Facing Willow God's threat, the four showed indifference, for their status assured them that the opponent wouldn't dare act.
"Indeed, a mere wild beast like Thunder Tiger, ignorant of the vast heavens!
We, Ancient Sects, invite you to choose out of respect for the Great Qin Empire; otherwise, do you think you're worthy of this Elder's time here?"
"But since you refuse to appreciate it, don't blame this Elder for letting you taste my Immortal Sword!"
Elder Xuan Yuan's tone was full of mockery, especially when mentioning Jiang Che, his disdain and resentment evident.
The next moment, he summoned an Ice Crystal Immortal Sword exuding intense coldness, holding it in hand.
Immediately, a powerful and oppressive Sword Intent erupted, as if cutting through heaven and earth.
Willow God remained unmoved, releasing his aura to clash with the opponent's, stirring gusting winds within the small courtyard.
"Indeed, just a small demon, daring to threaten our four Ancient Sects, unaware of its demise!
Originally today, we intended to show face to the Great Qin Empire and reason kindly with you, but who would expect you to posture, refusing us.
Thus, this Elder decides to strike today!"
Beside him, Elder Youyuan shook his head, looking down on Willow God, speaking with threat in his tone.
Seeing the tense atmosphere, Elder Rongku from Little Leiyin Temple, hands pressed together, stepped forward, advising, "Why insist, friend Willow God? Just select one of our sects as Great Qin Empire's state religion; all trouble will resolve, costing you nothing.
Keep resisting, and you'll meet your end in an instant."
After speaking, Elder Rongku glanced at Willow God, realizing he had no intention of yielding, his face cold.
Sighing, Elder Rongku shook his head helplessly, gave up persuading, and returned to the crowd. Yet, his presence grew sharper than before.
"Don't waste words on this fellow anymore, daring disrespect to our Ancient Sects deserves severe punishment.
Why not slaughter this being, use its branches to craft Spirit Treasures, and its wood-heart for my pill refining — a perfect solution."
Elder Qingshan from Pure Origin Immortal Sect sneered repeatedly, urging the crowd while a Crimson Fire Pill Furnace suddenly manifested in his palm, the temperature soared, sending waves of heat surging in all directions.
Facing humiliation, Willow God burned with fury, his eyes alight with anger, his aura pushed to its limit.
"You vile Ancient Sects, dare insult me so, and today you shall leave never to return!"
With those words, Willow God acted instantly; boundless green light filled the sky, sprawling in all directions, Jade Willow Branches like Order Divine Chains shot forth from the ethereal green, radiant light surrounding them, targeting Xuan Yuan and his companions.
"Such daring, a mere wild beast attacking us Ancient Sects, deserves death!"
Below, Xuan Yuan and the others were shocked, hardly believing Willow God would dare strike them, risking it all?
Even if they couldn't defeat her today, facing the four Ancient Sects afterward means sure death.
The Shushan Sword Sect refrained from avenging Thunder Tiger King's killings of their Swordchild and Elder immediately, fearing other sects might benefit.
An additional concern was Thunder Tiger King could flee, leaving them facing a hidden Tier Eight threat.
If Willow God expects equal treatment as Thunder Tiger King, she's gravely mistaken.
She's offending four Ancient Sects at once, and united they can swiftly eliminate her. Moreover, Willow God's true form resides within this Imperial Capital. Where can she escape?
Confronted by Willow God's attack, naturally, the four wouldn't remain passive, maneuvering their treasures to evade the incoming willow branches, soaring into the sky.
Boom~
In the next moment, the willow branches fiercely shot through the spot where the four once stood, piercing deep into the courtyard ground.
"Foul creature! Die!"
Elder Xuan Yuan roared in fury; his Immortal Sword unleashed radiant sword light, sword light filled the sky, endless Cold Ice Sword Qi manifested an ancient glacier, advancing toward Willow God.
The other three exerted their strength simultaneously; Elder Youyuan of Celestial Demon Sect summoned a blood-colored Treasure Bead filled with ghostly cries and wails, blood mist condensed on its surface, within seemed countless anguished souls whining.
Elder Rongku of Little Leiyin Temple, hands joined, appeared dignified, chanting inaudibly as a radiant golden Buddha Wheel rose slowly behind him, Buddha light shone universally, faint Buddha chant sung.
Elder Qingyun from Pure Origin Immortal Sect unleashed a Crimson Fire Pill Furnace brimming with endless flames, its top open, flames cascaded down.
In an instant, all four attacked Willow God together.
Willow God's expression was cold, his aura swept the area under the Power of Earth Veins, seeming like heavenly might overwhelming below.
At this moment, Willow God met the challenge, a Heaven-Opening Divine Willow Dharma Aspect subtly appearing behind him, advancing upon the four.
Rumble~
Suddenly, both sides clashed, spiritual light filled the air, deafening rumbling unceasingly.
However, faced with Willow God's greatly enhanced strength, the four were no match; each willow branch assaulting them was stronger than their full-fledged attacks, leaving them in disbelief.
Swish~
In the next moment, hundreds of hovering willow branches struck at them, heavily injuring and hurling them away.
Spurt~
The four spewed blood wildly, crashing to the ground, bodies bloodied and pitiful.
"Willow God, mark my words, next time will be your death!"
With a pale face, Elder Xuan Yuan glared hatefully at Willow God, seeing the advancing willow branches, dared not linger, crushed a small jade sword, instantly transforming into sword light, piercing through the void.
"Just a mere beast daring to injure us, prepare to die!"
Afterward, the remaining three each fled through various means, their departing glances toward Willow God filled with potent killing intent.
Willow God's expression was indifferent, unfazed by these threats.
Seeing them retreat, President Lin looked at Willow God with guilt, "Willow God, it's my Great Qin Empire that dragged you into this."
"President Lin, I'm tired, please leave now!"
Watching President Lin's departing silhouette, Willow God sighed inwardly.
"What a truly turbulent time!"
