Chapter 14 The Fall of the Third Elder



It’s over…

This guy is dead...

This was everyone's inner monologue; they even mocked him in their hearts, thinking how arrogant and ignorant this person was to dare to anger a cultivator...

Poor Erpilian died just like that; under such a powerful attack, all three of them will cease to exist...

No matter what these people complained about, I couldn't hear a thing. All they could see was me looking at the Second Elder with disdain, as if mocking his overestimation of his abilities...

This made the Second Elder even angrier, feeling that he had been humiliated. My reaction gave him the illusion that the world had turned upside down, because shouldn't he, the great demon, be the one to laugh at others for overestimating themselves?

At this moment, the Second Elder was blinded by rage; all he wanted was to destroy this arrogant mortal before him…

He floated in mid-air, like the ruler of an apocalypse, looking down upon the world and enjoying the worship of all living beings…

The two giant dragons finally rushed towards me, and just like last time, they paused for a moment a meter in front of me before flying backward...

Holy crap…

An emotion a hundred times more shocked than before arose in everyone's hearts. How could such an attack have been rebounded?

The scene I imagined—three people turning to dust—did not happen; instead, all three were unharmed…

Looking up into the air, all that sense of superiority and looking down upon all living beings vanished in an instant…

The Second Elder never imagined that one day he would be caught off guard and thrown into such a state by his own attack…

If he were to fall into the hands of an ordinary person today, he would truly lose all face, and the prestige he had built up would be treated as a joke, constantly being humiliated and trampled into the ground...

But at this moment, he had lost control of the situation. Faced with his own all-out attack, he could only fight back with all his might...

A massive surge of spiritual energy emanated from the entire sect. The Second Elder roared and screamed as he clashed with his own attack…

So embarrassing...

This is the Second Elder's inner monologue. He has already sensed the Sect Master's arrival, and at this moment, he no longer has a chance to seize the ninth-tier magic treasure...

He's a joke now. Not only did he fail to show off, but he also lost face. He didn't get the treasure, and he offended everyone, even the sect leader is unhappy with him...

His position will face an unprecedented challenge, which will make him lose face and substance...

When everything dissipated, the evil aura emanating from the Second Elder had become extremely unstable, and his withered body was barely visible...

"I'm going to kill you..."

The Second Elder, who had completely lost his mind, had completely forgotten the humiliation of his attack being deflected. All he wanted was to kill me and regain the face he had just lost...

"That's enough..."

Just then, a middle-aged man with a gloomy face appeared between the Second Elder and me, blocking the Second Elder's attack...

At this moment, the long-faced and square-faced men were also freed. Before they could react, they saw the sect leader suddenly appear...

The two immediately knelt on the ground and said respectfully.

"metropolitan…"

"I understand. You two did a good job. If anyone dares to bully you again, come to me, and I'll stand up for you..."

The sect leader's words are like imperial edicts within the sect; who would dare to disobey them?

The entire sect heard the sect leader's words, and murmurs of envy and discussion filled the air, instantly satisfying the vanity of the long-faced and square-faced men...

Who would dare humiliate them now? With the sect leader's backing, they'll be the ones bullying others in the sect from now on...

Those who had humiliated them in the past were now filled with unease, fearing that the two would seek revenge later…

However, everyone clearly overestimated the intelligence of these two; at this moment, they were only concerned with having fun and had no intention of seeking revenge...

At this moment, their trust in my words had reached an extremely high level, because if they hadn't listened to my advice, they would still be those fools who could be humiliated by others, and how could they have become the great people that everyone admired?

"Sect Master, what are you doing? These two have no respect for their elders and have offended me, the Second Elder. Shouldn't they die?"

After being forced back by the sect leader's attack, the second elder's mind cleared instantly. Recalling everything that had just happened, he realized that he had fallen into an extremely passive situation...

However, he is the Second Elder, and compared to those two fools, he is more important to the sect. So even if what he said is false, out of respect for him, the sect leader will side with him...

It was precisely because of this mentality that the Second Elder did not choose to defend himself immediately, but instead directly distorted the truth, saying that even if he couldn't get the ninth-tier magic weapon, he would still kill Long Face and Square Face...

"Second Elder, I have my own decision on this matter. You should go back and recuperate in seclusion..."

The sect leader dismissed the matter with a single sentence, simultaneously stripping the Second Elder of all his power. To put it nicely, it was a period of seclusion; to put it bluntly, it was cutting off all contact with the outside world…

How could the Second Elder accept this? He was, after all, the third-in-command of the sect, used to throwing his weight around. He was absolutely unwilling to go into seclusion and endure such hardship…

However, he also knew the importance of a ninth-tier magic weapon. His actions had just touched the sect leader's sore spot. If he got the treasure, that would be one thing; with the power of the magic weapon, he could still struggle against the sect leader...

The situation is completely different now. The sect leader has at least given him some face and hasn't directly turned against him...

The second elder, panting heavily, finally chose to compromise. Just as he was about to speak…

The sect leader's expression changed drastically, which greatly alarmed the second elder. Could it be that the sect leader had changed his mind and wanted to kill him directly?

Under the Second Elder's anxious gaze, the Sect Master took out a jade tablet, the Third Elder's soul jade tablet, which had shattered...

There's only one possibility: the Third Elder has perished...

"metropolitan…"

The Second Elder stared at the Sect Master in disbelief, wanting to say something, but unsure where to begin…

"Summon the Grand Elders, let's meet in the council chamber..."

An indescribable rage surfaced on the sect leader's gloomy face...

The Ghost Fiend Sect only has three elders with the strength of an eighth-rank Martial Venerable. The loss of each one is an unbearable blow to the Ghost Fiend Sect...

At this moment, only one word can describe the impact of this event on the Ghostly Fiend Sect…

The sky has fallen...

Before the sect leader left, he didn't forget to take me with him...

After the sect leader and elders left, the pressure that had been weighing on everyone's hearts vanished instantly...

These ordinary disciples had no idea what was going to happen next. All they knew was that the long-faced guy and the square-faced guy were different now, and the two men they had teased, nicknamed "Two-faced," had upgraded their weapons...

To curry favor with those two ghosts, many people change their tune at lightning speed...

Flattery, as if it were free, instantly overwhelmed the two people, causing them to lose themselves and become lost in the sweet-coated bullets...

Inside the council chamber!

The atmosphere was incredibly oppressive; the three strongest members of the Ghost Fiend Sect were all gathered together at this moment…
