A few hours later.

Shushan.

At the highest peak, within the main hall of the Sword Sect, the atmosphere was extremely heavy. Over a dozen senior members, exuding fierce Sword Intent, sat on either side of the hall, their expressions growing darker by the moment.

Upon learning the Sword Disciple was killed, the Shushan Sword Sect was furious beyond measure.

This was the sect's number one prodigy, the face of Shushan Sword Sect beyond its borders.

Yet now, this representative figure of Shushan Sword Sect was swallowed by a beast. How could the face of Shushan Sword Sect remain? Surely, they'd be mocked to death by other sects!

The hardest pill to swallow was that the Black Demon Tiger was encountered by three prodigies, yet in the end, only the Shushan Sword Disciple died, while the Dao Disciple and the Saint Son escaped unscathed.

If this got out, what would people outside think?

Isn't it obvious, showing that Shushan Sword Sect is inferior to Celestial Dao Sect and Celestial Demon Sect?

Every time they thought of this, they felt enraged enough to vomit blood. It was simply outrageous!

"How dare this Black Demon Tiger, even to lay a hand on our Sword Disciple of Shushan!"

"We must strike with a heavy hand, kill this cursed beast, cut off its head, and hang it before our sect to serve as a warning, so these demon clans know the consequences of angering Shushan Sword Sect!"

An elder in purple robes, with white hair and a celestial aura, slammed the tea table beside him and roared in anger.

"Indeed, if we do not take immediate action, the world will think Shushan Sword Sect is afraid!

Even with the Thunder Tiger King's protection, so what? If Shushan Sword Sect wishes, Tiger King Ridge can still be shattered with one stroke!"

A middle-aged man opposite, with a face full of killing intent, emitted a dangerous aura, the fierce Sword Intent swirling in his eyes.

"The Black Demon Tiger killed our Sword Disciple, ruining the great momentum of Shushan Sword Sect. No matter where it hides, it must be brought back for a public execution to serve as a warning to others!"

"I agree, we must take immediate action before they leave Tiger King Ridge, capture them back!"

"The murder of our Sword Disciple must be repaid by skinning the Black Demon Tiger alive..."

"Kill the Black Demon Tiger..."

"..."

After some discussion, the senior members reached a unanimous decision to immediately dispatch personnel to Tiger King Ridge and capture the Black Demon Tiger!

Tiger King Ridge, within Peach Grove Valley.

"Big brother, you called for me? Did you find out what I did?"

Hearing this, Fang Yuan walked forward proudly, thinking that his great achievements had been noticed by the leader.

"You really did a good thing! Idiot! Now, Shushan Sword Sect is definitely going to cause trouble for Tiger King Ridge!"

Jiang Che spoke irritably.

This guy's skin was really thick. If not scolded, he felt proud?

They weren't children; he didn't believe the second brother didn't know the consequences of his actions.

The Shushan Sword Disciple was backed by Shushan Sword Sect; even a fool would know this.

"I know about that!"

Fang Yuan did not deny it and nodded.

"Then what were you thinking? Are you actually trying to cause trouble for Tiger King Ridge?"

Jiang Che looked at Fang Yuan speechlessly, marveling at the other's peculiar train of thought.

Could his second brother, the reincarnation of the Demon Monarch, have other hidden motives?

But Jiang Che didn't think so!

"I was annoyed by those people from the Great Qin Empire constantly comparing the useless Shushan Sword Disciple with you, Big Brother.

Then, seeing these guys try to provoke Tiger King Ridge enraged me even more, so I thought of giving them a harsh lesson!"

Mentioning the Sword Disciple, Fang Yuan spoke angrily.

"So, you killed the Shushan Sword Disciple?"

Jiang Che's eyes widened; was the lesson swallowing him whole? The second brother's understanding of a lesson was indeed unique.

"Hehe, at the time, hearing the Shushan Sword Disciple curse you, Big Brother, I couldn't hold back and acted!"

Upon hearing this, Fang Yuan's eyes turned slightly, and he chuckled.

He didn't dare to admit he intended to swallow all three of them; otherwise, the leader might have beaten him up.

Jiang Che's eyes looked skeptical, then he sighed helplessly.

He couldn't tell if it was true that the second brother was outraged because the Sword Disciple cursed him, leading to the killing?

But it was too late to say anything now. The pressing issue was dealing with the impending arrival of the Shushan Sword Sect.

…

In the sky, more than a dozen sword lights of various colors raced through the clouds, emitting a terrifying sword screech.

On the Immortal Swords stood members of the Sword Sect from Shushan, their faces cold, surrounded by fierce Sword Qi.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh!

The next moment, a middle-aged sword cultivator wearing a dark sword robe with a resolute face led the way, and behind him, over a dozen sword lights quickly descended.

Moments later, the sword lights hovered over Tiger King Ridge.

At this moment, the powerful Sword Qi emanating from these sword cultivators of Shushan Sword Sect gathered rapidly, and just by standing there, it was as if a Heaven-Supporting Divine Sword exuding terrifying divine power stood over Tiger King Ridge.

Feeling the terrifying power, the demon soldiers below wailed in fear, tucking their tails, scrambling to flee.

"Thunder Tiger King, come out quickly!"

The middle-aged sword cultivator at the front, sword light flashing in his eyes, shouted loudly towards Tiger King Ridge below.

Instantly, that voice rumbled like thunder, spreading in all directions.

Within Peach Grove Valley.

Hearing the shout, Jiang Che frowned.

The Shushan Sword Sect had arrived?

"Big brother, I'll go take a look!"

Nangong Luo, having the same thought as Jiang Che, quickly flew out of the array.

"Second brother, you see, they've come! This is your doing!"

Jiang Che looked at Fang Yuan in front of him, speaking with a wry smile.

This guy was truly a troublemaker!

A fierce battle seemed inevitable.

Jiang Che thought to himself.

"Don't worry, big brother. Even if Shushan Sword Sect has come, so what? Tiger King Ridge isn't afraid of the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, so what can a mere Shushan Sword Sect do to us?"

Fang Yuan said with a smile.

Having seen the big brother kill the elder of the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, Fang Yuan feared these ancient forces hardly anymore.

Hearing this, Jiang Che's expression froze, his tiger palms itching, wanting to slap something for relief.

This second brother truly needed a severe beating to learn his lesson!

Was this about whether Tiger King Ridge could handle it?

Jiang Che mainly didn't want Tiger King Ridge to make too many enemies!

At this time, Nangong Luo flew back, his face somewhat unsightly.

"Big brother, it's people from Shushan Sword Sect. They want us to hand over the second brother, or suffer the consequences!"

Hearing this, Jiang Che frowned slightly, handing over the second brother was impossible.

Not just because of the relationship with the second brother, but if they took him from Jiang Che, would the fame of Thunder Tiger King remain?

At worst, they'd have to fight.

"Big brother, how dare Shushan Sword Sect be so arrogant? Let me go and swallow them whole!"

Fang Yuan spoke with furious anger.
