It's Lonely To Be Invincible

The three peak leaders captured by Elder Tian Xu were lying on the ground, embarrassed.

"I am the leader of Great Emperor Peak and a candidate for Patriarch. How can you treat me like this?" Zhan Hongdi stood proudly. Even if he was in a sorry state, his aura was steadily rising. "You keep saying that we killed your disciple, but where is the evidence?"

Wan Zhongtian had the weakest cultivation among the ten peak leaders. He was a proud son of the heavens, but now he did not dare to say anything before the terrifying might of Elder Tian Xu. He just stood there with his head lowered.

Jun Wutian had also tried resisting before, but under the might of Elder Tian Xu, he could only withdraw all courses of action and let himself get caught so as to avoid any painful suffering. But at this moment, he was staring at Elder Tian Xu with a burning hot gaze. "There are rules. We three are candidates for Patriarch. No one can do anything to us except for Patriarch. Elder Tian Xu, even you don't have the right to punish us, let alone attack us."

The disciples in the vicinity shivered at the sight of this; their eyes were filled with horror. This was the first time they had encountered such a thing since they had entered the sect. An Elder, who was at the peak of the sect, was suppressing three peak leaders, throwing all caution to the wind.

The ten peak leaders in the sect were all popular candidates for Patriarch. They were strong and were role models for all the disciples. In order to maintain the prestige of the ten peak leaders, all the elders of the sect kept one eye closed to all of their doings. As long as they didn't go overboard, they didn't ask.

But now, Elder Tian Xu had captured the three like ants in public with great strength, paying no heed to his surroundings or situation, which had startled everyone. If all ten peak leaders were in the sect, perhaps Elder Tian Xu would have captured them all without asking any questions.

That would have been really amazing.

A bruised and battered Huo Rong quickly tried to persuade, "Tian Xu, that's enough! I'm afraid we still need Patriarch to make a decision regarding this matter. There are disciples here, we can't destroy their prestige completely."

"My disciple is dead, so why would they need any prestige?" Tian Xu rebuked sternly. His eyes were red with bloodlust; obviously, he had already decided to kill the three. No one ever would have dared to imagine that an elder, who was part of the core of the sect, would decide to kill a patriarch candidate

"You won't admit it, that's fine! Let me take a look at the disgusting thoughts hidden in your souls."

In an instant, the world suddenly started shaking. The three immediately felt as if they were imprisoned. The aura energy in their bodies froze. They couldn't move even an inch.

Zhan Hongdi roared as his eyes widened in anger.

"How dare you!?"

He hadn't expected Elder Tian Xu to really search their souls, which was simply a matter of shame for them. A little carelessness on anyone's part would damage their souls; they might become idiots.

"Emperor Hong Reappears and Descends into His True Body!"

All the fine hairs on Zhan Hongdi stood erect as let out a furious roar. All the earth energy in his body started seething as monstrous energy erupted from every pore of his body. Immediately, a huge vague figure appeared behind him. It was full of fighting spirit as if the god of war himself had descended to the world. It wore golden battle armor and carried a heaven-defying artifact. Its terrifying pressure enveloped the world.

"He has congealed a Heaven Star Body. He has taken half a step into the Heaven Star Border Realm." Elder Huo Rong was shocked but very pleased at the same time. Finally, a disciple is about to step into the Heaven Star Border Realm. This is a blessing for our sect.

At this moment, Jun Wutian too would not sit back for death to take him, nor would he hide his strength anymore. He unleashed his entire strength.

"Lawlessness of Heaven and Earth."

Elder Huo Rong was shocked again. He hadn't expected for Jun Wutian to have reached this level. The pressure emanating from him was a bit stronger than Zhan Hongdi.

Nothing can happen to these disciples.

"Tian Xu, stop." Elder Huo Rong grabbed in the air without a moment of hesitation, trying to resist Tian Xu's attack. But his countenance changed drastically in a flash. His offensive was reduced to nothing before Tian Xu's. Furthermore, a continuous force was coming straight at him; Tian Xu had launched an attack on him.

Bang!

Bang!

The Heaven Star Bodies of Zhan Hongdi and Jun Wutian were shattered with two deafening explosions in a flash, reduced to the purest earth energy, which returned directly into their bodies.

Their eyes were ready to pop out, and their hearts beat with fear.

In their pupils, a finger like the hand of God sealed time and space around them. All they could do was wait for the finger to fall, only then could they move.

Suddenly, a voice resounded from the furthest depths of the sect, shattering time and space.

"Tian Xu, that's enough."

This voice was filled with majesty, making it difficult for the others to refuse. The three peak leaders felt their bodies loosen at the same time. The pressure bearing down on them had completely disappeared.

They fiercely stepped back, looking at Tian Xu with vigilance. They hadn't expected Tian Xu to really attack them.

Elder Huo Rong breathed a sigh of relief before gazing toward the depths of the sect. He knew that it was Patriarch who had made the move.

If Patriarch still hadn't taken any action, something big would have really happened. These disciples are the future of the sect. They absolutely cannot fall by our hands.

And Tian Xu is really impulsive. As the top elder of the sect, how can he disregard his identity before so many disciples? Would this not make the disciples lose hope in the sect?

"It's not enough. They killed this old man's apprentice. How can I let it go?" Elder Tian Xu stared straight; he didn't show any sign of stepping back.

Wan Zhongtian immediately kowtowed on the ground, "Patriarch, I'm sure you know this, disciple Wan Zhongtian has really not killed Junior Brother Lin."

He broke into tears. He really didn't know what was going on. Nothing good had happened to him since he met Lin Fan. Last time, he had completely lost face when he kowtowed in the inner sect. Originally, he was just cultivating in peace, without paying attention to anything, but he was directly captured by Elder Tian Xu from the peak. He had lost face before many of his junior brothers once again. He thought well about why this happened and realized that someone had put the blame on him.

"Tian Xu, I already know about this. Although someone sent four first-class inner disciples to besiege and kill your disciple, they were eventually beheaded by Ming You of the Divine Religion. My sect has already lost five disciples."

"Senior Brother, are you trying to shield them?" Tian Xu's eyes flashed with anger. He knew what his senior brother was thinking about, but he didn't care. Whoever dared to kill his disciple had to die.

Huo Rong furrowed his brow, "Tian Xu, how can you talk to Patriarch like this?"

Jun Wutian and Zhan Hongdi could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. Be that as it may, the two also started kowtowing regarding this, "Patriarch, as one of the ten peak leaders, I have treated my junior brothers with great care, I will never do anything that would put them in harm's way. I'm sure Patriarch is aware of this."

"We know Elder Tian Xu is in pain. We are willing to bear the loss of our peaks in light of this."

A killing intent emerged in Tian Xu's heart as he looked at the two, but he knew that the Patriarch, his senior brother, had come forward, so he couldn't kill the two today. However, that didn't mean that he was letting them go.

"Okay, today you are protected by Senior Brother, but let this old man give you a reminder; as long as you take a step outside the sect, this old man will take your lives and bury you with my disciple.

"This old man will watch over you for the rest of my life."

Domineering, ruthless, and unscrupulous.

Jun Wutian and Zhan Hongdi's hearts beat with fear. It never even occurred to them that Elder Tian Xu would say this in front of so many disciples, disregarding his identity as an elder.

At the sect entrance, everyone could hear the Patriarch in the depths of the sect sigh. He and Tian Xu were junior and senior brothers. An elder of the sect should not say something like this, but he knew Tian Xu's temperament. It hadn't changed even after a few decades. However, now this matter had erupted in a flash, and no one could stop it.

The onlooking disciples were also trembling. Elder Tian Xu's words had scared them to the point that their faces were pale. At the same time, they felt pity for the three.

In the future, they will never think of going out of the sect. Elder Tian Xu will always be keeping an eye on them. They will really die if they leave the sect.

Furthermore, they didn't suspect that Elder Tian Xu was joking. If they stepped out of the sect, they would really end up dead.

"Hmph!" Tian Xu snorted and left immediately. But his perception was already covering the three.

Jun Wutian and the others could sense his aura. Their faces had also gone pale. They too hadn't expected the matter to develop to this level.

They too believed that Elder Tian Xu wasn't kidding. He really had every intent to kill them.

But two among the three were innocent in this matter. They even hated the guy who sent those disciples to besiege Lin Fan.

Aren't you just courting death?
