Lingfeng's expression was somewhat strange, and he couldn't help but glance at Xie Zhou a few more times. He saw that Xie Zhou's eyes were filled with tears, and he still looked like he had suffered a great injustice.
"I trusted the Sword Sect and believed it could provide my grandson with a better education, but I never imagined that such a thing would happen within the Sword Sect! If the Immortal Venerable doesn't give me an explanation today, who will dare to send their children to the Sword Sect to study in the future!"
The bear clan chief flicked his sleeve and stared intently at Ling Feng.
"Waaaaah... Waaaaah..."
Before Lingfeng could speak, Xie Zhou's crying drew everyone's attention.
"You little brat, you're the culprit! And now you're crying?"
The bear clan chief stared at Xie Zhou. If looks could kill, Xie Zhou would have been killed many times over by now.
"Waaaaah, Xiong Yue injured himself. It has nothing to do with the Sword Sect."
Xie Zhou's words made Chief Xiong even more displeased.
"I watched with my own eyes as you shot my grandson down here, and you're saying he injured himself?"
Instead of getting angry, the Xiong clan chief laughed and slapped Xie Zhou without saying a word.
“Hey, Chief Xiong, as an elder, it’s against the rules to lay a hand on a junior.”
How could Ling Fengque allow someone to beat his apprentice right under his nose? That would be tantamount to slapping Ling Fengque in the face.
"Such unreasonable behavior suggests that this is the kind of upbringing your family has."
Xie Zhou wiped away his tears, his tearful demeanor completely changed.
"Do you know what Xiong Yue said? He said the Sword Sect is trash, and the Frost Palace is the trashest of the trash."
Xie Zhou's opening remarks stunned everyone.
Luo Fantian, standing to the side, was so shocked by Xie Zhou that his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
Even if…
"Chief Xiong, you don't mean to say that it's okay even if your grandson says such things, do you?"
Xie Zhou didn't give the Xiong clan chief a chance to speak at all, and directly asked with wide eyes.
"I just..."
"You just think your grandson is right to say that, and he doesn't need to be punished, right?"
Xie Zhou's skill at interrupting was truly first-rate.
"I know that your Xiong family is also a powerful clan, and it is common for you to look down on minor sects of immortals."
"Hmph, how can ordinary minor sects compare to our Xiong family, which has a century-old heritage?"
Upon hearing what the Xiong clan chief said, Xie Zhou almost burst out laughing. He hadn't expected the Xiong family to be so simple-minded.
“Xiong Yue just stood at the entrance of the Frost Palace, calling me trash, calling my master trash, and saying that the Sword Sect is nothing! I can tolerate Xiong Yue talking about me and cursing me, but insulting my master is unacceptable!”
As Xie Zhou spoke, he glanced at Ling Feng.
Lingfeng felt a headache coming on. He should have known better than to let Xie Zhou speak. Xie Zhou clearly wanted him to be a shield.
"If you look down on my Sword Sect, you are welcome to leave. We won't see you off!"
When Xie Zhou said this, everyone present was even more stunned.
"I believe my master would never allow someone who slanders the Sword Sect to remain in the Sword Sect. Not to mention the three thousand disciples of the Sword Sect, it's one person, but if he corrupts the other disciples and damages the reputation of the Sword Sect, can we then assume that the Xiong family wants to take over the position of the Sword Sect?"
Xie Zhou's words, once spoken, were astonishing.
Ling Feng's brows immediately furrowed, and his aura became much more imposing.
Indeed, apart from the four major sects, the Xiong family could stand out anywhere else, so Xie Zhou's words were not without reason.
"This... how is that possible! Our Xiong family is content to be the number one family in the cultivation world. We have never even considered the position of the number one sect."
Chief Xiong was so frightened by Ling Feng's sudden change that he broke out in a cold sweat.
"The fairy sisters present can all testify to what Xiong Yue said today, so how do you explain that!"
Xie Zhou's few words silenced the Xiong clan chief.
"But you've injured my grandson so badly, so it's still your fault!"
The bear chieftain finally regained some of his former prestige.
"I injured him? Chief Xiong, may I ask what your grandson's cultivation level is now?"
"My grandson is naturally gifted. He has already entered the intermediate realm for some time, and I believe he will soon be able to break through the first stage of the intermediate realm, the Lesser Vehicle, and become the Greater Vehicle!"
When asked about his grandson's cultivation level, the Xiong clan chief raised his head.
"Oh? I see."
Xie Zhou's smile grew brighter and brighter.
"May I ask, Chief Xiong, what is my cultivation level?"
"You...you...you're at the initial stage?"
The bear clan chief easily discerned Xie Zhou's cultivation level.
"Then what is the cultivation level of the senior brother next to me?"
"Halfway into the intermediate level?"
The bear chieftain's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.
"As you can see, how can someone at the initial stage, and someone who hasn't even reached the intermediate stage, defeat someone at the intermediate stage who is about to reach the Great Ascension stage?"
Xie Zhou sighed helplessly.
"Actually, what he just hit was a special restriction that our Sword Sect set up in the Frost Palace. Anyone who enters the Frost Palace without permission will bear the energy of the attack."
Xie Zhou was lying through his teeth.
"Such a thing actually happened?"
Chief Bear gasped.
"Otherwise, how do you think I'm alright! I'm just a useless nobody who hasn't even reached the intermediate level! How could I possibly defeat the exceptionally talented Xiong Yue!"
When Xie Zhou said another word, the Xiong clan chief fell completely silent.
"Enough with the nonsense, what I saw was you hitting Xiong Yue, and today I will take your life!"
This time, Chief Xiong was smarter. Instead of attacking Xie Zhou directly, he threw out three flying knives.
"Die!"
As they were speaking, the three throwing knives had already reached Xie Zhou's side.
"Oh my god! Master, save me!"
Xie Zhou was already injured, so he had no chance to defend himself against the sudden flying knife.
"well."
Lingfeng shook his head helplessly, easily deflecting the flying knife.
"Clan Chief Xiong, you injured my disciple right in front of me! Are you declaring war on the Sword Sect?!"
Lingfeng suddenly unleashed his aura, causing the Xiong clan chief's expression to change.
"Hmph, I'm taking my grandson back right now. You Sword Sect is better off gone!"
Chief Xiong's face darkened as he glared fiercely at Ling Feng.
"Chief Bear, let me remind you, your grandson is injured and hasn't received treatment yet. If you miss the best time for treatment, your grandson's right hand might be crippled."
Xie Zhou scratched his head, his eyes almost squinting into slits.
"snort!"
Chief Xiong glared at Xie Zhou one last time before leaving with his grandson.
