Chapter 1852: A Grand Gesture
When Li Changting’s gaze fell upon Elder Meng, his heart couldn’t help but skip a beat!
However, Li Changting didn’t say anything and instead looked at the two elders of Liyun Sect!
"I am fully aware of the causes and consequences of this matter. I can tell you clearly, it’s absolutely impossible for us to hand over Su Chen!"
Li Changting stated firmly, leaving no room for negotiation!
Ever since Zhuo Songyan reported the situation to him that day, he had known about Su Chen killing Huangfu Nan, and he was worried about it!
But unexpectedly, he soon killed the Fourth Prince!
One wave had just settled, and another arose!
Originally, he wanted to handle the matter of the Fourth Prince first before dealing with an even thornier issue!
Unexpectedly, the people from Liyun Sect came so quickly!
It shows how furious Liyun Sect is!
"Then there’s nothing more to say!"
The elder of Liyun Sect snorted, and a terrifying aura spread around him!
"I’ll handle the one on the right. You all work together to hold off the other!"
Li Changting instructed in a low voice.
His expression was extremely grave, as he could see that one of the elders from Liyun Sect had recently entered Divine Sea Realm Second Turn!
The other was similar to himself, not far from Divine Sea Realm Third Turn!
He could probably deal with the one close to Divine Sea Realm Third Turn, but the others would feel pressured facing the one in Divine Sea Realm Second Turn!
"Okay!"
The veteran elders nodded.
"Take these weapons!"
With that, Li Changting took out four swords.
"True Artifacts?!"
As soon as Elder Gu and the others saw these swords, their eyes lit up with disbelief written all over their faces!
Where did the dean get True Artifacts?
And to take out four at once!
Such a lavish display!
With these True Artifacts, their confidence soared considerably!
They didn’t know that these four True Artifacts were extorted by Li Changting from Su Chen.
Originally, he should have told them about this, especially since they were senior elders!
But recently, due to the tumultuous events surrounding Su Chen, Li Changting hadn’t had the chance to mention it, only Zhuo Songyan vaguely guessed a bit!
Monarch Ning Yuanchang was also envious upon seeing these four True Artifacts, knowing that the entire royal family only had one True Artifacts sword!
Where did Li Changting get these four True Artifacts from?
"True Artifacts, huh?"
One of the elders from Liyun Sect took out a knife. As the sheath came off, it gleamed more brilliantly than people!
It was actually a True Artifact as well!
The other elder also took out a sword, which was likewise a True Artifact!
Li Changting and Ning Yuanchang, along with others, were all shocked beyond belief!
Liyun Sect was indeed extraordinary!
The students were also extremely nervous, as the scales had tipped several times without yet exchanging blows!
Li Changting and Ning Yuanchang pondered inwardly; is Liyun Sect so powerful that True Artifacts are as common as cabbages?
What they didn’t know was that True Artifacts at Liyun Sect were also considered extremely precious treasures!
It was only because of the Young Sect Master’s death that the Sect Master of Liyun Sect granted each of the two a True Artifact to prevent any mishaps!
The two elders also coveted the True Artifacts brought out by Li Changting, wishing they could seize them immediately!
"Attack!"
Li Changting shouted loudly, immediately moving to attack one of the elders!
Before the words had settled, Elder Gu and the others also charged at the other elder!
The cultivation of these people was extremely profound, and having True Artifacts in hand, their power was unimaginable!
For an instant, the entire area seemed on the verge of apocalypse, with wind and cloud surging. The students had long retreated far away!
Such level of combat was something they couldn’t withstand at all!
Of course, neither the two elders nor Li Changting and others could ignore Ning Yuanchang and the others!
If they joined in, it would have a massive impact, potentially decisive!
Thankfully, for now, Ning Yuanchang seemed not to intend to intervene!
...
Meanwhile, Su Chen had reached the final critical point of his breakthrough!
Initially, he alternated among his cultivation realm, Stellar Power, and comprehending the "Thousand Hand Seal". But suddenly, he felt on the brink of a breakthrough, so in the past few days, he took two pills, continually cultivating his realm!
Suddenly, True Yuan surged within him like a raging river, a powerful True Essence Aura!
He knew this was a sign of imminent breakthrough!
Immediately, he quickened the operation of the "Nine Yang Divine Technique". After a while, the river of True Yuan finally began to calm down, flowing within him...
Gradually, he opened his eyes, a smile spreading across his face!
He had finally broken through to Cave Void Realm Third Turn!
Before entering the Secret Realm, he was about to break through Cave Void Realm Second Turn, and in the Secret Realm, he reached the Second Turn. Now he’s advanced yet another level!
He felt that his true cultivation now was comparable to the First Turn of Tongxuan Realm!
In some ways, it could be considered a new level!
"Stop celebrating, something’s happened at Zhaixing Academy!"
At that moment, Zi Mei’s voice suddenly sounded!
Su Chen froze upon hearing this!
He had been completely focused during the critical moment of the breakthrough, paying no attention to anything else!
Quickly, he released his Divine Sense, and his expression changed drastically!
.......
In the battle between Martial Artists, ultimately strength is the foundation!
Though Elder Gu and his team had the advantage of numbers, there was still a gap between them and that elder!
At the level of Divine Sea Realm, even the difference of one turn is enormous!
This disparity was all-encompassing, including the thickness of True Yuan, speed, and more!
Even in terms of Martial Techniques, truth be told, Zhaixing Academy couldn’t compare to Liyun Sect!
"Pfft!"
Zhuo Songyan was the first to be blasted away by the opponent, not with a sword, but simply a punch!
That punch landed on him, akin to a massive boulder weighing thousands of pounds, sending him flying backward like a broken kite!
This sudden development made the situation even more perilous!
After all, on their side, an elder was already severely injured, barely holding on, and now with Zhuo Songyan injured, the strength relied mainly on Elder Gu and Elder Meng!
Then, the elder from Liyun Sect seemed to be deliberately toying with the two, akin to a cat playing with mice, making them utterly embarrassed!
On the other side, Li Changting could see it but was anxious, unable to help!
He was already at a struggle facing the elder close to Divine Sea Realm Third Turn on his own, having no means to aid them!
As for Monarch Ning Yuanchang, because of Su Chen’s affair, he was already doing well not to hit them when they’re down, with no expectation for him to assist!
The other ordinary elders wanting to help were immediately shouted down!
Because it wouldn’t be useful, only sending them to their deaths!
