Chapter 2876
Nine Sects Are Here to Pressure
Tian Xing Boundary, Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect. Maple leaves covered the earth with snowy mountains in the background.
The surrounding cities and the walls were 3000 li wide with 80,000 li river between them. Countless cultivators gathered in this place.
The top ten sects of the Tian Xing Boundary came to celebrate; it was a grand event.
In the main hall, the leading figure was wearing an azure armour, with a powerful brow and pair of eyes, his demeanour was calm and his cultivation realm was the highest amongst the crowd.
“Sect Lord Ling, we’re here to congratulate your sect this time.”
“Indeed, two happy news at once, how can we not come and congratulate you?”
“You’re right, Sect Lord Ling, we came rushing so that we can be part of the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect’s might.”
Countless men came to congratulate, however Ling Yanyu could not smile, it looked like they were here to congratulate him but it was the biggest shame of the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect for the past 10,000 years.
Ling Yanyu had never imagined that those who had competed against him fiercely would come to his Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect to ask for marriage.
Ling Yun was exceptionally beautiful, everyone in the Tian Xing Boundary knew about it. Countless young men had been in love with her for a long time, however, nobody could match up against her. Because she was far too exceptional, there were less than three that could be on-par with her in the whole boundary, those monstrous prodigies.
Blood Tool Sect wasn’t particularly powerful, they’re probably ranked last amongst the top-ten sects. Furthermore, the lord of the sect was a cunning man. Now, everything had become different, the Blood Tool Sect had gained its first great luck, accepting and recruiting all the experts in the Tian Xing Boundary and the surrounding areas to their sect. The whole boundary was shocked and the sect suddenly became powerful that could stand toe-to-toe against the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect.
Originally, there were only the Divine Golem Sect and Qi Transformation Sect that were on-par with them in the entire Tian Xing Boundary. The sudden rise of the Blood Tool Sect had made the Divine Golem Sect and Qi Transformation Sect go silent. Whereby the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect was the first to suffer as they were marked by the Blood Tool Sect.
“A happy occasion it is, however, my Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect still has to think about it, carefully.” Ling Yanyu said coldly.
As the Sect Lord of the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect, one of the ten great sects of the Tian Xing Boundary, there was no reason for him to lose his composure. However, the nine great sects sent out their Divine King Elders to come and congratulate him, it was clear that the Blood Tool Sect was pressuring him to submit.
“Sect Lord Ling, this untalented Chu Wang is here to propose marriage for my grandson, Chu Yunji. It is also a great honor to your Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect. Furthermore, my Sect Lord also asked me to bring you good news, what does the Sect Lord think?” Chu Wang said with a smile.
His grandson, Chu Yunji was the Blood Tool Sect’s monstrous prodigy, gaining a peerless divine technique after a hundred years of training around the world, making the Blood Tool Sect to rise exponentially, making them as powerful as the top three sects of the boundary.
“Please allow me some time to ponder this matter. I’ll give Elder Chu an answer three days later.” Ling Yanyu said with a smile.
Even though he was extremely angry, the Blood Tool Sect still gave the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect a final warning with the other nine sect elders coming with them.
“Three days it is. I, Chu Wang, shall bring my untalented grandson, Chu Yunji, to come and ask for marriage. I hope Sect Lord Ling will not give the same reply, hehe, the remaining nine great sects look greatly upon this marriage. You’ll disappoint the masses if your Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect is still too stubborn to accept it.”
“My Junior Sister Ling Yun shall only marry a peerless prodigy, one that has hope of reaching the Emperor Realm, no mortal men are qualified. Hmph.” Ling Changsu said with an ugly expression.
He was there when Ling Yun was growing, and she’s also Ling Yanyu’s favorite disciple. Other than Ling Yun, he’s the strongest within the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect. Of course, he was also Ling Yun’s playmate since they were kids, he had feelings towards Ling Yun. His anger was thoroughly ignited now that the men of the Blood Tool Sect came to ask for her marriage.
“Is this how the sect teaches their disciples? There’s no place for him when the Elders are speaking.” Someone scorned.
“Useless thing, scram.” Ling Yanyu shouted as he waved his arm and blasted Ling Changsu out of the place.
“Hehe, I’m just joking, I hope Sect Lord Ling will not take it too seriously.” Chu Wang said.
Ling Yanyu’s expression became slightly colder but he did not explode as his smile was still mysterious as ever.
“Yes, three days later shall be the registration of marriage, we will surely come and visit again, hahaha. To congratulate the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect, and Sect Lord Ling.”
“The current Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect is not how it was, haha.”
“Ain’t that right? Chu Yunji of the Blood Tool Sect is powerful, probably on-par with Ling Yun. Sect Lord Ling, don’t keep it to yourself anymore, hehe, isn’t it great to have a son-in-law like him?”
“The monstrous prodigy of the Blood Tool Sect is the pride of our Tian Xing Boundary, a once in 10,000 years prodigy.”
The remaining elders of the nine great sects said with faces full of smiles. The great sects came to pressure you, let’s see how long you’ll hold out!
Although the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect was powerful, it was not the strongest, it’s impossible for them to go against the others.
The Blood Tool Sect had joined hands with the other nine great sects to pull the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect down, to show them who’s boss. Most importantly, the Blood Tool Sect will rise to become one of the top-three sects and the one that will be eliminated was none other than the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect.
Ling Yanyu’s expression was cold. At this moment, the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect was surrounded by enemies. The top-ten great sects of the Tian Xing Boundary, they were not planning to let him off easily.
Two fortunate events coming together, this was talking about the marriage proposal of the Blood Tool Sect and the Profound Connection Divine Palace. Ling Yun was the only one accepted to the Profound Connection Divine Palace. The Blood Tool Sect wanting to marry Ling Yun, cutting off the path of the Earthly Fire Heavenly Lightning Sect’s prodigy, this was a major disrespect to Ling Yanyu, how could he not be angered? However, he could only silently take it for now.
Ling Yanyu suppressed his anger, looked towards the others and said:
“Three days later, I, Ling Yanyu, will give Elder Chu and Tian Xing Boundary an answer.”
