Chapter 408: You
Heavenly Heart Sect.
In the silent Dadian, the Heavenly Heart Daoist sat atop it, his complexion dark, his anger well suppressed, not erupting immediately.
The Heavenly Sword True Person below could not hold back and spoke, "Senior brother, this matter cannot be settled like this; they are challenging the dignity of our Heavenly Heart Sect. All who participated must be killed, only then can we preserve the Sect's dignity."
The Heavenly Dream Daoist, rarely speaking, said, "Senior brother, junior sister agrees with what Heavenly Sword senior brother said; such matters cannot set a precedent. Yu Xuzi, our sect's nephew, is the future of the Heavenly Heart Sect. Their daring to strike Yu Xuzi is a refusal to give our Sect face."
"If those people are not punished, they do not understand the dignity of the Heavenly Heart Sect."
Yu Xuzi's death differs from Zhang Zuohuo and Fang Yue; the latter two, once dead, are simply dead. The Heavenly Heart Sect has plenty; such disciples number in the hundreds, even if not a thousand, they are not lacking at all.
Yu Xuzi is different; he is one of the Heavenly Heart Seven Sons, praised as a strong contender for future Sect Master and a candidate for that position. If lucky, he may seize it.
The Heavenly Heart Seven Sons are the youngest, most gifted and strongest disciples of the Heavenly Heart Sect. All seven are equal in strength; each has a chance to inherit the Sect Master's seat, even a secondary one would be a pillar of the Faction. They cannot die easily; ordinarily they are protected within the Sect, having already proven their worth.
Among the seven, each has endured countless perils, emerging from mountains of corpses and seas of blood. Their main task is to stay within the Faction to cultivate. This time, if there had been a suitable candidate, the Heavenly Heart Daoist would not have sent Yu Xuzi down the mountain, and the incident would not have occurred.
With his death, the Heavenly Heart Sect is as if it lost an arm.
The Heavenly Dragon Daoist coldly said, "Senior brother, let the junior brother go. This time, the junior brother must make those people understand that the Heavenly Heart Sect is not to be provoked. Anyone who provokes our Sect shall be killed without mercy."
Killing intent filled the Dadian.
The Heavenly Sword Daoist likewise erupted with murderous aura.
The Heavenly Heart Daoist pressed his hand, and only then did the murderous aura dissipate.
"Tianlian junior sister went, presumably also encountered danger."
"Yu Xuzi is dead, Tianlian junior sister is still alive, Heavenly Dragon junior brother, you go there."
The Heavenly Dragon Daoist clasped his hands, "Yes, senior brother."
The Heavenly Sword Daoist, seeing this, immediately stepped forward, clasped his hands and said, "Senior brother, I fear the Heavenly Dragon junior brother going alone is too dangerous, perhaps…"
The Heavenly Heart Daoist thought briefly; Tianlian junior sister met misfortune, and if the Heavenly Dragon junior brother goes alone, he may also fall into trouble. Having another person adds insurance.
"Fine, Heavenly Sword junior brother, you must listen more to your Heavenly Dragon junior brother's advice, and not act rashly."
The Heavenly Sword Daoist excitedly said, "Junior brother understands."
He excitedly followed, this time he intends to unleash a great slaughter.
The Heavenly Dream Daoist, somewhat worried, asked, "Senior brother, if you let the Heavenly Sword senior brother go, will it…?"
The Heavenly Sword senior brother acts rashly; once outside, the Heavenly Dragon senior brother cannot restrain him.
Once this senior brother loses his temper, no one can hold him back.
"If it doesn't hinder anything, let him cause a ruckus."
The Heavenly Heart Daoist stood, stared outside, and coldly said, "Those sects are itching to move, all wanting to tear the Heavenly Heart Sect apart. Hmph, I will not let them have their way. If they are willing to slaughter, then I will go mad with them once."
"Heavenly Dream junior sister, keep watch over the Heavenly Heart Sect; if any abnormality arises, kill without mercy."
The Heavenly Dream Daoist bowed and clasped his hands, "As you command, senior brother."
This senior brother is truly angry; Yu Xuzi was one of his disciples.
After all the effort and the disciple he prized most, he died like this.
This resentment cannot be swallowed any way.
This account must be settled.
"The Great Qi Dynasty is completely in chaos; now, who knows how much slaughter it has caused."
"The mortals' disaster has arrived."
This time, those mortals cannot avoid it; it's unknown how many mortals remain alive after this battle.
The Heavenly Dream Daoist feels some pity for those mortals, who are about to die without knowing anything.
Cultivators cannot act against mortals; it is prohibited by rule.
Beasts care not for your reasoning; outsiders are the same. When mortals die, they die. Those who have cultivated to this realm are cold and heartless, holding countless lives in their hands.
Even relatives are killed outright; let alone insignificant mortal ants.
Spirit Sword Sect.
The Lingjian Zhenren sighed, "This time, it really will fall into chaos."
"Xinran junior sister, what do you think?"
Xinran True Person spread his hands, "Senior brother, junior sister does not involve herself in these matters, nor does she wish to speculate. If they dare come to the Spirit Sword Sect, junior sister will ensure they never return."
The Lingjian Zhenren was stunned for a moment, then burst into hearty laughter.
"Hahaha, junior sister says it; junior sister now is different from before. When they see junior sister, they will definitely be scared out of their wits."
"Senior brother, you overpraise; junior sister is merely a sword‑practicing person, cannot compare to senior brother."
The Lingjian Zhenren waved his hand, "Junior sister, do not be modest; throughout the Spirit Sword Sect, perhaps only a few can match junior sister."
"Senior brother, I fear I still cannot defeat junior sister."
Elder Xinran quickly clasped his hands, "Senior brother, you speak heavily; in junior sister's heart, you are always the strongest."
"Hahaha, junior sister, your words are still so pleasant."
Elder Xinran, beside him, gave a bitter smile, his gaze unintentionally drifting to the distance.
"Chen Chuyang, you must live well, don't die."
On Longshe Shan.
Chen Chuyang smiled at Tianlian True Person, since he is Shang Hongchen's master, then he is one of our own.
For his own people, Chen Chuyang gives preferential treatment.
"This is a lady; Tianlian True Person should know her."
Tianlian True Person smiled and nodded; Shang Hongchen's sister, regarding their affairs, Tianlian knows everything. Shang Hongchen said some things, and she naturally conducted some investigation; it's not hard to see their relationship.
Shang Hongxue returned a smile, her elder sister's master naturally also has some connection with her, but she does not know how Chuyang brother intends to trap this person; in Shang Hongxue's eyes, this person is like a plump, big fat sheep.
Very plump, the kind where any cut yields meat.
Older sister's master, most suitable to trap him, cough cough cough, help.
Since you are Shang Hongchen's master, then we are our own people, Tianlian Zhenren, I see you've been poisoned; if we don't resolve it, I'm afraid you will……die.
Tianlian Zhenren understood Chen Chuyang's implied meaning, humbly asked: "I don't know if Fellow Daoist Chen Chuyang has a way to detoxify?"
Chen Chuyang laughed, the fish took the bait, what we've been waiting for is just these words of yours.
Having laid it out this long, it's just to let her relax her guard, then obediently go to the dining table.
There is a method, but……
Tianlian Zhenren anxiously asked: "Fellow Daoist, just say it, as long as it's a price I can afford, I can do anything."
