Chapter 244 – The Sect Finally Appears, Overwhelming the Entire Scene!

The figures in the sky were lofty and unattainable, positioned above the clouds, observing the movements below with an aloof, supreme demeanor.

The moonlight shone behind them, resembling the merciless Heavenly Law.

From the sky, several shadowy figures looked down.

Just as they had been observing Li Zixuan earlier.

“The one who injured our sect member? It’s you, isn’t it?”

“Sect member?”

Upon hearing this, Liu Wushuang immediately halted his steps.

Qi Qingshan forcibly stopped his killing move, and the two exchanged a glance, both seeing the disbelief in each other’s eyes.

These several Supreme Realm experts in the sky…

“Could they all be from the Sword God’s Sect?”

Liu Wushuang was inwardly shocked.

He glanced around again.

Unbeknownst to him, the space around him had been locked down.

The opponent had immediately deployed a sixth-level Array Formation, restricting his movement space!

Star Pressure surged like mountains, seemingly boundless. These experts sent by the Sword God’s Sect were all at the Supreme Realm or above.

And he hadn’t noticed any of it?

“How is this possible?”

Liu Wushuang’s pupils contracted sharply, his instincts putting him on high alert.

He hadn’t even noticed their approach. Since when had they been observing? The Sword God’s backing sect was this terrifying?!

“This is bad.”

Beside him, Qi Qingshan frowned deeply, his sword trembling slightly. “There are too many Supreme experts here. How could the Jianghai Sword God’s sect have so many people?!”

According to their expectations, at most one or two elders would come to assist. But now, the experts in the sky stood with their hands behind their backs, surrounding them.

All directions were blocked off—there was no escape!!

In an instant.

The situation had reversed!

In the blink of an eye.

They had gone from being the ambushers to the trapped!

The vast sky served as the Array Diagram, faintly revealing that among the experts in the night sky, someone was pulling the strings of the formation, controlling the entire apartment building as if turning over a hand.

They were overwhelmingly powerful!

Liu Wushuang trembled as he looked up, silently counting the figures above the clouds. His fear intensified with each number.

One, two, three, four… seven.

This time, a full seven Supreme experts had arrived!

One must know!

Even if the Supreme Alliance were to take action, dispatching Supreme experts for a mission required strict reporting and came with numerous restrictions.

For his own mission to Jianghai, he had been personally assigned by the Alliance Lord, but he had brought at most one Supreme Realm expert.

And now?

The other side had sent seven right off the bat?!

Absurd!

“There are actually this many?”

Liu Wushuang gazed at the shadowy figures in the sky, roughly sensing their auras.

Their robes fluttered, their faces obscured and indistinct, yet they seemed like deities descending to the mortal realm, towering high above the clouds, looking down on them as if they were ants.

The current situation was clear.

From the moment they arrived, they had not regarded him as a threat.

………

“Holy cow! The sect really sent people!”

“So cool! So cool!!”

Beside the apartment, Li Qinghe hugged the Array Diagrams, staring at the Black-Robed Men in the sky, her heart already bursting with joy.

She let out an excited howl!

“See, Zi Xuan! What did I tell you? The sect would definitely send people—they wouldn’t abandon us!”

Li Qinghe was so emotional she was almost beside herself with excitement!

She pointed at the leading Black-Robed Man. “Later, I’m going to ask Martial Uncle and the others about some…”

“Don’t! Be careful, Sister Qinghe,”Seeing this, Li Zixuan quickly pressed down Li Qinghe’s finger and whispered, “Don’t point at elders like that. If they notice, it’ll leave a bad impression of you.”

“Oh, oh… I forgot,” Li Qinghe said, hurriedly retracting her finger and clasping her hands behind her back, feeling rather sheepish.

Finally, the day had arrived when she could witness the first major mobilization of their sect. Details determine success or failure, and her martial uncles possessed extraordinary abilities—she couldn’t afford to ruin her image in their eyes!

“I just knew it! That Qin guy… ahem, I mean, Master hadn’t had time to tell me earlier, but our sect…” she mused. “It must be a super major sect!!”

……

……

“Are those your martial uncles, Qin Yang?” The Commander stood by the window of the cluttered apartment, gazing at the black-robed figures in the sky. Even indoors, the oppressive aura emanating from outside was palpable.

Divine might loomed like a prison—seven Supreme Realm experts had descended upon Jianghai City. Such an unprecedented spectacle had never occurred in the city’s centuries of history. Today was truly a day to witness history!

And all this… just to rescue one junior?

The Commander turned to look at Qin Yang, his expression complex and tinged with envy. Such a grand display, yet this young man seemed already accustomed to it, utterly unperturbed.

“Yeah, let’s leave the rest to them,” Qin Yang replied lazily with a yawn, walking to the refrigerator and pulling out two bottles of soda. He tossed one to the Commander. “Thanks for pleading on my behalf earlier. Check if you’re injured—those Sword Intent intrusions are no joke.”

“Don’t mention it,” the Commander said, setting the drink aside without opening it. Instead, he looked at Qin Yang with concern. “How are you feeling now? Are you hurt?” He had promised Elder Li to protect Qin Yang’s safety and was worried about the aftermath of the Sword Intent ordeal.

“Manageable,” Qin Yang rubbed his arm and glanced at the Commander’s condition. The Sword Intent intrusion had been excruciating, leaving psychological scars. Claiming he was completely fine would be rubbing salt in the wound, so he amended, “My martial uncles taught me resistance techniques before. It’s painful, but I can endure it.”

“Oh? Your martial uncle is outside—aren’t you going out to see him?” the Commander asked again. “It’s rare to see them emerge from seclusion. The Sword God Sect truly breeds exceptional talents.”

“No need. I’d just be in their way,” Qin Yang waved dismissively, stretching out on the torn sofa. “My martial uncles are incredibly powerful. Minor Supreme Realm experts like Liu Wushuang aren’t even worth their attention.”

“……” The Commander didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Your temperament is truly remarkable. No wonder you earned Sword God Senior’s admiration… To remain so calm through storms and not utter a sound despite that pain—it’s truly impressive.”

Just as he finished praising, the Commander’s phone rang. It was Elder Li.

“Sorry…” The Commander answered the call and immediately heard Elder Li’s voice—

“Commander, what’s the situation there!? Is it really the Sword God’s Sect making an appearance?”On the phone, Elder Li got straight to the point, unable to suppress the excitement in his voice as his fanboy mode activated once again, “You must not deceive this old man!”

“Absolutely true, Elder Li.”

“Excellent, stay alert! This old man will arrive very soon!!”

Elder Li’s final words were nearly a roar of ecstasy, “The Sword God Senior’s sect has truly not forsaken this old man!!”

Beep—

The call ended.

The room suddenly fell silent.

“Please don’t mind him too much.”

After hanging up, the Commander turned to Qin Yang apologetically and said, “Elder Li has always been like this—especially fanatical about your master, the Sword God. It’s reached an almost obsessive level.”

As his words faded.

“?”

“Elder Li… is a fanboy of the Sword God?”

A question mark slowly rose in Qin Yang’s mind. He opened his mouth as if to say something but ultimately decided against it.

He silently drank his beverage.

Remaining quiet.

……..

Meanwhile, on the streets of Jianghai.

Rumors spread rapidly through this coastal town, starting from the main streets and quickly circulating everywhere.

The scene outside the apartment was like a divine miracle.

The brilliant starlight in the sky far exceeded any previous observational records.

People passed the news by word of mouth.

Coupled with the swift spread online, it soon reached every corner of the streets.

The internet was ablaze with excitement, and the citizens offline were even more so, completely caught up in the frenzy, all rushing toward the apartment.

Now, with the arrival of the Sword God’s Sect.

In the sky above the apartment, the sea of clouds in the night sky was tinged with a faint golden glow, and more citizens of Jianghai were surging in that direction.

People naturally followed the crowd, and the Sword God held an extraordinary, revered place in the hearts of all Jianghai residents.

On the streets, the blaring of horns erupted.

This night was destined to be sleepless!

“Was that Elder Li who just flew past?! I definitely didn’t mistake him!”

“Could it really be the Sword God’s Sect?”

“Didn’t you hear that voice earlier? It sounded like they were looking for the Sword God’s Senior Disciple!”

“Wait… Lord Sword God actually has a sect?”

“…….”

People focused on different details, but crowds surged like a rising tide upon hearing the news, all heading toward the apartment.

In the early hours of the morning.

Jianghai Avenue, which should have been empty and quiet, was now completely congested. Vehicles were lined up in long queues, horns blaring sharply and overlapping. Everything in the suburbs was unprecedentedly lively, even chaotic.

The Star Martial Police Department was mobilized overnight to maintain order at the scene.

Along with the protestors demonstrating to “release the Sword God’s Senior Disciple.”

The situation teetered on the brink of chaos!

“Hey, come on, buddy… don’t block me here!”

On the overpass, Xia He pressed the steering wheel anxiously, frantically honking his horn. His red supercar was trapped between vans, with only a few centimeters between his bumper and the car in front.

It had already been half an hour…

Since he hit the road.

Yet.

Despite setting out so early, he was no match for the Sword God’s fans, whose obsession bordered on madness. The roads were now packed with vehicles, all hoping to catch a glimpse of the situation over there.

“Looks like I’ll have to leave the car for now and go on foot.”

Xia He watched the police helicopters outside the window, his anxiety mounting.

The line of cars on the overpass stretched endlessly, and the side roads were just as full, with virtually no space in sight!

Trying to drive out now…

Forget reaching the apartment.By the time we get there, it’ll probably be noon the next day, and Old Qin would have long since fled!

“Dammit, I’m not driving anymore… I’ll just walk!”

With that thought, Xia He angrily got out of the car, glanced at the night sky, slammed the car door shut, and leaped over the crowd, heading straight for the abnormal phenomenon.

After all, no matter how you looked at it.

His status was anything but ordinary!

“I, Xia He, am the Sword God’s top outer disciple… even if I haven’t been formally acknowledged yet, I should at least get to meet my Martial Uncles and ancestors.”

……….

In front of the apartment building,

The standoff continued.

“This is bad, Wushuang. It seems we’ve really gotten ourselves into serious trouble.”

Under the overwhelming pressure, Qi Qingshan gripped his sword hilt, his green robes fluttering and rustling in the wind. Suddenly, he realized his sword hilt was trembling?

“Is this sword resonance?”

Qi Qingshan frowned and pressed down with his hand.

No…

It wasn’t the sword shaking…

It was his own damn hand trembling violently!!

No matter how hard he tried to suppress it! He couldn’t make it stop!

This was a fear driven by pure instinct.
