Unrivaled Martial Emperor-Chapter 1031 - On the Verge of Clashing
Chapter 1031 - On the Verge of Clashing
Beishan Ling’s irises shrank violently, and he spat out three words, “Zhang Daoling!”
Below, Jian Qi roared, “Teacher, it’s Teacher!”
Relief washed over Chen Fan—it was Zhang Daoling who had intervened.
This teacher he had never met had acted at the crucial moment, preventing his cultivation from being crippled.
As the pressure on him dissipated, a refined scholar in green robes, eyes bright and full of spirit, appeared before him.
He was none other than the Peerless Peak’s peak master—Zhang Daoling.
As soon as he appeared, everyone fell silent.
Zhang Daoling glanced at Chen Fan with approval. “Chen Fan, you’ve proven yourself to be a good disciple of mine. You’ve done well and haven’t brought shame to my Peerless Peak. I feel very gratified.”
“Greetings to Master.”
Chen Fan knew that things were stable and his crisis was resolved once Zhang Daoling appeared.
With Zhang Daoling here, Chen Fan knew the crisis had passed. There was no way Beishan Ling could touch him now.
“No need for formalities. You’ve brought honor to Peerless Peak—that’s how it should be. My Peerless Peak stands are unrivaled in the world. Each of you must possess an unshakable heart, forging ahead without fear. As long as you don't pierce through the sky, I’ll hold it up for you.”
Zhang Daoling, the reclusive king, spoke cheerfully, seemingly provoking Beishan Ling.
His voice, thunderous and firm, echoed across the battlefield.
“Teacher.”
“Master.”
Jian Qi, Di Chen, and the others flew over and paid their respects to Zhang Daoling.
Zhang Daoling nodded at them before turning his gaze toward Huang Wuji and Zhuge Qingfeng, who had just arrived.
“Master.”
“Greetings to Supreme Daoling.” Zhuge Qingfeng cupped his fists.
In the Tianwu Continent, Void Immortals were also known as Supreme Beings.
Zhang Daoling chuckled, “No need to be polite, Sovereign. Fifth is your daughter, Eighth is your godson, and they are both my disciples. That makes our bond closer than ever.”
He looked at Beishan Ling and said, “Beishan Ling, it’s been centuries, yet you still wield your status to bully the juniors. Frankly, it’s shameful. Speaking of which, my disciple held back in this battle. Otherwise, your precious son of yours would be a corpse by now.”
“Hmph!” Beishan Ling snorted coldly and said, “Zhang Daoling, you’re just protecting your own.”
“Hoho, Beishan Ling, I’m helping you save face.” Zhang Daoling smiled faintly and said, “A Void Immortal Supreme striking at a Manifestation-realm junior? If I were you, I wouldn’t have the face to stay here.”
Beishan Ling’s expression turned ugly, and he said coldly, “So sharp-tongued after all these years. The challenge is one thing, but disrupting a wedding is another. That’s a capital offense. I spared his life for your sake. That’s not bullying.”
“Hahahaha, Beishan Ling, you’re quite the talker yourself. By your logic, your sect scheming against the Holy Spirit Ancient Nation means scheming against my disciple. I’d be willing to settle for crippling Lei Dongtian and the others’ cultivation on your account. If you agree, I’ll let you do as you please with Chen Fan.”
Lei Dongtian and the others’ faces paled below.
Beishan Ling’s expression also became incomparably fierce all of a sudden.
If he really agreed to it, his reputation in the Sun Moon Divine Sect would crumble. Who would still follow him?
Even though Lei Dongtian was the mastermind behind scheming against the Holy Spirit Ancient Nation, Beishan Ling had tacitly allowed it. Everyone knew that.
Beishan Ling’s expression became somewhat ugly. He gazed down at Ji Huang and said, “Brother Ji, what do you say?”
Ji Huang stood up from his seat, and with a step, he arrived at Beishan Ling’s side. He gazed at Zhang Daoling and said, “Zhang Daoling, even if Brother Beishan lets this go, shouldn’t you answer to my Ji Clan?”
Zhang Daoling smiled and said, “Ji Huang, are you getting senile? The outcome of this battle is clear. That trash Beishan Hong isn’t even fit to lift my disciple’s shoes. Or do you think Chen Fan is inferior to him?”
Beishan Ling’s face turned grim; one could almost squeeze tears from it.
Why did Beishan Hong turn into trash in Zhang Daoling’s mouth?
Yet, he couldn’t refute it. After all, Zhang Daoling was comparing Beishan Hong to Chen Fan. Beishan Hong was indeed trash in front of Chen Fan.
“Hoho, that’s not the point. Your disciple ruined our marriage alliance. So, you have to offer me an explanation. As Brother Beishan said, on your account, we will spare Chen Fan, but he will not escape punishment. Waste his cultivation as a warning to others,” Ji Huang said indifferently.
“Hoho, handing Chen Fan over is out of the question. Besides, with me here, no one will bully my disciple,” Zhang Daoling said indifferently.
“So you refuse to give me an explanation,” Ji Huang said with a slightly cold voice.
In an instant, countless people’s hearts trembled violently.
What started as a duel between Chen Fan and Beishan Hong was now escalating into a standoff between Void Immortals.
Beishan Ling hadn’t even lifted his hand to send Zhuge Qingfeng flying; just his aura had been enough. The sheer power of a Void Immortal Supreme was terrifying.
If these Void Immortals truly clashed, the devastation would be unimaginable.
“I’ve already explained. You won’t get to lay a finger on him!” Zhang Daoling said with overwhelming dominance, his voice causing the crowd’s scalps to turn numb.
Would Zhang Daoling resist two Void Immortals alone?
If a fight broke out, Ji Huang and Beishan Ling would undoubtedly join forces against him.
“Hoho, in that case, I’ll have to see how much you have improved over the centuries.” Ji Huang sneered coldly. Immediately, a terrifying emperor’s might erupted from him, sweeping through the sky.
Simultaneously, Beishan Ling also unleashed a terrifying aura, pressing toward Zhang Daoling.
The crowd felt suffocated—was a battle between Void Immortals inevitable?
Yet, under their combined pressure, Zhang Daoling did not show any changes. His expression was as calm as ever.
“Hoho, is that so? Since that is the case, let’s fight.”
Just as the crowd braced for a fierce battle, a distant roar of wind echoed, making their expressions stiffen.
Next, they saw a figure in the distance, strolling over.
This person had an extraordinary temperament and was dressed in long, white robes, untainted by even a speck of dust, showing the demeanor of a transcendent being.
Seeing him, Zhang Daoling, Ji Huang, and Beishan Ling’s expressions changed in unison.
