Chapter 374 - Disciple of the Heavenly Lightning Peak, Li Guanqi, Returns to the Sect!
Just as the spirit sword tore through the storm and was about to strike Mo Zhiyuan, his eyes turned cold. He cast a venomous glare at Lu Kangnian, voice low and sinister. “I, Mo Zhiyuan, will remember this grudge. Just wait, when I—”
The moment he stepped into the rift opened by the scroll, every onlooker felt their hearts pound in their chests.
The strength the Daxia Sword Sect had displayed was already enough to rank among the foremost powers of the entire Northern Territory. No faction would dare look down on them again.
Among the gathered clans and powers, many silently resolved to keep their heads down in the days ahead.
Yet all knew that if Mo Zhiyuan survived today, the Daxia Sword Sect could face dire trouble. The Mo Family had already suffered heavy losses, but they wouldn’t be wiped out. And with a Mo Family ancestor still alive in the Illusory Refinement Realm, things were far from over.
However, Lu Kangnian and Ling Daoyan were both too far away from Mo Zhiyuan to stop him from escaping.
Then suddenly, Mo Zhiyuan’s body stiffened.
Before anyone could react, an icy voice cut through the air. “Wait for what?”
A blood-red sword burst out from the pitch-black void, skewering Mo Zhiyuan’s cheek.
Gasps rippled through the three thousand cultivators crowding the field. Not one stood below the Golden Core Realm; many were sect masters or their equals. They were there to witness how the Daxia Sword Sect would stand against the terrifying Mo Family, and also to see whether the blind swordsman who had sparked the uproar would return.
Ever since Li Guanqi’s meteoric rise, the so-called prodigies of the Northern Territory had been left in the dust. When others spoke of the gulf between them and Li Guanqi, they could only smile bitterly, unable to utter a word in defense.
Mo Zhiyuan’s eyes narrowed, pupils shrinking. Finally, he was face-to-face with the man who had murdered his son.
