Chapter 378: Chapter 378 The Fall of the Sky-Stepping Sect
“Girl, you’ve grown so much and yet still don’t know how to be embarrassed,” said Huang Ying as she emerged from within the True Dragon Divine Sect, accompanied by Yang Chao, Xiao Jin, Luo Qing, Wu Qi, the Black Dragon King, and others.
“He’s my brother, I’m not ashamed at all,” Yang Ling’er laughed, lifting her head before letting go of Yang Xiaotian.
Yang Xiaotian smiled at Yang Chao and Huang Ying, “Father, Mother.”
“Great! It’s good that you’re back!” Huang Ying approached, and as she looked at her son whom she hadn’t seen for nearly two years, her eyes brimmed with tears of excitement.
Yang Chao laughed, “You lad, you’ve grown so tall, soon you’ll be surpassing your father.”
Indeed, Yang Xiaotian had grown quite a bit in the nearly two years since they last met.
“Young Master!” Xiao Jin, Luo Qing, Wu Qi, and the others came before Yang Xiaotian, all incredibly excited.
Yang Xiaotian nodded and smiled at everyone, then took out a big handful of lollipops.
“Lollipops!” Xiao Jin’s eyes instantly lit up.
Yang Ling’er also showed a delighted expression on her pretty face.
Seeing that his sister, who was already over 1.6 meters tall, still liked lollipops, Yang Xiaotian laughed, “Be careful or you’ll lose all your teeth and become an ugly girl.”
“I’m not scared at all,” Yang Ling’er stuck out her tongue.
After a joyful and laughter-filled reunion with his family, Yang Xiaotian immediately headed to the Sky-Stepping Sect with the Demon Ape, Iceflame Qilin, and others.
Now that Wu Peng and the others were dead, he wanted to take advantage of the momentum to uproot the Sky-Stepping Sect and the other three major sects of the Ancient Divine Palace.
If he waited too long and word got out, he feared that the experts of the four major sects would escape.
When Li Zhengqing, the Tyrant Dragon, Hu Nan the Sect Master of the True Dragon Divine Sect, and others learned that Yang Xiaotian was heading to the Sky-Stepping Sect, they all proceeded there as well.
Subsequently, Yang Xiaotian activated the Abyssal Spaceship and sped toward the Sky-Stepping Sect with everyone.
As for the hundreds of thousands of experts present, Yang Xiaotian had them all follow as well.
Although Li Hong of the Green Lotus Tavern and others were reluctant, no one dared to disobey.
Thus, under Yang Xiaotian’s leadership, hundreds of thousands of powerful individuals from all directions majestically made their way to the Sky-Stepping Sect.
At this time, the Sky-Stepping Sect was bustling and prosperous.
Deng Qinghong and Liu Ping were instructing Hu Yue and You Yi in their swordsmanship training.
After the Sky-Stepping Sect and the other three major sects had surrounded the True Dragon Divine Sect, Liu Ping took her daughter, Hu Yue, and defected completely from the True Dragon Divine Sect to join You Yi in the Sky-Stepping Sect.
As for Deng Qinghong, he had always been a spy for the Sky-Stepping Sect, and now he had returned to his original alliance.
Watching Hu Yue practice her swordsmanship, Liu Ping suddenly said, “I wonder if the True Dragon Divine Sect has been breached yet.”
Deng Qinghong glanced at Liu Ping and said coldly, “The message just came back this morning. Within three days, the Demon Sky Sword God will surely blast open the Sword Path. Don’t worry, Elder Wu Peng said that he would spare Hu Nan’s life and bring him back for you to deal with personally.”
He looked at You Yi with admiration, “You Yi, this child, is truly a Sword Dao prodigy. At such a young age, he has already condensed seven Sword Hearts. Given time, he will surely be able to form nine Sword Hearts and become an unparalleled Swordsman of the Azure God Continent throughout the ages!”
He then said, “I wonder how that Yang Xiaotian is doing with his cultivation now.”
You Yi stopped his swordsmanship training and came over to Deng Qinghong, saying, “Elder, rest assured, if I encounter Yang Xiaotian again, I will definitely defeat him personally!”
He had a great confidence in himself.
With a wave of his sword in hand, a burst of Golden Flame Sword Aura shot out, revealing his peak power of the Martial Ancestor tenfold level.
“Martial Ancestor tenfold peak!” Deng Qinghong exclaimed with delight, “Good, very good!”
For You Yi to have broken through to the Martial Ancestor tenfold peak at such a young age, his cultivation speed was undoubtedly the fastest in the history of the Sky-Stepping Sect!
Just then, a sudden thunderous rumble echoed.
The Sky-Stepping Sect shook violently as if it were the end of the world.
“What’s happening?!” Deng Qinghong, Liu Ping, and others all looked up in shock, only to see an enormous Demon Ape towering between heaven and earth.
With another swing of his iron chains that transformed into two giant rods, the Demon Ape fiercely bombarded the Sect Protection Array of the Sky-Stepping Sect.
Another massive explosion sounded.
Cracks appeared in Sky-Stepping Sect’s Sect Protection Array, spreading continuously and covering the entire formation.
Deng Qinghong and Liu Ping’s complexions drastically changed.
The Sect Protection Array of Sky-Stepping Sect, left by the founding ancestor of the sect, was one of the strongest formations in the Divine Dragon Empire and had never been breached. But now, it could not withstand two strikes from the Demon Ape!
Immediately afterward, the Demon Ape swung the colossal iron chains in its hands.
“Quick, get out of the way!” Seeing this, Deng Qinghong and Liu Ping cried out in alarm, leading Hu Yue and You Yi to swiftly dodge.
Just as they took flight, they heard the sound of Sky-Stepping Sect’s Sect Protection Array being completely shattered.
They turned in shock only to see two colossal iron chains smashing down on the Sky-Stepping Sect’s main gate after breaking through the Sect’s array.
Bang!
Countless peaks of Sky-Stepping Sect exploded into the sky.
Sand billowed everywhere.
Countless disciples of Sky-Stepping Sect were thrown into disarray.
The force of destruction swept towards every corner of Sky-Stepping Sect.
Deng Qinghong, Liu Ping, and the others were also hit by the rolling wave-like force, propelled backward and crashing into the mountains, coughing up blood incessantly.
In the midst of the million disciples of Sky-Stepping Sect screaming and fleeing in terror, a flying ship broke through the sky, with Yang Xiaotian and the Iceflame Kylin among others flying out from it.
Seeing Yang Xiaotian, Tyrant Dragon, Hu Nan, and others, Deng Qinghong and Liu Ping’s eyes bulged in disbelief.
Wasn’t the True Dragon Divine Sect about to be wiped out by the Demon Sky Sword God? How could Tyrant Dragon, Hu Nan, and the others appear in Sky-Stepping Sect!
Yang Xiaotian glanced at the chaos and the frantic escape of a million disciples of Sky-Stepping Sect, then ordered Green Lotus Tower Master Li Hong and several hundred thousand other Sect Masters to take the lead.
Li Hong, seeing Yang Xiaotian daring to order him, the venerable Tower Master of Green Lotus Tavern, to be his muscle, was furious, but ultimately didn’t dare to say anything and rushed towards the million disciples of Sky-Stepping Sect.
Suddenly, the sounds of battle shook the heavens.
Yang Xiaotian unleashed his Soul Power and quickly located Deng Qinghong, Liu Ping, and the others, then flew over with Hu Nan and the others.
Watching Yang Xiaotian and Hu Nan approach, Deng Qinghong and Liu Ping’s faces turned pale.
“You all!” Liu Ping’s lips trembled.
“You want to ask why we appear here, right?” Yang Xiaotian began, “Let me tell you, it’s no secret. Wu Peng, Tang Hong, and their seventeen companions are all dead.”
“Impossible!” Deng Qinghong, Liu Ping, Hu Yue, and You Yi cried out in unison.
Yang Xiaotian, uninterested in further talk with them, turned to Hu Nan and said, “Sect Master Hu, I’ll leave them to you to deal with.” Having said that, he took the Iceflame Kylin and others, soaring away towards Sky-Stepping Sect’s treasury.
Hu Nan, holding the True Dragon Sword, walked towards Liu Ping, Hu Yue, and the others.
Half a day later.
The Demon Ape punched out, sending roaring waves of force towards the ends of the heavens, as countless peaks and palaces of Sky-Stepping Sect were simultaneously blown away.
Under the watchful eyes of the experts from the various Sects, the main gate of Sky-Stepping Sect was leveled to the ground.
Truly flattened!
Sky-Stepping Sect, the number one Sect of the Divine Dragon Empire, was thus wiped out!
“Friend Yang, now that Sky-Stepping Sect is destroyed, can we leave?” Li Hong, having returned bloodied from battle, asked Yang Xiaotian, holding back his rage.
“Leave?” Yang Xiaotian said indifferently, “No hurry, we’ll leave after Ancient Divine Palace, Subduing Dragon Sword Sect, and the Mahavairocana Divine Sect are all wiped out. Then, I will personally escort Tower Master Li back to Green Lotus Tavern.”
Li Hong nearly coughed up blood upon hearing this.
Turns out, Yang Xiaotian expected them to continue being his enforcers, attacking Ancient Divine Palace, Subduing Dragon Sword Sect, and the Mahavairocana Divine Sect!
Having fought against Sky-Stepping Sect, half of Green Lotus Tavern’s experts had already died or been injured. If they were to wait until after attacking Ancient Divine Palace, Subduing Dragon Sword Sect, and Mahavairocana Divine Sect, almost all of Green Lotus Tavern’s experts would likely be dead.
