Chapter 761: Chapter 758 Six Demon Sect

The incident at the Long Family, despite being quelled by the iron-handed approach of Long Kun, still had some news leaked out.

After all, the internal changes within a top power are bound to attract attention.

What’s more, the complete replacement of the Long Family’s upper echelons was an unprecedented event.

Luckily, the reopening of Sword Tomb, the return of the Sun Swallowing Sect in the Southern Domain, Dragon Burying Court, and the Zhu Family of Southern Saber Mountain attracted most of the attention in the Cultivation World of the East Desolate, so not many people were too focused on the Long Family.

However, the Six Demon Sect, which was near the Long Family, had learned of this news.

"The whole upper echelon of the Long Family has been replaced, and the Sword Tomb didn’t even go to offer gifts?"

In the hall of the Six Emperor Hall, the Demon Emperor of the Six Demon Sect sat on the Demon Emperor Throne, frowning in contemplation.

This Demon Emperor’s presence was terrifying, but it was not demonic energy; instead, it was the oppressive and domineering aura of a strong being!

Reddish glows flickered around him, obscuring his physique and face.

His voice, too, was remarkably neutral.

On either side of the Six Emperor Hall, an Elder after another who ingested Sun and Moon Essence and absorbed the Qiankun Law remained silent, each exuding a horrifying aura.

In the center of the hall, a stern-faced young man in a golden robe knelt on one knee and respectfully said, "A spy has reported to us that a major accident occurred within the Long Family, which has caused all the higher-ups to be implicated, leading to the hasty replacement of the upper echelon."

"A major accident..." the Demon Emperor muttered softly, and then unhurriedly said, "How do you elders view this matter?"

"For the Long Family, which is hidden deep within the Divine Dragon Azure Sea, there are very few forces capable of reaching into its core, and to cause them to replace all their higher-ups is impossible, even for the East Desolate Ten Dominators,"

One grizzled and burly man with a disheveled beard sat half-in the Void with one knee raised, his right hand resting on his knee, and said lazily, "At such a critical moment, it’s hard not to think about that young man."

The Elders heard this and fell even more silent.

They all knew who that young man was—Ye Xuan!

In reality, they never imagined that they would antagonize such a formidable individual.

The Six Demon Sect knew very little about this person from start to finish.

It was only because of the conflicts between Golden Peng Saint Heir and Mu Yiyang with Ye Xuan that the Six Demon Sect became his enemy.

In their view, this was very improper.

As for the death of the Golden Peng Saint Heir...

He was dead, so be it.

Among the Demon Race, there was little regard for so-called kinship bonds.

It was the true embodiment of survival of the fittest among the Demon Race.

In their eyes, if the Golden Peng Saint Heir was killed, it was due to his own weakness.

The subsequent actions of the Six Demon Sect were purely because the Golden Peng Saint Heir had tarnished the sect’s reputation; they needed to retrieve that face, or else what would the Six Demon Sect count for among the East Desolate Ten Dominators?

However, after Ye Xuan demonstrated extreme terrifying strength, the Six Demon Sect was among the quickest in the Five Dominators of East Desolation and the six major powers of the Divine Dragon Azure Sea to back off.

After all, their enmity with Ye Xuan wasn’t that deep—why continue to provoke him?

The one thing they were more worried about was the connection between Ye Xuan and that mysterious figure who brandished the saber.

They feared that if the one who eradicated the Blood Killing Sect was related to Ye Xuan, then surely Ye Xuan would come to settle accounts with the Six Demon Sect.

They had to make ready to respond.

That was also the reason they were all gathered here.

"If this is indeed Ye Xuan’s doing, how do you think the Six Demon Sect should conduct itself?" the Demon Emperor asked once more.

"What else can we do? If he wants to kill, we let him kill. After all, if that fellow is with the saber wielder, we’re no match for him," said the shaggy-bearded giant with a shrug, an air of indifference in his voice.

But these words sparked controversy in the Six Emperor Hall—some speechless at his remark, others openly rebuked him.

"Xiong Tun, you’re the Great Elder of our Six Demon Sect, how can you speak without any propriety?"

"What do you mean ’we let him kill’? The Six Demon Sect has stood in East Desolate upon the Six Emperor Mountain Range for millions of years. If we give up fighting before the enemy even arrives, what is the purpose of our existence?"

"You’re utterly trampling on the legacy of our ancestors!"

Several Elders were red-faced and thick-necked, scolding the sloppy-bearded giant.

The burly, bearded man named Xiong Tun just dug in his ear and said, unrushed, "If you can’t beat them, why wait for death? Run away? I’m too lazy to run. As the saying goes, you can run from the monk, but not from the temple, if you’re meant to die, you’ll die."

These words only made the already silent elders even more silent, leaving them speechless and sighing.

Although what Elder Xiong Tun said sounded unpleasant, it was a fact.

With an entity that could annihilate the Blood Killing Sect within three days, what did they have to hold it back with?

To know, the Blood Killing Sect had existed for no less time than the Six Demon Sect.

Such a powerful organization, that even they could not find the headquarters of, was easily swept away in merely three days.

How were they supposed to fight that?

Involuntarily, their mood grew even more oppressive.

Yet those elders who were shouting the loudest were now shouting even louder.

"Xiong Tun, your ascent to Great Elder of our Six Demon Sect is simply the greatest misfortune for our Sect!"

One of the elders, his hair white with age and dressed in a blue robe, pointed at Xiong Tun and scolded him.

"Oh?" Xiong Tun looked at the elder with a smile that was not quite a smile and said slowly, "It seems that the Second Elder has been quite unhappy with me taking the position of the Great Elder. Now is a good time to air your grievances, isn’t it? Does it make you feel better now?"

This elder in the blue robe was indeed the Second Elder of the Six Demon Sect.

In the Six Demon Sect, aside from the most powerful Demon Emperor lineage, it was the Second Elder’s faction that was the largest.

However, he had been defeated by Xiong Tun in the struggle for the position of Great Elder.

Because of this, he had been holding a grudge for many years!

Now Xiong Tun’s indifferent attitude, resembling a pig unbothered by scalding water, gave him the chance to speak his mind.

Upon hearing Xiong Tun’s words, the Second Elder snorted coldly and turned to the Demon Emperor, bowing and saying, "Your Majesty, Xiong Tun has always been indolent. I’ve said long ago that he’s unsuitable for the position of Great Elder, and now it has been proven true. I request that Your Majesty issues a decree to strip Xiong Tun of his position as Great Elder."

Boom!

As soon as the Second Elder finished speaking, an earth-shattering aura suddenly erupted within the Six Emperor Hall.

Many faces in the hall turned pale.

Some showed irritation, while others remained calm, as if they had seen it all before.

The Second Elder felt the incomparable pressure first and foremost; he looked at Xiong Tun, trembling, and said in disbelief, "You... your strength has increased again!?"

Xiong Tun looked at the Second Elder impassively and replied slowly, "It seems you’ve forgotten that, although our Six Demon Sect is also considered a Sect Sacred Land, many of our laws are based on the laws of the Demon Race. I didn’t attain the position of Great Elder because it was given to me by any of you, but because I have the strength."

"Until you have the strength to defeat me, don’t bother me with your whining."

"Although I don’t like to use force, that doesn’t mean I lack strength."

"Understand, ’Second’ Elder?"

With that said, Xiong Tun withdrew the terrifying aura and resumed his lazy demeanor.

Leaving the Second Elder looking utterly disheartened.

The other elders were equally astonished.

This Xiong Tun, usually so indolent, turned out to have far surpassed them in strength.

"Enough, this is the Six Emperor Hall, not a place for your squabbles. I called you here today to discuss how to deal with Ye Xuan."

At this point, the Demon Emperor finally spoke up.

Ssss————

Before the words had even ended, suddenly, a slash came down, instantly breaking through the Six Demon Sect’s Sect Protection Array.

Immediately after, four figures descended from the sky.

The Six Demon Sect was in shock.

"What a lively scene. What are you all discussing?" Ye Xuan, with Zhou Youwei, Huang Yue, and Qiao Xinyu, entered the Six Emperor Hall directly and said with a cheeky grin.

Inside the Six Emperor Hall, there was a deafening silence.
