Chapter 1376: Chapter 1373: Just Have to Accept the Bad Luck

Li Shangheng was in a very bad mood.

Today was supposed to be the wedding day of his son and Hongying from the Li Mountain Sect.

Although the Li Mountain Sect is a second-rate sect, Hongying’s talent is quite strong. At a young age, she already possesses a Great Ascension Phase Cultivation Level. With proper cultivation, it wouldn’t take long for the Qingyun Sect to see a Great Ascension Period Peak Cultivator.

This was the most significant event for the Li Mountain Sect in a thousand years. Li Shangheng had sent out many invitations, inviting the powerful figures from several major sects in Yaohua Country to witness the event.

Not only that, even the palace had sent a prince to attend, showing the importance of this event.

However...

What Li Shangheng did not expect was that the group returning with the bride was suddenly blocked.

Not only were the elders killed, but even the bride was taken away.

This incident deeply enraged Li Shangheng. He would never forget the faces of those who came to the wedding after his son told them about this incident.

It was as if he had been nailed to the pillar of shame, becoming a lifetime disgrace and blemish for him.

Afterward, those who attended the wedding gradually left, and Li Shangheng, unable to swallow the insult, sent the Grand Elder with the elite of Qingyun Sect to besiege the one who had snatched the bride.

But what he didn’t expect was that only the Grand Elder and his son returned, and both of them appeared terrified.

”Sect Master, this old man failed in his duties, please punish me!” The Grand Elder lowered his head, full of shame.

”Father, it’s not the Grand Elder’s fault!” Li Tianyang was filled with fear: ”It’s all because of that Xu Wendong, that fellow’s power is too strong, he’s simply not human.”

Li Shangheng gave a cold snort, his voice deep: ”He’s just a Great Ascension Period Peak Cultivator, how strong can he possibly be? Could he have broken through our Qingyun Sect’s Qingyang Sword Array?”

The Grand Elder sighed softly, his words full of helplessness: ”Sect Master, although Xu Wendong only has Great Ascension Phase Cultivation Level, he has mastered the Thunder Law, and our Qingyun Sect’s Qingyang Sword Array was shattered with just a snap of his fingers.”

”What?” Li Shangheng’s pupils trembled violently, a trace of shock flickered in his eyes, and he immediately said: ”Even if he comprehended the Power of Laws, breaking the Qingyang Sword Array with a finger snap... that’s too terrifying!”

The Grand Elder, still in shock, said: ”Not only that, his vital energy is vast as the sea, and his physical body is comparable to an Immortal Artifact. Moreover, he’s incredibly fast, even I was no match for him.”

”Even when I used the Immortal-binding Rope, we couldn’t trap him.”

Li Tianyang wore a hopeless expression: ”I even used the Void Imprisonment Talisman, and only then did the Grand Elder manage to bind him with the Immortal-binding Rope, but... that guy still managed to break free from the Immortal-binding Rope’s constraints.”

”Thankfully, the Grand Elder reacted quickly, taking me with him, breaking through the void and escaping, otherwise the consequences would have been unimaginable.”

Li Shangheng stood there, blood draining from his face, a storm of turmoil rising in his heart: ”A Great Ascension Period Cultivator, how can his power be this terrifying?”

As the Sect Master of one of Yaohua Country’s top Cultivation Forces, Li Shangheng had come across a few remarkable Heavenly Prides.

But someone as terrifying as Xu Wendong was unheard of.

The Grand Elder spoke with a heavy heart, voicing his suspicions: ”Sect Master, if I’m not mistaken, that fellow possesses the legendary Ancient Sacred Body, otherwise his vital energy wouldn’t be so overwhelming.”

”Moreover, when cultivated to a certain extent, the Ancient Sacred Body can become Impervious to All Methods, which explains why he could ignore the Immortal-binding Rope.”

”And why, despite being of Great Ascension Phase, he could crush me.”

”All of these facts prove that he has an extraordinary constitution.”

Hearing the mention of the Ancient Sacred Body, a feeling of powerlessness surged in Li Shangheng’s heart, and he sighed: ”If that’s the case, we’ll have to consider ourselves unlucky!”

He deeply wanted to wash away his shame, but the power Xu Wendong had demonstrated was too great, and he was unwilling to continue being his enemy.

After all, the Ancient Sacred Body is intrinsically terrifying.

Not to mention he’s a loose cultivator.

”Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”

Just at that moment.

Those heavily injured cultivators of the Qingyun Sect returned, and one of them, suppressing his weakness, stepped forward anxiously: ”Master, things aren’t good, Xu Wendong declared that he will arrive at our Qingyun Sect tomorrow at three-quarters past noon and said for us all to wash our necks clean, as he plans to uproot our Qingyun Sect!”

Upon hearing these words, a surge of overwhelming anger flashed in Li Shangheng’s eyes: ”That Xu is pushing it too far, he’s going too far! This Sect Master is magnanimous and doesn’t wish to bicker with him, yet here he is, boasting about slaughtering our Qingyun Sect.”

”I would like to see if he truly dares to come to our Qingyun Sect.”

”If he dares to come, this Sect Master will ensure he comes but never returns!”

Li Tianyang, also filled with rage, said: ”Indeed, our Qingyun Sect has been established for tens of thousands of years and is the top Immortal Sect in Yaohua Country, with thousands of disciples and deep reserves, how can a lone cultivator hope to contend with us?”

”Not to mention anything else, just our Qingyun Sect’s Mountain-protecting Great Array alone can shatter his soul, leaving him without a grave!”

”If he dares to come, he will surely pay a heavy price!”

The Grand Elder, however, did not agree: ”Sect Master needn’t be so angry; if I’m not mistaken, Xu Wendong will certainly not appear at Qingyun Sect tomorrow.”

”Although he is gifted and powerful, I don’t believe he’s a brainless person. He wouldn’t be rash enough to oppose our entire Qingyun Sect.”

”His claim of coming to our Qingyun Sect tomorrow at three-quarters past noon is actually a strategic retreat, a ploy to buy himself some time.”

”He’s surely thinking of sneaking away from Yaohua Country using a teleportation array before then.”

Hearing this, Li Shangheng’s anger subsided somewhat, and he couldn’t deny: ”The Grand Elder makes a valid point, and if that’s the case, there’s no need to take his words to heart.”

”This time, let’s chalk it up to bad luck!” Saying this, he heaved a helpless sigh.

------

Li Mountain Sect.

Yue Fenghua’s face was ashen, his eyes flickered with fear: ”What? Xu Wendong not only defeated the Grand Elder of the Qingyun Sect and broke the Qingyang Sword Array, but he also spoke arrogantly about annihilating the entire Qingyun Sect?”

Yue Fenghua was truly confused. He originally thought of using the Qingyun Sect’s experts to remove Xu Wendong; after all, in all his years, he had never been slapped in the face like this.

But he would have never imagined, even in his dreams, that Xu Wendong would defeat the Grand Elder of the Qingyun Sect and break the Qingyang Sword Array.

More ridiculously.

He even made grandiose claims about heading to the Qingyun Sect tomorrow at three-quarters past noon to uproot it entirely.

After snapping back to reality, Yue Fenghua let out a heavy, cold snort: ”Xu Wendong’s talent may be extraordinary, but he’s far too arrogant. An arrogant person is bound to face calamity.”

”The Qingyun Sect has been around for so many years, how could an ant like him contend against it?”

”If he dares to head to Qingyun Sect, this Sect Master will chop off his head and make it into a chamber pot for him!”
