Chapter 176

"Naturally it's...... huh?"

Gu Xingjian had not yet reacted, but the moment he did, he was instantly struck dumb.

He never could have imagined that the Clan Chief would utter such astonishing words at this very moment!

Watching Gu Xingjian's stunned look, Jiang Daoxuan said softly, "How can a fine swordsman be without a fine sword? This sword can just barely be worthy of you. Once I seize it, it shall be yours!"

This act of stepping forward also let him see Gu Xingjian's loyalty.

Since that was the case, why not grant some petty profit first? A mere upper-grade Earth-rank was nothing to his eyes!

This time, Gu Xingjian actually heard clearly what his own clan chief was saying.

His heart clenched with nervousness; he carefully glanced at the sword at Pei Qingfeng's waist, and his eyes could not help but grow hot.

One had to know that his own sword was only a peak-grade Mystic-rank at best.

And as a swordsman, how could he not yearn for a better famed blade?

For him, those famed swords were like a bevy of beauties, haunting his dreams, keeping him awake all night!

Still, thinking of Pei Qingfeng's strength and renown, Gu Xingjian quickly came back to his senses, suppressed the burning heat in his heart, looked toward his own clan chief, and could not help feeling a touch of worry: "But you, my lord?"

Jiang Daoxuan waved his hand and said casually, "Taking the sword is, for me, as easy as reaching into a bag."

The moment these words fell, Gu Xingjian was dumbfounded.

At this moment, however, Pei Qingfeng could not help but burst out laughing.

"Hahaha! As easy as reaching into a bag? What an utterly arrogant tone!"

"Then let me come and learn a thing or two, and see how you manage it. If you can't, hmph! Today I shall wipe out every last member of your Jiang clan!"

As he laughed, killing intent had already crept into Pei Qingfeng's words!

As a cultivator at the Moon Wheel realm who had comprehended the Sword Heart, how could he suffer such humiliation from the chief of a minor clan?!

Then, Pei Qingfeng's gaze hardened; the vast power within his body erupted wildly, then shot skyward, reflecting high above a dazzlingly brilliant star and an enormously huge silver full moon!

At the same time, an overwhelming might spread across the entirety of Cangwu Mountain, radiating an intent of utter destruction!

Accompanying this strange phenomenon.

Cangwu Mountain, at its foot.

In the marketplace, people came and went.

Suddenly someone happened to glance toward Cangwu Mountain.

Gazing at the star and moon in the high sky, his pupils shrank; he nearly dropped his own jaw, utterly unable to believe his own eyes!

"How is this possible? How can there be a moon and stars in broad daylight?"

The moment those words rang out, they immediately drew the attention of those around, and a heated discussion broke out at once.

"Perhaps, these are not truly a moon and stars..."

"Could Brother Luo be referring to?"

"I once heard that a powerhouse who has cultivated to the Moon Wheel realm can sense the stars of heaven and earth, forming the strange phenomenon of Star and Moon in Radiant Harmony!"

"Hiss~ If that's what you mean, could a Moon Wheel True Person have descended upon Cangwu Mountain? But how could that be possible?"

"Right! Though the Jiang clan is strong in this region, they couldn't possibly draw such a being to descend, could they?"

"Even looking across the entirety of Tiandou Prefecture, Moon Wheel realm experts are exceedingly rare; their very titles are widely known. I wonder which True Person has now arrived at Cangwu Mountain?"

The crowd buzzed with discussion, all utterly astonished by the scene before them.

No one could have imagined that today a Moon Wheel True Person would descend upon Cangwu Mountain, and from the look of it, seemed about to make a move.

Realizing this, the same thought could not help but surface in everyone's heart.

Could it be that the glory of the Jiang clan of Cangwu would end here today?

Thinking of this, the crowd suddenly grew restless; they wanted to climb Cangwu Mountain and see the details for themselves.

But recalling the various tales of the Moon Wheel realm cultivators' might.

Afraid of being slain by the shockwave, they could only stay where they were, raise their heads, gaze toward Cangwu Mountain in unison, and patiently wait for the outcome.

On Cangwu Mountain.

Seeing Pei Qingfeng summon the Star and Moon in Radiant Harmony phenomenon, Jiang Daoxuan smiled faintly.

Since you wish to use the power of heaven and earth to suppress me, then let us have a little contest!

The thought flashed through his mind; Jiang Daoxuan did not employ his own Myriad Stars Fill the Sky phenomenon, but directly activated his Sacred Body phenomenon!

To suppress Pei Qingfeng, a single phenomenon was more than enough!

The next moment.

The Immortal King Descends Upon the Nine Heavens!!

Wave after wave of terrifyingly powerful auras surged forth from Jiang Daoxuan's body, then shot skyward!

In an instant, high above the Nine Heavens, a towering figure identical to himself was manifested!

That figure was wreathed in Mysterious-Yellow qi, like a supreme Immortal King looking down upon heaven and earth, gazing down upon all living beings with pride!
