Martial Master

The Ancient Sword Sect was once an extraordinarily grand sect in the Martial Domain, considered one of the top forces. However, a century ago, for reasons unknown, the sect master of the Ancient Sword Sect suddenly became enraged and challenged the Law Enforcement Hall, claiming their actions were arrogant and that they treated the Martial Domain as their private territory, suggesting that all major forces cancel the Law Enforcement Hall or reclaim its jurisdiction.

At that time, the Piao Miao Palace was at its peak, and the various forces opted to avoid trouble, naturally refusing the proposal. Yet, it was this statement that brought calamity upon the Ancient Sword Sect.

The Piao Miao Palace mobilized the Law Enforcement Hall, ordering the Ancient Sword Sect to act together and demanding the sect surrender its heirloom treasures to join in exterminating an extremely vicious Demon Sect on the continent. Naturally, the Ancient Sword Sect refused and defied the orders of the Law Enforcement Hall.

Seizing the opportunity, the Piao Miao Palace retaliated, accusing the Ancient Sword Sect of despicable actions, colluding with the Demon Sect, and plotting against the continent. They then mobilized numerous strong practitioners from the Law Enforcement Hall to forcibly invade the Ancient Sword Sect's stronghold, demanding the sect disarm and accept investigation.

How could the Ancient Sword Sect agree? The sect master led nearly ten thousand disciples in resistance but suffered a bloodbath at the hands of the Piao Miao Palace. In just three days, the mountain gate of the Ancient Sword Sect was breached, with not a single disciple surviving. Additionally, the mountain gate, which had been the sect's inheritance for over six thousand years, was destroyed by the Piao Miao Palace, turning it into ruins. The entire mountain gate was drenched in blood, resembling a purgatory, a sight too horrific to behold.

A prestigious sect that had inherited its legacy from ancient times was thus destroyed, sending shockwaves throughout the Martial Domain, leaving no one unstartled. That battle established the Piao Miao Palace's reputation as the number one force on the continent.

However, unexpectedly, at this moment, Hua Ling Martial God took out a Soul Capturing Bell, a demonic artifact. The charges that the Piao Miao Palace had laid against the Ancient Sword Sect were collusion with the Demon Sect and the ritual crafting of demonic artifacts, which violated the heavenly principles of the continent. Who would have thought that the Piao Miao Palace would test the Law themselves and end up crafting such a demonic artifact? It was utterly infuriating for both gods and men.

After the death of the Ancient Sword Sect's master and nearly ten thousand disciples, even their souls could not find peace, being refined by the Soul Capturing Bell, eternally suffering endless torment. How cruel this was!

Ouyang Wuliang clenched his fists tightly and said coldly, “Hua Ling Martial God, you of the Piao Miao Palace once vowed that the Ancient Sword Sect colluded with the Demon Sect to refine demonic artifacts. Yet now, you Piao Miao Palace publicly refine a demonic artifact like the Soul Capturing Bell. Don't you feel shameless?”

Hua Ling Martial God sneered coldly and said, “What is there to be ashamed of? As the ruler of the continent, it is our purpose to maintain its tranquility. The Ancient Sword Sect colluded with the Demon Sect and refined demonic artifacts; they naturally deserve to be eradicated. As for us in the Piao Miao Palace, although we refined this Soul Capturing Bell, the purpose is merely to punish those who break the law for the sake of the righteous path of the continent. What is shameless about that?”

Upon hearing this, everyone trembled with anger.

Others did not collude with the Demon Sect, yet you falsely accuse them of doing so and refining demonic artifacts, while your Piao Miao Palace itself refines demonic artifacts and shamelessly claims to act on behalf of the heavens. How shameless must one be to utter such words?
