I Am Unaware That I Am the Peerless Martial God Chapter 1471: Dive

A booming voice resonated, and an imposing pressure violently pushed forward!

Jin Weiyuan's legs felt weak from terror, and he immediately fell to his knees. However, after contemplating the words for a few moments, he was utterly bewildered and could only desperately beg for forgiveness.

Cousin, please listen to me!

How could I possibly possess treacherous intentions against the Tianyuan Sect?! Where is this accusation even coming from!

Jin Weiyuan felt genuinely wronged. He had been inexplicably rebuked by the other party and didn't even know his transgression, so he could only plead for mercy with a confused expression.

As if in response to his plea, a loud impact on the desk echoed through the hall!

Bang!

An even more daunting pressure radiated outwards, startling Jin Weiyuan so much that cold sweat beaded on his forehead, and his breathing grew ragged!

Simultaneously, the voice that followed was laced with undeniable fury!

You repeatedly stated that the Sect Master of the New Sword Sect possessed only rudimentary cultivation, barely surpassing your own, and that their expertise lay in palm techniques. You even claimed their supposed Grand Protector had vanished without a trace and was insignificant!

Yet, upon the Fourth Elder's personal investigation, both individuals were revealed to be experts of the Heavenly Sun Realm, wielding a formidable Sword Dao! Had it not been for the Fourth Elder's deep cultivation, he would have nearly met his demise on the spot during that confrontation!

You nearly caused our Tianyuan Sect to lose a vital asset, and you still refuse to admit the truth?!

Heavenly Sun Realm?

Formidable Sword Dao?!

How is this possible!

Upon hearing this, Jin Weiyuan’s eyes widened in astonishment!

It was only then that he observed his cousin, Jin Zhenyuan, seated upon the jade throne above, his countenance contorted with rage! Below the jade steps, the Fourth Elder, standing silently to the side, wore a grim and troubled expression!

Observing their faces, Jin Weiyuan understood this was no fabrication!

But he simply could not reconcile the fact that Yi Feng, whom he had encountered previously, was actually this powerful, nor that the so-called Grand Protector was significantly more than just a little strong?

It turned out.

Not only had he misjudged the situation, but he had also nearly precipitated a grave crisis?

The more he pondered, the greater his shock became. Jin Weiyuan struggled to accept this astounding revelation and instinctively shook his head, continuing to assert his innocence.

This...

This is impossible!

That New Sword Sect Master, Yi Feng, never employed any sword techniques during our encounter. He also appeared quite young; how could he possibly possess the cultivation of the Heavenly Sun Realm...

Witnessing his bewildered and disbelieving demeanor.

Jin Zhenyuan, occupying the high seat, grew increasingly incensed. His gaze was filled with the frustration of seeing potential wasted.

With matters having reached this point, you still fail to comprehend? Why would an expert of the Heavenly Sun Realm need to exert their full strength against someone like you! Merely because of your shallow judgment, you have jeopardized our grand designs. Our Jin clan was once a distinguished lineage in the imperial capital. How could we possibly have a foolish collateral relative like you? You are truly a disgrace to our clan!

Following a torrent of furious scolding, Jin Weiyuan finally regained a semblance of clarity. Mingled with fear and panic, he implored for mercy without cessation.

Forgive me, cousin! Please spare me, cousin!

I truly had no idea they possessed such might. I harbored absolutely no intention of endangering the Fourth Elder!

Seeing him prostrate himself so frantically, Jin Zhenyuan, seated above, waved his hand impatiently.

Enough, I presume you would not dare!

It is fortunate that the Fourth Elder possesses profound cultivation and managed to withdraw unharmed while facing two opponents. Had there been even the slightest misstep, dismembering you into ten thousand pieces would not have sufficed to quell the rage within my heart!

Hearing these words, Feng Mofeng felt a surge of warmth and seized the opportunity to mediate.

Sect Master, your words are excessively harsh. I am grateful for your concern.

Sect Master Jin, the transgression was unintentional. I sincerely hope the Sect Master will moderate his anger.

Jin Zhenyuan then appeared to have quelled some of his fury and generously offered a pill.

Sigh...

Fourth Elder, you have endured a strenuous journey. Please retire and recuperate. This is a Seven-Revolution Spirit-Nurturing Pill. Consider it my expression of apology on his behalf.

Catching the hovering pill with both hands, Feng Mofeng was deeply touched. He offered his renewed gratitude and took his leave.

Once the chamber was empty of all others.

Jin Zhenyuan, having successfully secured the elder's loyalty, shed his earlier demeanor and addressed his cousin with earnest counsel.

Weiyuan.

Within the current Jin clan, only you and I remain among our generation. Though our kinship is distant, we are still bound by blood as members of the same clan. We should both embrace the revitalization of our family as our solemn duty.

Although your cultivation is not high, I had assumed you possessed the discernment to identify skilled individuals for our grand undertaking. I never imagined you would nearly trigger a catastrophe, causing my Tianyuan Sect to lose a formidable warrior. Do you confess your wrongdoing!

While these words were still accusations, they now carried an undeniable weight of truth.

Guilt flickered in Jin Weiyuan's eyes as he cupped his fists in a gesture of respect and responded.

My cousin speaks the absolute truth. Weiyuan is deeply ashamed.

It was indeed my momentary lapse in judgment that nearly led to disaster. For those two to possess such cultivation and achieve such prowess at their tender age is truly astonishing!

Alas, my carelessness back then led to forging a blood feud instead of recruiting them into our ranks. What course of action should we take now?

As he spoke, Jin Weiyuan frantically racked his brain, quickly offering his advice to demonstrate his value and hoping to atone for his errors with future achievements!

Cousin.

Given that a life-and-death conflict is already established, those two must not be allowed to continue existing in this world! Forgive my presumption, but why not dispatch a couple more Elders to eliminate them, thereby preventing them from becoming a significant threat!

Upon hearing this, Jin Zhenyuan gave a slight nod, a confident glint appearing in his eyes.

Mm.

There is no need for you to concern yourself with this matter. I have already commissioned the Second Elder and the Third Elder, accompanied by over a hundred elite disciples. They will undoubtedly succeed in completely eradicating that New Sword Sect!

Hearing this, Jin Weiyuan swiftly offered his praise, striving his utmost to ingratiate himself!

Cousin possesses unparalleled strategic vision!

So, you had already orchestrated everything flawlessly. It is truly commendable!

Perhaps these words were music to his ears, or perhaps due to the absence of any other listeners, Jin Zhenyuan finally straightened himself. He stood silently by the window, his gaze sweeping over the flourishing nocturnal panorama of the Tianyuan Sect, a subtle undertone of pride surfacing in his expression.

Hmph.

This minor endeavor of eliminating weeds at their roots is insignificant.

To be candid, during the years I have overseen the Tianyuan Sect, our treasury has amassed considerable riches. Top-grade spirit stones are piled high like mountains, and we possess thousands of various spirit herbs and elixirs! Even the Four Great Elders now pledge their unwavering allegiance to me!

Once the opportune moment arrives, we shall launch a decisive assault on the imperial capital and reclaim all that our Jin clan has lost!

When that day comes, our Jin clan will undoubtedly reverberate throughout the entirety of the Blazing Fire Nation once more. We shall no longer be confined to this minuscule Yandang Mountain, nor be troubled by the passage of ordinary folk!

As these grand aspirations were articulated, Jin Weiyuan's eyes sparkled with elation. An unprecedented sense of grandeur blossomed within his heart, completely eclipsing the earlier feelings of indignation and humiliation.

He offered several sentences of fawning praise after performing a kowtow, still feeling as though he hadn't expressed enough.

Had Jin Zhenyuan not gestured to dismiss him, he might have continued his effusive speech until the break of dawn.

Returning to the modest courtyard where he was temporarily residing with burgeoning excitement, he felt an even greater thrill than the Fourth Elder upon receiving the pill. He tossed and turned on his plush bedding, sleep eluding him until the late hours of the night.

As for the two young men who had previously subjected him to such profound humiliation, they had long since receded from his thoughts.

In the blink of an eye, the third watch of the night had arrived.

An profound quietude had enveloped the entire Tianyuan Sect. Despite the extraordinary cultivation possessed by many of its inhabitants, it was uncommon for anyone to venture outdoors at this hour. Apart from the vigilant disciples on patrol, hardly a soul could be observed within the numerous courtyards of both the inner and outer sects.

It was precisely at this juncture, however, that two figures soared over the outer sect's formidable wall, making their direct trajectory towards the inner sect.

These two were none other than Yi Feng and the youth clad in black.

Perched upon the flying eaves of an ornate structure, the pair surveyed the majestic halls, faintly illuminated by scattered lights. A subtle smile graced their lips. The more the black-clad youth observed, the more his satisfaction grew, and he couldn't help but utter in hushed admiration.

Tsk, tsk...

"This Heavenly Fate Sect truly lives up to its esteemed reputation as a major power. Its foundations are remarkably profound! With a multitude of courtyards, both large and small, and innumerable elaborately carved pavilions, the entire complex is constructed like a magnificent imperial palace!"

"There must surely be incredible treasures concealed within. Even I find myself salivating at the prospect!"

After expressing his awe at the spectacle, the youth in black rubbed his hands together and shifted his gaze to the individual beside him.

"Brother, what are your thoughts? From where shall we commence our little excursion?"
