Chapter 1314: Chapter 1300: Framing
Ordinary Sword Cultivators or other cultivators are not much of a threat to Baiyu.
However.
If it were a cultivator from the Giant Spirit Realm, he would have to exert some effort. Ren Tianhe had previously used a Flying Sword that causes harm to himself while dealing damage to others, which is why Baiyu could so easily kill him.
If it were a normal Giant Spirit cultivator,
it definitely.
wouldn’t be resolved this easily.
Baiyu took a deep breath and quickly distanced himself from the Sword Pavilion, but he hadn’t gone far before several individuals jumped out from the road ahead, blocking Baiyu’s path.
These people wielded a variety of weapons and weren’t all Sword Cultivators.
Of course.
Given the terror that a Flying Sword invokes, even those who aren’t Sword Cultivators would still be highly attracted to it.
"Gentlemen, I am the Cave Master of the South Sea Jiao Cave. Would you consider giving me a pass this time, for future’s sake? If you encounter any problems in the future, you can come to me for help. After all, we’re all in this world together, meeting often, so why not understand each other?"
Baiyu said with a smile.
However.
The four burly, intimidating individuals had no intention of listening.
"Bastard, who do you think you are, asking us to give you face?"
"What South Sea Jiao Cave Master? Never heard of you, and you dare show your presence here?"
"Damn it, I advise you to hand over the Flying Sword quickly, or else even an immortal wouldn’t be able to save you today."
At this moment.
The four of them rushed forward.
Surrounding Baiyu on all sides, leaving him no room to retreat.
Just as the four were about to make a move.
Baiyu suddenly raised his hand to signal a halt: "Wait, given the situation now, I can’t hide my identity any longer. I’m actually the Grand Elder of the Lonely Sea Sect, Ren Tianhe. If you intend to attack me, be prepared to face the retaliation from the Lonely Sea Sect!"
In that instant.
The four finally paused.
Baiyu thought they were truly intimidated by the mention of the Lonely Sea Sect, and he was secretly surprised at how intimidating the Lonely Sea Sect could be.
But just two seconds later.
The four burst into laughter.
"The puny Lonely Sea Sect dares to show their face here? And Grand Elder? Are you delusional from strutting around your sect like a king?"
"Even if your Sect Leader were here, today I’d still chop you into pieces."
"Stop joking, meet your death!"
All of a sudden.
The four launched their attacks one after another.
Baiyu didn’t engage in combat. After meeting their attacks, he used the recoil to swiftly escape.
In an instant.
Baiyu had moved several hundred meters away, entering a nearby mountain. After the four made their attacks, they couldn’t immediately recover. After a brief pause, they continued pursuing Baiyu and were secretly curious as to why Baiyu could withstand their attacks and still leave unscathed, moving so swiftly.
This doesn’t add up.
All four were in the Spirit Transformation Realm.
Even if this guy were made of iron, it shouldn’t be possible to remain unscathed.
Could it be he’s in the Giant Spirit Realm?
The thought occurred to all four, but they dismissed it instantly.
Because it couldn’t possibly be the Giant Spirit Realm.
The Giant Spirit Realm is incredibly fearsome. Although the sweeping Flying Sword move just now was impressive, those at the Spirit Transformation Realm could achieve similar and even more spectacular displays.
Therefore.
The four deduced that this guy must be at the Spirit Transformation Realm.
The Lonely Sea Sect is an obscure sect and unlikely to have a Giant Spirit Realm cultivator, as a cultivator of that level would hold a significant elder role in a major sect, becoming a mainstay wherever they go.
At this moment.
They pursued into the mountain.
Only to find many others had come searching for the Flying Sword too.
At this moment.
A voice suddenly shouted from the mountain: "These four have snatched the Flying Sword, they must not be allowed to leave, or the treasure will fall into their hands and they’ll vanish forever!"
All turned their heads.
And found it was a young man they had never seen before, fair-skinned and with a delicate face—it was like looking at a pretty boy.
His shout instantly caught everyone’s attention.
"Brother, don’t slander us. We never took that Flying Sword!"
"Yeah, we didn’t kill that guy, how could we have taken the sword?"
"That guy ran into the mountain, quickly dig it up and find him, or else the Flying Sword might really end up in someone else’s hands!"
The four shouted indignantly.
However.
The jade-faced man looked puzzled: "No, I clearly saw you kill the man who took the Flying Sword and seize it, how could I be mistaken?"
"You bastard, are you looking for trouble on purpose today?"
Among the four.
One man spoke up.
But now there were quite a few cultivators around, at least ten to twenty. If they make a move, it might lead to unnecessary trouble.
After all.
Four of them acting together would already draw attention and suspicion.
If they attack,
others might take advantage and attack them. In that case, they could wind up in an unfavorable position, possibly being attacked by everyone else.
So even though the four were angry.
They didn’t attack the man.
"Let’s find him first. The one who took the Flying Sword must be found. I heard about it and rushed over from another Spirit Land, but didn’t expect the Flying Sword to be taken in such a short time.
In any case.
No matter what happened, let’s search the mountain thoroughly, find the person alive or their corpse."
At this moment.
A man holding an ornate longsword spoke.
His whole demeanor was intimidating, like an unsheathed sword, making others feel apprehensive even without him making a move.
His sharpness was all too visible!
Clearly a top-notch expert at first glance.
"A member of the Taiyi Sword Sect..."
At this time.
Someone quietly informed their nearby companion of who this speaker was.
No one objected.
They began searching the mountain for the person who took the Flying Sword.
Of course.
Searching like that wouldn’t succeed.
Because Baiyu had already used the Thousand Illusion Mask to disguise himself as a Jade-faced Scholar, and he had shifted the blame to those four earlier.
Once these Sword Cultivators realized they had searched the entire mountain and still couldn’t find a trace of Baiyu, their suspicion would naturally fall on the four.
