Chapter 56: with translation of chapter title

Everyone gazed at Su Chen with solemn expressions.

Waiting for Su Chen's order: "Second Sister, you and Mother take these two Saint-grade Profound Weapons, then grab ten Thunderfire Talismans and straight attack the Ye family's main gate! If you encounter a Martial Sovereign Realm expert, retreat; those below Martial Ancestor Realm, just fight!"

"Black Dragon, take the Black Panther to Purple Yang Sect, don't alert anyone else, secretly infiltrate, at the fastest speed, bring Liu Liyan out of Qianyuan City, you must protect her well, not letting her suffer the slightest harm."

"Black Dog, lead the remaining disciples, follow me, charge into the Azure Void Sect and rescue Sect Master Liu!"

"Divide into three groups, set out simultaneously, we must rendezvous by the hour of Chen at Wanmai Mountain!"

A single command was given.

Every face showed an irrepressible excitement and exhilaration.

For some reason, the spiritual treasures and talismans in their hands completely dispelled the unease and fear deep in their hearts.

In their place came the confidence of fighting with one's back to the water.

Because beforehand, the Young Master had taught them a joint-attack sword formation; even if they encountered a Martial Sovereign Realm expert, they still had the strength to fight.

Moreover, they had learned how to use the Thunderfire Talisman, which could directly summon a heavenly thunderbolt; within a ten-li radius, any Martial Ancestor Realm cultivator would either die or be injured.

Even the Ye family's protective grand array, laid down by a sixth-grade spiritual array master from the Eastern Wasteland array clan, could be blasted open in an instant.

With so many terrifying weapons of mass destruction, what worry is there about not reaching Cloud Sea City?

"Move out!"

"Little brother, be careful yourself; I used the Breakthrough Pill you gave me, and I am also at the Martial Ancestor Realm. Now I have these talismans and a pile of Rejuvenation Pills for healing; Mother and I will definitely not hold you back." Second Sister Su Lingxue pressed her lips, tightly gripping her Natal Flying Sword in hand, leading two disciples straight toward the teleportation array.

Black Dragon and Black Dog exchanged a glance, likewise holding spiritual treasures, clutching talismans, and rushed straight to Purple Yang Sect.

Meanwhile, Su Chen led the remaining disciples to the Black Water Prison of the Azure Void Sect to rescue people.

Sect Master Liu had ruined everything for the future of the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect; even without mentioning that the other party was his future mother-in-law, even without that relation, just because of Sect Master Liu's kindness to the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect, he could not stand by and do nothing.

The forces split into three routes.

When the five hundred disciples of the Azure Void Sect descended upon the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect, they were shocked to find it completely empty.

"Where are the people?!"

The furious chief senior disciple of the Azure Void Sect, leading the team, split open the gate of the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect, even went to the sect's treasury, not seeing even a single spiritual treasure, let alone a low-grade spiritual stone.

It was like a locust swarm passing through, leaving not even a single decoration behind.

The chief senior brother wore an expression as if he had seen a ghost, and flew into a rage: "Impossible! Even taking the teleportation array from the Azure Void Sect, even if separated by thousands of li, it would take no more than the time to finish a cup of tea!"

"Even if it only took a moment for the people to disappear, that would be forgivable, but everything in the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect—even if it were storage rings—would at least require a Heaven-grade Cosmos Bag to be emptied."

The chief senior brother was both furious and angry!

At that moment.

Several figures flashed past in the darkness.

The Ye family's hidden guards lurking in the shadows finally dared to show themselves.

After witnessing the terror of Su Chen's Thunderfire Talisman in his hand, the head of the hidden guards felt both shock and panic, his heart churning with huge waves; not to mention showing himself to stop Su Chen, he didn't even dare to breathe.

He even suspected… that Su Chen had long sensed them with his keen spiritual awareness, merely considering them a few insignificant shrimps, afraid to dirty his hands.

At the same time, he secretly felt relieved.

He was relieved that the Medicine King had fled far away; they were still a considerable distance from him, otherwise that heavenly tribulation lightning might have swept them away as well.

"Is it you?" the chief senior brother said with a grim face, looking at the head of the hidden guards, pointing at the empty sect treasury and asking: "You have been ordered by the Young Master to constantly monitor every move of the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect; tell me, what is going on?"

"What about the disciples and elders of the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect?"

"What about the spiritual treasures, spiritual stones, and medicinal pills in the sect treasury?!"

"What on earth is going on?"

The head of the hidden guards glanced around with a complex expression, some faces devoid of light, saying: "The Heavenly Profound Dao Sect's treasury, as well as all spiritual treasures within the sect, were already moved by Su Chen's arrangement in the afternoon."

"They must possess something akin to a small world refined by a Martial Saint Realm elder, that is, a Heaven-grade Cosmos Bag; otherwise, with so many items, merely a few cubic storage rings could not carry them away."

"Moreover, moreover, Su Chen… their sect is currently estimated to be heading toward the Black Heaven Water Prison of the Azure Void Sect."

"What?! They escaped the sect?" The chief senior brother's forehead veins bulged as he angrily gripped his Natal Flying Sword tighter: "As a hidden guard, why didn't you intervene to stop them, instead letting them leave? Do you not know you've ruined the Young Master's grand plan!"

The head of the hidden guards also wanted to intercept.

But those talismans are either for translocation or Thunderfire Talismans, or for speed enhancement; their power is extraordinary, and there are even Saint-grade Profound Weapons—what is he, a mere Martial Ancestor Realm cultivator, supposed to do, go up there and be slaughtered like vegetables?

The more the head of the hidden guards thought, the stronger the dread welled up in his heart, even his voice grew hollow: "No… it's not that we didn't want to intercept, but rather the mysterious talisman-crafters, pill-crafters, artifact-crafters, and array masters behind the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect."

"Especially those talismans, from a few hundred li away they can summon a heavenly thunderbolt that kills instantly, and after death the body still burns with strange flames."

"Moreover, there are Breakthrough Pills, seventh-grade Breakthrough Pills, which can let a Martial Ancestor Realm cultivator instantly ascend to Martial Sovereign Realm, without draining any potential, with no side effects, and they are three-pattern perfect-grade medicinal pills."

"Chief Senior Brother… you must not disbelieve; everything I say is what I have personally seen and heard."

The chief senior brother really did not believe it.

Not only did he disbelieve that the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect possessed a delicate small world left behind by a deceased Martial Saint Realm expert, he also refused to believe that Su Chen had any seventh-grade perfect-grade Breakthrough Pill.

He is, after all, the chief senior elder of the Azure Void Sect—what great storms hasn't he seen? Would he believe such baseless talk?

"Huh? Really?" the chief senior brother's face was full of disdain and mockery.

His gaze toward the head of the hidden guards revealed traces of contempt, as if mocking the Ye family's hidden guards as nothing but cowardly wretches who cling to life and fear death.

Truly incomprehensible—why would Young Master Ye Xuan allow such incompetent lackeys to secretly monitor the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect? Perhaps it's precisely because they reveal their shortcomings, giving the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect a chance to prepare.

He, as the chief senior, is truly the strongest.

Without the Young Master's support, the Ye family produces nothing but worthless trash.

"As this chief senior, I have trained for so long and have never heard of a talisman crafter in the Eastern Wasteland, let alone a seventh-grade pill master; where could this seventh-grade Breakthrough Pill come from? Clearly, it's your Ye family's hidden guards leaking information, alerting the Heavenly Profound Dao Sect."

"What kind of person is Su Chen? A spoiled brat who only knows how to fawn over women's behinds, a notorious good-for-nothing in the Eastern Wasteland, his entire cultivation is just piled up from medicinal resources, his foundation is floating, his combat experience zero—a weakling."

"Him? Still possessing Saint-grade Profound Weapons and Thunderfire Talismans?"

"Spouting such lies to cover up your timid, death-fearing nature? Indeed, the Ye family, having left the Young Master, amounts to nothing!" The chief senior brother spoke bluntly.
