Chapter 731 - 757 Impossible to Apologize
Chapter 731: Chapter 757: Impossible to Apologize Chapter 731: Chapter 757: Impossible to Apologize “`
Sea of Void, outside Hidden Heaven Island.
Chu Yuan stood on the Immortal Sword with his hands behind his back, his body shrouded in Divine Light that flashed, enveloping his entire figure and making it difficult for others to discern his true face.
In front of him.
Ye Luo held the Golden Divine Sword, guarding in front of Chu Yuan.
On their opposing side.
An elderly figure in a loose Dragon Robe with Dragon Horns atop his head stood.
This elder stood there, his invisible aura naturally radiated out.
...
In terms of aura, the elder directly suppressed Ye Luo.
Clearly, this elder was an existence that surpassed even the Immortal Emperors.
A Da Luo existence!
This elder was the Old Ancestor of the Zhenlong Clan.
Considering that the Zhenlong Clan had been slaughtered right at their doorstep, it would have been strange if the Old Ancestor had not shown up.
“Taiyi Sword Honor, aren’t you going too far?”
The Zhenlong Old Ancestor, expressionless, looked at Ye Luo, his hands trembling uncontrollably beneath the wide sleeves.
That tremble was out of rage.
If he wasn’t angry after being humiliated like this, that would have been odd.
“Too far? Who has gone too far? My Respected Master and I wished to enter Hidden Heaven Island when your youngsters rashly came out to obstruct us and collided with my Master. I haven’t sought retribution from you for that, which is already merciful, and yet you dare to bark here?”
Ye Luo looked coldly at the other party, without a trace of fear.
He felt that, with the Golden Divine Sword in hand, challenging a Da Luo existence was not a problem at all.
The Zhenlong Old Ancestor on the other side was almost amused by anger.
A bunch of their youngsters had been killed.
And this Taiyi Sword Honor was talking about seeking retribution from them?
Was it possible that their Zhenlong Clan members were slaughtered, yet they were supposed to apologize and offer reparations?
This must be a joke.
His Zhenlong Clan, how exalted and proud they are?
Even if they were to fight to the last dragon, they would never even consider apologizing.
Such a thing was impossible!
Just as the Zhenlong Old Ancestor was about to take action and teach Ye Luo a lesson, an unexpected twist occurred.
Screech!!!
An ear-piercing cry rang out.
Around the distance, a giant sun flew over.
That was a Three-legged Golden Crow.
The Golden Crow sped over from afar, its speed so fast it was staggering.
Just in the blink of an eye, the Three-legged Golden Crow had already arrived near Hidden Heaven Island.
Ye Luo tensed up, thinking this Three-legged Golden Crow was coming to their aid.
Unexpectedly.
The Three-legged Golden Crow did not head towards Ye Luo and Chu Yuan.
Instead, it rushed towards the Zhenlong Old Ancestor.
Approaching in a straight line and coming to the side of the Zhenlong Old Ancestor, the Three-legged Golden Crow transformed into a middle-aged man.
In the hands of this middle-aged man were held an Imperial Decree, presented to the Zhenlong Old Ancestor.
“The Decree of the Golden Crow Demon Emperor is here, Elder Ao of the Zhenlong Clan, receive the decree.”
The middle-aged man spoke thus.
The Zhenlong Old Ancestor paused for a moment, then took the decree from the hands of the middle-aged man and started reading it.
After carefully scanning it once, he suddenly became stiff.
This…
The decree isn’t mistaken?
Surprised, the Zhenlong Old Ancestor looked up at the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man, with a look of helplessness, nodded.
“This…”
The Zhenlong Old Ancestor didn’t know what to say.
He looked down at the decree in his hand.
“`
On the Imperial Decree, the Demon Emperor of the Jinwu Clan had relayed some matters to him…
Among these, the clearest directive was for the various Great Demon clans to avoid offending Taiyi Sword Honor and his fellow disciples; ideally, no one associated with Taiyi Sword Honor should be offended at all.
The reason given was that the Respected Master of Taiyi Sword Honor was a ‘Saint’, and very likely one that even the undying elders who preside behind the Demon Race might not be able to outmatch.
Upon learning this, a chill ran down the spine of the Elder of the Zhenlong Clan.
Just now, what had Taiyi Sword Honor said?
Did he say that the younger generation of his family who had died had offended the Respected Master of Taiyi Sword Honor?
The Respected Master of Taiyi Sword Honor…
The ‘Saint’ mentioned in the Imperial Decree?
“What’s with that look on your face?”
The middle-aged man was still puzzled and involuntarily asked in a low voice.
“Well, have you, have you ever seen a living Saint?”
The Elder of the Zhenlong Clan managed a forced smile with his rigid face, speaking quite awkwardly.
“A living Saint? How could one possibly see that? It’s rare enough to see a Da Luo, let alone Saints for us to witness?”
“Do you want to meet a living Saint?”
“Of course, I do, it would be an immense honor to see a living Saint.”
“But what if meeting a living Saint meant potentially offending a living Saint, would you still be willing?”
“Of course, Elder Ao, haven’t you heard the saying, ‘If I can reach the Way in the morning, I can die content in the evening’?”
“Well, turn around and take a look, the one standing on the Immortal Sword is a living Saint.”
“…”
The two of them went back and forth like this.
Suddenly, the middle-aged man seemed to realize something and turned to look at Chu Yuan, who stood on the Immortal Sword, radiating Divine Light.
After a glance, he quickly turned his head back to the Elder of the Zhenlong Clan.
“You’re not joking with me?”
At this point, the middle-aged man looked almost tearful.
“I’m not joking with you, I’ve just learned that the Respected Master of Taiyi Sword Honor is that one, and that one is a living Saint. How about it, you can die satisfied now, right?”
The Elder of the Zhenlong Clan took a deep breath and spoke slowly.
He was also casting wary glances at Chu Yuan.
The middle-aged man was utterly shocked; he had the urge to strangle the Elder of the Zhenlong Clan.
There’s a limit to setting people up.
Being set up like this could cost a life.
“Unaware of the Holy Venerable’s presence, this junior meant no offense, please forgive me, Holy Venerable!!”
The middle-aged man immediately knelt in the void, facing Chu Yuan, and performed the standard grand salutation.
Seeing this scene, the Elder of the Zhenlong Clan was momentarily flustered; after all, he was from the Jinwu Clan, and this seemed utterly shameless.
However, since someone had taken the lead, he had no reason to feel embarrassed anymore.
“This little dragon was unaware of the Holy Venerable’s presence and has offended the Holy Venerable! Please, Holy Venerable, quell your wrath! This little dragon is willing to apologize and make amends to calm your anger!”
The Elder of the Zhenlong Clan also knelt down and pleaded repeatedly.
He was afraid that if he were a moment too late, Chu Yuan might extinguish him with just a glance.
…
On the other side, Chu Yuan watched this scene, somewhat unable to react.
Ye Luo, on the other hand, was quick to respond.
“Respected Master, these two people must have received some information, knowing about your previous slaying of a Da Luo and the incident where you put the Palace Master of Shangqing Palace in his place.”
A faint smile crossed Ye Luo’s eyes as he grasped the situation.
With a moment’s thought.
Since his Respected Master was establishing a doctrine, he would undoubtedly need many things; here were two ready-made resource troves.
Wasn’t this the perfect time to fleece some wool?
“Respected Master, please wait for me, I’ll deal with these two.”
Ye Luo turned to his Respected Master and spoke.
Chu Yuan simply nodded his head nonchalantly, indifferent to any concerns.
Witnessing this.
Only then did Ye Luo feel assured and, after saluting Chu Yuan, flew towards the Elder of the Zhenlong Clan and the middle-aged man…
