Chapter 667: Four Cloud Range Immortals

Chapter 667: Four Cloud Range Immortals

“The repair method provided by the Nangong Clan wasn’t complete. Even when I repaired Heaven Crystal, it still retains the evil aura it had when it was broken. It will damage both its enemies and its wielder. Those who have it will definitely not end up in a good condition. If you want it, take it.”

The Sword Sect Master said nothing.

He had thought that Bei Xiao would want to have Heaven Crystal for his own once he saw how powerful it was. He did not expect that Bei Xiao would just throw Heaven Crystal over once he was finished repairing it.

The dazzling Heaven Crystal brought with it invisible sword qi that let out piercing whines. Under countless people’s burning gazes, it left Bei Xiao’s hands and twirled in the air!

Shick!

With a faint hint of regret and determination, Heaven Crystal stabbed into the floor between the Sword Sect Master and the old monster from the Nangong Clan with a whine. Three feet of the blade sank into the floor. Only a small part of it was left outside.

The Sword Sect Master and the old monster from the Nangong Clan instantly fixed their eyes on it. At the same time, disbelief appeared on their faces, as if they could not believe that the mighty northern clan would be so easy-going and would just hand over Heaven Crystal.

In the face of the duo’s astonished gazes, Bei Xiao explained himself. “A divine weapon with an evil spirit in it cannot be truly considered a matchless weapon. It’s not a supreme divine weapon in my heart. It’s a pity that the current me can only do so much.

“Both of you desire Heaven Crystal and will do everything to get it, but you must think about it carefully. Over one hundred years ago, the Nangong Clan was nearly destroyed because of Heaven Crystal. Even if you possess it now, you will still be slightly inferior to your ancestors in the past when they had it, but the current Heaven Crystal is even more difficult to wield. Senior Nangong, please be careful.”

The two Dharma protectors of the mighty northern clan nodded at the same time.

Silence fell in the area.

The old monster from the Nangong Clan creased his eyebrows in hesitation.

If Bei Xiao had any thoughts about possessing Heaven Crystal, the old monster from the Nangong Clan would definitely not care about the advantages and disadvantages of possessing Heaven Crystal and just work on getting it, but Bei Xiao had clearly stated that he could not repair Heaven Crystal, and he had said it with certainty. With his personality and strength, there was no need for him to lie.

“Is there no way for you to get rid of the evil aura on Heaven Crystal?”

“If I wanted to get rid of the evil aura on Heaven Crystal, I’d have to soak it in the water of the sword lake in Heaven Mountain for a few years to seal the evil aura.

“It’s not certain that it’ll work, however, and even after that, when a person uses it, the evil aura will still be gradually released. It will need to be nourished with the water once in a while.”

Bei Xiao’s words made the old monster from the Nangong Clan relax.

“Heaven Crystal has always been a relic of the Nangong Clan. I will definitely take it.” His words were said with great resolution. By the looks of it, he wanted to use the method Bei Xiao mentioned to possess Heaven Crystal.

Once he said those words, the Sword Sect Master instantly narrowed his eyes, and a faint cold glare lit up in them.

“Senior Nangong, it’s only natural that you want to retrieve Heaven Crystal. We handed over Heaven Crystal to you because we wanted this ancient divine weapon to see light once more, but don’t forget that we made a promise before this. As long as Sword Sect hands over Heaven Crystal and it is successfully repaired, the Nangong Clan must do something within their abilities for Sword Sect.”

“Of course.” The expression of the old monster from the Nangong Clan turned slightly gentler, and he answered without hesitation. “The Nangong Clan will definitely not go back on their promise. As long as it is something we can do and it does not violate the code of chivalry, we will do it.”

“Very good.” The Sword Sect Master smiled faintly. “Then, on the day Heaven Crystal is repaired, Sword Sect will have the right to take care of Heaven Crystal for three years!”

“What?!”

The expression of the old monster from the Nangong Clan instantly turned incredibly unpleasant. All of Sword Crafting Hall seemed to begin trembling.

“Luo, you’re toying with me!”

“Hmph!” The Sword Sect Master remained calm and just crossed his arms in front of his chest. “It’s just three years,” he said in a relaxed manner, “and it’s not something that will cause you to break the code of chivalry. Besides, it’s something that you can do with ease. Senior Nangong, you shouldn’t go back on your word.”

“What a load of bull!” The old monster from the Nangong Clan laughed coldly. “The Nangong Clan provided countless valuable materials to repair Heaven Crystal, and you want to take it away with just one sentence? There is no way we will let you take advantage of us like that!”

“If you find it hard to part with so much money, Sword Sect will not mind paying double for the materials you used. Hmph, you want to immediately get the complete Heaven Crystal with some materials? You’re indulging in wishful thinking.”

The atmosphere in Sword Crafting Hall instantly turned stiff and full of hostility.

The Sword Sect disciples and members of the Nangong Clan outside Sword Crafting Hall quickly drew their weapons at each other!

Ten Thousand Swords and Happy exchanged a glance with each other to notify that they were to continue watching and observing. They hid themselves among the mighty northern clansmen and hoped for the people from Sword Sect and the Nangong Clan to immediately start fighting.

When Ten Thousand Swords saw that the people from Sword Sect and the Nangong Clan were about to start fighting, his heart jumped into his throat from nervousness, but his face was filled with delight and anticipation. However, Happy did not find the situation to be in their favor, because the two sides were currently in Heaven Shaker Fortress, and the powerful elites of the mighty northern clan were right by their side.

The two sides were definitely worried that someone would try to take advantage of the situation, so it was unlikely for the fight to start.

While Happy was thinking about how the situation will progress, cries for murder rose everywhere within Heaven Shaker Fortress.

A crazed string of laughter suddenly rose from the other direction of Heaven Shaker Fortress.

“Hahahaha! Isn’t it lively here?! The Northern clan, Nangong Clan, and people from Sword Sect are all here. Looks like Heaven Crystal is about to be fully repaired! Very well! Bei Xiao, hand over Heaven Crystal to us Four Cloud Range Immortals, or else, we will erase Heaven Shaker Fortress from the world of martial artists today!”

Boom!

A loud bang rose, and a huge hole was suddenly opened in the wall around Sword Crafting Hall. Stones flew everywhere, and a man hidden in a suit of black armor appeared before everyone’s eyes.

The flying stones were like sharp hidden weapons. With piercing howls, they shot into the crowd. The Sword Crafting Hall disciples were the first to be struck. They were all hit, and cried out in pain as they fell to the floor while coughing up blood.

“How dare you?! Heaven Shaker Fortress isn’t a place for you to invade as you please!”

When the dozens of elders outside Sword Crafting Hall saw that there were quite a number of Sword Crafting Hall disciples who were injured, they turned around and rushed toward the intruder

But before they could even reach the mysterious man in black armor, a terrifying and sharp howl descended from the sky!

The group of people raised their heads to look. A black metallic staff came down violently on their heads with the force of a mountain.

Boom!

The black metallic staff was more than ten feet long. When it released a loud sound upon landing on the floor, the entire floor began cracking inch by inch, and an astonishing qi force exploded from under the stone slabs. The ten or so mighty northern clan elders suffered unspeakable pain from the flying stones. They coughed up blood and staggered backward.

At the same time, three more people descended from the sky.

Thud!

At the instant their feet landed on the ground, the Sword Crafting Hall disciples around them felt as if they had been struck by giants. They could not remain on their feet and fell over.

Happy was among them. He, too, sensed a great power he could not resist pushing against him. His Nine Yang Divine Skill body fortification rapidly dwindled away.

Nine Yang Divine Skill circulated on its own. While it restored his body fortification, it also helped him remain on steady feet.

“Huh?”

One of the three who descended from the sky released a barely audible gasp in the chaos, but he soon saw the young man cough up blood and fly outward.

He frowned before he looked away indifferently.

“Stop!”

A loud voice came from within Sword Crafting Hall!
