Chapter 18: Paranoia

He still used the arc moon sword control technique.

These four disciples had been sent out to guard the mountain gate. They were not even considered core disciples, so strong could they be?

They were only in the qi induction realm, so it was only natural that they could not stop Jiang Cheng.

The sword light flashed by, and blood spurted from the necks of the four people and four dead bodies fell down.

His strike had been clean and neat.

“Alright, let’s continue. Lead the way!”

“Alright!”

Elder Liang was no longer surprised by his behavior.

He even felt that it was quite heroic to charge in like this.

In the future, the version that would be circulated throughout the outside world would sound something like, ‘the sect leader and I worked together to take down the Extreme Moon sect’, ‘the sect leader and I fought side-by-side to carve out a bloody path’, and even,’Jiang Cheng and I killed dozens of elders of the Extreme Moon sect together’.

Liang Da’s name would resound throughout the nine mountains and seventeen grottos in Qinglan Prefecture, and his heroism would be remembered across many generations.

Now that he thought about it, it would be quite a beautiful sight to behold!

Thinking this, his body became much lighter.

“Sect master, this way! This way is closer!”

The two of them charged in openly, and because their actions were too sudden, the Extreme Moon sect did not have any defenses prepared at all.

After all, the sect had just emerged victorious a day ago, so who would have thought that they would be attacked today?

Along the way, there were only a few disciples who were at the peak of the yuan gathering realm. Jiang Cheng did not even have to make a move.

In order to increase his contribution and his share of the spoils of war, elder Liang had put in a lot of effort to kill the small fries.

The hundred-foot-long sword light seemed to be like a giant scythe, harvesting any souls it came across.

Jiang Cheng was enjoying his performance leisurely as he followed behind him.

At this moment, the rogue cultivators outside the mountain gate had exploded into a frenzy.

“Crazy! Crazy!”

“These two people don’t want their lives anymore, do they?”

“Regardless of whether they still want their lives or not, the Extreme Moon sect has suffered a great loss this time. Many people have already died.”

“This matter has blown up…”

By the time Qi Gaohong heard the news and led a group of elders over to kill them, elder Liang’s kill count had already reached 135 people.

“Liang Da, how dare you!”

“You actually dared to slaughter our disciples, and even the low-level outer sect disciples too. Are you not ashamed? Your actions are not befitting that of a proper soul division realm cultivator!”

“Dismember him into ten thousand pieces!”

Qi Gaohong’s eyes were red, and the other elders gnashed their teeth in rage.

Although these disciples’ cultivations were not high, they represented the future of the sect.

Anyone would feel heartache if more than a hundred of them were killed just like that, not to mention the fact that the other party had charged into their own home and slapped their faces like that.

Who could stand such humiliation?

Liang Da was now full of confidence and did not take them seriously at all.

“Your disciples won’t be the only ones dying. You’ll soon join them in hell too!”

He wiped off the bloodstained longsword with an arrogant expression on his face.

“It’s just a matter of time.”

“Why are you so anxious?”

Damn, this elder Liang was quite skilled at acting cool.

Jiang Cheng rolled his eyes helplessly.

His unusual confidence surprised Qi Gaohong and the others.

For a moment, they hesitated to act.

Naturally, their gazes fell on Jiang Cheng.

“Who are you?”

Liang Da jumped out again.

“You stinky fishes and shrimps, do you think you’re worthy of speaking directly to our sect master?”

“There’s no harm in telling you. Our new sect master, Jiang Cheng, will wipe out your entire sect!”

After saying that, he jumped back and hid behind Jiang Cheng.

This fellow, Jiang Cheng really had no energy left to ridicule him.

Oh, so you’re here to show off, and I’m here to be the main fighting force?

What a sly old fellow!

“New sect master?”

Qi Gaohong’s pupils constricted, and his gaze shot toward Jiang Cheng like an arrow.

“Was it you who killed the seven elders of my sect?”

“That’s right, it was me.”

Jiang Cheng stepped forward.

“I had a great time killing those seven elders. If you have anything to say about it, you can go ahead and say your piece, but it won’t change the end result.”

Brother Cheng had to take the lead in acting cool. How could he let a mere elder Liang snatch the spotlight?

“You!”

Qi Gaohong was so angry that his face had turned from red to white.

“Who ordered you to do this? Tell me the faction behind you! I know that you’re not a part of the Duanmu family!”

He could tell from a glance that Jiang Cheng was only at the fourth level of the soul division realm.

As such, it would have been impossible for him to achieve such a feat with his own strength.

However, if this person was a madman, Liang Da would not have behaved so brazenly.

Over the years, Qi Gaohong had participated in many conflicts with the Flying Immortal sect. He was familiar with elder Liang, and could definitively say that running away was one of the latter’s best skills.

For such a person to suddenly turn into a brave warrior, could it be that Jiang Cheng’s strength was not as simple as it appeared to be?

“No, I was just personally taking the initiative to look for trouble with you.”

Jiang Cheng chuckled. “I’m only at the fourth level of the soul division realm. Do you not dare to make a move on me?”

The more he spoke, the more cautious Qi Gaohong became.

There had to be something fishy going on here.

Especially when he saw elder Liang, who was hiding at the back, come out and shout again.

“Sect master, stop talking nonsense with these ants. Destroy them all!”

Jiang Cheng was a little displeased. “Are you teaching me how to do things?”

Are you the sect master or am I the sect master?

Are you not trying too hard to act cool? Do you really want to snatch the spotlight away from me?

“I wouldn’t dare, I wouldn’t dare…”

Liang Da quickly shrank back.

He cursed Jiang Cheg in his heart, but did not dare to show his dissatisfaction on his face.

At this moment, Qi Gaohong finally made a decision.

He gave Zhao Chuyang, the hallmaster of the sect’s Imperial Sword hall, a look.

“Let’s test his strength!”

He suspected that Jiang Cheng’s strength was not only at the fourth level of the soul division realm, but he did not dare to test it out personally either. What if he was killed in an instant?

As the hallmaster of the sect’s Imperial Sword hall, Zhao Chuyang’s strength was second only to his own, and had reached the eighth level of the soul division realm.

If he was defeated quickly, then it meant that Jiang Cheng was actually at the spiritual altar realm.

If that was the case, he planned to escape immediately. He would have to endure this humiliation today and seek revenge later.

Zhao Chuyang looked at Qi Gaohong resentfully, wishing he could curse the latter’s ancestors for eighteen generations.

He could easily figure out what Qi Gaohong’s intentions were.

At this time, who would dare to act recklessly and test out the other party’s strength.

However, the order of the sect master could not be disobeyed unless he wanted to betray the sect on the spot.

In the end, he could only brace himself and walk forward step by step.

Under the sympathetic gazes of the other elders, he pulled out his sword.

“You dared to invade my Extreme Moon sect… You, you have to think of the price you have to pay for doing so.”

His words were a little incoherent.

“Are you provoking me?”

Actually, Jiang Cheng did not care whether or not the other party was provoking him. In any case, the system said he could do whatever he wanted at the Extreme Moon sect.

However, this simple sentence scared Zhao Chuyang so much that he broke out into cold sweat.

He was afraid of arousing Jiang Cheng’s ire, so he actually changed his words.

“No, no, I just want to exchange a few moves from sect leader Jiang. It’s best if we don’t go all out…”

Jiang Cheng was dissatisfied. If the other party did not go all out, then he would not be able to die, right?

“Don’t, it’s meaningless. Have you forgotten that our two sects are mortal enemies?”

After saying this, he impatiently took out his flying sword and charged forward.

At the sight of that sword, Qi Gaohong’s expression became even more unsightly.

Was that not elder Yao Qiulin’s sword?

It had actually fallen into his hands. No wonder the life tablets of those three elders had also been shattered yesterday.

This kid was the murderer!

It seemed like he had to prepare his escape. When he saw that the situation was not looking good, he had to act quickly in order to avoid being caught.

He was still thinking about escaping when a blood-red light flashed, and a figure suddenly fell to the ground.
