Chapter 766: Chapter 765 [Bei Lengshi is so ruthless!]

Du Wanli did not save the hunchback, but because the hunchback had now exposed the tricky schemes of the Songshan Sect, which was also of great use to his Five Poison Sect. That was why Du Wanli took action, helping the hunchback to block Bei Wei’s palm strike, and allowed the hunchback to take back his conical hat, under which the four supposed loose cultivators from the Songshan Sect were instantly revealed.

Everyone present was flabbergasted. Some people hadn’t expected that those causing a commotion in support of Bei Lengshi as the ruler of the Ancient Martial World were all actually Songshan Sect disciples in disguise. This was utterly shameless, utterly faceless. They weren’t afraid of being ridiculed by all martial artists. Of course, this also showed the conspiracy of Bei Lengshi of the Songshan Sect; he was unscrupulously terrible in pursuit of his goal.

”Hmph, so these are the people supporting your Songshan Sect, all your own disciples in disguise. You’ve taken shamelessness to such a level. All I can say is, I admire that!” Du Wanli sneered at Bei Wei.

”You... Du Wanli, if you’ve come today, don’t think you’ll leave Songshan alive.” Bei Wei said fiercely, though quietly.

”Since I dared to come, would I still fear your Songshan Sect? Do you really think the Five Poison Sect is vegetarian? Just try to make a move...” Du Wanli also glared back at Bei Wei, equally ruthless.

”The Songshan Sect is too shameless; it’s better if this great conference of the Ancient Martial World doesn’t even start.”

”We won’t accept anyone other than Master Fang Zheng, Feng Qingyang, or One Sword Taoist as the ruler of the Ancient Martial World.”

”Let’s go, let’s go, it’s just a farce staged by the Songshan Sect.”

At this, many martial artists understood the wild ambitions of the Songshan Sect and that Bei Lengshi would stop at nothing to become the ruler of the Ancient Martial World. It was best not to open the conference at all. Staying here would only lead to seeing more absurdities, and even run the risk of infuriating Bei Lengshi to the point of getting killed.

Seeing that these martial artists had understood, Xie Yuhe, Qing Chengyue, Dongfang Meng, and Ye Tianchen all exchanged smiles. There was no need for them to make any more effort, nor to pretend to support Bei Lengshi as the ruler of the Ancient Martial World. The conference of the Ancient Martial World ended unhappily, which was the best outcome.

Bei Wei was stunned; he hadn’t expected these martial artists to leave the scene so quickly. If this continued, the long-planned grand conference of the Songshan Sect would fall through. But in that moment, he didn’t know what to do and could only watch as the martial artists descended the mountain one after another, feeling a chill in his heart. He despised the hunchback to the bone and vowed to kill him if he ever got the chance.

Swish!

Suddenly, a huge palm stretched out, startling Ye Tianchen and others, who quickly circulated the Martial Arts True Power within their bodies. The might of this single palm was tremendous, making the entire mountaintop of the Songshan Sect tremble and trapping all the martial artists who were heading down the mountain in a powerful aura, rendering them unable to move. The cultivator’s realm was so powerful that he almost trapped everyone present with his own power.

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

Thud!

Immediately after, the several Songshan Sect disciples who had been posing as loose cultivators all had their heads chopped off. They exploded in mid-air, meeting an end where both body and soul were extinguished, causing everyone present to gasp in shock. Who was this person? Before even appearing, they had released such immense pressure that probably no one present was a match for them.

”Gentlemen, thank you for gracing the Songshan Sect and attending this grand meeting of the Ancient Martial World. This is very much appreciated, but if anyone dares to cause trouble at my Songshan Sect, or pretend to be a disciple of my Songshan Sect to do evil, I will show no mercy,” a very cold voice came. The voice echoed in the minds of every martial artist, overwhelming with immense pressure, giving everyone a tremor in their souls.

”Father...” Bei Wei couldn’t help but turn back delightedly to look behind him.

At that moment, a middle-aged man appeared, dressed in a golden Taoist robe, with a small tuft of beard, and his gaze was extremely fierce, as if he intended to see through everyone present. This man was Master Bei Lengshi of the Songshan Sect. When his eyes swept over Ye Tianchen, he couldn’t help but frown, revealing a trace of confusion, which startled Ye Tianchen. If Bei Lengshi really saw through the ”Bone Transformation Skill” and recognized his true face, then he truly wouldn’t be able to leave the Songshan Sect alive today.

Fortunately, Bei Lengshi’s peculiar gaze was but a fleeting one, and did not linger on Ye Tianchen for long. It seemed that the ”Bone Transformation Skill” was indeed very powerful; even a master like Bei Lengshi could not easily see through it.

Hum!

After scanning the crowd with his gaze, Bei Lengshi flicked his right index finger lightly, and the powerful oppressive force that enveloped everyone vanished. Those who had been walking toward the foot of the Songshan Sect’s mountain also involuntarily returned. The oppressive force exerted by Bei Lengshi was too overwhelming, causing everyone’s heart to pound; no one present was a match for him. This was the intimidation from a stronger power.

”Master Bei, what is the meaning of this?” The old hunchback paused for a moment before steadfastly looking at Bei Lengshi and asking.

”It means nothing, just maintaining the peace of the Ancient Martial World. Those people just now dared to impersonate disciples of my Songshan Sect, which is not only an insult to my sect but also a disrespect to me, Bei Lengshi. Thus, I must naturally kill them. I, Bei Lengshi, am not someone who enjoys meaningless killing, but if someone dares to deliberately oppose me, then don’t blame me for being unkind. Ants should be aware of their own strength and must not be ignorant of their place,” Bei Lengshi said coldly, looking at the old hunchback.

The old hunchback was startled and felt a powerful pressure bearing down on him. In terms of cultivation realm, Bei Lengshi could probably annihilate him with just the flick of a finger. But as a martial artist, as a person, what would be the point of living if one didn’t dare to resist against authority? That would be nothing more than clinging to a miserable existence without any basic human dignity.

”You... Master Bei, you said that those people just now were impersonating disciples of the Songshan Sect, but why then were they pretending to be loose cultivators in the beginning?” the old hunchback asked, still standing his ground.

”Old fool, don’t be ignorant. If you wish to die, I can grant you that anytime,” Bei Wei glared fiercely and said to the old hunchback.

”Wei, do not be disrespectful to your senior. Our Songshan Sect has always strived for the peace of the Ancient Martial World. The convening of this great conference of the Ancient Martial World should not be disrupted because of our personal honor or disgrace,” Bei Lengshi scolded Bei Wei.

”Yes, father!” Bei Wei said, glancing fiercely at the old hunchback.

Ye Tianchen watched Bei Lengshi and found that his cultivation was indeed unfathomable. Just by extending his palm, he had managed to subdue everyone present, none of whom could stand against him. Even if they all joined forces, it was unlikely that they could defeat Bei Lengshi. Moreover, many martial artists present were overwhelmed by Bei Lengshi’s might. It seemed that Bei Lengshi’s next step to become the ruler of the Ancient Martial World would be easy.

No one expected Bei Lengshi to be so ruthless, killing his own disciples as if slaughtering chickens and dogs without hesitation. After the truth came out, he shamelessly claimed that those four who supported him to become the ruler of the Ancient Martial World were impostors from his Songshan Sect and ruthlessly killed them, shocking everyone present. If he could so inhumanely execute even his own disciples, what about the rest of them? Who could stand against Bei Lengshi? Even if the old hunchback fearlessly continued to resist, it wouldn’t change the fact that Bei Lengshi was set to become the ruler of the Ancient Martial World.

Bei Lengshi sneered as he looked at everyone present; everything was going as he expected. As soon as he made his move, these martial artists, none dared to oppose him. What followed would just be righteous words and actions, and ultimately, these martial artists would become his sacrificial pawns for his attack on Sun Never Sets Mountain.

”The Songshan Sect, Sword Control Sect, Yaochi Sect, Ancient Tomb Sect, Flying Knife Sect, Huashan Sect, and Shaolin have already sent letters of support for this union of the Ancient Martial World sects. Five Poison Sect has sent Du Wanli as the Saint Heir to represent them. Now, only the Wudang Sect has yet to send someone. However, this does not affect the convention of our conference; the election for the ruler of the Ancient Martial World shall commence regardless. Since One Sword Taoist of the Wudang Sect is both my friend and senior, who has expressed his hope for peace in the Ancient Martial World and wished for a leader to guide martial artists to forge a wider world, therefore, I hereby announce the election for the ruler of the Ancient Martial World will begin now...” Bei Lengshi declared.

”As everyone knows, Master Fang Zheng of the Shaolin has passed away, and One Sword Taoist of the Wudang Sect is of advanced age. Only Wind from Mount Hua remains as our senior. I wonder, Sect Leader Xian Yutong, what are your thoughts?” someone asked.

Xian Yutong was the sect leader of the Huashan Sect, a man who seldom walked in the circles of the Ancient Martial World. Not many knew about him, and even the disciples of the Huashan Sect had rarely been seen in the Ancient Martial World in recent years, making Xian Yutong a mystery to most.

When someone mentioned the senior Wind from Mount Hua, Xian Yutong looked around at those seated, then gave a very respectful smile towards the lofty Bei Lengshi and said to everyone, ”Senior Wind from Mount Hua left our Huashan Sect fifty years ago, and his whereabouts have been unknown ever since. Despite searching for a long time, we have not been able to find him. I fear that he may have already passed away. As for this election at the Ancient Martial World conference, I have someone in mind who I believe is a suitable candidate, representing only the view of our Huashan Sect. That person is... Sect Leader Bei Lengshi, who is undoubtedly worthy!” (To be continued. If you like this work, welcome to Qidian [qidian.com] to cast your recommendation votes and monthly tickets.
