My name is Huang Tian, ​​what the hell is this "Heaven is dead" nonsense?

Chapter 111 He's too arrogant! Too presumptuous! (4k)

The heavy sound of kowtowing echoed in the library, but Huang Tian's hands never stopped turning the pages, as if he were unaware.

Seeing that Huang Tian did not react, Zhao Changming remained still, still kneeling.

Time passed slowly, with only the rustling sound of pages turning continuously ringing out.

Tick ​​~

Beads of sweat seeped from Zhao Changming's body, dripping onto the ground and splashing up tiny water droplets. He felt aches and pains in his back and legs, his upper body was trembling from kneeling, but he had a fierce determination in his heart, so he gritted his teeth and kept going without a sound.

His second elder brother, Zhao Changguang, did not enter the library; instead, he watched his younger brother from outside, sighing inwardly.
'How could someone like him casually accept disciples? Besides, others usually accept disciples when they are older, wanting to pass on their knowledge, or to build up their reputation and make money. But Commander Huang is only sixteen or seventeen years old, and he doesn't lack the resources for cultivation. Why would he want to accept disciples?'

He didn't approve of his younger brother's idea of ​​becoming an apprentice, but now that things had come to this, he had no choice but to let him do it.

Shaking his head, he turned and sat on the stone steps outside the Sutra Repository, his hands supporting him on the ground as he leaned back slightly, gazing at the drifting clouds and the clear sky, a strange sense of tranquility rising within him.

The reason it was so strange was that he was sitting peacefully in a major sect with a history of seven hundred years, and this sect had just been destroyed!

All was quiet except for a gentle breeze blowing from the back mountain, bringing a touch of coolness. Zhao Changguang felt drowsy.

Tread~

A series of hurried footsteps startled Zhao Changguang awake. He looked up and saw hundreds of men armed with swords, knives, and crossbows rushing towards him.

'Could they have taken advantage of the chaos to infiltrate the sect and loot?!' He was startled.

When the news of the destruction of the Fei Hong Sect spread, many martial arts practitioners would inevitably come to search for the sect's scattered treasures. He had already anticipated this, but he did not expect it to happen so quickly.

He disregarded the tranquility of the library, rushed inside, and said to Huang Tian, ​​who was still "flipping" through the books, "Commander Huang, a group of wandering martial artists are on their way here."

As they spoke, the footsteps grew closer, and even Zhao Changming, who was in so much pain that he was almost losing consciousness, could hear them clearly. He subconsciously turned around and saw a burly man, about eight feet tall, carrying a long sword, walking in.

Then, he bowed with utmost respect.

"Tie Chong, Deputy Commander of Zhenwu Guard, greets Commander! Commander, you are truly awe-inspiring!!"

Huang Tian stopped flipping through the book, turned around and looked at the extremely respectful Tie Chong, but he was not surprised at all.

He had long known that the authorities had been keeping an eye on the five major sects. There must be a lot of Zhenwuwei and Liushanmen personnel in the small town outside Feihongmen's base. Not only that, but some people had also infiltrated Feihongmen and become disciples or even stewards!
Therefore, it's not surprising that Tie Chong and the others arrived so quickly.

"Your surname is Tie, and you look similar to Tie Qi. Is there any connection between you?"

"I am Tie Qi's younger brother."

Huang Tian chuckled, realizing it was a fellow disciple of an acquaintance, and said, "Since you're here, take care of the affairs of Fei Hong Sect, especially the things in the sect's treasury. Take them all back to the county city, send some to Qinghui Garden, and some to the government office. Also, if you need anything, you can take some from it."

Huang Tian collected all the most valuable treasures in Fei Hong Sect. He didn't need the rest, but it wouldn't hurt to keep some in his mansion. As for the portion sent to the government office, it was to thank Yu Jingcheng and others for their previous training of him, such as giving him the Crimson Bright Bow, the Spirit Jade Mushroom, and so on.

"Thank you very much, Commander!" Tie Chong was overjoyed.

"Okay, back off."

Huang Tian waved his hand, then calmly said to Zhao Changming, who was kneeling on the ground trembling and drenched in sweat, "I have no intention of taking on disciples. If you are sincere in your pursuit of martial arts, you can go to the county town and seek an opportunity to join the Zhenwu Guard Academy. If you can stand out from the crowd, that will be a testament to your ability."

He barely has enough time for his own cultivation, so how could he have the mind to take on disciples or teach them? Even if he were to take on disciples, it would be something he would consider after reaching the peak of this realm.

Zhao Changming's eyes darkened, but he was already prepared and knew that Huang Tian's decision was unchangeable. So he kowtowed again and tried to get up, but his legs almost gave way and he fell. Zhao Changguang, who was standing next to him, quickly helped him up.

Tie Chong silently observed the two, especially Zhao Changming. He felt that apart from having some perseverance and being able to endure pain, the young man had nothing special about him. If it were him, he would not have taken him as a disciple.

I didn't have any disdainful thoughts, but I felt that the boy was too naive, thinking that he could become Huang Tian's disciple just by kowtowing a few times.

This is a legendary figure who, with only a fifth-rank rank, defeated and killed Pei Guan, the grandmaster of the Demonic Sect, and then went alone to Fei Hong Gate to kill its Grand Elder, Sect Leader, and other elders!

If one could become a disciple simply by kowtowing, then the line of people kowtowing would stretch from the county town all the way to Feihong Gate!

"Come with me, and don't disturb the commander." Tie Chong waved his hand, his expression indifferent.

The Zhao brothers helped each other out of the Sutra Repository.

Standing outside the pavilion, Zhao Changming glanced back and saw that Huang Tian was still immersed in his books.

With a sigh, he limped away with his brother's help. Tie Chong then beckoned to a dozen subordinates armed with knives and swords and ordered, "You guard the gate and do not let any unauthorized persons in or out, so as not to disturb the commander's reading."

"Understood!" everyone said in unison.

"Ah."

Tie Chong nodded, then summoned another person and asked, "Has the urgent message been sent?"

The man replied, "I've sent three letters to the county seat. It won't be long before the Vice Commissioner and Commander Bai receive the news from here."

"it is good!"

Tie Chong clapped his hands, then walked towards the bluestone square, where more than a hundred Zhenwu Guards were dealing with the corpses on the square and setting up a guard post.

With a cough, Tie Chong relayed Huang Tian's instructions on transporting the treasures from the treasury. When they heard that they could each take a few items, the strongmen cheered.

They never expected that they would receive such a generous reward for simply collecting corpses and cleaning up the battlefield. Huang Tian didn't care much for the things in the treasure vault, but for them, who were low-rank martial artists, they were definitely treasures!
Of course, they didn't dare to take too much, and they wouldn't take anything expensive. Everyone knew how much to take based on their strength and level.

"Now that you've received the reward, get the job done!"

Tie Chong said, "Don't let those wandering martial artists rush into this place and take advantage of the chaos to loot, disturbing the commander's enjoyment. Do you understand?!"

"Understood!!" The crowd was in high spirits and beaming with smiles.

After instructing them to prepare for defense, Tie Chong turned and gazed in the direction of the Sutra Repository, pondering silently:

"The destruction of the Feihong Sect, a sect with a history of seven hundred years, by a single person with a thousand households will surely cause a sensation throughout Kunyun and even Qinzhou. I wonder what the four major sects, including Guiyuan Sect, will do after the news spreads?"

According to the information they gathered, the Flying Flying Sect had once invited the Thousand-Faced Old Ghost to enter the city to assassinate Huang Tian, ​​and the other four major sects had also contributed to the effort.

Now that the culprit, the Flying Flying Gate, has been destroyed, the remaining four sects must be terrified. What will they choose?

The four major sects' grandmasters joined forces for a desperate fight to kill Huang Tian.

Or should they move out of Kunyun and Qinzhou with their disciples?
……

……

Fluttering~
A majestic eagle landed in the Zhenwu Guard's office. A strongman removed the letter from its talons, noticing a red seal on the envelope indicating a high rank. He quickly delivered it to the Zhenfu Envoy's office. "Zhenfu Envoy, an urgent message has arrived!"

Shirahara Fusa was handling official business when he heard this and immediately stood up. He knew that the urgent message sent at this time could only be related to Huang Tian!
He took the letter from the strongman, unfolded it, and read it quickly.

Bang! !

He slammed his hand on the table, making the brush, paper, and inkstone on it bounce, which startled the strongman.

"Hahaha! Good! Good! That's great!!"

Holding the letter, he couldn't help but burst into a hearty laugh, which echoed far and wide, even reaching the officials in other offices, who were all astonished.

Clutching the letter, Shirahara paced back and forth in the warm pavilion, as if nothing else could express his excitement.

"By the way, has the Vice Commissioner read the letter?" Shirahara asked.

The strongman replied, "Not yet."

According to custom, such urgent letters with red seals were usually first presented to the garrison commander, and were generally not sent directly to Yu Jingcheng, unless the latter specifically mentioned it.

"Shall I send it over now?" the strongman asked.

"No need, I'll take it to the Vice Commissioner myself."

Bai Yuanfu waved his hand and laughed, about to quickly deliver the letter to Yu Jingcheng, but the latter's voice came first.

"Gen-suke, what makes you so happy? I could hear your laughter from far away."

A shadow was cast in, and looking up, he saw Yu Jingcheng, dressed in a green robe and wearing a jade crown, walking in.

Bai Yuanfu held up the letter in his hand and smiled, "It's a letter from the Fei Hong Sect!"

Yu Jingcheng's eyes lit up. Although he had guessed something when he heard Bai Yuanfu's loud laughter, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to resist coming here. Now he was finally at ease.

"Seeing how happy you are, it must be good news! Let me see it quickly!"

He stepped forward, took the letter, glanced at it, and blurted out "Good!"

"Haha, as expected of Huang Tian, ​​killing him is as easy as slaughtering a chicken!" Yu Jingcheng laughed. "Back then, that old bastard Ke Rujing made things difficult for my Zhenwu Guard. He probably never expected this day to come. He died and his clan was wiped out. How laughable and lamentable."

Bai Yuanfu also sighed, "Grandmaster-level experts, who dominate a region, are so powerful and influential. I never expected that after Huang Tian came to kill them, they would abandon their disciples and flee alone. Even so, they couldn't escape..."

Yu Jingcheng clicked his tongue twice, "There's no need to overestimate grandmasters. No matter how strong a grandmaster is, they are still human. On the contrary, because they live longer, they are more afraid of death."

A third-rank expert can live for three Jiazi (60 years), which is decades or even hundreds of years longer than an ordinary person. They haven't even had a chance to enjoy all the wealth, glory, delicious food, and beautiful women yet, so how could they possibly bear to die?

Bai Yuanfu said thoughtfully, "Ke Rujing is unwilling to die, but what about the grandmasters of the other four sects? Would they be willing to die?"

……

……

Inside a brightly lit hall of the Guiyuan Sect, one of the five major sects of Kunyun County.

Wu Dingwen, the current leader of the sect, looked at the urgent letter in his hand, his right hand trembling violently.

This would never have happened before. How could a dignified fourth-grade martial artist's hands tremble unless he was nearing the end of his life and could no longer control his blood and true energy?

But Wu Dingwen is only sixty-eight years old, in the prime of his life with abundant strength and true energy. He is far from the end of his life. However, at this moment, not only is his right hand trembling, but his vision is also going black.

He blinked several times before his vision finally cleared, but when he saw the contents of the urgent letter again, he wished he were blind!
He slumped helplessly into his chair, muttering in his sleep, "He... he actually wiped out the Flying Sparrow Sect..."

The five major sects had actually anticipated Huang Tian's revenge. There is no such thing as being allowed to hit others but not being allowed to hit back.

However, the revenge they imagined was that Huang Tian would secretly kill a few elders, deacons, and inner disciples of the five major sects to vent his anger, or secretly collect evidence of the five major sects' crimes and then lead the imperial army to besiege the sects.

No one expected that after killing Pei Guan, the master of the Demonic Sect, Huang Tian would immediately go and attack Fei Hong Men alone!

Too fierce!
That's outrageous!
Too arrogant!
Unbridled and fearless!

What's even more terrifying is that he succeeded!
The Supreme Elder Ke Rujing of the Flying Hong Sect was killed, and the Sect Leader Qian Shan and other elders died in battle. The stewards and disciples scattered in all directions, and there was not a single disciple or servant left in the entire Flying Hong Sect's territory.

If it weren't for the two elders still on mission in Funing County, the core fighting force of the Feihong Sect would have been completely wiped out.

But once the news of Ke Rujing's death spreads, the two elders will likely flee Qin Prefecture and go to another prefecture to live in anonymity. At that time, the Flying Hong Sect will be completely destroyed.

Taking a deep breath, Wu Dingwen walked out of the main hall with the letter and came to an extremely simple courtyard. He pushed open the door in a daze and saw an old man with white beard and white eyebrows.

He knelt down and said, "Dingwen pays respects to his great-uncle!"

The old man was none other than Wu Xuefeng, the Supreme Elder of the Guiyuan Sect, the only Grandmaster, and the great-uncle of the sect leader Wu Dingwen.

"Get up. You seem distracted. Has something important happened?" Wu Xuefeng opened his eyes, his expression calm as a still well, as if all major events were insignificant to him.

Wu Dingwen hesitated for a moment, then took out a letter from his sleeve and presented it to him, saying, "You will understand once you read it."

Wu Xuefeng took the letter and unfolded it. The next second, Bai Mei suddenly jumped, his eyes revealing an extremely solemn expression. He solemnly asked, "Is the news true?"

“It’s true,” Wu Dingwen said with difficulty.

Wu Xuefeng fell into deep thought.

Wu Dingwen remained kneeling on the ground, not daring to move. He knew his great-uncle's personality all too well; anyone who disturbed him while he was thinking would surely be severely scolded and punished.

After a long while, Wu Xuefeng's strange gaze fell on Wu Dingwen. "Dingwen, you didn't inform me beforehand about the matter of joining forces with Feihongmen to hire Qianxiang Laogui to assassinate Huang Tian, ​​did you?"

Wu Dingwen's heart skipped a beat. "No."

Indeed, no. Although Huang Tian already had a reputation as a genius, it wouldn't have been necessary to specifically alarm the Supreme Elder to kill him. After all, the Flying Hong Sect was the main force in killing Huang Tian, ​​and their Guiyuan Sect was merely providing some supplies to show that the five major sects were working together. The sect leader could make the decision on this matter himself.

If every matter alarms the Grandmaster, wouldn't it make him, the sect leader, seem incompetent?

Just like Fei Hong Men, Ke Rujing only heard Huang Tian's name for the first time after the Thousand-Faced Old Ghost's assassination attempt failed and he was forced to leave seclusion. That's why he harbored deep resentment towards Qian Shan. "Your mistake actually dragged me down with you to my death?!"
"Hmm, we didn't inform them beforehand..."

Wu Xuefeng slowly nodded, his eyes conveying a profound meaning.

Wu Dingwen seemed to understand something, his face turned deathly pale, and his heart turned to ashes!
