Chaotic Sword God

Chapter 3558: Elder Dao

“How can we do that? If it’s mixed-blood clansmen with lowly cultivation, then it’s fine no matter how many of them die. It’ll be cleansing our sect’s bloodline to a certain degree anyway. However, if their cultivation has reached Immortal Emperor, then we should value them. Even if they have mixed blood, we should view them as equals. After all, even our Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants doesn’t have that many Immortal Emperors. Every expert like that we gain will increase the higher level strength of our sect in an extremely significant manner,” a great elder said.

However, he was met with an objection very quickly. A great elder seated beside him retorted mercilessly, “What kind of existence is our Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants in the Immortals’ World? With the strength of our Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, do we still need to care about a few Immortal Emperors? Immortal Emperors are indeed a big deal in the Immortals’ World, but the status of our Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants completely arises from our supreme ancestors. As long as we have our ancestors, the status of our Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants is unshakeable. As for Immortal Emperors, so what if we have a few more? They won’t be able to influence the sect.”

“Great elder Hong is correct. Our status comes from our ancestors. Immortal Emperor’s don’t have much of an impact on our sect. I support the decision to eliminate our mixed-blood branch and bring order to chaos so that our sect’s bloodline is purified once more.”

“Everyone, please watch what you say. Regardless of whether the existence of the mixed-blood branch has an effect on our sect’s strength or not, there is something that you can’t forget. The mixed-blood branch now has ancestor Ling behind them. Since ancestor Ling has not spoken, it’s best if we stop fretting over the existence of the mixed-blood branch. Our branch does not have too many conflicts of interest with the mixed-blood branch. If we really were to go after them, we’d have other branches doing so before us.”

The great elders in the tower discussed the mixed-blood branch for a good while. Despite being from the same branch, they all possessed their own opinions about the existence of the mixed-blood branch.

However, there was something that they could agree on. Regardless of whether they supported or rejected the mixed-blood branch, they all possessed some prejudice towards them.

The Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants placed extremely great emphasis on bloodline.

At the same time, in another tower elsewhere in the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants, three elderly figures paced around anxiously.

Their presences had all reached Immortal Emperor. They were all great elders of the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants.

At this moment, a figure silently appeared in the tower. He was also an old man with a ruddy and sagely demeanour, giving off a bearing of otherworldliness. He seemed like an enlightened immortal that had transcended the clutches of secularity.

“What exactly happened? Why did you call me out from seclusion in such a hurry?” the old man looked at the three people in the tower and asked with a frown.

“Elder Dao, you’ve finally emerged. There’s terrible, terrible news. Xiang Shi has been swallowed by the Immortal Devouring Orchid from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. His fate is now unknown. No one knows how much longer he can last for.”

“The Immortal Devouring Orchid from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was left behind by the Star Clustered Ancestor in the past. Its strength is on par with Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperors. With Xiang Shi’s strength as a Seventh Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor, he stands no chance at all against the daemon orchid.”

“Elder Dao, you have to find a way to save Xiang Shi. He’s a pillar of support for our branch. Without him, our status in the sect will be in even greater danger.”

As soon as the old man referred to as elder Dao appeared, the three old men waiting anxiously in the tower spoke up in a hurry. Despite all being Immortal Emperors, they struggled to maintain their composure. They seemed extremely worried.

Before elder Dao, they were extremely polite. Not only was elder Dao the flagbearer of the mixed-blood branch, helping the mixed-blood branch earn a certain level of status in the sect, but he was also a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor!

The Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants had over thirty Immortal Emperor great elders in total.

However, the entire sect only had three that had reached the Ninth Heavenly Layer.

Elder Dao was one of the them!

Elder Dao frowned and said, “I’ve only just emerged, so I don’t understand what’s happened. Tell me in detail.”

Afterwards, the three Immortal Emperors from the mixed-blood branch told him everything they knew without holding back. They possessed an extremely impressive amount of information. They were basically informed about everything that the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens had done.

“Is this information accurate? Has Xiang Shi really fallen into the hands of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens? Was Chen Shuzhi really executed by the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens?” elder Dao asked with a sunken face.

“It’s completely accurate, especially with regard to Chen Shuzhi. Xiang Yangtian personally witnessed his execution by the master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens.”

“Xiang Yangtian personally witnessed Chen Shuzhi’s execution? Hmph, throughout all these years of lying low in the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, Chen Shuzhi has made tremendous contributions. Even ancestor Ling appreciates this child and looks at him differently, yet he’s been executed right in front of an Immortal Emperor of another branch. With how much indifference they’ve shown, the people from the other branches should be ready for ancestor Ling’s wrath,” elder Dao flew into a fury and called out angrily.

“Elder Dao, Xiang Yangtian said that the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens was protected by an Immortal Devouring Orchid, so even he was powerless. After all, Xiang Yangtian is only a Third Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor,” a great elder from the mixed-blood branch said carefully.

“That’s an excuse. He just didn’t want to put in the effort. There is indeed some difficulty for our branch to deal with a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor Immortal Devouring Orchid, but it’s nothing to the other branches. After all, when the ancestors left, they left behind some special items with them,” elder Dao said sternly. He glanced past the three of them slowly as his expression suddenly changed. “Where’s Xiang Shan? Why isn’t he present for something so major?”

The mixed-blood branch in the Immortal Sect of Colossal Elephants had a total of six great elders. Apart from Xiang Shan and Xiang Shi, all of the Immortal Emperors of the branch were present.

“Elder Dao, Xiang Shan has gone missing. We can’t reach him. Xiang Shi has been searching for Xiang Shan the entire time previously. We don’t know if he found any leads.”

“We can deal with the matter of Xiang Shan later. Elder Dao, we better find a way to save Xiang Shi quickly.”

The three Immortal Emperors spoke up urgently. They were extremely worried about Xiang Shi’s safety. Their branch only had Xiang Shi and elder Dao as late Immortal Emperors. The rest were all early or mid Immortal Emperors.

As a result, Xiang Shi possessed extremely great status in the mixed-blood branch. Without him, the mixed-blood branch’s authority would be drastically impacted.

“With Xiang Shi trapped, it’s the sect that’s embarrassed in the end. The other branches might look down on us inside the sect, but now that we need to band together, they can forget about just standing by and watching on.” Elder Dao’s gaze was sharp. He said coldly, “I’ll go and find the people in charge of the other branches.”
