Chapter 856 The Sect Leader’s Hostility
The Sword Saint’s expression darkened, showing some annoyance, "If it weren’t for Third Shishu’s accident, you would not have been the next leader of Xuanjian Sect at all. The master said with your narrow mind, letting you become the leader is absolutely not a good thing for Xuanjian Sect."
"Traitor, shut your mouth." Seemingly hit where it hurt, the leader of Xuanjian Sect flew into a rage out of humiliation, wielded his sword, and charged forward. His swordsmanship was fiercely sharp, with Jian Qi filling the space between heaven and earth.
However, an even more ferocious and overwhelming Jian Qi burst forth, as the Sword Saint with his cultivation instantly overwhelmed the leader of Xuanjian Sect.
"Bastard!" The leader of Xuanjian Sect, for the sake of his dignity, obviously couldn’t back down and thrust his sword as fast as a gale straight at the Sword Saint’s forehead.
But the Sword Saint was even faster; his long sword had already reached the throat of the leader of Xuanjian Sect first, signaling with this stroke that the victory was decided.
One sword move had bested another; it was all about speed, and the Sword Saint had won. However, he did not press his advantage. Instead, he sheathed his sword and turned to leave.
This time, the disciples of Xuanjian Sect did not dare to block his way, making room for the Sword Saint to pass. They also glanced at their leader standing there in silence, wondering how much this defeat had impacted him.
A moment later, the Sword Saint, Lin Xi, and Lu Bei reached the foot of the mountain. Looking back and ensuring that no one was following them, they finally breathed a sigh of relief. The Sword Saint certainly did not want to face his fellow sect members in a fight.
Lu Bei wore a look of misery: "I just spoke a few words for you, and now I’ve been expelled from the sect too."
