Chapter 1268 - Jiu Zang Qu Nest (1)
This light robed man named Chen Qinghai was a Great Elder of the "Ling Xiao Sword Sect". Twenty years ago, he had entered the "Ancient Clear Heaven Domain" to train.
After the invasion of Heaven's Will City, he had fled the ancient region.
Afterwards, the Heaven's Will City cultivators charged into the "Ling Xiao Sword Sect". He followed the sect head, Jiang He Xian and the others, escaping once more and hiding himself. When news of Heaven's Will City's Fifth Elder and Sixth Elder's defeat outside the Yan Yang City spread, he, Jiang He Xian and the others came to the Yan Yang City.
After the Supreme Elder Li Yin from the "Nine Star Saint Sect" became the leader of the group in Yan Yang City, Chen Qinghai took the initiative to recommend himself and became a member of the city deacons.
With his identity as the great elder of the Ling Xiao Sword Sect, being hostile to Tang Huan was also within reason.
However, the reason why he had repeatedly targeted Tang Huan just now was not only because of his status in the Ling Xiao Sword Sect, but also because he had been forced to submit to Heaven's Will City when he was in the "Ancient Clear Heaven Domain".
When he saw the nine spirits, Chen Qinghai had already confirmed Tang Huan's identity. However, he purposefully accused him of being a Heavenly Will City spy in order to enrage him.
If Tang Huan could not hold it in, Chen Qinghai could call for more cultivators.
Right now was the time to confront Heaven's Will City. If the many Void Transformation Stage cultivators were to be injured by Tang Huan, it would definitely cause even more cultivators to reject Tang Huan. Many people came to the Yan Yang City because of Tang Huan's strength, but with this, Tang Huan's appeal to the cultivators in the city would drop.
It had to be said that Chen Qinghai's calculations were not bad.
Of course, the reason why he dared to go against Tang Huan was because he was sure that Tang Huan did not dare to kill anyone under his current state. It was definitely not a wise decision to make a move against his comrades right now.
Unfortunately, he predicted wrong of Tang Huan.
Forget about him, even if Li Yin, who was rumored to be a Spirit Master of the Dao Origin Stage, were to target him, Tang Huan would not hesitate to attack him.
"A scum that defends themselves to Heavenly Will City deserves to die!"
With a cold laugh, Tang Huan glanced at the five people around him. With a clench of his fist, Chen Qinghai's soul disappeared into thin air without a trace. Through Chen Qinghai's memories, he knew that they were not Heavenly Will City spies. Their previous reactions also confirmed this point.
"Tang …" Tang Huan... You. "You …"
When he caught sight of Tang Huan's gaze, the grey robed elder cried out in shock, and his feet involuntarily retreated.
The other four people's cultivation were weaker, and when Tang Huan looked over, he felt an incomparable pressure, his face immediately became pale, and reflexively moved a few steps back, but did not even dare to breathe, as though he was about to suffocate.
"Hu!"
However, just as they were trembling in fear, the figure of Tang Huan and the nine spirits suddenly disappeared.
The gray-robed elder and the others felt as if a heavy burden had been lifted from their shoulders. Then, they began to pant heavily as if they had collapsed from exhaustion. In their hearts, they felt a sense of joy after surviving a calamity.
"He... Is he really Tang Huan? " After a long while, a black-clothed woman spoke as she forcefully suppressed the shock in her heart.
"It must be him!"
The gray-robed elder heaved a sigh of relief, "When that nine-colored Spiritual Beast came out, this old man believed that he was Tang Huan. It was rumored that back then in Nine Colors City, it was also the General Manager who was captured by him. A few months ago, outside the Yan Yang City, it was also he who was entangled with the Sixth Elder of Heaven's Will City's Yu Jiang, who was controlled by Tang Huan. With Tang Huan here, our odds of victory greatly increased, but we never expected Brother Chen to call him a spy. Tang Huan does have a deep grudge with the 'Ling Xiao Sword Sect', but now that they are facing a great enemy, what Brother Chen did is not very wise. In the end, you harmed your own life. "
As he finished speaking, the gray-robed old man couldn't help but sigh.
"Why did Tang Huan say that Deacon Chen is a spy from the Heavenly Will City?"
The girl in black could not help but ask doubtfully.
The grey robed elder's heart moved: "I heard that Tang Huan is proficient in the way of the soul. He should have been searching Brother Chen's soul for his memories just now, could it be that he truly obtained some secrets from it?"
Hearing his words, the woman in black and the others grew even more suspicious. In this period of time, there were many Void Transformation Stage cultivators that had sought refuge in Heaven's Will City.
Right now, with so many people gathered in the Yan Yang City, there was no way Heaven's Will City could possibly sit idly by. Adding sand here and sending spies was inevitable, and the most suitable person to act as a spy would naturally be the Forging God Great World's Void Transformation Cultivators who had secretly sought refuge in the Heaven's Will City.
"This old man has difficulty to understand, Chen Haiqing was originally a meticulous person, why would he be so reckless today and intentionally go against Tang Huan and Ling Xiao Sword Sect's grudge? After all, if he were to fall out with Tang Huan, it would only benefit Heaven's Will City, but if he is a spy from Heaven's Will City, then everything can be explained!"
The gray-robed elder's face was gloomy.
"Everyone, the battle with Heaven's Will City is most likely in the next few days. We should not report about what happened just now. If Yan Yang City caused an internal strife, I'm afraid our Forging God Great World would not have much hope."
The woman in black and the others nodded repeatedly, but they could not hide the worry between their brows.
Although no other cultivators had seen the situation, and when Tang Huan took action, there was not even a hint of Qi that leaked out, but, a cultivator who had turned into a void Eight Cycle cultivator had quietly disappeared, and it would not be long before they aroused their suspicions, so this matter could not be kept a secret.
Once this news was leaked, the Yan Yang City would probably be thrown into chaos.
… ….
At the foot of the Hidden Sword Mountain, Tang Huan's figure suddenly flashed.
But in the next moment, Tang Huan's face darkened. The Hidden Sword Mountain was shrouded in a layer of white mist. It had actually managed to suppress the terrifying sword intent coming from the Heavenly Sword Hall. That sword intent was the strongest trump card of the "Pure Yang Sword Sect", and now there was actually a problem!
This abnormality caused Tang Huan to feel that something was amiss.
With a thought, the "Nine Yang Divine Furnace" and "Dao Infant" in Tang Huan's Dantian started to circulate at a fast speed. In an instant, the entire Hidden Sword Mountain seemed to have entered's range of perception.
Within the mountain peak, many formidable auras were concealed.
In the current Hidden Sword Mountain, there were over a thousand Void Transformation cultivators. Almost all of them were experts at the Void Transformation Stage and the Void Transformation Stage.
The majority of the strongest cultivators were gathered in the center of the Yan Yang City, while the weaker Void Transformation Stage cultivators were all gathered around the Yan Yang City. Once Heaven's Will City quietly attacked, it would immediately cause very serious injuries and deaths.
Tang Huan frowned, and shifted his attention to the Heavenly Sword Hall at the peak of Hidden Sword Peak. Just by sensing it, Tang Huan's face turned ashen, and between his brows, fury could be seen.
"How preposterous!"
Tang Huan squeezed out these four runes from between his teeth and suddenly disappeared from the bottom of the mountain of the Hidden Sword Sect …
