"Bang!"
With a loud noise, a disciple who was in charge of cleaning the Elder Cabinet flew out of the Elder Cabinet like a cannonball. Five streaks of fresh blood could be seen on his chest, and his ribs were clearly dented.
"Rumble!"
The younger brother flew out hundreds of meters and fell on the steps outside the Elder Cabinet.
Ling Xiao, Venerable Blood, and the others were shocked. They all went up to support the disciple. "What happened?"
"Cough cough … someone, someone attacked us!"
The disciple looked at Ling Xiao and shouted with his last breath. Then, he immediately fainted.
"Attacked?"
Ling Xiao and Venerable Blood looked at each other. A cold light flashed in their eyes at the same time. Then, they waved their sleeves and rushed into the Elder Cabinet.
After entering the Elder Cabinet, in the central hall of the Elder Cabinet, a middle-aged man sat on the Dragon Throne. He wore a brown dragon-scale armor and looked to be in his early forties. He had a stubble on his face and a buzz cut. He looked especially fierce.
In the hall, a few Qin Sect disciples were lying on the ground. These disciples all had five streaks of blood on their chests. It was obvious that they were injured by this person.
Seeing this, Ling Xiao was shocked. Two of the disciples had already reached the Spirit Breaking Realm, and they had been defeated by this person with a single blow?
Because of this, he glanced at the man on the Dragon Throne and said in a low voice, "Your Excellency, you came to the Qin Sect. Did the Qin Sect offend you in any way, or is there a misunderstanding?"
"Qin Sect?"
The man glanced at them from the Dragon Throne. A cold light flashed in his eyes. Then, he knocked on the dragon head of the Dragon Throne. "Hehe, I say, Sect Leader Ling Xiao, the Lihuo Sect that has existed for thousands of years has changed hands?
You're really promising! "
"You know me?"
Ling Xiao was surprised and was stunned.
"Hehe, I won't keep you in suspense. I'm the general of the empire, Guang Mo. The incident in the ancient city has alerted His Majesty. His Majesty specially sent me here to demand an explanation!" The man squinted his eyes with disdain.
General of the empire?
Ling Xiao, Venerable Blood, and the others trembled.
He's from the empire?
Isn't this background a little too powerful?
It was completely out of their imagination. No wonder he dared to barge into the sect alone.
Not to mention their tiny Qin Sect, even the northern region's largest Burning Sky Sect would have to give some face in front of the Empire, right?
"So it's General Guang Mo …"
Ling Xiao gripped his pants, trying his best to maintain his composure: "Then, I wonder, what kind of explanation does General Guang Mo want our Qin Sect to give?"
Venerable Lord Blood and the rest did not speak. Mo Chen and Elder Xun clenched their fists and cursed in their hearts. Why did they have to come when Qin Shi was not around …
Guang Mo knocked on the dragon's head with one hand, laughed, and snorted, "Hehe, the current you doesn't seem to have the qualifications to discuss with me. I heard that the current Sect Leader of the Qin Organization is called Qin Shi?
Call him here and let him talk to me! "
"…"
Ling Xiao and the rest clenched their fists at the same time.
However, they didn't move for a long time. They all knew about Qin Shi's current condition. With the severe injuries he had sustained just now, he probably wouldn't wake up for three to five days.
"What?
My words don't work? "
Seeing that Ling Xiao and the others didn't move, Guang Mo was instantly enraged. A wave of domineering spirit energy shot out, causing the entire Elder's Pavilion to tremble. The dragon's head on the throne exploded.
Just this spirit energy alone was enough to make Ling Xiao and the others retreat.
"Peak mid stage King Spirit Realm?"
Ling Xiao only managed to stabilize himself after taking a few steps back. This level wasn't something a mere Cryptic Spirit Realm cultivator like him could reach.
Perhaps in the entire Qin Organization, only Qin Shi and Pu Quan could resist it …
Ling Xiao cupped his hands and hurriedly flattered: "I'm sorry General Guang Mo, but Sect Leader Qin Shi is currently in closed door cultivation. We have no right to disturb him. I hope General Guang Mo can forgive us and wait in the sect for a few days. Our sect will definitely treat you warmly!"
"Closed door cultivation?"
Guang Mo frowned, his eyes suddenly narrowed. He exerted force in his palm and grabbed at the air towards Ling Xiao. Ling Xiao's old body was like a kite with a broken string. He coldly said: "I don't care if he's in closed door cultivation or not. If I don't see Qin Shi within a day, you can all wait for the sect to be sealed!"
Bang!
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a flash of blood in his palm. Ling Xiao's body was abruptly sent flying for nearly a hundred meters before crashing into the door frame of the Elder's Pavilion. He spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Ling Xiao!
Elder Ling Xiao! "
Venerable Blood, Mo Chen, and the others all exclaimed. Shao Yang and the other juniors all rushed up to support Ling Xiao.
"Hmph, you've really gone too far!"
Venerable Blood bared his teeth as a bloody aura surged up along his robe. He suddenly turned his head and stared at Guang Mo. He stood up and stretched out his five fingers, grabbing at Guang Mo.
"Venerable Blood, don't!"
Ling Xiao's pupils shrank as he was helped up.
Looking at the approaching Venerable Blood, Guang Mo ridiculed: "Hehe, you want to attack me?
You better think this through. If you attack me, it's equivalent to your Qin Sect declaring war on the empire. Can you really bear the consequences? "
Hearing this, the speeding Venerable Blood's body stiffened. His expression was so cold that it seemed as if ice could form on it. However, one of his legs floated in the air, not daring to take another step forward.
Declaring war on the empire?
Guang Mo was right. Could they withstand the empire's revenge?
The empire was truly an unshakable colossus in front of them. Offending the empire would only lead to death.
"Hehe, that's right. One must know one's own limits."
Looking at the stiff Venerable Blood, Guang Mo nodded in satisfaction. Shortly after, he slowly stood up. His body flashed, leaving behind an afterimage. Like a ghost, he appeared beside Venerable Blood.
Bang!
In the next second, Venerable Blood's chest contorted. His entire face had changed shape. He was hit by Guang Mo's palm, and his entire body was sent flying hundreds of meters away. He slammed into the wall, shattering it into pieces.
"However, just because you didn't attack me doesn't mean that I won't attack you!" Guang Mo arrogantly raised his head as he walked towards Venerable Blood's side.
Walking forward, he grabbed Venerable Blood's red hair with one hand and raised his other hand high up in the air. An unruly Spiritual Energy pulsed in his palm, forming a halo that resembled a huge wave. Immediately after, he slammed it down on Venerable Blood's face. "A dog that bites randomly should be slapped to death like this!"
"Venerable Blood!
Elder Venerable Blood! "
Mo Chen and the others widened their eyes at the same time. Ling Xiao climbed up, wanting to stop him, but he didn't have the slightest bit of strength to do so.
"No!!!" Everyone roared out in shock.
Venerable Blood's black eyes narrowed. His red hair fluttered under the Spiritual Pressure, and an aura of death spread throughout his body, causing him to bite his lower lip unwillingly: "Is it over …"
"This life, is it going to end just like this … Little fellow, looks like I have no hope of seeing you grow …"
Under this kind of wild, dragon-like power, no one present could stop it. Venerable Blood could only helplessly slowly close his eyes.
Whoosh!
However, at this moment, a scarlet flame swept past the outside of the main hall.
The flame was like a sharp arrow. After sweeping up a wild whirlwind, it pierced towards Guang Mo with a whistling sound.
When the flame neared, Guang Mo's brows furrowed. The power within the flame was very strong, and even he had to take it seriously. If not for this, he would have quickly retracted his palm and collided with the flame.
Boom!
When the two pure energies collided, the hall trembled with a loud bang. A few of the roof beams above them shattered and exploded, causing stone fragments to scatter in the air.
"Who?
How dare you attack me? How dare you?! "
Guang Mo swung his arm, and a wisp of spiritual power turned into a gust of wind. Once it blew away the dust and sand, he looked towards the outside of the main hall with a murderous gaze.
Ling Xiao and the others were shocked, and they looked towards the door with disdain.
Outside the main hall, there were four people slowly walking up the stairs. There were two men and two women, and they were not unfamiliar with them. They were Su Ming, Qin Shang, Yin Mo, and … Shi Lan!
When they saw the four people, everyone was stunned.
Ling Xiao even let out a few dry coughs in panic, then shouted at the four people, "What are you doing?
Do you know who he is?
Attack him, and Qin Sect will be destroyed! "
"Destroyed?
Haha, with just him? "
Su Ming was stunned. He looked at Guang Mo and let out a cold laugh. He lifted his finger and beckoned at Guang Mo, then laughed coldly. "I'd like to know, just where did this old bald donkey come from? How dare he cause trouble in Qin Sect?
Don't you know I have people above me? "
Ling Xiao and the others' mouths fell open. Guang Mo's face turned cold.
"Haha, boy, do you know who I am?"
When he heard Su Ming's words, Guang Mo was also stunned. As a general of the empire, it had been a long time since someone dared to speak to him like this.
"Who are you?
Do you have anything to do with me?
I never deal with dogs. "
Su Ming's lips curled up, and he pointed at Guang Mo's nose and scolded, "Hurry up and leave, or else I'll use my Dog Beating Staff Technique!"
Once he said that, Ling Xiao and the other elders' faces turned livid. The two sisters, Liu Qing and Liu Lan, quickly rushed forward and tugged at Su Ming, telling him not to make a sound.
But Su Ming didn't listen to them, and continued scolding.
Guang Mo's face became darker, and he finally couldn't take it anymore. He clenched his fist and said, "Haha, looks like your stupid Qin Sect really doesn't want to stay in the Crimson Flame Empire anymore. How dare you provoke a general of the empire!"
Once he finished speaking, Guang Mo stretched out his palm, and a wave of spiritual power spread towards Su Ming.
Whoosh!
But at that moment, a beautiful figure moved forward, and her long golden brown hair blocked Su Ming's path. Shi Lan smiled at Guang Mo. "Haha, general, I suggest you look at what you have in your hand before you decide whether you want to attack or not."
"Hmm?"
Guang Mo was stunned, and he couldn't help but tighten his spiritual power. He lowered his head and looked at his palm. In his hand was the crimson flame that had just charged towards him.
This flame was a plate, and there was a powerful "Burn" carved on top of it.
When he saw this plate, Guang Mo couldn't help but be stunned.
Ling Xiao and the others blinked in shock, and couldn't help but cry out, "Burning Sky Execution Order?"
Su Ming, Qin Shang, and Yin Mo gasped in amazement. They were not unfamiliar with this Burning Heaven Execution Order. When they were still in Burning Sky Secret Realm, it was precisely this Burning Heaven Execution Order that caused Qin Shi to be chased out of the sect, and it was also because of this Burning Heaven Execution Order that caused them to be separated for three months.
"You're from the Burning Sky Sect?"
