HPDBC Chapter 206 Seeking Peace
Chapter 206 Seeking Peace
Above the vault of heaven.
A group of over a hundred Sword Cultivators were escorting ten massive Flying Boats, riding the winds and breaking the waves through the sea of clouds.
Meanwhile, the Sword Cultivators flying around the periphery of the Flying Boats, looking down at a city they just passed, were buzzing with discussion.
"Good grief, aren't we attacking?"
"Was the city we just passed over serious? They didn't even activate their defensive formations; do they really think we're here for sightseeing?"
"Hall Master, what's going on?"
Some were indeed puzzled.
This Xuanming Sect...
Why does it seem like they have given up on treatment?
"What's the situation?"
Lou Yuyu understood something and scoffed, "They're scared, that's why. They don't dare to fight."
Clearly, the Xuanming Sect had received news of the recent battle between the Nine Cauldrons Sect and the Great Sun Sword Sect.
"Hall Master, I perceive several ongoing, atrocious incidents targeted at descendants of the Artifact Sect in the city below," said a Primordial Spirit Cultivator suddenly.
"Then what are we waiting for!? Why show mercy to those who have lost their humanity!? Kill!"
Lou Yuyu didn't hesitate to command, "Primordial Spirit guide us! I'll personally lead a small team down!"
"Yes!"
The commanded Primordial Spirit Cultivator quickly marked the locations of the ongoing atrocious incidents.
Straight away, Lou Yuyu and another dozen Great Sword Cultivators rushed out heading directly for the scenes of the incidents.
...
In a shop that had been smashed to ruins, several dozen ferocious Xuanming Sect Body Cultivators were dragging a family of eight from their basement hideout.
The supposed head of the family, a Body Cultivator himself, tried to resist but was critically harmed on the spot, having his limbs broken, and watched helplessly as his elderly parents, wife, daughter, and son were brutally dragged out.
His aged parents were quickly doused in gasoline.
A man wielding a source of fire rushed forward, his face twisted with ferocity, "Ours! These things are all ours! You dare to come to our land to make your money! You all deserve to die!"
"Stop... stop..."
The man with broken limbs struggled, but he was ruthlessly pinned underfoot by another powerful Body Cultivator.
"Kill them all, take back what's ours!"
Another high-rank Body Cultivator was giving ordered commands.
"No!"
Seeing the Xuanming Sect man nearing the beaten, blood-soaked elderly couple who couldn't move, the middle-aged man shouted out in despair.
The next moment...
Sword light tore through the sky!
A Sword Qi struck incredibly fast, piercing through the head of the Xuanming Sect man, instantly turning his head into a mist of blood.
This scene made the vicious and crazed members of Xuanming Sect momentarily stiffen.
Following that, a figure appeared in the sky, his gaze landing directly on the struggling middle-aged man, "A man of Nine Cauldrons Sect?"
The middle-aged man didn't consider himself a person of Nine Cauldrons, but in that moment, facing the question, he frantically nodded, "I am, I am, I am a person of Nine Cauldrons Sect..."
"Good."
The Sword Control man nodded slightly.
"Danger?"
The staff member smiled and said, "You mean if the Xuanming Sect might attack us, right? Don't worry, they wouldn't dare. If they dare to come, the seniors from Qingfeng Courtyard and Divine Might Academy will make sure none of them leave."
"This... "
"You think we can park a flying boat here for nothing? It's because not long ago, we achieved a major victory in the Eastern Sea, first eliminating more than three hundred of Xuanming Sect's elite main battle Great Cultivators, and then striking hard at the disruptors from the Great Sun Sword Sect, even destroying one of their Patrol Heaven Warships! Xuanming Sect now... where do they get the courage to resist?"
The staff member proudly said.
"Eliminated over three hundred elite Great Cultivators of Xuanming Sect and destroyed a Patrol Heaven Warship of the Great Sun Sword Sect?"
Hearing the staff member's words, the middle-aged man felt almost surreal.
Every sect tends to boast about their own strength while belittling their rivals.
Xuanming Sect was no exception.
Not only did they promote themselves as being on par with large forces like the Great Sun Sword Sect and the Primordial Yang Sect, but they also depicted the Nine Cauldrons Sect with labels of being backward, weak, and decrepit, as if Xuanming Sect only needed to exert a little effort to crumble the Nine Cauldrons Sect.
Thus, hearing the staff member's words gave the middle-aged man the impression of time and space being overturned.
Could the Nine Cauldrons Sect really be that powerful?
In a moment, his doubts had been shattered by the harsh reality.
The Nine Cauldrons Sect's large flying boat had arrived at the heartland of Xuanming Sect, and Xuanming Sect couldn't muster any semblance of resistance. Was there still any question about their strength?
With this realization, the middle-aged man took a deep breath, envisioning the wonderful life he could have when he returned to the Nine Cauldrons Sect.
...
Elsewhere, upon arriving at the flying boat, Lou Yuyu instructed the Primordial Spirit Cultivator from his own Battle Courtyard, "Connect to the Void Divine Realm at Xuanming Sect's heartland, issue a notice! Any Xuanming Sect person who dares to persecute members of the Nine Cauldrons Sect through violence, execute them without mercy!"
After saying these words, he added, "Collect some visuals from what happened in this city and post them. Let them clearly see the determination of the Nine Cauldrons Sect. Make sure to filter them, both to intimidate and to not tarnish the sect's image."
"Understood!"
The Primordial Spirit Cultivator responded, soon busying himself with the task.
Before long, this message was directly sent to the range of the Void Divine Realm corresponding to the Xuanming Sect.
With the message sent, coupled with the Nine Cauldrons Sect's thunderous methods of slaughter, an uproar spread throughout the entirety of the Xuanming Sect.
Only then did the people of Xuanming Sect realize that their widespread massacre of the Artifact Sect descendants had provoked the Nine Cauldrons Sect to their doorstep!
Was there already Sword Cultivators from the Nine Cauldrons Sect's Battle Courtyard wreaking havoc within the cities of the Xuanming Sect?
Suddenly, a speechless fear quickly enveloped everyone in the Xuanming Sect.
War had come!
And it had come so swiftly!
So swiftly...
It ended before they even realized when it had begun.

Yes, it was over.
Any moderately knowledgeable person within the Xuanming Sect could guess that they must have suffered a devastating defeat, otherwise they would never have allowed Nine Cauldrons Sect's Sword Cultivators directly into their heartland!
This situation undoubtedly meant that the Xuanming Sect no longer had the power to stop the Nine Cauldrons Sect, and could only watch as they did as they pleased within their borders.
Under these circumstances, panic quickly spread throughout the Xuanming Sect.
Looting, vandalism, arson, and even slaughter gradually spiraled out of control onto others in the Xuanming Sect.
The entire Xuanming Sect felt like it was plunging into complete chaos.
Shortly after these messages were sent, Ma Hong, the Hall Master of the Campaign Hall, came alone to confront the large squadron of flying boats led by Lou Yuyu, bringing with him Xuanming Sect's hopes for reconciliation and a return to good terms with the Nine Cauldrons Sect.
