Chapter 1387 - 1388: Tit for Tat

Chapter 1387: Chapter 1388: Tit for Tat

Xiao Tianyu said, he was unsure what the Ghost Cave contained, but even the likes of you Profound Emperor couldn’t possibly survive it.

Of course, it wasn’t that Xiao Tianyu looked down on the Profound Emperor.

The reason he spoke disrespectfully was because the Profound Emperor himself didn’t speak respectfully.

Would Xiao Tianyu fear the Profound Emperor?

However, as soon as Xiao Tianyu said this, all eyes were on him, with expressions of peculiarity. Although Xiao Tianyu had previously defeated Liu Qianhe and replaced the Qianhe Sect.

But in the eyes of the Profound Emperor, it still seemed insufficient.

Yet, his words showed no sign of respect.

Hua~

Indeed, the Profound Emperor’s gaze suddenly became sharp, as someone ranking third on the Ancient Realm List, how could he ever be looked down upon like this?

Instantly, a terrifying aura enveloped Xiao Tianyu.

Weng~

A fierce wind howled, Bai Bufan stepped forward, his eyes coldly fixating on the Profound Emperor with no avoidance, his Long Halberd glowing in hand, his gaze filled with an undisguised chill, even a hint of provocation.

However, he was directly ignored by the Profound Emperor.

You could see he said, "The fact that you cannot withstand the might of the Ghost Cave does not mean others cannot either. In the vast Yanzhou, there are countless people more gifted than you, and several of them are right here. It’s better not to be too arrogant!"

He was reprimanding Xiao Tianyu in words, although the tone was gentle, the meaning was clear to everyone: Xiao Tianyu, coming from the Thousand Cities, was acting boastfully without any knowledge.

Thinking that by killing Liu Qianhe he was remarkable.

In the Yanzhou Region, how many are stronger than Liu Qianhe?

Hearing this, Xiao Tianyu glanced at the Profound Emperor and said indifferently, "Being third on the Ancient Realm List may be lofty in the eyes of others, but I, Xiao, do not see it so. Throughout history, many have held top positions only to be surpassed by others, nothing is absolute in this world!"

The meaning of Xiao Tianyu’s words was simple, though the Profound Emperor was currently third on the Ancient Realm List, eventually someone would surpass him, just like Xiao Tianyu overtook Liu Qianhe.

However, what Xiao Tianyu said was not without reason.

The places trodden by predecessors could always be surpassed and replaced.

"What you said may hold some truth!" At this moment, Jue Chen looked at Xiao Tianyu with a disdainful gaze, "But that person will definitely not be you. In the Yanzhou Ancient Realm, there are countless gifted individuals, and the Ancient Realm is only a small part of them. While you come from the Thousand Cities with some talent, in the Yanzhou Region, there are countless more distinguished people than you!"

Jue Chen’s words were blatant.

They were mocking.

Mocking Xiao Tianyu’s lack of discernment, daring to speak to the Profound Emperor like that.

"Do you dare to fight?" Just then, Li Fei stepped forward, eyes locking onto Jue Chen, with a violent aura and murderous intent raging in his eyes, showing readiness to fight given those words from the opponent.

Strength is the true proof of all.

However, without a word, Jue Chen merely glanced at Li Fei with undisguised contempt.

Inviting Jue Chen to fight, was Li Fei even worthy?

It was evident that Jue Chen did not deign to fight.

Lihen Heaven spoke, "Today you destroyed Qianhe Sect, replacing it and renaming it Xiao Sect, we naturally won’t interfere, this is the inevitable change of times, but as for the matter of the Ghost Cave, you must speak openly!"

The tone held a hint of command.

The Sword Master of Lihen Heaven was giving an order to Xiao Tianyu.

All eyes fell on Xiao Tianyu, the heroes gathering in the Qianhe Sect’s main hall were there only for the Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave.

Now, the Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave had collapsed, only Xiao Tianyu and his people knew what it contained.

According to Jian Wushuang, it contained the power of the Heavenly Dao, unbeatable, but without clear evidence, people remained skeptical.

Even if what Jian Wushuang said was true, there must be extraordinary opportunities within the Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave.

For them, how could they miss it?

Came to the Yanzhou Ancient Realm to experience the trials, wasn’t it about seeking opportunities and enhancing their Martial Arts talent?

Now, the Ghost Cave Road had collapsed, and nobody knew what lay within the Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave, but opportunities were surely present.

Even if the might of Heaven was unyielding.

At this moment, Xiao Tianyu glanced at Lihen Heaven, then shifted his gaze, Lihen Heaven’s dominance mattered little to him.

Then, Xiao Tianyu surveyed the crowd and spoke, "The Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave is perilous and unpredictable, the might of Heaven cannot be resisted, but there are ways to disperse this heavenly might!"

"So you’re saying, one can enter?" The Sect Leader of Celestial Cloud Sect asked Xiao Tianyu, who nodded, "It requires many people to disperse the heavenly might, then there might be a slim chance, otherwise, it’s just courting death, as for what’s inside the Ghost Cave, I don’t know!"

Xiao Tianyu spoke the truth.

He, too, wished to enter the Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave and explore, so he sought to leverage all the forces in the Yanzhou Ancient Realm.

Given the might of the Heavenly Dao, it was too overpowering for one person to withstand.

But with many people, there might be a chance.

Xiao Tianyu’s words instantly caused many to stir.

At this moment, Jue Chen spoke to Xiao Tianyu, "You better be telling the truth, otherwise, the consequences are not something you can bear!"

Jue Chen’s words were extremely cold.

He was warning Xiao Tianyu not to lie, or else he would leave Xiao Tianyu without a place to be buried.

Then, Jue Chen didn’t even look back at Xiao Tianyu and the others as he left with people from the Juechen Sword Sect.

Jian Wushuang cast a look at Xiao Tianyu, full of helplessness, after all, he was the Vice Sect Leader of the Juechen Sword Sect.

Then, a voice echoed, "In half a month, everyone from the Juechen Sword Sect will gather at the Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave. At that time, we will probe what the Ghost Cave truly holds, and we hope everyone will arrive on schedule, too!"

As the voice faded, the figures of the Juechen Sword Sect’s entourage gradually drifted away, quickly vanishing into the void.

But no one paid much attention to what Jue Chen said to Xiao Tianyu.

It seemed that, in everyone’s eyes, Jue Chen had the qualification to punish Xiao Tianyu.

Regarding this, Xiao Tianyu merely smiled, he had seen many like Jue Chen before, yet in the end, who could truly best him?

"Truly tyrannical!" Bai Bufan whispered with an extremely cold gaze.

"Half a month later, at the Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave, don’t forget!" The Profound Yellow glanced at Xiao Tianyu and then also departed into the void.

Next, it was Lihen Heaven’s turn.

Though Lihen Heaven said nothing, the look in his eyes upon leaving spoke volumes.

The top three factions had all left, and the others naturally had no interest in staying, quickly vacating the Qianhe Sect, awaiting the Celestial Mirror Ghost Cave expedition in half a month.

However, the commotion caused by Xiao Tianyu and his companions today still left many trembling in heart.
