Chapter 781
In mid-air.
Sun Zimei swiftly extended a clawed hand, aiming an attack at this lowly servant.
The frustration was overwhelming...
In front of so many elders from other sects, even elders from the higher sect, this little servant had the audacity to be so clueless.
But to his surprise, before he could even land, another palm struck out.
It was Fan Chong who had made his move.
And his target was none other than Sun Zimei.
"Ah!"
Sun Zimei, no match for Fan Chong, let out a yelp of pain in mid-air and was sent flying backward, crashing into a row of buildings.
"Elder Fan, what is the meaning of this?"
Sun Zimei spat out blood as he climbed to his feet, looking at Fan Chong with confusion and indignation.
This sudden turn of events also immediately aroused suspicion among the elders from other sects.
Why would Fan Chong suddenly attack Sun Zimei?
Could it be that this lowly servant held some extraordinary identity?
"You don’t know why?"
"You really don’t know why?"
Fan Chong’s pupils narrowed, his piercing gaze locking onto Sun Zimei.
Sun Zimei looked utterly wronged.
Did he have to know why?
"I... I really don’t know!" Sun Zimei said awkwardly, his face twisted in distress.
"You truly don’t know?"
Fan Chong’s gaze grew sharper, and his brow furrowed.
Su Bai.
He knew very well.
It was because before he left, the elders in the underground palace of the sacred mountain, including Elder Wang Yiyun, had given him a crucial task besides Yi Feng. ᚱaƝоᛒΕʂ
Yi Feng’s personal servant.
A powerhouse at the peak of the True Immortal Rank.
And judging from Yi Feng’s own power, this servant likely surpassed the True Immortal Rank.
Regardless of whether Su Bai was just a servant or not, Fan Chong didn’t care. But considering Su Bai’s strength, comparable to that of his own sect’s patriarch, it was enough to make them treat him with utmost respect.
Moreover, this servant might even be Yi Feng’s spokesperson!
Under such circumstances.
He couldn’t fathom how Sun Zimei, as the Great Elder of Hundred Refinements Sect, could be unaware of Su Bai’s identity and dare to attack him.
"Perhaps Senior Su Bai usually maintains a low profile, and only we know of his true strength, while others assume he’s just a lowly servant?" someone beside Fan Chong speculated.
Fan Chong’s eyes flickered.
He nodded.
After a round of questioning, Sun Zimei focused on the details of that day’s ascension.
"That’s correct!"
Jiang Zuo and Jiang You respectfully replied, "We still can’t figure out how a lowly servant like him managed to do it."
"And apart from that, what other incidents occurred at Heavenly Tyrant Sect?" Sun Zimei asked further.
"Other than the staircase, the main thing was the way Heavenly Tyrant Sect treated us."
Jiang Zuo and Jiang You recalled and recounted how Heavenly Tyrant Sect had unexpectedly given them special treatment.
"What?"
"Is such a thing even possible?"
Sun Zimei shot to his feet.
His mind suddenly cleared, and he felt he had guessed the truth with a reasonable degree of certainty.
Su Bai was a super expert!
He had been hiding within Hundred Refinements Sect as a lowly servant, and no one had known.
But this time, through a series of fortunate coincidences at Heavenly Tyrant Sect, his true strength was recognized.
Recognizing Su Bai’s might, Heavenly Tyrant Sect had treated Jiang Zuo and Jiang You, who had accompanied him, with top-tier hospitality. Otherwise, there was no way to explain why two enforcers from a lower sect could receive such treatment at a higher sect.
Then.
The other sects, receiving news, immediately rushed to Hundred Refinements Sect to offer gifts.
And when he tried to attack Su Bai, Fan Chong had brutally stopped him, leaving him injured.
All these events fit together perfectly.
If one added in past occurrences, there was no room for doubt.
Like the incident where countless beasts of Hundred Refinements Sect had been mysteriously slain by an unknown hand.
For that mysterious assailant, they had long been filled with dread and had been searching for them.
Now it seemed that the elusive assailant was Su Bai.
Sun Zimei also recalled with a shock that the day he took his disciples into the mountains, he had personally seen Su Bai emerge from the forest unscathed.
At the time, he had wondered how a lowly servant could enter the mountains and come out unharmed.
"Since Great Elder has pieced it together, then I’ll be blunt!"
Seeing that Sun Zimei had almost unraveled the entire mystery, Wang Yue, who had initially hesitated to reveal Su Bai’s power, decided to come clean and told the story of how Su Bai had saved his brother.
"Such a thing actually happened!"
Sun Zimei stood up solemnly.
He took a deep breath.
With Wang Yue’s revelation, there could be no further doubt.
Su Bai.
Was a mysterious powerhouse!
Whether it was Heavenly Tyrant Sect or those dozens of sects, all of this was because of him.
Never had he imagined.
That within Hundred Refinements Sect, there lay such a grand deity.
