape? Why would you escape?"
Lu Chen sighed and said, "If I escape, what will happen to them?"
He glanced back at the Wanjian Sect's mountain gate.
The old ancestor was taken aback, then suddenly laughed.
"Good! Today, you and I, master and disciple, will join forces to fight a Venerable Realm expert. This life will not have been in vain!"
Our ancestors were already prepared to fight to the death.
However, Lu Chen shook his head and said calmly, "No need, I can do it myself!"
In an instant, a battle blade appeared in Lu Chen's hand.
Blood-red battle blade.
Then, Lu Chen transformed into a blur and instantly rushed towards Venerable Wu.
Blood Demon Escape!
call out!
Lu Chen vanished completely.
"What?"
Venerable Wu Tian was so frightened that his face changed. He never expected that Lu Chen, whose cultivation level was at most the Heavenly Martial Realm, would be so fast.
