Supreme Emptiness-Chapter 727: Regret
"""
In the distance.
A group of imposing figures, riding on spirit beasts, advanced toward the Giant Sect.
They had powerful builds and an awe-inspiring presence.
Like a torrent surging through the vast white snow, galloping with unbridled momentum.
An elder, slightly uneasy, kept glancing back repeatedly.
He let out occasional sighs.
He still felt that the Sect Master might have stirred up trouble this time.
Killing Li Qingfeng.
The Green Cloud Sect would never let this matter rest.
"Supreme Elder Zhou, can you have a bit more confidence in yourself?"
Kong Yuanba shot him a sidelong glance.
Ever since two Supreme Elders at Ninth Layer Perfection of Core Formation had fallen in battle.
Kong Yuanba’s strength now rivaled that of any Supreme Elder.
Previously, Fang Taiji had held him down.
Now, he was the true undisputed master of the Giant Sect.
To the extent that he no longer showed the same respect toward the Supreme Elders as he once did.
Zhou Qingcang sighed: "Enough, the matter has come to this point. What use is there for me to keep talking?"
"As long as the Sect Master doesn’t regret it, it’s fine."
He could foresee.
It wouldn’t be long before the Green Cloud Sect caught up.
A fierce battle between the two sides was inevitable.
No matter how strong the Giant Sect was, even as one of the Upper Three Sects, no matter how much stronger than the Green Cloud Sect.
It was impossible to emerge completely unscathed, without a single casualty.
To invite such a consequence for a moment of thrill.
It was incredibly imprudent.
"Regret?"
Kong Yuanba scoffed: "Those two words don’t exist in my dictionary!"
A faint moan~
A soft sound rang out.
Xu Yining had awakened.
She abruptly sat up, her eyes instantly sharp, and lunged at Kong Yuanba like a madwoman.
"You killed my master!"
Kong Yuanba snorted through his nostrils.
He casually waved his sleeve, which lashed against Xu Yining.
"Ah!"
Xu Yining hadn’t even reached the Core Formation Realm.
How could she withstand such a blow?
She was instantly struck down, sprawling face-first onto the ground.
The fabric on her back was torn apart, exposing her snow-white, smooth jade-like back.
The faint outline of the strings tied to her undergarments was also visible.
"Just like your master, you’re an overconfident fool!"
Kong Yuanba snorted coldly through his nostrils.
But his gaze roamed wantonly over her snow-white back.
"So pure white."
"That brat Jiang Fan… to abandon someone like you."
"Truly doesn’t know how to treasure what he has."
On the nearby spirit beasts, several of his True Disciples sat watching.
Among them was Xue Wanchong. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
His towering frame, measuring two zhang tall, resembled a small hill.
His tiger-like eyes, as large as bronze bells, greedily surveyed her.
A burning heat flickered in his gaze.
"Master, I was struck by Liu Qingxian’s sword, and that grudge still hasn’t been avenged."
"This woman is Jiang Fan’s rightful betrothed."
"Taking revenge on her would count the same, wouldn’t it?"
Kong Yuanba chuckled darkly: "Oh?"
"How do you intend to take revenge?"
He’d always doted on this Half-Giant disciple.
Second only to Jin Zhongming.
If this disciple wanted revenge, how could he as the master possibly disapprove?
Xue Wanchong licked his lips and smirked, saying:
"Naturally, I will strike her just as fiercely with my blade!"
"Let her taste my blade’s power."
The male disciples present erupted in a series of knowing, raucous laughter.
Their eyes gleamed faintly with excitement.
Xu Yining, such a stunning beauty, had few in the Nine Sects who could rival her.
Ordinary disciples like them weren’t even qualified to dream about her.
But now, things were different.
They all had a chance to line up and savor the taste of this top-grade beauty.
It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
So they jeered and coaxed eagerly.
Wishing they didn’t have to wait three days.
Xu Yining clenched her teeth in defiance: "Don’t even think about it!"
She pulled out the hairpin from atop her head and pressed it against her chest.
And spat a mouthful of blood-tinged saliva fiercely toward Kong Yuanba.
"Defile me and hope to use me as bait for Jiang Fan?"
"You’re all dreaming!"
Resolutely, she drove the hairpin deep into her chest.
But, beside her ear, a thunderous snort from Kong Yuanba exploded like a thunderclap.
"Seek death in my presence?"
"Who gave you the delusion you had such a privilege?"
A gust of wind whipped toward her.
Xu Yining’s head throbbed in pain, and she passed out instantly.
Kong Yuanba withdrew his fist, snorting coldly: "I had planned to keep you until Jiang Fan showed up."
"So that, in his presence, I could let my Giant Sect disciple humiliate you."
"But since you’re intent on taking your life, I’ll just let my disciples have their taste first!"
With a tap of his toe.
He sent Xu Yining flying onto Xue Wanchong’s spirit beast.
"Xue Wanchong goes first, Jin Zhongming second…"
Jin Zhongming, sitting on the edge, remarked indifferently: "Master, this disciple will pass on this."
Why should Xue Wanchong get to go first?
The master was growing increasingly biased toward Xue Wanchong!
Jin Zhongming would go first, or not at all!
Kong Yuanba glanced at him and replied: "Suit yourself."
Since Jin Zhongming wasn’t destined to reach the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion within the next ten years.
His value had diminished significantly.
"Second will be Shi Xiangming, third Huang Lin, fourth…"
The disciples whose names were called cheered and stripped off their robes.
Like starving wolves, they stared hungrily at Xu Yining’s captivating figure.
Xue Wanchong stripped down completely.
With one massive palm, he grabbed Xu Yining’s waist and lifted her into the air.
Gazing at this ethereal beauty, Xue Wanchong drooled uncontrollably.
"Little beauty, I won’t hold back."
He extended two thick, sturdy fingers, pinched her collar, and began to pull.
BOOM——
Suddenly.
From the edge of the heavens, a thunderous sound echoed.
Xue Wanchong’s hand trembled.
He looked up at the sky in shock.
The sky was azure and cloudless, as if washed clean.
Where was the thunder coming from?
A disciple urged him: "Senior Brother Xue, just ignore it."
"It’s probably the True Thunder Sect bunch messing around."
Xue Wanchong thought this made sense.
Under the circumstances, it could only be someone skilled in Thunder and Lightning Divine Power using thunder techniques.
He turned back to focus on the beauty before him again.
With an evil grin, he reached to tear her clothes.
BOOM——
Another thunderous roar rang out.
Significantly louder and more intense than before.
It seemed to be drawing rapidly closer.
Now.
Not only Xue Wanchong, but Kong Yuanba also looked toward the source of the sound.
"What trick is Lei Zhenhai playing now?"
In the True Thunder Sect, only Lei Zhenhai, skilled in Cloud Shadow, could move at such speed.
BOOM——
The third thunderclap echoed.
The sound was overwhelming like heavenly wrath, shaking everyone to their core.
"It’s not Lei Zhenhai!"
Kong Yuanba rose to his feet, a look of shock in his eyes.
Judging by the force of the sounds, whoever was performing the thunder techniques had crossed no less than dozens of miles in an instant.
Lei Zhenhai’s Cloud Shadow could only teleport a hundred zhang at most.
BOOM——
The fourth thunder roar.
The sky seemed to shatter, terrifying the spirit beasts into freezing in place.
They dared not advance further.
Kong Yuanba and the group of Giant Sect Supreme Elders grew tense.
It was getting closer!
The intruder was rushing toward them!
Zhou Qingcang exclaimed: "Which mighty expert is traversing the Thunder Path?"
"Why are they coming toward us?"
"We have not provoked any cultivator skilled in the Thunder Path!"
The other Supreme Elders were deeply shocked as well.
The intensity of this thunderous presence was genuinely terrifying.
Across the Nine-Sect Land, not even the Heavenly Mechanism Pavilion housed someone so accomplished in the Thunder Path.
What unsettled them deeply.
Was that from the sound of the thunder, the intruder was coming directly for them!
Even Kong Yuanba felt skittish.
He clasped his hands respectfully toward the direction of the thunder, bowing.
"Senior, we are from the Giant Sect."
"Please, spare us any mistaken harm!"
BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM——
The fifth thunderclap struck!
The terrifying sound of Thunder Explosion.
Shocked every spirit beast into trembling and cowering, their cries filled with despair.
Disciples with low-tier cultivation were knocked flat to the ground instantly, blood spurting from their mouths and noses.
In the same moment.
A flash of lightning pierced the heavens and earth.
One blinding burst of thunder light eclipsed daylight.
Turning the entire world into an expanse of white.
No one could keep their eyes open!
The annihilating Thunder Breath swept across!
Kong Yuanba instinctively shut his eyes.
When the thunder light faded and he reopened them.
What met his gaze shook his very soul.
His cherished disciple, Xue Wanchong.
Had no head!
It wasn’t severed.
It had been smashed, along with his neck, into his chest!
The Xu Yining he had been holding.
Had appeared in another person’s embrace.
A man, clad in dark robes that billowed in the fierce wind.
Strands of thunder breath swirled endlessly around his form.
His icy, piercing eyes seemed to connect straight to the depths of the Nine Hells.
Releasing a chilling, bone-deep frost.
And as they saw his face clearly.
Kong Yuanba gasped in shock:
"Jiang Fan?"
