Chapter 82 - 82: Dispute
Editor: Henyee Translations
At this moment.
Be it the Violet Palace Realm demonic cultivators or the Level 3 demon beasts, they were all like rats that had seen a cat and began to scatter in different directions.
Facing two Golden Core Realm cultivators, it was impossible for them to be their match.
They didn’t even have the thought that perhaps with their strength combined, they might be able to fight the two of them for a few rounds.
Even if there was a chance to win, with the selfish nature of demonic cultivators and demon beasts, would they really cooperate with each other to resist the two Golden Core cultivators?
The answer was no.
Therefore, in the next moment, Jiang Chengxuan and the others saw that the arrogant demonic cultivators and many Level 3 demon beasts were fleeing in panic like stray dogs.
However, the two Golden Cores were determined to clean them up.
Without hesitation, the spear in Nangong Baizhan’s hand pierced through the bodies of three Level 3 demon beasts and completely tore them apart.
Then, he raised his hand and swung it.
With a buzz, an extremely terrifying huge spear shadow pierced through the heads of two demonic cultivators and exploded them in the air.
Meanwhile, Hong Tianqi raised his hand and flicked his finger indifferently.
There was a rumble.
A mountain that was a thousand feet tall suddenly pressed down on the remaining demonic cultivators and demon beasts.
At this moment, time stopped.
The demonic cultivators and demon beasts who were fleeing in panic were like little bugs sealed in amber. No matter how they struggled and tried, they could not move at all.
Just like that.
The Purple-Eyed Demon Wolf, the Double-Eyed Demon Snake, the Three-Eyed Eagle, the Three-Tailed Fire Lizard, and the demonic cultivators were all crushed into powder by this mountain.
They died on the spot!
Only the Blue-eyed Demon Ape seemed to have activated a Level L, Space Breaking Talisman at the critical moment and disappeared into the void.
At this moment, everyone who saw this scene was extremely shocked.
As expected of a Golden Core Realm cultivator, his strength was indeed terrifying.
The high and mighty Violet Palace Realm cultivators were only slightly larger ants in front of the two of them.
Compared to Qi Refinement and Foundation Establishment cultivators like them, the difference was not huge.
“Disciple Yun, go and chase after the remaining demon beasts immediately, including those demonic cultivators. Try your best not to let any of them off. Supreme Elder Nangong and I will chase after the Shadow Demon, Zhao Gucheng.”
At this moment, Hong Tianqi turned to look at Yun Dongshan, who was in the crowd, and instructed calmly.
Yun Dongshan immediately bowed.
“Yes, Supre Elder Hong!”
When he looked up again, Hong Tianqi and Nangong Baizhan were no longer in the air.
He couldn’t help but reveal a bitter smile.
At this moment, he roughly understood what the two supreme elders were up to.
They intentionally spread the news that they were going to Zeyuan County. But in fact, they joined forces with the Supreme Elder of the Starlight Sect, Situ Zhan, to secretly enter Flat Land County.
It was probably because they wanted to take the opportunity to give the Wolf King a fatal blow.
Yun Dongsha was too familiar with such a tactic.
If he guessed correctly, it should be Elder Mengxue’s idea.
He just did not know how Elder Mengxue would react to Hong Tianqi and the others doing nothing to save Tian Qi and causing Shen Yuanlong to be seriously injured.
Hopefully, nothing bad would happen.
However, it was undeniable that Hong Tianqi and Nangong Baizhan’s tactic was quite effective.
If they could successfully kill Zhao Guchcng with Situ Zhan, it would be considered a huge victory.
At the same time, Xie Feiyang and the Black Wind Snake King, who were stalling Zheng Pelong, suddenly seemed to have received a message. The expressions on their faces changed at the same time.
The two demons did not delay at all.
After colliding fiercely with Zheng Pelong’s sword, they turned into streaks of light and instantly disappeared into the distant sky.
Seeing this, Zheng Pelong, who was standing quietly in midair, suddenly had a deep look in his eyes.
He muttered, “Hong Tianqi, Nangong Baizhan, did you succeed?
I hope that the two of you won’t cause any trouble for me this time. You must protect that person from the Shen family. Otherwise, I really won’t be able to face my Dao companion.”
As he muttered to himself, Zheng Pelong’s figure had already disappeared on the spot.
Half a month later.
Yun Dongshan and Shen Yuanlong received the news.
It was said that the Shadow Demon, Zhao Gucheng, had his physical body destroyed by Situ Zhan, Hong Tianqi, and Nangong Baizhan, leaving behind a Golden Core before managing to escape.
This was equivalent to completely cutting off the other party’s path to the Dao.
Even if he wanted to recover in the future, it would be impossible without a hundred or two hundred years.
Moreover, even if he recovered in the end, the cultivation and strength of Zhao Gucheng would be greatly reduced. He might die in the hands of another Golden Core demonic cultivator midway.
After all, it was not strange for demonic cultivators to plunder each other.
On the other hand, it was said that Shen Mengxue had a dispute with Hong Tianqi, who had returned to the Ganyang Sect after the incident.
This time, Shen Mengxue seemed to be really angry. She actually asked Hong Tianqi, the Golden Core Supreme Elder, to give her an explanation in front of everyone in the Ganyang Sect.
Only Shen Mengxue had the courage to do this. She had accumulated enough contributions for the Ganyang Sect and her prestige was high enough.
Otherwise, if it was someone else, they would definitely not be able to bear the consequences.
After all, in the cultivation world, it was a huge taboo to offend one’s superiors.
Even if you’re right, you’re not because you have a low cultivation level.
However, Shen Mengxue was obviously different.
First of all, her contribution to the Ganyang Sect was not inferior to the three Golden Core Supreme Elders. In addition, she had Zheng Pelong behind her. Moreover, strictly speaking, Hong Tianqi was in the wrong to begin with.
Therefore, although Hong Tianqi was unhappy with Shen Mengxue’s attitude, he did not flare up.
In the end, Hong Tianqi used a piece of Violet Palace Jade as an apology to let this matter rest.
What kind of an item was Violet Palace Jade?
It was a supreme treasure that could nurture a Violet Palace Realm cultivator.
It was impossible for Hong Tianqi, who was usually domineering, to not hold a grudge..
