Calculated by the Entire Sect? Don't Cry When Your Whole Family is Slaughtered! - Chapter 8

Boom—

A loud bang echoed in the Enforcement Hall, instantly scattering dust and shaking the hall.

The extreme spiritual energy, the moment Shen Lian used Ye Fan as a shield, instantly vanished.

As the dust settled, two peerless figures appeared before Shen Lian.

The Peak Master of Heavenly Sword Peak, Yuwen Tianzhao.

The Peak Master of Crimson Flame Peak, Dongfang Lie.

“Void Refinement Realm? This is exciting!”

Seeing the newcomers, Shen Lian was not afraid but instead rejoiced, his eyes filled with intense battle intent, gradually becoming feverish.

“Let go.”

Yuwen Tianzhao had no unnecessary nonsense, speaking coldly to Shen Lian, allowing no room for questioning.

“Ah—”

However, upon hearing the words from the opposite side, Shen Lian’s grip on Ye Fan’s hand tightened even more, causing Ye Fan to wail in pain.

Yuwen Tianzhao immediately frowned, and the black sword on his back began to hum faintly.

He was a person of cold emotions, rarely showing joy or anger on his face.

The sword’s movement indicated that his emotions were already extremely agitated.

“Rebellious disciple, didn’t you hear me tell you to let go?!”

Dongfang Lie’s rage soared to the sky. Seeing Ye Fan suffer, he wished he could immediately kill Shen Lian, this scoundrel of the sect.

“You two wastes, what tone are you using to order me?”

“Ah—”

Shen Lian tightened his grip again, and a bone-cracking sound echoed instantly.

Amidst Ye Fan’s agonizing wails, his shoulder blade was literally crushed.

“Fan’er!”

Dongfang Lie, seeing Ye Fan in pain, showed a rare look of concern in his usually fiery temperament.

Swish—

Meanwhile, Yuwen Tianzhao’s Heavenly Grade spiritual sword was now in his hand, his gaze locked onto Shen Lian, full of chilling light.

They had received news from the disciples that Shen Lian had suddenly gone mad and started a massacre in the Enforcement Hall, not only killing eight hundred inner disciples but also sparing none of the four sect elders. They had rushed over immediately.

In fact, they were skeptical about Shen Lian’s sudden rampage.

Because throughout all these years of interaction, Shen Lian had left an impression of being weak and easily bullied on the entire sect, not to mention his cultivation was supposedly crippled.

As for him suddenly going mad?

Was that even possible?

But when the dense scent of blood in the Enforcement Hall filled their nostrils, and they saw the ghastly scene of scattered limbs and broken bodies, they had no choice but to believe it.

There was no time to investigate why Shen Lian had suddenly changed like this. The most urgent task was to save Ye Fan.

After all, Ye Fan was crucial to the Heavenly Feather Sect’s rise.

Yuwen Tianzhao pointed his long sword: “Shen Lian, I’m giving you one chance. Immediately release Ye Fan, then admit your guilt and submit to the law, and accept the sect’s judgment again. Otherwise…”

“Otherwise, what can you do?”

Shen Lian activated his internal energy for a moment, and Ye Fan was immediately forced to kneel by an immense pressure.

Yuwen Tianzhao and Dongfang Lie, seeing this, instantly grew worried.

At the same time, they felt a genuine unfamiliarity with Shen Lian’s current arrogant demeanor.

“You self-righteous wastes, are you even qualified to judge me, Shen Lian?”

With a deep hum, Yuwen Tianzhao and Dongfang Lie felt a powerful pressure sweep towards them, causing them to involuntarily take half a step back.

“Why has his strength suddenly recovered, and the pressure he emits is so formidable?”

“How is this possible? How could this scoundrel Shen Lian rise again? Is he perhaps, had he been hiding his strength all along?”

Both of them harbored different thoughts, and neither dared to act rashly.

As for Shen Lian, during the confrontation, he quickly understood the characteristics of their cultivation techniques and their cultivation levels through the original owner’s memories.

“One Void Refinement Second Layer, one Void Refinement Third Layer.”

“Yuwen Tianzhao, his main combat technique is the Eight Gates Golden Lock Sword.”

“Dongfang Lie, his main combat technique is the Silver Serpent Devouring Flame Palm.”

“To encounter such an exciting battle just after returning, I truly woke up at the right time.”

“Then today, let your defeat celebrate my rebirth!”

Having made up his mind, a sinister smile appeared on Shen Lian’s lips.

Dongfang Lie roared: “Shen Lian, don’t make things worse! Look around! How many fellow disciples have you killed? You have already fallen into the demonic path!”

“Hahahaha!”

Responding to Dongfang Lie was a burst of wild laughter mixed with playful disdain.

“Put away your ridiculous and hypocritical face. When you righteously questioned me, did you ever consider why things escalated to this point?”

“You say I killed them, but did you ask for a reason? Of course, you wouldn’t think about that question.

After all, the waste kneeling before me is the object you even dumber wastes painstakingly cultivated. Anything related to him is always my problem. You never investigate the truth, and even when facts are laid bare, it’s still my problem.

But don’t misunderstand, what I’m saying today isn’t to prove anything or make you feel remorse for your actions.

It’s simply to let you know why you’re dying. After all, dying for a reason is the last act of mercy I, Shen Lian, bestow upon you!”

As his words fell, Shen Lian directly kicked Ye Fan away.

This kick was incredibly vicious, the infused spiritual energy directly bursting his balls.

“Ah~”

With a tragic scream, Ye Fan, still in mid-air, heard the sound of cracking eggs and instantly fainted.

“Fan’er!”

Dongfang Lie leaped forward, catching Ye Fan, and with a face full of concern, helped him aside to check his injuries.

“You, die!”

At the same moment, Yuwen Tianzhao directly unleashed a sword qi, aiming for Shen Lian’s vital point.

Boom—

With a flick of his folding fan, Shen Lian turned around, activating all his spiritual energy to protect his body, blocking the fatal blow.

After a loud explosion, Shen Lian’s tall figure stood firm.

He pointed a finger: “Come, let me see if the sword of the Heavenly Sword Peak Master can take my life, Shen Lian.”

The provocative tone, the arrogant posture, were completely different from the pitiful image of Shen Lian in their memories.

This huge contrast ignited Yuwen Tianzhao’s rage.

How could he allow a sect scoundrel to provoke him with such an attitude?

In an instant, a rapid succession of sword strikes followed, and as sword qi permeated the air, the Enforcement Hall resounded with metallic clangs.

“Fan’er, how are you? Don’t scare me—”

On the other side, Dongfang Lie, the short-tempered fellow, appeared exceptionally benevolent only in front of Ye Fan, showing a hint of a senior’s demeanor.

Seeing Ye Fan’s eyes roll back and his face twitching, this old fart actually started to shed tears.

“Fan’er, I’ve always treated you as my own son. If anything happens to you, what will I do?”

However, as his words fell, Shen Lian’s mocking voice echoed in his ears.

“What you should do is inform the entire sect to prepare for a feast. If there are no surprises, today, the funeral feast for your bastard son and your bastard father can be held together. It will save a lot of trouble, hahahaha—”

“Shen! Lian!”

With a furious roar, Dongfang Lie’s eyes were bloodshot, his entire body turning crimson.

“I will dismember you and avenge Fan’er!”

“Old waste, save your strength for the funeral wails. Watching your touching scene of father-son filial piety is truly disgusting and makes me want to vomit!”

“Die!”

Dongfang Lie’s patience finally snapped. His entire body radiated scorching flames, and he joined the battle alongside Yuwen Tianzhao.

“Two against one? Exciting!”

Facing two Void Refinement Realm cultivators at the same time, Shen Lian’s battle intent grew even more intense.

This thrill of fighting, he hadn’t experienced in a very, very long time!
