Ascension of the immortal Asura
chapter-419

John's words stunned everyone in the room, before several in the Forbidden Alliance group began to laugh loudly at his words. The man standing at the front of the group narrowed his eyes as he stared at John.

"You expect me to believe such an obvious lie?" the man replied to John with a cold tone. In his eyes, John's words were basically telling him that John believed he was gullible enough to believe such a lie.

On the other side, the Honorable alliance group stared at John with great curiosity, also judging the veracity of his words. Both the lead Elder, as well as the girl behind her, stared at him with curious expressions. However, after scanning his cultivation base, even they couldn't understand how such a thing was possible.

"To be fully honest, I really don't give a fuck what you think," John sneered at the Forbidden Alliance man. In his mind, any Forbidden Alliance member was as bad as Allfiend, as the Bloodfiend Sect was a part of the Alliance.

'I started with the Bloodfiend Sect, but that's not where it ends. The Forbidden Alliance allowed the Bloodfiend Sect to rise to power without the surrounding powers being able to interfere. As far as I'm concerned, this alliance is just as guilty for Russell's death, the deaths of thousands of my clan members, and its near destruction. What I did to the Bloodfiend Sect, I'll be sure to do to their entire miserable alliance.'

"You dare speak to me in such a manner," the Forbidden Alliance leader stood up and took several steps forward towards John, his aura climbing to incredible levels.

John felt this aura wash over him, clearly intent on breaking him physically and mentally. The man raised his aura to the level that any Meridian Forging youth would crumble before, as his goal was not to kill John, but to take him down a notch.

Thunderzen frowned as he saw the man act so brazen before him, but did nothing to interfere just yet. Now that John had made his claim public, he knew John didn't want to be shielded by him at every single turn.

Thunderzen sighed slightly, as he knew this path of John's would be rife with danger, and that his life could end at any moment. However, if John was able to make it out to the other side with his life intact, his power would be at a level even he could only look up to.

This moment right now was a good chance to knock the Forbidden Alliance leader down a notch or two, and blunt any prestige or momentum he had in these discussions. Thunderzen would only interfere if John's life was on the line.

John frowned as he felt the man's aura press down on him, as the man was clearly trying to make him cower before him and make him look pathetic. Everyone else in the room looked on with mixed expressions of interest, gloating, and curiosity as to what would happen next, as the aura continued to climb and press down on John.

John's frown turned into a sneer as he mocked the man before him.

"Is this truly the extent of your power? You act so haughty towards a junior hundreds of times younger than you, and yet this is the best you can do? It seems like the Forbidden Alliance is truly a joke."

John's words shocked the entire room, and even the Honorable Alliance group had expressions of surprise on their faces. They knew the Forbidden Alliance was not only just as strong as them, but that they also had arrogant characters. Antagonizing such people would only lead to future hardships.

The man's face turned cold as he heard John's words, as his aura once again climbed to another level. It was now at the level that even a Heaven Tribulation Elder would find hard to endure, and would surely make any Meridian Forging youth crumble beneath him.

However, John stood there with a nonchalant expression on his face as he stared at the Elder. Although the pressure was starting to get a bit heavy on John, it wasn't anything he couldn't handle.

John's nonchalant attitude under the man's aura once again surprised everyone, as they could tell that he truly was fine before such a powerful aura. The Honorable Alliance leader raised her eyebrows in surprise, as she had not expected such a backwater place to have such a disciple.

Before John could mock the man once again, another powerful aura washed over the room, clashing against and wiping out the Forbidden Alliance leaders aura.

"That's enough of that," Thunderzen said to the man as his own aura retracted slowly. "You're here to discuss the Bloodfiend Sect, not bully one of my disciples. Do that again, and don't blame me for not being kind," Thunderzen said to the man with a cold tone.

John was slightly surprised to hear such a tone from Thunderzen, as Thunderzen was normally warm and kind with his words. The Forbidden Alliance man frowned at Thunderzen's words, as if he left things as is, he would be considered the joke of the assembly.

However, Thunderzen's power truly was strong, even when compared to the Divine Martial Continent, and the man couldn't do anything to antagonize him too much. He himself was just a lower representative of the Forbidden Alliance, tasked with the job of finding out what had happened to the Bloodfiend Sect.

The man grit his teeth but did not argue with Thunderzen. Instead his gaze shifted back to John, who stood calmly before him.

"You might be slightly impressive, boy, but that still doesn't mean you are capable of destroying the Bloodfiend Sect. Clearly it was Thunderzen, and you are using yourself to shield him," the man said to John.

The Forbidden Alliance wanted to pin the Bloodfiend Sects destruction on Thunderzen, so they could say he violated the ancient pact between the two alliances, and punish him accordingly.

John was able to tell what was going on as well, which was another reason why he had stepped forward and revealed the truth. He was not about to let the man who took him in and showed him kindness to suffer from his own actions.

"As I said, I really don't care what you think," John once again said to the man. "But since I don't want Thunderzen to take blame for what I did, I guess I'll have the heavens verify the truth instead."

John paused for a moment, as the rest of the room realized what he was about to do. Surprised expressions appeared on their faces as they heard him speak.

"I swear on the heavens and my Dao Heart, that the destruction of the Bloodfiend Sect was due to my own actions. While it's true that Thunderzen also fought due to the demon the Bloodfiend Sect summoned, the Bloodfiend Sect was destroyed by me far before his battle began."
