Chapter 760: Chapter 760: Extremely Cruel Chapter 760: Chapter 760: Extremely Cruel âNinth Level of the Tianji Realm!â
âItâs Sect Master Su Li!â
âSuch a terrifying murderous aura!â
Within the Illusory Mountain Range, anyone who sensed Su Liâs fearsome murderous aura had their hearts shaking in fear and terror.
âHaving killed so many people, you still have the face to show up. Donât tell me youâre planning to silence us too?â someone said with contempt.
âI really didnât expect the Xuan Ying Sect would be such shameless villains, Iâm truly blindsided.â another person muttered under their breath.
âSwoosh swoosh swoosh!â
Several figures shot over with lightning speed, appearing above the valley.
The arrivals were Sect Master Su Li and others from the Xuan Ying Sect, a total of five Tianji Realm powerhouses, their terrifying murderous aura wildly spreading.
âHmph! Find those people for me. How dare they slander the Xuan Ying Sect; I will see them torn into ten thousand pieces!â Su Li roared in anger, venting his rage while also defending the honor of the Xuan Ying Sect.
The four other Tianji Realm powerhouses immediately scattered in all directions, but they had no idea who the culprit was, it was undoubtedly like looking for a needle in a haystack.
âSlander?â Su Liâs roar made many cultivators start to wonder.
âDo you know who is responsible? I want to confront them face-to-face!â Su Li asked the other cultivators with a stern look.
âSect Master Su, we do not know who did it. When we arrived, they were all dead, and even the Mo Ying Crystal Stones had vanished without a trace.â someone answered.
âSect Master Su, Iâve heard that it was a group of younger disciples, but as for who exactly, that remains unknown.â another person answered.
Hearing this, Su Li furrowed his eyebrows in disbelief, âYounger disciples?â
Liu Yunqing was at the Eighth level of the Tianji Realm, and there were six others at the Tianji Realm. Such a strong lineup, could a group of younger disciples really handle them?
Whoever could kill Liu Yunqing and the other six Tianji Realm powerhouses clearly possessed extraordinary strength.
Immediately, Su Li sent a message to those four high-ranking officials, to be vigilant against any young disciples.
At that time, Feng Wuchen and Liu Qingyang were still searching for the power of time, but to their disappointment, there had been not the slightest reaction from any primordial force.
âHall Master, it seems there is no power of time in the Illusory Mountain Range, and the Xuan Ying Sectâs powerhouses have already arrived. Should we leave first, so as not to waste our time?â Yi Tianqing suggested.
âBrother Feng, weâve almost searched through the entire Illusory Mountain Range, and I think thereâs probably nothing there either.â Liu Qingyang shook his head.
Feng Wuchen nodded and said, âLetâs go.â
âHall Master, thereâs a city not far to the south of the Illusory Mountain Range, we can rest there first.â Bei Dou Yan suggested.
âThat sounds good, after all this busy work, Iâm hungry too.â Feng Wuchen said with a light smile, feeling disappointed, but there were still two more places they hadnât searched.
They had not found the power of time in the Illusory Mountain Range, but they had obtained a generous amount of Mo Ying Crystal Stones, which was some consolation.
However, as Feng Wuchen and his group were about to leave, they were stopped by the Second Elder of the Xuan Ying Sect.
âHall Master, he is the Second Elder of the Xuan Ying Sect. Let me handle this. Itâs best not to stir up trouble or waste time on them.â Bei Dou Yan whispered, having thoroughly investigated the Xuan Ying Sectâs strength beforehand.
âWho are you? What are you doing in the Illusory Mountain Range? Youâd better answer honestly, or no one will leave here alive!â the Second Elder asked, furrowing his eyebrows, as his narrowed, aged eyes fiercely stared at Feng Wuchen and his group.
As Sect Master Su Li had communicated, the group of young disciples before him seemed very deliberate.
âSecond Elder, we also heard there were Mo Ying Crystal Stones, so we came to have a look. But after searching all over the mountains, we saw nothing.â Bei Dou Yan spoke up.
Seeing Second Elderâs fierce demeanor, Bei Dou Yan said, âSecond Elder couldnât possibly suspect us, right? We donât have that kind of power.â
Nangong Zhan added, âWe havenât even reached the Tianji Realm, so itâs definitely not us. Second Elder, please donât slander us.â
âThatâs true. You may go.â Second Elder frowned and nodded, dismissing his suspicions upon seeing the cultivation level of Bei Dou Yan and his group.
The one who could have killed Liu Yunqing and the others was certainly a terrifyingly strong individual, far beyond the capabilities of Bei Dou Yan and his associates.
Second Elder also failed to notice Feng Wuchen, and even if he had, without seeing Feng Wuchenâs cultivation level, he wouldnât have thought Feng Wuchen was capable.
After passing the checkpoint smoothly, Feng Wuchen and his group left and flew towards the city that Bei Dou Yan had mentioned.
However, what Feng Wuchen and his companions didnât know was that by leaving, they had brought disaster upon the residents of Qingyang Town.
Sect Master Su Li and his four subordinates had almost turned the Illusory Mountain Range upside down but hadnât found those who had killed Liu Yunqing and the young generation.
It was as if the murderer had vanished into thin air.
With the person untraceable and the Xuan Ying Crystal Stones completely missing, Sect Master Su Li was seething with rage.
The numerous strong individuals who had come searching were also extremely disappointed.
What they didnât know was that the person had already been released by Second Elder.
âSect Master Su Li, gritting his teeth in a gloomy voice, said, âQingyang Town is nearby; Liu Yunqing must have captured some people from Qingyang Town. Make them confess!â
Immediately, Second Elder and the others headed to Qingyang Town while also enveloping the entire place with a terrifying energy.
Hundreds of ordinary cultivators from Qingyang Town gathered at the town entrance, all of them wearing a fearful expression and trembling with dread.
âSpeak up! Who exactly was it? Donât try to play dumb or insane with me! I know for sure someone among you knows.â Second Elderâs thundery reprimand, filled with horrifying killing intent, covered the entirety of Qingyang Town.
No one in Qingyang Town dared to speak, not even daring to raise their heads.
The Xuan Ying Sect held a transcendent status in the Northern Profound Domain, being one of the great powers, and the common cultivators of Qingyang Town were powerless to resist.
Sect Master Su Li stepped forward, his face twisted with malice, and angrily said, âThis matter concerns the reputation of our Xuan Ying Sect. Just tell us obediently who they are, and I promise not to make things difficult for you. There might even be a substantial reward.â
âWe donât know; we really donât know,â
âWe donât know anything.â
The people of Qingyang Town desperately shook their heads in terror.
Seeing this, Sect Master Su Li completely lost his patience. With a sudden motion, he grasped through the air, and a middle-aged man was pulled toward him, frightfully struggling with all his might.
Sect Master Su Li grabbed the man by the neck and demanded menacingly, âSpeak up, who exactly was it, or Iâll kill you!â
âI⊠I donât knowâŠâ The man replied in terror and with difficulty.
âSect Master Su Li, huffing fiercely with frustration, tightened his grip abruptly, crushing the manâs neck on the spot.
He flung the manâs body away and casually summoned an old man towards him, his voice thick with malevolence, âIf you donât speak, Iâll kill you all one by one!â
In his pursuit of Feng Wuchen and the others, Sect Master Su Li was unconcerned with the consequences, even if it meant eradicating Qingyang Town. After all, no one would know it was his doing.
Sect Master Su Li executing one person after another caused increasing terror among the people of Qingyang Town; their minds went blank with no idea what to do.
Watching their townsfolk being slain one by one, despair settled upon the residents of Qingyang Town.
