Chapter 1173: Chapter 1173: You Are Trash

“Pavilion Master, isn’t it too absurd that Mr. Guigu was able to recognize the young lord of the Dragon God Clan simply by sensing his aura?”

After Mr. Guigu departed, Tian Kui asked in astonishment.

Ying Hun’s expression was exceedingly grave as he shook his head and said, “I don’t know either. Perhaps it’s because the young lord of the Dragon God Clan ruined him back then, leaving him vengeful, and thus extremely sensitive to the young lord’s aura.”

“Mr. Guigu already suspects Wind Shadow. This is definitely not good for Wind Shadow. Now, with the Moon God Palace being ordered to hunt Wind Shadow, I fear this might be a result of Mr. Guigu’s plotting,” Tian Kui the assassin said solemnly.

“We observe and wait,” Ying Hun said, deeply furrowing his brows.

“Pavilion Master, they’ve arrived,” Tian Kui the assassin remarked, having sensed something.

Ying Hun replied, “Their target is Wind Shadow. That old monster Guigu seems uninvolved, but he’s definitely scheming from the shadows.”

“Should we eliminate them?” Tian Kui the assassin asked.

Ying Hun shook his head and said, “No need. Acting rashly will only give them an opening.”

Besides Tian Kui the assassin, powerful assassins ranked in the ‘Tian’ category, such as Tianming, had also sensed something. However, since they hadn’t received any orders, they remained quietly vigilant.

The experts dispatched by the Moon God Palace had already reached Sun Moon Lake at this moment. Instead of revealing themselves, they stayed hidden and observed.

Their objective was none other than Feng Wuchen.

Previously, the Moon God Palace and Glazed Light Sect had dispatched large numbers of guards, searching for Feng Wuchen for two months without success. As a result, they could only monitor the Tianying Pavilion to ascertain Feng Wuchen’s whereabouts.

…

Several days later, Feng Wuchen successfully consolidated his breakthrough and emerged.

With his Heavenly Monarch Realm stabilized, Feng Wuchen’s combat strength undoubtedly increased significantly.

Feng Wuchen had barely begun to rejoice when Bright Moon’s voice reached his ears, “The Moon God Palace has already sent experts to monitor the Tianying Pavilion. You’d better not go out—they’re all targeting you.”

“Monitoring the Tianying Pavilion?” Feng Wuchen was slightly startled before carefully sensing the situation, but he couldn’t detect even the slightest trace of any aura.

“Heavenly God Realm, perhaps?” Feng Wuchen frowned slightly, as only experts in the Heavenly God Realm could evade his perception.

“No, that can’t be right. If it’s mere surveillance, there’s no need to dispatch experts from the Heavenly God Realm. That would be a joke. They’re hiding well, and their strength shouldn’t be simple,” Feng Wuchen quickly dismissed the thought.

“The Pavilion Master instructed us to be extremely cautious in executing our tasks,” Bright Moon added.

Feng Wuchen chuckled indifferently and said, “No worries. I have no interest in being a coward, though they’ll have to first catch me.”

The powerful strength of the Tianying Pavilion was deterrent enough that even if Emperor Ling sent people to watch, they wouldn’t dare to act recklessly.

Not to mention Ying Hun’s terrifying power—just the assassins at the Tian Kui level alone were enough to make the Moon God Palace wary.

“Don’t underestimate them. Reportedly, the Moon God Palace sent their Grand Commander this time, who is at the late stage of the Heavenly Monarch Realm. This person is ruthless and cannot be taken lightly,” Chasing Moon’s voice sounded urgently.

“The Moon God Palace’s Grand Commander?” Feng Wuchen looked at the approaching Chasing Moon and remarked with a faint smile, “Chasing Moon, you’ve recovered well. Late Heavenly Monarch Realm—looks like you’re quite powerful.”

“Alright, I have something to attend to. I’m heading out,” Feng Wuchen said with a faint smile before flying off.

“Wind Shadow!” Chasing Moon called out just once, but Feng Wuchen had already disappeared into the distance.

“What a reckless fool,” Bright Moon muttered under his breath before turning away.

Chasing Moon was on the verge of giving chase when Qing Liu’s voice reached his ears, “Let him go.”

“Lord Heavenly Monarch,” Chasing Moon immediately bowed respectfully.

“Wind Shadow’s strength is extraordinary. He is meticulous and cautious in his actions—besides, he also possesses the Dragon God Clan’s instant movement ability. Taking him down won’t be easy. The Moon God Palace monitoring the Tianying Pavilion puts us at a disadvantage, so Wind Shadow taking the initiative is not a bad move,” Qing Liu said with a faint smile, seemingly unconcerned about Feng Wuchen’s safety.

Looking at Chasing Moon, Qing Liu continued, “Instead of worrying about him, you’d better focus on cultivating. You’re almost ready to break through to the Heavenly Monarch Realm yourself.”

“Understood!” Chasing Moon replied respectfully.

…

“Whoosh!”

Feng Wuchen flew over Sun Moon Lake, deliberately slowing his pace. His appearance immediately caught the attention of the experts monitoring him from the shadows.

“Wind Shadow! He finally showed himself!”

“As expected, hiding in the Tianying Pavilion! Chase him!”

“Don’t let Wind Shadow escape back to the Tianying Pavilion!”

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”

The hidden Moon God Palace experts around Sun Moon Lake immediately launched their pursuit at full speed the moment they spotted Feng Wuchen, streaking across the skies like light beams.

“Hmph!” Feng Wuchen smirked slightly, his speed suddenly accelerating, disappearing into the horizon in an instant.

“Courting death!” One expert, guessing Feng Wuchen’s intent to lure them away, sneered dismissively.

“Wind Shadow has detected us. Full speed ahead! Don’t let him escape!” the lead man commanded coldly, immediately increasing his pace.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”

The six Heavenly Monarch experts unleashed powerful energies and accelerated sharply.

“As expected, just Heavenly Monarch experts. So they used rune marks to conceal their auras,” Feng Wuchen thought coldly, having already sensed their presence when they started to chase after him.

The six Heavenly Monarch experts showed astonishing speed and quickly closed in on Feng Wuchen.

“Wind Shadow! You can’t escape!” the lead man shouted coldly, locking his immense energy onto Feng Wuchen.

“Wind Shadow, don’t wish for the Tianying Pavilion experts to save you. Even if they come, you won’t get away!” another Heavenly Monarch roared.

“Oh? Is that so? Perhaps they just don’t take you seriously,” Feng Wuchen glanced back with a mocking smirk.

“You’re asking for death!” the lead Heavenly Monarch roared in fury.

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”

Feng Wuchen swooped down, darting and leaping through the mountain ranges below like a nimble monkey, his figure constantly flickering with astonishing speed.

The six Heavenly Monarch experts continued their relentless pursuit.

Feng Wuchen’s pace alternated between fast and slow—just as the six were closing in, he would suddenly speed up, leaving them behind, only to slow down again shortly thereafter.

Feng Wuchen was deliberately taunting the six Heavenly Monarchs.

“Unbelievable! That brat’s speed is far too incredible!” The six Heavenly Monarchs were seething with rage, but they couldn’t catch up to Feng Wuchen despite their best efforts.

“Find a way to cut him off!” one Heavenly Monarch shouted angrily.

Six Heavenly Monarchs—three of whom were mid-stage Heavenly Monarchs—yet they couldn’t overtake Feng Wuchen, who was only at the early stage.

At that moment, Feng Wuchen suddenly stopped mid-air, hovering above a majestic waterfall cascading down like a celestial curtain.

“Do you see it? The towering mountains, flowing streams, waterfall plunging from up high—the scenery here is splendid. Using this place as your burial ground, wouldn’t you agree it’s fitting?” Feng Wuchen asked with a cold smile, his eyes brimming with killing intent as he swept his gaze across the six Heavenly Monarchs.

“Wind Shadow! Your arrogance ends here!” The mid-stage Heavenly Monarch snarled coldly, unleashing a terrifying power that emanated dangerously, his claw imbued with formidable green energy.

“Oh? Just you worthless lot?” Feng Wuchen replied, unfazed, with a look of utter contempt.

“You dare call us worthless?” one of the Heavenly Monarchs bellowed furiously.

“Whoosh!”

“You’re the worthless one!” Feng Wuchen’s figure moved like a phantom, suddenly appearing before the speaker, leaving the Heavenly Monarch trembling with fear.
