Chapter 223 - 214: Gathering Forces
"Greetings to the Sect Leader!"
A disciple from Sword Sect breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Dugu Chen appear, quickly saluting him.
"It’s not that I’m unwilling to give Sect Master Dugu face," Fang Tianzhou has the desire to kill our Pill Sect Saint. If our Pill Sect lets this matter slide, how can we maintain our dignity in the ten regions?"
The atmosphere in the hall became even more oppressive, yet Lin Xuantian’s gaze remained calm as he lightly looked at Dugu Chen.
Sword King Dugu Chen, a famous master of the Sword Dao in the Northern Region and leader of the Sword Sect, was said to possess swordsmanship that could penetrate heaven and earth, unmatched by anyone in the nearby regions.
And Lin Xuantian, one of only seven Alchemy Dao Masters in the ten regions and one of the three giants, was considered a peer of Dugu Chen.
Either of these men could cause a great commotion in the ten regions with a mere stomp of their foot. The development of events had unexpectedly escalated to this level.
Listening to Lin Xuantian’s words, Dugu Chen fell silent for a moment. He looked no different from a common old man in the mortal world.
"Mo Wangchen killed my Sword Sect disciple Fang Ruyuan; I have also heard about this. If Sect Master Xuantian releases Sword Sect Great Elder, I vow to consider this matter resolved. What do you say?"
Fang Tianzhou, the Great Elder of the Sword Sect, was considered the second strongest master next to Dugu Chen and one of the rare powerful figures in the ten regions. His loss at the hands of Lin Xuantian would be a massive blow to the Sword Sect.
