The leader of the Sword Pavilion Sect arrived at the headquarters of the Heavenly Law Sect.
The Heavenly Law Sect was one of the most powerful forces in this space sea.
Two governing gods were in charge of this super force.
Apart from them, there were at least eight other governing gods in the sect, although the sect did not
spread this information willingly to others. They preferred for their true strength to be concealed.
The Sword Pavilion Sect's leader was taken to meet a senior member of the Heavenly Law Sect. As
the leader spoke, he could see that the senior member was taken by surprise at his story.
"What? A sword light got in the way of your army?" the senior member asked, frowning.
The Sword Pavilion Sect was just a subsidiary force of the Heavenly Law Sect, so the major players of
the latter outranked the former's sect leader.
"Yes," the sect leader said.
"In a single stroke, that sword light dealt severe injuries to all the members of our army.
We immediately realized that we stood no chance against the person who had unleashed that sword
light.
That's why I've come to you for help."
The senior member studied the leader of the Sword Pavilion Sect.
"If that's the case, then the owner of the sword light is probably a governing god...
And that's strange. A mere Jade Sun Sect should have no relationship at all with a governing god.
Moreover, almost all the governing gods in this space sea know that the Sword Pavilion Sect is
affiliated with us. Why would any of them make things difficult for you?"
The sect leader nodded.
The senior member of the Heavenly Law Sect thought for a moment, then said, "At any rate, no matter
who was behind all this, his act is a provocation against us.
You must go back and take another army to attack the Jade Sun Sect.
We will send our men to join your ranks secretly.
If the owner of that sword light dares to attack you again, we will not just stand by and watch."
The Sword Pavilion Sect's leader looked pleased.
"Understood.
I will organize an army to attack the Jade Sun Sect as soon as possible,"
he said promptly.
'Now that the Heavenly Law Sect has promised to send people to assist us, there is nothing to worry
about.
After all, in this space sea there is almost no one who can stand up against the power of the Heavenly
Law Sect.
Whoever wielded that sword light is a formidable adversary, but there is no way he can defeat us if the
Heavenly Law Sect is on our side,' the sect leader thought.
He bid farewell to the senior member.
He recalled the sword light attack and his eyes narrowed. 'Since you dared to attack us, you will now
face the consequences. Let's wait and see how you fare against the Heavenly Law Sect,'
the sect leader thought, eager to exact revenge against their unknown enemy.
He headed back to the Sword Pavilion Sect to tell the others of the new plan.
Half a day later, the Sword Pavilion Sect sent out another army.
They marched from their headquarters and headed straight towards the Jade Sun Sect.
This army was much larger and more formidable than the last one they had sent. The soldiers of the
Sword Pavilion Sect deliberately spread out and unleashed their aura, intent on striking terror in the
hearts of their opponents. The waves of energy released ear-splitting noises as they marched,
announcing their fighting intentions to everyone they passed.
Many creatures noticed them and watched to see what they would do.
They whispered about the oncoming army, and soon,
the news reached the headquarters of the Jade Sun Sect.
The major players of the Jade Sun Sect gathered in the meeting hall.
"Sir, it looks like that the Sword Pavilion Sect is planning to launch an all-out attack against us,"
a senior member reported, unable to conceal the worry in his tone.
Donny looked indifferent. "Relax. My master will protect us.
We have nothing to worry about,"
he said, curling his lips.
"This is different from their last attack.
They must have obtained the support of the Heavenly Law Sect.
Otherwise, they wouldn't be marching so boldly towards us,"
the leader of the Jade Sun Sect said with a sigh.
"Everyone knows the Heavenly Law Sect is led by two governing gods.
But we have it from reliable sources that they have other governing gods in their ranks,"
the sect leader added.
Donny turned to their sect leader.
"Dad, don't worry. I have faith in my master.
As long as he is willing to help us, the Heavenly Law Sect can't do anything to us,"
he assured him.
The leader of the Jade Sun Sect was silent for a few moments, contemplating their options.
"Tell our members to pack their things. We must be ready to leave any time. Our priority right now is to
ensure the survival of our sect,"
he announced.
"What? We're going to leave?" several people asked at once.
The command was unexpected, and most of the senior members of the sect wore expressions of
shock and doubt.
"You heard me," the sect leader said curtly.
"None of you have any idea how terrifying the Heavenly Law Sect can be.
Let me put it this way. It is arguably one of the most powerful forces in our space sea.
We are nowhere near their level. If we go to war with them, we will be crushed and wiped out to
extinction.
Our only choice is to retreat.
Any other option is suicide.
So do as I say! Tell everyone right now to be prepared to leave at a moment's notice.
The sooner we can go, the better."
He glared at the council of people around him, daring anyone to challenge him.
"Got it," one of the senior members said briskly, and the others quickly nodded.
Their leader had clearly made up his mind. They had to trust his judgment and obey his orders.
Within minutes, as the word spread, every single person in the headquarters of the Jade Sun Sect
began packing their belongings.
There was only one exception.
Donny stayed in his room and left his things untouched, for he had faith in Austin's strength.
He had seen Austin fight more than once, and he was wholeheartedly convinced of Austin's ability to
beat anyone in a fight.
He firmly believed that Austin was the strongest cultivator in this space sea.
It didn't matter how many governing gods strengthened the forces of the Heavenly Law Sect. They had
no hope of laying a finger on Austin if he decided to defeat them.
Donny then used his spiritual sense to inform Austin of the army coming to attack the Jade Sun Sect.
"Oh?" Austin said musingly.
"So you say that the Heavenly Law Sect is one of the most feared and powerful forces in this space
sea?"
He smiled to himself.
"I wonder how much the people in this force know about this space sea.
Fine. I'll go and meet the people of the Heavenly Law Sect,"
Austin said, confident of his ability to crush them.
"Don't worry,"
Austin said to Donny through his spiritual sense.
"I will come. The Jade Sun Sect will be fine."
"Yes, thanks!" Donny replied with excitement.
'Master has agreed to help!'
he thought with relief, feeling a rush of anticipation as he thought of Austin fighting the Heavenly Law
Sect.
Meanwhile, the army of the Sword Pavilion Sect continued to march in the chaotic void, headed
inexorably towards the Jade Sun Sect.
Countless creatures gathered in the distance, their eyes fixed on the advancing army.
With the help of his spiritual sense, Austin sensed the location of the troops from the Sword Pavilion
Sect. He stretched out his hand in their direction. Coolly, he launched a sword light attack.
The sword light surged through the void,
rushing at the members of the Sword Pavilion Sect.
"Look!
There is a sword light over there!" a senior member shouted,
pointing at the sword light flashing in the chaotic void.
Immediately, the other senior members of the Sword Pavilion Sect turned to look.
A plain sword light was suspended in front of the army.
At the moment, it wasn't releasing any energy.
However, the expressions of the major players of the Sword Pavilion Sect turned grim as they sensed
it.
They knew that this sword light was from the same person who had so grievously injured their army
last time.
The leader of the Sword Pavilion Sect stepped forward and spoke.
"Why are you fighting against us?" he asked in a loud voice. "You have interfered with us before. Are
you going to interfere again?"
A cold voice issued from the sword light.
"I've told you to leave the Jade Sun Sect alone. Unfortunately, it looks like you refuse to listen to me."
"Sir, our quarrel is not with you," the sect leader answered stiffly.
"Please stay out of this. This is between us and the Jade Sun Sect.
Do not try to make things difficult for us."
"What if I want to make things difficult for you?"
the voice said calmly.
"We have the support of the Heavenly Law Sect.
They have openly declared their support for us in our fight against the Jade Sun Sect.
You must know how powerful their sect is, so reconsider!"
the leader of the Sword Pavilion Sect said angrily, a threatening expression on his face.
