Chapter 34: The Fall of the Tianming Sect

~7 min read 1,360 words

"Ye Jianxin, are you not afraid of our Ancestor's retaliation?"

Watching the Tianming Sect Disciples falling one after another, Tianmingzi felt heart-wrenching pain and roared at the sword-wielding figure before him.

After the Langya Pavilion Master and Tianming Laoyao began their battle, Langya Pavilion had almost emptied its nest, striking at the Tianming Sect with lightning speed.

At the same time, the high-level members of the Tianming Sect currently at Langya Pavilion were also being besieged by a team led by Langya Pavilion Great Elder Ye Jianxin.

Among them, Ye Jianxin's combat power exceeded everyone's expectations; his sword techniques were incomparably sharp and possessed great momentum.

He was actually able to use his Nine-Star Dou Zun cultivation to beat Tianmingzi, who had already reached Two-Turn Dou Zun Peak, into a wretched state.

On other battlefields, even in one-on-one duels, the experts of Langya Pavilion still held the upper hand, and due to the greater number of Langya Pavilion experts, the Tianming Sect side was almost routed at the first touch.

No one could have imagined that a war expected to be a sure victory would tilt toward the Langya Pavilion the moment the battle began.

The one-sided disparity shocked all the forces in the Central Plains; no one expected that the always quiet Langya Pavilion would possess such formidable strength.

These people naturally included Tianmingzi; judging from the battle situation, the Tianming Sect could no longer hold out until their Ancestor came to support them.

Therefore, in desperation, he could only hope to use his Ancestor's reputation to make Langya Pavilion hesitate.

"Hehe," Ye Jianxin sneered, "Tianmingzi, are you still pinning your hopes on Tianming Laoyao now?"

"What do you mean?" Tianmingzi felt a sudden panic in his heart and asked with some agitation.

"Since that's the case, I'll let you die knowing the truth." Ye Jianxin also stopped his offensive and said with a tone of disdain,

"From the moment your Tianming Sect angered our Pavilion Master, your doomsday was already approaching.

Even that Tianming Laoyao who broke through to Dou Saint is the same; there are gaps even between Dou Saints."

After finishing, he couldn't help but deal another blow to Tianmingzi, "Perhaps by now, you don't even have the chance to collect Tianming Laoyao's corpse."

Looking at Tianmingzi, whose face was as pale as paper and whose heart was filled with despair, he delivered another heavy blow,

"Moreover, your Tianming Sect's headquarters is likely already ours by now. Hahaha."

Hmm...

Suddenly, it feels a bit like a villain.

"Impossible, absolutely impossible..." Under the massive blow, Tianmingzi was already babbling incoherently.

"The Ancestor is so powerful, even if he couldn't win, he would definitely be able to escape. It must be fake news, yes, it must be fake..."

Then, Tianmingzi roared, "Ye Jianxin, you are a top expert at the Nine-Star Dou Zun level, don't use this method to break my mental state.

Our Ancestor will not lose!" By the end, Tianmingzi's eyes were somewhat red, and then, a gray-white Dou Qi stream shot from his hand toward Ye Jianxin, even corroding the surrounding space.

"Tch! Still this move, I thought you had something fresh." Ye Jianxin curled his lips in disdain and casually slashed the gray-white Dou Qi apart with his sword.

Dou Qi flowed on the sword body, emitting a faint cyan light, as he killed his way toward Tianmingzi.

Half an hour later, Ye Jianxin pierced through Tianmingzi's chest with his sword; covered in blood, Tianmingzi opened his eyes wide and unwillingly took his last breath.

Casually tossing Tianmingzi's corpse aside and shaking the blood off his sword, Ye Jianxin let out a turbid breath.

I have to say, this guy Tianmingzi's final desperate struggle was still quite troublesome.

At this moment, an Elder came to Ye Jianxin's side and reported respectfully: "Great Elder, all the people from the Tianming Sect have been killed. Please give your instructions, Great Elder."

"Mm." The flat tone combined with Ye Jianxin's unwithdrawn killing intent made his usually somewhat lazy face appear quite cold.

"Withdraw the team, and send half of the Dou Zun Elders to support the team attacking the Tianming Sect's headquarters."

"Yes."

Although most of the Tianming Sect's experts had been brought to Langya Pavilion by Tianming Laoyao, they had ultimately left some people behind to guard it.

The Langya Guard might not be able to resolve it in time; sending more people would resolve the battle as quickly as possible and reduce casualties.

Tianming Sect headquarters.

As a top force in the Central Plains, the Tianming Sect's headquarters buildings were naturally grand and majestic, full of dignity.

Even while running rampant in the Central Plains, no one with eyes had ever dared to come and provoke them.

But today, the situation had changed. The Tianming Sect headquarters was filled with soaring flames, buildings were shattered, and it had turned into a sea of raging fire.

The former high tower was broken from the middle section, as if it had been collapsed by someone directly at the waist.

Countless once-arrogant Tianming Sect Disciples were slaughtered on the spot.

"Who are you people, daring to attack our Tianming Sect? Are you not afraid of our Ancestor's retaliation?"

An Elder asked unwillingly before he died.

"Langya Guard." One of the invaders said calmly.

"It's people from Langya Pavilion." Many Tianming Sect Disciples were shocked.

"Damn it, is your Langya Pavilion going to war with our Tianming Sect?"

A remaining Elder of the Tianming Sect, Blood Prison Venerable, whose strength reached Eight-Star Dou Zun, roared at the black-clad Langya Guards who were slaughtering the Tianming Sect Disciples before him.

However, Blood Prison Venerable was also very shocked in his heart; these Langya Pavilion experts who called themselves Langya Guards had been completely unknown to everyone before.

This was a full forty or so Dou Zun experts. Among them, there was no lack of High-stage Dou Venerates.

The number of these people alone was already close to the total number of Dou Zun experts in the Tianming Sect.

Coupled with those numerous Langya Pavilion Disciples, it was already enough to wipe out the Disciples at the Tianming Sect headquarters.

"War?" The leader smiled and shook his head,

"Your Tianming Sect is not yet qualified to be an opponent of our Langya Pavilion; by now, Tianming Laoyao should have already been killed."

The plain and simple words made everyone in the Tianming Sect feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.

"How is that possible? Our Ancestor is a Half-Saint level expert." Although Blood Prison Venerable already believed it by thirty percent, he still wouldn't let up with his words.

He somewhat believed the man's words; after all, he had sent out the distress signal early on when the Tianming Sect headquarters was attacked by experts.

If the Ancestor were still around, he would have definitely rushed back by now. But now, the Ancestor's figure was nowhere to be seen...

Blood Prison Venerable fell into despair for a moment.

After all, since Langya Pavilion had already made plans to attack the Tianming Sect's base, they naturally would not let off the high-level members of the Tianming Sect who were heading to the wedding ceremony.

And that so-called gift prepared by his own Ancestor was something he had personally arranged; it could be said that this time, they were aiming to tear off the mask of civility.

"It's just that our Tianming Sect has lost!" Blood Prison Venerable felt sorrowful in his heart.

"Tianming Sect Disciples, scatter and break through."

A sharp shout rang out, and then, Blood Prison Venerable took the lead in heading a group of Elders and Disciples to charge toward a line of defense held by a smaller number of Langya Guards.

The other Disciples and Elders also acted according to his words, beginning to search for their own directions to escape.

However, just as the members of the Tianming Sect who had broken through the Langya Guard line were filled with the joy of survival and prepared to flee, the Langya Pavilion Venerable Elders who arrived afterward made them directly abandon their will to live.
