The Dragon God of Destruction
The Cunning Fifth Elder
Tianyu Star, Sword Sect
The words of the Fifth Elder left many people speechless. In retrospect, what the Fifth Elder said was indeed true. Students who like to kill other fellow disciples are indeed very dangerous.
The students and the invited guests discussed with each other. This naturally made the Fifth Elder satisfied inwardly. If Jie Yan had a bad reputation, if it happened in a long enough time, he could definitely take the chance to clean it up. When that happened, there would be no one to blame him for killing Jie Yan who was said to be fond of killing fellow disciples.
“Excuse me, Fifth Elder. isn't this competition already explained the rules. It should have been better from the beginning that Qing Cao had given up. As a cultivator as well as a disciple of the Fifth Elder, he should have self-awareness regarding his strength.”
“Now, because of his incompetence, he kept trying to fight me when it was clear in a few minutes fight against me, he had absolutely no advantage. Why was it that at that moment he did not give up but instead attacked using a forbidden technique as if he was about to kill me? I was just defending myself, as someone with higher strength, it would be strange if I relented to him.” Jie Yan said in a strange tone and looked towards the Fifth Elder as if looking at an idiot.
The Fifth Elder's face darkened when he heard what Jie Yan said. He instantly realized that Jie Yan's words were referring to himself being incompetent in teaching a disciple.
“You..” The Fifth Elder wanted to suppress Jie Yan once more but Jie Yan spoke first.
“In addition, as an Elder you should know that your students are incapable of resisting me. But why not stop it? Why is it that after your student died you came to me? This is so weird. Did you do that on purpose?” Jie Yan asked in a surprised tone.
The originally purple face of the Fifth Elder turned green in an instant. If it stopped the previous fight, he naturally had the ability in a short period of time. And as an Elder, he could stop the fight if his disciple was unable to but the premise was that his disciple was declared defeated.
Jie Yan's voice although not strong can still be heard because everything there is a cultivator. They all stared towards the Fifth Elder with doubtful gazes as everything Jie Yan said was indeed reality.
“I am confident in my students' abilities. But as a fellow disciple of the Sword Sect, you should have self-awareness and not kill him! Aside from that, don't forget that you also killed a few disciples earlier so you were punished!” The Fifth Elder instantly denied all of Jie Yan's accusations with simple words.
“I do have self-awareness. I didn't know he was so weak that he would die and not be able to survive my attack. All I know, he is your disciple, Fifth Elder. He must be strong, even the other disciples thought so as well. Who knew he was so vulnerable? Did I do that wrong?” Jie Yan asked in a surprised tone.
The Fifth Elder's face grew greener because of all Jie Yan's words. Everyone who was there also agreed with Jie Yan's thoughts. The other disciples also knew that Qing Cao was very strong, but who would have thought that he was so vulnerable before Jie Yan?
“Fifth Chief, what Jie Yan said was true. Your disciple should know that he is no match for Jie Yan but he insists on continuing to fight back. After all, the competition rules this time are different from the past competition!” said the Law Enforcement Hall Elder. His tone was a little bit bitter as he strongly disapproved of the rule but he could do nothing because it was an order from the Main Sword Sect.
Naturally the death of a disciple like Qing Cao was a great loss to the Sword Sect. How many disciples were able to compete with Qing Cao? That's not much. It proved that Qing Cao was indeed one of the best talents.
“Fifth Chief, come back!” qing Long said knowing that if this continued, the Sword Sect would lose face in front of the invited guests.
“Master Sect, you will regret this later!” said the Fifth Elder and went straight away from that place.
Qing Long simply remained silent and returned to his seat after gesturing to the First Elder.
For the Law Enforcement Hall Elder, he wanted to speak but not so then after that he left as well. While Jie Yan, he returned with a small smile on his face. He forgot something, which was handing over Qing An's corpse. But it will be done later on.
The First Elder, who plays the jury, orders someone to repair the arena and retrieve Qing Cao's body.
The match was postponed within a few minutes. However, this time there had been a lot of discussion among the audience, especially for the mid-level power leader.
This made the upper echelons of the Sword Sect a little helpless. They did not expect something like this to happen. They could not blame Jie Yan and the Fifth Elder because both of them were indeed not wrong even though from a certain point of view both of them remained wrong.
As for Qing Mu, he looked at Jie Yan with enormous hostility. But he no longer dared to provoke Jie Yan directly because he knew that he would die once he fought with Jie Yan.
Not until five minutes later, as the arena had been fixed, the First Elder who was in the air spoke, “Sorry because the arena repairs took time. Competition will proceed to next game.”
“Participant Yun Che and participant Qing Mu are expected to come to the arena.”
After which, even the prepared Yun Che walked slowly towards the arena, not far behind him, Qing Mu followed.
After the two of them were in the middle of the arena face to face, the First Elder spoke as before.
“Are you guys ready?”
“Ya.”
“The third match, Yun Che against Qing Mu begins!” Shouted the First Elder.
After those words fell, Yun Che and Qing Mu immediately attacked.
Yun Che's speed looked on par with Qing Mu despite his lower cultivation. Moreover, when the two clashed within two minutes, the spectators instantly knew that Yun Che's sword intent was not simple at all.
Trang! Trang! Trang!
Both of them continued to swing their swords continuously without stopping. Small sparks were clearly visible everywhere as the two swords clashed against each other every time.
The upper echelons of the Sword Sect when staring at it had sparkling eyes. Even for Jie Yan, Qing Lan Yu and Huoyun Ying'er who were watching squinted their eyes at the match.
Trang!
Busssh!
Yun Che and Qing Mu leaped backwards together. In that short three-minute exchange, Qing Mu looked a little exhausted but Yun Che still looked mediocre.
“What the fuck is with this boy? Why does his sword intent feel weak but when it collides with my sword intent it will be instantly suppressed?” Inner Qing Mu gnashed his teeth firmly.
“It seems that this is all you have, if so it's time you lose!” yun Che said as he made the horses one foot forward one back, both of them in a slight bend and he held the Eternal Cloud Sword next to a hand with a slightly low blade.
Qing Mu's teeth were itchy because it was like he was being underestimated. However, when a golden aura seeped from Yun Che's body, everything there was shocked.
Even for Qing Long, the Law Enforcement Hall Elder even Emperor Shi instantly stood on the spot.
With an excited face, Qing Long who knew the level of Yun Che's sword intent, immediately spoke, “Switch Intent, Sword Eye!”
