The causes and effects of this situation are too complex for anyone to clearly define.
However, undoubtedly, it was the Golden Vajra Monk who not only caused a heavy loss for the North Zen Sect, but also indirectly resulted in the loss of a disciple representing the world’s number one.
The hatred between the two parties is as deep as the sea. Consequently, how could Master Jie Tan, who is currently serving as the abbot of the North Zen Sect, not be enraged?
Pei Xuanjing, watching the two bickering, mused silently. He himself has a connection with the Golden Vajra Monk; the Dragon Elephant Art he cultivated was obtained from the Diamond Gate, passed down from the monk.
The likelihood of the True Martial Sect possessing the seventh and eighth levels of the Dragon Elephant Art could be traced back to the time when the sect ascended Taihe Mountain, and seized them.
“Esoteric Sect’s Bahe Siba is here today on Taihe Mountain, I request the presence of Master Sanfeng!”
The Grand Sorcerer of the Great Yuan was standing there, slowly speaking up.
His voice echoed through Taihe Mountain, but there was no response whatsoever.
Li Qingxiu took a step forward, bowed and said, “Junior Li Qingxiu from the True Martial Sect greets the Grand Sorcerer. My master is in seclusion and cannot meet you. I ask for your understanding.” His words were polite and balanced, neither servile nor overbearing.
However, the Grand Sorcerer obviously didn’t believe him. He returned half of the formalities, and said indifferently, “I have long admired the renowned Master Sanfeng. I travelled all the way from the Western Regions hoping to have a Taoist discussion with him. Am I not even worthy of meeting him in person? I beseech you to pass this message on: Bahe Siba of the Esoteric Sect is here, he requests Master Sanfeng to end his seclusion.”
The thunderous voice rang out, the Grand Sorcerer did not hide his intent. Although his tone was calm, it carried an undeniable will.
As the lord of the Western Regions and the Grand Sorcerer of the Great Yuan, Bahe Siba was not only a martial artist but also a ruler, naturally possessing an aura of authority.
Unmoved, Li Qingxiu, as the disciple of the number one martial artist of the Central Plains, though humble and polite, carried a certain degree of pride.
Now confronted with someone treating him thus, with their words hinting disrespect for his master, he was not at ease.
As he was on the verge of flying into a rage, a person behind lightly stepped forward, held his shoulder, and quietly voiced out.
“Since the Grand Sorcerer has travelled from afar to engage in martial arts competition, why not try your hand with me?”
The speaker was Zhang Zhizhan, the current Heavenly Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain.
Originating in the era of the Divine Han, the Heavenly Master’s Tao was established after the first Heavenly Master was granted the three authentic laws by the heavens. The Zhengyi Alliance’s prestige has been maintained over thousands of years, unaffected by the rise and fall of empires.
Only someone with the last name Zhang can become the Heavenly Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain. Even if they were not born into the Zhang family, they would change their surname to Zhang after taking up the title of Heavenly Master, as a sign of respect.
Pei Xuanjing even speculated that there must be many records about the cultivation methods prior to the catastrophe during the Tang Dynasty within Dragon Tiger Mountain.
Sadly, faced with such an ancient lineage and profound power, even he dared not act recklessly.
“So it’S the current Heavenly Master.” The Grand Sorcerer nodded lightly and smiled, then shook his head and said, “Regrettably, the Heavenly Master is not my match.” Although his words were plain, the content was rather provocative.
If anyone else had said this, they would be viewed as conceited.
Who was he talking about? The current Heavenly Master of Dragon Tiger Mountain, whose strength is acknowledged as being among the top ten in the martial arts world, yet he speaks of him as not being a match for himself.
And yet, when these words came from the Grand Sorcerer’s mouth, many people felt it was indeed the case, and found it hard to dispute.
Whoosh…
The mountain wind blew, making Zhang Zhizhan’s Daoist robe billow soundly.
Although he Imew he was not Bahe Siba’s match, hearing the latter speak so disrespectfully still made him slightly angry.
“Then allow me, Zhang, to experience the Grand Sorcerer’s superior skills?” Able to be a Heavenly
Master, Zhang Zhizhan was no small-minded person. Quickly dispersing his anger, he spoke slowly.
Bahe Siba looked at Zhang Zhizhan and clearly had a certain degree of praise for Zhang Zhizhan’s ability to remain unmoved by honour or disgrace.
In the world of martial arts, being unmatched is not shameful. One only needs to persist in hard cultivation to catch up.
However, he had met many people who, once exposed by him, became angry from embarrassment, which he found contemptible.
“Hahaha, besides Master Sanfeng, everyone else on Taihe Mountain are just mediocre people. You all rabble, dare to stop the Grand Sorcerer?”
The Golden Vajra Monk suddenly laughed coldly, considering all the heroes gathered on Taihe Mountain as insignificant, exceedingly arrogant.
As the trusted confidant of the Grand Sorcerer of the Great Yuan, he naturally knew that Bahe Siba holds a great fear for Master Sanfeng, considering him the greatest enemy he’s encountered in his life. Even when he is certain to win, he doesn’t have confidence in his victory.
Therefore, he saw through their plotting, guessing that they intend to make the first move to wear out Bahe Siba, to pave the way for Master Sanfeng’s victory.
So he could not tolerate such a thing happening and decided to clear these obstacles for Bahe Siba to conserve his strength.
“Insolent thief!”
Facing the Golden Vajra Monk’s wild words, the heroes were all seething with anger.
Although Bahe Siba’s aura had terrified many, making them feel they were no match for him, it certainly wasn’t enough to intimidate them into submission by a mere Golden Vajra Monk.
In an instant, numerous formidable killing intents emerged, practically materializing as they rushed towards the Golden Vajra Monk.
Boom!
Facing the threats of so many powerful figures, anyone else might have to think twice.
However, he was naturally an obstinate and arrogant person, so instead of being afraid, a haughty
smile surfaced on his face..
