Chapter 412: Chapter 183: What’s Meant to Come Will Come (Please Subscribe)
The roaring noise persisted for a long time before it finally ceased.
The White Tiger Divine Intent, triumphant as if in victory, emitted a roaring tiger’s call to the heavens and surveyed the area, stepping across the dark red stars.
With each step it took, the stars seemed to tremble under its weight, shedding rings of dark red luminescence.
Afterward, the Divine Intent vanished, taking with it the dim demon energy and the light itself.
Night once again enveloped the forested mountain.
Through the darkness, one could still discern everything within a thousand li—
The mountains that once rose and fell had been forcibly flattened at four peaks, with the shattered rocks filling the base of the mountains.
Moreover, there were chasms that split the earth, from which faint silver-white glimmers spread.
The Sword Intent contained within them lingered long after, as if thumb-sized miniature swords were traversing the insides of the chasms.
In this devastated landscape, two Great Demons stretching dozens of zhang in length lay wounded on the ground, their bodies covered with gorges for wounds, blood flowing freely.
And that Shadow Demon had turned into a puddle of black water, the escaping demon energy and Sword Qi entangling each other and dissipating into pure spiritual energy between heaven and earth.
Chen Yi sheathed his sword and gazed down at the corpses of the three Great Demons, flicking his fingers to extract the Blood Cores from within them.
Then he turned his attention to the other side where Lou Yuhuang and others lay, also a scene of death and destruction.
The only surviving Lou Yuhuang was also seated cross-legged on the ground, weakly looking up at him.
"Sword Immortal..."
Lou Yuhuang’s hair, streaked gray and white, was scattered across his shoulders, his eyes reflecting the dim night sky and the figure of the youth surrounded by a halo of silver-white light, his heart filled with complexity.
He bore no grudge against Chen Yi, his presence there was merely to settle an old debt.
In fact, as a fellow Taoist cultivator, he was more delighted than anything to witness the rise of a Taoist Sword Immortal.
"Taizhou Mountain has gained another pillar. Hahaha..."
Having done what needed to be done, Lou Yuhuang laughed heartily and then bowed his head.
A surge of fresh blood burst from his neck, staining his black Night Clothes, and his essence dissipated.
Chen Yi quietly watched him, not taking the opportunity of these final moments to question him about Wuliang Mountain’s stance on this matter.
To him, these people who sought to assassinate him deserved death.
But Wuliang Mountain, ah...
"Congratulations, my lord, best wishes, my lord~"
At this moment, Wen Renying, her eyes bright, gazed at the Blood Core in his hand, feeling her mouth water slightly.
Chen Yi glanced at her and descended, tossing one of the Blood Cores to her.
"Bring me news of Bai Shen Sect and ’Hidden Dragon’."
Wen Renying hurriedly caught the Blood Core and thanked him with a beaming smile, "Your Excellency can rest assured, I’ll find that leader even if I have to dig three chi into the ground."
"As for the ’Hidden Dragon’, in my opinion, they must be hiding within the court or amongst officials everywhere."
"If they were roaming the Martial World, they could not possibly escape the eyes and ears of the Four Directions Building."
Chen Yi noncommittally waved his hand, indicating she could leave.
Seeing his gesture, Wen Renying said no more, happily pocketed the Blood Core, and quickly vanished.
Although her bloodline had already been purified, the Blood Core was still beneficial to her; she urgently needed Blood Cores to increase her cultivation amidst the demon energy. freewebnoveℓ.com
Once the surroundings quieted down, Cao Abao and Gu Tiangang, who had been managing the Array, finally relaxed and revealed themselves as the Array was lifted.
"The martial prowess and cultivation of the junior nephew are truly terrifying; so many Evil Demons and demons have been slain by a single sword."
Cao Abao’s thin, long face was plastered with a smile as he praised.
He reminisced about the first time he saw Chen Yi, back when Chen Yi was an inconspicuous youth following behind Zhan Hongxiu.
More than a decade later, Chen Yi had grown to such an extent.
Slaying a host of masters, Evil Demons of the Void Extreme Realm, especially those three Great Demons— their fearful aura even made him shudder.
"If Junior Brother Qing Zhou knew, he would be relieved."
Gu Tiangang felt even more emotional; after all, he was the one who discovered Chen Yi in the Capital City and was naturally aware of how frightening Chen Yi’s Sword Dao talent was.
However, he also did not anticipate that Chen Yi would elevate his Sword Dao to the Divine Power Realm at such a young age.
"I wonder if Junior Brother Qing Zhou knows... He should be aware, otherwise, he wouldn’t have headed to Taizhou Mountain with such peace of mind..."
Chen Yi looked at the two of them and bowed slightly in gratitude, "Thank you for covering the Array, Senior Uncle."
Covering the Array?
Gu Tiangang and Cao Abao exchanged glances, feeling their faces flush with heat.
If put nicely, they were covering the Array, but to speak less charitably, weren’t they just onlookers?
Gu Tiangang waved his horsetail whisk and, feigning a sigh, glanced at Lou Yuhuang’s lifeless body nearby:
"It’s unexpected that someone from Wuliang Mountain has come here, none other than the brothers of Lou Yuchun and Lou Yushan."
"Yes," agreed Cao Abao: "It’s uncertain what Wuliang Mountain will plan to do next."
The two had previously learned of Lou Yuhuang’s motives for coming here—it was not under the directive of Wuliang Mountain but due to some special reasons to assassinate Chen Yi.
Yet his identity as an elder of Wuliang Mountain and the brother of the Sect Leaders of Flipping Heaven Dao and Sea Covering Dao was indeed a fact.
If not handled well, Wuliang Mountain, ranking first amongst the Taoist sects, might develop enmity with the second-ranked Grand Void Sect.
And not to mention the Yuhua Immortal Sect, which had always been coveting both sects...
"Junior brother, keep an eye on the surroundings. I will report this matter to Brother Xiao and others to prepare them in advance."
Cao Abao nodded, greeted Chen Yi, then activated the Array to continue protecting Xiao Xuanzhen and the others.
Watching their actions, Chen Yi spread his Sword Intent, sensing everything within ten thousand li, but found nothing.
