When they heard the words “Sect Leader” from Gujiang, everyone present was so shocked that hints of disbelief appeared in their eyes.

There was only one person whom Gujiang could call Sect Leader.

That person was the one who had killed two of the Murong clan's Sages not long ago — Chu Kuangren!

“He… He's Chu Kuangren!”

“It can't be. No way, that's impossible! How is Chu Kuangren able to refine a Ninth-Level Sage Grade Supreme Pill! Are you kidding me?”

“I can't believe that lunatic is here too.”

“Rumors say that Chu Kuangren has an exquisite look and an otherworldly temperament. Now that I've seen him in person today, I must say that his appearance is truly extraordinary. I'm afraid there won't be someone like him in this world.”

Bouts of discussion started within the crowd.

No matter how, the crowd of Alchemists could not a.s.sociate an Alchemy Grandmaster who had refined a Ninth-Level Sage Grade Supreme Pill with Chu Kuangren who had killed two Sages.

That was just too crazy!

“D*mn it, why is this guy here in the Fairfrost Valley?” Graygrill Sage's expression turned a little grim as he felt that things were getting complicated.

After learning what had happened from Gujiang, Chu Kuangren looked at Graygrill Sage and asked, “I don't know if you heard about this, but I'm quite a reasonable person. So in regards to what Gujiang has just told me, do you have anything to say for yourself?”

Graygrill Sage replied in a deep voice, “Chu Kuangren, he was the one who intervened in the affair between Sages. My decision not to kill him was already made for your sake.”

“That's what you can think of as a reply?”

A cold glint shot out from Chu Kuangren's eyes.

“Chu Kuangren, you really want to interfere in this matter?”

“First of all, the Iron Alchemy Pill Scroll belongs to the Fairfrost Sage, and because I was the one who helped fill up the pill recipes, I obtained the Alchemy Grandmaster's Inheritance. Based on this logic, parts of that inheritance belong to me as well.”

“Secondly, because I borrowed a special venue from the Fairfrost Sage to conduct alchemy, that means I owe her a favor in return. Logically speaking, I can't watch and do nothing when something bad is happening to her.”

“Thirdly, and this is the most important point of all, you've injured my Black Heaven Sect's people and I am the Black Heaven Sect Leader. Now in terms of logic, do you think I'd just sit back and do nothing?” Chu Kuangren's tone gradually became colder.

Just as he said, he was quite a reasonable person indeed. His three reasons had turned Graygrill Sage and even Master Lee speechless.

Everyone in the crowd could not help but be amazed by his words.

It was even more so for Fairfrost Sage, whose beautiful eyes dazzled brilliantly.

“Chu Kuangren, do you think that my Overlord Sage Tribe is afraid of you?” The Graygrill Sage stepped forwards and said coldly.

An overwhelming surge of Sage's aura instantly erupted from his body!

“Then do you think my Black Heaven Sect will be afraid of you?”

Similarly, an immeasurably razor-sharp Sword-based Daoist Rhyme exploded from Chu Kuangren's body. The two surges of domineering auras collided violently in the void.

It seemed as if the whole Fairfrost Valley was rumbling.

“Do you want to get in my way just because of a lone Sage who has no relation to your Black Heaven Sect at all?”

Graygrill Sage asked with a grim expression.

“That's not the only reason. I told you, the most crucial point is that you've indiscriminately injured someone from my Black Heaven Sect!”

“You… You're truly a lunatic just like the rumors say!”

Graygrill Sage was so enraged that his mouth twitched.

However, he did not dare to make a rash move since rumor had it that Chu Kuangren could kill two Sages. No matter how weak he was, his strength could still be on par with a Sage.

Besides, Fairfrost Sage was present as well. If a fight had started, it would be two against one, meaning that his chances of winning were not great.

“Let's leave!”

Finally, the Graygrill Sage decided to leave.

“What? n.o.ble Sage, are we leaving just like this?”

Master Lee was unwilling.

“I said, let's leave!”

Graygrill Sage stared menacingly at Master Lee.

With Chu Kuangren around, it would be impossible for them to get the Grandmaster's Inheritance. What else could they do if they stayed? Be a joke to others?

“Did I say you can leave?”

At that time, Chu Kuangren's voice rang out.

Everyone could not help but gasp when they heard that.

Even a Sage had given in to his demands, what else could he possibly want?

Graygrill Sage's expression was incredibly grim at that point. “Chu Kuangren, you better not go too far with this! What else do you want?”

“You've injured someone from my Black Heaven Sect, yet you dare to leave because you say so? Now, who's the one that has gone too far here!” Chu Kuangren yelled in a chilling tone.

At the same time, he twisted the Descendant Self Sword in his hand and a Sword-based Daoist Rhyme instantly locked onto the Graygrill Sage. It was terrifyingly sharp that even a Sage's body could feel the stingingly painful sensation.

“You can leave if you want, but you'll need to sever one of your limbs first!”

“Chu Kuangren, you've gone too far now!”

Graygrill Sage roared.

Demanding that he sever one of his limbs?

One must know that he possessed the body of a Sage. If he were to sever one of his limbs, it could not be attached or regrown that easily.

Did he think that everyone had an Immortal Body just like him?

If one of Graygrill Sage's limbs were to be severed, he would require a tremendous amount of resources to recover from an injury of that scale. The price to pay was just that great.

“Do you want to do it yourself, or shall I do it for you?”

Chu Kuangren asked indifferently.

“It seems like I'll have to gauge the limits of your abilities today after all.” The spiritual power within Graygrill Sage began to surge.

He could not sever one of his limbs that easily since that was not a question of his willingness but his image as a Sage instead.

If he were to simply cut off one of his limbs just like Chu Kuangren said so, where could he hide from all the embarra.s.sment?

“Fine, I do it myself.”

Chu Kuangren then took out his Sacred Emerald Sword Case.

“Brilliant Heaven Shaking Punch!”

Graygrill Sage instantly took action. A surge of terrifying fist energy circulated between his fingers before he unleashed his attack which blasted out with a violent and unparalleled power!

A huge black fist was immediately shot out!

The void rumbled as b.a.l.l.s of shockwaves exploded like crazy!

Chu Kuangren then patted his sword case.

When the sword case opened, countless pieces of treasured swords flew out, and a total of three hundred and sixty-five swords formed into an incredibly powerful sword formation!

As soon as the two forms of attack collided, the powerful streaks of sword qi instantly pierced through the black fist and riddled it full of holes.

“What?” Graygrill Sage's expression changed.

Just when he was shocked by the might of the sword formation, the three hundred and sixty-five swords had already arrived before him, surrounding and trapping him within it.

The mysterious rotation of the four seasons and their respective natural occurrences made it difficult for him to fight back!

That sword formation was so horrifying!

Chu Kuangren could already use the sword formation to trap two Sages when he was just at the early-stage of his Honorable Realm cultivation, let alone when he was currently at the middle-stage of his Honorable Realm cultivation.

As for Graygrill Sage, he alone was left to face him.

Trapped inside the sword formation, Graygrill Sage continuously released bursts of fist energy that hit the sword formation. However, his efforts were futile.

The sword formation was just too unpredictable!

With the Graygrill Sage's power alone, he could never fend off against it at all.

Looking at Chu Kuangren who was suppressing Graygrill Sage, the crowd could not help but gulp in fear. They felt that the world was just too crazy.

An Honorable suppressing a Sage alone?

Although they had heard the news that Chu Kuangren had killed two Sages, the shock they felt still paled in comparison to witnessing it before their eyes!

Not long after, Graygrill Sage's body had suffered numerous cuts and wounds, all of which were caused by the streaks of sword qi within the sword formation.

On the other hand, Chu Kuangren who was outside the sword formation was controlling the sword qi calmly and orderly. It was like a predator toying with its prey, and it almost made Graygrill Sage spew blood.

“Not good, this sword formation is just too terrifying! I won't last long inside this!”

A ruthless but determined look could then be seen in Graygrill Sage's eyes.

He gritted his teeth as he formed a knife hand sign with his right hand and brutally motioned it towards his left arm. A sound of flesh tearing rang out.

With blood spurting all over, Graygrill Sage brutally cut off his left arm and said with a pale face, “That's enough for you I suppose!”

“Sigh, you have to do it sooner or later anyway. What's the point of starting this fight then?” Chu Kuangren replied as he put away the sword formation.

“Let's leave!”

The Graygrill Sage felt that if he were to stay any longer, he would no doubt be p.i.s.sed to death if he was not killed by Chu Kuangren first.

Grabbing his severed limb, he then retreated with Master Lee in a disgraceful manner.
