Chapter 385: Giving a Warning to the Grand Elders

Jiang Fan touched his nose.

He gradually realized that these old men and women were not ordinary people. It seemed they were also part of the martial arts world.

This would make things much easier!

When he demonstrated his martial arts, ordinary people couldn't discern his true power. But how could those in the martial arts world not see it?

In the future, when dealing with Chuan Chuan, they would undoubtedly weigh the consequences of treating her harshly.

“Alright! I’ll play a song then.”

Jiang Fan decisively unfastened the wooden box on his back, quickly opened it, and took out an ivory-white guqin.

Upon seeing the guqin, the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Sound Sect’s smile suddenly froze!

“The Heavenly Sound Sect’s Grand Elder's innate magical artifact?” he exclaimed in surprise. “How did it end up in your hands?”

He certainly had some discernment. That was even better.

Jiang Fan stroked the strings and said, “Fu Chaojun, the chief disciple of the Heavenly Sound Sect, tried to frame me in a perilous situation.”

“This guqin was given by Elder Ming Youlian as collateral for Fu Chaojun’s debt.”

“Oh, and Fu Chaojun was defeated by me.”

Since he was going to display his strength, it was time to reveal all these achievements that he usually preferred not to mention.

Their own chief disciple, defeated by this newcomer? He was utterly incredulous.

Jiang Fan said, “Now, I will play a cultivation method from the Heavenly Sound Sect!”

“This cultivation method, superficially named ‘Breaking Formation Melody,’ is a musical score that no one in the Heavenly Sound Sect has been able to comprehend for a long time.”

“They challenged me to comprehend it, despite their skepticism.”

The group of Supreme Elders nodded discreetly.

The Heavenly Sound Sect indeed possessed a very mysterious Earth-grade musical score, ‘Breaking Formation Melody.’

It was said to have flaws, and no one had ever successfully comprehended it.

Even Fu Chaojun, hailed as a once-in-a-century musical genius, hadn't comprehended much of it.

The Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Sound Sect chuckled, “Oh? Play it, play it quickly. Let this old man hear what you’ve comprehended.”

After generations of attempts, ‘Breaking Formation Melody’ had long been deemed flawed and impossible to cultivate successfully.

Currently, it was only provided to interested disciples to train their musical talent.

It had essentially become a useless item.

He didn't believe that Jiang Fan, an outsider, could comprehend anything valuable from it.

However, as Jiang Fan's hands touched the guqin, he immediately played sharp, powerful notes that seemed to burst eardrums!

It was like a fierce dragon emerging from the sea, letting out an earth-shattering roar in their ears.

The terrifying sound waves generated by the notes pulverized all the surrounding flowers and plants!

The ground was vibrated into ravines from which white smoke billowed.

The scene instantly became a mess.

The Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Sound Sect's face changed drastically as he exclaimed, “An Earth-grade musical cultivation method?!”

“You comprehended that from ‘Breaking Formation Melody’?”

Jiang Fan pressed down on the strings, put away the guqin, and said, “Exactly. It’s called ‘Tiger Roar Dragon Chant Art.’”

“The Heavenly Sound Sect kept ‘Breaking Formation Melody’ to itself for no benefit, nearly letting the hidden ‘Tiger Roar Dragon Chant Art’ within it be lost forever.”

The group of Supreme Elders exchanged bewildered glances.

“Didn't the Heavenly Sound Sect always boast that joining them required musical talent?”

“How could they be inferior to an outsider?”

“No junior in the entire sect could comprehend it?”

“I really admire the Heavenly Sound Sect. They don’t even have an Earth-grade musical cultivation method themselves, yet they freely give it to others. Truly selfless, truly great.”

Instantly, the Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Sound Sect’s old face flushed crimson.

This… this was utterly humiliating!

Qin Wangchuan grinned, delighted. “Second Grandma, don't you think the Heavenly Sound Sect is full of idiots?”

“They're not even as good as a junior disciple from the Azure Cloud Sect.”

The Supreme Elder of the Heavenly Sound Sect wished he could find a hole to crawl into, awkwardly coughing repeatedly:

“This matter, I don’t know. I don’t know anything.”

Another one was socially mortified.

Qin Wangchuan struck while the iron was hot, turning her gaze to the Supreme Elder of the Joyful Union Sect.

The latter straightened his chest and confidently said, “What about the Joyful Union Sect? We’ve had plenty of embarrassing incidents, so one more won’t matter.”

The Joyful Union Sect focused on cultivating the mind; minor honor or disgrace didn’t faze them.

Jiang Fan recalled, “As for the Joyful Union Sect, I didn't have any particularly special experiences.”

“It's just that their Sect Master is truly not to be complimented.”

“When she couldn't force me to join the Joyful Union Sect, she actually put a bounty on me.”

“It certainly was an eye-opener.”

Uh— Several Supreme Elders looked at the Joyful Union Sect’s Supreme Elder with bewildered expressions.

“Surely not? If she can’t get someone, she puts a bounty on them?”

“Although the Joyful Union Sect emphasizes doing as one pleases, isn't that a bit beneath their status?”

“It is a bit unrefined.”

The Supreme Elder of the Joyful Union Sect said awkwardly, “Our Sect Master is a bit eccentric, but she shouldn’t do something like that.”

“Otherwise, how could Jiang Fan, a junior disciple, escape her grasp?”

Although he didn't care about external honor or disgrace, this matter was still somewhat embarrassing.

Jiang Fan became annoyed upon hearing this.

“She certainly tried to catch me, even using Heavenly Mountain Silkworm Silk!”

“Fortunately, I cultivated movement techniques and managed to escape.”

At the mention of Heavenly Mountain Silkworm Silk, most people believed him.

But claiming to have escaped directly from the Joyful Union Sect Master was something no one could believe.

It wasn't until Jiang Fan demonstrated his movement technique, rapidly circling the back garden in a single breath, that the group of Supreme Elders finally became astonished.

“What an incredibly profound movement technique!”

“No wonder the Joyful Union Sect Master couldn't catch him!”

“The Joyful Union Sect Master must be furious, right?”

“Unable to forcibly recruit him, unable to pursue him, and failing to bounty him, she must be extremely frustrated.”

“Remind the juniors to be careful when going to the Joyful Union Sect. Either cultivate advanced movement techniques before going, or don’t seek attention.”

“Beware of being detained.”

The Supreme Elder of the Joyful Union Sect said awkwardly, “That’s an exaggeration, an exaggeration.”

“It’s not as serious as you’re making it sound.”

His back, which had just been ramrod straight, now slumped.

He couldn't lift his head anymore.

Qin Wangchuan burst out laughing.

So, Jiang Fan also had a story related to the Joyful Union Sect.

Alright, another one socially mortified.

She shifted her gaze, looking towards the Supreme Elder of the Myriad Sword Sect.

The latter, feeling a bit guilty, said, “Jiang Fan hasn’t been to our Myriad Sword Sect, has he?”

He reassured himself that the Myriad Sword Sect conducted itself properly.

There shouldn't be anything embarrassing to speak of.

However, the previous examples made him feel somewhat uneasy.

“I have.”

Jiang Fan's single sentence made his heart tremble. “Nothing happened, did it?”

Jiang Fan smiled slightly, “The seniors of the Myriad Sword Sect are all quite good.”

“They were also kind to me.”

Hearing this, that Supreme Elder let out a long sigh of relief.

Phew, that’s good.

Nothing embarrassing to mention.

To his surprise, the next moment he froze in place as if he had seen a ghost.

“Senior Xu Qingyang even taught me Sword Control Art!”

Whoosh— As Jiang Fan activated his Sword Heart, the Mourning Frost Sword on his back suddenly unsheathed.

It transformed into a long rainbow, piercing through the sky.

“What? Sword Control Art!!!”

“Didn't they say that the Sword Control Art was lost in the Myriad Sword Sect, with no successors?”

“How did this kid learn it?”

The Supreme Elders' eyes widened in astonishment.

The Supreme Elder of the Myriad Sword Sect felt dizzy. “No, no, something isn't right here.”

“How could our Myriad Sword Sect’s supreme ultimate technique be learned by an outsider?”

“And learned so easily!”

“If word gets out, people will think our Myriad Sword Sect is full of incompetents!”

Qin Wangchuan was immensely pleased.

“Why don’t you smile again? Weren't you laughing quite happily just now?”

The Supreme Elder of the Myriad Sword Sect smiled.

It was a bitter smile!

Where in the world did this peerless sword cultivation genius come from?

A single Sword Control Art directly shamed all the disciples of the Myriad Sword Sect.
