Xianxia: I Built the Heavenly Secret Pavilion; All People Worships Me (Patreon)

Chapter 74: I want a fair and square battle with him!

Glup!

Quite a few people simultaneously swallowed their saliva.

No one dared to breathe heavily.

Although this was the Tian Gang Sect's main gate, the situation was stronger than the people.

An individual who had reached the realm of a Saint suppressed the entire sect into silence.

"Today, I'm in a good mood, so I'll let you all off this time." Yang Qiu glanced at the crowd and generously waved his sleeve.

After finishing his words, he took a step forward, appearing directly tens of thousands of miles away, moving at an extreme speed.

This speed didn't seem like a leisurely departure but more like an escape.

Just now, the Tian Gang Sect's elder whom he slapped to death had mentioned that he had notified the Radiant Light Holy Land.

Given the strength of the Radiant Light Holy Land, a Saint would probably arrive soon.

If he continued to stay in the Tian Gang Sect or intended to annihilate it, that wouldn't be a problem.

However, the issue would be how to escape afterward.

The cultivation level of a Saint is formidable in other places.

However, when facing the Radiant Light Holy Land, it still falls short.

Today, in front of countless disciples of the Tian Gang Sect, Yang Qiu ruthlessly trampled on the Radiant Light Holy Land.

It was exhilarating, but the retaliation that followed would be fierce. So, he had to first escape from the influence of the Radiant Light Holy Land.

The Tian Gang Sect, numerous elders, and disciples were dumbfounded.

They all stood frozen in place.

The demonic energy had already dissipated, the world returned to clarity, and everything that happened just now seemed like an illusion, extremely unreal, if not for everyone bearing injuries.

They almost mistook it for a dream.

"Sect Master!" The Supreme Elder of the Tian Gang Sect, as if recalling something, ignored his own injuries and quickly rushed to the Sect Master's hall, soon entering a hidden chamber. There, he found the Sect Master of the Tian Gang Sect whose cultivation had been sealed.

"Sect Master, how are you?" The Supreme Elder undid the seal, expressing concern.

"Furious!" The moment the seal was released, the Sect Master of the Tian Gang Sect emitted a roar that seemed inhuman.

He stood up with a bang, surrounded by a fierce aura.

"Where is Yang Qiu? I want a fair and square battle with him!"

"Sect Master, he has become a Saint!"

"What?!" The Sect Master of the Tian Gang Sect's eyes darkened, and he staggered, almost fainting.

He roared to the heavens, full of grief and indignation, "My Heaven and Earth Nurturing Pill!"

"Quick! Quickly inform the Radiant Light Holy Land, don't let that scoundrel Yang Qiu escape!" After a moment, the Sect Master of the Tian Gang Sect regained his composure and urgently spoke.

"Sect Master, don't worry. We have already notified the Radiant Light Holy Land. They must have sent people to hunt down Yang Qiu. That scoundrel has just become a Saint and can't have gone too far!" The Supreme Elder of the Tian Gang Sect said in a low voice, "With the Radiant Light Holy Land's strength, they will surely avenge us!"

"Good." Hearing the word "revenge," the Sect Master of the Tian Gang Sect seemed to have been drained of all his strength, sitting dejectedly on the ground, looking up at the sky with tears in the corners of his eyes. "Yang Qiu will surely die, but my Heaven and Earth Nurturing Pill is also lost."

At the Radiant Light Holy Land, on a divine peak, on the summit, beneath an ancient and vigorous plum tree that had seen countless years, plum blossoms bloomed on its branches, defying frost and snow. The refreshing fragrance permeated the entire mountain top.

Beneath the plum tree, the Radiant Light Holy Lord, in a long robe with a jade crown on his head, his face covered in divine light, sat next to a stone table, manipulating a chess piece.

He was playing chess with a black silhouette.

"Have you found out the information from the Heavenly Secret Pavilion?"

The Radiant Light Holy Lord dropped a chess piece, calmly asking.

"Unable to find out." The black figure shook its head, also picking up a chess piece.

After contemplating for a moment, it said, "The Heavenly Secret Pavilion seemed to have appeared out of thin air, overnight, in the Great Wilderness City. We searched the vicinity of the Great Wilderness City for a million miles, but found no traces."

"Oh?" The Radiant Light Holy Lord raised an eyebrow, paused his move, and said in surprise, "Appeared out of thin air? With your capabilities, couldn't you find any clues?"

"No trace." The black figure shook its head once again.

"Strange." Radiant Light Holy Lord furrowed his brows.

He didn't believe that in this world, someone could appear out of nowhere.

Nor did he believe that someone could completely erase their past.

However, the recent investigations hinted otherwise.

Every detail seemed to tell him that the master of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion appeared out of thin air, leaving no trace of his past.

"Is it really possible for someone to completely erase their own past?" Radiant Light Holy Lord put down the chess piece, lightly tapping the tabletop.

His eyes suddenly brightened, and he said in a deep voice, "Do you think he might have blocked the Heavenly Secrets, making it impossible for us to find his past?"

"Well," the shadowy figure hesitated for a moment and said, "it's not impossible. Since the master of the Heavenly Secret Pavilion can calculate the Heavenly Secrets, blocking them might not be too difficult."

"This person is too dangerous." Radiant Light Holy Lord's expression wasn't pleasant.

He spoke, "His origin is a mystery, and he has a conflict with the Radiant Light Holy Land. I'm worried he might deduce my origin. If he does deduce it, despite our thousand years of preparation, we might end up in dire straits!"

"Even more," Radiant Light Holy Lord continued, "it could provoke the Radiant Light Holy Land, our formidable enemy!"

Radiant Light Holy Lord's words were conflicting, but to the shadowy figure, it seemed quite ordinary. He nodded in agreement.

The shadowy figure paused and said, "I understand what you're saying, but…" He was about to say something more when Radiant Light Holy Lord's expression changed.

In a subtle motion, he waved his hand and said, "Someone is coming. Withdraw for now."

"Understood."

The shadowy figure nodded, and his figure dissipated with the wind, leaving no trace behind.

After the disappearance of the shadowy figure, Leng Qianqiu ascended step by step from the foot of the mountain.
