“Halt! Everybody step back from the ditch!”
Down on the northern grand plaza of Supreme Sword Mountain, Supreme Sword Sect Master Jian Jue. At Rank 5 Peak,—accompanied by Jade Lotus Sect Master Lian Hua , at Rank 5 Peak. Thunder-Clap Sect Master Lei Zhen , at Rank 5 Peak,—rushed to the edge of the pig-slop ditch with a look of righteous indignation painted across his pale face.
Pointing his longsword down at the mud-caked, whimpering Rank 0 Crippled Mortal Chu Tian, Sect Master Jian Jue shouted toward the crowd. Subtly channeling a lethal thread of sword-qi toward Chu Tian’s throat to silence him forever:.
“People of the Nine Continents! We three Sect Masters were completely deceived by this demonic impostor Chu Tian! Since he is a disciple of our Supreme Sword Sect who betrayed our Senior Elders.
According to ancient sect law, we shall drag him back into our locked Enforcement Dungeon immediately and execute him in private—!”
“Execute him in private? Or silence your business partner before he tells the world who pocketed seventy percent of the stolen dowries?!”
BOOM!
Before Sect Master Jian Jue’s sword tip could come within ten feet of the ditch, seventy-eight-year-aged Senior Elder Jian Cang , holding Rank 5 High. The ninety-nine rescued Rank 5 Teaching Elders dropped out of the sky like a wall of iron, landing squarely between the three Sect Masters and the pig-slop ditch!
