Chapter 2021 – The Thalassic Peak Grand Supreme
Self-isolated, behind the times, blindly arrogant, and wholly lacking in initiative.
Such was Lu Yun’s assessment of this world.
While he faced seventeen grand supremes, he was completely unbothered. These grand supremes would be cannon fodder in the chief worlds. Although he wasn’t a grand supreme himself yet, there was no need to fear them.
He blasted outward with energy and raised an overbearing wave of air that blew into a gale. Caught off guard, the seventeen grand supremes were sent flying in a disheveled jumble.
“How come you guys have the balls to chase after me?” he snorted with laughter. “Seventeen of you are far from enough, one hundred and seventy might possibly do the trick!”
“He’s not that strong—just the equivalent of an ordinary grand supreme. Why can he erupt with so much power?!” The seventeen grand supremes were aghast with dismay.
They were incredibly powerful and some of the mightiest of their cultivation level. All of them were relatively close to peak grand supreme, but they were being forced back by a mere high supreme??
Inhabitants of the lake sagged with relief upon receiving salvation in the face of certain death. Wisps of resentment also rose from their hearts—not aimed at Lu Yun, but the seventeen grand supremes.
These seventeen heavyweights wanted to slaughter hundreds of millions of beings in the lake for the sake of an outsider? If it wasn’t for said outsider revealing himself and breaking the formation, everything that called the lake home would already be dead!
There had long been legends of demons from the outside world, stories that all outsiders were irredeemably evil. The corrupted beings came with the intent of destroying all life each time they descended, paving the way for demons to gruesomely slaughter untold innocents.
But now? Their dead today had suffered at the hands of their own people.
Our own people?
These grand supremes held themselves lofty and superior from the rest of life! They killed hundreds of millions at the blink of an eye. These weren’t their own people! Instead, it was the outsider, the so-called demon, that seemed unwilling to drag them into his affairs. Look at how he’d voluntarily shown himself to avoid further troubling them!
“Cease and desist, vile demon spawn!” shouted Green Robes. “How dare you try to beguile others with your evil arts?!
“Wake up!”
His sonorous voice rang in the crowd’s ears and pulled them out of a certain mental state.
Lu Yun was indeed surreptitiously deploying a method, but it was just a catalyst. He didn’t overly affect the people’s mental state—he just guided them in a certain direction and down a certain path of thought.
That was the most horrifying of what he’d done. Green Robes’ shout broke Lu Yun’s method, but not the thoughts that swirled in the denizens of the lake.
“C’mere, come hit me. I’ll die if you do.” Lu Yun crooked his finger at the speaker.
Green Robes’ expression shifted, but he didn’t dare approach the outsider. The intruder had broken their formation with one blow and sent all of them flying. Did Green Robes want to go to his death?
He didn’t have the courage to do so. Only peak grand supremes could take the field now, and there was indeed one nearby—the master of this territory, the Thalassic Peak Grand Supreme.
The lake was named the Thalassic Lake because it was where the peak grand supreme had grown into her strength. She’d given leeway to the group of grand supremes to conduct their affairs with convenience, not to have them destroy an essential part of her territory!
The Thalassic Peak Grand Supreme was renowned for being an inordinately ferocious peak grand supreme. Although she wasn’t at liberty to directly express her displeasure given that this matter involved an outsider, it didn’t prohibit her from watching the proceedings.
Most of the other grand supremes gathered on the scene were under her banner. They knew the importance of Thalassic Lake, so they didn’t dare help the seventeen grand supremes. In fact, they avoided the group like they would the plague.
The seventeen finally detected that the current atmosphere wasn’t what they wanted.
“Fellow daoists, will you idly sit by and watch a demon from the outside world swagger around and harm our people?!” roared Golden Robes.
“I don’t see any demon outsider here harming our people,” sneered the peak grand supreme’s disciple. “It’s actually your formation that killed countless innocents in the lake. And isn’t the hunt of demons from the outside world the business of your Cardinal Sacred Palace? What does it have to do with the rest of us?”
The high supreme’s name was Cang Sun. He was the youngest of the Thalassic Peak Grand Supreme’s disciples and the most talented. Dearly beloved by the peak grand supreme, he was assigned to protect Thalassic Lake.
Although the peak grand supreme’s base of operations had long since moved elsewhere, this was still her childhood home. No one dared approach the area apart from its inhabitants.
Lu Yun had made his way here only due to the Boundless Step death art. Its special status was why he felt this locale’s qi was more abundant than elsewhere, and that the ripples of the great dao were greater.
“Die!” Gold Robes glowered when he heard Cang Sun and he brought his palm down on the young man’s head.
While Gold Robes was no match for Lu Yun, he could easily kill a mere high supreme of his world.
Hummm.
A ripple snaked into being and flicked his hand away. A woman with black hair, black eyes, and dressed in a black silk dress glided barefoot out of the void.
“Master!” Cang S?n fell to his knees when he saw the woman.
“The Thalassic Peak Grand Supreme!”
“Mm.” The woman nodded, then looked at Gold Robes’ group. “Well well, the Cardinal Sacred Palace grows more tyrannical by the day. I allow you to move about with complete convenience, but you seek to dig up my roots?”
Gold Robes didn’t respond; the peak grand supreme’s blow had inflicted significant damage. Combined with Lu Yun’s earlier two blows, it meant he could barely maintain his hover in the sky.
“In response to the peak grand supreme, the matter of a demon from the outside world is of paramount importance. This one is skilled at shapeshifting and only the eye of great dao can see through it. We had no other choice.
“We now respectfully request the peak grand supreme to kill the vile spawn of evil!” Green Robes raised a righteous cupped fist salute to the peak grand supreme.
“And if I say no?” smiled the Thalassic Peak Grand Supreme while those around them smirked with schadenfreude.
The expressions of Golden Robes and the others shifted drastically.
“This is the imperial domain of the Eastern Sacred Palace, not your Cardinal Sacred Palace. Giving you permission to move freely through my territory is already showing you enough face. Yet you saw to destroy my foundations, so how can I possibly forgive you?”
The imperial domain was the core of a sacred palace—the domain of the most royal.
The Thalassic Peak Grand Supreme raised her hand and gently pushed it outward, raising waves tens of thousands meters tall that crashed down on the seventeen grand supremes.
Aghast with horror, they could only stare at approaching death. There was nothing they could do against a peak grand supreme!
However, sword light flashed through the void before disaster struck and cut down the peak grand supreme’s waves.
