Chapter 340 - 108 Questioning
"It is said that the Dapeng Divine Sovereign acts swiftly and decisively, and it seems the rumors are true."
Those present silently thought as they heard Luo Penghai speak so directly.
Yet, many dared not reply, considering the Fire Crow Sect’s close ties with the Xuri Martial Academy, and speaking too much could displease the True Spirit.
Such a thankless situation left everyone silent, but when the Divine Sovereign asked a question, how could they not answer? They immediately looked towards the president of the Xuri Martial Academy in the middle of the scene.
"In response to the Divine Sovereign, Jin Shengzhe was attacked by Lang Kun’s sword," the academy president pondered how to best reply.
The Dapeng Divine Sovereign was a pinnacle powerhouse of the Divine Origin Realm. Even Jin Shengzhe, a True Spirit of the Fire Crow Sect, had to address him as ’Master Uncle’ in front of the Divine Sovereign.
"Master Uncle Luo has traveled far and wide to be here, how could I, the disciple, afford to be discourteous."
Jin Shengzhe’s face remained expressionless, carrying the ghost-head broadsword, and he walked leisurely into the academy’s plaza.
Luo Penghai noticed a lingering stiffness in Jin Shengzhe’s aura, raised an eyebrow, and questioned, "Are you the one who lost Changle Village?"
"It was not a fault in battle."
Jin Shengzhe’s expression stiffened, suppressing his anger, and explained with cupped fists, "The attack on Changle Village by the demonic tiger Shen Hong from the Ten Thousand Demon Mountain was beyond our resistance, forcing us to retreat and hold the line, awaiting sect reinforcement."
