Chapter 1721: Chapter 44: Who Is Number 1? [Extra Chapters for Huang jin Alliance Leader wise Hai Chen 11, 12]

Even Yan Nan, concealed in the sky, was perplexed.

He knew about the Purple Lightning Bird, but Yan Beihan had obtained the Qiongxiao Flower, without which there was neither the Purple Lightning Bird nor the Qiongxiao Flower.

However...

Seeing over ten thousand people gathered and bombarded by the Purple Lightning Bird was a sight that left Yan Nan and Bi Changhong momentarily blind.

"That Twin-headed Flood Dragon... Purple Lightning Bird..."

Yan Nan was so angry that he saw black before his eyes: "This is all unnecessary loss, isn’t it? Why are so many of you provoking these things for no reason? The Qiongxiao Flower is good, but can you afford to provoke the Purple Lightning Bird?"

Do you even know how to write the phrase ’overestimating oneself’?

But now is clearly not the time to pursue this.

Yan Nan transmitted to Bi Changhong: "Complete the ritual first."

Bi Changhong waved his hand through the air, an awe-inspiring force instantly swept the place, leaving it dead silent.

"Collect the data!"

A man in white appeared carrying a box, placing it on the table, and opened it.

Fang Che cast a furtive glance, seeing indeed the same dark thing, emanating a mysterious, powerful, yet evil aura.

It lay quietly in the box.

"North Headquarters!" ℯ

The etiquette officer cried out loudly.

People from the North Headquarters lined up, approaching that dark object one by one.

The Five Spirits Gu automatically manifested.

Black smoke billowed from the dark object on the box, then data appeared before the box.

"Zhang Changgong, submission, seventy-six people, slaughter, fifteen people. Not qualified!"

"Chen Shangdong, submission, one hundred fifty-one people, slaughter, one person, qualified!"

"Mu Feng... qualified!"

Upon hearing the name, Fang Che furrowed his brows. That guy is actually among them? I haven’t seen him until now.

"..."

The etiquette officer continued calling names and reporting numbers. At the side, two people in white busily tallied scores.

Everyone below stared with wide eyes and strained ears listening.

Finally reaching...

"Hanjian Mountain Sect!"

No response.

"Hanjian Mountain Sect!"

Still no response.

"Everyone from Hanjian Mountain Sect was killed by Yemo when they came out," someone said among them.

A moment of silence.

"All dead?"

Yan Beihan’s eyes widened.

"Killed by Yemo?"

Yan Beihan immediately lowered his eyes.

Bi Yunyan was quite displeased and said, "This Yemo deliberately disrespects us, doesn’t he? That brat needs a good lesson!"

Since hearing Yan Beihan say Yemo had ’poor character, delights in womanizing,’ his impression of Yemo had become extremely bad.

Above.

The etiquette officer shouted, "Hanjian Mountain Sect leader, come out! Kneel down!"

Within the crowd, Ji Changyan’s face turned pale, his body trembling slightly.

Why do I... have to go out and kneel?

Someone beside him explained, "Sect Leader Ji, it’s the rule..."

The etiquette officer called twice, Ji Changyan’s face green and white, his feet unmoving.

Though he was a sect leader from an Outer World Mountain Sect, his status, while not comparable to the Sect Hierarch of Wei Wo Zheng, was in principle equal by title...

Now... to be required to go out and kneel? Before such a large audience?

It’s truly unbearable!

Bi Changhong’s face darkened, two figures beside him surged forth like lightning: "Ji Changyan! Are you deaf? Come out! Kneel!"

Yan Beihan gracefully descended, landing before Ji Changyan.

Ji Changyan, seeing a savior, said, "Mr. Yan! I..."

Yan Beihan said calmly, "Sect Leader Ji, this is the rule of Wei Wo Zheng Sect—everything is based on performance and strength. Your people are all dead, so you must come forward and kneel. If my name were called, I would also have to come forward and kneel!"

"This is not intentionally to humiliate you! It is... the rule!"

"So, is kneeling unavoidable?" Ji Changyan asked in despair.

"Yes, it is unavoidable," Yan Beihan nodded.

Ji Changyan’s beard trembled, his eyes somewhat despondent.

Turning to the two elders who came with him, both elders lowered their heads.

"Heh..."

Ji Changyan let out a miserable laugh, his body swaying, walking out like a living corpse, feeling as though his knees weighed a thousand pounds.

He walked to the stage. His Divine Sense was a bit dazed.

Then he heard a loud shout from above: "Kneel!"

Ji Changyan’s knees bent slightly, yet he straightened them again.

He still wanted to maintain some dignity.

Kneel down? What a humiliation?

Swoosh!

A figure appeared before him.

Two loud slaps left Ji Changyan seeing stars, as he was struck with two heavy blows to his cheeks, followed by sharp kicks to his knees, crashing him to the ground.

His entire body shook.

His mind filled with flashes and thunder, as though his entire life was shattered at this moment.

He knelt, not daring to raise his head. But he felt as though all his strength, all his hopes, all his bones, all his aspirations, all his dignity... had been completely drained at this instant!

From high above, a cold voice descended: "Ji Changyan, bearing in mind it’s your first offense, I’ll spare you this time! Dare to repeat, and you’ll be sliced to a thousand pieces!"

Ji Changyan, kneeling on the ground, found his mind clouded, feeling as though he had become an empty shell, his soul entirely vanquished.

Now kneeling here, just a walking corpse.

In a trance, a figure seemingly flashed before his eyes, it was Uncle-Master Gu Changhan.

Gu Changhan, clad in white, his mien steely, like a sword, unyielding and upright, his voice clangored as metal striking: "Our Hanjian Mountain Sect must live up to the name Hanjian. Hanjian means a sword as cold as winter, better to obtain directly than to seek indirectly! Rather break than bend, better die than yield; that is Hanjian!"

Ji Changyan knelt against the ground with his forehead.

He felt as though his heart had split open.
