The Strongest Sect of All Times

While that bearded male spoke, Jun Changxiao’s eyes had flashed with cold intent; the man sacrificed himself to the Cold Edge Sword, which was directly stabbed into his chest. 

Three words: quick, ruthless, and accurate!

“Ninth Brother!”

The remaining seven flew into a rage, filled with murderous intent!

Zhou Tianba’s expression had also become grotesque, the spiritual energy condensed around him rippling. 

“Big Chief.” Jun Changxiao calmly and clearly said, “This subordinate of yours spoke out of line; he didn’t understand politeness at all. This lord has helped you clean out the trash, you shouldn’t have an opinion, right?”

You killed my disciple?

Alright, then your subordinates will pay with their lives. 

It was worth saying that he, who had the status of Ironbone Unyielding’s sect head, looked unusually domineering right now!

Splish, splash. Splish, splat. 

The blood flowed from the would, splashing to the ground. 

Shua!

Jun Changxiao pulled the sword out and blood gushed. 

“You…” The bearded man looked fierce, but when he tried to take a step forward and punch, he field a fierce pain near his heart. Unable to support his body, he collapsed with a ‘putong’.

Meridian Opening Stage Twelve, easily killed. 

Importantly, the Cold Edge Sword was too sharp; Jun Changxiao’s sword had also been extremely quick, so quick that the bearded man hadn’t expected it at all!

“Fucker!” A bald bandit dashed forward, clenching his fists and spitting, “Killing my ninth brother means you’ve accepted death!”

“Stand down!” Zhou Tianba’s voice said. 

There was a sudden fluctuation of energy and the air rippled. 

The bald martial artists froze and he suppressed the energy, angrily returning to his seat. 

How powerful! Jun Changxiao was secretly shocked, though his expression remained the same. He prepared his sword to receive an attack. 

Even if Zhou Tianba hadn’t commanded the man, he had many methods to slice the bald man into ribbons. 

Whatever. I’ll let you live a little longer.

Pah, pah! 

Zhou Tianba clapped twice and then smiled. “Sect Head Jun’s sword was very quick a moment ago, proving his understanding of the sword way is extraordinary. This Zhou admired you!”

I’ve killed his subordinates, but he can still smile? Jun Changxiao cupped a fist and lightly said, “Big Chief has overpraised. This lord’s skill can still deal with your subordinates, but will be disgraced in front of an expert.”

When he said ‘subordinates’, he glanced over at the other bandit leaders intentionally, obviously looking down on them. 

Kacha!

Several bandits were so angry that they grit their teeth and clenched their fists. 

“Sect Head Jun.” Zhou Tianba smiled fakely and said, “Don’t talk nonsense. I have 31 of your disciples, if you hand over 3100 taels, you can leave with them.”

No wonder he could still bear it, he wanted money. 

Jun Changxiao said, “I can give you 100 taels for all my disciples, and our grievances will be written off.”

Pah!

Zhou Tianba smacked the armrest, vision cold. “Jun Changxiao, this Zhou is giving you face but you don’t seem to know the difference between good and evil!”

He could no longer suppress his fury.

To be able to hold it in until now, he seemed to have quite a lot of patience. 

“Big Chief!” The bald man stood up and angrily said, “Let this brother kill him! Afterwards, his money can be searched for!”

“Right!”

“Kill him and get revenge for Ninth Brother!”

The other six leaders also stood up, their eyes twinkling with killing intent and fists gleaming with energy. 

Ever since Jun Changxiao walked inside, he hadn’t liked the guy. Not the Ninth Chief had been killed and so he wished to rip this guy to shreds and get vengeance. 

“Boy.” Zhou Tianba’s eyes were cold as he said, “Since you don’t know the difference between good and evil, don’t call this Zhou cruel or merciless.”

Shua!

He flicked his right hand, hinting that the bald man could act. 

Deng, deng!

The bald man strode forward. Just as he was about to act, Jun Changxiao indifferently said, “Big Chief, this place is a little small, why don’t we move outside?”

Zhou Tianba coldly smiled, “Your choice!”

…

Outside the main hall. 

On the dirt training field. 

About 200 blood-thirsty bandits circled the area, each one of them glaring at Jun Changxiao. 

At Qingyang Commandery’s area, Sect Head Jun had once been surrounded by the disciples of two eighth-grade sects. Now, facing several hundred people, he had the faint feeling of being a sheep surrounded by wolves. 

“Boy.” The bald man stood at the center and took off his top, revealing large muscles. “I let you live a little longer.”

“Is that so?”

Jun Changxiao offered a calm smile. 

“Motherfucker, his smile makes me want to punch him!”

“Sixth Chief, kill this guy and get revenge for our brothers!”

“Killing is too easy, you have to chop his hands and feet off, then hang him up for several months on the pillar!”

“Yes, yes!”

The bandits roared. 

This was something they did frequently, otherwise there wouldn't be so many withered corpses lying around. 

Zhou Tianba sat on a large chair outside of the arena, indifferently saying, “Old Sixth, this little guy acts quickly, you must be careful.”

The sixth chief took half a step forward with his right, grinding the tip of his foot into the dirt. With a dark smile, he responded, “Big Chief, I will make him understand what ‘quick’ is.”

“This posture…”

“Is it possible that Sixth Chief is going to use ‘Seven Step Shadow Transformation’?”

“That’s ordinary-grade; they say if you comprehend that to accomplishment, you’ll just be like a mirage!”

“Sixth Chief rarely uses that; it’s such a fortune to see it today!”

The bandits were exclaiming, taking pleasure in other’s misfortune. As they stared at Jun Changxiao they all thought, Once Sixth Chief displays this footwork, this guy will be beaten so badly he won’t be able to find north.

Gah!

The audience was dumbfounded. 

Because, when they looked over, the Ironbone Sect Head was stretching his legs, then rocking back and forth on his feet; he even rolled his neck and shoulders. 

“What’s he doing?”

“He’s not having an epilectic episode, right?”

“Hmph. In my opinion, he’s just feigning madness and acting dumb!”

The martial artists of Falling Star Continent did not know that Jun Changxiao was stretching his muscles and warming up, preparing for the upcoming exchange. 

After a bit, he finished warming up. 

Jun Changxiao bent his back about halfway, his left hand assumed a partially grasping shape and he raised his right hand, index finger pointing. He clenched his teeth and grit out, “I don’t have much education, so don’t try to scare me!” [1] 

Gah. 

The audience was silent. 

Many bandits looked at his strange posture and mused, Did this guy have brain damage?

“Motherfucker!” Sixth Chief scolded, “You don’t have much education? What’s that got to do with me?!”

Saying that, the tip of his toe pressed into the dirt and there was a flash of light through his eyes. Suddenly, with a ‘whish’, he dashed forward. 

One step, two steps; they were the steps of a devil…

Pah, pah, pah. 

One step, two steps, three, four… seven steps! When Sixth Chief lifted his foot to take the eighth step, the air seeped ro ripple and he instantly transformed into a shadow!

That was Seven Steps Shadow Transformation!

Once a martial artist comprehended this technique, they would be able to condense the energy around them to form an illusionary figure; their speed would also instantly increase by several times!

Sure enough. 

By his eighth step, the Sixth Chief seemed to disappear on the st[p, his body accelerating at light speed forward. 

“So fast!” Jun Changxiao’s expression changed. 

At this moment, he was barely able to catch this man’s shadow — he was unable to see the man clearly!

[1] the original netizen saying is “i don’t have much education, so don’t try to fool me”, which is a sarcastic way to ask someone for the truth
