Chapter 1232: Chapter 1232 Decision

Su Xuan’s attitude was unyielding. Since he had already made his decision, he naturally wouldn’t change it.

Su Xuan’s decision was undoubtedly fraught with peril.

What compelled him to make the decision was Feng Wuchen’s domineering and terrifying soul power.

Feng Wuchen being able to contend with Guigu’s soul power spoke volumes.

At such a young age, Feng Wuchen had already attained such profound mastery and was a Divine Grade Artifact Refiner—truly a peerless genius among geniuses. Who could imagine how fearsome Feng Wuchen might become in just a few years?

“Senior Su Xuan, if you intervene, the entire Tianshi Immortal Mansion will be implicated as well.” Feng Wuchen hurriedly transmitted his voice; he did not wish for his situation to harm Tianshi Immortal Mansion.

Even Feng Wuchen hadn’t expected Su Xuan to dare to intervene. Moreover, Feng Wuchen hoped Tianshi Immortal Mansion wouldn’t involve itself, as doing so would mark it as a rebel!

There is only one fate for rebels: death!

“Lord Feng, this isn’t just about you. Before the Heavenly Sovereign, we indeed lack the power to resist. But if we can’t even preserve the most basic dignity, then what is the point of living?” Su Xuan transmitted coldly.

Guigu disregarded the rules of the Tianshi Immortal Mansion; how could Su Xuan tolerate this?

Wasn’t the Tianshi Immortal Mansion one of the great powers of the Heavenly Realm? How could they shrink away?

Indeed, without dignity, one is no better than a slave. What meaning is there in life?

“We have endured unjust oppression for far too long. We bear humiliation only for the sake of that last shred of dignity. A man must not live without dignity, nor without backbone! To be frank, I see hope in you, Lord Feng. I hope today’s decision proves to be the right one.” Su Xuan’s voice carried a poignant air.

“Senior Su Xuan…” Su Xuan’s words immediately sent a shiver through Feng Wuchen’s body.

“Su Xuan, you’ll regret this!” Guigu said darkly.

Hearing that, Su Xuan smiled indifferently and replied, “Guigu, the Tianshi Immortal Mansion has no intention to rival you. But if you are hell-bent on stirring conflict and forcing guilt upon us, and if you’re determined to ignore the mansion’s rules, then do as you will. I, Su Xuan, still wield some influence in the Heavenly Realm. You are welcome to try me.”

By the end, Su Xuan’s tone had grown incredibly firm.

If Guigu was unwilling to show respect, Su Xuan saw no need to offer courtesy.

“Hmph! I hope you can maintain this arrogance by then!” Guigu said chillingly, clearly not expecting Su Xuan to oppose him for the sake of Feng Wuchen.

Su Xuan responded gravely, “Guigu, you forcibly barged into my Tianshi Immortal Mansion, disregarded its rules, and showed no respect whatsoever to me. Between the two of us, isn’t the presumptuous one you?”

Su Xuan’s fury had been provoked, and the two faced off in direct confrontation.

Seeing Su Xuan suddenly assert himself with such strength, the disciples of Tianshi Immortal Mansion were stunned, shaken, but also deeply satisfied.

As the mansion’s master, Su Xuan was not only a Celestial Immortal Grade Inscription Master but also held an exalted position in the Heavenly Realm. Even the eight Heavenly Emperors had to show caution, making him equal in status to Guigu.

“Wind Shadow, today is your lucky day.” No longer paying attention to Su Xuan, Guigu cast a glance at Feng Wuchen before vanishing from sight.

Today marked the complete severing of ties between Tianshi Immortal Mansion and Guigu. In the days to come, not only would Feng Wuchen face danger, but the mansion itself would be deeply embroiled as well.

“Senior Su Xuan, was this truly necessary? Guigu will never let Tianshi Immortal Mansion go.” As soon as Guigu departed, Feng Wuchen quickly spoke, feeling guilty for implicating the mansion.

“Lord Feng, you needn’t worry. That old miscreant Guigu does not dare act rashly, and besides, Tianshi Immortal Mansion is not easily trifled with either.” Su Xuan replied without a trace of concern.

In the Heavenly Realm, who among the exalted experts could be easily provoked?

After a pause, Su Xuan said respectfully, “Lord Feng, I can tell you are not an ordinary talent. I don’t know why I think so, but perhaps you possess the ability to change the fate of the Heavenly Realm.”

“Changing the fate of the Heavenly Realm? That’s easier said than done. The Divine Clan’s power is deeply entrenched, and the Heavenly Realm’s cultivators are consumed by fear of the Heavenly Sovereign. How many would dare rise against them?” Feng Wuchen responded helplessly.

“That is only because they have yet to glimpse hope. Once they see the dawn’s light, they will surely rise in resistance. Who could endure the unreasonable oppression of the Divine Clan?” Zhen Xuantong said solemnly.

Nie Guhong added, “Lord Feng, what’s done is done. Worrying now serves no purpose; who can predict what the future holds?”

“In any case, this is all because of me. Senior Su, I can’t thank you enough.” Feng Wuchen cupped his fist in gratitude.

Su Xuan had taken the risk of offending Guigu to obstruct him, earning Feng Wuchen’s deep gratitude.

To offend Guigu meant plunging the entire Tianshi Immortal Mansion into a catastrophic predicament.

“Lord Feng, you are too kind,” Su Xuan replied with a calm smile.

“I’ve inconvenienced the mansion enough today, so I won’t delay the recruitment of disciples any further. When time permits, I’ll be sure to visit again. Farewell.” Feng Wuchen said politely, cupping his fists in farewell.

“Lord Feng, take care!” Su Xuan and the others bowed respectfully.

With a single thought, Feng Wuchen executed instant movement and vanished without a trace.

Su Xuan’s decision carried unknown consequences for Tianshi Immortal Mansion, but Feng Wuchen vowed to never forget this debt of gratitude.

Even if Su Xuan had ulterior motives, he had indeed helped Feng Wuchen.

“Master, this matter concerns the survival of Tianshi Immortal Mansion. I do not know whether your decision was right or wrong, but I trust you.” Liu Canghai said.

Su Xuan replied solemnly, “I believe in Wind Shadow’s words.”

Although Su Xuan wasn’t sure of Feng Wuchen’s origins, Feng Wuchen still gave them a sense of reassurance.

…

Moon God Palace.

After leaving Tianshi Immortal Mansion, Guigu immediately rushed to Moon God Palace, his aged face filled with anger.

“Guigu!” Chi Qingshan greeted respectfully.

Chi Qingshan frowned slightly; it was evident Guigu had suffered considerable setbacks and was seething with fury.

What puzzled Chi Qingshan was who could possibly put Guigu in such a position when his cultivation was so high, even at the Celestial Immortal Grade level?

“Could it be the Divine Grade Artifact Refiner, Wind Shadow? Even Guigu can’t deal with him?” Chi Qingshan’s mind was filled with doubts.

Guigu’s face was exceedingly grim as he snarled viciously, “Tianshi Immortal Mansion has rebelled and is now marked as a group of rebels! Rebels are to be eradicated without mercy—leave none alive!”

“Tianshi Immortal Mansion?” Everyone’s expressions dramatically changed to ones of sheer terror.

Tianshi Immortal Mansion had become a rebel force?

The disciples of Moon God Palace were dumbstruck.

“Chi Qingshan! Immediately deploy people to monitor Feng Wuchen’s every move. I want his whereabouts at all times!” Guigu demanded coldly, his face exceedingly unpleasant.

“Understood!” Chi Qingshan replied respectfully.

“Su Xuan! I will never forgive you!” Guigu growled, teeth clenched in fury, his aged eyes narrowing while his dark gaze brimmed with murderous intent.

Sweeping his chilling gaze across the hall, Guigu declared icily, “Tianshi Immortal Mansion has already betrayed us and is deemed a rebel force! If Feng Wuchen is found, kill him without hesitation!”
