Chapter 327: Chapter 244 When Words Fail, Murder Speaks_2
Just at that moment,
I saw cultivators flying through the air.
“Hearing that the Heavenly Martial Sect is opening their mountain gates wide, Xuanxuzi from the Qingfeng Sect has specially come to offer congratulations!”
A Taoist had just alighted in front of the gate and spoke out loud.
Upon these words, the crowd burst into commotion, and many looked towards Xuanxuzi with faces full of reverence.
“The Heavenly Martial Sect has quite the clout, I never expected the Sect Master of the Qingfeng Sect to come in person!”
“I heard that the Qingfeng Sect was founded thousands of years ago, with a heritage that’s extraordinary. Xuanxuzi is even a powerhouse who’s reached the Divine Transformation Realm Fifth Level.”
Divine Transformation Realm Fifth Level.
This was already considered to be very powerful in Jingyun Prefecture.
Moreover, given that the Qingfeng Sect had been established for thousands of years, its reputation was naturally not small.
No one had expected that the Qingfeng Sect would send someone, and that it would be the Sect Master himself.
“Sect Master Xuanxuzi, I apologize for not greeting you from afar!” Gu Wu had also appeared and greeted Xuanxuzi with a chuckle.
He naturally had gathered information about the Qingfeng Sect.
“I’ve seen Sect Master Gu!”
Xuanxuzi also politely clasped his fists.
The moment he saw Gu Wu, he felt the tremendous vitality contained within the latter’s body, applying great pressure on him.
Because of this, Xuanxuzi regarded Sect Master Gu even more highly.
Such pressure could not come from someone who was merely at the eighth level of the Divine Transformation Realm, which meant the other party must undoubtedly be a top powerhouse who had stepped into the Ninth Layer of the Divine Transformation Realm.
Such an existence, by the standards of Jingyun Prefecture, could easily rank among the top ten.
For this reason, Xuanxuzi understood more clearly that his trip here had not been in vain.
Soon, before he could continue conversing with Gu Wu, he saw a powerful aura descending, with another great figure arriving through the air.
“Yang He from the Red River Sect has come to offer congratulations!”
“Qingyangzi from the Three Suns Sect has come to offer congratulations!”
“Xia Yunchuan from the Heavenly Seal Mountain has come to offer congratulations…”
One after another, the powerhouses who arrived to offer congratulations made the other cultivators’ faces change repeatedly.
The Red River Sect!
The Three Suns Sect!
Heavenly Seal Mountain!
These were all powerful sects of Jingyun Prefecture.
Among them, the Three Suns Sect and Heavenly Seal Mountain were even more powerful than the Qingfeng Sect.
Sect Master Qingyangzi from the Three Suns Sect was a cultivator at the seventh level of the Divine Transformation Realm, while Master Xia Yunchuan from Heavenly Seal Mountain was an existence at the eighth level.
More importantly, Heavenly Seal Mountain had a powerhouse at the ninth level of the Divine Transformation Realm.
In terms of overall strength,
Heavenly Seal Mountain could easily be ranked among the top ten of Jingyun Prefecture.
This was genuinely one of Jingyun Prefecture’s top sects, not something the Qingfeng Sect or Red River Sect could compare to.
Even Xuanxuzi and Yang He turned much more respectful when they saw Xia Yunchuan.
“So Master Xia has arrived!”
“Long time no see, Master Xia seems even more distinguished than before!”
“Heh heh, you two have also changed quite a bit.”
Xia Yunchuan had the appearance of a middle-aged scholar, always wearing a gentle smile, without the solemnity that one might expect from an eighth-level Divine Transformation Realm cultivator, instead seeming approachable.
But nobody would naïvely believe that the other party was truly so amiable.
After all,
anyone capable of leading a force ranked among Jingyun Prefecture’s top ten couldn’t be that simple.
“Master Xia!” Gu Wu also clasped his fists towards Xia Yunchuan, a cultivator at the eighth level of the Divine Transformation Realm was naturally someone he took seriously.
Xia Yunchuan glanced at Gu Wu, a sharp light flashing briefly in his eyes,
“Meeting Sect Master Gu in person is better than hearing of your deeds. Black Wind Village has been wreaking havoc in Jingyun Prefecture for many years, yet no one was able to handle them. Now that Sect Master Gu has eradicated Black Wind Village, it can be said you’ve opened up a bright vista for everyone!”
“Ha ha, Master Xia is too kind.”
To the goodwill released by Xia Yunchuan, Gu Wu responded with goodwill of his own.
Subsequently.
Gu Wu pointed to the already arranged venue with a row of empty seats at the top, initially reserved for the high-ranking members of Heavenly Martial Sect; now, naturally, it was for everyone to take their places.
“This time, the Heavenly Martial Sect is recruiting disciples, and it’s an honor for our sect to have you all here. Please take your seats first and, after this event concludes, I will ensure that you are all properly entertained.”
“That sounds good. I, too, am curious to see what kind of prodigies will join the Heavenly Martial Sect.”
Xia Yunchuan smiled and took his seat first, followed by Xuanxuzi and others who also sat down in turn.
Seeing this.
Gu Wu did not delay and immediately began the disciple recruitment process. The so-called recruitment was actually the method of bone touching to check the quality of one’s genetics; only those with the proper qualifications would pass the first screening and become a disciple of the Heavenly Martial Sect.
Then.
It was a test of one’s temperament, further refining the categorization of genetics to pinpoint those prime for focused cultivation.
The whole process went very smoothly.
Gu Wu sat at the primary seat, his demeanor calm, showing no hint of happiness or anger.

He was waiting.
Waiting for the arrival of Yunshan Sect.
Gu Wu had originally thought that Yunshan Sect would come from the start, but now that the disciple recruitment was nearly over and there was still no sign of them, it surprised him.
If Yunshan Sect did not come, that would be somewhat troublesome.
However.
Just as Gu Wu was contemplating this, suddenly an extremely terrifying presence descended, causing the complexions of all cultivators to shift, and even the subtle smile on Xia Yunchuan’s face had disappeared.
Only on Gu Wu’s face, there was a faint smile added.
“They’ve arrived!”
As his thought settled, he saw dozens of cultivators arriving through the air, each with an aura that had reached the Divine Transformation Realm. Leading them was a middle-aged cultivator with an eagle-eyed and wolf-like appearance, his sharp eyes making it hard for others to meet his gaze.
Upon seeing the newcomers, Xia Yunchuan and others all looked grim.
“Fu Shan!”
At this moment.
Fu Shan gave Gu Wu a slight bow, his smile all skin-deep as he said, “The Heavenly Martial Sect has grandly opened its doors, and Yunshan Sect has arrived a bit late. I hope Sect Leader Gu won’t take offense.”
“Sect Leader Fu’s presence is a great joy to me; how could I possibly find fault!”
Gu Wu too smiled faintly, though he remained polite in his words, he did not show any sign of getting up from his seat.
Seeing this.
Fu Shan’s brows furrowed almost imperceptibly, showing a hint of displeasure.
Just then, an elder from Yunshan Sect behind him rebuked angrily, “Our Sect Leader of Yunshan Sect has personally arrived, and this is how Heavenly Martial Sect shows its disrespect?”
“Who are you?”
Gu Wu’s smile receded, his gaze intently fixed on the other person.
Without any fear, the latter proudly said, “My name is Wen Hu, an elder of Yunshan Sect—”
Before Wen Hu could finish speaking, terrifying flashes of blade light suddenly cleaved through the air, and in an instant, his body was split in two halves, blood splattering across Heavenly Martial Sect.
The sudden turn of events changed the expressions of everyone.
It wasn’t just Fu Shan who was taken by surprise; even Xia Yunchuan and others had not expected it at all, staring at the perpetrator, Gu Wu, with a somewhat stunned expression.
What’s going on?
A fight breaking out without further ado?
More importantly.
Wen Hu was a cultivator at the Fifth Level of the Divine Transformation Realm, yet he was cut down by Gu Wu in a single encounter. Even if there was the suspicion of striking first for advantage, it was still enough to shock them.
But soon.
They came to their senses.
Wen Hu was dead.
Yunshan Sect would certainly not let this matter rest.
The various sects had come this time intending to familiarize themselves with the Heavenly Martial Sect, seeking future opportunities to ally against Yunshan Sect, but certainly not to tear their faces with Yunshan Sect right away.
It can be said.
That with Gu Wu’s action, he had caught everyone off guard.
“We’ve gone mad!!”
Even Xuanxuzi was now inwardly exclaiming, his eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at Gu Wu.
He had never imagined the Sect Master of Heavenly Martial Sect to be so rigid in his actions, resorting to killing over a disagreement.
Now that an elder from Yunshan Sect had fallen, it was clear without thinking that Yunshan Sect would not let this go easily.
If a conflict truly erupted between the two sides, Xuanxuzi felt that if he openly supported the Heavenly Martial Sect, then the millennia-old foundation of Qingfeng Sect might well be completely lost.
“Boom!”
It wasn’t until Wen Hu’s demise that Fu Shan reacted, a terrifying murderous intent erupting from him, his eyes staring fixedly at Gu Wu, the intent to kill distinctly unmasked.
“Sect Leader Gu kills an elder of Yunshan Sect; if there is no explanation given, today’s events will hardly end peacefully.”
