King of Creation
Chapter 216: Chapter 213: Diverting Trouble East
"Bu Changtian of the Phantom Divine Sect is here, Cha Hai, you have ten breaths to come out!" A thunderous voice echoed over the skies of Gu Xuan Sect!
The disciples walking within the Gu Xuan Sect were startled by this scene.
Ten!
Nine!
Two!
One!
Bu Changtian counted rapidly, and in a blink, ten breaths had passed.
Whoosh!
The moment the word ’one’ was spoken, Bu Changtian’s figure sank, and he threw a level punch, sending a Fist Gang flying toward one of the mountain peaks of Gu Xuan Sect like a meteor.
That mountain peak, densely packed with disciples of Gu Xuan Sect, would be shattered to pieces by the Fist Gang’s blow, burying hundreds of ordinary disciples under the rubble!
"How dare you!"
Four or five figures swiftly shot out from various peaks of Gu Xuan Sect, with one of them pointing a finger that shattered the Fist Gang. The other three, with Spiritual Power surging around them, charged toward the three figures hovering in the sky above Gu Xuan Sect!
Swipe! Whoosh! Slice!
Fist Gangs, Palm Shadows, Sword Gangs, and Sword Energy instantly mixed into chaos.
Suddenly, a piercing screech of an eagle resounded abruptly, and a huge claw shadow emerged from the sky, pressing down fiercely, instantly shattering the interwoven Sword Qi and Sword Gangs.
The three figures who had just soared from Gu Xuan Sect were struck down, bleeding midair.
"Thousand Illusion Eagle King, are you declaring war?"
An angry voice, accompanied by a bronze radiance, shot up into the sky, fiercely colliding with the huge eagle claw above, instantly dispersing it into fragments.
"If it’s war you want, I’m not afraid of you, Gu Yanchuan, come on, I’ll take you on for a couple of moves," a figure flashed in the sky, and his night owl-like voice made people’s hearts tremble.
The expected great battle did not occur.
Beams of light rose from within Gu Xuan Sect and lined up beside Gu Yanchuan, the Sect Leader of Gu Xuan Sect, the atmosphere suddenly becoming extremely grave.
The previously arrogant Bu Changtian suddenly retreated several miles, moving back to where several elders who had come with him stood.
Although Bu Changtian was renowned as the number one expert among the younger generation in the Black Dragon Domain, he was just the best among the young generation. Faced with the full force of Sect Elders from Gu Xuan Sect, it would be false to say he wasn’t afraid.
"Thousand Illusion Eagle King, if you can’t give me a satisfactory explanation today for this matter, don’t think about leaving here alive!"
Gu Yanchuan, the Sect Leader of Gu Xuan Sect, snorted angrily. As a vicious Evil Qi dispersed, six more beams of light shot up from Gu Xuan Sect, subtly surrounding the few uninvited guests of the Phantom Divine Sect.
"An explanation? You killed my only inheritor and haven’t given me an explanation; instead, you’re demanding one from me? Besides, my title as the Thousand Illusion Eagle King isn’t just for show. If I want to leave, who among you can really stop me?"
The already tense atmosphere became rather strange upon the words of the Thousand Illusion Eagle King.
"Thousand Illusion Eagle King, which eye of yours saw us kill your disciple Luo Jingtian?" Elder Huo from Gu Xuan Sect said angrily.
"Moreover, entering the Battlefield of Demon Souls means life and death are left to fate; if he’s dead, he’s dead. Who ever heard of charging into someone’s home to seek vengeance for a disciple’s death? How many of our disciples from Gu Xuan Sect were killed by your sect in the Battlefield of Demon Souls?"
"I don’t care how many others have died! But Luo Jingtian, my only heir in this lifetime, is dead, and I have to intervene. My disciple’s life was extremely precious!
He was the disciple I spent decades searching for and training; I’d like to see who had the guts to kill my disciple!" he roared angrily, a surge of Evil Qi blasting from the Thousand Illusion Eagle King, shooting straight up to the heavens.
Hearing this, Elder Huo from Gu Xuan Sect gave a bitter smile, having fully experienced this guy’s unreasonableness. But now, during a time when Gu Xuan Sect was recovering, it wasn’t worth a fiery fight over this.
"Hmph, the arrogance of the Eagle King is just the same as ever! But it truly wasn’t us who killed your disciple, Luo Jingtian...."
"Nonsense, if it wasn’t you, then who else could it be?"
Elder Huo was in the midst of a bitter smile trying to defend himself when Bu Changtian rudely interrupted Elder Huo’s defense.
"Among the Five Countries, only a few could count as a match for Junior Brother Luo. Luv Zixiong from Sword Origin Sect might barely withstand one and a half moves from Junior Brother Luo.
Southern Barbarian Da Hai could pose a threat to Junior Brother Luo. Besides these two, only your Human Bear Cha Hai from Gu Xuan Sect would be qualified to harm Junior Brother Luo!
Now that both Da Hai and Luv Zixiong have been killed, only Human Bear Cha Hai is alive. Who else could it be if not him?"
"Also, although my brother Bu Changxuan had average cultivation, he had many life-saving measures. There are very few in the Five Countries who could threaten him.
Furthermore, among the twelve disciples of my Phantom Divine Sect, ten have died tragically! Apart from your Gu Xuan Sect, apart from Human Bear Cha Hai, who else has this capability?
If not you, then who?"
Hearing this, all the Sect Elders of Gu Xuan Sect were taken aback.
What kind of twisted logic is this?
Your disciples die, and because mine didn’t, they were killed by my sect?
Does that make any sense?
"Eagle King, it’s indeed unusual for the Phantom Divine Sect to lose ten men, but it most definitely wasn’t due to our Gu Xuan Sect! Hmph, if it were the deed of our disciples, we would have celebrated it loudly. Did you expect us to wait for you to come knocking?"
It must be said, the power of the Phantom Divine Sect is truly terrifying.
Even though they had pushed right up to the doorstep of Gu Xuan Sect, Gu Xuan Sect still held back somewhat.
You see, five years ago, the War Soul Blood Flag was in the hands of the Phantom Divine Sect.
Over these five years, the Phantom Divine Empire launched countless large and small wars against Gu’an Kingdom. Gu’an Kingdom struggled to survive these five years.
That’s also why Gu Xuan Sect wasn’t too aggressive at this moment.
Martial artists who had suffered heavy losses in Gu Xuan Sect needed rest, and it would take some time to recuperate to be able to barely stand against the huge Phantom Divine Empire!
"Less nonsense, if it wasn’t you, then who else could it be? Quickly let Cha Hai meet his death!"
"Eagle King, the Demon Soul Army is terrifyingly powerful; maybe Luo Jingtian died at the hands of the Demon Soul Legion?"
"Impossible!"
"If Luo Jingtian were so foolish, how could he have become my disciple? Hand over the murderer if you know what’s good for you, or else!" barked the Thousand Illusion Eagle King, his killing intent bursting forth.
"Heu Laoying, our Gu Xuan Sect has fought with you for so many years, when have we ever handed over a disciple of our sect? Come, come, come, today, we shall have a proper fight!"
"Form the array!"
With a shout, a layer of luminescent blue light, like a canopy, suddenly rose from the depths of Gu Xuan Sect’s Mountain Gate, instantly securing the entire gate tightly.
The several elders of Gu Xuan Sect surrounding the area erupted with spiritual power, their killing Qi skyrocketing!
It seemed the sect leader had but to give the order, and they would disregard all consequences to fight.
"Hehehe.... don’t be hasty.... see who these few are?"
The Thousand Illusion Eagle King let out a sinister laugh, waving his hand, and a dark cloud in the sky suddenly dispersed, revealing a few disciples dressed in Gu Xuan Sect’s attire.
"Liu Meng, Wang Fengchun, so... so they had disappeared because you captured them!" exclaimed Elder Huo in shock.
The Gu Xuan Sect had six disciples whose whereabouts had been suspicious the past two days, not taken seriously before, but it turned out they had been captured by the Phantom Divine Sect.
The worst part was that among these six disciples, three were True Disciples of the Gu Xuan Sect!
"Hmph, the Phantom Divine Sect, as shameless as ever!" Gu Yanchuan cursed loudly.
"Thanks for the compliment!"
"Every ten breaths, if Human Bear Cha Hai does not come out, I will kill one!"
"You dare!"
Gu Xuan Sect Leader Gu Yanchuan made a move as if to attack!
"Hmph, what wouldn’t I dare to do? Try and see if you’re faster, or if I am!"
At this, the elders of the Gu Xuan Sect were thoroughly shocked.
Not out of fear, but because they could not afford the loss!
If these three True Disciples were killed, their Gu Xuan Sect would suffer severe damage to their vital force!
"Ten!"
"Nine!"
"Five!"
"Four!"
"Hmph, stop counting, I’m here! Kill or slaughter, I, Cha Hai, will take it, but release those fellow disciples first!"
The moment he spoke, the imposing figure of Cha Hai shot into the sky like a cannonball, the emptiness of his left arm especially striking!
"Good lad, give me back my disciple’s life!"
With a fierce laugh, an eagle’s claw suddenly formed out of thin air and lunged at Cha Hai; Gu Xuan Sect Leader Gu Yanchuan exploded forward again, blocking this talon!
"Eagle King, I’d indeed love to kill your disciple to make a name for myself, but I don’t have the ability! Look, my left arm is even disabled, how could I kill your disciple?"
Despite Human Bear Cha Hai’s immense stature, his mind was incredibly meticulous.
From the moment the Phantom Divine Sect’s people appeared, Cha Hai had been calculating.
By now, Cha Hai had confirmed that today’s matter was unlikely to end well!
If it could have ended well, the Phantom Divine Sect’s people would not have shamelessly attacked holding hostages.
If it could not end well, and yet Cha Hai still wanted to save his own life, there was only one way left—divert the disaster elsewhere!
Of course, it wasn’t exactly diverting disaster.
Human Bear Cha Hai also wanted to know who exactly had killed Luo Jingtian, the Six-Fingered Eagle Demon, Southern Barbarian Spiritist Da Hai, and the Water and Fire Golden Ape at the Battlefield of Demon Souls!
Never had there been as many martial artists lost at any Five Countries Conference!
Nearly a third of them!
"Hmm? Your left arm?"
Indeed, the sight of Human Bear Cha Hai’s arm, cleanly severed at the elbow, captured the attention of everyone from the Phantom Divine Sect.
"If not you, who then killed him?"
Bu Changtian’s eyebrows furrowed.
There had indeed been doubts about this whole affair.
Human Bear Cha Hai was a body cultivation practitioner; it was possible for him to injure someone, but killing Luo Jingtian was even more unlikely!
Moreover, according to disciples, Bu Changxuan and Maa Zhi had been slain before they even reached the Demon Soul Hall, hardly a deed likely committed by Human Bear Cha Hai.
However, aside from Human Bear Cha Hai, they had no other targets, thus they could only resort to force!
"Don’t know!"
Human Bear Cha Hai’s reply was straightforward!
"Humph, you don’t know, then it must be you!" Bu Changtian laughed coldly.
"Although I don’t know who killed Luo Jingtian, I do know who killed the Southern Barbarian Spiritist Da Hai and the Water and Fire Golden Ape!
And this left arm of mine and the injury on my chest were gifts from the same person! Moreover, I witnessed with my own eyes at least six Phantom Divine Sect disciples being slain by that person at the Commander Hall of the Demon Soul Battlefield!
Most importantly, that person is still very much alive!" Human Bear Cha Hai said.
Bu Changtian and the Thousand Illusion Eagle King’s faces changed at the same time, as a person capable of killing Southern Barbarian Spiritist Da Hai and the Water and Fire Golden Ape definitely had the ability to kill Luo Jingtian, the Six-Fingered Eagle Demon!
Furthermore, this person had killed six Phantom Divine Sect disciples!
"Speak, who is it?" demanded the Thousand Illusion Eagle King and Bu Changtian, radiating evil Qi!
