System's Super Sect Chapter 955 898: Lucifer Reappears (Second Update)
Previously on System's Super Sect...
Mentioning Ye Sect Leader instantly soothed their hearts a great deal.
Though defeated by the Immortal Sect's Sword Demon, Ye Sect Leader had the fortune to break into the Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted realm. Once he fully solidifies his position as a powerhouse in Half-Step Celestial Unrestricted, his strength will match the Red Domain Master's level. That day, the Immortal Sect will plunge into a horrifying nightmare.
For now, the Immortal Sect struts around arrogantly, trampling over them, but the winds of change are coming soon, and it won't take long for the Immortal Sect to face its reckoning.
With his mind settled, the Tong Family Patriarch kept his gaze fixed on Wen Ping high above, a trace of anticipation curling at his lips. He murmured, "I truly wish this Immortal Sect Leader would lose control and charge in to slaughter us right before the Jisheng Hall's powerhouses. At that moment, the Lifeless Hall's War Gods would surely intervene. How could they tolerate anyone challenging the Jisheng Hall's dignity time and again?"
The Celestial Sun Sect Leader standing next to him regained his composure after hearing those words. He forced a faint smile and nodded, replying, "Exactly! So why are we cowering here? Let's step out together and show ourselves to him."
They needed to act boldly and provoke the Immortal Sect Leader; only then might he boldly storm into Jisheng Hall's domain.
Should that Immortal Sect Leader actually strike, couldn't the two of them hold out for even a brief moment with their united power?
With that thought, the Celestial Sun Sect Leader casually strolled to the entrance and positioned himself outside, hands clasped behind his back, staring upward at Wen Ping. The Tong Family Patriarch trailed after him, halting several paces to the rear.
Yet, the instant they took their positions, Wen Ping's sword hurtled forth without the slightest pause.
Stunned, neither had anticipated Wen Ping's ruthless decisiveness. They swiftly flung open their Meridian Gates and condensed Vein Qi into protective shields. Just as the shields materialized, Wen Ping's sword struck. In a flash, it punctured the Celestial Sun Sect Leader's Vein Qi Shield, forcing him to stagger back in terror. Only the Tong Family Patriarch's intervention from behind prevented further retreat.
"Fear not, this is Jisheng Hall's stronghold!" The Tong Family Patriarch thrust his Vein Qi Shield ahead to intercept the advancing sword. To his astonishment once more, the Celestial Sun Sect Leader's shield had soaked up scarcely any of the sword's force, leaving his own Vein Qi Shield brittle like a flimsy crepe.
Crack—
Within just two breaths, the Vein Qi Shield shattered completely.
"Damn it!"
Sensing something gravely wrong, the Tong Family Patriarch hastily pulled back.
Shockingly, not even their combined efforts could halt this sword's might—it far exceeded what he'd imagined.
Suddenly, a dull rushing noise resounded, akin to an underwater blast. Following it, a Golden Arrow emerged, fueled by immense Vein Qi, twisting like a whirlwind to confront Wen Ping's sword.
The clash between arrow and sword unleashed a shockwave that hurled the Tong Family Patriarch and Celestial Sun Sect Leader over ten steps backward. The structure they'd occupied lay in ruins long before, and the surrounding hundred-foot area turned to devastation from the collision's explosive force.
Regaining his footing, the Tong Family Patriarch glanced at the distant bowman and broke into a joyful grin. "Many thanks, mighty War God, for rescuing us!"
There, in the direction of his gaze, stood three figures.
One gripped a bow in his right hand; after his shot, he drew another arrow, his Meridian Gate quivering as he infused it with Vein Qi, radiating intense pressure. It looked ready to launch the next arrow any second.
Flanking him were two more: one wielded a pitch-black spear resembling the midnight sky, while the other bore a profound azure water lotus. Hovering mid-air, they refrained from acting but exuded a formidable aura of Earth Unrestricted Middle Realm.
These three were the fresh War Gods succeeding Qian Jun and his group—Yu Guan, Xu Qing, and Chang Tianqing.
Yu Guan drew his bow taut, locking eyes with Wen Ping in fury. "You dare commit murder on Jisheng Hall grounds? Do you not scorn the Jisheng Hall's authority?"
With the sword flying back to his side, Wen Ping gazed quietly at Yu Guan before inquiring, "Do the three War Gods intend to shield these two?"
"How dare you behave so wildly in Jisheng Hall's vital territory?" Instead of replying straight away, Yu Guan invoked Jisheng Hall's authority to suppress Wen Ping.
Naturally, those words concealed the motive to safeguard the two Celestial Sun Sect leaders.
However, such intentions couldn't be voiced openly, for the Immortal Sect's Sect Leader now held a significant position under the Domain Master, someone they were sure to meet again down the line.
By now, spectators had gathered in place. Clouds and Water in the Sky, together with the Yin Yang Grand Elders, halted a thousand feet back, observing the scene intently.
The true clash ignited.
This Immortal Sect Sect Leader sure possesses guts.
Daring to kill within Jisheng Hall's domain marked an unprecedented act in the Red Domain, though it fully provoked Jisheng Hall's wrath. Regardless of status, brazen defiance against higher powers spells imminent doom.
"Grand Elders, is the Immortal Sect Sect Leader just foolish or genuinely fearless?" Clouds and Water in the Sky whispered, glancing toward the Yin Yang Grand Elders.
Nai Qing, exuding nonchalance, chuckled, "Does it matter? He's pulled off what you and I wouldn't dare."
Clouds and Water in the Sky gave an uneasy laugh, fell silent, and couldn't resist eyeing the late-arriving Red Leaf Sect group, only to look away in contempt before fixing attention back on the Immortal Sect Sect Leader and the three Divine Generals.
Even with Jisheng Hall's Divine Generals present, would the Immortal Sect Sect Leader press on?
As Clouds and Water in the Sky watched eagerly, Wen Ping drew a magic wand, pivoted coldly as though to depart. Yet in that instant of turning, a sacred glow plunged from above, overtaking the sun's rays and bathing the Heaven Ascending Plateau.
Within the sacred light, the six-winged angel Lucifer descended gracefully, beating his Angel's Wings, while a fearsome pressure swept outward on the breeze, altering many onlookers' expressions.
Clouds and Water in the Sky and the Grand Elders proved no different.
A second Upper Realm expert from the Immortal Sect!
It was real!
Possessing two Upper Realm powerhouses made the Immortal Sect the supreme power across the Red Domain.
Upon spotting the radiant Lucifer, Yu Guan, Xu Qing, and Chang Tianqing displayed no dread; rather, their faces twisted in hubris as they declared, "Jisheng Hall's honor won't be defiled by some puny Immortal Sect! Courting death without a clue!"
At those words, a sly grin crept across Wen Ping's face.
The Fallen Angel stirs up hatred and grudge.
Lucifer swells pride!
Indeed, the Hell Demon King Lucifer lives up to his name. His Special Ability packs immense power, instantly fueling the conceit within these Middle Realm experts' hearts.
Bang—
Yu Guan loosed the arrow, wrapped in coiling Golden Vein Qi, targeted straight at Lucifer. At the same time, Xu Qing and Chang Tianqing flung open their Meridian Gates, deploying their Vein Techniques. In their eyes, the Immortal Sect amounted to nothing!
The so-called Upper Realm meant even less!
For they hailed from the Red Domain.
From You Country.
The Immortal Sect was merely a bloated leech clinging to You Country's frame—big, yes, but still just a leech.
"Leave a whole corpse."
With three black shadow pawns offering themselves up, why not make use of them?
