The Jade-faced Judge had always yed weak, leading people to believe he had encountered a setback in his cultivation and hadn''t yet recovered his strength. Previously, during the events of Miefo Pce and Yan Gui City, the Jade-faced Judge barely made any moves.

    Therefore, everyone always believed his strength was inferior to the Beigong War God.

    And since the Beigong War God was defeated by the four Major Sect, with the Jade-faced Judge not being as strong as the Beigong War God, why would anyone regard him?

    The Jade-faced Judge''s expression was cold: "As for my strength, you''ll understand once you''ve fought me. Sect Leader Qi, I advise you that with your strength, it''s really not worth mentioning in my presence!"

    Sect Leader Qi became furious: "Old monster, you are courting death!"

    Though the Jade-faced Judge appeared to be a young man in his twenties, he was actually over three hundred years old, not much different from Sect Leader Qi. Hence, people secretly cursed him as an old monster.

    Now that Sect Leader Qi hadpletely torn off the pretense, he certainly wouldn''t give face to the Jade-faced Judge. With a roar, he immediately rushed toward the Jade-faced Judge, striking several palms simultaneously at him.

    Sect Leader Qi''s strength was among the top tier of the Land Immortals. Though his prowess was not equal to the Sky de Peak Master, it wasn''t far off. In his view, dealing with the Jade-faced Judge personally would surely pose no problem.

    The Jade-faced Judge looked coldly at Sect Leader Qi, and just as Sect Leader Qi rushed him, he quickly made his move, meeting several palms at once.

    The two exchanged a few blows in mid-air, and Sect Leader Qi was pushed back several steps, while the Jade-faced Judge remained stoically in ce, not retreating even an inch. The disparity in their strengths was apparent in this moment.

    Sect Leader Qi hadn''t expected such an oue. He thought that even if he couldn''t defeat the Jade-faced Judge, they could at least contend for a while. Unexpectedly, after the exchange, he immediately fell to a disadvantage, leaving him infuriated and profoundly shocked.

    No wonder the Jade-faced Judge could be on par with the Beigong War God; this person''s strength is indeed formidable!

    At the very least, Sect Leader Qi''s own power certainly couldn''t kill the Jade-faced Judge.

    Sect Leader Qi stood awkwardly for a moment, uncertain whether he should continue attacking the Jade-faced Judge.

    Just then, the Lingxiao Tower Lord, who wasn''t far behind him, walked out calmly and said, "Old Ge truly has remarkable skills, quite admirable. However, with such abilities, assisting the Second Elder raises suspicions of aiding and abetting. If Old Ge wishes to assist us, upon the Heavenly Court''s return, Old Ge shall still be one of the Four Major Sect. What does Old Ge think of this?"

    The Second Elder''s expression immediately changed; the Lingxiao Tower Lord intends to poach his people right in front of him. If the Jade-faced Judge and his folks defected to the other side, the Second Elder would bepletely doomed!

    Before the Second Elder could speak, the Jade-faced Judge coldly replied: "Sorry, but Old Ge detests those unfaithful wanderers the most. Since Old Ge chose to assist the Second Elder, he certainly won''t abandon him halfway!"

    The Second Elder exhaled with relief, growing even more trustful of the Jade-faced Judge. Stepping forward, he angrily shouted, "Tower Lord Ling, you truly are shameless. Betraying others is one thing, but trying to drag Old Ge into it? What, got addicted to betrayal? Truly believe everyone is as untrustworthy as you?"

    The Lingxiao Tower Lord, rejected by the Jade-faced Judge and scolded by the Second Elder, instantly turned grim. Taking a deep breath, he coldly said: "Old Ge, I recognized your talent and developed an admiration for it. You should see the situation clearly today. If you continue to help the Second Elder, then today, I''m afraid we''ll have no choice but to resolve it all together!"

    "Old Ge has never feared death for life!" The Jade-faced Judgeughed loudly: "Tower Lord Ling, thank you for your good intentions. s, Old Ge truly cannotmit such betrayal!"

    "It seems Old Ge has great confidence in himself!" Lingxiao Tower Lord trembled his right hand, and a longsword appeared directly in his grip. He stood with the sword, coldly gazing at the Jade-faced Judge, and said in a deep tone: "I wonder how many sword strikes Old Ge can endure from me?"

    As he spoke, the aura on Lingxiao Tower Lord''s body surged intensely. The fierce momentum made the Jade-faced Judge''s expression change instantly.

    Furrowing his brows, the Jade-faced Judge reexamined the Lingxiao Tower Lord, shocked to the extreme.

    From the aura, he could already feel that the Lingxiao Tower Lord''s strength was even stronger than the Sky de Peak Master.

    It seemed, the Jade-faced Judge had indeed underestimated the Lingxiao Tower Lord. Previously, he only thought the Lingxiao Tower Lord was adept at concealment, but he hadn''t realized that this person was so skilled at hiding his actual power. His strength likely ranks the strongest among the Four Major Sect, yet he has never exposed it, letting outsiders always believe the strongest was the Sky de Peak Master; truly remarkable!

    However, thinking of how this person had been lurking so long, waiting for this opportunity to seize all power, the Jade-faced Judge felt at ease. The Lingxiao Tower Lord is definitely not benevolent; concealing strength is indeed for a day like today?

    This scenario was simr to the Jade-faced Judge''s concealment; he had always hidden everything for the final n.

    However, no one knows what the Jade-faced Judge''s n is, whereas the Lingxiao Tower Lord''s objectives are quite obvious.

    The Jade-faced Judge nced sideways at the Second Elder, secretly scoffing internally. The stronger the Lingxiao Tower Lord''s strength, the more advantageous for him; he could just let the Second Elder witness the Lingxiao Tower Lord''s power. Thus, the Second Elder would utterly lose hope and decide to hide, which is precisely what the Jade-faced Judge desired!

    "Tower Lord Ling is indeed not simple!" A multitude of thoughts raced through the Jade-faced Judge''s mind, but his facade showed no trace of his ponderings. He calmly watched the Lingxiao Tower Lord and softly said: "But my stance remains the same; to kill the Second Elder, you''ll have to step over my dead body first!"

    "Then I shall first turn you into a corpse!" The Lingxiao Tower Lord shouted coldly, taking a deliberate step forward, his longsword in hand directing toward the Jade-faced Judge.

    In this moment, the air around seemed to freeze. A tremendous pressure swiftly targeted the Jade-faced Judge, as if a mountain pressed upon him, causing his entire body to tremor and his back to involuntarily bend somewhat.

    The Jade-faced Judge took a deep breath, slowly straightened his body, and defiantly stared at the Lingxiao Tower Lord.

    The Lingxiao Tower Lord''s expression was calm, as if he didn''t care in the slightest. With a flick of his sword, the pressure increased by fifty percent.

    With a crack, the stone beneath the Jade-faced Judge''s feet shattered, his legs sunk into the ground, and his body bent profoundly, demonstrating the terror of the pressure.

    The Jade-faced Judge gritted his teeth, enduring the immense pressure, feeling extremely ufortable. Yet, he remained standing firm.

    "Quite some skill!" The Lingxiao Tower Lord chuckled: "However, how long can you sustain it?"
