Three years ago, it was still very wasteful for Lin Yun to defeat a third-stage Empyrean Realm, and trying to kill a third-stage Empyrean Realm was even more nearly impossible; there was a difference between defeating and beheading.
In three years’ time, Lin Yun had actually improved so much?
“Patriarch, this isn’t the time to talk about a disciple’s strength, it’s better to talk about the matter of the Ancient Family.” Lin Yun smiled bitterly.
The Patriarch leaned back on his throne and said slowly, “This matter, there’s nothing to talk about, since the person has already been killed, so be it, who asked Gu Yu to repeatedly take the initiative to find trouble with you? If the Ancient Family really comes to the door, even though his Ancient Family is powerful, my Heavenly Sword Sect is not a dry meal! If the fish really has to die, I guarantee that his Gu Family won’t feel good either!”
Lin Yun was stunned, not expecting the Patriarch to say that.
“Patriarch, I don’t want to involve the entire Heavenly Sword Sect, this matter started because of me, if this matter will plunge the Heavenly Sword Sect into deep water, I’m willing to go out and take it on alone!” Lin Yun spoke with a resounding tone.
The Patriarch laughed and shook his head, “You little fellow, don’t think nonsense, as long as the Heavenly Sword Sect is still in existence, it won’t let anything happen to you, first take your friend back to rest, I’ll instruct the deacon to arrange a room for your friend.”
As soon as the Patriarch’s words fell, a loud voice, entered the great hall.
“The Super Ancient Family has descended, Heavenly Sword Sect Patriarch and Elders, show yourself quickly!”
“Coming so fast?” The Patriarch frowned.
“Sovereign, what should we do?” Lin Yun looked at the Patriarch.
“You stay in the main hall, I’ll take care of it.” The Patriarch said.
After the words fell, the Patriarch directly took to the air and flew out of the great hall.
Only Lin Yun and Pang Liang remained in the great hall.
“Lin Yun, I didn’t expect the Heavenly Sword Sect Patriarch to treat you so well, not only did he not chastise you, but he also directly stated that he would protect you.” Pang Liang marvelled.
“Even though the Patriarch wants to protect me, the Ancient Family is ultimately quite a bit stronger than the Heavenly Sword Sect, and this could bring disaster to the Heavenly Sword Sect.” Lin Yun’s complex expression was worried in his heart.
With Lin Yun’s character, he didn’t want to involve the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Outside the great hall.
The sound of the shouting just now spread throughout the entire Heavenly Sword Sect, and the disciples were all surprised by it.
Hundreds of metres above the sky at the mountain gate, there were dozens of figures, which contained a third-stage Mahayana realm, and a first-stage Mahayana realm, a second-stage Mahayana realm, and the rest were all Empyrean Realms as well, a lineup that was quite luxurious!
In the Heavenly Sword Sect, the number of Mahayana realms were all but a handful, just a few red-robed elders that were in the Mahayana realm.
“Heavens, casually three Mahayana Realms have come, worthy of being a super family!”
“By the looks of it, the other party is raging and coming from a bad place!”
“They’re here to find Senior Brother Lin Yun?”
…… When
the disciples felt these powerful auras, they all paled.
“Fellow Daoists of the Ancient Family, why do you need to be so aggressive when you come to my Sky Sword Sect.”
A loud voice resounded through the sky.
Immediately after, the Heavenly Sword Sect Patriarch rose into the air.
The aura that erupted from the Patriarch was clearly the Second Turn Transition Realm!
The Transition Realm was divided into the First Turn Transition Realm, Second Turn Transition Realm, Third Turn Transition Realm …… and Ninth Turn Transition Realm!
With each additional turn, naturally, the strength would also rise.
At this time, the three red-clothed elders of the Heavenly Sword Sect, and the crowd of green-clothed elders, also flew up in the air from all parts of the Heavenly Sword Sect and came behind the Patriarch.
Only the elders were puzzled, what did the Ancient Family want by coming so aggressively? They didn’t know about Lin Yun yet.
The two groups stood opposite each other in the air.
“Patriarch, my humble self, Gu Family Elder, Gu Tan.” The Gu Family’s leading elder, Gu Tan, opened his mouth, he stood with his head held high and with pride.
“Elder Gu Tan, you brought so many people and came to my Heavenly Sword Sect in an aggressive manner, I don’t know what you are up to.” The Patriarch said.
“Your Heavenly Sword Sect disciple, Lin Yun, is bold! Killing Gu Yu, the son of my Ancient Family’s Patriarch, how do you settle this score?!” The voice was loud and clear, carrying the meaning of accountability and questioning.
The elders behind the Patriarch were shocked when they heard this, they realised the purpose and reason why the Gu Family had come to the door after hearing this.
“This matter, this Patriarch has already learnt that it was your Gu Family, Gu Yu, who took the initiative to bring people to kill my sect’s disciple, Lin Yun, and as a result, he was killed in return. If it was because my sect’s disciple, Lin Yun, took the initiative to ambush and kill Gu Yu, that would be his fault, but this matter was caused by Gu Yu picking a fight in the first place, so it’s not my sect’s disciple, Lin Yun, who is to blame.” The Patriarch replied.
“I don’t care what’s going on, the result is, our Gu family’s young master was killed, and if you kill my Gu family’s young master, you have to pay the price! Restrict you, Heavenly Sword Sect, to hand over Lin Yun immediately and publicly apologise to my Gu Family before this matter can be put to rest!”
“Patriarch, you should know clearly what the consequences of being an enemy of my Gu family would be! Handing over someone will keep your Heavenly Sword Sect safe.”
Gu Tan’s voice was loud and resolute, without the slightest room for manoeuvre.
The Patriarch said without hesitation, “Elder Gu Tan, then I will also tell you clearly, people, there is no way my Heavenly Sword Sect can hand them over, what you, the Gu Family, want to do, just come, I, the Heavenly Sword Sect, am not a good person either!”
When Gu Tan and the people of the Gu Family heard this, their faces all changed.
Gu Tan didn’t expect that the Heavenly Sword Sect Patriarch would have such an attitude and be so resolute.
“Patriarch, you have to think clearly whether it’s worth it to make an enemy of my entire Gu Family for the sake of a single disciple! You should know that my Gu Family has lost a young master, and no matter what, I have to retrieve this, you, Heavenly Sword Sect, are you really prepared, to bear this price?” Gu Tan said in a cold voice.
“My attitude is already very clear, Lin Yun, my Heavenly Sword Sect will protect it, if your Gu Family really wants to attack my Heavenly Sword Sect, you must also consider the consequences! Beware of killing a thousand enemies and losing eight hundred of your own!” The patriarch said.
Although the Heavenly Sword Sect was not as powerful as the Ancient Family, it was not a soft persimmon either, the Ancient Family’s desire to eat the Heavenly Sword Sect in one bite was definitely not that easy!
Elder Gu Tan’s face had turned iron blue when he heard this.
He had thought that after such a big incident, the Heavenly Sword Sect should not dare to protect Lin Yun, after all, the one who had died was the son of the Ancient Family’s head.
He hadn’t thought that the Heavenly Sword Sect really wanted to completely turn their backs on the Ancient Family for the sake of Lin Yun?
“Patriarch, you …… have balls! Wait for the wrath of my Ancient Family to descend!”
“Let’s go!”
After Gutan’s words fell, he led the crowd away.
Gu Tan naturally knew that this number of people he had brought with him was not enough to attack the Heavenly Sword Sect, and that if he really wanted to attack the Heavenly Sword Sect, he would have to discuss with the Ancient Family’s Head of House and think long and hard about it.
After the people of the Ancient Family left.
“Patriarch, did Lin Yun really kill the son of the Ancient Family Head?” The elders inquired.
“That’s right, Elders, order it down, from today onwards, the Heavenly Sword Sect will enter a level one state of alert, ready to go to war at any time, all Elders will take turns to be on duty, and within a hundred mile radius, once a large army comes close, immediately turn on the Mountain Protection Formation.” The Patriarch said.
