Chapter 639: Chapter 589: Cheng Yaojin Appears Midway

For Pei Xuanjing, only those cultivators above the Sixth Level of the Spiritual Realm could cause trouble and perhaps pose a threat in the future. Killing them and sparing the ordinary disciples would eliminate potential dangers without appearing overly cruel.

This was also an open scheme, a transparent psychological attack, challenging whether these strong figures from the Canglang Palace would trade their own lives for the survival of ordinary disciples.

No matter what these people chose, it would be a huge blow to Canglang Palace.

If these cultivators chose to refuse, they would not only fail to survive, but would also cause their own disciples to deviate from their principles.

Even if these cultivators agreed, willingly trading their own lives for the lives of ordinary disciples, what would that matter? When the strong figures of Canglang Palace in the Sky Wasteland returned again, those ordinary disciples would find it hard to return to Canglang Palace.

“Must you insist on this?” Wei Ping naturally saw through Pei Xuanjing’s ruthlessness, sucking in a cold breath, his heart trembling in apprehension.

“Either take your own lives, or be executed by me. The choice is yours.” Pei Xuanjing remained unmoved, his voice cold.

“I will not tolerate any insult. Pei Xuanjing, prepare to die!” A cultivator from Canglang Palace at the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm immediately exploded in anger, launching an attack on Pei Xuanjing.

Those who could cultivate to the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm were all capable figures. They held powerful positions in this Heaven and Earth and couldn’t accept being insulted by Pei Xuanjing.

The horrific aura exploded, arriving instantly, shaking the heaven and earth.

Yet, facing this person’s attack, Pei Xuanjing did not budge, a cold sneer appeared at the corner of his mouth, he snapped his fingers and executed the Shenxiao Thunder Palm again. The countless thunder trembled, and the Thunder Dragon roared out, pouncing towards the cultivator.

Against Pei Xuanjing’s move, the other party’s attack seemed insignificant. The howling thunder and the roaring Thunder Dragon opened its enormous mouth and swallowed the opponent, leaving him no chance of striking back.

A cultivator at the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm was repressed by Pei Xuanjing in return, this act made many people shudder with fear.

Those cultivators of Canglang Palace who were originally eager to fight Pei Xuanjing to the death had to hold back and dared not move at all.

Wei Ping was also shocked. He found his previous thoughts laughable. There was no point in fighting stubbornly, the few of them, even if they worked together, would be easily crushed by the opponent.

“Do you want to try again?” Pei Xuanjing didn’t care about killing a cultivator at the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm just now. His gaze fell on the people in front of him, and his bland voice rang out again.

However, his seemingly plain voice sounded like the death knell of a soul reaper in everyone’s ears.

Just as everyone was indecisive and helpless, a voice rang out, seeming to be their last straw to cling to life.

“There is a saying: ‘Spare people in positions to show mercy’. Although Canglang Palace may be at fault this time, it has been at a disadvantage from the beginning. Not only have their core disciples died, several of their cultivators have been continuously killed. Even the Third Supreme Elder at the Eighth Level of the Spiritual Realm died in your hands. They have paid a huge price, why not let go?” An old man in a green robe with white hair suddenly appeared on the scene, smiling at Pei Xuanjing with a persuasive tone.

Surprisingly, in a place crowded with strong figures, seemingly no one noticed how this green-robed white-haired old man appeared. It was as if he had appeared out of thin air, leaving no trace of his arrival.

Even Pei Xuanjing frowned when the man appeared, because he felt a sense of danger from the man, a feeling that many people present had not given him.

The members of Canglang Palace were also surprised at who this old man was, seeming to stand up for them.

Only Wei Ping, upon seeing the appearance of the green robe elder, had a glint of joy in his eyes, and he slowly relaxed, feeling that he might still survive.

Similarly, the No Phase True Monarch, who had been watching from a distance, was taken aback at the appearance of the green robe elder, and seemed familiar with the newcomer, and couldn’t help but murmur, “Why has this old fellow come?”

The No Phase True Monarch seemed somewhat apprehensive about the green-robed old man. He subtly hid his aura, not wanting to attract his attention.

“I’ve met the Venerable before, please right the wrongs for us.” Wei Ping immediately pleaded to the green-robed old man who had just appeared, apparently very familiar with him.

Pei Xuanjing’s gaze fell on the green-robed old man, asking, “Are you the reinforcement invited by Canglang Palace?”

Indeed, the appearance of the man in front of him made him feel a sense of danger, but so what? It was not as if someone could just show up out of the blue, forcing him to back down. If that were the case, not only would his ambition of establishing his authority today fail, but these people would also think that he is weak and easily bullied.

“I am friends with the Great Supreme of Canglang Palace. I am only intervening today because of our old friendship. I have come to ask for a favor from you. As the saying goes, one should spare people when possible. Please let this be the end.” The green-robed old man chuckled, his tone gentle, but his words carried a hint of unmistakable firmness.

“Is this Taixu Venerable from the Taixu Sect, a strongest cultivator at the Ninth Realm of Spirit? Though he is only present in a manifestation, he is still incredibly dangerous. You mustn’t underestimate him, National Teacher.” A voice entered Pei Xuanjing’s ears, revealing the identity of the man before him.

Pei Xuanjing was very familiar with this voice, it was the No Phase True Monarch who had clashed with him. Though he didn’t know why the man was taking the initiative to help him, it answered his question and clarified the man’s identity.

Taixu Sect was a top-notch force in the Sky Wasteland, possessing a leading figure at the Nine Realms of Spirit, truly ruling over the Sky Wasteland, and each of their movements caused a sensation in the Sky Wasteland.

In light of the revival of the Ancestral Land, forces comparable to Taixu Sect would naturally send people to prepare for the return of Taixu Sect. Based on the information that Pei Xuanjing had obtained, the person in charge of Taixu Sect this time was a cultivator at the Eighth Level of the Spiritual Realm, but he didn’t expect the Taixu Venerable to appear before him.

Taixu Venerable was indeed at the Nine Realms of Spirit, the real ruler of the Taixu Sect. The ascension of Taixu Sect to a top-notch force was not too long ago and couldn’t compare to the Witch Deity Teaching that was a heritage from the ancient times, but having a strongest amongst the Nine Realms of Spirit set them apart from all the other first-rate forces.
