Hearing Qin Shi's question, Feng Sha said 'good' three times and nodded, "Alright, good lad, I didn't misjudge you."
Bang!
While the two of them were conversing, the sound of a door being broken suddenly rang out. Yu Yue, Hao Yue and the other three squeezed into the room one after another. When Qin Shi turned his head to look at the four of them, he could more or less sense of unease from their faces.
"What's wrong?
All of you are pouting as if you've been wronged. "Qin Shi asked.
The four of them looked at each other. Haoyue let out a long sigh and said to the other three, "Let me explain."
Then, he took a step forward and said to Qin Shi with a solemn expression, "Shi Tou … your Clan's Altar of Rules has fallen in the sect. It's now in the central square."
"It's here?"
Qin Shi wasn't surprised to hear this news, but he didn't understand. Normally, after the Clan's Altar of Rules was summoned, the first thing to do would be to arrest Qin Shi. Why would it stay in the central square?
"It's that old man, Zhang Hun!
He seemed to have predicted that the Clan's Altar of Rules would appear, so he set up a formation in the central square and spread the news to the entire sect. He's purposely trying to embarrass you in front of the whole sect. "Yu Yue shouted angrily.
Qin Shi narrowed his eyes. This Zhang Hun was really scheming. It was secondary that he wanted to embarrass Qin Shi, but his main target was Fang Qing. After all, in Zhang Hun's eyes, the Clan's Altar of Rules was a dead man. Using this opportunity to knock Fang Qing down was undoubtedly killing two birds with one stone.
"This cunning old dog!"
Feng Sha patted Qin Shi and sneered, "Boy, since you've already called him an old dog, why bother with a dog?
If he wants to smash his own foot with a rock, then let him have his way. "
"En."
Qin Shi clapped his hands together. In any case, he wouldn't allow himself to be defeated in the Clan's Altar of Rules. After all, he still had a long way to go. Since Zhang Hun wanted to use this opportunity to humiliate him and Fang Qing, then he might as well play along.
"Since that old dog wants to play, I'll play with him."
Qin Shi's eyes turned cold. Suddenly, a trace of naughtiness that had not appeared for many years flashed across his eyes. However, under this naughtiness was not the innocence of a child, but a kind of suffocating coldness.
Xiu!
After that, his black robe flashed before his figure vanished from the room, and he descended directly towards the square at the center of the Sword Sect.
"This is going to be interesting."
Looking at the sky full of scars, Feng Sha stroked his beard and smiled. He then turned to Yu Yue and the others and said, "Let's go, I'll bring you there."
Yu Yue, Qing 'er, Haoyue, and Xu Qingfeng exchanged glances with each other before they extended their hands to Feng Sha. Feng Sha controlled the spiritual sword in his hand and it turned into a ray of golden light that flew away.
…
At this moment, a few hundred thousand disciples of the Sword Sect had gathered at the central square, and all of them had been attracted by the Sect Rules Altar at the center of the square.
In the center of the square, there was a sword formation made of 18 virtual swords. In the center of the sword formation, there was a huge chaotic black sword that was particularly dazzling.
Hiss!
"What a terrifying devouring force."
Even though they were a kilometer away from the sword formation, many disciples were still affected by the pressure of the huge black sword.
"Of course, that's the sword of the Supreme Elder, Zhang Hun. It's ranked 2nd amongst the 18 Sword Sect Protector Swords, the Devouring Flame Sword."
"According to legend, the Devouring Flame Sword can devour all flames in the world and transform it into a black hole to attack its surroundings. It's a spiritual sword that's only inferior to the Sky Destroyer Sword. All those years ago, Elder Zhang Hun relied on it to dominate the 8 regions."
"It's that powerful?"
Many disciples revealed looks of envy.
In the center of the sword formation was a floating sword-shaped altar. In the center of the altar was a cross made up of thousands of black chains. At the top of the cross was an illusory black hole. Above the black hole, there was a resounding and eye-catching character.
"Sin!"
The sword-shaped altar was the Sect Rules Altar.
Almost a million disciples of the Sword Sect held their breaths. Most of them had only heard about the Sect Rules Altar, but they'd never seen it with their own eyes.
It was the same even for disciples who had been in the sect for 1,000 years.
"This is the Sect Rules Altar?"
"Heavens, what a terrifying feeling. I heard that no one in our sect has ever come out alive after being punished by the Sect Rules Altar, right?"
"Yes, there hasn't been anyone until now. It's been almost 1,000 years since the last time the Sect Rules Altar descended. I didn't expect it to appear again.
Who is it? Does he want to die? "
"To be able to draw out the Sect Rules Altar, he must have a high status in the Sword Sect."
"Who could it be?"
Countless disciples guessed. However, just as they were feeling curious, an old figure descended from the sky and slowly landed on the Devouring Flame Sword. He stood with his hands behind his back. It was Zhang Hun.
"It's Elder Zhang Hun!"
"Haha, disciples, I'm sure you've all seen it. Another heinous bastard has appeared in our sect. His actions have angered all of our ancestors, and they've even used the Sect Rules Altar on him!"
"This disciple is the disciple who has just finished his seclusion!
Qin Shi! "
"W-what?"
The disciples' eyes widened. "This Sect Rules Altar is used to punish Qin Shi?"
"That can't be, right?
In that case, just how suicidal was this Qin Shi?
He just finished his seclusion and has a bright future ahead of him. How could he do such a thing? "
"I got it. I heard that Qin Shi fought with the four Mu Yu brothers yesterday and killed three of them. Only Li Feng was lucky enough to escape. That was why he managed to keep his life."
"What?
Three of the Four Elemental Brothers died? "
Shocking news spread one after another, and the name 'Qin Shi' became more and more bizarre. In the end, it was impossible to tell the truth from the lies.
After the altar appeared for a long time, Qin Shi's figure still hadn't appeared. This made Zhang Hun's face even more ferocious. "Haha, that brat doesn't dare to come?"
"Big Brother, are you sure we don't need to send someone to capture him?"
Shen Tianyang appeared behind Zhang Hun. "Now that the Sect Rules Altar is sealed here, as long as he leaves the sect before he is punished by the Sect Rules Altar, the Sect Rules Altar will lose its effect, and that brat will be able to live."
Zhang Hun waved at Shen Tianyang confidently. "No need. First, with that brat's personality, he will come. Second, even if he really doesn't come, it's not necessarily a bad thing for us."
"What do you mean?"
"If he leaves the Sword Sect, who do you think will suffer the most controversy?"
"You mean Fang Qing?"
"Yes, I want to see how she will explain to the millions of disciples in the Sword Sect." Zhang Hun's voice was rough, and there was no lack of anger in it.
Shen Tianyang slapped his forehead in realization. "That's right, why didn't I think of that? If that brat doesn't come, he will be a disciple in seclusion and will naturally become ownerless. In addition, Fang Qing will lose the support of the people because of the controversy. When that time comes, we can work together to push Su Yi to the top. Even Fang Qing won't be able to stop us, right?"
Zhang Hun's eyes flashed with pride as he nodded. From the moment he sent out the four Mu Yu brothers, he had already planned out several paths. No matter what happened, they wouldn't be able to escape his grasp.
"Now, it's up to him whether he comes to die or not." Zhang Hun laughed wildly.
"Zhang Hun!"
Fang Qing also arrived at the square at this time. She knew all of this and glared coldly at Zhang Hun.
"Sect Master?"
Zhang Hun was startled, and then he laughed sinisterly. He suddenly said respectfully, "Welcome, Sect Master. Sect Master has come at the right time. I hope Sect Master can uphold justice for our sect. Now that the Sect Rules Altar has fallen, but Qin Shi still hasn't come. Could it be that he wants to betray the sect?"
"You …!"
Zhang Hun's every word was aimed at Fang Qing, and she choked on her words.
"Hmph, old fart, don't talk nonsense. Who says I don't dare to come? I'm going to betray the sect. I'm here!" Qin Si landed in the middle of the square, still dressed in the same black robe, still walking with light steps.
Boom!
What!
In an instant, all the disciples' eyes widened.
"Qin, Qin Shi?"
"He really came?"
"Gulp … Heavens, does he know what the Sect Rules Altar means?
If he comes, he's simply going to die. "
Of course, among the surprised voices, there was no lack of fangirls shouting, "Wow!
He's so handsome, even when he's going to die. "
Qin Shi's appearance instantly attracted everyone's attention. Fang Qing and Zhang Hun's gazes focused on Qin Shi at the same time. However, when their gazes landed on Qin Shi, they felt completely different emotions. One was as warm as the morning sun, while the other was so ruthless that it made him feel pain.
"Qin Shi!"
Fang Qing exclaimed softly. Qin Shi turned his head slightly. He always felt a sense of closeness from Fang Qing, as if she was his mother. He could feel the worry in Fang Qing's eyes. After hesitating for a moment, he smiled freely.
Seeing that sunny smile, Fang Qing was also stunned, and then felt much more at ease.
"Kid, I didn't think you would really dare to come." Zhang Hun said to Qin Shi with interest.
"I have a clear conscience, why wouldn't I dare?" Qin Shi shrugged.
"What a clear conscience!"
Zhang Hun's old eyes suddenly burned, and he raised his voice, "Then let me ask you, who killed the Mu Yu brothers?"
"It was me, so what?
They deserved to die. "
Qin Shi's boldness shocked everyone. He didn't even quibble and just admitted it?
"Elder Zhang Hun, you heard it, he admitted it himself. He killed my brother and the others. You have to help me!"
Suddenly, a voice called out. Qin Shi glanced over and saw that it was Takeda who had escaped.
"Noisy!"
Qin Shi shook his head, and then his eyes turned cold. His body turned into a shadow, and he did something that shocked everyone present.
"I was just worried that I couldn't find you, and you came to me yourself."
In the next second, he suddenly appeared in front of Takeda, and then his palm quickly reached out, piercing through Takeda's chest and coming out from the back.
In the blink of an eye, Takeda was dumbfounded, and with a bang, he died on the square.
Boom!
