Chapter 301 - 283: 700-Year Seclusion, Battling Sun Jian! (4K)_2```
Everyone's gaze naturally turned toward the Mount Shu group, yet Lu Changsheng's figure was nowhere to be seen.
"Why hasn't the Sect Leader of Mount Shu come?"
"Could it be that the Sect Leader of Mount Shu is afraid of Thousand Swords Manor and has chosen not to fight?"
"If he doesn't dare to confront Thousand Swords Manor, it wouldn't be necessary to slip away, would it? That would be even more embarrassing."
"I thought that with the cultivation of Mount Shu's Sect Leader, he at least had the power to fight Sun Jian and force him to use the manor's town-protecting sword technique. I didn't expect the Sect Leader of Mount Shu to be a coward, lacking even the courage to show his face."
Many strong practitioners from the sects of various regions sneered.
As Lu Changsheng delayed his appearance, people began to believe that he was cowardly and dared not show himself.
Sitting in a high place, Empress Wu Yue of Great Martial blinked her beautiful eyes. She could hardly believe that Lu Changsheng was avoiding battle due to cowardice. The impression he gave her was anything but weak.
"Hey, Shen Xiaoyao's master is indeed useless, much inferior to our three major sects of Zhong Zhou. His disciple dared to offend me, and after the Zhong Zhou grand conference is over, I will definitely find trouble with Mount Shu."
Young Sect Leader Zhang Sheng of the Dragon Tiger Sect had a fierce light in his eyes.
He had been beaten severely by Lu Changsheng's second disciple, Lu Qinglian, in front of many Dragon Tiger Sect Elders, completely losing face and holding a grudge in his heart.
In front of a sect as powerful as the Dragon Tiger Sect, Mount Shu was nothing more than mediocre.
If the Sect Leader of Mount Shu didn't even dare to fight the manor head of Thousand Swords Manor, let alone the Sect Leader of the Dragon Tiger Sect.
Zhang Qinglong, the Sect Leader of the Dragon Tiger Sect, already knew about his son being injured by Lu Qinglian: "Our Dragon Tiger Sect has been a distinguished and powerful sect when we founded our school in Zhong Zhou a million years ago. For a junior from Mount Shu to bully you, after the conference of Zhong Zhou is over, I shall seek justice from Mount Shu."
With a high status in Zhong Zhou, even the Pavilion Master of the Star Pavilion would show him respect.
Having attained a son in his later years, and with Zhang Sheng possessing a special constitution and high talent, second only to Tang Ling'er among the younger generation of Zhong Zhou, Zhang Qinglong considered this son his precious jewel.
Zhang Sheng nearly got killed by Lu Qinglian; how could Zhang Qinglong swallow this insult?
The Supreme Elder of the Star Pavilion, who was presiding over the grand conference of Zhong Zhou, was stunned to see only one person taking the stage while the Sect Leader of Mount Shu had suddenly vanished.
Sun Jian said coldly, "The Sect Leader of Mount Shu must be frightened by my supreme sword technique, hence his avoidance to confront me. You can treat it as him forfeiting."
"Yes..." The Supreme Elder of the Star Pavilion still needed to give face to the manor head of Thousand Swords Manor, so he turned toward the Mount Shu group, "If your Sect Leader of Mount Shu doesn't appear within the time it takes to brew a cup of tea, it will be considered a forfeit."
The people of Mount Shu looked at each other in dismay.
Lu Changsheng had informed the people of Mount Shu in advance that he would be in seclusion for seven days. Now he was nowhere to be found, and even the people of Mount Shu didn't know where he had gone.
Zhao Wuyan said, "Lu isn't really running away, is he?"
Li Changye rolled his eyes, "Lu isn't that kind of person. Zhao, it sounds more like your style, doesn't it?"
Zhao Wuyan's old face turned red, and he coughed twice.
Honestly, if it were Zhao Wuyan facing the manor head of Thousand Swords Manor, running away wasn't impossible.
After all, not everyone has the courage to face a peak expert of the Unity Realm.
If Sun Jian harbors a killing intent and makes even one mistake, the other party would turn to ash under the supreme sword technique of Thousand Swords Manor.
Situ Kong sighed, "Maybe Changye had a sudden enlightenment while in seclusion, not wanting to miss the opportunity of this epiphany, which is why he hasn't yet ended his seclusion. If Changye doesn't appear, then we, Mount Shu, will forfeit."
Situ Kong believed that at a time when Mount Shu was declining, being able to enter the top thirty-two was already honorable enough for the ancestors of Mount Shu.
As time ticked by, neither Lu Changsheng nor Xia Ningxue showed up.
"Hurry it up."
Sun Jian was becoming impatient.
Although he could proceed to the seventh round without lifting a finger, he was keener on crippling Lu Changsheng's cultivation during the match and winning Xia Ningxue's affection.
The Supreme Elder of the Star Pavilion took a deep breath, "The time for brewing a cup of tea is almost up. Since the Sect Leader of Mount Shu is still absent, then we shall consider it a..."
"Hold on!"
Just as the Supreme Elder of the Star Pavilion was about to declare Lu Changsheng's forfeiture, a sonorous voice rang out.
Two figures descended from sword flight, a man and a woman, looking like a pair of celestial couple.
"Master!"
"Lu!"
"Sect Leader!"
The disciples of Qingyun Peak and the people of Mount Shu were ecstatic.
```
Lu Changsheng finally arrived at the last moment!
The strong figures from the various major territories stirred on the viewing platform.
The Sect Leader of Mount Shu did not forfeit, and actually had the courage to challenge the owner of Thousand Swords Manor!
"It looks like Xia is fine, that's really great."
The people from Inquiry Immortal Pavilion also secretly broke out in a cold sweat.
Xia Ningxue had disappeared without a trace for seven days, and the people from Inquiry Immortal Pavilion thought something had happened to her.
Xia Ningxue was a peerless genius cultivated by the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion at the expense of the sect's entire resources.
If Xia Ningxue were to fall, the Inquiry Immortal Pavilion didn't know when it could regain its current splendor.
"Strange, how have the temperaments of these two changed so drastically?"
Situ Kong, Grandmaster Chen, Yu Xuanji, and Master Wuxiang, the elders familiar with Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue, keenly realized that the temperaments of Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue had become more steady.
Previously, Lu Changsheng and Xia Ningxue's cultivation was not long, and their temperaments were somewhat immature, but now, after seven hundred years of accumulation, their temperaments had undergone a complete transformation.
"It's not just that, their cultivation is even more unfathomable. It's hard to imagine just how this change occurred after merely seven days of seclusion. What exactly were they doing during these seven days?"
Yu Xuanji couldn't believe it.
It has only been seven days.
For those in the Unity Realm, seven days' time was but a flick of a finger, how could there be such a big change?
"I will fight Sun Jian, you go back first."
"Mm."
Xia Ningxue returned to the midst of the people from Inquiry Immortal Pavilion.
She and Lu Changsheng had spent seven hundred years in the cultivation space and knew his true strength, so she had full confidence in Lu Changsheng and was not worried.
Lu Changsheng, dressed in black attire, carrying only a longsword, stepped onto the Martial Arts Platform and faced the owner of Thousand Swords Manor.
Invisible Sword Qi collided with each other.
Before the two moved, their Sword Qi was already contending.
"You've got quite some nerve to show up. Are you not afraid that I'll cripple your cultivation? If you kneel and beg for mercy after I defeat you, I might spare your life. Otherwise, a peerless genius with the potential to ascend to the Immortal Realm will suddenly become a mortal. Such a downfall will drive you to end your own life."
Sun Jian coldly scrutinized Lu Changsheng, whose aura remained at the early stage of the Unity Realm. Sun Jian knew that Lu Changsheng's real realm should be around the sixth layer of the Unity Realm, but he possessed the battle power of the eighth layer.
Such strength was astonishing and terrifying.
Unfortunately, Sun Jian was a peak Unity Realm expert, the number one Sword Cultivator in Zhong Zhou.
"Is that so? Then should I thank you for that? However, the person begging for mercy later might not necessarily be me."
Since the other party looked down upon him, Lu Changsheng responded with the same sarcastic tone.
The observant crowd on the platform erupted in surprise.
Lu Changsheng dared to provoke Sun Jian verbally before the match.
Sun Jian was one of the strongest in Zhong Zhou!
Even the masters of Star Pavilion and Dragon Tiger Sect had to exhaust all efforts against Sun Jian.
"Doesn't the Sect Leader of Mount Shu fear provoking Sun Jian and having his cultivation crippled by him?"
"Such a na?ve calf is not afraid of tigers. It's a pity for a peerless genius."
"It would be better for the Sect Leader of Mount Shu to forfeit instead of angering the opponent; it's better than losing one's life."
The observant crowd whispered among themselves.
"These people, when Master doesn't fight, they call Master cowardly; now that Master fights, they say Master is irrational. If I attain great achievement in the Unity Realm, I will definitely beat them up."
Lu Qinglian clenched her fists tightly, annoyed by these whispering people.
"Xia, do you think the Sect Leader of Mount Shu has a chance of defeating Sun Jian? Sun Jian's supreme swordsmanship has reached inconceivable levels."
Xiao Meng'er from Inquiry Immortal Pavilion frowned slightly; after advancing to the Void Refinement Realm, she could better perceive the horror of the supreme swordsmanship of Thousand Swords Manor.
Xia Ningxue's gaze was firm: "He definitely can."
