Chapter 1190 - 1193: Pursued by Two Major Sects?
Chapter 1190 - 1193: Pursued by Two Major Sects?
The people from Mingjian Pavilion were in a rather awkward position. The disciples carried away the severed sword's corpse along with the longsword, waiting quietly on the side, remaining neutral in the conflict on both sides, simply waiting for the teleportation gate back to the Kunlun Sacred Land to open, so they could return to Mingjian Pavilion with the third elder's corpse and seek revenge from the elders within the pavilion."Song Hong, you must not disrespect the Venerable in such a manner. No matter where you are, the Venerable is worthy of respect from all cultivators because they have cultivated the power of laws and are capable of leading the cultivation realm to a higher level of greatness!"
Yang Kun was displeased with Song Hong's mocking and stood up abruptly, glaring at him angrily.
"It's truly laughable. The Venerable is indeed worthy of respect, but as you said, that's the Venerable. What is this kid? Merely someone somewhat stronger than us, but if he wants to be a Venerable, he must at least demonstrate the power of laws!"
Song Hong sneered disdainfully at Yang Kun's retort. In his view, the power of laws should be like their Celestial Saint Sect Leader, who could strike with an inescapable palm!
"Ignorant!"
To Song Hong's words, Yang Kun merely replied with two indifferent words, then turned his head, his gaze towards Yun Hao filled with an even more intense admiration.
If it was before coming out this time, he might have had thoughts similar to Song Hong, thinking that Yun Hao was merely a bit stronger than them, and never thinking of associating him with the power of laws.
However, before coming out this time, the Sect Leader had a talk with him about matters concerning the power of laws, and it was through this conversation that he understood the true strength of the power of laws, which is to speak with authority that makes things happen.
Through this conversation, he also learned that even in the mortal world, there are high figures who have grasped the power of laws.
As to how their Sect Leader came to know this, he was unaware, but according to what he knew, it was information sent back by the Grand Elder, who seemingly had some miraculous encounter outside.
"Are you admitting defeat?" Yun Hao looked at Yang Kun, who was kneeling in front of him, his eyebrow slightly raised as he asked calmly.
"Returning to you, Venerable Sir, I've never had the intention of opposing you!" Yang Kun quickly responded respectfully.
"Very good, very good, you have great potential, just stand aside and don't disturb me!" Yun Hao praised, clearly pleased, then locked his gaze onto Song Hong.
Not only Yun Hao, but everyone around locked their gaze onto Song Hong.
Among the three sects, three elders were involved; one was dead, one surrendered, leaving Song Hong as the only prominent survivor.
Thus, for the disciples of the three sects, Song Hong became their backbone at this moment, even the disciples of Qian Guang Temple, after seeing their third elder Yang Kun surrender, shifted their allegiance and stood behind Song Hong.
"Yang Kun, you're truly disgraceful, a real man would rather die in battle than live kneeling!" Song Hong spat disdainfully at Yang Kun, then looked righteously at Yun Hao with a sense of willingness to face death.
"This isn't living on my knees. Everyone should respect a Venerable; as for you and the others, it's just that you lack strength, cultivation, and haven't reached the realm to realize that Mr. Yun is already a Venerable!"
Yang Kun was equally disdainful, unwilling to associate with the ignorant like Song Hong, yet still, those disciples from Qian Guang Temple…
Thinking of this, Yang Kun looked at the disciples from Qian Guang Temple, loudly saying, "You all know my character and conduct well, I am definitely not someone who fears death, and you also know I, Yang Kun, have never lied, Mr. Yun really is a Venerable, why don't you come stand behind Mr. Yun with me? What are you doing standing there? Waiting for death?"
Hearing Yang Kun's words, those present couldn't help but hesitate, Yang Kun spoke very rightly, they all knew well what kind of person Yang Kun was, after all, in Qian Guang Temple, in ordinary times, big and small matters were all dealt with by Yang Kun, as the Sect Leader and Second Elder were busy with cultivation and had no time for management.
Moreover, their Grand Elder was never in the sect, spending most of the time in the mortal world, so in Qian Guang Temple, the elder who won the disciples' hearts most was undoubtedly Yang Kun.
That's also why they spoke for Yang Kun earlier and argued with those disciples from the Celestial Saint Sect.
Despite this, however, those disciples from Qian Guang Temple were still hesitant!
"I believe in the Third Elder!"
After a moment of hesitation, a disciple from Qian Guang Temple spoke up and walked behind Yang Kun.
Following this disciple's action, others also began to take a stand!
Three minutes later, eighty percent of the disciples still chose to stand behind Yang Kun, while the remaining disciples showed righteous indignation, as if Yang Kun and others were mortal enemies who had slain their parents!
"Rest assured, I will definitely take you back to the Holy Land, and then report what happened here to your Sect Leader, so that everyone knows Yang Kun is a faithless, cowardly traitor!"
Song Hong looked at those Qian Guang Temple disciples left behind him, extremely pleased, and said loudly.
"Finished yapping? The treasure's right here with me, still want it? If so, come and grab it!" Yun Hao, with annoyance, dug his ear and said.
"Don't be so arrogant, though I can't beat you now, you're not my match, but can you beat all these disciples behind me? Plus, let me tell you, once I return to the Holy Land, once back to the sect, I will surely report this to the Sect Leader!"
Song Hong's expression changed upon hearing Yun Hao's words. Although he loudly proclaimed, he was truly apprehensive of Yun Hao's strength at heart.
If truly speaking of strength, he was merely on par with Yang Kun, and compared to the severed sword, he was somewhat lacking; even the severed sword met its end at Yun Hao's hands, not to mention himself?
So, after a brief period of hesitation, he voiced out such words, preserving his dignity while not allowing others to call him cowardly.
After all, failing to beat the opponent isn't shameful, isn't everyone incapable in this situation?
Most importantly, Song Hong didn't believe Yun Hao would dare to kill him, after all, he had already killed Mingjian Pavilion's severed sword, destined to be their enemy.
Yet, if he didn't kill him, then their Celestial Saint Sect might not necessarily go to war with him, but if Yun Hao dared kill him, then the Celestial Saint Sect would undoubtedly seek revenge and hunt down Yun Hao.
Two great super sects hunting Yun Hao together, Song Hong was convinced, even if Yun Hao had wings, he could never escape!
