"You... Who are you?"
Feng Zhu looked at Gu Chenfeng in fear and asked in a trembling voice, "Why do you know about Emperor Jiang?"
So many years have passed since the incident. How does a junior know of Emperor Jiang?
When Emperor Jiang was killed, only the elders of the Taiyi Immortal Sect knew about it; outsiders could never have known.
Could Emperor Jiang still be alive?
Impossible.
Absolutely impossible.
Feng Zhu thought fearfully, "I destroyed Emperor Jiangâs Primordial Spirit. Thereâs no way he could still be alive. Even if thereâs a Residual Soul, it couldnât have survived until now. Absolutely impossible."
"Who I am is not important," Gu Chenfeng said expressionlessly. "Whatâs important is that you give me an explanation, or Iâll make it so you canât live and canât die!"
Explanation?
What explanation could Feng Zhu possibly give?
He canât just reveal the ancient scandal in front of all the disciples, can he?
"This is a matter between Emperor Jiang and me, what does it have to do with you?" Feng Zhu shouted angrily, "A junior like you dreaming of obtaining Emperor Jiangâs legacy? Pure fantasy..."
"Pfft!"
Before Feng Zhu could finish his sentence, an incomparable terrifying aura pressure suddenly and ruthlessly crushed down, causing Feng Zhu to spurt blood from his mouth, his old face instantly turning pale as paper.
"Late Stage of Half-Immortal!" Feng Zhuâs old face suddenly changed, looking in great fear at the Demon Subduing True Immortal.
"Heâs actually at the peak of Late Stage Half-Immortal!" Several elders also looked in fear at the Demon Subduing True Immortal.
The disciples of the Taiyi Immortal Sect were left dumbfounded.
They hadnât expected that besides Wang Chongtian, there was another terrifying figure at the peak of Late Stage Half-Immortal.
The Demon Subduing True Immortal said coldly, "Answer what I ask, if you dare to speak arrogantly again, I wonât mind killing you right now."
"I..." Feng Zhu really had no idea how to explain.
However.
At this very moment.
A wild and imposing voice sounded, "If you donât know how to explain, then thereâs no need to explain."
"Ancestor!" Feng Zhu and the elders suddenly rejoiced.
"Ancestorâs voice!"
"Thatâs right! Itâs Ancestorâs voice!"
"This is great! Ancestor has arrived! Weâre saved! Theyâre doomed!"
Hearing the familiar voice, the disciples of the Taiyi Immortal Sect were overjoyed, their previous terror and despair instantly dispelled.
An extremely terrifying aura swept across the entire independent space in an instant.
"Haha! Our Ancestor has come! You are doomed!" An elder laughed excitedly.
"Ancestor of the Nine Nether, back then you canât blame me, blame Wang Chongtian instead." Feng Zhu sneered triumphantly, "Considering you are the Ancestor, I might plead with the Ancestor to spare your life later."
"Is that so?" Nine Netherâs expression didnât change at all.
"Such a quick face change." The Demon Subduing True Immortal grinned coldly, "Junior Brother Nine Nether, with such an astonishing aura, this personâs cultivation is not weak."
"Just Immortal Kingâs mid-stage, donât expect to leave alive." Nine Nether curled his lips into a cold smile, a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
With mid-stage Immortal King cultivation, Nine Nether did not even take it seriously.
"Let them see a bit of hope first." Gu Chenfeng smirked slightly, "They dared to plot against Emperor Jiang, I will demand it back tenfold and hundredfold."
Above the Taiyi Immortal Sectâs palace.
A middle-aged man appeared, the terrifying aura sweeping from him.
This person was Ji Tianchuan from Chaos Immortal Hall.
"Welcome, Ancestor!" Feng Zhu and the elders, as well as the Immortal Sect disciples, all respectfully knelt to greet.
"This Ancestor would like to see who is so bold to run wild at the Taiyi Immortal Sect." Ji Tianchuan slowly descended, his contemptuous gaze sweeping over Gu Chenfeng and the others.
Gu Chenfeng, Nine Nether, and the groupâs gaze all focused on Ji Tianchuan.
"Nine Profound Ring!" Gu Chenfeng saw the Nine Profound Ring on Ji Tianchuanâs hand at a glance.
The Nine Profound Ring was precisely Emperor Jiangâs Storage Ring.
Feng Zhu immediately greeted respectfully, "Ancestor, they are from the Taiyi Divine Hall, the one is Ancestor of the Taiyi Divine Hall, Nine Nether, also from the Immortal Realm."
"Oh? From the Immortal Realm? Ancestor of the Taiyi Divine Hall?" Ji Tianchuan was slightly surprised, his gaze turned to Nine Nether, his brows furrowing as he speculated, "Could you be the Hall Master of the Taiyi Divine Hall in the Immortal Realm?"
"Correct." Nine Nether answered coldly.
"A mere third-rate force, you actually have the capability to come to the Lower Realm." Ji Tianchuan sneered disdainfully, "This Ancestor comes from the Chaos Immortal Hall, you presumably know what kind of existence that is."
"Offending the Chaos Immortal Hall, you should know the consequences. To put it lightly, you will die. To say it harshly, thereâs no need for the Taiyi Divine Hall in the Immortal Realm to exist anymore."
"Since weâre both from the Immortal Realm, I advise you not to interfere."
"What if I insist on intervening?" Nine Nether smirked slightly, unfazed by Ji Tianchuan.
An elder pointed at Nine Nether and shouted angrily, "Still so arrogant on the verge of death."
"If you insist on intervening, then itâs death." Ji Tianchuan suddenly turned fierce, a chilling murderous aura erupted, immediately enveloping the entire independent space.
"If youâre not afraid of the Immortal Realm Envoy noticing, you can try." Nine Nether coldly smiled, not considering Ji Tianchuan at all.
"Buzz buzz!"
A powerful Immortal Power abruptly erupted from Ji Tianchuanâs body, and the already cracked independent space completely collapsed.
"Do you think Iâm afraid?" Ji Tianchuan used action to show Nine Nether.
The terrifying aura locked onto the space, Ji Tianchuan sneered again, "I am at mid-stage Immortal King realm, do you think I care about someone who ascended from the Mortal Realm? Killing you is as easy as flipping a palm."
"Since youâre not afraid, I have nothing to fear either. A mere mid-stage Immortal King is nothing to me!" Nine Nether coldly laughed, his lips curved into a gloating smile.
"Buzz buzz!"
As the voice fell, Nine Netherâs aura suddenly changed, a more terrifying Immortal Power erupted, the unparalleled aura sweeping with destructive force.
Feeling Nine Netherâs terrifying aura, Ji Tianchuanâs face changed dramatically, he couldnât help but exclaim, "What? Late-stage Immortal King!"
Nine Nether smirked playfully, "What? You know of the Taiyi Divine Hallâs existence, but donât know my cultivation?"
"Nine Nether Ancestorâs aura is even more terrifying than Ancestor!" Feng Zhuâs triumphant old face suddenly stiffened, intense fear surged in his heart once again.
"How is this possible..." The Immortal Sect elders were extremely terrified, their eyes about to fly out.
They simply couldnât believe that Nine Nether, who ascended from the Cultivation Realm, had cultivation surpassing Ji Tianchuan.
"Regarding Emperor Jiangâs matter, you canât escape the responsibility, I donât care what your origins are, today you wonât live to return to the Immortal Realm!" Nine Nether said fiercely, the terrifying aura pressure mercilessly crushing Ji Tianchuan.
"Such terrifying aura!" Ji Tianchuan thought in terror, "His power far exceeds mine."
Ji Tianchuan panicked to the extreme, about to flee.
"You canât escape, a mere mid-stage Immortal King, killing you is just one sword strike." Nine Nether said fiercely, preparing to unleash his Immortal Sword.
