1842 Secret
The heavenly lightning—which had been preparing to rush over aggressively just now—retreated in panic!
The lightning bolts at the front had already been minced by the sword aura!
Looking at the flowing and flickering light spots that filled the sky, San San subconsciously took two steps back again, his hair standing on end.Master’s might is really terrifying! Terrifying!
At this moment, a shocking aura finally erupted from Thirteen’s side!
!!Chu Liuyue turned around.
The aura around Thirteen circulated, and countless silver streams of light quickly disappeared under his skin! Then, he abruptly opened his eyes!
A snow-white light quickly flashed across his eyes!
Sharp!
Cold!
Chu Liuyue’s lips curled up slightly. Thirteen—he has broken through!
The dark clouds in the sky began to dissipate quickly.
It was a mess all around. As for the mountain peak under Thirteen’s feet, it had been charred black by the lightning.
Chu Liuyue glanced around and was secretly glad that she didn’t stay in Yue Manor to let Thirteen break through.
“Master!” Thirteen clenched his fists excitedly and quickly ran to Chu Liuyue.
The young man’s delicate face was covered in blood, and he looked rather miserable. However, those eyes were shockingly bright and filled with unconcealed joy. “Master! I’ve broken through!”
Moreover, I can clearly feel that my strength has taken a huge leap! I have never felt this way before! After passing the God Foreseeing Tribulation, it is indeed different!
Chu Liuyue was also very happy. Thirteen has survived eight lightning bolts and is definitely one of the best. In the future, his potential will be limitless. Most importantly, he is only 15 years old. Such talent… No wonder my master took a fancy to him at first glance.
“Not bad!” Chu Liuyue’s lips curved into a smile.
There was no trace of the fierce aura that had just struck the lightning.
San San sighed in his heart. Among us, only Thirteen can enjoy such treatment.
He coughed and said, “Master, since Thirteen has successfully broken through, let’s go back now?”
“There’s no hurry.” Chu Liuyue shook her head and looked back in the direction of the mountains. “There are still some things I haven’t figured out.”
As she spoke, she tightened her grip on the Chi Xiao Sword and was about to go over.
“Hey—Master, wait!” Seeing this, San San hurriedly went forward to stop her. “Master, over there… Let’s not go?”
Chu Liuyue raised her brows. “Why?”
San San looked troubled and scratched his head. “This… It’s…”
“You know that that’s the territory of the Black Sword Sect?” asked Chu Liuyue.
“Not really.” When San San heard her say this, he knew that she had misunderstood and quickly explained. “As you know, Peach Blossom Dock is vast and has continuous mountains. Although the Black Sword Sect’s people have always wanted to take it for themselves, they haven’t been able to extend their reach yet. But on this day every month, they will choose a place to carry out the final assessment for those cultivators who want to enter the sect.”
“Although the place they choose is different every time, it’s basically not far from each other. They conducted it nearby last month, so I guessed that they should be here this time. When I heard Yu Jiu say that you were here, I hurried over because I was afraid that you would bump into them—”
In the end, they bumped into each other. Moreover, there was a conflict between the two sides.
Although they didn’t attack directly, this grudge was clearly formed.
Chu Liuyue knitted her brows. “Assessment? What kind of assessment actually has to cause such a huge commotion?”
San San’s expression instantly became mysterious as he lowered his voice. “Master, you’ve seen it with your own eyes. There’s indeed something wrong with the Black Sword Sect’s assessment. Actually, many people know about this, but… If the Black Sword Sect didn’t mention it, nobody else would dare to ask. I’ve only heard that every time after the final assessment, those cultivators… will suffer heavy casualties…”
Chu Liuyue sneered. Just from the array of lightning earlier, I know how dangerous it is. How could ordinary cultivators withstand it? Even the people from the Black Sword Sect have fled in a sorry state, let alone others.
“In that case, all the more reason to take a look.”
San San wanted to say something but hesitated.
Chu Liuyue smiled. “Don’t worry. They came to ask for Thirteen just now, but I rejected them. Even if we avoid them now and take the initiative to apologize, I’m afraid they won’t accept it.”
“What?” San San was stunned and glanced at Thirteen. Only then did he know where his master’s anger and targeting toward the Black Sword Sect came from. “These people actually targeted Thirteen and even spoke rudely to you? Then, there’s no need to give in to them!”
San San thought of the heads from before and felt his stomach churn. “We’ll listen to Master!”
Anyway, now that Master is here, I don’t have to endure it! With Master’s current family background… If we really fight, who will be at a disadvantage?!
Chu Liuyue moved and flew forward!
The people behind her quickly followed.
…
The assessment venue chosen by the Black Sword Sect wasn’t far from them.
After a while, they arrived at the mountains. Looking down, they saw a long canyon.
When Chu Liuyue saw the situation below, her pupils constricted.
Cen Yi narrowed his eyes.
Thirteen gasped.
“This is…”
In the canyon, several corpses lay strewn with blood. Apart from that, there were traces of lightning strikes everywhere.
It was also because of the terrifying power of the lightning that these corpses were almost incomplete…
It was shocking and comparable to purgatory on earth!
Even though they had seen many bloody and cruel scenes, they were shocked and didn’t speak for a while when they saw this scene.
Only San San reacted calmly. Although this was the first time he had seen this scene, he had some understanding of the Black Sword Sect. Therefore, before he came, he had already guessed it.
“These people… are all those so-called cultivators who want to participate in the assessment?” asked Chu Liuyue.
San San nodded. “It should be all of them.”
A rare solemn expression appeared on his face. “Previously, the Black Sword Sect had always announced to the public that most of the people eliminated by them had left Peach Blossom Dock. But it now seems… it should be…”
They had all died at their hands.
Thirteen couldn’t help but ask, “This isn’t the first time they’ve done this, and it’s such a big commotion. Didn’t anyone notice that something was wrong?”
San San smiled bitterly. “That’s right. There’s no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world. There are indeed many people who are suspicious in the dark, but even so, they still can’t stop those people who want to enter the Black Sword Sect… Most of them have no way back to begin with. Since there’s only one life-saving straw in front of them, the Black Sword Sect, they will naturally choose to take a gamble.”
For many people, if they couldn’t become strong, it would be more painful than death.
Cen Yi suddenly looked ahead and said warily, “Someone’s coming!”
Before he could finish his sentence, a light flashed in his hand, and a huge transparent barrier had already hidden them!
