Shushan.
The cliffs were precipitous, the bizarre rocks were jagged, and the towering mountains stood like giant swords piercing the sky. The eerie black mountain formations imparted a sense of stern hardiness.
On some of the high peaks, pavilions and towers stood tall, majestic palaces emanating a faint spiritual light. Between the peaks, dangerous rope bridges connected each mountain, with clouds swirling all around.
At this moment, on the peaks, numerous streaks of sword light were continually flying and weaving; these were Shushan disciples flying with their swords. Occasionally, from each mountain, the sword lights would take off and land.
Suddenly, outside Shushan, from the distant horizon, came two streaks of purple and cyan sword light.
The dazzling radiance instantly caught the attention of everyone within the Shushan Sword Sect.
"Look, what is that? It seems to be two swords!"
"Not good! Could it be some thieves are planning to attack our Shushan Sword Sect? How bold!"
"You two junior brothers, newly joined to the sect, may not know yet; these are our Shushan Sword Sect's treasures, the Purple and Cyan Twin Swords.
But how could the Purple and Cyan Twin Swords return from the outside on their own..."
"..."
The speed of the Purple and Cyan Twin Swords was extremely fast, and in a blink of an eye, they landed on a peak deep within Shushan.
A white-haired elder in a purple sword robe stepped out from his cave residence and extended his hand to catch the fallen Purple and Cyan Twin Swords.
"Weren't these Purple and Cyan Twin Swords taken by the Guardian Sword Elder to take vengeance on Tiger King Ridge? Why have they returned by themselves?"
The white-haired elder first frowned, then seemed to realize something, his face turned grim, and his entire being exuded an icy cold aura.
With only the Purple and Cyan Twin Swords returning and the Guardian Sword Elder not, what this signified was obvious.
Subsequently, the white-haired elder summoned his disciple.
"Master, what instructions do you have for me in summoning me here? Is it to check my progress?"
A young man in a sword robe walked over respectfully, bowing his hands in salute.
"Disciple, quickly go to the different peaks and seek out the elders. Tell them your master has an urgent matter to discuss with them and they should hurry to the Shushan Great Hall."
The white-haired elder solemnly instructed his disciple.
"Yes, I will go immediately!"
The young sword cultivator nodded and quickly left.
...
Within the Ten Thousand Beasts Realm, inside the Great Hall of Ten Thousand Beasts.
At this moment, most of the elders from the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall had all been summoned.
"We have just received news that the Guardian Sword Elder of the Shushan Sword Sect, carrying the Shushan treasures, the Purple and Cyan Twin Swords, went to Tiger King Ridge to hold them accountable, but ultimately failed to defeat the Thunder Tiger King and died by self-detonation!"
An elder resembling a Horned Qilin surveyed the monstrous beings present, speaking in a deep voice.
"What? This Shushan Sword Sect truly is a waste, bringing the Purple and Cyan Twin Swords and still did not manage to kill that Thunder Tiger King, and ended up blowing themselves up? Since when did the human sects and their powers become so weak?"
An elder with a bear's head and a human body, exuding murderous intent, was momentarily stunned before speaking furiously.
Completely unable to imagine how the Shushan Sword Sect, an ancient great power, could be so feeble as to be so easily defeated.
Such an act wasn't just seeking justice; it was like delivering themselves.
"The Thunder Tiger King is merely a wild demon, yet even so, the Shushan Sword Sect cannot contend against him. It is conceivable how much these ancient human powers have declined!
It seems that the plan to use human powers to deal with the Thunder Tiger King is likely to fail now... Hmph, the Shushan Sword Sect is indeed utterly useless!"
The Silver-Scaled Python Elder not far away, with eyes flashing with disdain, then, considering the dismal performance of the Shushan Sword Sect again, sneered coldly, dissatisfied.
Suddenly, that cold snort reverberated inside the hall like thunder, manifesting his extreme dissatisfaction with the Shushan Sword Sect.
Remember, this plan to draw attention to Tiger King Ridge from all major human powers was his idea.
He was initially extremely joyful seeing the Black Demon Tiger devouring the sword disciple.
After all, with the death of the Shushan Sword Disciple, the Shushan Sword Sect surely wouldn't let it rest and would naturally seek trouble with Tiger King Ridge.
Locking horns with a major human power—could Tiger King Ridge fare well?
Even if the Thunder Tiger King were not to die, he'd be seriously injured.
At that point, they, the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, without lifting a finger, could avenge the elder who was killed.
But what he never expected was that the Shushan Sword Sect would be so wasteful. The renowned Guardian Sword Elder, coupled with the powerful Purple and Cyan Twin Swords, still couldn't rival the Thunder Tiger King.
"The strength of the Guardian Sword Elder of the Shushan Sword Sect is well-known, and together with the Purple and Cyan Twin Swords, even then, they couldn't manage the Thunder Tiger King.
This guy's strength must be incredibly strong, even stronger than quite a few elders present here.
This indicates our previous decision not to clash recklessly with him was very wise; otherwise, our Ten Thousand Beasts Hall might suffer losses, which would be very unwise!"
The White Fox Lady fanned her round fan, her expression grave as she spoke.
"Strong so what? Do you mean that because they are strong, our Ten Thousand Beasts Hall should not avenge our grudge? Is it right to let the Thunder Tiger King be arrogant like this?"
The bear-headed, human-bodied Demon King, holding a battle axe, spoke somewhat dissatisfied.
He had already been somewhat against the decision of the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall to temporarily hold off on revenge. Whoever dared to provoke the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall should be hit back hard, even if it meant some sacrifice; what does it matter!
"Hehe, don't worry! The Thunder Tiger King will not be jumping around for long.
Now that a Guardian Sword Elder from the Shushan Sword Sect has died, those lunatics from the Shushan Sword Sect will certainly not let it rest and will definitely seek revenge again, and with greater intensity than this time.
There are a lot of elders in the Shushan Sword Sect; no matter how strong the Thunder Tiger King may be, how many can he handle at once?
We only need to wait patiently, and we will surely hear news of the Thunder Tiger King being killed or severely injured."
The White Fox Lady's gaze flickered, explaining to the assembled elders.
Upon hearing this, all the elders of the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall brightened; indeed, that makes sense.
"Exactly! With the death of a Guardian Sword Elder, the Shushan Sword Sect will not endure it silently and will certainly launch a massive raid on Tiger King Ridge!"
"Hahaha, that's better; seeing the Thunder Tiger King being complacent makes this elder very uncomfortable!"
"Hmph, this Thunder Tiger King is truly a foolish beast. Let's see how long you remain arrogant..."
"..."
In the secret realm where the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall is located, on the Fox Race Mountain peak.
"What? The Thunder Tiger King killed the Guardian Sword Elder of the Shushan Sword Sect?"
Hearing the news, the Nine-tailed Fox was greatly shocked.
This Thunder Tiger King is way too strong; first killing the Elder Red Sparrow of the Ten Thousand Beasts Hall, and then turning around and slaughtering the Guardian Sword Elder of the Shushan Sword Sect too!
Although the Guardian Sword Elder self-detonated, in the Nine-tailed Fox's view, wasn't he still forced to death by the Thunder Tiger King?
"This is the end; the Thunder Tiger King is likely to face severe retaliation from the Shushan Sword Sect!"
The next moment, the Nine-tailed Fox's expression suddenly became serious.
Thunder Tiger King, you had better not die; you still owe me my treasure!
