Chapter 51: Chapter 51 - Dominator Shen Yuanzhe
Seeing that Shen Yuanzhu was visibly irritated, the two dared not argue any longer. They lowered their heads and responded respectfully, "Yes, Holy Lord."
Observing the two who seemed like children caught in a mistake before him, Shen Yuanzhu gave a slight smile and decided to tease Tang Louye: "Elder Tang, since you are so eager to destroy the Shura Palace, why don't I send you to carry out this mission?"
"Holy Lord, that's…" Tang Louye, upon hearing this, couldn't help but feel a bit embarrassed.
At the same time, he cursed inwardly: 'If I had the strength to destroy the Shura Palace, I wouldn't need to fear the Shura Palace.'
Seeing Tang Louye's aging face turned red with embarrassment, Shen Yuanzhu smiled and continued, "I'm just joking with you."
"Even I'm not sure if I can destroy the Shura Palace on my own."
When they heard these words from the Holy Lord, all the elders, including Tang Louye and Xu Canghai, looked at the Holy Lord in shock.
The Holy Lord is a powerful 3-Star Saint King, yet he says he's not capable of completely destroying the Shura Palace
Even Xu Canghai began to rethink his previous assertion after hearing this statement from the Holy Lord.
Seeing everyone's reactions, Shen Yuanzhu gave a bitter smile.
He wasn't lying.
According to his investigations, the person who destroyed the Celestial Sword Sect must be only slightly weaker than him. After all, even he would struggle to handle a Chu Yifan who used a pill to break into the Saint King realm with a high-grade sacred artifact.
As for the rumors about He Xianglan's death, Shen Yuanzhu had them investigated but found little information.
However, he doesn't believe that the person who destroyed the Celestial Sword Sect was able to kill He Xianglan, let alone so quickly. It's said that Shi Hu didn't stay out for even 30 minutes!
If that were true, he would fear that he might not be a match for Shi Hu.
But since he didn't believe this was possible, the reason he claimed he might not be able to handle the Shura Palace is because the person who dealt with the Celestial Sword Sect is likely just a subordinate of the Shura Palace Master.
He would need to use almost all his strength to handle a mere subordinate. If facing the Shura Palace Master, Shen Yuanzhu doesn't think he would be able to defeat him.
Of course, if the ancestors decided to come out of seclusion to destroy the Shura Palace, Shen Yuanzhu wouldn't find it difficult to destroy a mere Shura Palace, but this assumes knowing its location.
And more importantly, if the Black Tortoise Sacred Land holds a significant grudge against the Shura Palace, otherwise, he would probably only be punished for disturbing the ancestors.
"But the chaos that the Shura Palace is causing is somewhat problematic indeed," Shen Yuanzhu said lightly.
"After all, it's not good for the geniuses to be killed before the Eastern Region Genius Competition," he added with a sense of justice, and thought to himself: 'After all, the more geniuses participate, the greater the chance of obtaining that inheritance.'
Thinking about this, Shen Yuanzhu gave a commanding order: "Send a message to the Shura Palace and tell them not to accept assassination missions until the Genius Competition!"
"Yes, Holy Lord," the elders present responded respectfully.
As soon as Tang Louye heard this, he couldn't help but smile unconsciously but he thought of something and asked, "What if the Shura Palace does not accept the decree?"
"If they don't accept? There's no reason for a force that doesn't even show this little bit of respect to our Sacred Land in the Eastern Region to exist!" Shen Yuanzhu said with a domineering tone.
And this time, Shen Yuanzhu was not exaggerating.
The Eastern Region Genius Competition is very important even to the ancestors, and if the Shura Palace continues to assassinate geniuses, it won't be impossible for the ancestors to take action and destroy the Shura Palace once and for all.
At the same time...
Super Sect Qiankun
At the gate of the Qiankun Sect, one of the three super sects and one of the eleven major powers in the eastern region, a young man in tattered clothes, as if he had just come from a fight, appeared in front of the gate. This immediately alarmed the disciples who were guarding the gate, who shouted:
"Stop! Identify yourself before entering the Qiankun Sect!"
The young man merely looked at the disciples guarding the gate, and they felt a chill, as that gaze was terrifyingly deep and carried a breath of death!
"You..." The guards looked at the young man in fear and took several steps back, but then they remembered where they were and regained their confidence.
After all, this was the gate of the Qiankun Super Sect. Who would dare to act presumptuously here?
"Don't make me repeat myself; identify yourself or we will attack," said the guards.
The young man merely looked at them and murmured, "The Qiankun Super Sect, worthy of being one of the three super sects. Even the guards are at the peak of spiritual transformation."
As he spoke, he took something out of a special ring.
This movement startled the guards, who thought the young man was about to act. Just as they were about to attack, they saw that what the young man took out was not a weapon but a token.
The Qiankun Super Sect Recruitment Token!
This is a token that only high-ranking elders of the sect can possess, and the number created is extremely low.
Those who hold this token can bypass the recruitment phase of the Qiankun Sect and enter directly, without tests!
Only those favored by the sect's high-ranking elders are worthy of possessing this token.
Thinking of this, the cautious expressions of the gate guards quickly turned into flattery, and they said, "Young Master, please allow me to show you the way," while indicating the path.
No joke, someone worthy of such a token either has terrifying talent noticed by the sect's elders or has very strong connections with the sect's elders.
Either way, it is not something mere external disciples like them can afford to offend.
Fang Yu saw the change in the disciples' attitude and smiled slightly to himself as he followed them.
At the same time, he looked at the majestic mountain of the Qiankun Super Sect and thought about the girl and the only person he cared about who was still alive: "Yulin, I've finally arrived at the Qiankun Sect."
