X-Dragon Era-Chapter 652 - Demon Dragon Dismemberment
Half an hour later, within the Sky-Opening Sect's main hall, all members of the sect had gathered. The atmosphere inside the hall was extraordinarily oppressive, and not a single person dared to breathe loudly.
Surveying the room, Xin Yun spoke in a somber tone, "Next, I have a major announcement to make. As of now, the Sky-Opening Sect is entering a state of war. Starting tomorrow, the Sky-Opening Sect will officially be at war with the Kashi Family until one side is completely finished. Only then will it end!"
"What!" Upon hearing Xin Yun's words, Mad Dragon Tie Zhan suddenly stood up, expressing his disbelief, "What did you say? The Kashi Family? Which Kashi Family? Could it possibly be..."
Giving a firm nod, Xin Yun calmly replied, "Yes, it is none other than the Kashi Family ranked seventh in the world. How about it... are you scared?"
"Scared?" Hearing Xin Yun's words, Mad Dragon paused for a moment. Although his eyes shone brilliantly, he burst into laughter and said, "Right... I am indeed scared. I'm just afraid that they won't give me a good fight, hahaha..."
In the silent great hall, only Mad Dragon Tie Zhan's laughter could be heard. Everyone else held their breath. Being ranked seventh in the world, what did that imply? There was no one present who did not understand. The Kashi Family alone had nearly more diamond-tier experts than all of the Sky-Opening Sect combined. How could they possibly fight against that?

Amid the laughter, Tie Zhan sensitively noticed that the atmosphere around him was a bit off. Turning his head to look back, what he saw were pale faces. He knew they were scared, terrified by the reputation of being seventh in the world, scared by the name of the Kashi Family.
"Damn it..." Cursing angrily, Tie Zhan whirled around and bellowed, "Look at you, one and all. Do you even count as my soldiers? Are you members of the Sky-Opening Sect? Are you men at all!"
Facing Tie Zhan's roar, everyone clenched their teeth. They couldn't be blamed for their fear. No one, not even the number one family in the world, dared to underestimate the Kashi Family. The Top Ten Families were not simple—they were beyond their ability to contend with.
Looking at the frightened faces, Tie Zhan cursed, "Dammit, being ranked seventh in the world is impressive, isn't it? Well, right now I have an Immortal Body. Kill me today, and I'll be back to kill tomorrow. Losing a head is nothing more than a bowl-size scar, and in the blink of an eye, I'm a stout-hearted man again! What are you afraid of!"
"Hmm? Ah! Oh? Hiss..." Hearing Tie Zhan's words, a variety of sounds suddenly filled the large hall. Yes... how could they have forgotten this? Death, what's there to fear? It's just a moment of pain. But in an instant, the Sect Master could revive them. After some recovery time, they would return to their peak state. There was nothing to fear!
"Well said!" Just then, Xin Yun slammed the table and stood up, declaring boldly, "We have nothing to fear. Let alone the seventh in the world; what about the first? They are ranked first because the Sky-Opening Sect didn't exist before, because I hadn't been born."
"Hahaha..." Laughter echoed in the hall at Xin Yun's words, and the tense atmosphere eased slightly. That was precisely Xin Yun's intention in making this statement.
Standing proudly on the stage, Xin Yun arrogantly proclaimed, "Now that I am here and the Sky-Opening Sect has been established, it's time for them to step down. We need not fear them. You must understand that as long as we fight like true men, it won't be long before the entire world fears us just as you now fear the Ten Great Families!"
"Huff... Huff..." Everyone began to breathe heavily upon hearing Xin Yun's words. If such a day truly came, death would be worth it. But... as a member of the Sky-Opening Sect, dying wasn't much of a concern since they could be quickly revived, so life or death wasn't really important.
Seeing the emotions of the crowd stirred, Xin Yun continued, "Take note, when I speak of the entire world, that includes the members of the current Ten Great Families. Hmph, what of the Top Ten Families? Our goals are not so narrow-minded. We aim to be an unparalleled existence, looking down on all forces without any equal. No one can stand shoulder to shoulder with our Sky-Opening Sect, no one!" With the last words, Xin Yun wasn't just speaking, he was yelling, a wild roar!
With Xin Yun's emotionally charged, almost furious proclamation, the whole hall's atmosphere finally ignited. Seeing this, Xin Yun struck while the iron was hot, fervently saying, "I'm not going to force anyone. Let's get real—I intend to eliminate some of you. There are too many here just freeloading. So... if anyone is afraid, if anyone wants out, I'm giving you a chance right now to leave without repercussions. But if you choose to stay, fight like a man!"
Upon hearing Xin Yun's words, a sense of urgency arose in everyone. They hadn't felt it before, but now everyone was well aware that being a member of the Sky-Opening Sect meant immortality, and... with such ideal conditions within the sect, everyone would become masters sooner or later. Such a sect was worth more than even the number one family in the world!
Indeed, many had been slackers in the past, hardly contributing to the Sky-Opening Sect. But now, as Xin Yun straightforwardly told them he was going to weed out some people, they all felt imperiled.
What did being eliminated mean? Right... it meant losing the chance to live forever, losing the superior conditions offered by the Sky-Opening Sect. If they left, where else could they find such a sect?
