âLord Sectmaster, I saw that you havenât returned yet and was worried that you wouldnât make it in time for the negotiation. Fortunately, Yue Ling got acquainted with a master who possesses great capabilities, so I told her to invite him over,â Yue Lingâs master explained.
âA master who possesses great capabilities? How hilarious. How formidable can the people who reside in this backward place be? Whereâs the master you speak of? Why donât I see him anywhere? It canât be that he has run away after seeing us?â the two masters mocked.
The face of Yue Lingâs master turned awkward whereas Yue Ling frowned in displeasure. However, she couldnât say anything because these two masters were invited here by the sectmaster.
âIs that person not here yet? Why donât I see him around?â the World Spiritist Techniques Sectâs sectmaster asked.
âLord Sectmaster, my benefactor is already here, but it isnât convenient for him to show himself due to some reasons,â Yue Ling explained.
âNot convenient to show himself? Hah, he must have been snooping around so much that he dares not to show himself. Are you sure he isnât a fraud?â the two masters sneered.
They turned to the World Spiritist Techniques Sectâs sectmaster and said, âNameless Sectâs sectmaster, your elder and disciple donât seem to be too intelligent.â
âYouâre saying that Iâm a fraud because I donât show myself? Know your own place. The likes of you arenât qualified to meet me,â Chu Feng sneered.
He had already checked the two masters and confirmed that they were at rank nine Dragon Transformation Sensation, which meant that their spirit power was at the same level as his. Even without their help, he could deal with the Nine Level Pavilion all on his own. Thus, he didnât mind offending the two of them.
âWhat arrogant words. Do you know who we are?â
The faces of the two masters turned cold. They didnât think that there would be someone here who dared disrespect them.
âYou want to give it a go?â Chu Feng replied.
âYouâre challenging us? Hah, who do you think you are to challenge us? You arenât worth our time!â the two masters scoffed.
It was not that they were afraid of Chu Feng but that they saw it as an insult to cross blows with him. The two of them were from a higher realm, which was no wonder why they looked down on the natives of this realm. In their view, everyone here was no different from ants.
âNameless Sectâs sectmaster, what do you mean by this? Why did you invite the two of us here if you already have another helper? You should know that itâs beneath us to ally ourselves with such trash. You can tell us straight if you donât need our help; weâll leave right away. However, you are the one who went against our promise, so we wonât refund your deposit. Instead, you have to compensate us,â one of the masters said.
He was exerting pressure on the sectmaster.
âMasters, please donât misunderstand! I was unaware of this matter.â
The Nameless Sectâs sectmaster sweated profusely upon hearing that they were about to leave. He turned to Yue Ling and her master, and his subservient face immediately flared with rage.
âYue Ling, Fang Tong, look at what you have done! Hurry up and leave with whomever you have brought here. You need not interfere with this matter anymore.â
Yue Ling was infuriated to hear those words, but she wasnât in a good position to say anything to the sectmaster. Thus, she sent a voice transmission to Chu Feng and apologized to him.
On the other hand, the face of Yue Lingâs master paled in fright.
It was one thing for their sectmaster to berate them, but to his horror, he was treating Chu Feng the same way too. Clearly, their sectmaster had no idea who he was trifling with.
Chu Feng was someone who dared to even kill the Situ World Spiritist Clansmen!
âLord Sectmaster, weâll leave right now, but you shouldnât say anything else. The person Yue Ling invited is not to be trifled with. Heâs not a figure we can afford to offend,â Yue Lingâs master reminded the sectmaster via voice transmission.
He couldnât explain everything in depth in order to keep Chu Fengâs identity confidential.
âFang Tong, are you looking down on our Nameless Sect here? I know that our Nameless Sect has fallen into decline, or else the Nine Levels Pavilion wouldnât dare to climb over our head. However, now that I have the two masters here with me, no one will dare to mess with us anymore. The three of you should quickly leave,â the sectmaster replied out loud, completely disregarding the reminder from Yue Lingâs master.
The others could immediately tell that Yue Lingâs master had sent a reminder to the sectmaster, only for the latter to berate him.
âIâm really sorry, benefactor. I shouldnât have called you here,â Yue Ling apologized profusely.
Her voice was a little choked-up, and she even started sobbing.
âSilly girl, what does this have to do with you? I came here not for the World Spiritist Techniques Sect but you. It doesnât matter to me what others say. Of course, the only reason your sectmaster is still alive right now is on your account too. As for those two so-called masters, hehâ¦â
Chu Feng had always looked down on those who oppressed the weak. Those two masters looked down on everyone else just because they were from a Lower Realm.
He was only turning a blind eye to their transgression now on Yue Lingâs account, but he would teach them a lesson once everything was over.
âHoh, whatâs going on with the Nameless Sect? Are you having an internal conflict?â a voice suddenly sounded from afar.
A grand army consisting of a million blue-robed cultivators flew over. They were from the Nine Levels Pavilion.
At the forefront of the army was an elder riding a war chariot. He had a fierce appearance, and he openly flaunted his rank eight Martial Exalted level cultivation as if he was worried that others wouldnât know how powerful he was.
He was the Nine Levels Pavilionâs sectmaster, as well as the person who spoke earlier.
There were also other elders on the war chariot. They were all fairly powerful, with the weakest of them being at Martial Exalted level. Their robes indicated that they were from other powers.
Chu Feng noticed that the faces of World Spiritist Techniques Sectâs sectmaster and Yue Lingâs master darkened upon seeing the elders from the other powers riding on the same war chariot as the Nine Levels Pavilionâs war chariot.
Most likely, they were from the witnessing powers.
As witnesses, they were supposed to take a neutral position, but the fact that they had come with the Nine Levels Pavilion showed that they were colluding with each other. This wasnât going to be a fair negotiation at all.
âThey have been bribed by the Nine Levels Pavilion. Hmph, good thing I came prepared, or else I would be done in by them,â the World Spiritist Techniques Sectâs sectmaster murmured.
He knew that others could hear his words even though he was speaking in a soft voice, but he did it on purpose to let them know that he wasnât afraid even if they were colluding with each other. He was confident that the two masters he had hired would be able to deal with them.
