Chapter 1620

Inside a secret cave dwelling of the Mulong family.

Mulong Wenyi opened his eyes, saw the person before him, he did not rise, but instead rose, clasped his hands in salute: 'Greetings, Family Head.'

Mulong Tian gazed at him, the more he looked the more satisfied he became, his eyes could not hide a hint of sorrow, he sighed: 'Wenyi, no need for excessive courtesy.'

'Wenlong is dead.'

Mulong Wenyi, upon hearing this, his body trembled, his pupils contracted instantly, he stared at Mulong Tian before him, he thought he might be hallucinating, seeing the Family Head this time, he felt he had aged greatly, his whole person seemed to have grown ten years older, compared to his previous vigor, now he was just a father who had lost his son.

Mulong Wenlong's death was what a blow to Mulong Tian.

'When did this happen?' Mulong Wenyi asked, his eyes icy and merciless.

This news made his heart pause for a beat; that younger brother had also died, confirmed as the younger brother who was to be the next Family Head of the Mulong family, just like that he died.

'Not long ago, he perished in the Mangshan Mountain Range.' Mulong Tian gritted his teeth: 'Along with him also perished Mulong Neng Elder and several other elders.'

Mulong Tian told Mulong Wenyi all that had happened these days: the death of the Mulong Di Grand Elder, the death of the Mulong Ren Second Elder, and the deaths of many other elders, all related to the Mangshan Mountain Range; these elders' deaths signified that the Mulong family's strength had been halved.

In a short period, so many people were buried; the Mulong family had developed over many years to reach its present scale, yet they were all buried at once; Mulong Tian's pressure is immense, how sorrowful he is.

Otherwise, he would not have come in person himself; Mulong Wenyi knew that for this uncle to seek him out, he must have encountered disaster; otherwise, he would not lightly disturb him, the entire Mulong family would not lightly disturb him, everyone knows he is in seclusion, currently breaking through that step.

He had been in seclusion for a long time, yet there was still no movement; Mulong Tian issued an order forbidding anyone from approaching here; without his command, no one may disturb him.

Even if Mulong Di had died, they did not send anyone to inform him.

The Mulong Di Grand Elder was precisely his father.

'Has my father also perished?' Mulong Wenyi could not help but feel sorrow; quickly, he composed himself, understood what had happened these days, he looked at the Family Head before him and knew why he had sought him.

'It seems that during this time the family has experienced many events; whoever could kill my father is not simple; it must be those few demon kings of the Mangshan Mountain Range who acted.'

Mulong Tian nodded: 'Indeed, it was the demon kings led by Diewumeng who jointly killed your father; this time I wanted to interrupt Diewumeng's breakthrough, so she would perish beneath the heavenly tribulation, alas, it failed.'

'It also buried Wenlong and Mulong Neng Elder, as well as many disciples.'

This time, he miscalculated.

Several times in a row, he miscalculated; the Mangshan Mountain Range caused his judgments to err, multiple times he erred.

To be precise, the Mangshan Mountain Range is too vast; many demon beasts are too mysterious, many are beyond his knowledge, so he only knows a few demon kings.

Moreover, these demon kings' strength is greater and more uncanny than the information he received.

The rise of the Mangshan Demon Palace is enormous; without Zhangmang's suppression, these demon kings began a rapid breakthrough mode, no longer needing to fear being killed by people, nor fear attracting the Demon Emperor's attention and thus being slain.

Before, they dared not advance too quickly, for fear of being slain by Zhangmang; Zhangmang was very wary of them, and at the slightest sign, anything that could threaten his safety, Zhangmang would unhesitatingly kill them.

After Diewumeng took that position, she no longer needed to worry about this issue, so these demon kings' strength rose rapidly.

'Family Head, do you want me to take action?' Mulong Wenyi saw through Mulong Tian's heart and asked directly.

Mulong Tian shook his head: 'The current Mangshan Mountain Range is too dangerous, not suitable for… taking action; I came this time mainly to tell you what has happened these days, so you can be mentally prepared.'

At the same time, I also wanted to see if you have broken through.

That step is not so easy to break through.

They all know that Mulong Tian has little time left, the Mulong family has become weak, and many eyes are upon it.

'I understand.' Mulong Wenyi has no intention of leaving seclusion, nor will he give up halfway; he has not taken that step, so he cannot easily leave seclusion.

No one can make him leave seclusion early, let alone interrupt his cultivation.

Mulong Tian cannot either.

'Continue your secluded cultivation; I will watch over the family, no need to worry.' Mulong Tian comforted him, allowing him to break through with peace of mind.

Watching the departing Family Head's back, Mulong Wenyi's complexion gradually turned grim, his chest trembled, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

'Pfft.'

Blood spattered, his face quickly turned pallid and bloodless; Mulong Wenyi gazed at the blood on the ground and murmured: 'Father.'

'Pfft.'

He spat another mouthful of blood, Mulong Wenyi pressed hard on his chest to lessen the pain; his father had died, and even his bones were gone.

Moreover, his relatives all perished in various ways, because of the Mangshan Mountain Range, because of the Family Head's intentions, they all died.

The blow to him was too great.

Mulong Wenyi lifted his head and said coldly: 'Mangshan Mountain Range.'

'Diewumeng.'

'Deserving of death.'

On Longshe Mountain.

Qinglong Daoist saw three figures outside, familiar silhouettes: Wu Mie Zhenren and Bai Hang Holy Maiden arriving together; other Tian Du Men disciples remained outside, not daring to enter this place, otherwise they would be targeted by the Mangshan Mountain Range and then directly attacked.

Diewumeng and company ignored their intrusion; in fact, these three posed no threat to them, they were not here to cause trouble; during this breakthrough they did not act, instead they earlier showed goodwill, otherwise they would not be able to enter the Mangshan Mountain Range.

The arrival of these two people was not unexpected; the arrival of another person made Qinglong Daoist very curious.

Recalling the Lingxin Zhenren he had seen in his true form, then associating it with the Lingjian Zhenren before him, he knew this person had found their hideout and acted swiftly.

Qinglong Daoist turned back: 'Elder Xinran, you must not lose your reason.'

Before he finished speaking, Elder Xinran at his side rushed out, sword in hand, charging out of Longshe Mountain.

Tianlian Zhenren hurriedly followed, attempting to block the furious Elder Xinran, not daring to let her act.

'Elder Xinran, do not act rashly, do not move.'

'Stay calm, do not let him disturb your mind, you cannot…'

Tianlian Zhenren immediately followed her, grabbing her hand to prevent her from rushing out.

At such a time, they cannot provoke a battle, otherwise it would alert the Mangshan Demon Palace side, their presence must not be exposed, at least not openly; Diewumeng and Bai Xinlan know this, and they know they will not easily speak of it.

But if she goes out, then she will truly be exposed.
