Chapter 424_2
"Furthermore, with so many of you, attacking right at our Hundred Peaks Sect's gate, attempting to seize our gate and annihilate our sect."
"If we let you leave just like that, what would the world think of the Hundred Peaks Sect? By then, if every Great Teaching follows your example, would the Hundred Peaks Sect ever find peace?"
"The Hundred Peaks Sect is not a place where you can come and go as you please!"
Among the opposing three True Immortal Realm cultivators, two are already injured. It's clear that our side with True Immortal Realm cultivators is more formidable. Isn't that reason enough to say something? He's refining pills, but there's still plenty of herbs missing. Our Hundred Peaks Sect's gate hasn't been restructured yet. Right now, if he doesn't demand some resources, how could he justify the assistance of Immortal Lord Xi Mu and the Grand Preceptor!"
Anyway, it's these people who first wanted to seize their gate. Is it excessive for him to request some resources?
This is simply Death River Sect being forcibly countered, ending in failure!
"Indeed, we previously had some misunderstandings with the Hundred Peaks Sect. How about this? We will send, separately, ten low-grade, mid-grade, and high-grade yellow-grade treasures as a token of our apology. What do you think of this offer, Hundred Peaks Sect Leader?" The Death River Sect Leader had no choice but to bow his head, as the situation overpowered him and the other's fists were harder, and they explicitly demanded compensation, so he had no choice but to comply!"
"Thirty yellow-grade treasures?" Cao Zhen sneered upon hearing this. "Who are you trying to brush off? Or, who do you look down upon? We, the Hundred Peaks Sect, don't need these treasures of yours.
How about this? You bring out some herbs, leave all the herbs from your Great Teaching's treasury, and this matter will be put to rest."
He knew the other side would definitely refuse, but isn't it common practice to start with a high price and lower it later? He might as well start with a big demand.
The Death River Sect Leader's face instantly froze. Leaving all their herbs was absolutely impossible. However, looking at the other side's two True Immortal Realm cultivators, he didn't dare refuse directly. He could only intentionally show difficulty and shake his head, saying, "Hundred Peaks Sect Leader, all the herbs of our Great Teaching are accumulated through countless efforts by our forerunners over many generations. If I were to hand over all these herbal resources to you, it would be a great disrespect to our ancestors. Moreover, even if I agreed, the disciples of our Death River Sect would not agree."
In the void, the Grand Preceptor, upon hearing this, suddenly emitted a chilling aura that spread instantly, coldly saying, "If you don't agree, then you might as well die."
"Town Immortal Lord!" The Death River Sect Leader spoke coldly, his face turned as black as a cauldron's bottom. He had already given Grand Preceptor Town Immortal considerable face, as well as to the people of the Hundred Peaks Sect. But the way Grand Preceptor Town Immortal spoke was a bit too much!
No matter how you look at it, he's still a sect leader. Now, standing before all disciples of the Great Teaching, if he appears too weak, what remaining prestige would he have in the sect, and how should he manage the entire teaching afterward!
"Indeed, you do have two True Immortal Realm practitioners. However, our Death River Sect doesn't only have True Immortal Realm; we also have the Immortality Regainment Realm, Earth Immortal Realm, and even more numbers than the Hundred Peaks Sect!"
"If you truly want to take down our Death River Sect, you will also suffer great losses, think carefully."
"I'm giving you face, not wanting our two sects to battle to the point of heavy casualties, but it doesn't mean our Death River Sect is afraid of you!"
"If it truly comes to a fight, who will win or lose remains uncertain."
"If you're unsure, then let's test it," the Grand Preceptor snorted coldly, behind him, in three immortal palaces, dazzling light shone, immortal energy rapidly flowed within his immortal palaces, waves of ethereal energy surged from the palaces, making the three palaces appear even more ethereal and mysterious. Faintly, celestial sounds echoed from the palaces, but these celestial sounds were filled with murderous aura.
In the hands of the Grand Preceptor, appeared a scale as if it were his second immortal palace, and from this scale emanated an unquestionable aura of authority...
On either side of the scale, one side hung various torture instruments like branding irons, lock chains, shackles, water-fire rods, and on the other side, books, brush and ink, court hall wood blocks...
The Grand Preceptor stood in the middle of the scale, exuding a startling aura of majesty.
The Death River Sect Leader felt the terrifying aura emanating from the Grand Preceptor, faintly even feeling as if the Grand Preceptor was an arbiter capable of judging everything under heaven, and he was the one being judged.
How could it be like this?
In the eyes of the Death River Sect Leader, a fleeting sign of fear passed by; clearly, his own cultivation realm was higher, as he was in the Mid True Immortal Realm. However, now, he felt an illusion of facing a master even more powerful than himself!
The opponent's aura was too overwhelmingly, absolutely unlike someone in the Early True Immortal Realm!
Suddenly, the entire void's atmosphere grew heavy. Faintly, he even felt as though the sky became lower as if the entire sky was falling toward the west, pressing down on him, even as someone in the Mid True Immortal Realm, causing him to feel suffocated.
In the next moment, across from him, the Grand Preceptor, like an arbiter in a judgment, reached out in his direction. Instantly, treasures on the scale suddenly shot out, heading in his direction, tearing through the void.
The Death River Sect Leader was stunned in place; how could this Grand Preceptor Town Immortal act so suddenly!
As the sect leader, he must not appear too weak, which is why he said some strong words. However, from his previous words about apologies, his meaning was already clear, that he was willing to offer compensation, as to what kind of compensation, naturally that would have to be negotiated, adjusted, and bargained over time.
