And Tempering An Unsullied Body - Chapter 199

The Sword Qi was ethereal and merged with Heaven and Earth as if it had already dissipated. However, only those with high cultivation could feel the Sword Intent that was omnipresent in the air.

Before the person arrived, the sword arrived first. What kind of superb sword technique was this?

They were surrounded by the gales! Only one person with extraordinary sword techniques could do it!

That was the Tiangang Sword Sect’s Xie Mingze!

“I say, you guys are a big sect after all. Why are you bullying a small sect like this?”

As expected, after seeing the person clearly, the Ancient Sect’s Sect Master gnashed his teeth. “Xie Mingze, didn’t you say that you were going into closed-door cultivation? Why are you here?”

The last time they invited the Tiangang Sword Sect, Xie Mingze found an excuse and said that he was going into closed-door cultivation to relearn the way of the sword. However, now that he was here, it was inevitable that people’s imaginations would run wild.

After all, previously, the sword sect almost defected to Gu Xi’s side and swore to protect him to fight his way out of the encirclement.

Xie Mingze said indifferently, “Entering the human realm is also considered a kind of cultivation. I heard that there are people who bully the weak here, so I came over to take a look.”

“Don’t slander me here. What closed-door cultivation? I think it’s all an excuse. You’re still protecting that scoundrel Gu Xi. Now that you’ve heard that his sect is in trouble, you’ve rushed over.”

…

“Everyone, please listen to my words. The Tiangang Sword Sect harbors evil intentions. The last time, they pretended to break off relations with Gu Xi, but in reality, they were openly cultivating while secretly cultivating. Perhaps the two of them are still in contact with each other. From what I see –”

The Sect Master of the Ancient Sect spoke slowly and rhythmically, but stopped abruptly in the next second.

The black tip of the sword was pointed straight at his neck. Before he could even see clearly how Xie Mingze attacked, he had already arrived in front of him.

The iron sword that was right in front of him flickered with cold intent. A supreme light circulated within it, and the Sword Qi in the surroundings was stirred up. In a trance, it seemed as if it wanted to annihilate his entire being.

If he dared to say another word, he would definitely kill him.

Xie Mingze looked at him calmly and said, “Say it. Why did you stop? Didn’t you say something just now?”

No one had expected Xie Mingze to suddenly make a move, let alone that the Sect Master of the Ancient Sect had no way to fight back.

Perhaps it happened so suddenly that he was not prepared at all, but no matter what, it seemed that Xie Mingze had cultivated the Sword Heart sword principle again after the last battle with Gu Xi. Not only had he benefited from the misfortune, but he had also advanced to another level.

No one dared to breathe loudly. In the end, it was the Sect Master of the Pure Lotus Sect who came out to mediate the situation. “Fellow Daoist Xie, don’t be angry. There must be a misunderstanding.”

Xie Mingze raised his eyebrows. “Misunderstanding? I can’t tell. Since the Sect Master of the Ancient Sect keeps saying that our sword sect harbors evil intentions, is he also going to knock on our door and break our Mountain Defense Formation?”

The other sects and reclusive families were speechless.

What a joke. They were too stupid to attack. The Tiangang Sword Sect had thousands of years of history. Not only did they need to spend a lot of manpower and resources, but the Mountain Defense Formation definitely could not be broken down without a supreme weapon.

Moreover, those sword cultivators had high combat strength. When they were fierce, they would even attack their own people. It would be easy for them to defeat more than one person. They were too stupid to attack the sword sect.

“It was just a joke. Why do you take it seriously, fellow Daoist Xie?”

Xie Mingze glanced at the people of the Ethereal Illusion Mansion from the corner of his eyes. Just now, they were also the ones who caused the most trouble. They even wanted to kill someone. He immediately asked, “Just a joke?”

“Okay, then I’ll make a joke too. As long as I give the order, tens of thousands of disciples of the Tiangang Sword Sect will all go to your mansion to have a look? Let’s see if you think this joke is funny.”

The people from the Ethereal Illusion Mansion could only retreat in defeat. How could they not realize that not only was Xie Mingze’s swordsmanship superb?

Everyone could only look at Xie Mingyu. He coughed a few times and finally said, “That’s enough.”

Xie Mingze saw that the show of force was almost over, so he reluctantly moved his sword away. The Sect Master of the Ancient Sect immediately gasped for breath and glared fiercely at Xie Mingze.

However, when Xie Mingze turned his head, the Sect Master of Ancient Sect quickly averted his gaze.

Xie Mingze sneered, “There are some things that should be said and some things that shouldn’t be said. I think the Sect Master of the Ancient Sect should be able to understand now.”

Even though the Sect Master of the Ancient Sect was gnashing his teeth with hatred, he could not defeat Xie Mingze, so he could only suppress his anger.

“Everyone, we came here with no other intentions. We just feel that if a small sect like the Supreme Purity Sect wanted to hide it, they wouldn’t know at all. After all, even we almost fell for it.”

“You can’t put it that way. As the old saying goes, it’s better to kill a thousand people than let a hundred go. What if there really are spies from the Demon Region or people that Gu Xi bribed? Wouldn’t that be a great threat to us?”

Everyone did not quite understand why the Tiangang Sword Sect would stand up for the Supreme Purity Sect.

One had to know that the Tiangang Sword Sect and the Demon Region were irreconcilable enemies. Xie Mingze had already broken off with Gu Xi at that time. His sudden appearance made everyone confused.

Could it be that Xie Mingze was actually still on Gu Xi’s side in order to cooperate with the outside world?

However, even if the Demon Region had the power to control the sky, they still didn’t have the ability to bribe the Tiangang Sword Sect, let alone brainwash Xie Mingze.

Xie Mingze looked coldly at these self-proclaimed righteous cultivators. “Then what do you want to do? Kill all these people? Use this to force Gu Xi to come out?”

Seeing that the people from Hall of Flowing Light were about to say something.

“Don’t be in a hurry to deny it. I still don’t know what you’re thinking.”

Needless to say, many people really had such thoughts, but it was just not easy to say it out loud. Now that Xie Mingze had said it, everyone was momentarily silent.

It was the people from the Ancient Sect who reacted quickly.

“It’s not that. It’s just that these people are indeed suspicious. For the sake of safety, we have no choice but to be on guard. We can’t risk the entire Righteous Path.”

Many people agreed with him.
