Chapter 1179: Open Challenge Zhang Fei [5], accompanied by You Feiling and the female elders, welcomed the guests who were starting to arrive. The first to arrive were Chi Hongchen and Guang Yue, the two Sect Masters of the Sun Moon Sect. They were annoyed and amazed to see the changes on the floating plateau, which used to be sparsely populated with buildings but was now full of buildings. Moreover, almost the entire area is lush with trees, making the atmosphere there much more comfortable than before. Chi Hongchen and Guang Yue frowned when they detected another barrier besides the original barrier, but they couldn’t see it because it was created by Bing Xingying using her void element, and it was completely transparent. "Welcome to our sect." Both Chi Hongchen and Guang Yue immediately looked at Zhang Fei [5] and the others. "So, you are the new elder who gave Qing Qiu’er the idea to turn it into a universal sect?" "That’s right." Zhang Fei [5] nodded at them. "I am a dual cultivator myself, so I understand that dual cultivation sects will never be able to rival the other sects. Therefore, I propose that we transform this sect into a universal one while still retaining our dual cultivation hall for those who wish to pursue that path. "You are absolutely right about that." Chi Hongchen nodded in agreement. "Most dual cultivators don’t care much about other cultivation paths, and they are more focused on pursuing higher cultivation to achieve a longer life, which makes them weak in true combat. Even so, many of them still pursue some other cultivation paths, like the two of us, and we also walk the sword and body Cultivation Paths." Zhang Fei [5] nodded in understanding. "Sword cultivation is the best solution for self-protection, and body cultivation is essentially a crucial part of dual cultivation. Since the event time is still quite long, Vice Sect Master You will lead the two of you to look around new areas of ​​our sect first, and you will find many interesting things there." "Alright." Chi Hongchen then looked at You Feiling. "Please lead us, Vice Sect Master You." "Follow me." The two guests immediately followed You Feiling, while Guang Yue glanced at Zhang Fei [5] several times and contemplated various thoughts. Not long after, they saw three people flying toward that location. Fang Roulan informed Zhang Fei [5] directly. "They are the two sect masters of the Blazing Union Sect, Ming Tianhe and Qiu Meixuan. The woman behind them is a core disciple of their sect, Ru Xian. Her status is a bit different from the other disciples, especially since she is also Sect Master Ming’s partner." "Elder Zhang, you have to be careful of Ming Tianhe." Zhang Fei [5] turned to Qiu Yue. "That man is infatuated with Sect Master Qing, and he might do something crazy if he finds out that you are his partner." "I think he already knows about our relationship." Zhang Fei [5] could already see the hatred and jealousy in Ming Tianhe’s eyes even though the three of them were still quite far away; he didn’t even bother to hide his killing intent. Before long, the three arrived in front of them. Qiu Meixuan looked at Zhang Fei [5] with a flirtatious gaze and a seductive smile, unlike Meng Tianhe, who regarded him with hostility. Naturally, Zhang Fei [5] was not interested in a woman belonging to the streets like Qiu Meixuan. He didn’t even spare a glance at her and spoke to Ming Tianhe directly. "Welcome to our new sect, Sect Master Ming. I understand why you are so hostile toward me, but Qing Qiu’er is mine. I will never hand her over to anyone, so you can forget about her and stop acting like this." Qiu Yue and all the women there were stunned by Zhang Fei [5]’s boldness, especially since his cultivation was still at the 1-Sun Celestial Lord Realm, and Ming Tianhe’s cultivation had reached the 1-Sun Celestial Venerable Realm. Although she was initially annoyed that Zhang Fei [5] ignored her, the corners of Qiu Meixuan’s lips lifted slightly after she said that. ’Haha! He’s still young, but he has the guts to openly challenge Tianhe!’ "Hmm?" Ming Tianhe narrowed his eyes. "What can you do to me with your weak cultivation? I don’t care if Qing Qiu’er is already your woman, but I want her, and I will definitely get her." Zhang Fei [5] smiled faintly in response to that. "Sect Master Ming, your cultivation is indeed much higher than mine, but you are no different from other dual cultivators, and you are lacking in many things because your brain is only filled with sex." "Pftt! Hahaha!" Qiu Yue and all the female elders laughed when they heard that. Qiu Meixuan almost laughed because of Zhang Fei [5]’s words, but she suppressed her laughter so as not to make Ming Tianhe enraged. ’This kid! I want to see how far he dares to challenge Tianhe.’ Ru Xian looked at Zhang Fei [5] with a faint smile on her face, especially since she had never met anyone who dared to so blatantly challenge Ming Tianhe; even the families of his victims never dared to do that. Ming Tianhe’s face turned red and black with anger, especially since the female elders kept laughing at him. However, Zhang Fei [5] immediately activated his sword, soul, and dual cultivation domains at the same time, shocking not only him but also Qiu Meixuan and Ru Xian. ’Three domains at once!’ Ming Tianhe, Qiu Meixuan, and Ru Xian frowned as they sensed that their Qi was flowing out by itself and entering Zhang Fei [5]’s body, followed by a strong pressure on their souls. Zhang Fei [5] did not stop there, and he created several swords made of Qi, pointing them at Ming Tianhe. "Do you understand the difference between us, Sect Master Ming? Your cultivation is indeed high, but you are not a fighter cultivator like me. Even if you can suppress me with your high cultivation, I am still superior in real combat, and I am fully confident in defeating you in a one-on-one fight." Ming Tianhe clenched both of his fists tightly and wanted to attack Zhang Fei [5], but Serpentera and Tian Kui suddenly appeared on both sides of them, and their cultivation greatly shocked him and his two women. ’Since when does this sect have such powerful guardian beasts?’ Zhang Fei [5] canceled his three domains and spoke to him. "Today is the opening ceremony of our new sect, so I would rather not spoil it with a fight. If you are still interested in attending our event, Elder Hua Xiang will lead the three of you to look around our new areas while waiting for the other guests to arrive." "Let’s go, Tianhe! I’m curious about the changes in this sect." Qiu Meixuan took Meng Tianhe’s hand. "Elder Hua, please show us around." "Please follow me." Hua Xiang immediately flew away, followed by Ru Xian and Qiu Meixuan, who pulled Ming Tianhe along. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚 "Hahaha!" Tian Kui laughed after they left. "You are truly bold, master. However, that man is indeed weak despite his high cultivation, and I’m sure you can defeat him in just a few moves." Serpentera nodded in agreement. "In fact, the people from the Yin-Yang Pavilion you brought with you are much better than that man, Master. If their cultivation is equal, I believe they will have no trouble defeating him." "Yeah." Zhang Fei [5] nodded at them. "That’s why I didn’t hold myself back, and I openly challenged him. If he still thinks about snatching Qing Qiu’er from me, I won’t have any qualms about beating or killing him." "I think you should beat him up and take his sect from him, Master." Tian Kui then pointed toward the Blazing Union Sect. "There’s a Yang Celestial Lake in their sect, which would greatly benefit you and everyone close to you." Zhang Fei [5] shook his head. "I do want to obtain the Yang Celestial Lake, but this isn’t the right time to do so, especially since this sect is about to begin a new era. If I attack them now, the cultivators in this domain will probably join forces to attack us directly." "It’s the opening day of your new sect, but you’re already thinking of such a thing." Zhang Fei [5] and the others looked at Feng Yao, who had just appeared with Feng Tian, ​​Feng Jiu, and three other women. Their attire made Mei Ruyan and the remaining female elders gasp in shock. ’What are the people from the Blazing Nirvana Sect doing in our sect? Could it be that the woman leading them is the famous Empress Huo Yanling? I heard the people from that domain would never move without her, but they are here now.’ "Girls, he is Zhang Fei." Feng Yao then introduced her three subordinates to him. "They are Huo Lanyin, Huo Hao’er, and Huo Yu’er. Lanyin is the best female alchemist in this realm, Hao’er is more interested in artifacts and ruins, and Yu’er is more interested in arrays." All the female elders held their breath after Feng Yao introduced the three women, making them even more certain that she was Empress Huo Yanling. "Zhang Fei, I want to compete in alchemy with you today." Huo Lanyin suddenly issued a challenge. "As expected." Huo Hao’er and Huo Yu’er shook their heads. "Sister Lanyin’s spirit flares up every time she meets a skilled alchemist." - To Be Continued -
