734 Showdown! (1/2)

He did not speak very loudly and in the current situation, Yan Qing's voice could be said to be very clear. However, it was shocking.

”Not worthy!”

”Not… worthy!”

The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples looked at each other and could see the shock in each other's eyes. After all, Yan Qing's words were the epitome of disrespect.

”Yan Qing, are you brain-damaged? Apologize to Second Elder immediately!” Fourth Elder was tremendously shocked and naturally saw Second Elder's change in expression. He could not help but reprimand him.

”Apologize? Hurhur… I forgot to mention it. You aren't worthy too!” Yan Qing shook his head at Fourth Elder. Then, he turned to look at Sixth Elder and pointed at him and said, ”Oh right, there's Sixth Elder too. You pretentious hypocrite who goes on about the virtues of justice and propriety. You are a false Sage. Do you even have a bottom line?”

”What?!” Sixth Elder was shocked. He never expected Yan Qing to say something like this. Furthermore, most importantly, he even thought of taking Yan Qing in before the latter had emerged from the Divine Rain Pond. However, quickly, his face turned dark as he said, ”Yan Qing, do you know what you're talking about?!”

”Of course I do. What's the problem? If I'm not clear enough, let me repeat myself. The three of you are not fit to be Sages!” Yan Qing nodded his head and replied immediately.

”How dare you!” When Second Elder heard that, he was truly infuriated. A powerful aura rose from his body and his hand moved. A sword, which shone goldenly, appeared in his hands.

This was the first time a weapon appeared in Second Elder's hand since he first appeared. The moment the golden sword appeared, Second Elder leaped up into the air.

Then, a sword radiance which was as fast as lightning came straight down from the sky. An unbelievably sharp aura sliced toward Yan Qing.

”Hahaha… is the dog biting back in panic? What fine results, young man. I like!” Yan Qianli's voice rang out. At the same time, his blood-red spear shot out from his hand and met the golden sword radiance in mid-air.

”Boom!” A huge explosion.

Different auras rolled in the air and the golden light intersected with the blood-red light non-stop. Finally, the two of them died down.

”They're of even strength?!”

”While Second Elder did not use his full strength, I heard that… Yan Qianli only reached the Sage State a short while back, right?”

”Yes, and I heard that it's because of his cultivation of the Dao of Asura. I heard that the Dao of Asura's offensive powers are the strongest among the Six Rebirth Daos. It's powerful indeed!”

The Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples looked at the two radiances, which were dying down, and many of them sighed in admiration. After all, Second Elder was one of the most powerful beings in the Holy Region.

When Second Elder saw his sword being blocked, his face turned angrier as he cursed, ”Yan Qianli, you have yet to join any one of the five sects of the Holy Region, right? Do you want to be an enemy of the Heaven Dao Pavilion?”

”Hurhur, you misunderstood me, Second Elder. While I, Yan Qianli, am brazen, I don't dare to take the Heaven Dao Pavilion alone. Blocking your sword was just to save my grandson,” said Yan Qianli as he pointed to Yan Xiu, whom Yan Qing was helping to carry.

Second Elder frowned and he looked at Yan Qianli. While Yan Qianli's words were difficult to accept, there was nothing wrong with them.

After all, Yan Xiu was indeed in Yan Qing's hands. Hence, it was right for Yan Qianli to block his attack, which was aimed at Yan Qing.

”Alright, Yan Qianli, the Heaven Dao Pavilion's ties with Great Xia have always been good. On your account, I won't pursue this matter anymore. Now that Yan Xiu has been saved, you may leave if you have no further business,” said Second Elder as he nodded his head.

”Thank you, Second Elder. However, it's not possible for me to leave alone, right? It has been an arduous journey and I feel that I should bring more people back with me!” When Yan Qianli heard that, he immediately thanked Second Elder.

”Bring more people back?” Second Elder frowned and he looked at Yan Qing, who stood behind Yan Qianli. He naturally understood what Yan Qianli had meant and he said, ”Impossible. Yan Qing is a disciple of the Heaven Dao Pavilion. Since he has joined our sect, he has to obey its rules and face its punishments!”

”It's just a small infraction. I hope Second Elder can be magnanimous and forgive your junior for this mistake!” Yan Qianli smiled and insisted.

”Yan Qianli, this is an internal matter of the Heaven Dao Pavilion,” Second Elder's voice was dark.

”I understand, I understand…” Yan Qianli nodded his head.

”So why are you still here?”

”I've already said that it has been an arduous journey. Do you understand me, Second Elder?”

”Yan Qianli, do you want to die?”

”Second brother, Yan Qianli was once Prince Yan. Furthermore, he mastered the Dao of Asura…” Just when Second Elder was about to attack, Fourth Elder's voice rang out.

”So what if he has mastered the Dao of Asura? Do you think I'm scared…” Second Elder spoke half-way and then stopped. This was because he noticed that Fourth Elder was looking elsewhere. Furthermore, he was deliberately looking at him in a particular way.

This made a strand of doubt rise in Second Elder's heart. He naturally knew that Fourth Elder would not stop him for no reason. Subconsciously, he looked into the distance.

Then, his face changed slightly.

This was because, at that moment, someone clad in blue robes and wielding the Traceless Sword stood at where Fourth Elder was looking.
