Chapter 15: Imminent Crisis

Bai Weiwei said it not because she got arrogant after gaining her great strength.

It was because the majority of the inner sect disciples present were below the age of thirty years old, and most of them were only at the first or second level of the Golden Core Realm. Those who were at the intermediate or even high stage of the Golden core Realm were all over thirty years old, thus they had not been chosen to enter the Sage Mystic Realm.

As for the other Golden Core Realm cultivators who were over the age of thirty, they naturally would not challenge them.

However, when the proud inner sect disciples heard Bai Weiwei’s words, they thought differently.

They thought that Bai Weiwei had broken through by taking the secret medicine that Elder Xuan had bestowed upon her. Now, her cultivation level wasn’t stable yet, but she was so arrogant, even boasting that she’d challenge ten inner sect disciples at the same time.

Did she really think that she was a genius? Those below thirty years old who could reach the Golden Core Realm were highly talented. How could they bow to a girl?

However, most of the disciples present were at the Foundation Establishment Realm. In addition, the scene of Bai Weiwei defeating Liu Yun with one sword strike was still vivid in their minds. They didn’t dare to say anything despite their anger.

At this time, a man appeared.

“I haven’t been out for a long time and it seems that anyone can bluff openly in the sect.” A man dressed in black and looked to be about 23 years old walked out.

What attracted people’s attention was that this person carried a two-meter-long giant sword on his back. It looked very fierce.

“This… is the Beheading Great Sword. Could it be that he is Long Tian, the Ghost Hand? My God, why did this fierce person come here?”

“Who is Long Tian the Ghost Hand? Is he very powerful?”

“You don’t know Long Tian the Ghost Hand? He is a genius appearing as the same time as Elder Xuan. However, he was defeated by Elder Xuan in the grand competition. He got rid of his original cultivation strength and began to cultivate again, just make a new start! Don’t underestimate him just because he is only at the first level of Golden Core Realm. Lots of geniuses have died under his Beheading Great Sword,” a disciple quickly explained to others in a low voice.

“Hehe, Ghost Hand, she is mine. If you know what’s good for you, quickly get out of the way. Otherwise, you’ll get another taste of thunder from me.” A mocking voice came from the sky.

Although they only heard the voice, no one present dared to say anything! Not even Long Tian the Ghost Hand!

It was because the person was Murong Lei the Thunder Sword! His cultivation was at the second level of the Golden Core Realm!

What made people fearful was not his cultivation strength, but his background.

It was said that Murong Lei’s spirit energy contained a trace of lightning. When he broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm, he he was struck by lightning and almost died. Elder Xuan cherished his talent and saved his life, intending to take him in as his eldest disciple. However, Murong Lei was proud and refused Xuan Yi’s offer; he even said that he would one day surpass Xuan Yi, so he didn’t need to become anyone’s disciple!

In the following years, Murong Lei revealed his talent, but he was still not as good as Xuan Yi.

Later on, he knew that the higher the cultivation level, the more difficult it would be and he began to admire Xuan Yi.

Although Murong Lei did not have any outstanding battle achievements, he was the first disciple that Elder Xuan had intended to take in, which was enough to make him proud!

Although he regretted missing out on becoming Xuan Yi’s disciple, as proud as he was, he would never say it out loud.

After the recent leveling up, what he wanted to do the most now was to defeat all of Xuan Yi’s disciples to prove himself!

When the disciples saw that it was Murong Lei, they were extremely excited, especially those who knew of his relationship with Bai Weiwei. They were all looking forward to this big battle.

Murong Lei glanced at Bai Weiwei and said with contempt, “Judging from the way you hold your sword, I can tell that you are not good at swordsmanship. Tsk! Tsk! It turns out Xuan Yi’s disciples are so useless, huh? He even took in someone who knows nothing about swordsmanship. What a joke.”

These words were extremely harsh to Bai Weiwei’s ears. She was displeased not for her own sake but because of his contempt for her master!

He actually dared to call her master by his name!

Bai Weiwei’s eyes were filled with a shocking chill!

She’d cripple anyone who dared to disrespect her master!

“Let’s begin!” Bai Weiwei said firmly.

Without holding back, she released her spirit energy and poured it into the supreme-grade spirit sword.

She compressed the spirit energy as much as she could, condensing it into a resplendent white light!

She made a slash, and a long rainbow of sword energy shot out!

Like a long dragon, it shot straight towards Murong Lei.

Seeing this exquisite sword attack, Murong Lei’s pupils expanded with fear and excitement.

He was afraid because he knew he could not dodge this attack at all. He was excited because he saw from this sword technique a sword intent that he would never be able to comprehend in his entire life!

This sword intent was naturally not Bai Weiwei’s. It was left behind by Xuan Yi when he was treating her injuries. He hoped that Bai Weiwei would be able to understand it as soon as possible.

Murong Lei knew that this sword intent belonged to Xuan Yi. However, he was astonished that there was actually someone in this world who could directly pass on a sword intent to others.

At this moment, his face turned pale with great regret.

What he regretted was not that his skills were inferior, but that he had refused to become Xuan Yi’s disciple.

This regret had turned into a great pain.

At the second level of the Golden Core Realm, he couldn’t even withstand a single sword attack from Xuan Yi’s new disciple.

How the f*ck could he continue his cultivation?!

Murong Lei felt extremely bitter.

Seeing this scene, Long Tian the Ghost Hand was so scared that his eyeballs almost popped out.

After all, his strength was not much different from Murong Lei’s. Just now, he had boasted shamelessly, saying that Bai Weiwei was a nobody. But her strength was frightening.

He hurriedly threw down his nameplate. When the others saw this, they did the same. So Bai Weiwei got all of the one hundred nameplates.

Standing in the crowd, Ma Liang saw what had happened.

At this moment, he was a little afraid of Bai Weiwei, but he didn’t conceal the deep hatred in his eyes.

Not long ago, he received a letter from his family which said that more than half of the elites of the Earth Rock Sect and the White Bone Sect had been slaughtered by her.

How could he not hate her! !

“Bai Weiwei, you dare to kill people of my clan. So don’t blame me for doing this!”

He immediately injected spirit energy into his voice transmission stone.

“Elder Ma, I found Bai Weiwei. She is currently at the Underground Palace. Elder Ma, please display your strength and kill her to avenge my clan!” Ma Liang gritted his teeth and said.

“Humph! The b*tch actually dared to kill my junior brother. I’ll make her pay with her life! !” A furious shout came from the voice transmission stone.

Then, a white shadow flew toward the Underground Palace.
