Return of Supreme
Emperor
Chapter 69: Fall of Phoenix
Phoenix sect is one of the best sects in the entire continent and their flame spells/skills are just THE BEST
But that's what I would like to say, in truth- The Phoenix has fallen down as it has lost its wing
Today we will talk about a sect that used to 'Dominate' the world of the cultivation and rivaled the Flaming Dragon Sect
And the fall of the sect is not new but only 10 years old
Let's know what happened-
Around 10 years ago, a kid knocked the door of Phoenix sect
The kid had all rugged and tattered clothes on him.
From every angle, you could tell that he is poor
The sect master took mercy or pity on the child and took him in, that time he was just 15 years old
As time passed by years, the kid lived inside the sect and work for other disciples
Those rich disciples use to make fun of him for being poor but he never minded as the sect was the only place he had to stay
So he kept on moving forward
As time passed, the kid showed interest in cultivation and asked the sect master to teach him the cultivation
The sect master smiled and said "The path of cultivation is not something that can be walked by anyone, if you want to be a cultivator then you have to prove that you are worthy"
"How can I prove my worth?" The kid asked
Sect master took him behind the sect ground area, where a big mountain is.
And in that mountain, from the ground to the peak, there are total of 10 thousand stairs
The sect master pointed at the stairs and said "if you can climb those 10 thousand steps then I will show you the path of cultivation"
The kid's eyes glittered with hope as he nodded and took his step on the stairs
The reason why the sect master put this type of absurd task in front of a 15-year-old kid is due to the fact that he doesn't want him to be a cultivator
The kid is pure
But the life of cultivator is harsh, he will die anytime. And this was something he didn't want to see
Thus this task was put in front of him
Time passed by the minute and then hours, then days
The kid kept on climbing on stairs
His both feet were bleeding but he still kept on climbing
He was hungry
He was thirsty
But he never left his steps stop
And finally, with the sunrise, he reached the peak of the mountain
"FINALLY" The kid said as he cried in joy
He takes a look around him but he didn't saw the sect master
But he did saw a giant bell
With a smile, he walked towards the bell and then he picked a small stone to ring the bell
*DHONG*
*DHONG*
*DHONG*
The kid kept on throwing stones at the bell till sound produced by the bell was loud enough to be heard all over the sect
When the sect master heard the bell, he came running towards the child
"you" The sect master saw the kid and was stunned as the kid's feet were bleeding heavily and under his eyes their dark circles
It was as if he is on the verge of dying
But still, the flames inside those eyes were as vigorous as it could be
"Sect Master, am I now worthy to become a cultivator?" the kid asked
The sect master hugged the kid and said "yes, you are. You are way more worthy than anyone"
. . .
Time passed by years as the kid showed some explosive results
Even the word genius was not enough to show his talent, he was literally the best
In just 2 years, he reaches the 5thd stage of the spirit realm and was about to kick the doors of the celestial realm
His Qi control, he flame spells and his sword skills, everything about him made the sect master proud on him
He was the best
But my dear friends, if there is a hero in the story then there will be a villain also
The sect master also had another disciple
He was a bit old but still, he is also a genius, his name is Liang Jun
Liang Jun, who is the first disciple of the sect master and had been with him for who knows how long time, as no one knows his age
It was clear that his loyalty for his master was just above anything
But his jealousy over that one kid was also something beyond anyone could believe
Seeing the kid being so much favored by his master, his loyalty trembled as he feared that in the future, the kid will take the seat and the skills from his master
Thus, begin the stormy rivalry between these 2
The whole sect was divided into 2 sides and the battle took place
It was brutal, it was gore, but it was something unavoidable
Flames erupted here and there which burned one after another life of disciples of the opposite side, as well as the sect peace, was also burned
Schemes were made to destroy that one person (let's not call him kid anymore)
Did he go into those schemes and traps?
Yes, he did
Many secret skills from the sect disappeared and the person responsible for this was him
The sect master knew who was really behind those schemes but he couldn't do anything
Thus he was banished from the sect
That man/person didn't like this decision
he worked so hard, he broke his bone, he slept with no food or water in missions, he did everything he could to be recognized by those people who were against him
But what did he get?
He never asked for something big
He never asked for sect masters special skills
He never wanted to be the sect master
He never asked fame
He never asked for anything
He just wanted to be recognized
But years of hard work and all those reputations is lost in the blink, all due to those rich and arrogant peoples decision
. . .
That night, the storm was about to come and it came
Thunderstruck in the sky
And blood fall on the ground, as that man killed every person who didn't recognize him
He only asked for respect
To be true, he never wanted to kill his own sect disciple but fate has forced him to kill them
He knew it very well that his sect will fall, if these people will live
Thus, he wanted to make sure that the sect won't fall
So he took the sword in his hand and burned those evil people who dared to make his sect fall low
One after another, an elder of the sect was killed, teachers were killed and then disciples were also killed
He didn't kill everyone, only those who are wrong
But, that night when he started killing those who are wrong, he started enjoying killing.
He lost his composure
And when he came to kill Liang Jun, he was stopped by none other than his father like sect master
Words came out of each person and when the words failed, sword clashed with each other
But in that battle, something happened
Liang Jun sneaked attack at the sect master from behind
And then started shouting that the sect master is being killed by that man
Many people and other disciples came and attacked him with their sword
That man screamed the truth but no one believed him
Finally, he lost his last sanity and killed everyone at that place
Innocent or not, he didn't care about anything
He just killed everyone
He wanted to kill Liang Jun but he escaped and as other immortals from big families came near him, he has to take his steps back
. . .
And as you all know, Deadman tells no tale
So, everyone believed in Liang Jun's word and made that man the most wanted criminal
Lian Jun became the sect master as he was the only official disciples of the past sect master
+ + +
This is the story of this great sect which is no longer great anymore
As for that man/person's name
Its, Yin Chun
