Chapter 475 – Just Let Him Go Die (1/2)
Mount Hua Immortal Sect.
The outer sect’s meeting hall.
Xu Shan asked: “How many disciples are left in Heaven’s Boundary?”
“Four.”
The disciple replying softly said: “They are the four placements Luo Tian requested – Yun Ling, Yun Yi, Zhao Chen, and Han Hua. Mount Hua Immortal Sect only has those four left bitterly struggling on, but I estimate they can’t hold on much longer.”
“Those other immortal sect disciples have gone too far!”
“Beating and cursing us, they aren’t treating our Mount Hua Immortal Sect seriously. We were already forced to the outer edges of Heaven’s Boundary but they still didn’t let us off.”
“Elder, we can’t let it go just like that.”
“That’s right!”
“Out of twenty disciples, seven have died and four are seriously injured. If the five of us ran any slower, we would’ve died in their hands already. You guys don’t understand how strong the influence those immortal sects have over us. In their eyes, we are practically beneath dogs!”
The five of them were kneeling down inside the hall with swollen faces.
Each of them showed expressions of resentment.
Xu Shan frowned and said to himself: “Out of twenty disciples, there’s only four left…”
“Those four have definitely suffered for a long time.”
“Those other immortal sect disciples are too tyrannical.”
“Elder, not to mention twenty disciples, we won’t be able to even enter Heaven’s Boundary anymore if this continues on. It’s a place our old ancestors left for us to cultivate. Back then, our Mount Hua Immortal Sect was so strong but now…”
“The placement of those four came from dubious reasons. They’re probably holding on bitterly just to make it look good, so there’s no need to bother with them.”
This was said by one of the Martial Hall Elders.
Xu Shan’s face turned gloomy and immediately refuted: “No matter how dubious, they’re still disciples of our Mount Hua Immortal Sect. Moreover, they are still there holding on.”
“So what?”
“If it weren’t for that trash Luo Tian stirring shit up, why would Grand Elder even agree to it? With so many disciples dying, how come that bunch didn’t die? I even suspect that it’s the Imperial God and Starsea Immortal Sects deliberately retaliating against us. It’s definitely because Luo Tian killed the Starsea Envoy. This whole situation started because of Luo Tian, so he should take all the responsibility for this,” said one of the Elders.
Many of them didn’t like Luo Tian.
Xú Hao was one of them because Luo Tian took away exactly four placements from his personal disciples. This made him incredibly pissed off.
Xu Shan’s expression changed as he started getting angry. “Elder Xú, what are you trying to say? Don’t try to force all responsibility on Luo Tian’s head. Everything was agreed to by the Grand Elder. If you’re trying to find people to hold accountable, doesn’t that mean you want the Grand Elder to be held responsible as well?”
“Humph~!”
“Xu Shan, I know you got some benefits from that kid. He was able to buy you off with a single inner core, huh? You really don’t cost that much.” Xú Hao’s voice was raised a level higher as he continued: “If it wasn’t for that kid, would our Mount Hua Immortal Sect be in such a sorry situation? If it weren’t for him offending the Starsea and Imperial God Immortal Sects, would our Mount Hua Immortal Sect disciples be driven out of Heaven’s Boundary? Everything was due to that piece of trash! Humph~!”
One of the Martial Hall disciples then said: “The Starsea and Imperial God Immortal Sect disciples treated us the most viciously. They kept forcing us to fight with them and once we went up, they would use fatal attacks. Senior brothers Liu and Chen were killed like that by palm strikes. In the past, they would injure us from despisement but never kill us. It’s definitely due to some other conflict for them to change their stance. What Elder Xú said should be right – the reason was definitely due to that kid.”
“That’s right!”
“It’s because of him.”
“If it weren’t for him, we would still be cultivating in Heaven’s Boundary. I’m actually about to break into the Profound Venerate realm.”
“I’m about to breakthrough as well. If it weren’t because of the interference, I would’ve broken through already.”
“Elder Xú, we can’t let that kid off. It was him that caused all of this.”
They had found a reason to drive him out now.
For a brief moment, the spearhead was all pointed at Luo Tian.
