Blood Dragon Sect’s Wang Qin said coldly, “It has already been proven that it was indeed your junior apprentice-nephew who abducted away the disciple Shen Ying of our sect. Other disciples of our sect tried to stop him, but were instead killed by him!”
“Why your junior apprentice-nephew abducted Shen Ying is a question that only he can answer.”
“Shen Ying being fine now, it can only be said that she was fortunately discovered before it was too late. Otherwise, who knows what your junior apprentice nephew might have been intending? It was just that he didn’t have the time to do it.”
“Still, this does not change the fact that he abducted and killed!”
Yan Zhaoge looked rather amusedly at Wang Qin, “Is the truth of the matter to be completely fabricated by you?”
Wang Qin raised his voice, saying, “I know that you are powerful and outstandingly talented, already having attained the Essence Talisman stage at such a young age.”
“You have managed to refine the mortal shell of the Northern Ocean Martial Saint, Zhuang Kun, as your clone as well. However, does your great strength mean that you can harbour your junior apprentice-nephew despite his guilt?”
“You need to know that justice exists in this world. You can kill and silence me today, but can you kill everyone under the heavens, silencing all of us myriad lifeforms?”
Wang Qin looked sternly at Yan Zhaoge, “While you are powerful, you wouldn’t have the ability to do that, right?”
“You appeared out of nowhere and shocked the entire Vast Ocean World. However, if you say that rampaging throughout the entire world and dominating over all, pressuring till there is no one who dares to speak against you is your goal, you would surely be underestimating the people of this world!”
Yan Zhaoge’s expression was calm, not appearing flustered at all as he instead looked rather interestedly at Wang Qin.
The other party was clearly trying to set him, an outsider who had suddenly appeared, as being in opposition with the entire Vast Ocean World.
Yan Zhaoge said neither hurriedly nor slowly, “This Yan does not look down on everyone under the heavens. However, there are some whose worth I indeed feel I have overestimated, such as your sect.”
As those of the Blood Dragon Sect all looked hostilely at Yan Zhaoge, he continued mildly, “Don’t look at me like this. Face is given to you by others, your personality is constructed by you yourself.”
He waved his hand, indicating for Shi Jun to come over beside him before he patted his shoulder, “The truth of the matter is actually only known by these two people who were involved in the matter. Currently, their testimonies differ.”
“I naturally believe in the words of my junior apprentice-nephew,” Yan Zhaoge turned to look towards Wang Qin and the others, “Nian Wei already being dead, with him after all being the grandson of your sect’s longtime Elder Nian Chen, whether it is for his individual reputation or that of the entire sect, Shen Ying decided not to pursue the matter with him, instead distorting the truth and causing the blame to look like it lies with my junior apprentice-nephew.”
Shen Ying pressed her lips tightly together while the other Blood Dragon Sect martial practitioners all appeared enraged.
Yan Zhaoge ignored them as he continued, “However, she can only take the blame off Nian Wei at most. What would she be able to malign my junior apprentice-nephew of? It would at most be of having taken her away. Other than that, my junior apprentice-nephew did not touch her at all.”
“If I definitely have to go by what you were saying, perhaps this would explain it?”
“In not having touched a hair on the head of your disciple Shen Ying, my junior apprentice-nephew was actually bringing her along as a witness.”
“As a witness of what? As a witness of how incapable the disciples of your sect are.”
Yan Zhaoge said casually, “They being unable to beat my junior apprentice-nephew in single combat aside, they were unable to win even grouped up together, sending their lives away one by one. Your sect should reflect on yourselves and think of how to better educate your disciples. Otherwise, it would be too easy for them to die while they are outside.”
“How does this version of things sound to you?”
The people of the Blood Dragon Sect were all enraged, with even Wang Qin’s entire body trembling in rage.
Those spectators of the other sects exchanged glances, their expressions all being rather complex.
Those of Water Crystal Palace did not speak, with it being the leading Elder of the Spirit Returning Sect who chuckled, “That does indeed make logical sense as well.”
At this stage, the truth of the matter was getting even more unclear. However, none of them were foolish people as various suspicions arose in all of their hearts.
The entire matter had gradually become something like a bad debt.
They might not fully believe everything that Shi Jun had said, but even with Shen Ying testifying, the words of the Blood Dragon Sect were filled with numerous points of doubt as well.
Shi Jun’s heart now eased. While he had been unable to truly clear his name, revealing the words of the Blood Dragon Sect to be a lie and bringing justice to himself, he finally had the feeling of the clouds having drifted away with the sun now being revealed.
While he felt rather unresigned to this, with Shen Ying not having personally revealed the truth of the matter, this was probably already the best possible result.
It was such that his reputation would not be besmirched when he next walked the lands of the Vast Ocean World.
Shi Jun had just wanted to speak when Yan Zhaoge’s voice suddenly resounded by his ear, “Stay silent. This matter has only just begun.”
Nian Chen who had been silent since his appearance as he had just been glaring fixatedly at Yan Zhaoge and Shi Jun now said coldly, “Youngsters who do not know the height of the heavens and the depths of the earth can indeed die very easily.”
His voice resembled the roar of a vicious dragon as it shocked the ears of everyone present to the point of ringing.
Nian Chen directly struck out with a claw towards Shi Jun!
“This old man’s grandson has died! There is no existing for us under the same heavens. This old man will offer your heart in tribute to the dead Wei’er in heaven,” Nian Chen’s gaze was cold and savage to the extreme, “No one can stop me!”
A figure swayed, appearing between Nian Chen and the pair of Yan Zhaoge and Shi Jun. It was precisely the Northern Ocean Clone!
“As compared to fighting, verbal battles would actually have been more beneficial to you,” Yan Zhaoge said in an indifferent manner, “Those remaining fingers that are temporarily deposited on your hands-I will be coming for them now.”
“Acting against my junior apprentice-nephew-just based on you?”

HSSB540: World shocking
Everyone else moved to the sides lest they be affected by the aftershocks of this Martial Saint-level battle.
Yan Zhaoge looked at Xu Fei, secretly telling him something via sound transmission.
Xu Fei’s gaze flickered slightly as he nodded.
The Northern Ocean Clone rose into the air with his arms upraised, resembling a roc soaring into the air as the Northern Ocean Divine Spear was integrated within his fist arts.
Punching outwards, it resembled a huge spear penetrating through the heavens and the earth as it assaulted towards Nian Chen.
Nian Chen’s true martial avatar appeared above his head once more, the figure of a dragonoid condensing as it clawed downwards with its nine-fingered claw.
The Sacred Artifact, the Nine Dragon Fingers, flickered with radiance on the claw of the Blood Dragon Avatar. However, with only eight fingers remaining to the glove, its power had inevitably weakened somewhat.
The Nine Dragon Fingers were a unique Sacred Artifact. While the nine fingers could still maintain a connection when separated
from one another, if one of them was missing, their power would then deteriorate from its peak state.
Yan Zhaoge said mildly, “You already couldn’t do anything with nine fingers, much less eight now?”
Nian Chen chuckled, exhaling and unleashing noise as all the acupoints of his entire body shook together.
Numerous blood dragons surged into the air from his acupoints, emitting deafening roars.
As Nian Chen’s throat moved, the numerous blood dragons above his body all did the same as well, their throats heaving together.
The throats of all these blood dragons swelled as though lumps had appeared within.
The next moment, the hundreds and thousands of blood dragons roared together, numerous blood orbs shooting out from their mouths before exploding in mid-air!
Secret technique of the Blood Dragon Sect, Blood Dragon Disgorges Orb!
In the past, Yan Zhaoge had seen the Essence Spirit Martial Grandmaster of the Blood Dragon Sect, Hai Zhengjie, use this secret technique before, following which his strength had instantly increased greatly.
Now, with it being the Transcending Mortality Martial Grandmaster, Nian Chen, who was using this technique, a dense blood fog instantly enveloped the surrounding heavens and earth.
All the blood fog was absorbed by the Blood Dragon Avatar above Nian Chen’s head after which its throat gradually began to swell as well.
Accompanied by the opening of the Blood Dragon Avatar’s mouth, a massive blood orb appeared, flickering with a bloodred light as it dyed the space within the entire surrounding area bloodred.
That blood orb was so massive and dazzling, resembling a sun the colour of blood as it hovered in mid-air.
The blood orb exploded, infinite blood light landing on the Nine Dragon Fingers as the power of this Sacred Artifact was instantly stimulated greatly.
As the claw descended, eight bloodred tears seemed to appear within the air before converging to pressure down at towards where Yan Zhaoge and Shi Jun were.
Yan Zhaoge’s expression did not change. The figure of the Northern Ocean Clone swayed in mid-air, his iron fist that was like the head of a spear drawing a semi-circle.
As soon as this semi-circle appeared, all within the heavens and earth before it, those eight bloodred tears included, were enveloped by it.
The eight bloodred tears frenziedly tried to break their way out as the Northern Ocean Clone’s Northern Ocean Divine Spear curved and blocked it, the two clashing intensely together in mid-air.
The Northern Ocean Clone remained arrogantly where it was, unmoving. Nian Chen’s Blood Dragon Avatar swayed, having been shaken to the point of its footing being unstable.
Still, Yan Zhaoge did not appear triumphant as his heart instead jolted slightly.
A black qi suddenly appeared in the distance, chopping through the great sea as it cleaved over towards this small island!
Nian Wei said coldly in mid-air, “Youngster, there are many people whom you’ve offended. It is not just this old man who wants to deal with you!”
Yan Zhaoge did not appear surprised, “People of the Evil Shifting Sect?”
The black sabre qi before Yan Zhaoge was not unfamiliar to him. It was the Profound Dark Sabre Qi of the Evil Shifting Sect.
As the terrifying black sabre qi cleaved towards the small island, the surrounding region of sea was split apart, the island instantly being cleaved into two as its rocks split apart towards the sides, the sabre-qi breaking through all that stood in its path like tofu as it wanted to cleave Yan Zhaoge and the small island apart together.
The Northern Ocean Clone did not move as it was Yan Zhaoge who flicked his sleeve, green light flickering within as the Green Abyss Sword shot out with the roar of a dragon, transforming into a massive green dragon which intercepted the terrifying black sabre qi.
The black sabre qi shattered, a bloodred light flashing amidst the dense darkness.
The newcomer had another sabre-blow hidden within his first move, a Blood Ocean Sabre Qi concealed in the depths of his Profound Dark Sabre Qi!
A thread of bloodred light rampantly cleaved towards the throat of the green dragon formed of Yan Zhaoge’s sword-light, leaving behind a line of blood across the dragon’s neck.
The thread of bloodred light swiftly extended, wanting to cleave the green dragon apart!
Yan Zhaoge’s gaze emitted a cold light as the scales of the green dragon’s body all pulsated together, a green light that enveloped the heavens and covered the earth being emitted from within.
A cold, shocking light was also emitted from the eyes of the dragon, a long roar that pierced through the nine heavens resounding as the green dragon soared, the sword-light surging madly.
Yan Zhaoge’s Nine Heavens Change of his Coiling Dragon Sword was unleashed at its maximum as it withstood his opponent’s assaulting Blood Ocean Sabre Qi.
The next moment, the green dragon suddenly curled entirely up, seemingly having instantly vanished and concealed itself amidst the clouds as no traces of it could be seen in the least.
That thread of bloodred light had wanted to exert pressure after halting, yet found that it had lost its target.
Beneath the Dragon Concealed Cloud sword technique, the green dragon formed of the sword-light turned small before turning massive again, the changes occurring swiftly as it had already exploded back into size within the next instant, gaining a hold over that thread of bloodred light before gnashing mightily at it!
The terrifying, mournful bloodred light was instantly shattered!
However, from amidst that shattered bloodred light, a sabre in the form of white bones suddenly appeared.
This white bone sabre hacked mightily towards the green dragon.
Following that, a man who was completely covered by bone armour made his appearance.
The bone armour was formed completely of savage bone spikes, causing him to appear incomparably terrifying.
The ferocious baleful qi left everyone present feeling a cold chill, “The Chief of the Evil Shifting Sect, ‘Heavenly Evil’ Feng Jingsheng!”
The newcomer was precisely the Chief of the Evil Shifting Sect of the Six Evil Sects and the fourth ranked Transcending Mortality expert of the Vast Ocean World, Fang Jingsheng!
The most supreme martial art of the Evil Shifting Sect, the Hidden Shifting White Bone Sabre, was executed by him, with his Hidden Shifting White Bone Avatar virtually having merged as one with his own body.
With that sabre, he tried to hack apart the green dragon formed of Yan Zhaoge’s sword along with Yan Zhaoge himself!
Yan Zhaoge’s expression did not change, the cold light that shot out from his eyes instead retracting to turn chaotic and empty.
Numerous spirit talismans condensed between the heavens and the earth before transforming into a profound spirit array, hovering at the tip of Yan Zhaoge’s sword.
The green dragon had vanished, all things seemingly having returned to chaos.
Chaos was destroyed, an incomparably terrifying power being born of this which merged within Yan Zhaoge’s sword!
As sword and sabre clashed, the fierce aftershock of their clash emanated towards the sides, directly splitting the small island below them into two before continuing to spread towards the great sea, splitting the jade sea apart.
Seeing Yan Zhaoge’s spirit array, everyone was first stunned and then shocked.
“Mid Essence Talisman Martial Grandmaster?!”
“Didn’t he only break through into the early Essence Talisman stage back in the Deep Sea Corridor just previously?”
The expression on the face of the Chief of the Evil Shifting Sect, Feng Jingsheng, could not clearly be seen under his armour, but shock was evidently visible within his eyes as well.
Everyone felt a chill as they looked at Yan Zhaoge, not having thought at all that even with the Northern Ocean Clone occupied by Nian Chen and the Nine Dragon Fingers, Yan Zhaoge might still be able to deal with the assault of another Transcending Mort
ality Martial Grandmaster expert.
Now, however, thunder rumbled in the distance, a heavy booming sound approaching from the depths of the sea before erupting upwards beneath Yan Zhaoge’s feet.
The small island down below was completely shattered, the limitless light of thunder shooting into the skies!
Yan Zhaoge’s eyes narrowed into slits, “These Vast Ocean World martial arts-it should be the Brilliant Thunder Sect of the Six Evil Sects? I have never had any dealings with this sect before…”
As the thoughts flashed through his mind, Yan Zhaoge did not slow down in the slightest as he activated Finger Flicking Shocking Thunder, instantly exerting force once more!
As his sword descended, the thunder light shattered!
History's Strongest Senior Brother Chapter 541: Breaking another of your fingers!
HSSB541: Breaking another of your fingers!
The light of thunder exploded unceasingly as it broke apart. A figure that was completely enshrouded in thunderbolts shot over from down below, lunging towards Yan Zhaoge as well.
That momentum was even fiercer than that of the Chief of the Evil Shifting Sect, Feng Jingsheng!
The Chief of the Brilliant Thunder Sect of the Six Evil Sects, the ‘Crimson Thunder King’ Geng Hui!
In the Vast Ocean World, he was ranked first amongst the top ten Transcending Mortality experts!
Not considering Sacred Artifacts and Martial Saints, there was no one who could obtain victory over Geng Hui, a heavyweight of the forces of Evil. In terms of individual strength, he was inferior only to the Chief of the Dragon Slayer Sect Zhao Zhong, the Chief of Water Crystal Palace Lin Shi and the Chief of the Sacred Evil Sect, Lin Qiancheng, being ranked fourth in overall strength in the entire Vast Ocean World.
Even Nian Chen and Feng Jingsheng were rather taken aback by Geng Hui’s appearance.
Nian Chen’s shock soon turned to joy as he glared at Yan Zhaoge, saying coldly, “Let alone that brat surnamed Shi, you should first be worrying whether even you yourself might be able to make it out of this place alive!”
