RETURN OF THE RULER

98. The Red Jade sect

"Who are you... ?" One of the gate guards immediately shouted and brandished his weapon towards Yang Xuan and signaled the other gate guards to surround him.

Yang Xuan did not answer their questions, He directly walked over and kicked one of them, instead, made one of the gatekeepers fly off the wall while spewing a mouthful of blood from his mouth and instantly die on the spot.

"I hate the most someone who points a weapon at me" stared intently like an eagle after its prey, then walked towards the gate and kicked it straight away. A loud explosion occurred as the slash was smashed into pieces.

The other slash guards instantly froze after seeing the ferocity by their guests as the spiritual aura pressed down on their bodies.

"Have your patriarch come out, don't forget to make me the best tea, otherwise. Your fate will be the same as your brother's" while pointing at the body lying beside the wall of the sect. After which Yang Xuan stepped out casually leaving them.

Just a few steps Yang Xuan passed through the gate suddenly a humming sound rang out by him, dozens of sword energies and one black spear missed towards him. He reflexively jumped into the air to dodge it, causing sword energy to hit the walls of the sect. A loud explosion occurred as the wall turned to dust.

The black spear continued to slip up into the air wherever Yang Xuan dodged, making him clench his hands and instantly greet the black spear. The black spear was instantly smashed into pieces accompanied by a loud explosion in the air, making the killing array of the sect instantly disappear.

Those who had just come out from within the sect instantly jumped in shock, seeing their sect killing array disappear just like that.

"Young man, welcome to the red jade sect" the patriarch of the sect stepped towards Yang Xuan with trembling legs. He deliberately uttered pleasantries to eliminate the fear of his heart.

"After attacking me you pretended to welcome me. Damn it, where's your manners?" while giving off a spiritual aura made the patriarch of the sect freeze.

"Mom... Not so young master....

" Crash... Unfinished the patriarch of the red jade sect spoke, his head had already split in two in an instant, making him die standing up.

Yang Xuan again circulated his gaze as if wanting to tear them apart one by one, even his eyes never blinked.

"You asked for it" while laughing coldly. He did not expect to be surrounded by dozens of elders from both sects, brandishing their respective weapons. Yang Xuan frowned after seeing the nearly fifty high-level elders surrounding him.

"Young people... Are you the envoy of His Majesty King Hong Chun?" A elder with a white beard asked casually. Even he looked calm and unperturbed even though the patriarch of the sect had been killed.

The elder asked not without reason, he had already measured Yang Xuan's strength. But he felt nothing. He knew, someone capable of killing higher cultivators of his cultivation, must be that person manipulating his cultivation with certain techniques.

The elder sent a telepathic voice to his group so as not to rashly take steps, but some of them did not heed his warning especially after Yang Xuan killed their patriarch.

"I am no messenger of anyone. Do you want to negotiate with me? Too bad it was too late" while throwing diamond axes at some elders made them die in vain in an instant. Yang Xuan controlled his axe which continued to miss various directions as he wished and his eyeballs also continued to swirl following his opponent's formation technique.

They circled around Yang Xuan without any gaps, there were some low-level elders ready to take the place for who was injured among his group. Their formation reminded Yang Xuan of the demon snake poison sect, only that this time it was not in the air.

"I am Xie Lan, the patriarch of the fire machete sect and the elder is the great elder of this sect" he replied proudly.

"What a coincidence. I've been looking for you for a long time, if you tell me where Nan Shang is, I'll consider your sect" staring intently and grinning.

Xie Lan's face instantly turned ugly, she immediately stared towards the grand elder of the red jade sect with an expression like asking for help. He also deeply regretted introducing himself, as if his name backfired for him. Likewise with one of the elders beside him, even the elder's feet were already trembling. Even the two old men seemed to be looking for a gap to escape.

"Do you want to run away? You better consider it. Otherwise, these two sects would be ruins like the mountain tiger group and the red pearl sect" while gazing towards the grand elder and the other elders.

"Yang Xuan's words instantly swirled swiftly on their heads, one by one dropping his weapons after the Great Elder of the red jade sect nodded his head.

They all fell to their knees and begged for forgiveness.

"I will spare you all but Xie Lan and Nan Shang. Great elders and all, reflect on your mistakes. Isn't Hong Chun a good King? What is your reason for rebelling? Give a reasonable answer."

"We only side with young lord Hong Zhun's prince, Is our choice wrong....?" Replied the grand elder respectfully, seeing Yang Xuan's appearance and he instantly changed his calling.

"Do you pretend you don't know? Don't give me silly answers. Hong Zhun was no longer a prince due to his misdeeds. Now that the prince was Shing Xeng the second son of His Majesty King Hong Chun, that was why Hong Zhun wanted to rebel."

"Is what I say right or wrong?

Yang Xuan waited for them to speak. However, after a long wait no one spoke, they nudged each other to give an answer. Seeing that Yang Xuan became furious.

"Marine...!" yang Xuan shouted thunderously.

"True young master, but we did not know that he (Hong Zhun) was no longer a prince. However, we will not dare to reprimand him" the grand elder replied with a bow.

"Tu.... Young master. I beg ...stop "with a heavy voice and stutter the grand elder of the red jade sect is trying to stop Yang Xuan.

Yang Xuan instantly stopped her actions and walked towards Xie Lan. He directly swung his axe making Xie Lan instantly die standing up.

"Why look at me like that? you guys are curious.The Xie family in the Jiang empire have already annihilated me for allying with the demons" while staring intently at all of them.

Hearing Yang Xuan's explanation they finally knew the origins of the patriarch of the fire machete sect.

"Don't you ever think about the great mistake made by Hong Zhun, do you think the water kingdom is silent after losing their crown princess? if they find out that Hong Zhun Yang caught him. Are you able to withstand the onslaught from them? Given the internal state of this kingdom and the state of your King. They're silent doesn't mean they're afraid of this kingdom, if they have proof this kingdom is gone." Yang Xuan said a little explaining about his knowledge.

They could all just remain silent without anyone answering, as it was only a while ago that they were discussing about Yang Xuan's remark.

"Actually death is too easy for your patriarch, given the greed they have. Even if I hand them over to the palace then there will be many of you who are on the death row" Yang Xuan continued to explain the impact of Hong Zhun's actions and the royal losses if the matter continued,

After giving a detailed explanation and having the two sects change the old rules to their respective sects, changing the Vision and Mission of the two sects. Yang Xuan told them to stand up. He stared at Nan Shang.

"Nan Shang's... Do you know what your mistake was?

Nan Shang did not reply, he continued to duck with a trembling body.

" Do you know what your mistake was? Yang Xuan shouted back with a flushed face restraining anger.

Even those who watched shuddered in horror with Yang Xuan's fury and did not dare to move from his place. Even just to breathe alone was difficult for them, the heartbeat of hunting down out of fear.

"The answer...."

"Maha...." Yang Xuan laughed loudly until the sect trembled again.

"Your daughter is still with me, and never even touched her. Do you want me to harass her in front of you" Yang Xuan asked with a grin.

"rvrn...."

Nan Shang immediately knelt down, he did not even know what his mistake was so the young man in front of him was eager to kill him, even he was already trying to remember it. After thinking hard enough he finally took a breath and ventured to speak.

"Master... My life is yours, but I beg you to let go of my daughter, because she is innocent. I also don't know what my fault is to you that you are so angry" Nan Shang replied in tears as he hugged Yang Xuan's leg.

"Are you sure...?" Kicking Nan Shang from the front of him made Nan Shang flung out and spewed out a mouthful of fresh blood from his mouth.

"Tu... Signore... Please kill me, but I beg you to let go of my daughter" while crawling towards Yang Xuan.

"alright... " While taking out the girl in intent from the continent sealing ring.

"Do you still remember me" said Yang Xuan as he raised the girl's chin with his axe.

"The girl was instantly frightened after seeing Yang Xuan, even her body was a little thin but her face was still smooth and there were no abrasions in the slightest.

"Dad, help me" cried the girl crying in fear as she looked at her battered father.

"Now you are free. However, not with your father, now go .. Say your last words, I'll wait" while releasing the girl. Yang Xuan let the girl talk to her father before being executed by him.

After which Yang Xuan entered the red jade sect and surrounded it. Taking all middle to high level resources as compensation to be handed over to the palace. As well as taking the entire storage ring of a low-level to high-level elder, and not forgetting to take the red jade artevak as the protector of the sect. making the sect higher-ups return to spit out a mouthful of fresh blood from their respective mouths. After being content to rob the sect Yang Xuan returned to the sect grounds.

"Have satisfied his stale bases" asked as he chased away the girl.

"Already sir" replied Nan Shang resignedly.

"Yang Xuan directly threw Nan Shang into the continent's Sealing Ring, and squeezed his hand to remove the seal he had installed earlier. After that he took Xie Lan's body and missed into the air towards the fire machete sect to deliver Xie Lan's body and ask for compensation for the crimes they had committed so far. Elder daughter Nan Shang could only cry seeing her father as Yang Xuan's captive.

They all heaved a sigh of relief after Yang Xuan left their sect, shock after surprise they witnessed with their own eyes, making them know the vastness of this world, let alone after seeing Yang Xuan, although it was only a glance but they could already guess that Yang Xuan was still young. Guests who visit them are only seconds away but carry such deep wounds.

"The young man's visit taught us all a lesson if we want to grow old like me. Otherwise, many genius cultivators died young" said the grand elder of the red jade sect while telling his disciples to repair all the damage.
