When gods fight, mortals suffer.
Some timid Nascent Soul cultivators were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and kowtowed to Song Yeyun, begging for mercy.
"That's right, Alliance Leader Song, the person was killed by the Sect Master of the Divine Sword Sect, it has nothing to do with us."
"Please, please let us go. We are all innocent."
A large group of people knelt on the ground, pleading with Song Yeyun for mercy.
But Chen Tianwen acted as if nothing had happened and asked, "What kind of explanation do you want?"
His voice was calm and composed, as if Song Yeyun's threat did not exist at all.
Seeing Chen Tianwen's expression, Song Yeyun's face grew increasingly grim, so dark it seemed as if water was about to drip from it.
"Apologize to me, then pay with your life and hand He Jiuhong over to my sect for punishment!"
Song Yeyun said coldly.
In his view.
This was already giving Chen Tianwen a way out.
You Buyu is the Grand Elder of his Xuantian Sect.
He Jiuhong was merely an outsider invited by the Divine Sword Sect from Yunzhou.
They've already suffered a huge loss by exchanging one of their elders for a mere outsider from the Divine Sword Sect.
"hehe!"
However, Chen Tianwen's response to Song Yeyun's conditions was merely a disdainful sneer.
He turned to look at Song Yeyun, his gaze as if he were looking at a clown, and said, "A life for a life? Does that stray dog from your Xuantian Sect even deserve it?"
Chen Tianwen's voice was mocking, showing no fear of angering Song Yeyun.
Upon hearing these words, Song Yeyun unleashed a powerful killing intent.
The temperature inside the entire hall dropped instantly.
Some cultivators whose cultivation level was below the Nascent Soul stage even trembled and shook violently under the biting cold.
"Please, Sect Leader Chen, apologize to Sect Leader Song, and let this matter rest."
"Yes, Sect Leader Chen, you should consider us."
"Let's hand Elder He over and exchange his life for his life. After all, the Divine Sword Sect was at fault first."
Below are representatives of several factions close to the Xuantian Sect.
Relying on Song Yeyun's influence, they actually wanted to force Chen Tianwen to hand over He Jiuhong to quell the incident.
These words resonated with many people.
They're only thinking about avoiding being caught in the crossfire.
They wanted to quell the situation as quickly as possible.
With the support of these people, Song Yeyun felt even more confident. He took a step towards Chen Tianwen, and the overwhelming pressure of the late-stage Nascent Soul realm swept over Chen Tianwen.
"I'll ask you one more time, do you accept it or not!"
His voice was cold and aggressive, as if he would attack Chen Tianwen at any moment.
"I won't accept it!"
Chen Tianwen simply refused.
After saying that, he crossed his legs and looked at Song Yeyun with an air of arrogance.
The air inside the main hall was thick with the smell of gunpowder.
The situation reached a stalemate.
Everyone was so frightened that they didn't dare to breathe.
And then I saw this scene.
Master Hongyuan, the head of the Wuchan sect, who had been observing the battle from the sidelines, chanted a Buddhist prayer: "Amitabha."
“Benefactor Chen, for the sake of the bigger picture, why don’t you hand He Jiuhong over to Alliance Leader Song? Once the sea tribe invasion is over, we can discuss a perfect solution, shall we?”
"I assure you, Fellow Daoist He will be in no danger during this period."
Master Hongyuan pondered for a moment and then proposed a seemingly mild solution.
After saying that, he looked at Song Yeyun: "Alliance Leader Song, what do you think?"
A cold glint flashed in Song Yeyun's eyes as he said, "Hmph, since it was Master Hongyuan who made the suggestion, for the sake of the bigger picture and for Master Hongyuan's sake, after He Jiuhong is handed over to my sect, I will not let her life be in danger."
After Song Yeyun finished speaking, everyone in the audience breathed a sigh of relief.
"Alliance Leader Song is benevolent, righteous, and of noble character."
"On behalf of everyone in Qingzhou, I thank Alliance Leader Song!"
"Having such a leader is a blessing for our Four-Party Alliance."
Amidst the praise, the gloom on Song Yeyun's face eased slightly.
Having received Song Yeyun's assurance, Hongyuan turned around and looked in Chen Tianwen's direction, saying, "Sect Master Chen, you see that Alliance Leader Song has already agreed, so you can hand over Fellow Daoist He now."
At this moment, everyone in the hall looked at Chen Tianwen with expectant eyes.
Watch as Hongyuan and Song Yeyun make their decision, exchanging words back and forth.
Chen Tianwen curled his lips into a mocking smile and said, "Old bald monk, you don't need to pretend to be kind to me here."
No one expected Chen Tianwen to respond like that.
This time, it wasn't just Song Yeyun who was affected; Hong Yuan's face also darkened instantly.
You Mengtian, who had been observing the situation, said upon seeing this, "Hey, Fellow Daoist Chen, how could you say that..."
Before he could finish speaking, Chen Tianwen interrupted him.
"Old drunkard, stop arguing and just keep pretending to be asleep."
Chen Tianwen showed no mercy whatsoever.
Chen Tianwen had already seen through their hypocrisy when they were planning to send people to investigate the Divine Sword Sect together.
At this moment, the two appeared to be pleading for the Divine Sword Sect.
In reality, they were taking sides, trying to make the Divine Sword Sect suffer this hidden loss.
Dealing with this kind of person.
Chen Tianwen didn't want to spout any grand principles.
He Jiuhong has proven that reasoning with them is completely useless.
And when Chen Tianwen actually offended all the sect leaders of the three top sects, Xuantian, Zuimeng, and Wuchan, in one fell swoop.
Everyone in the audience was completely dumbfounded.
"My God, he... he actually insulted all three Nascent Soul cultivators?!"
"They're insane! They're insane! The people of the Divine Sword Sect are all lunatics, lunatics!"
"He's really got us in deep trouble now. The wrath of three Nascent Soul cultivators at the same time is something we can't handle."
Unlike the representatives of other forces who all wore mournful faces, as if the sky were about to fall, He Jiuhong's expression was full of confidence. There was no sign of her worry that Chen Tianwen might not be able to withstand the anger of the three Nascent Soul cultivators.
Because she knew it was impossible.
Whether it was her or any other mercenary from the Chifeng Mercenary Group, they would have done the same.
They had witnessed it firsthand in the Purple Meteor Secret Realm.
Even the mighty Purple-Winged Scaled Ape King, a late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, submitted to Chen Tianwen's sword.
It is important to know that subduing a demon king who was in the late stage of the Nascent Soul realm and possessed ancient bloodlines was a challenge.
But it's much more difficult than killing one.
But Chen Tianwen only used one sword strike...
Such terrifying strength is something that even ten Nascent Soul cultivators together might not be able to achieve, let alone three Nascent Soul cultivators.
Therefore, she had complete confidence in Chen Tianwen.
On the other side...
After Chen Tianwen had insulted the three Nascent Soul sect leaders,
The three men's faces suddenly darkened.
A cold glint flashed in Song Yeyun's eyes.
He was initially wary of Chen Tianwen because he couldn't figure out his background.
But Chen Tianwen was so ungrateful that he insulted both Hongyuan and You Mengtian!
Isn't he just a complete lunatic?
Hongyuan and You Mengtian are now on his side.
Even if Chen Tianwen had the fighting power to rival a demon king, the three of them working together would have to admit defeat!
Thinking of this, a smile crept onto his lips.
