Chapter 269: The Wrath of the Black Evil Palace
"Damn it."
Watching his daughter Taohua Shangren depart, Wuji Daoren felt increasingly sorrowful, feeling that his beloved daughter had completely distanced herself from him, yet he was helpless to do anything about it.
Whoosh!
At this moment, a man in black appeared before Wuji Daoren, his aura seemingly merged with the Void, as if his presence had vanished entirely.
He was Wuji Daoren's trusted subordinate, Liufeng Daoren, and the leader of the Wuji Alliance's largest intelligence organization.
His cultivation had reached the Nascent Soul Middle Stage.
"You investigated that boy; what is your impression? Is he a man worthy of trust?"
Wuji Daoren asked.
Ever since he learned of Zhou Sui's existence, he had immediately dispatched Liufeng Daoren to investigate information regarding Zhou Sui.
After all, this was the man his daughter liked; how could he not investigate him thoroughly?
"To be honest, this Zhou Sui is very mysterious."
"Although he has several Dao Companions by his side, he is not a philanderer."
"He spends his years in bitter cultivation on Xianxia Peak and rarely descends the mountain."
"It is said he is a Loose Cultivator by origin, and only managed to advance to Foundation Establishment by hooking up with the Xianxia Sect Sect Master, Leng Yuexi."
"Moreover, this person has immense charm; several Golden Core female cultivators have willingly surrendered themselves to him."
"Even the newly ascended Nascent Soul female cultivator, Lin Yazhu, is his Dao Companion."
"It can be said that he is the true master of Xianxia City."
Liufeng Daoren said in a deep voice, relaying the various intelligence he had gathered.
To tell the truth, he was very interested in Zhou Sui, feeling that this man was unfathomable and seemed to harbor great secrets.
"This is merely common information."
"Anyone could find this out; did you not get close to that boy to uncover more hidden news?"
Wuji Daoren was quite displeased.
"I also wanted to get close to Xianxia Peak."
"But when I approached, I had an ominous premonition."
"It felt as if entering Xianxia Peak would mean certain death, so I chose to give up."
Liufeng Daoren said helplessly.
He had also wanted to delve deep into Xianxia Peak to investigate.
But he discovered that he had underestimated this place; the Divination Art he practiced could provide Precognition of good or bad fortune.
Every time he encountered a life-or-death crisis, this art would warn him.
Relying on this art, he had lost count of how many life-or-death crises he had dodged.
This time, approaching Xianxia Peak made him shudder, as if disaster were imminent.
Thus, he made a prompt decision to flee rapidly, never daring to approach again.
"What do you mean?"
"Could it be that even you cannot handle this Xianxia Peak?"
Wuji Daoren was immediately shocked and found it hard to believe; he knew Liufeng Daoren's abilities well—if he wanted to escape, even he himself could not stop him.
Yet now, this fellow was actually afraid to approach Xianxia Peak, which was truly inconceivable.
"That is correct. Previously, I was still wondering why I had such a premonition."
"But after learning that Feilian Laozu and Huoyun Laozu had died, I finally understood."
"That sea area is set up with a Fourth-tier High-grade Array, possessing infinite power."
"If I had alerted the Cultivators of Xianxia Peak, I would certainly have been left there for good."
"Even though I have Mastery of Evasion Technique, it would have been to no avail."
Liufeng Daoren stated his conjecture.
"A Fourth-tier High-grade Array? Does this Xianxia Sect truly possess such a foundation?"
"Or did they accidentally discover an ancient ruin and master that Fourth-tier Array?"
Wuji Daoren found it hard to believe.
Because a Fourth-tier High-grade Array was the strongest array in the current Canglan Sea; even the array levels at the headquarters of the five great Nascent Soul powers were only Fourth-tier High-grade.
Relying on this Fourth-tier High-grade Array, one could withstand thousands of troops and horses, ensuring the foundation remained secure for ten thousand years.
One could imagine how formidable such an array was; it was absolutely extraordinary.
Even he himself would not dare to intrude into such an array.
A moment of carelessness would result in death and the dissipation of one's soul.
"I am not sure, but what I can confirm is that the Fourth-tier Array has been completely mastered by them."
"And the Array Master who controls the Fourth-tier Array is none other than Zhou Sui."
"This person's Array Formation cultivation is remarkable; perhaps he has already reached the level of a Fourth-tier Array Master."
"The previous deaths of Feilian Laozu and Huoyun Laozu may have been secretly assisted by this person."
Liufeng Daoren said in a deep voice.
"In that case, this fellow is indeed not as simple as I imagined."
"No wonder he could gain the favor of so many female cultivators who took the initiative to pursue him."
Wuji Daoren raised his eyebrows; his approval of Zhou Sui had risen slightly.
This was the reality of the Immortal Cultivation World.
Those with strength would always earn respect.
If one possesses the cultivation of a Fourth-tier Array Master, then their strength and status are comparable to a Nascent Soul Ancestor.
"Alliance Leader, I think you had better not concern yourself with this matter."
"Your daughter is already over five hundred years old; which man she likes is her own business, why interfere so much?"
Liufeng Daoren said helplessly.
"Shut up, so what if she is over five hundred years old? Even if she were a thousand, she would still be my daughter."
"But let's forget it for now, deal with that group of Sea Clan Cultivators first."
"Once that group of Sea Clan Nascent Souls is resolved, then we can talk to that brat."
Wuji Daoren gritted his teeth.
…………
At this very moment, Black Fiend Hall.
Numerous Nascent Soul Ancestors gathered together, their expressions grave.
"Damn it, those two pieces of trash Feilian Laozu and Huoyun Laozu were actually slaughtered by a newly ascended Nascent Soul female cultivator from the Wuji Alliance; they even had the nerve to boast in front of me about how powerful their combat strength was."
The Hall Master of Black Fiend Hall cursed loudly, extremely angry.
Because up until now, Black Fiend Hall has already lost four Nascent Souls.
Even for a Nascent Soul Sect like theirs, this is an extremely heavy loss that will create many power vacuums.
It cannot be made up for in a short period of time.
"Hall Master, what should we do now? Should we retaliate against the Wuji Alliance?"
A Nascent Soul Ancestor asked.
"Retaliate my ass, is now the time to retaliate against the Wuji Alliance?"
"The relic of the ancient sect Kurong Sect has appeared, and this is a great opportunity for us."
"In an ancient relic like this, there must be a large amount of Treasure."
"Perhaps there even exists Spirit Severing Spiritual Medicine that can help us ascend to Transformation God."
"Starting a war with the Wuji Alliance now would only benefit other sects."
"Moreover, even if we successfully retaliated against the Wuji Alliance, we wouldn't gain much benefit; it would just be venting our anger."
"This has no meaning at all."
The tone of the Black Fiend Hall Hall Master was very cruel; he was never a person to be blinded by rage, knowing what was of primary importance.
Even though four Yuan Infant Elders had died, he could still let it go just like that; everything was for the sake of major interests.
Now, there is no interest greater than the Kurong Sect relic.
"That is correct. If our Black Fiend Hall can obtain Spirit Severing Spiritual Medicine from that Transformation God Relic, as long as a Transformation God is born in our Black Fiend Hall, we could immediately sweep across the entire Canglan Sea."
"By then, let alone destroying the Wuji Alliance, even unifying the Canglan Sea would not be much of a problem."
"Our most important goal right now is still that Transformation God Relic."
The many Yuan Infant Elders of Black Fiend Hall discussed among themselves.
Every one of them revealed an excited expression on their faces; for them, this was also an unprecedented opportunity.
Therefore, no matter what, they would absolutely not miss it.
As Demon Sect Cultivators, they were cold-blooded by nature, so naturally, they would not feel anything regarding the deaths of Feilian Laozu and the others.
If they really wanted to retaliate against the Wuji Alliance, that would just be an excuse to start a war.
But now that the benefits are insufficient, retaliating would be more trouble than it is worth, so they do not want to retaliate.
Continuing the ten-thousand-word burst today, if you book friends still have monthly tickets, you can all cast them for this book.
