Seeing Wang Sheng's defiance, Master Yuan Deng sighed and said,
"This monk has done his best. Since you will not heed my advice, then I am powerless."
"Today, the six major sects have gathered here, and we must eradicate the demonic path. Sect Leader Wang, please be prepared."
Abbess Miejue of the Emei Sect was a hot-tempered woman. She had no patience for further talk with Wang Sheng and immediately shouted,
"Master Yuan Deng, stop wasting your breath and attack directly!"
"Leaving this demonic sect is a disaster. Talking to them further is useless!"
"Today we will hunt them down to the last one. This will be good for everyone!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Sheng burst into laughter and said, "Abbess Miejue, don't think our Guangming Sect is easy to bully!"
"Our Guangming Sect is united as one. If you want to hunt us down to the last one, I think you are indulging in wishful thinking!"
After speaking, he continued to shout loudly:
"Burn my mortal body, blaze, sacred fire."
"What joy in life, what suffering in death?"
"To do good and eliminate evil, for the sake of light alone!"
As his shouts echoed, the other disciples on the altar also sat in meditation and shouted loudly.
This was the doctrine of the Guangming Sect and the faith of its people.
The synchronized shouts now reverberated on the altar, carrying a sense of noble sacrifice.
Abbess Miejue snorted, "A demonic sect is still a demonic sect, pretending to be heroes! Today, I, Abbess Miejue, will act on behalf of heaven and kill you here!"
With that, Abbess Miejue stomped her foot, drew her sword, and thrust it directly at Wang Sheng's forehead!
Wang Sheng managed to block the attack, and then began to fight with Abbess Miejue.
With Wang Sheng's martial arts, in a one-on-one fight, Abbess Miejue was not his match.
However, due to the excessive consumption of internal energy while resisting the strong enemy earlier, and coupled with his injuries, he was no longer Abbess Miejue's opponent.
After a few exchanges, Wang Sheng was defeated and forced back.
Abbess Miejue seized the opportunity and shouted, "Demon, accept your fate!"
Before her voice faded, Abbess Miejue thrust her sword forward!
"Dad!"
"Abbess!"
Seeing this scene, both Wang Yan and the sect leaders' faces changed drastically!
One must understand that this was a society governed by law, not the chaotic martial world of the past.
In the past, one could kill in the name of eradicating demons, but now, killing someone would incur legal responsibility!
However, Abbess Miejue paid no heed to such matters.
Her sword intent was sharp and filled with killing intent, clearly aiming to take a life!
And in Wang Sheng's current state, he was utterly unable to evade it!
But at this very moment, a strong wind suddenly swept across the entire altar!
Then, Abbess Miejue's expression changed drastically, and she was repelled!
She looked at Wang Sheng in shock, wondering how he still had the strength to resist.
But with a glance, she saw a young man standing in front of Wang Sheng!
It was Wu Tian!
At this critical juncture, Wu Tian finally made his move, saving Wang Sheng's life!
Everyone was caught off guard by the sudden appearance of this young man.
Abbess Miejue shouted at Wu Tian, "Who are you? Are you also from the demonic sect!"
Wu Tian smiled and said, "Abbess Miejue, I am not from the Guangming Sect. The reason I intervened is merely to prevent you from making a grave mistake."
"After all, if you kill someone, you might be executed."
Wu Tian's faint smile reached everyone's ears.
The gazes of everyone became even more astonished.
Who was this person? Why was he still so calm in such a grand scene?
And as everyone's hearts were in turmoil, Wang Yan also hurried over.
As the Saintess of the Guangming Sect, she was quite capable herself, and quickly reached Wang Sheng's side.
"Dad," Wang Yan looked at Wang Sheng nervously, "How are you? Are you alright?"
Wang Sheng had no mind to attend to his injuries.
He stared blankly at Wu Tian and said, "Daughter, didn't you go to Wang Quan Sect?"
"Could it be that this... is the person you invited from Wang Quan Sect?"
Wang Yan shook her head and said, "No, Dad. Wang Quan Sect can no longer come. This person is Wu Tian, and he is here to help us."
"Wu Tian?" Hearing Wang Yan's words, Wang Sheng was puzzled, feeling as if he had heard this name somewhere before.
He finally remembered and said in shock, "Wu Tian?! Could this be the man Miss Su mentioned..."
Wang Yan nodded and said, "That's right, it's him."
"He's actually the man Miss Su mentioned!"
Wang Sheng's mind went blank. He stared blankly and said, "Why did you call him over? Didn't I ask you to get someone from Wang Quan Sect?"
Wang Yan said, "I met Wu Tian at Wang Quan Sect. Wu Tian... defeated everyone at Wang Quan Sect. Now no one from Wang Quan Sect can come, so Wu Tian came."
Wang Sheng could hardly believe his ears.
He paused, incredulously saying, "You're saying he alone defeated the entire Wang Quan Sect? How is that possible!"
Wang Yan said, "That's how it is. Since Wu Tian is willing to help us, let's trust Wu Tian."
Wang Sheng was silent for a moment, then said earnestly to Wu Tian, "Brother Wu, then I will entrust this matter to you."
"If you can help us overcome this crisis, then the trial will be considered passed."
Hearing this, Wu Tian couldn't help but smile.
This Wang Sheng was quite calculating, wasn't he? Wasn't this equivalent to adjusting the trial content on the spot?
However, he could understand this. After all, it was a time of great crisis for the Guangming Sect, and the Guangming Sect could only rely on him.
He didn't turn back, but smiled and said, "It's nothing. The Five Sects and Six Teachings should help each other."
"As the Sect Leader of the Bashan Sect, this is what I should do."
"What did you say? The Sect Leader of Bashan Sect?" Wang Sheng was completely stunned.
But Wu Tian didn't reply further, his gaze fell upon the six major sects.
He said with a smile, "Today, I am here. May I ask for your face, how about it?"
Hearing Wu Tian's words, the people from the six major sects were also stunned. Then, Abbess Miejue said with a gloomy face,
"You are not from the demonic sect, then what exactly do you want?"
"I advise you to leave here and not meddle in other people's business, otherwise, I will deal with you as well!"
Wu Tian sighed and said, "I don't understand why you always call it a demonic sect?"
"What era is this? If they were truly a demonic sect, what business would you have with them? Wouldn't the country have eradicated them long ago?"
"So if you ask me, this is completely unnecessary. So why don't we just forget about it?"
