Chapter 272 - Chapter272

In mid-air, in four directions, four people stand arrogantly. All of them are consummate powerhouses. Except for Long Xiaotian taking a step forward, Wuxin and the other two did not move. However, they remained vigilant and invisibly blocked all of Zhou Peng's escape routes. Regarding Shen Yan's death and the astonishing sword momentum released by Zhou Peng, the four of them still had lingering fears. That kind of power was such that none of them could escape even if they were alone. They were somewhat apprehensive about Zhou Peng. They only blocked Zhou Peng's escape routes but did not rush up to snatch. Regarding Shen Yan's death, everyone in the entire sect clearly saw that Zhou Peng was forced into a corner. Long Xiaotian's words were just an excuse for his greed. Long Xiaotian was greedy. Facing the divine weapon that surpassed a sacred artifact, the three grand elders also had greed. It was just that the three of them hid it a bit deeper than Long Xiaotian. Now that Long Xiaotian had torn off his mask, the three grand elders did not reprimand. Instead, they secretly rejoiced in their hearts. "Zhou Peng, how dare you insult the current sect leader?" Wunian's tone was flat, but there was a powerful consummate pressure in his voice, directly pressing into Zhou Peng's sea of consciousness to test. Wunian's cultivation had reached the peak of the consummate realm, and his mental pressure was extremely powerful. The pressure exploded in the sea of spiritual consciousness. Zhou Peng frowned tightly and restrained it with all his might. He was in extreme pain but did not show any expression. With a divine weapon in his hand, the four people were apprehensive and would not attack rashly. If he showed even a hint of pain, he might be noticed by them. "Don't the three grand elders see it?" "Do you have your eyes on your butts?" "You clearly know that Shen Yan was in the wrong first, but you let it go unchecked. If I didn't have a divine weapon in my hand, I would have died in front of you long ago. When my life was hanging by a thread, did any of you have even half a thought of saving me?" "For nearly a hundred years, Shen Yan has used her disciples to refine artifacts. In these years, disciples of Lieyang Palace have continuously disappeared because they have become the artifact souls of her sword. If I hadn't escaped by chance, I would have long become the artifact soul in her sword. As the three grand elders and the current sect leader of Qianji Sect, have you ever cared even once?" "No!" "You only care about your own cultivation. When have you cared about the lives and deaths of others?" "Long Xiaotian, are you worthy of being the sect leader of Qianji Sect? Colluding with the Wanmo Sect and harming the previous sect leader, Zang Tianji. You are worse than pigs and dogs. What qualifications do you have to be the sect leader of Qianji Sect?" "And you three old fossils who have lived for thousands of years have lived in vain. You are all blind. How could you support Long Xiaotian as the sect leader? Either your heads were squeezed by a door or kicked by a donkey. You are extremely stupid." Zhou Peng was proud and fearless. Every word was forceful and every sentence was filled with indignation. Although his voice was not loud, it was spread out using the power of breaking through the air. All the inner and outer disciples of Qianji Sect could hear it extremely clearly. "How presumptuous!!!" Long Xiaotian's face turned red and then purple. Rage surged out. At the same time, his heart pounded violently. He stared at Zhou Peng with killing intent soaring. No one knew about his collusion with the Wanmo Sect. How did Zhou Peng find out? When Zang Tianji died, Zhou Peng was not in Qianji Sect. Why did he know about it? In an instant, his mind was in a mess like a tangled ball, and his killing intent was fully exposed. "Angry?" "Hit a sore spot?" "Long Xiaotian, since you became the sect leader, what have you done for the sect?" "No!" "Just you are worthy of being the sect leader of Qianji Sect?" Zhou Peng was extremely aggressive and did not back down even half a step. He now only took Long Xiaotian as a breakthrough point. He had to vent the pain inside his body through his voice. Wunian's mental pressure almost made him collapse. When he jumped out of the cauldron, he was already extremely exhausted. Then, after using the 'Earth-Shattering Sword' and consuming a great deal of essence energy, he was as if completely drained. If it weren't for the excitement of the explosion that kept him going, he would probably have fainted by now. "Zhou Peng, the sect leader's mistakes are not for you, a mere honorary elder, to judge..." Wuxin followed up with a faint sentence. Before he finished speaking, Zhou Peng coldly smiled and said, "It's true that it's not for me to judge. Long Xiaotian is the sect leader. He was supported by you. Clearly knowing that he did wrong, you didn't reprimand him but let it go unchecked. You only cared about your own cultivation and ignored worldly affairs. The three grand elders of Qianji Sect are to blame for Qianji Sect reaching this point." "You..." Wu Kuang and Wunian shouted at the same time. They were so angry that they couldn't even speak. Their anger burned, and the surging true energy in their bodies raged out. Suddenly, the mid-air was filled with a murderous aura. "You can't be presumptuous in Qianji Sect." Wuxin shouted angrily. Rage arose in his heart. His eyebrows trembled. Then he continued, "Hand over the divine weapon quickly." "Haha..." "Finally said it. Greedy grand elders." "The divine weapon is obtained by those with destiny. You have cultivated for thousands of years. Don't you know this?" "Snatching the divine weapon? Shen Yan is the end result. Do you want to follow in her footsteps?" Zhou Peng was extremely arrogant. Every word was like a pearl. The expressions of the four people changed at the same time. Long Xiaotian was even more furious. He couldn't endure it anymore. His long robe swelled and rustled. He clenched his fists and pointed at Zhou Peng and said, "Die!" Immediately, a powerful gust of wind arose. Long Xiaotian roared to the sky and unleashed all the power of the consummate realm. Looking at Zhou Peng, he couldn't endure it for a moment. He couldn't allow anyone who knew his secret of colluding with the Wanmo Sect to still live in this world. Whether Zhou Peng knew by accident or if he had grasped something, he had to kill him. Long Xiaotian's figure suddenly disappeared and he punched out violently. The fist wind was like a thunderbolt. There was a loud explosion in the air. The true energy was like a mountain pressing down. "Humph!" "You're looking for death!" Zhou Peng retreated several hundred feet. His right hand became a claw. He shouted angrily, "Overlord Sword, come out..." "Boom!!!" Suddenly, under Zhou Peng's right hand, an array diagram appeared. The array diagram shone with golden light, extremely dazzling. A black long sword slowly rose. "Sword spirit!!!" "Actually summoned Shen Yan's sword spirit." "What on earth did Zhou Peng do?" "How is it possible? Impossible..." Everyone was extremely shocked and completely didn't understand what was going on. The sword spirit would disappear with the death of its master and could not be taken over by another person at all. Even if everything Shen Yan mastered was stripped away, it was impossible for the sword spirit to recognize a new master. Everyone was stunned. No one could understand at all. However, Zhou Peng summoning the sword spirit shocked everyone in the entire sect. Long Xiaotian's eyes widened in surprise and he quickly retreated. "Escape?" Zhou Peng gave a sinister sneer. "Escape back to your mother's womb..." "Destroy!" As soon as the Overlord Sword appeared, its sharpness flourished. Driven by Zhou Peng's will, it erupted with even greater power. Seeing Long Xiaotian fleeing, it pursued with unstoppable force. Long Xiaotian's expression darkened. The true energy in his body was released even more powerfully. Seeing that the Overlord Sword was about to catch up, his body suddenly stopped. In the void, he pushed hard with his back foot, stirring up a burst of energy. The powerful energy was infused into his fists and he punched out. "Boom boom boom..." With a loud noise, the two forces collided. They collided and continuously pressed against each other. Finally, they soared up and scattered the clouds for thousands of miles. Extremely overbearing. "Not dead?" Zhou Peng's expression changed. His left hand grabbed forcefully. He roared, "Blood Sword, come out..." Another sword spirit was summoned by Zhou Peng. Looking at the glittering Long Xiaotian, Zhou Peng gave a sinister smile. In his heart, there was only one word, kill!
