Chapter 520 Sword Cometh Peak Besieges the Island (1/2)

On the Saint Genesis Peak island.

Countless glowing figures swarmed towards the island from the east, practically blotting out the sky with their vast numbers. The Genesis Qi undulations that pulsed from each figure caused the sea below to churn violently.

Nearly ten thousand figures ultimately came to a stop some distance from the island, as countless piercing gazes shot towards the island, creating an alarming pressure.

On the island, the few hundred Saint Genesis Peak disciples nervously gazed at the great army. The other side’s numbers were far too great, making it feel as if there was no end to them at a glance.

Cold sweat emerged on everyone’s palms. When had the declining Saint Genesis Peak ever seen such a line-up?

Fortunately for them, Zhou Yuan was standing on a boulder in front of everyone, his calm face seemingly possessing a unique power that gradually calmed the hearts of the flustered disciples.

Zhou Yuan lifted his head, his eyes narrowing slightly as he looked towards the crazy number of Sword Cometh Peak disciples. He could also see a few figures even further away, who were most likely disciples from the other peaks that had come to observe.

While Zhou Yuan swept his gaze across the place, three figures flew out from the giant army of disciples and stopped some distance in front of them. It was Kong Sheng, Zhao Zhu and Baili Che.

Kong Sheng cast his indifferent gaze over, pausing on Zhou Yuan for a moment, before looking towards Yaoyao, who was a little further behind.

It was obvious that he felt Zhou Yuan was not worthy of his attention. If not for Yaoyao’s existence, Saint Genesis Peak would be nothing in his eyes.

Kong Sheng shot a glance at Baili Che, indicating that the former should step forward.

Zhou Yuan was merely a chief disciples, and did not have the qualifications to speak to him.

Baili Che immediately understood and slowly stepped forward. His piercing gaze looked towards the guarded Saint Genesis Peak disciples as a thunderous voice boomed, “I’ll ask one last time. Do you Saint Genesis Peak disciples really intend on declaring war on my Sword Cometh Peak?”

Bzz!

The Genesis Qi in all the Sword Cometh Peak disciples abruptly began to circulate at this moment. Countless pillars of aggressive Genesis Qi dashed into the sky, tearing apart the clouds.

An intimidating pressure engulfed the island, causing the numerous Saint Genesis Peak disciples to feel difficulty breathing as their expressions turned exceptionally grave.

They finally had a taste of Sword Cometh Peak’s strength.

As such, the island turned stiflingly silent.

The corners of Baili Che’s mouth raised a little as he nonchalantly said, “Sword Cometh Peak does not take advantage of others, nor wishes to bully weaklings. But since someone has done something foolish, this person will naturally have to pay the price.”

“I feel that this price should be borne by the one who instigated this matter on his own, and not other Saint Genesis Peak disciples.”

He softly chuckled, before he continued, “If you guys feel the same, you only need to take two steps back. We will not only let you off, but even give you guys some Genesis essence to complete Genesis reservoir ceremony.”

“Of course… we’ll require those few ringer leaders to give Sword Cometh Peak an explanation.”

The disciples from the other peaks could not help but grin when they heard Baili Che’s words. What an underhanded tactic.

In this situation, if the Saint Genesis Peak disciples gave in the the pressure and stepped back, wouldn’t that mean that they were handing over their chief disciple Zhou Yuan?

This would undoubtedly make Zhou Yuan a huge laughing stock.

How big of a failure would a chief disciple be if he was unable to win over his fellow disciples and end up being sold off by them instead?

No one would be thick skinned enough to continue being chief disciples if this happened to them.

Baili Che’s voice also landed in the ears of the numerous Saint Genesis Peak disciples, causing them to look at each other. However, none of them took even a single step back. Somewhere at front, Zhou Tai laughed icily and said, “Baili Che, stop trying these petty tricks. We’ll gladly face whatever you’re going to throw at us!”

“That’s right!”

“Do you think we’re afraid of you guys!”

“Worst comes to worst, we’ll just give up on this Genesis reservoir ceremony!”

“……”

The other disciples shouted one after another. Baili Che was truly vicious. To think that he would attempt such a tactic to divide them.

Baili Che raised his eyebrows, somewhat surprised as he glanced at Zhou Yuan. The former had not expected the latter to already possess such popularity in Saint Genesis Peak.

Baili Che shook his head and said, “Since you refuse our generous offer, don’t blame us later on.”

With a wave of his hand, two thousand disciples began to spread out in a fan formation, before advancing towards the island.
