Elder Qinglian's voice also changed from calm and composed to slightly agitated, until it finally became almost a roar!
It's fair to say that without Chen Tianwen, the Immortal Sword Sect would have been wiped out long ago!
Who among those standing here today wasn't saved by Chen Tianwen?
Chen Yumeng excitedly grabbed her father's hand. She only just realized how much her brother had done. No wonder Sister Xia and Uncle Qinglian protected her and her father so much.
Chen Xiaotian was overcome with emotion, tears streaming down his face. He thought of how his son had been dragged thousands of miles to get to this point, how much suffering his son had endured! But now, son, where are you?
"We, the disciples of the Immortal Sword Sect, would never do such a despicable thing. We are willing to protect our sect leader's relatives!"
An elderly man with white hair stepped out from the crowd, his voice excited but full of energy!
"The Grand Elder?"
"The Grand Elder has emerged from seclusion?"
Some disciples recognized the old man before them and exclaimed in surprise.
Xia Anyu also quickly bowed. The old man walked up to Elder Qinglian, bowed again, and continued:
"Elder Qinglian, I am willing to fight to the death with the Chen family of Yunzhou!"
The newcomer was none other than Hou Gu, the Grand Elder of the Immortal Sword Sect—or rather, the former Grand Elder.
Back then, Hou Gu's disciple Song Shixing and Xu Xinrou colluded to target Chen Tianwen at every turn. Later, they were killed by Chen Tianwen, who also stripped Hou Gu of his position as a sect elder and punished him by making him reflect on his mistakes in seclusion!
Meiha knew that Hou Gu's prestige in the sect was no less than Xia Anyu's, and that Chen Tianwen had punished Hou Gu in this way, so Meiha wanted to get Hou Gu to help him.
Unexpectedly, Hou Gu was the first to speak up and stand on Chen Tianwen's side, which greatly surprised Meha.
Xia Anyu looked at Hou Gu with some surprise. She didn't expect that after so long, Hou Gu would not only not hold a grudge against Chen Tianwen, but would also stand up to support Chen Tianwen at this time!
Moreover, Hou Gu also possesses the strength of the Nascent Soul stage. With Hou Gu emerging from seclusion, the chances of defeating the Chen family of Yunzhou have increased!
Elder Qinglian patted Hou Gu on the shoulder and said:
"Elder Hou, you will henceforth be appointed as the Grand Elder of the Immortal Sword Sect and take charge of the Weapon Refining Peak again!"
As the most senior member of the sect, Elder Qinglian's words are equivalent to the sect's orders when the sect leader is absent!
Hou Gu nodded heavily, his eyes glazed over, looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar Refining Peak, tears streaming down his face!
Elder Qinglian then looked at the group of Immortal Sword Sect disciples and said:
"Now, who dares to say they will hand over the sect leader's relatives, be expelled from the Immortal Sword Sect, and be hunted down by the Immortal Sword Sect for eternity!"
The disciples nodded obediently and quickly accepted the order!
Meha also slunk away from the place.
...
"idiot!"
Blood Emperor slapped Meha hard across the face, and Meha's face instantly swelled up like a pig's head.
Knowing his attempt to sow discord had failed, Meha returned directly to the Blood Fiend Sect without lingering. However, as soon as he reported the events within the Immortal Sword Sect, he was slapped hard by the Blood Emperor.
Meha didn't dare to argue and knelt on the ground, trembling.
"Tian Xiang, what did the Chen family of Yunzhou say?"
The Blood Emperor didn't even glance at Meha kneeling on the ground again, and asked Tian Xiang.
Tian Xiang immediately knelt down and said respectfully:
"Despite the sect leader's favor, the Chen family is willing to form an alliance with my Blood Fiend Sect and has agreed to give 70% of the Immortal Sword Sect's assets to my Blood Fiend Sect!"
Blood Emperor nodded in satisfaction, but then, remembering the disappointing Meha, he became furious and started punching and kicking Meha again!
Outside the Immortal Sword Sect, all the sect's elders and disciples were on high alert.
Elder Qinglian, Xia Anyu, and Elder Hougu stood in front of the disciples.
These are the only three Nascent Soul stage experts remaining in the Immortal Sword Sect!
Today is the day the Chen family of Yunzhou agreed to capture Chen Xiaotian and Chen Yumeng. Originally, the two did not want to implicate the Immortal Sword Sect and kept saying that they would go down the mountain to face the Chen family directly.
Elder Qinglian, fearing something might happen to the two, used a secret technique to knock them unconscious and hid them within the forbidden area of the Immortal Sword Sect.
Then Elder Qinglian summoned all the disciples of the sect to fight a decisive battle against the Chen family of Yunzhou outside the mountain gate!
As noon approached, a series of powerful figures arrived on swords, their presence obscuring the sky!
Elder Qinglian frowned deeply. He hadn't expected the Chen family of Yunzhou to send so many people. Wait, why did some of the Chen family members look so familiar? They were from the Blood Fiend Sect!
Unexpectedly, the Blood Fiend Sect members were actually wearing Chen family clothes and mixed in with the Chen family's group!
It turns out that because the Third Prince spoke up, the Blood Fiend Sect dared not disobey the Third Prince's wishes and destroyed the Immortal Sword Sect. But since the Chen family came to destroy the Immortal Sword Sect, the Third Prince could not blame the Blood Fiend Sect, right?
Therefore, the Blood Emperor sent people to form an alliance with the Chen family, and then let the experts of the Blood Fiend Sect mix in with the Chen family's troops to jointly attack the Immortal Sword Sect!
"Hand over Chen Xiaogu and his daughter! We might spare the Immortal Sword Sect's life!"
The Chen family landed outside the Immortal Sword Sect's mountain gate, and Chen Xingguang, who was in the lead, spoke in an unfriendly tone.
Chen Xingguang is the current head of the Chen family. Thinking that he, the main branch of the Chen family, has been replaced by a branch of the Chen family from a small place for so long, Chen Xingguang plotted a rebellion after Chen Tianwen disappeared.
Now they've even gone to the Immortal Sword Sect, preparing to wipe out this branch of the family from a small place!
"Stop with the nonsense, let's fight!"
Elder Qinglian, known for his fiery temper, looked at the Chen family members with disgust and spoke.
Chen Xingguang laughed in anger and said sarcastically:
"I didn't expect that the mighty Immortal Sword Sect would only have three Nascent Soul stage experts?"
"A late-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, and a young girl in the early-stage Nascent Soul realm?"
Chen Xingguang looked at Xia Anyu with lewd eyes and teased her:
"This little girl is not bad. Don't kill her later, take her back. I need her tonight!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Tian and the others burst into laughter and started to cheer!
The members of the Immortal Sword Sect were furious, gritting their teeth. Xia Anyu's eyes widened in anger, and she wished she could devour them alive.
However, they saw that there were actually seven Nascent Soul stage experts on the other side, and three or four Nascent Soul stage experts from the Blood Fiend Sect were also hiding among them.
Xia Anyu also began to feel anxious. Facing ten Nascent Soul stage experts, the Immortal Sword Sect had no chance of winning!
"An Yu, take the Chen family father and daughter and escape in a bit!"
Elder Qinglian secretly transmitted his voice to Xia Anyu, saying that Elder Qinglian had already made up his mind to die!
Even if it means death, we must find a way to protect Chen Tianwen's relatives, otherwise we will not be able to die in peace.
Xia Anyu shook her head, her gaze resolute. She couldn't abandon her sect and run away at this moment!
This sect was handed over to me by Chen Tianwen. If I can't protect this legacy, I won't be able to hold my head high when facing Chen Tianwen in the future.
Although Elder Qinglian was secretly anxious, he knew that there was no time to persuade Xia Anyu at this moment, so he could only sigh silently!
