Chapter 108: The Ancient Sect! Conflict!
Hearing such rude words, the faces of the Supreme Purity Sect and the others changed. “We were the first ones here.”
They did not expect that such a small sect would dare to refute them. The people of the Ancient Sect showed an impatient look. “So what if you came here first? It’s okay to take your positions. Don’t be so shameless.”
These small sects did not have the strength and would not have a spot at all. They were probably here to watch the show. In the eyes of the Ancient Sect, they were like ants and did not need to be polite to them.
The people from the Supreme Purity Sect did not look good. One of the disciples said indignantly, “Aren’t you being a bit too overbearing? This is not the territory of your Ancient Sect–”
Before he could finish his words, the eyes of the people of the Ancient Sect had already revealed some killing intent. They were actually provoked by such a small sect in public.
“You’re courting death!”
Accompanied by a beast roar, a tall Snow Beast rushed over. From afar, it looked like a small snow mountain moving. It opened its bloody mouth, and its sharp fangs flickered with a cold light.
The King-levelSnow Beast had the strength of the Dragon Transformation stage. In addition to their special characteristics, they might even have reached the peak level. The disciples of the Supreme Purity Sect could not stop it at all. Only Wu Huaqing had the strength to fight it.
However, the incident happened too suddenly. Coupled with the speed of the Snow Beast, it left many afterimages in the air, carrying the power of thunder, wind, and snow. It was going to crush that disciple.
Some timid people had already moved their eyes away, unable to bear to see the scene of his head being chopped off.
Even the disciple was scared silly. He stood rooted to the ground, unable to move under the powerful pressure. He could only watch helplessly as the bloody mouth closed in on him. He subconsciously closed his eyes, but he did not hear the pain in the scene.
Roar!
Only a tragic beast roar was heard.
Everyone did not know what had happened. The tall figure of the Snow Beast fell with a loud crash. Fresh blood immediately dyed the ground red. There was a huge hole in its heart, and there was a sharp icicle on it.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. To be able to use an icicle to instantly kill a Dragon Transformation stage Snow Beast, it showed that this person’s strength was not to be underestimated.
The people from the Ancient Sect had gloomy expressions as one of them said, “You actually dare to Kill my Snow Beast?”
It was not difficult to capture ordinary Snow Beasts, but these King-level Snow Beasts were extremely rare and precious. They only appeared once in a hundred Snow Beast. Even the Ancient Sect only had a dozen of them.
They had just met each other, and this King-level Snow Beast was instantly killed. It was like a slap on their faces.
Gu Xi stood with his hands behind his back and said calmly, “All of you let animals kill people just because you’re upset. Why wouldn’t I do something about it?”
The Ancient Sect was famous in the Capital. Although the members of the sect rarely showed themselves in front of others, everyone knew of their names. No one had ever dared to speak to them in such a way.
In addition to their own strength, no one dared to offend them. Even the other great sects had to give them some face.
Now, the people of this small sect dared to provoke them and even kill their Snow Beasts, they were undoubtedly trampling on the face of the Ancient Sect.
“This Gu Xi is really bold. He actually dares to directly confront the people of the Ancient Sect.”
The people of the Ancient Sect heard the discussion by their side and frowned. “You are the Gu Xi who has continuously shone in the alchemy and weapon refining competitions?”
“Don’t think that just because you won two competitions and have the appreciation and favor of the Alchemy Emperor, and then refined a Divine Sword, you can do whatever you want. The Capital is not a place where you can speak as you please.”
One should never underestimate the strength of the Ancient Sect. Their foundation was never something that the common people could imagine. From these few sentences, it could be seen that the Ancient Sect was looking down on Gu Xi.
Perhaps they had once wanted to recruit Gu Xi, but Gu Xi’s actions now had undoubtedly angered them.
Gu Xi said indifferently, “You guys are so pathetic.”
The smell of gunpowder in the air became more and more intense. The killing intent of the Ancient Sect and the others was almost tangible. “Very good –”
They drove the Snow Beasts and slowly surrounded Gu Xi. The huge pressure suddenly multiplied, so much so that even the others were affected and subconsciously retreated dozens of meters.
A large area of open space appeared beside the Supreme Purity Sect. The other sects seemed to be hiding from some flood or beast, afraid of being implicated.
On the other hand, the big sects and families, such as the Pure Lotus Sect and the Zhan Clan, were looking at the scene in front of them coldly.
“Isn’t your Pure Lotus sect always compassionate towards the Heavens and the people? Why aren’t you attacking now?”
The one who said this was the Zhan Clan. He had the tone of someone who did not mind watching a show.
The people from the Pure Lotus Sect were not fools. How could they be so easily baited? “Life and death are determined by fate. It is not something that you and I can stop.”
“Tsk, so what if you are a hypocrite. You even make it sound so grand.”
The other major sects saw this and were hesitating whether they should make a move. After all, if they helped, they could rope Gu Xi over to their side. After all, his pill refinement and weapon refinement skills were truly unparalleled.
However, the Primal Chaos Secret Realm was about to open, and there were endless disputes in the Secret Realm. The competition was even crueler. They should have reserved their strength. If they were to become enemies with the Ancient Sect for Gu Xi, it would be a loss that did not make up for the gains.
Moreover, the Emperor’s Treasure in the Secret Realm, along with Emperor Artifacts and Cultivation Methods, were the things that were most tempting to people. When weighing the pros and cons, no one said or did anything rashly for a while.
Looking at the people from the Ancient Sect surrounding them, the Supreme Purity Sect was like a weak little beast under the sharp claws, unable to fight back at all.
The disciples said carefully, “Elder Wu, what should we do now? Will Senior Brother Gu be okay?”
