Chapter 441 Grand Secretary Zhou Bows His Head
There was still no outburst of power, but even without it, Qin Chuan was enough to instill fear in everyone present.
too frightening.
Isn't the meaning obvious enough?
If you don't kneel, you'll die.
Everyone present gasped in shock. Was this a plan to target even the elders of the Tian Shu Pavilion?
It's bad enough that they wiped out the Supreme Alliance, but they even dared to attack the Tian Shu Pavilion.
Everyone thought Qin Chuan was really crazy. Given Grand Secretary Zhou's status, how could he kneel down?
But Qin Chuan's meaning is very clear now: not kneeling means death, and even the legs of the four commanders have been cut off.
"what……"
Throughout the trial courtroom, the four commanders' agonizing screams continued.
Their cultivation levels were by no means low, yet they were utterly powerless to resist Qin Chuan's sword strike.
How could this be?
Now they were even forced to make their adoptive father kneel down. The four commanders were filled with hatred, but they were completely powerless to fight back and could only wail and cry out in pain.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Grand Secretary Zhou, and they also wanted to know if Grand Secretary Zhou had any other tricks up his sleeve.
Or... a major battle.
For Grand Secretary Zhou to become the Grand Secretary of the Tian Shu Pavilion, his strength must even surpass that of the four elders.
He might be a demigod, and could be quite formidable.
However, once a major war begins, defeat could very well mean death.
Grand Secretary Zhou's expression was extremely grim as he stared intently at Qin Chuan.
As an elder of the Tian Shu Pavilion, he had long been accustomed to the feeling of being in charge of martial arts. Any peak martial arts expert had to be polite and respectful when they saw him.
Who has ever dared to speak to me like that?
Never!
Not to mention kneeling, Grand Secretary Zhou really had an urge to kill him, but reason told him that he couldn't make a move, otherwise he would likely die.
"Emperor Qin, I am an elder of the Heavenly Pivot Pavilion..."
Grand Secretary Zhou was delusional, thinking he could use his status to pressure Qin Chuan. But if that were effective, the four elders wouldn't have died, the deliberation committee wouldn't have died, and his four adopted sons wouldn't have had their legs cut off.
Before he could finish speaking, the cyan sword light had already slashed over.
"Hold!"
Grand Secretary Zhou's hair stood on end. He cursed and, without the slightest hesitation, his inner energy surged. Seeing the azure sword light approaching, he slammed his palms together, forcefully trapping the azure sword light between them.
Catching a blade bare-handed!
Even though he caught it, Grand Secretary Zhou's knees buckled from the sword energy. Although he didn't kneel down, he was still in a very sorry state.
Everyone present stared wide-eyed, because Qin Chuan had really made his move; this sword strike was truly meant to kill Grand Secretary Zhou.
Although he just said that not kneeling would mean death, given Zhou Ge Lao's status, Qin Chuan might not actually make a move.
Some people still believe that even if Grand Secretary Zhou doesn't kneel today, Qin Chuan wouldn't dare to do anything.
But now that they've really made a move, it shows they don't even put the Heavenly Pivot Pavilion in their eyes!
"He...he actually dared to touch Grand Secretary Zhou!" Ao Jiutian was stunned.
As a powerful expert in the Divine Realm, he was even more aware of the terror of the Heavenly Pivot Pavilion. The status of Elder Zhou was far beyond what the Four Commanders or Four Elders could compare to.
This sword strike sealed the fate of Tian Shu Pavilion, ensuring that Qin Chuan would not be easily spared.
"Emperor Qin, do you really dare to kill me?"
Grand Secretary Zhou gritted his teeth, his voice filled with intense anger.
As a senior official, how dare someone attack me today?
"I am an elder of the Tian Shu Pavilion. The Tian Shu Pavilion will not let you off easily for what you have done. You had better think carefully about the consequences!"
Even now, Grand Secretary Zhou still thinks about using his power to intimidate others.
He just couldn't understand how Qin Chuan, a peak martial arts expert, could be unaware of the terror of the Tian Shu Pavilion.
Qin Chuan remained silent, his fingers moving swiftly and gently pressing down.
The cyan sword light surged, and the sword energy swept across the sky like a raging torrent.
Boom!
The area around Grand Secretary Zhou exploded violently, and he coughed up a mouthful of blood, his face turning even paler.
"Emperor Qin..."
"I'm kneeling!!!"
No longer caring about saving face, Grand Secretary Zhou knelt down on the ground without the slightest hesitation.
In that brief moment, Grand Secretary Zhou had already felt the shadow of death looming over him. He didn't want to die; he wanted to live more than anyone else.
How could someone who pursues and desires immortality possibly want to die? On the contrary, such a person would do anything to survive.
The cyan sword light quickly dissipated.
Grand Secretary Zhou's kneeling caused everyone present to be somewhat stunned.
Since the establishment of the Tian Shu Pavilion, countless years have passed, and no martial artist has ever dared to provoke it, not even those who have truly advanced to the level of a half-immortal.
This is a consensus among all martial arts experts, because the Tian Shu Pavilion is not one they can afford to offend. It represents the pinnacle of power and martial arts. The Supreme Alliance Guards are similar, but they are still far inferior to the Tian Shu Pavilion.
But this elder of the Tian Shu Pavilion actually knelt down before Qin Chuan…
Everyone was incredulous, even more so than before.
They were already shocked by the killing of the four elders, then by the destruction of the deliberation group, and then by the severing of the legs of the four commanders, but none of these shocked them as much as this moment.
Grand Secretary Zhou's kneeling signifies that the Tian Shu Pavilion has bowed its head!
For a moment, the entire courtroom was silent, even the four commanders who had just been screaming fell silent.
The four commanders were all adopted sons of Grand Secretary Zhou. In their hearts, Grand Secretary Zhou was a god-like figure, not only in terms of status but also in terms of power.
"Godfather..."
The four commanders were as pale as paper, and their voices were extremely weak. But when they saw their godfather kneeling before Qin Chuan, their expressions were incredibly complex, and their eyes were filled with disappointment.
There's a feeling of my beliefs collapsing.
Grand Secretary Zhou knew that he had lost face and that Tian Shu Pavilion had also lost face, but he couldn't care less. Compared to his own life, what did Tian Shu Pavilion matter?
People are not killed for their own sake.
Grand Secretary Zhou valued his life more than anything else. A true man can bend and stretch; what's wrong with kneeling down to save his life?
With the collapse of the Supreme Alliance, Grand Secretary Zhou's kneeling gesture sealed the fate of today's trial, which was destined to be fruitless.
Qin Chuan didn't say anything more, nor did he continue killing. He slowly walked towards the exit of the courtroom. When he reached Zhou Ge Lao's side, he paused for a moment, glanced at him sideways as if he were looking at an ant, and then left.
After Qin Chuan's footsteps faded into the distance, a hint of resentment flashed across Grand Secretary Zhou's face.
"Emperor Qin, I will repay this debt a hundredfold, a thousandfold, ten thousandfold in the future!!!"
