Chapter 168 - Bring Me To Your Patriarch
Southern Land, Stargate Sect.
Despite being the former ruler of this area, only broken walls and ruins remained of the Stargate Sect at this moment. All the buildings were exceptionally dilapidated, and the Central Great Hall had been smashed into pieces by a meteorite. It was extremely tragic.
In addition, because Mu Chen was afraid that the Xuanyi Mountain Sect would take revenge on him, he had chosen to disband the Stargate Sect. Now, not a single person could be seen in the Stargate Sect, with weeds and plants growing everywhere. It no longer looked as glorious as before.
As the saying went, monkeys would scatter when the tree fell. With the Xuanyi Mountain Sect's rise in status, even the Six Great Clans did not dare to interfere in this area, so who would dare to jump out and court death?
"Why did you bring me here?"
Long Zhen swept his eyes over and was slightly at a loss.
Weren't we supposed to help some clan expel fiend beasts?
Could it be that the clan had already been destroyed by the fiend beasts and had become like this?
"Nothing. I just suddenly felt like it and wanted to come here to take a look."
Qin Jue took a sip of wine and said indifferently.
To be honest, if he hadn't casually swatted away a meteorite at that time, Qin Jue probably wouldn't have thought of using the meteorite to attack the enemy.
But… where was the meteorite?
Qin Jue flew up and landed in the middle of the main hall of the Stargate Sect. He discovered that for some reason, the meteorite had been shattered.
Who was so bored to shatter the meteorite?
Strictly speaking, before this, Qin Jue had never been to the Stargate Sect. The first meteorite attack was purely an accident. The second time, he directly locked onto the Stargate Sect Master, Song Yun, from the Xuanyi Mountain Sect and killed him.
If it weren't for the Wei Clan insisting on joining the battle later, Qin Jue might not have attacked again.
If that was the case, the Wei Clan wouldn't have been destroyed. If the Wei Clan hadn't been destroyed, Mu Chen wouldn't have been so frightened to disband the Stargate Sect and would not have fled overnight.
However, even if the Stargate Sect was still around, they would still have to submit to the Xuanyi Mountain Sect. With two Supreme Stage experts holding down the fort in Xuanyi Mountain Sect, the Stargate Sect was simply not worth mentioning.
"Alright, let's go."
Qin Jue turned around.
Not far from the Stargate Sect was a small city. What Qin Jue had been tasked to do this time was to help that small city expel fiend beasts.
As for the specific details, he would have to wait until he arrived to find out.
"I didn't expect that I, the dignified Immortal Sacred Master, would actually have to help a small faction in a remote area expel fiend beasts."
Long Zhen sighed as he followed Qin Jue.
If the Sacred Clans and Sacred Lands of the Central Continent learned of this, they would probably be shocked to the core.
In fact, Long Zhen had refused at first, but since Qin Jue had decided to come, Long Zhen couldn't possibly stay in the Xuanyi Mountain Sect alone, right?
In the end, he could only agree.
"Didn't you say you wanted to take a walk?"
Qin Jue said righteously, "I'm taking you out for a walk."
Long Zhen :"…"
How kind of you!
…
Not long after, the two of them arrived outside the small city. This city's size was about the same as Dark Moon City, but its strength was far inferior.
Although Dark Moon City already was only a city at the edge of the Central Continent, the City Lord was still a Heaven Stage expert.
On the other hand, the strongest person in this city would at most be an Earth Stage expert.
The two of them entered the city and looked around. Just as they were about to spread out their spirit senses to search for the clan mentioned in the envelope, a muffled sound suddenly came from the side. Immediately after, a figure flew past the two of them.
Thump!
A youth fell heavily to the ground, spitting out blood. His body quickly curled up, his face filled with pain. He was clearly injured badly.
"Stinking brat, how dare you block my path. You're truly courting death."
The person who spoke was a burly man with a fierce face. Despite that the youth was already lying on the ground, he was still unwilling to let him off and rushed up and beat him up again.
The surrounding passers-by immediately dispersed. They were all expressionless, as if they were already used to such scenes.
"Sorry, I didn't mean to…"
The young man covered his head and said weakly.
"F*ck! How dare you talk back!"
The burly man kicked even more fiercely and was about to punch again when his arm was suddenly grabbed by something and he was instantly unable to move.
"Enough."
Long Zhen said calmly.
As a main character who had been forced to break off his engagement and was humiliated, he would definitely not turn a blind eye to such matters.
"Who, who are you? How dare you stop me…"
Before he could finish his sentence, the burly man was sent flying backwards and hit the wall. Countless cracks appeared on his back.
"Pfft!"
The burly man spat out a mouthful of blood and fell like a rag doll. Fortunately, Long Zhen did not attack seriously. Otherwise, not to mention the burly man, even the entire city would be destroyed.
"You, you…"
The burly man's expression was sinister. He pointed at Long Zhen for a long time and said fiercely, "Just you wait. You're dead meat!"
After saying this, the burly man staggered up and ran into the distance.
If the burly man knew that the person who hit him was the publicly acknowledged strongest person in the current Spirit Central World, he would probably be able to brag about this fight for his entire life.
"Are you okay?"
Long Zhen helped the youth up and the spirit energy in his palm turned into a warm current that fused into the other party's body, not caring about the burly man's threat at all.
What a joke. He was the Immortal Sacred Master, a super expert at the fourth realm of the Great Void Stage. How could he be frightened by a Yellow Stage cultivator?
"I-I'm fine."
The youth timidly raised his head and quickly noticed that his injuries stopped hurting.
"What happened?"
"It's good that you're fine."
Long Zhen smiled and let go.
"You, you should run."
After hesitating for a moment, the youth said nervously.
"Why?"
Long Zhen was stunned.
"That person just now was a guard of the Yu Clan. He will definitely come to take revenge on you." At this point, the youth revealed a fearful expression.
"Yu Clan?"
Long Zhen was stunned and looked at Qin Jue.
Hearing this, Qin Jue's face also sank because the Yu Clan was the clan that had written to the Xuanyi Mountain Sect for help.
"It's said that they have a Heaven Stage expert. No, that's not right. They're backed by a Supreme Stage expert. If we don't run now, it'll be too late."
The young man continued.
Supreme Stage?
It was naturally impossible for the Yu Clan to have a Supreme Stage expert.
The corner of Qin Jue's eyes twitched slightly. It seemed that the Yu Clan was using the name of Xuanyi Mountain Sect to intimidate others.
"Don't be afraid. It doesn't matter who they're backed by."
Long Zhen consoled.
"But…" The youth looked anxious. He wanted to say something else, but the burly man who had just escaped had already rushed over with a group of cultivators.
"Captain, it's him!"
The person known as the captain was a middle-aged man. When he saw Long Zhen, he frowned slightly. "You must be from another city."
"That's right."
"Then do you know the consequences of offending the Yu Clan?"
The middle-aged man's eyes narrowed as they flickered with a dangerous light.
"I didn't know that."
"…"
"Hmph, beat him until he can't move."
The middle-aged man waved his hand and ordered.
Hearing this, Long Zhen had a strange expression. Beat him until he couldn't move?
Even if the seven Sacred Masters joined forces, they wouldn't dare to say such a thing, right?
"Yes!"
The cultivators who had come with the middle-aged man immediately drew their weapons and surrounded Long Zhen.
At this moment, Qin Jue suddenly said, "Bring me to your patriarch."
"Who are you?"
The middle-aged man was stunned for a moment before he noticed Qin Jue beside him.
Qin Jue didn't answer the middle-aged man but flicked his finger.
Clap, clap, clap.
All the cultivators who were originally surrounding Long Zhen immediately collapsed as if they had suffered a heavy blow.
"Bring me to your patriarch."
