Even though he wished for nothing more than to kill Huang Long and the others, Feng Yanshanâs expression didnât change on the surface.
Especially when he heard that Chen Xi had passed the inner court exam while taking the first position in it, the smile on his face became even warmer like a daisy that bloomed wildly beneath the raging wind.
Chen Xi couldnât help but frown when he saw this, and he said, âImmortal Monarch Feng, Iâll get straight to the point. I only want an explanation, and if Iâm dissatisfied by it, then Iâll give you one instead.â
Feng Yanshanâs heart jerked when he heard such direct words, yet he sighed instead and said, âLittle Brother Chen Xi, to tell you the truth, Iâve always lived in seclusion and shut myself from the outside world, whereas the Soulsmelt Mining Area has always been managed by my subordinate, Huang Long. If I knew all of this earlier, how could I have dared to detain your Master here?â
He was telling the truth. At any rate, Feng Yanshan was the Monarch of a continent that possessed monstrous authority, so how could he have placed his attention on an unimportant place like the Soulsmelt Mining Area?
But Chen Xi wasnât satisfied, and he said directly, âSince itâs like this, then please continue staying out of these matters and allow me to deal with these people, alright?â
Feng Yanshanâs expression turned slightly grim, and then he smiled bitterly as he cupped his hands and said, âLittle Brother Chen Xi, please show mercy. There are only four Golden Immortal Realm commanders under my command. Moreover, some of them werenât aware of the situation. So if theyâre implicated just like this, then Iâm afraidâŠâ
Chen Xi sneered in his heart and interrupted. âThen what does Immortal Monarch Feng intend to do?â
Feng Yanshanâs expression instantly turned solemn, and then he turned to look at Huang Long who was on the ground before he said in a low voice, âHuang Long, I need an explanation from you!â
His voice carried a wisp of a murderous tone. He could submit before Chen Xi, yet he was unable to tolerate his own subordinates bringing such a disaster to him.
If he hasnât rushed over in time, then these two students of Dao Emperor Academy would have almost turned their hatred onto his Immortal Monarchâs Estate as well, and he was absolutely unable to accept such a consequence.
Huang Long raised his head and said with a trembling voice, âMy Lord, Iâve always acted according to your instructions, and Iâve never deceived you.â
Slap!
Feng Yanshan waved his hand and slapped Huang Long heavily from afar. He seemed to be cold and merciless as he said, âIf you still remain stubborn, then donât blame me for punishing you!â
Huang Long let out a shrill cry while his entire body shivered from intense pain, yet he gritted his teeth tightly and was unwilling to speak.
âThereâs no need to ask him. He was put up to this by Misty Immortal Mountain.â Suddenly, Madman Liu spoke and revealed everything.
Misty Immortal Mountain?
A bright light flashed in Feng Yanshanâs eyes while the gaze he shot at Huang Long was icy cold and indifferent, and it didnât have the slightest emotion as he said, âAs a commander of the Immortal Monarchâs Estate, you colluded with Misty Immortal Mountain in secret? How audacious!â
His voice hadnât finished resounding through the air when a bang resounded. Huang Long didnât even have the chance to react before his head exploded while blood and brain sprayed into the surroundings and dyed the sky red with blood.
The other three heavily injured Golden Immortals were horrified when they saw this.
âHmph! He deserved death!â Feng Yanshan remained cold and indifferent instead, and he revealed an awe-inspiring appearance of righteousness and hating evil.
Chen Xi raised his eyes and glanced at Feng Yanshan when he saw this scene, and then he didnât say a single word before leading Madman Liu and Qi Xiaoyu away with the intention of leaving.
Xuanyuan Yun was stunned, and then he hurriedly chased up to Chen Xi and the others. âYouâre letting them off just like that?â
Chen Xi replied calmly. âLetâs go. Weâve killed enough people today.â
Feng Yanshan let out a long sigh of relief when he saw this, and then he caught up to Chen Xi as well before he revealed a benign smile and said, âLittle Brother Chen Xi, please feel free to let me know if youâre displeased with how I handled the matter.â
Chen Xi said indifferently, âI really admire Immortal Monarch Feng for placing righteousness above your own relationships.â
Feng Yanshan frowned imperceptibly before he roared with laughter and said, âBut no matter what, it was the negligence of my Immortal Monarchâs Estate that is to blame for this matter. Why donât you allow me to hold a banquet in order to apologize for the offence? Please donât refuse.â
âThereâs no need.â Chen Xi waved his hand and said, âI appreciate your kindness, but I have important matters to attend do, so I wonât disturb Immortal Monarch Feng any longer.â
As soon as he finished speaking, his figure flashed as he teleported away with Madman Liu and Qi Xiaoyu.
âHmph! All of you got easily this time!â Xuanyuan Yun glanced at Feng Yanshan before he flicked his sleeve and left.
âŠ
âThe youngsters these days are getting more and more extraordinary.â After he watched Chen Xi and the others leave, the smile on Feng Yanshanâs face gradually vanished, and he became cold and indifferent.
The three Golden Immortals crawled up from the ground and arrived by Feng Yanshanâs side before one of them asked in a low voice. âMy Lord, Huang LongâŠâ
âHmph! He deserved death!â A wisp of a vicious aura surged onto the space between Feng Yanshanâs brows when Huang Longâs name was mentioned. âHe almost got me killed. Whatâs the point of keeping such a traitor by my side?â
All the others were silent like cicadas in the winter.
âAfter all of you recuperate, go investigate exactly what Misty Immortal Mountain wanted Huang Long to do. Remember, donât alarm them. Even though Misty Immortal Mountain is far less terrifying than Dao Emperor Academy, it has existed for a very long time, and it can be traced back to the primeval timesâŠâ Feng Yanshan rubbed his chin and seemed to be lost in thought. âMost importantly, Misty Immortal Mountainâs background is extremely strange. Even the Central Immortal Court isnât clearly aware of its background, and rumors say that itâs related to one of the three great sects of the three dimensions, theâŠâ
His voice ceased abruptly when he spoke up to here, and he went silent. He seemed to not dare casually mention the name of that sect.
âŠ
Swoosh!
Space fluctuated while two figures flickered repeatedly within it.
âBrother Xuanyuan, do you know of Misty Immortal Mountainâs background?â As they traveled, Chen Xi pondered deeply for a long time before he asked abruptly.
Xuanyuan Yun seemed to be utterly unsurprised, and he said with a smile, âI knew you would ask this question.â
When he spoke up to here, he withdrew a jade slip and passed it over before he said, âThis is the information I obtained from those friends of mine after we arrived at Wind Indulgence City. The information about Misty Immortal Mountain is within it.â
Chen Xi was stunned, and he glanced at Xuanyuan Yun with surprise.
âThereâs no need to be surprised. Even though I donât like to be known as the disciple of a great clan, Iâm able to obtain many unexpected things by relying on the name of the Xuanyuan Clan. For exampleâŠinformation.â Xuanyuan Yun laughed with self-ridicule.
Chen Xi smiled as well, and then he went silent as he started to look through the jade slip.
There were 4,900 continents in the Immortal Dimension, whereas even though Misty Immortal Continent couldnât compare in reputation to the four great continents, it wasnât much inferior, and the reason was Misty Immortal Mountain.
It was an ancient sect whose origins could be traces back to the primeval times. In the history of the sect, more than one Immortal King had been born from within it. Unfortunately, in the recent tens of thousands of years, Misty Immortal Mountainâs forces were in a gradual decline, and theyâd lost their former glory.
But a lean camel was bigger than a horse. Even though Misty Immortal Mountain could be considered as a first-rate power in the Immortal Dimension, yet while it stood within Misty Immortal Continent, it was like a unique power that couldnât be compared to by any other power.
Especially in the last few hundreds of years, numerous experts had suddenly set out from Misty Immortal Mountain, and they trespassed into the Nine Radiance Sword Sect before annihilating it overnight. This incident caused a mighty uproar in the Immortal Dimension.
After all, the Nine Radiance Sword Sect was an ancient sect that was even considered to possess greater resources and reserves than Misty Immortal Mountain. But it was precisely a formidable sect like this that was annihilated overnight, and it was truly shocking.
It was that exact battle that caused Misty Immortal Mountain to rise to fame, and no one dared underestimate this ancient sect that had fallen into a decline any longer.
According to the information on the jade slip, Misty Immortal Mountain presently possessed no less than ten Saint Immortal Realm experts. As for whether it possessed experts at the Half-step Immortal King residing within it, no one dared to be sure.
So, it really was Misty Immortal Mountain that annihilated Nine Radiance Sword Sect in the Immortal DimensionâŠ
Chen Xi let out a long sigh when he finished looking through the jade slip, yet he inadvertently thought of Dao Lotus and Evil Lotus that had left the 99
th
level of the sword cave.
Evil Lotus had ascended into the Immortal Dimension after leaving all those years ago, and heâd said that he intended to kill the enemies that schemed against the Chaotic Divine Lotus all those years ago. Unfortunately, Chen Xi still hadnât heard any information about Evil Lotus until now.
Chen Xi still remembered that when Evil Lotus left all those years ago, Evil Lotus had once said that when a lotus flower appeared on the Dao Calamity Sword, then it meant that Evil Lotus had perishedâŠ
Of course, the Dao Calamity Sword still remained as it was in the past and a lotus flower pattern hadnât appeared atop it, so it proved that Evil Lotus was at least still alive.
âChen Xi, according to the information I obtained, there something strange about Misty Immortal Mountain. It seemsâŠit seems to be greatly related to one of the supreme sects of the three dimensions, the Sovereign Sect.â Suddenly, Xuanyuan Yun revealed a shocking secret.
The Sovereign Sect!
Chen Xiâs eyes narrowed. Since a long time ago, he was aware that there were three supreme sects in the three dimensions. One was Oracle Mountain, the second was Nuwaâs Dao Palace, and as for the third, he only knew it existed, yet didnât know its name.
The reason was that amongst the people he knew, no matter if it was his Little Senior Sister, Li Yang, or the tiny cauldron, theyâd never mentioned its name.
âThe Sovereign Sect is extremely mysterious, and just like Oracle Mountain and Nuwaâs Dao Palace, itâs a supreme existence in the three dimensions. Even Iâve only heard the seniors of my clan talking about it occasionally, and I know very little about it. However, the Sovereign Sect is undoubtedly formidable, unbelievably formidable. Even if others know its name, practically no one dares to mention is casually.â Xuanyuan Yun had a solemn expression, and he lowered his voice while speaking to Chen Xi via voice transmission.
âI understand.â Chen Xi nodded, yet he didnât think there was anything to feel fearful of. After all, he was a disciple of one of the three supreme sects, Oracle Mountain, so he naturally wouldnât feel that the Sovereign Sect was mysterious and terrifying.
However, Xuanyuan Yunâs words still caused his heart to feel very heavy. The Nine Radiance Sword Sect was annihilated by Misty Immortal Mountain, whereas Misty Immortal Mountain was related to the Sovereign Sect.
Could it be that the enemy who schemed against the Nine Radiance Sword Sectâs founding ancestor, the Chaotic Divine Lotus, came from the Sovereign Sect?
If itâs really like this, then Evil Lotus is in danger. Itâs one of the three great sects after all, so how could Evil Lotus be a match for it by himself?
Moreover, why did Misty Immortal Mountain instruct Huang Long to continue detaining and oppressing my Master, Liu Jianheng? What did they intend to obtain from him?
Chen Xi took a deep breath and restrained the chaotic thoughts in his mind, and his gaze recovered its calm. No matter what, it was best to think about it after he returned to the academy because at that time, he might be able to find out the truth from Liu Jianheng.
