Chapter 567: What About Being a Hall Master?

Looking at Wang Kaigang's solemn appearance, he must have come this time to stand up for Gongsun Jun!

Not only was Zhang Nuo not afraid, but he actually felt a surge of impulse inside; since Wang Kaigang, with his Integration Late Stage cultivation, could reach the position of Hall Master of Chitian Hall, his cultivation must be extraordinary! It was the perfect opportunity to use him to test his own strength!

"Bullying others by relying on power? I think this question should be asked by me, the Hall Master. Tianyi Daoist, my hall's Gongsun Jun was merely here to convey the Old Sect Master's decree, so why was he beaten by the cultivators in your hall?"

Taking a step forward, Wang Kaigang said this with great annoyance. Before Tianyi Laodao could even speak, Zhang Nuo spoke up slowly.

"Hall Master Wang, Fellow Daoist Gongsun is already an Integration Middle Stage cultivator, while I am only at the Integration Early Stage, so how could he have been beaten by me? I think Fellow Daoist Gongsun's version of events is a bit hard to accept, don't you?"

"What kind of thing are you! How dare you speak in front of this Hall Master! Gongsun Jun was beaten and injured by you, so stop playing dumb!"

Wang Kaigang had a fiery temper and scolded him loudly right away! Zhang Nuo's expression stiffened, and immediately a murderous aura burst forth; the person in front of him was simply too unreasonable. He had treated the other party with reason, yet the other party was aggressive and lacked even a shred of a Hall Master's demeanor!

"Since Hall Master Wang also says that Fellow Daoist Gongsun was injured by me, then it is easy to imagine that there are no formidable figures in Chitian Hall at all! To have been defeated by an Early Stage cultivator like me! I'm afraid that even if Hall Master Wang were to take action personally, the result would be an unknown, wouldn't it?"

Since the other party would not leave him any face, Zhang Nuo had no need to keep up the act; a cold glint flashed in his eyes as he said this with disdain!

"You..."

Wang Kaigang's eyes widened into circles, and pointing a finger at Zhang Nuo, he wanted to charge up. The cultivators who had come with him also numbered over ten; these were all disciples of Chitian Hall, with the lowest cultivation being at the Spirit Severing Late Stage, and among them were three Integration Stage cultivators!

These people rushed up, intending to surround Zhang Nuo!

"Wang Kaigang, do not be too presumptuous. This is Yangtian Hall! This is my, Tianyi's, territory!"

Seeing the atmosphere growing increasingly tense, Tianyi Laodao let out a long whistle, and the sound instantly shook the great hall several times! Previously, he had only wanted to vent the pent-up frustration of many years, but now it looked like it was about to turn into an internal struggle between the two halls!

At the same time, from all around Yangtian Hall, escape lights rushed toward this side one after another; dozens of Yangtian Hall disciples charged over upon hearing the sound! They had dreamed of seeing such a scene; they were usually bullied by the cultivators of the other two halls too often, and the resentment in their hearts had only grown deeper!

"Hmph! What, do you want to gang up on us from Chitian Hall? It seems this group of trash from Yangtian Hall has grown some backbone!"

Wang Kaigang raised his eyebrows slightly, not taking these Yangtian Hall disciples seriously at all!

"Hall Master, let me handle this matter! After all, the matter started because of me!"

Zhang Nuo stood beside Tianyi Laodao and said very respectfully!

The old Daoist hesitated for a moment; although he knew Zhang Nuo's divine abilities were not weak, Wang Kaigang was a genuine Integration Late Stage cultivator. No matter how formidable Zhang Nuo was, it would be extremely inappropriate for him to face him! He was just about to open his mouth to stop him! Suddenly, he heard Zhang Nuo's voice transmission in his ears!

"Hall Master! As the saying goes, to capture the bandits, first capture the king! Only by toppling Wang Kaigang can the Yangtian Hall disciples' confidence be greatly boosted, and at the same time, the cultivators of Jintian Hall will know to retreat in the face of difficulties!"

These words from Zhang Nuo stirred up Tianyi Laodao's ambition! That's right! Yangtian Hall had been silent for too long, letting the other two halls think that it was just a soft persimmon that could be squeezed at will! Today was the perfect opportunity to hold his head high!

Thinking of this, the old Daoist nodded slightly, and the words that had reached his lips were swallowed back! Zhang Nuo took a step forward and pointed a hand at Wang Kaigang, saying:

"Hall Master Wang, didn't you come here to vent for Fellow Daoist Gongsun? Very well! In that case, Zhang Nuo will also learn a thing or two about Hall Master Wang's divine abilities!"

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone present gasped, especially the people from Chitian Hall, who cursed incessantly!

"What kind of thing are you, daring to clamor at the Hall Master!"

"Why use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken? I alone am enough to finish you!"

"Too arrogant! Hall Master, let me go!"

The voices of the Chitian Hall crowd rose wave after wave, but Wang Kaigang was extremely calm; despite his outward anger, he was calculating carefully in his heart!

Since Zhang Nuo could easily defeat Gongsun Jun, he must possess extraordinary divine abilities. If he let other disciples fight, they might end up the same as Gongsun Jun! By that time, Chitian Hall would lose even more face!

"Fight! Fight!"

The cultivators on the Yangtian Hall side, spurred on by Jiguang, shouted the slogan in unison! Under such clamor, even if Wang Kaigang had the best composure, he couldn't help it! If he were held up by an Early Stage cultivator, where would he put his face?

"Fine! This old man will come and learn your divine abilities!"

As he spoke, Wang Kaigang's escape light rose, and he flew directly into the high sky. Zhang Nuo did not show weakness and flew up as well! The crowd below instantly quieted down, and they all looked up toward the high sky!

"It seems Tianyi has found a tough hand to join Yangtian Hall this time, but with just your cultivation, wanting to back up Yangtian Hall is something you cannot do!"

"Whether I can do it or not, Zhang does not know yet, but our battle today can certainly boost the morale of Yangtian Hall!"

Looking at Wang Kaigang's icy face, Zhang Nuo said noncommittally.

"Enough talk, take this!"

In his fury, Wang Kaigang was unwilling to engage in any more verbal arguments with Zhang Nuo; as long as he personally destroyed the brat in front of him, Chitian Hall would still remain above Yangtian Hall!

With a swish of his white robe, a golden magic disk shot out from Wang Kaigang's body. This magic disk was the size of a palm, and its surface was engraved with several extremely strange Fowen. After spinning around, the magic disk hovered above Wang Kaigang's head!

"Be careful, this is Wang Kaigang's 'Myriad Derivation Talisman Disk'. This disk can conjure endless attack Fowen in an instant, and its power cannot be underestimated!"

Tianyi Daoist below moved his lips slightly and sent a voice transmission to Zhang Nuo; he was afraid that Zhang Nuo would suffer a loss, so he reminded him beforehand.

Glancing at the magic disk, Zhang Nuo kept it in mind without changing his expression! He tapped his crown lightly with one hand, a spiritual light flashed, and the Nine Dragon Sword Case manifested!

Because he had left the Sacrificial Heaven Four-Piece Set with Chen Shuang'er as the key to open the cave-within-a-cave, Zhang Nuo now only had a few Magic Treasures he could use!

Seeing Zhang Nuo's Magic Treasure appear, Wang Kaigang sneered. With a movement of his Divine Sense, the 'Myriad Derivation Talisman Disk' above his head shone with brilliant Golden Light, and several bucket-sized Fowen poured out. These were a type of defensive Fowen that circled around him incessantly; meanwhile, he pointed at Zhang Nuo in the void.

The magic disk emitted a hum, and whoosh, whoosh! Two sounds of breaking through the air rang out. Without any warning, two Fowen condensed from the 'Myriad Derivation Talisman Disk' and, in a flash, lunged at Zhang Nuo!

A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Zhang Nuo did not move, and a cold snort escaped his lips! A high-pitched dragon roar erupted from the Nine Dragon Sword Case in front of him, and then dozens of Silver Dragons rushed out! They slashed toward the incoming Fowen and Wang Kaigang himself!

Boom! Boom!

After two loud bangs, the sky was filled with flashing spiritual light. The moment Zhang Nuo's spiritualized Flying Swords made contact with the Fowen, they released all their power at once! Although this destroyed the two Fowen, the power of the Flying Swords was also completely exhausted, returning to their original state, and they flashed back into the Sword Box!

Zhang Nuo's heart skipped a beat. Since he had advanced to the Integration Stage, the power of his spiritualized Flying Swords had increased greatly, yet they had been exhausted by just one of Wang Kaigang's Fowen. It seemed that, just as Tianyi Laodao had said, the power of the Fowen condensed from the 'Myriad Derivation Talisman Disk' really could not be underestimated!

Just as this thought flashed through his mind, the dozens of Silver Dragons bared their fangs and brandished their claws as they reached Wang Kaigang! Facing these lifelike Silver Dragons, the old man just curled his lip and cast a spell toward the magic disk above his head! Immediately, the magic disk erupted with Golden Light, and dozens of Fowen flew out rapidly!

They flew toward the surrounding Silver Dragons!

The rumbling explosions were incessant. High in the sky, it turned into an ocean of Spirit Power, while Zhang Nuo's Flying Swords all returned to their original appearance, losing all Spirit Power as they returned to the inside of the Sword Box!

"Hurry up and use your real techniques! Don't come out and embarrass yourself with these childish things!"

Looking at Zhang Nuo in the distance, Wang Kaigang said with disdain!

The crowd below saw that Zhang Nuo had fallen into a disadvantage as soon as the exchange began; the Yangtian Hall side immediately went quiet, while the Chitian Hall side erupted in cheers!

"Hall Master! Teach that brat a lesson!"

"Hit him hard! Let him know that the sky is high and the earth is thick!"

Jiguang frowned tightly and looked at his master, Tianyi Laodao, only to see that there was not the slightest trace of worry on his face! He looked up toward the high sky with composure!

Since Zhang Nuo dared to publicly clamor at Wang Kaigang, his divine abilities could not be limited to just this; if that were really the case, then it would mean Tianyi Laodao had misjudged him!

"It seems Hall Master Wang does not hold these little tricks in high regard! Very well, Zhang Nuo shall employ a few divine abilities for Hall Master Wang to appraise!"

Though his words were polite, a metallic luster suddenly flashed in Zhang Nuo's eyes, and then his figure moved; a pair of black Butterfly Wings sprouted from his back, and the next moment, he flipped his palm, revealing a pair of fire wings two zhang long before him!

Taking a step forward, the fire wings were inserted under his ribs! With a powerful flap of the four wings, Zhang Nuo vanished from where he stood!

Wang Kaigang had previously spoken with great contempt for Zhang Nuo, but upon seeing his opponent get serious, he dared not lower his guard! With a movement of his Divine Sense, a large quantity of Golden Rune surged from the Myriad Derivation Talisman Disk and flew out to surround his body!
