The old man who abandoned the heavens sighed, "Chu Tianyao, you have stood at the top of the Upper Realm in just a few short years."
"I was right back then... If Fairy Xiyue hadn't appeared, you might have become my disciple."
The old man who abandoned the heavens continued, "It's a pity that the heavens are jealous of talent. You were attacked by the immortals of the celestial realm and fell to this state."
“I did not intend to be enemies with Fairy Xiyue, but the young geniuses of Xuanhuang Pavilion have had their Dao hearts shattered by your, Chu Tianyao.”
"If we can't put an end to your arrogance, I'm afraid the younger generation of Xuanhuang Pavilion will completely shatter their Dao hearts!"
Kazama Ao looked at Chu Tianyao and said, "In the Upper Realm, the Fierce Blade Sect has never bowed down to any other sect."
"Purple Maple Forest is the first sect to demand tribute from the Fierce Blade Sect. This is a disgrace to the Fierce Blade Sect!"
"I always wash away the shame myself!"
The four Mahayana Realm experts felt their confidence return after seeing Chu Tianyao, who was seriously injured and had fallen from his realm.
They each said some polite words in an attempt to put down Zifenglin.
Chu Tianyao remained calm and showed no anger.
He actually waited a moment before slowly asking, "Are you finished talking?"
Yan Beiliang and the other three frowned, not understanding why Chu Tianyao remained so calm.
"If you've finished speaking, please leave..."
Chu Tianyao's gaze swept over the crowd, calm yet containing power, "This is your last chance."
Yan Beiliang's face darkened. "What do you mean?!"
"Is this... a bluff?" Master Xueyuan's expression changed slightly. "Why is he so calm!"
The old man who abandoned the heavens didn't speak, but just frowned.
Kazama Ao gripped his Gale Blade tightly, but dared not make a move...
Chu Tianyao, a cultivator at the first level of the Void Refining Realm, made the four Mahayana Realm cultivators' expressions solemn with just a casual remark!
This is simply because Chu Tianyao's influence was too strong in the past year, and his aura overwhelmed the True Realm.
Therefore, even though he was seriously injured and had fallen to this level, the others did not dare to underestimate him.
Chu Tianyao said calmly, "If you choose to continue attacking, I will kill you at all costs!"
His words were very plain, as if he were stating an ordinary fact.
"Not only that, I will also completely annihilate the sects you four belong to, and kill all the disciples within!"
"I will not spare any of your relatives and friends."
"If you continue to attack my master and continue to attack the Purple Maple Forest, I will immediately invoke the Heavenly Oath and will exterminate you and your relatives and friends!"
Yan Beiliang felt a jolt in his heart, and he found himself unconsciously considering retreating.
When he realized this, he felt a strange sense of humiliation!
He gritted his teeth and said fiercely, "You?! You're just a mere cultivator at the first level of the Void Refinement Realm, yet you dare to speak such harsh words in front of us?!"
"Just me!" Chu Tianyao said calmly, "I spent seven years going from a mortal in the Lower Realm to the strongest in the Upper Realm."
"I killed Xuanxiao and Yunche... I withstood the killing move of an immortal from the Immortal Realm at the top of Tiandu Peak."
"Despite being bombarded by the immortal artifacts, I still managed to regenerate my body by shedding blood."
"Do you think the four of you can kill me?"
"Throughout my journey, no matter how powerful the opponent, they all ultimately fell to my hand!"
"Do you think I can wipe you out and the sects behind you?!"
Yan Beiliang fell silent; he couldn't refute Chu Tianyao's words.
Kazama Ao was also burning with rage, but he didn't dare to make a move against Chu Tianyao!
"Why is this happening... He's only at the first level of the Void Refinement Realm, yet he exudes such an intimidating aura?"
Cold sweat poured down Xueyuan Zhenren's forehead; he was beginning to regret the words he had just spoken.
Back then, I was the first to represent Winterfell City in surrendering and showing goodwill to Chu Tianyao...
Now it seems as if all previous efforts have been in vain.
The old man of Xuanhuang Pavilion remained silent, a strange thought forming in his mind.
If those four continue to attack, they will die in the Purple Maple Forest today!
Chu Tianyao's gaze swept over the four people, and he slowly said, "You used to be on good terms with Zifeng Forest and sent them many rare and precious materials."
"But if you attack Zifenglin today, then you are no longer a friend of Zifenglin, and therefore no longer a friend of me, Chu Tianyao."
"I will not return the rare and precious materials you once gave me. This is the price you pay for attacking Purple Maple Forest!"
"You no longer need to give Purple Maple Forest any magical artifacts, because you are no longer my friends."
"I'll stop here today, and I promise I won't cause you or your sect any more trouble!"
At this point, Chu Tianyao paused, "Life and death are in your own hands."
The old man who abandoned the heavens stared intently at Chu Tianyao and found no trace of panic in his eyes.
"This person is so confident; he must have other trump cards up his sleeve! Since things can be resolved this way, my sect will no longer need to pay tribute... so we can consider our objective achieved!"
"There's no need to continue this deadly battle with Chu Tianyao!"
Thinking of this, the old man Qitian spoke first, "Fairy Xiyue, Young Master Chu, I have offended you today!"
"Please forgive me... I shall take my leave now."
Having said that, the Old Man of Abandoned Heaven turned and left without lingering.
Yan Beiliang's expression changed several times before he finally let out a long sigh!
"Enough, enough!" He cupped his hands in greeting to Chu Tianyao. "Young Master Chu, my trip was truly absurd. Please forgive me."
Yan Beiliang bowed to Xia Xiyue again, then transformed into a rainbow and vanished.
After the old man who abandoned the heavens and Yan Beiliang left one after the other, everything seemed to become clear.
Kazama Ao and Yukibuchi no Makoto had no other choice...
Putting everything else aside, Xia Xiyue alone is someone the two of them cannot contend with.
A wise man knows when to yield, so Master Xueyuan stepped forward with a heavy heart. "Senior Chu... I was blinded by greed to do such a thing."
"I hope Senior Chu and Senior Xiyue will not hold a grudge against Winter City because of this. I will take my leave now."
After saying that, Master Xueyuan left without looking back.
Kazama Retsu didn't speak. He cupped his hands in greeting to Xia Xiyue and then transformed into a rainbow and disappeared.
What could have escalated into a life-or-death conflict was easily resolved by Chu Tianyao.
Xia Xiyue looked at Chu Tianyao, a hint of heartache flashing in her eyes.
"Tianyao...you shouldn't have come out just now, it was far too dangerous..."
Chu Tianyao chuckled and said, "Xi Yue, I can't let you face four Mahayana Realm experts alone. After all, you've only just fallen in realm."
Xia Xiyue bit her red lips and said with a hint of anger, "Even if I lose my cultivation level, I still won't lose to the four of them!"
"I know... but you'll get hurt..." Chu Tianyao raised his hand and gently stroked Xia Xiyue's cheek. "I can't let my woman get hurt again..."
