Chapter 871: Monster

The place fell completely silent once Senior Nie revealed Yuan's identity to the Sect Masters.

Since none of the Sect Masters were directly involved in the Mystic Realm, none of them recognized Yuan. However, they were definitely intrigued by his existence, as he was able to open the Mystic Pagoda that had been sealed for countless years.

They also didn't think that they would be meeting him anytime soon, as it hasn't been that long since the Mystic Realm ended.

After many moments of silence, Sun Hao spoke, "I'm sorry, Senior Nie, but I won't be able to back down— I can't. I simply can't forgive him, who severed my arm. He must pay for it!"

Bai Enjue then said, "I also won't stop now. I don't have any grudges against him, but I cannot put down my sword after fighting him— my pride won't allow it."

Senior Nie sighed after hearing their words, but he didn't continue to persuade them.

Although Senior Nie isn't a Sect Master, he has been part of the Heavenly Academy even before the current Sect Master, and his reputation and authority within the sect isn't any less than Sect Master Li.

In fact, most people within the Seven Spirit Academies see Senior Nie as a retired Sect Master despite having never taken up that position.

"What about the rest of you? I won't tell you to not fight him, but I highly discourage it." Senior Nie turned to look at the others.

"I am out." Sect Master Xiahou said out loud before taking a few steps back.

As the Sect Master of the Healing Spirit Academy, she specializes in alchemy more than actual combat, and she didn't want to risk her life for something so pointless.

"I will fight," said the Sect Master of the Lonely River Academy, as he was very close with Formless Sword Academy's Sect Master. He would be filled with guilt if he didn't assist Bai Enjue.
