Chapter 220: The Great Liang Dynastys Attitude

Chapter 220: The Great Liang Dynasty's Attitude

Daoist Master Ironcloud did not speak, he just watched Yun Jianyue in silence.

In reality, he should have anticipated this outcome long ago. The Infatuation Daoist Temple was aware of this matter and had sent Yun Jianyue to investigate. It was not really to help him, it was just to uncover those secrets sooner and see if there could be any benefits. As for helping him, how could it be something that the Infatuation Daoist Temple wanted to do?

Could the Infatuation Daoist Temple not know about the Sublime Bright Sect's ambitions?

"This matter was not solely my decision. My master, Daoist Master Green Bamboo, did it first, I was simply following his lead. Moreover, it's merely some ordinary youths who died, what have I done wrong?"

Daoist Master Ironcloud looked at the Warden, attempting to persuade this person.

What the Infatuation Daoist Temple wanted was very simple. He also knew that as long as he offered sufficient things, he could change many things. Hence, he only needed to persuade Lord Warden.

He represented the Great Liang Dynasty.

The Warden remained silent. He just turned his gaze to Chen Chao and asked, "It seems you almost died, didn't you?"

Chen Chao replied, "I didn't expect you to be so slow, Sir. Didn't we agree on everything?"

From the last conversation before leaving the Divine Capital, all the plans were formulated by him and Lord Warden. Chen Chao had finalized all the details. However, in the beginning, Chen Chao refused to take the risk by going up the mountain. But later on, it was because of his trust in the Warden that things had turned out this way. If the Warden had been even a step slower, he would have died here. Thinking about this, Chen Chao felt some lingering fear too.

The Warden smiled and said, "I wasn't too slow. Things tend to have some deviations, but the outcome is still good. Do you think I can bear to let you die?"

Chen Chao nodded silently.

The Warden shrugged it off and changed the subject, saying, "This guy has no shame. He's starting to haggle. I'm good at killing people but not so good at bargaining. How about you give it a try?"

Chen Chao thought for a moment and then nodded.

Hence, he took a step forward.

Daoist Master Ironcloud looked at the young man before him, his eyes filled with hatred.

He had also figured it out. The one responsible for turning the situation on the Sublime Bright Mountain into what it was now, was him.

Chen Chao looked at him and said, "You've killed countless fellow disciples and drove the senior brother who treated you the best to his death. Then, you even attempted to kill your master. Haven't you done enough evil?"

The first sentence made Daoist Master Ironcloud's expression change greatly. When he had committed these deeds back then, he had made sure that those who knew about them were already dead. No one would know about it, so how did this young man know?

"What are you talking about?!"

Daoist Master Ironcloud's expression turned ashen. He looked at Chen Chao as if he were a ferocious beast about to devour him.

Chen Chao remained unfazed and just continued, "Of course, what happens on your mountain stays on your mountain. Even if it were to happen ten thousand times again, what can we do about it? Besides telling you that you deserve death, what else can we do?"

"But since you've plundered the people of my Great Liang Dynasty, then you truly deserve to die."

Chen Chao narrowed his eyes and emphasized each word, "Your crimes are grave and unforgivable, so there's no need for forgiveness!"

Hearing this, the Warden nodded somewhat satisfied, while Yun Jianyue looked at Chen Chao with a complicated expression. He did not know much, but he had probably understood something too. The Chen Chao in front of him must have experienced something, that was why he understood the affairs of the Sublime Bright Sect so clearly.

"Is this the attitude of the Great Liang Dynasty?"

Daoist Master Ironcloud still refused to give up and looked at the Warden.

The Warden looked at Daoist Master Ironcloud and said calmly, "This Warden has traveled all the way from the Divine Capital. Do you think it's just to show you leniency? So many people in my Great Liang Dynasty have suffered humiliation. This official came here to seek justice for them!" Rêạd new chapters at novelhall.com

The current situation in the Divine Capital was known to even the foreign cultivators to some extent. The Warden leaving the Divine Capital was not an easy matter in the first place.

Thinking carefully, when Xie Nandu left the Divine Capital to retrieve the sword, people set their gazes on her. However, on that same day, Chen Chao also left the city. Therefore, his arrival in the Rainwater Commandery was very secretive, known to only a few.

And was the news that the Great Liang Emperor was going to personally lead an expedition fake or not? It just made the Divine Capital seem chaotic and the Warden could not leave in such a situation?

......

......

Daoist Master Ironcloud realized that there was no leeway.

He looked at Yun Jianyue and said, "The Temple Master is a hypocritical person."

Yun Jianyue also looked at Daoist Master Ironcloud but did not refute the statement. It was unknown what he was thinking. As a disciple of the Infatuation Daoist Temple, he should have said something when someone made such remarks, but he did not say anything.

"The Great Liang's laws have always been a laughable thing."

Daoist Master Ironcloud looked at the Warden, the expression on his face very stiff. Then, a sneer appeared on his face.

The Warden said, "Its existence isn't meant to be mocked."

As he spoke, the Warden walked ahead, and then two more peaks of the mountain collapsed.

There were cries of astonishment all over the mountain. The disciples wanted to know what was happening, but at this moment, they could not even find Daoist Master Ironcloud's traces, how would they know what was happening?

Daoist Master Ironcloud said sarcastically, "Today, the Great Liang's laws might fall upon me, but will they fall upon the Temple Master? Will they fall upon those other powerful cultivators?"

The Warden remained silent. He just arrived in front of Daoist Master Ironcloud and his surging blood vitality burst forth without restraint.

According to the Great Liang's laws, Daoist Master Ironcloud still needed to be taken to the Divine Capital for trial. But obviously, he would not allow himself to go there. Therefore, this battle was inevitable and one of them would certainly die in the end.

Daoist Master Ironcloud was not a match for the Warden, but he still made a move.

A boundless power of stars surged out, filling the mountain with dim starlight. He had cultivated for many years, and while his progress had stagnated for many years, as a Nepenthe cultivator, he did not feel that he was completely powerless.

The Warden did not care about those starlights. He was a pure martial artist, without much fanciness. He just threw punches, shattering those starlights one punch after another. Then, he arrived in front of Daoist Master Ironcloud. Those scattered starlights were incredibly sharp, like scattered blades, sufficient to cut through many people's bodies. However, the Warden did not care. The starlights fell and failed to even cut his robe.

He was one of the strongest martial artists in the world, with a body so tough and resilient that few could rival. Forget about these starlights, even if an ordinary sword cultivator used a flying sword to stab him, it would probably not leave a scratch on his body.

Daoist Master Ironcloud saw that mountain-like figure and knew that he was definitely not his match.

He also felt the fear of death.

This was the feeling he had given Chen Chao before. Now, it was being inflicted upon himself.

Daoist Master Ironcloud roared and starlight erupted. An even more powerful aura surged from his body.

At this moment, Daoist Master Ironcloud looked like a brilliant star that was currently shining brightly.

The Warden's body that was akin to a mountain could not completely envelop the currently shining star at this moment.

But he still threw a punch.

This punch containing the lifelong cultivation of the Warden was extremely terrifying. However, when it landed, it simply fell into a cluster of starlight. The Warden furrowed his brows slightly, a little puzzled.

After a moment, the starlight dissipated.

Daoist Master Ironcloud's figure had appeared in front of Chen Chao at some point.

He came with his heavily injured body, securing an opportunity.

A brief opportunity.

He wanted to bring the young man to hell with him.

"Go to hell!"

Daoist Master Ironcloud looked at Chen Chao coldly. At this moment, he seemed like a demon from the abyss.
