After leaping up, the Grand Elder's body began to swell, his limbs and head shrinking into his body...
"Holy crap... Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles..."
I instinctively gasped in surprise…
On the other hand, the elder was already excited. As he smashed the object at me, he shouted: "Take a gamble, and you'll be rich for three generations! Only by fighting to the death can you avoid failure..."
"Holy crap... did you come from northern Myanmar? You even know these slogans..."
However, I wasn't afraid. If the Second Elder was a mage, then the First Elder was a warrior. It was obvious that their cultivation paths were different—one focused on magical attacks, and the other on close-quarters combat…
The Grand Elder charged straight at me, and I could feel him vibrating at a high frequency as he hurtled towards me…
When a normal person is hit by a car, they not only suffer from the force of the impact, but the shock also penetrates the body, causing unbearable damage to the internal organs…
Most cultivators cultivate their physical bodies, but rarely cultivate their internal organs, which are the most vulnerable and the hardest to recover from once damaged…
Many cultivators suffer from hidden injuries that remain within their internal organs. Once these injuries flare up, the person is essentially crippled…
Bang!
The Grand Elder stopped a meter in front of me, and then, as if a ball bearing was embedded in something, he began to spin rapidly…
It took a full minute for the Grand Elder's body to be sent flying again...
boom!
The Grand Elder crashed through the roof of the council hall and flew out, the commotion immediately attracting the attention of all the disciples in the sect. Many recognized him at a glance…
"That looks like the Grand Elder..."
"The Grand Elder's cultivation has improved again; he can actually fly so high..."
"Why does it sound like the Grand Elder is screaming in agony?"
"Bullshit, that was the Grand Elder's triumphant shout when he broke through..."
"That's right, the Grand Elder is the strongest Martial Venerable, how could he possibly scream in pain?"
"But…"
"There are no 'buts' about it, the Grand Elder is powerful, that's for sure..."
"No...look..."
"What are you looking at? The Grand Elder looks incredibly powerful..."
Everyone thought to themselves, "You're such a suck-up! The Grand Elder can't hear you, so it's obvious you're flattering him..."
The next moment, everyone saw the First Elder fall freely and crash into the cliff behind the mountain…
"Is this also a side effect of the breakthrough?"
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent. To continue flattering the Grand Elder wouldn't be considered currying favor, but rather an insult…
But the next moment, everyone's hearts were even more uneasy. If it wasn't a breakthrough, then it must have been attacked. Who could knock the Grand Elder away?
In the hearts of all the disciples, there was only one answer: the sect leader…
But why did the sect leader attack the Grand Elder? Could it be because of that ninth-tier treasure?
Soon, countless versions of rumors circulated within the sect, causing widespread panic and the feeling that the Ghost Fiend Sect was about to undergo a major upheaval…
The Grand Elder was embedded in the cliff face; it was the kind of thing you couldn't pry off even if you tried…
In the end, it was only through the sect leader's intervention that he was brought back to the council hall…
"Is no one watching anymore?"
The Grand Elder's voice emanated from within, its meaning clear: if they were still outside, they wouldn't come out—it would be too embarrassing…
This blatant attempt to deceive oneself is truly touching; this level of intelligence comes from his shamelessness...
"Okay, nobody's here anymore..."
Upon hearing the sect leader's words, the Grand Elder finally stretched out his arms and legs, rolled over once, and then poked his head out...
The sect leader was also somewhat embarrassed; he hadn't even been able to tell the front from the back and had accidentally dropped the Grand Elder headfirst onto the ground...
"Hey... coward, are you a turtle that has become a spirit? Why are you behaving like a turtle?"
The elder, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, immediately flew into a rage upon hearing my words, feeling that I had been too sharp-tongued…
"Second brother, he dared to insult me. I'll give you a chance; help me kill him..."
The First Elder pointed at the Second Elder and commanded…
The second elder rolled his eyes at him, thinking to himself, "Thank you so much for giving me this opportunity, but I don't want it..."
"Brother, let's just forget about it..."
After hesitating for a long time, the Second Elder finally managed to utter this sentence, the eerie green light in his eyes dimming, conveying an attitude of "I can't do it..."
Even now, the Grand Elder hadn't realized that those two had deliberately made him make a move. The Sect Master wasn't confident he could suppress someone with a ninth-tier treasure; he was confident he couldn't obtain the treasure at all…
"Second brother, did you trick me?"
The elder jumped up and down, roaring angrily; he looked utterly ridiculous…
"Brother, you were the one who wanted to kill him to vent your anger, it has nothing to do with me..."
Hearing the Second Elder's words, the First Elder thought about it for a moment and realized that it did seem to be true. But then he became even more furious and said...
"Then why didn't you stop me? Did you want to see me make a fool of myself?"
The second elder felt a pang of guilt, but he concealed it well, saying weakly...
"Brother, you always keep your word. Who would dare to stop you? Wouldn't that be courting death?"
The elder's round body heaved like a balloon, clearly showing his frustration, yet he had no way to vent it...
"Hey... little turtle, why are you angry? Are you about to explode?"
Holy crap…
The other two couldn't stand it anymore; that was too nasty...
"You bastard, I've had enough of you..."
"Then come and kill me..."
That one sentence from the Grand Elder made him even more arrogant; he's probably not far from exploding...
"Sect Master, kill him..."
The Grand Elder spoke to the Sect Master, who was trying not to laugh.
"Elder, there's no need to be angry. If we can't defeat him, then we'll attack his family. I refuse to believe he'd abandon his family for a treasure he can't even use..."
