C20 The Saber God Cult

"Divine Blade Sect!" Chang Hengkong said with a serious expression.

"Divine Blade Sect?" Hengtian looked at the crowd with a puzzled expression.

When these words came out, not only Chang Hengkong, but everyone also revealed a strange expression as they looked at Hengtian in disbelief. They couldn't help but look at Xu Hongkang, whose face was filled with shock, as if they had seen something that they didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

"Young hero, don't tell me you don't know about the Divine Blade Sect?" Chang Hengkong stared at Hengtian and asked with a bit of doubt.

"To tell you the truth, I came here for the Black Blade Diagram. As for the Divine Blade Sect that you are talking about, I really don't know about it. I hope that you seniors can explain it to me. This matter is very important to me, and I will remember the kindness of solving it. If there is anything that I can do in the future, I will definitely do my best to complete it." Hengtian said solemnly to everyone.

Hearing this, everyone's eyes lit up. After muttering to themselves for a while, they all looked at Chang Hengkong, who was standing at the side.

Seeing that everyone was looking at him, Chang Hengkong's face immediately turned pale. However, after thinking for a while, he revealed a light smile and said, "Since you want me to speak, then I will speak for Young Hero Hengtian."

After that, everyone's faces immediately turned ashen. They wanted to look at Chang Hengkong and ask him to reject them, so that they could argue without any hesitation. This way, they would not offend the Su family, but they would also be able to make this promising young man owe them a favor. Why not? However...

Everyone cursed the old fox in their hearts.

"Hehe, this is just a small matter. This old man will naturally inform Young Hero. However, forgive me for being blunt. Since you don't know anything about the Divine Blade Sect, why are you looking for it? Young hero, please don't misunderstand. If you don't want to tell me, I won't force you. I will also tell you about the Divine Blade Sect."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone felt the lobby turn cold. They saw that Hengtian's eyes were filled with killing intent, and the blood within his body was surging like a raging ocean, pressuring them to the point where they couldn't breathe.

After that, Hengtian circulated the Seven Stars Technique and suppressed the boundless anger in his heart, suppressing the surging blood in his body. However, the thick killing intent in his eyes could not be concealed no matter what.

"Kill the enemy!"

It was just two simple words, but it made everyone feel a heavy pressure. It was like ice spears and swords piercing into their hearts. They felt a cold sensation in their hearts and their feet started to feel numb.

When he saw Hengtian's strange behavior, Chang Hengkong looked at him expressionlessly. When he heard his words, he looked at Hengtian's trembling right hand. The black blade's ink painting had already been torn apart, and his eyes flashed with killing intent. He nodded his head and thought to himself, "So that's how it is..."

Then, Chang Hengkong turned his head and looked at the crowd. Especially when he saw Xu Hongkang, his face was filled with a bitter smile and a self-deprecating look of guilt. Everyone looked at him and Hengtian, not knowing whether they should laugh or cry.

Chang Hengkong walked in front of Hengtian and said, "Since Young Hero has such a grudge with the Divine Blade Sect, I will definitely tell Young Hero everything I know. Also, the person who attacked you just now has an irreconcilable grudge with the Divine Blade Sect. He did that because he hated the Divine Blade Sect. Perhaps, the two of you can work together to deal with the Divine Blade Sect."

Hearing that, Hengtian glanced at Xu Hongkang and immediately understood the cause and effect of the situation. He thought to himself, [No wonder. My age and my cultivation level are too shocking for those of the secular world. It is inevitable that they will misunderstand. It seems that my brother is right. I should keep a low profile.]

"Young Hero Hengtian, I have offended you a lot just now. I hope you can forgive me." Xu Hongkang slowly walked in front of Hengtian and cupped his fists in shame.

"Senior, you are being too serious. This junior did not hold back when he attacked just now, so much so that he injured Senior. He has not apologized to Senior yet, so how can he do this?"

"Alright, you two don't have to push me anymore. In my opinion, the two of you have become friends after a fight. How about it?"

Hearing this, Hengtian and Xu Hongkang looked at each other and couldn't help but laugh softly.

"Since the two of you have reconciled, then I will tell you a few things about the Divine Blade Sect. Also, the two of you should listen carefully. It's time to let you know some things." Chang Hengkong turned around and said to Su Gui and Su Mei'er.

The two of them nodded and looked at Chang Hengkong with a serious expression.

"Senior Chang, please speak. Junior will definitely listen attentively." Hengtian humbly asked for guidance.

Chang Hengkong nodded. Then, a serious expression appeared in his muddy eyes. He sighed and said, "The Divine Blade Sect used to be a small sect in the martial arts world. Its name was the Thousand Blade Sect, and the sect master was only at the intermediate stage of the Acquired Stage. However, for some unknown reason, from sixteen years ago, the Thousand Blade Sect suddenly changed its name to Divine Blade Sect.

At first, nothing happened in the martial world. After all, the martial world was a bloody and cruel inn. Such things happened every day, so nobody paid much attention to it. However, after the name of the sect was changed, a mysterious sect master appeared. "

"Sect master?"

Hengtian could not help but frown, his eyes constantly flickering.

"That's right, this mysterious sect master has never shown his face before, but he has three protectors under his command, and their strength is all at the Innate Realm. Their strength is definitely not something that an ordinary Innate Expert can match. They are Insane Blade, Saber Servant, and Saber Maid. Among them, the Insane Blade was the strongest. He was the chief protector, followed by the Saber Servant and the Saber Maid, and he was the left protector and the right.

Ever since the mysterious Patriarch established the Divine Blade Sect, the three protectors under him led more than a hundred people from the Thousand Blades Sect to swallow up one faction after another. In just five years, they had become a famous sect in the martial arts world. Even those sects that had been passed down for hundreds of years didn't dare to provoke the Divine Blade Sect."

"Five years ago, a total of eleven experts of the Innate Realm secretly infiltrated into the Divine Blade Sect's main altar, hoping to uproot the Divine Blade Sect. However, what they didn't expect was that the eleven experts of the Innate Realm had never appeared since.

The inner part of the Divine Blade Sect was also calm. There was no wind at all. More than a dozen innate experts seemed to have disappeared from the world.

However, even if the Divine Blade Sect's Third Guardian's strength is extraordinary, and is much stronger than an ordinary Innate Expert, it is absolutely impossible for him to deal with eleven people of the same level at the same time, let alone make eleven Innate Experts disappear without a trace as if they had fallen into an abyss!"

"Can it be that Divine Blade Sect plotted to frame eleven experts?" Su Gui guessed.

"Ordinary people might think so, but how could it be so easy to kill an expert of the Innate Realm? Without reaching the Innate Realm, one would never be able to understand the difference between the Acquired Realm and the Innate Realm. A few people who knew the truth speculated that the disappearance of the eleven experts was related to the mysterious Sect Master of the Divine Blade Sect who had never appeared. Moreover, it was very likely that he had killed them alone!"

"What!?"

Except for Hengtian and Chang Hengkong, who were expressionless, everyone in the hall was filled with shock and exclamations. Even when it came from Chang Hengkong's mouth, it was still hard for people to believe, because all of this was beyond their understanding.

"Is it true that the Innate Realm isn't the peak of martial arts?" It was only after a long time that someone asked this question.

"I am not too sure about what is beyond the Innate Realm. After all, I have been stuck at that realm for more than twenty years. I am afraid I haven't made much progress in my life, but..."

Speaking up to this point, Chang Hengkong paused and glanced at Hengtian.

Although Hengtian was surprised by this, he thought about it and felt relieved.

"According to what Elder Chang said, the strength of the Divine Blade Sect's sect master has already surpassed the Innate Realm, right? Then we..."

"I can't say for sure, but there's one thing I can be sure of: one can never judge a person's strength with a worldly eye. After all, there is no end to learning, and no one dares to say anything about the peak of martial arts."

Of all the people present, which one of them was a fool? They naturally understood the meaning behind Chang Hengkong's words. It was obvious that Chang Hengkong was trying to prevent everyone from panicking and panicking, so he said this ambiguously.

The great hall naturally fell into a deathly silent atmosphere. Chang Hengkong seemed to have expected this. He shook his head lightly and said, "However, you guys don't have to worry too much. Although the Divine Blade Sect is powerful, its actions are not as overbearing and arrogant as those of the other large sects. As long as you guys don't provoke it easily, it's fine. As for you, brat Xu..."

Chang Hengkong looked at Xu Hongkang with a complicated expression, then shook his head and turned around with a sigh: "You should also take care of yourself..."

With that, Chang Hengkong called Su Gui, Su Mei'er, and Hengtian and walked out of the lobby, leaving behind the people who were still deep in thought.

Walking out of the hall, Chang Hengkong walked straight ahead with his hands behind his back without saying a word. The three of them did not say a word, and followed behind Chang Hengtian, slowly arriving at the Su family's backyard.

After a long while, Chang Hengkong slowly came back to his senses and looked at the three of them.

"Young Master, Mei'er, you two go and arrange a place for the Young Hero Hengtian to stay. Grandpa Chang still has something to discuss with the Young Hero Hengtian." Chang Hengkong said slowly.

The two men looked at each other, and saw a trace of doubt and curiosity in each other's eyes.

"Oh..."

The two of them were smart people. Although they had their own doubts, they still obediently answered each other and left the backyard together.

Unbeknownst to Hengtian, when Su Mei'er turned around and left, she looked at Hengtian with a complicated expression, and her watery eyes were even more indecisive. Although she quickly retracted her gaze, it was still seen by Chang Hengkong.

"Chang... Senior Chang, what are you doing...?" When Hengtian turned around, he saw Chang Hengkong looking at him with a strange expression.

"Ah... Oh... No, nothing. I was a little absent-minded. Young hero, don't blame me!" Chang Hengkong hurriedly laughed.

Looking at Chang Hengkong's attitude, although Hengtian was puzzled, he did not think too much about it. After all, all old people were like this.

After a short while, Chang Hengkong's face returned to normal, and his cloudy eyes suddenly lit up. He stared at Hengtian and said with a smile, "Young Hero, I have always had a question in my heart. I hope that Young Hero can tell me honestly."

"Senior, please ask."

"Fine. Since you are so straightforward, then I won't be long-winded. However, before I ask, I still have to apologize to you, so as to make you angry."

"Please ask."

Hengtian seemed to have noticed something and his expression couldn't help but become serious.

"I wonder if Young Hero is... a Spiritual Cultivator?"
