Chapter 311: Shocking Everyone
The Thunder Continent has a total of Eight States and Seventy-Six Counties, with the Great Yuan Province surrounded by four major states: Linwu Prefecture, Jizhou, Lingyun Prefecture, and Xuan Prefecture. Among them, Jizhou is closest to Great Yuan Province, so it is natural that the first to arrive at Great Yuan Sect is the Sword Pavilion from Jizhou!
Dozens of terrifying Sword Auras flashed by, reaching the skies above Great Yuan Sect in an instant. Each person was standing on a flying sword, and leading them was Zhuang Yuanhang, the Seven Swords True Monarch of Sword Pavilion.
"What... what is going on here?" Even the elders of Sword Pavilion, who had seen much in their time, could not help but show deep shock at the scene before them.
In the vast territory of Great Yuan Sect, there was not a single person to be found. Not only was the protective grand formation gone, but even the original mountain gate had turned into a desolate wasteland. Great Yuan Sect was a Sixth-Rank Sect with thousands of disciples, an existence that could stand alongside Sword Pavilion. Seeing this scene, even Zhuang Yuanhang's expression turned serious. He knew that there was an incredibly powerful ancestor hidden within Great Yuan Sect; could it be that this ancestor had also died? He found it hard to believe.
"Are you all looking for me?"
A calm voice rang out in front of them, startling everyone. Despite having so many experts present, they had not sensed someone hiding right before them. All their faces darkened as they looked up to find three individuals standing before them.
One was a middle-aged man in gray clothes, carrying a long sword on his back. An extremely fierce Sword Qi emanated from him, reaching the Saint Level Pinnacle. Beside him stood a stout monk holding a massive sabre, casually observing everyone with an extraordinary aura.
However, the most remarkable among them was a young man in front of them with long purple hair and dressed in a white robe. Although he merely stood there quietly, his noble aura made everyone feel as if they were looking up at him, reminiscent of how Sun Zhe once gazed upon Thunder Abyss. This was a kind of innate nobility stemming from his bloodline, merging the Blood of the War Ancestor and inheriting the legacy of Thunder God Emperor. In terms of bloodline alone, he had completely surpassed ordinary people; even if faced with a Saint-Level Expert, it would be no exception.
"You... you are Sun Zhe..."
At that moment, an extremely shocked voice emerged from among the many elders of Sword Pavilion. Under everyone's gaze, a White-Clad Woman slowly stepped out from the crowd, her trembling eyes fixed intently on Sun Zhe. Her delicate hands clutched her clothing tightly as disbelief filled her youthful face.
Zhuang Ruoxuan! The name flashed through Sun Zhe's mind; she was indeed that proud woman from Xuan Lei Sect. To be honest, Sun Zhe did not have much fondness for this arrogant woman back then. Yet it was precisely because of her gratitude for his small kindness that she repaid him in kind. If it hadn't been for Zhuang Yuanhang's assistance back then, he might have been killed by Golden Thunder Elder with a single strike.
"Indeed, I am Sun Zhe. How have you been lately, Sister Zhuang?"
Countless thoughts raced through his mind as he recalled past events. A smile appeared on Sun Zhe's lips as he sincerely asked Zhuang Ruoxuan.
"I? Heh heh, I'm doing well..." Upon hearing Sun Zhe's response, a hint of bitterness flashed across Zhuang Ruoxuan's lips as if she remembered something. Tears welled up in her eyes as she slightly closed them and tilted her head back before slowly replying.
"Sun Zhe..." At this moment, Zhuang Yuanhang also stepped forward and looked at the young man who seemed to stand at the pinnacle of supremacy. A hint of bitterness appeared in his gaze as well; however, his bitterness differed from that of Zhuang Ruoxuan's. His sorrow stemmed from the role reversal between him and Sun Zhe. Back then, Sun Zhe was merely a struggling Cultivator; now he had grown into an existence that could stand on par with or even surpass him.
"Sun Zhe pays respects to Senior Zhuang and thanks you for saving my life back then." Sun Zhe always distinguished between gratitude and resentment. Indeed, Zhuang Yuanhang had saved his life; although it may not have been entirely voluntary, the outcome remained the same. He still referred to Zhuang Yuanhang as his senior out of respect.
However, this address only deepened the bitterness on Zhuang Yuanhang's face. He waved his hand dismissively and forced a smile as he spoke.
"We, the people of Cultivation, respect the strong. Since you have already reached Holy Rank, there is no need to call me senior; we can refer to each other as equals. My Sword Pavilion and the Great Yuan Sect made a pact to support each other long ago. Now, I have come here with the elders of my pavilion for the sake of the Great Yuan Sect. What has happened to them?"
Zhuang Yuanhang's gaze involuntarily turned towards the ruins, especially at the hundred-foot-deep Giant Pit. His eyelids couldn't help but twitch slightly; such power was definitely beyond what an ordinary Divine Ability could achieve.
Just as Sun Zhe was about to respond, ripples appeared in the Void once again, clearly indicating that another powerful being had teleported here. However, what first appeared before everyone was not a human but a group of flying beasts of various sizes. Each beast exuded an immense aura, clearly having reached the level of high-tier monsters.
On the backs of those beasts stood men and women with equally impressive presences. Judging by their attire, they were evidently from the Lingyun Prefecture's Yuling Sect. The leader among them was a six-foot-tall boy sitting on the back of a massive Black Tortoise, his face full of kind smiles. However, upon seeing the state of the Great Yuan Sect, his expression immediately changed just like those from Sword Pavilion.
"True Monarch, what is going on here?"
The six-foot boy's gaze instantly turned towards Zhuang Yuanhang. His aged voice carried a strong sense of shock and anger. Regardless of the relationship between Yuling Sect and Great Yuan Sect, the Four Major Sects had long established a pattern of mutual support across four states. The destruction of Great Yuan Sect would mean turmoil in the southwestern part of Thunder Continent, which was not something they wished to see.
"Turtle Spirit Friend, we meet again."
This was not said by Seven Swords True Monarch Zhuang Yuanhang but by Sun Zhe standing beside him. The elder of Yuling Sect, Turtle Spirit Boy, had very few peers on Thunder Continent who could address him as a friend, but Sun Zhe certainly qualified.
"You... you are that guy from Evil Demon Sea back then..."
Turtle Spirit Boy suddenly stood up from Black Tortoise's back, looking at Sun Zhe in disbelief with astonishment written all over his face. At their level of cultivation, one could easily remember faces; although he did not have a deep impression of Sun Zhe back then, he quickly recalled it after taking a closer look.
However, he couldn't understand how someone who was clearly just a child from Realm of Thunder Sovereign had managed to reach Saint Level Pinnacle in such a short time. Moreover, his aura seemed far beyond that of an ordinary Saint Level Pinnacle. Suddenly, he seemed to realize something; glancing at the ruins of Great Yuan Sect and then turning back to Sun Zhe, he was taken aback and pointed at him.
"Great Yuan Sect is your..."
The rest of his words remained unspoken, but everyone understood what he meant.
"Perhaps we should wait a moment longer; an old friend will be arriving soon..." Sun Zhe did not answer him directly but instead looked towards the direction of Great Yuan Sect in Southern Region. Following his words, everyone turned their gazes toward that direction.
At that moment, a pair of cultivators dressed in purple robes flew over here. Each one exuded an astonishing aura and emitted blinding purple light as they moved swiftly; they were part of the Golden Thunder Sect's team that controlled the entire Xuan Prefecture. Leading them was none other than Golden Thunder Elder!
"Sun Zhe! How did you end up here?"
Unlike Zhuang Yuanhang and Turtle Spirit Boy, Golden Thunder Elder recognized Sun Zhe immediately upon appearing here. Especially when he sensed the overwhelming Law aura emanating from Sun Zhe's body, his heart trembled violently as if he had encountered Ancient Thunder God himself. The Thunder Power within him felt uncontrollable, and he experienced an overwhelming sense of submission rising within him.
Between the earth, there are countless beings cultivating Thunder Power, but the Thunder God Clan is undoubtedly one of the royal families, standing alongside the Ancient Thunder Dragon as one of the peak races on the Thunder Path. Now, Sun Zhe has inherited the legacy of the Thunder God Emperor, and his Thunder God Bloodline is many times stronger than that of the original Thunder Abyss, naturally possessing a similar aura.
"Back in the day when we entered the Evil Demon Sea together, aside from Yin Yu Zhen Ren, it seems we four gathered all at once," Sun Zhe reminisced about those days, involuntarily feeling a sense of nostalgia. He smiled slightly and spoke to everyone.
"Sun Zhe, what exactly do you want?" The Golden Thunder Elder's face showed no hint of a smile as he coldly addressed Sun Zhe. The current Sun Zhe was no longer the same person from back then; he did not believe that Sun Zhe would overlook what the Golden Thunder Sect had done to him in the past.
Hearing the Golden Thunder Elder's words, Sun Zhe slowly wiped the smile off his face. He turned his gaze towards the Golden Thunder Elder, his expression slightly tightening as he slowly said, "I don't want to pursue the matters of the past too much. Hand over that Thunder Giant Sword in your possession to me, and we will wipe out our grievances."
"If you had brought this up an hour ago, I would have agreed without hesitation. But now..." At this point, a deep bitterness surfaced on the Golden Thunder Elder's face. He finally understood why that esteemed person suddenly wanted to claim this Thunder Giant Sword.
"Who is it?" Sun Zhe's expression darkened as he coldly asked.
"It is I!"
A faint voice suddenly echoed in the Void, and a terrifying force descended upon the entire area. The atmosphere was instantly enveloped by an unimaginable aura, so powerful that everyone present changed color.
