Urban Martial Saint

The Third Sect Master said he would stay with the Fifth Sect Leader, intending to intimidate Wanyan Hongfeng. Because if the two of them stayed behind, no one would send word to the Sword Saint Sect. However, he didn't anticipate that Wanyan Hongfeng wouldn't be threatened at all and still insisted they both remain, which surely complicates matters.

Given the current state of the Wanyan Family, the Third Sect Master and the Fifth Sect Leader are uncertain about how the Wanyan Family will treat them if they stay here. The matter of the Corpse Ghost Dragon serves as an example. If the Wanyan Family were to deal with them as they did with the Corpse Ghost Dragon, they'd rather die!

"Wanyan Hongfeng, don't be too excessive!" The Third Sect Master gritted his teeth and said, "Don't forget, your Wanyan Family and our Sword Saint Sect are merely in a cooperative relationship!"

In saying this, the Third Sect Master was warning Wanyan Hongfeng. If you go too far, don't blame us for becoming your enemies.

Wanyan Hongfeng sneered coldly, slowly rubbing the scabbard of the Minghong Knife in his hand, saying, "A cooperative relationship, that was in the past. From now on, the Wanyan Family and your Sword Saint Sect are no longer in a cooperative relationship!"

"What exactly do you mean?" The Third Sect Master roared angrily.

"Still don't understand?" Wanyan Second Master cut in coldly, "From now on, your Sword Saint Sect must work for our Wanyan Family. We are no longer in a cooperative relationship; your Sword Saint Sect will become a branch of our Wanyan Family!"

With these words, both the Third and Fifth Sect Masters were suddenly enraged: "Such arrogance to think our Sword Saint Sect will become your branch, dream on!"

"Dream or reality, regardless, my words are here: Either one of you returns to report, or both of you stay!" Wanyan Hongfeng casually waved the scabbard of the Minghong Knife, saying, "If those in the Sword Saint Sect think you two are unimportant and don't come for you, I will personally make a visit to your Sword Saint Sect."

The Third Sect Master's eyebrows furrowed immediately; what Wanyan Hongfeng said was actually telling them that if the Sword Saint Sect doesn't submit to the Wanyan Family, then the Wanyan Family would invade the Sword Saint Sect and force them to work for Wanyan Family.

If it were before, the Wanyan Family certainly wouldn't have such audacity. But now, things were different. Wanyan Hongfeng wielding the scabbard of the Minghong Knife meant he had the trump card, and even the Sword Saint Sect had to be wary of them!

After a moment of silence, the Third Sect Master slowly retreated a step, saying, "Wanyan Hongfeng, remember your words today. People from our Sword Saint Sect are absolutely not easy to bully!"

"Whatever!" Wanyan Hongfeng chuckled lightly, watching the Third Sect Master slowly retreating toward the door, saying, "It seems you've made your choice already, well then, if you go back to report, it will speed up the response. After all, the Heaven Earth Man Three Gates is about to open, I'd still very much like to negotiate with the Sword Saint Sect before that."

The Fifth Sect Leader's face changed; if the Third Sect Master left, wouldn't he be the only one left here? He definitely didn't want to stay here alone, nor did he wish to end up like the Corpse Ghost Dragon.

"Third Brother..." The Fifth Sect Leader looked at the Third Sect Master anxiously. Just then, even though the Third Sect Master had already backed away several meters, he suddenly shouted, "One Slice Two Halves!"

Upon hearing the Third Sect Master's words, the Fifth Sect Leader, almost reflexively, swung his hand fiercely, sending an invisible Saber Qi slashing towards Wanyan Hongfeng in front of him.

At the same time, the Third Sect Master also leaped into the air, striking down with a palm, also producing an invisible Saber Qi. Combined with the Fifth Sect Leader's Saber Qi, one horizontal, one vertical, they crashed towards Wanyan Hongfeng like a landslide. If this Saber Qi struck him, Wanyan Hongfeng would definitely be split into four pieces.

No one expected that even when the Third Sect Master was about to retreat, he would suddenly attack. These two Saber Qi came too suddenly, even someone like Wanyan Second Master with such skill, hadn't reacted yet, and both Saber Qi would already be in front of Wanyan Hongfeng. At this point, it seemed impossible for Wanyan Hongfeng to escape.

In this tense moment, Wanyan Hongfeng showed no signs of panic, his mouth curled into a cold smile, his right hand grasped the scabbard of the Minghong Knife, forcefully twisting it, forming a Qi Wall in front of him. Although these two Saber Qi came swiftly, they couldn't penetrate this Qi Wall, were directly blocked outside, unable to harm Wanyan Hongfeng in the slightest.

"Retreat!" As Wanyan Hongfeng blocked the attack, the Third Sect Master shouted out, then turned and ran out.

The Fifth Sect Leader had worked with the Third Sect Master for a long time; seeing him suddenly attack, he immediately understood the Third Sect Master's intentions. So, when the Third Sect Master shouted "retreat," he also immediately turned and followed the Third Sect Master in fleeing.

Wanyan Hongfeng held the scabbard of the Minghong Knife in his hand. In this battle, they both knew they couldn't win. Therefore, the two of them only made a move to delay Wanyan Hongfeng for a moment, planning to seize the opportunity to escape. Both of them were beyond peerless masters—if Wanyan Hongfeng didn't have the time to stop them, then no one else could stop them either.

Wanyan Second Master stood by the doorway. Seeing the two of them charging aggressively, he didn't dare to block them and quickly stepped aside. The Third Sect Master and the Fifth Sect Leader didn't dare to do anything else either and bolted out of the courtyard without delay, using their qinggong to the fullest as they desperately ran towards the outer parts of the manor.

The two had just run out of the courtyard when they suddenly heard a roar behind them, like the sound of a beast. Before they could figure out what was happening, they felt a strong force rushing towards them from behind. Startled, they quickly turned their heads to see a streak of black light chasing them through the air. Upon closer inspection, the black streak appeared to be a human arm, with an open hand and five fingers reaching towards them.

The two were shocked. Although they had never seen this black hand before, they now understood it was definitely a transformation power of Wanyan Hongfeng. Wanyan Hongfeng was a beyond peerless master, and with the scabbard of the Minghong Knife, he could endlessly wield peerless power, something they couldn't possibly compare with.

The hand moved extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, it was already upon them. However, the hand didn't reach for the Third Sect Master; instead, it completely enveloped the Fifth Sect Leader, pinning him to the ground like catching a mouse. No matter how much the Fifth Sect Leader struggled, he couldn't break free, his face turning red as if he could hardly breathe under the pressure of the giant hand.

"Third Sect Master, the same words as before!" Wanyan Hongfeng's voice came from within the courtyard: "You can leave, but the Fifth Sect Leader must stay. Remember, go back and tell your Sect Leader that I give him three days to consider. If he can't come up with a decision, I'll have to go to the Sword Saint Sect myself!"

As he finished speaking, the black hand rolled up the Fifth Sect Leader and dragged him back to the courtyard.

The Third Sect Master watched helplessly as the Fifth Sect Leader was dragged away, deeply shocked. Although he hadn't been struck by the hand's power, being so close, he could feel its overwhelming force. He had to admit, the transformation power of Wanyan Hongfeng was exceptionally strong. Even as a beyond peerless master himself, he had to concede defeat. Wanyan Hongfeng's strength was definitely above his and the Fifth Sect Leader's!

The Third Sect Master had been in the beyond peerless realm for over a hundred years. Technically, Wanyan Hongfeng was his junior in attaining this realm. Yet, why was Wanyan Hongfeng so powerful? The strength he displayed just now left the Third Sect Master in awe. He even suspected that Wanyan Hongfeng's power might surpass even the Corpse Ghost Dragon? But how could this be? Wanyan Hongfeng, after all, was only around one hundred and fifty years old, and he hadn't been in the beyond peerless realm for long. How could he have such formidable strength?

In fact, with Wanyan Hongfeng's strength, even without the scabbard of the Minghong Knife, he was an outstanding figure among beyond peerless masters. Now with the scabbard in hand, it was no wonder he was so arrogant, demanding the Sword Saint Sect become a branch of the Wanyan Family. He truly had the capability for such demands!

The Third Sect Master dared not have any further thoughts at this point. He understood he absolutely couldn't save the Fifth Sect Leader, and escaping himself was already fortunate. Thus, he didn't even respond and hurriedly fled out of the manor's area, rushing towards the outskirts of Shenchuan City overnight.

Inside the courtyard, the Fifth Sect Leader was thrown on the ground. Although unharmed physically, he was aware that Wanyan Hongfeng's transformation power had already injured him, leaving him with no strength to resist.

Wanyan Hongfeng slowly caressed the scabbard of the Minghong Knife in his hand, remained silent for a while, then placed it aside and looked at the Fifth Sect Leader, saying, "Alright, let's begin!"

The Fifth Sect Leader was confused, not knowing what Wanyan Hongfeng meant. What exactly was going to begin?

Receiving Wanyan Hongfeng's words, Wanyan Second Master and Wanyan Hongsheng immediately entered from outside. Wanyan Hongsheng held a short dagger in his hand, his face bearing a sinister smile, indicating nothing good.

"What... What are you going to do?" the Fifth Sect Leader asked in horror.

"Hahaha..." Wanyan Hongsheng laughed: "Fifth Sect Leader, there's no need to be afraid. We're here to help you. From now on, we'll all be one family, and to strengthen our ties, we're going to help you with a body modification. Once successful, you'll be one of the Wanyan Family!"

"What... What are you going to modify!?" The Fifth Sect Leader's face was even more horrified, as they were about to tamper with his body. How could he not be afraid?

Wanyan Second Master pointed to the Blood Coffin nearby, saying: "Look, just like the Corpse Ghost Dragon. It's very simple."

"What!?" The Fifth Sect Leader exclaimed in terror, but by then, he was utterly powerless to resist.
