Chapter 252 - 253: Sword Venerate Who Touched That Door
"Why do you have the right to command me?" Sword Venerate’s attitude was clear, although I belong to the Immortal World, where I am is my freedom. Who are you to question me?
"Sword Venerate, don’t be too arrogant. Given that we all originate from the same Immortal World we are just asking you a question. Otherwise—hmph."
Who says that an Immortal Venerable must have intelligence proportional to their strength? The Immortal Venerable speaking now is clearly another fool.
It really isn’t his fault though; the Immortal World is now on the verge of shattering, a fragmentation from the periphery to the core. Everyone is trapped in this situation, and even the Immortal Venerables do not have the authority to bring their entire families into the Mortal World.
Only if contribution standards are met can one exchange for the opportunity to take their entire families to the Mortal World. The Immortal Venerables are not all lonely people; many also have their attachments in the Immortal World.
"Oh? So you mean because I am from the Immortal World, I must obey your commands?" Sword Venerate’s temper had improved a tremendous amount. Had this been before the major changes in the Mortal World, he would have already drawn his sword to attack. But now, he had tempered his anger significantly, at least to the point where he did not strike out immediately upon disagreement.
"That’s right. If you continue to be deluded, heh, don’t blame us for taking action," said the previously speaking Immortal Venerable, looking proudly at Sword Venerate. He believed that no matter what, Sword Venerate would capitulate today. Given the unclear relationship between the Mortal and Immortal Worlds, if a battle truly broke out, these people were unlikely to side with Sword Venerate. With no one from the Mortal World taking action, he alone couldn’t possibly dare to confront so many on his own.
A slight smile appeared on his face, as if he had already seen Sword Venerate admit his mistake. The others watched coldly, either curious about Sword Venerate’s response or using this to gauge the stance of the Mortal World on this matter.
"Sword Venerate is our guest. What do you mean by this?" Xuanyuan Mingkong frowned displeasedly upon seeing their eager readiness to strike.
