Chapter 148 The Name of Kong Fang
Chapter 148 The Name of Kong Fang
After Elder Qing Fan left, only Gu Han, Kong Fang and the six members of the Zhao family who were lying on the ground without any resistance were left in the hall.
Gu Han no longer deceived Zhao Qing, so Zhao Qing slowly came back to his senses. Thinking back to what he had just said, Zhao Qing's face suddenly turned ashen.
"The Zhao family is finished." Zhao Qing's eyes were dull and he spoke mechanically, "The Zhao family would actually be destroyed by a little cultivator who has entered the spiritual realm. Ha, ha, ha." Zhao Qing smiled sadly and bright red blood flowed out of his mouth again.
"Zhao Kuang, you are the eternal sinner of my Zhao family. You are the one who destroyed my entire Zhao family. You are not worthy to be the patriarch of my Zhao family." Zhao Qing suddenly roared in grief and anger, his eyes torn, blood flowing, and his face became more hideous and terrifying.
"Shut up." Gu Han snorted coldly and waved his right hand. Zhao Qing could no longer make any sound. He could only stare at the dome of the hall with grief and anger.
There is no sympathy for such people. Winners win and losers are the same. In a world of weak power, people need to intrigue, but in this world where strength is supreme, everything is decided by fists.
In the eyes of the Zhao family, Kong Fang, who had just entered the spiritual realm, was too weak, so they didn't care about Kong Fang's life and would take him if they wanted. But Kong Fang was not a small person who could be manipulated by others, so it was normal for the Zhao family to be destroyed because of Kong Fang.
Let alone the small Zhao family, the Jinyang Sect, which has been passed down for tens of thousands of years, made a wrong step and was destroyed. Kong Fang's master, Cang Ye, who was in the Butterfly Transformation Realm, was a peerless great man, but he died and now only a remnant soul remains. In this world, life span has no meaning after reaching the Spiritual Transformation Realm. It is already considered immortal. But how many people can survive forever?
A few minutes later, an elder landed outside the hall and walked in.
After paying his respects to Gu Han, the elder stood respectfully aside and said nothing more, but he looked at Zhao Qing and the others with a look of extreme disgust.
The Qi Sect rules over an area of tens of thousands of miles around. As an elder of the Qi Sect, he is naturally superior to those of other sects. Now that someone dares to come and provoke the Qi Sect, it would be strange if this elder would have a good face.
However, this elder would occasionally use his peripheral vision to observe Kong Fang standing by. All the elders knew about the matter between Kong Fang and the Zhao family, and thought that the matter was over, but they did not expect that the Zhao family would not give up and even sent people to hunt down Kong Fang.
Now, the entire Zhao family will have to pay the price for their actions. The elder was gloating over the misfortune of the family. Why did he provoke Kong Fang, who even the clan leader had to give some face to, when he could have provoked anyone else?
Elders kept landing outside the hall, some came alone, and some came in groups of three or five.
After entering the hall and paying respects to the sect leader, all the elders stood aside with their heads bowed.
I don't know whether Elder Qing Fan did it intentionally or unintentionally. He actually informed Elder Yuan Ao, Zhao Zhuo's master, at the last minute.
Elder Qingfan and Yuan Ao didn't have much friendship. After all, one was the elder in charge of the inner hall affairs, and the other was the elder in seclusion. They didn't have much interaction. But as fellow disciples, the two knew each other. If it was something else, Elder Qingfan would definitely reveal some information to Yuan Ao, but this time it involved Kong Fang, and the sect master was even more angry. Elder Qingfan could only sigh in his heart, "The Zhao family is looking for death, why do you have to sacrifice yourself."
Elder Qing Fan and Yuan Ao came to Qiandu Peak together and landed in front of the main hall.
The two were the last to arrive. After they entered the hall and paid respects to Gu Han, most of the powerful people above the Spiritual Transformation Realm in the Qi Sect had already arrived. As for the dozen elders who had not come, it was because they were guarding the Jinyang Sect. Of course, the current Jinyang Sect has long been renamed the "Zhenshou Hall", which is the only inner hall located outside the Qi Sect.
Yuan Ao had a full beard. When he entered the hall and saw Kong Fang and Zhao Qing and others lying on the ground, Yuan Ao's heart skipped a beat and he suddenly had a bad feeling.
Dozens of other Spiritual Transformation Elders kept looking at Zhao Qing and the others on the ground, their faces turning cold. They had already heard something from Elder Qing Fan, so they naturally understood what had happened.
Seeing that everyone was present, Gu Han, with a chilling look in his eyes, suddenly looked at Yuan Ao standing at the back of the crowd and shouted coldly, "Yuan Ao, do you admit your guilt?"
Yuan Ao trembled and walked out of the crowd quickly.
After taking a look at Kong Fang, who was full of grief and indignation, and then at Zhao Qing and others lying on the ground, Yuan Ao said sadly, "I know my crime. Before the fall of Jinyang Sect, the Sect Master said that no one should target Kong Fang because of what he did in the past. But Zhao Zhuo was my disciple, and I couldn't swallow his anger when he died at the hands of Kong Fang, so I told the Zhao family that Kong Fang killed Zhao Zhuo, and I also deliberately disclosed Kong Fang's whereabouts. I have violated the Sect Master's words, and I am guilty of a great crime. Sect Master, punish me."
After saying that, Yuan Ao closed his eyes, looking as if he accepted the punishment.
"He pretended to obey but actually disobeyed the orders of the sect leader. Wu Qu, how should Yuan Ao be punished for such a thing?" Gu Han asked the elders of the Law Enforcement Hall in the crowd.
Wu Qu walked out of the crowd, his face very solemn, and said: "Kill." Wu Qu said this word with great difficulty, "But Sect Master..."
Wu Qu was about to plead for Yuan Ao when he was interrupted by Gu Han. Although Yuan Ao had his reasons, he had disobeyed the orders of the clan leader Gu Han after all. This matter could be a big deal or a small one, but it mainly depended on who was pleading for mercy. It would be useless for anyone other than Kong Fang to plead for mercy, after all, Kong Fang was the victim.
"I remember that more than 7,000 years ago, you entered the Weapon Sect and became an entry-level disciple. You have grown all the way to the present and finally have the cultivation level of the Spirit Transformation Realm. Considering the contributions you have made to the sect over the years, the death penalty will be spared. I will destroy all your cultivation and you can enjoy your old age in the sect from now on." Gu Han walked towards Yuan Ao step by step.
Upon hearing Gu Han's words, the faces of the other elders changed drastically. For people like them who possessed powerful strength, it would be better to die than to have no cultivation.
Kong Fang was speechless. If Gu Han really wanted to destroy Yuan Ao's cultivation, he would not have walked over step by step. With Gu Han's cultivation, he could cross such a short distance in the blink of an eye. It was obvious that Gu Han was waiting for him to beg for mercy.
However, the loss of a powerful Spiritual Transformation Realm cultivator was indeed a big deal for the Weapon Sect. Gu Han did not want to lose any more Spiritual Transformation Realm cultivators unless it was absolutely necessary. After all, they had already lost several in the battle with the Jinyang Sect. If another one was disabled, the Weapon Sect would have even fewer Spiritual Transformation Realm elders.
But if Kong Fang didn't beg for mercy, Gu Han had to abolish Yuan Ao. This was not only to maintain Gu Han's own dignity, but also to give an explanation to the person behind Kong Fang. Although Qi Zong now occupied a large area of Jinyang Zong, it would not be easy for Qi Zong to rule this area well without the support of Qianlong Lake.
Of course, if the Qi Sect can rule these two sects for thousands of years, then the Qi Sect will truly rise.
"Master, Elder Yuan Ao did that because he couldn't accept the loss of his beloved disciple. This was definitely not his original intention. I hope you can forgive Elder Yuan Ao this time." Kong Fang pleaded coldly.
With so many elders watching, Kong Fang had no choice but to beg for mercy. Although even if Kong Fang really didn't beg for mercy, the elders couldn't do anything to him, but they couldn't help but feel dissatisfied with him. After all, they belonged to the same sect, and seeing Yuan Ao being abolished, the other elders couldn't help but feel sympathetic. Moreover, it would be a shame if an elder was forced to death by a disciple.
In order to eradicate the scourge of the Zhao family, he would need the help of these elders. Moreover, Kong Fang would have to continue to stay in the Qi Sect in the future, so it would be better not to offend these elders if possible.
As soon as Kong Fang opened his mouth, Gu Han breathed a sigh of relief, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart. It was unclear whether it was a blessing or a curse for the sect to have such a disciple with a strong background. Fortunately, it seemed that there were more blessings at the moment.
Gu Han stopped, turned to look at Kong Fang, and asked, "You really don't care?"
Facing Gu Han's burning gaze, what else could Kong Fang say? He forced a smile and nodded, "After all, nothing happened to me. Sect Master, please let Elder Yuan Ao go this time. After all, all this is because the Zhao family has gone too far."
Although he promised to let Yuan Ao go, Kong Fang was unwilling to let go of the scourge of the Zhao family.
A cold smile suddenly appeared on Gu Han's face. "The Zhao family is bullying their superiors. Even if you don't tell me, I will never let them go." Gu Han wanted to use the Zhao family to establish his authority. What's more, he could also give an explanation to Kong Fang's master. Why not do it?
"Yuan Ao, even though Kong Fang pleaded for you and no longer cares about the mistakes you made, it will be hard to convince the people if you are not punished. This time, you will take the lead in exterminating the Zhao family. If you fail to satisfy me, I will still not let you off easily." Gu Han said majestically.
"Disciple obeys the order." Yuan Ao responded respectfully.
"Okay, pick another twenty elders, and bring all the disciples in the sect who have reached the Spiritual Ascension Stage. How can they grow without seeing blood? We should let them know the cruelty of this world." Gu Han said and waved his hand, "Go and do your work."
Many of the direct disciples of Shengling Realm came from other vassal sects. Gu Han asked Yuan Ao to bring all the disciples of Shengling Realm, obviously to let these people pass the news back to their own sect. Gu Han planned to use the Zhao family to establish his authority, so naturally he had to let other sects know.
Afterwards, Kong Fang and the others bowed and left Qiandu Peak.
A day later, a huge uproar swept across the surrounding area of tens of thousands of miles. All the sects, regardless of size, were frightened by the storm. The Zhao family was actually wiped out by the Qi Sect, and no one escaped alive.
However, a rumor related to this turmoil made these sects, big and small, even more shocked. The Zhao family was destroyed just because they hunted down a young cultivator who had entered the spiritual realm.
A medium-sized force and a small cultivator who had just entered the Spiritual Realm. These two could not be compared together in any way. However, this medium-sized force was destroyed because of this disciple who had just entered the Spiritual Realm and was usually considered to be so weak and pitiful in their eyes.
For a moment, some quick-reacting sect leaders immediately ordered the clansmen who were practicing in the Weapon Sect to inquire about Kong Fang's news, and rumors about Kong Fang were flying everywhere again.
