A conspiracy: the sect master was already dead?

When did she ever say she was going to run away?

Han Xi looked up at the Ghost Lord with disdain in her eyes. She had been resurrected for some time, and although she had not yet fully recovered her cultivation Cultivation Level, she could still exert the strength of the Master Realm.

How could she possibly be afraid of a mere Immortal Lord level Evil Ghost?

"Become my food!!"

The Ghost Lord's face was full of Evil smiles, and Black Qi poured down on Han Xi like a mountain.

"Click!"

With a crisp snap of the fingers, the black mist vanished without a trace, leaving the Ghost Lord stunned and bewildered.

Where is my Ghost Qi?

This was the Ghost Qi he had accumulated over countless years, and with the added enhancement of the Array Formation, it was absolutely capable of slaying any Ghost Lord level being. So why did it just vanish like that?

He tried to manipulate the Array Formation, but he couldn't sense the slightest Ghost Qi within Array Formation.

What happened?

The Ghost Lord was completely bewildered and confused. The scene before him made his brain freeze, and he couldn't react at all to what was happening.

Han Xi raised her hand and gently grabbed, and the sky-covering Ghost Lord began to shrink rapidly. Screams rang out continuously. Even if the Ghost Lord was slow to react, it knew that the two Human Race who came this time were definitely not weak.

This is a terrifying cultivator above the Immortal Lord level.

Immortal Venerable?

Or Above Immortal Venerable?

He had no idea; all the Ghost Lord knew was that he was likely doomed today.

Han Xi grabbed the Ghost Lord in her hand. The other Ghost King tried to escape without saying a word, but Han Xi waved her hand lightly, and a red vortex sucked Ghost King in and forcibly refined them.

Seeing this, Duan Wu, who was standing next to him, was dumbfounded.

So strong!!

The ability to easily slay several Ghost Kings and imprison a Ghost Lord demonstrates terrifying strength that undoubtedly belongs to Immortal Venerable.

Duanwu's breathing became a little rapid. Han Xi was already Immortal Venerable, so her husband's strength must not be bad either, at least he was Immortal Lord.

While there aren't many female cultivators who are stronger than male cultivators, there are indeed some. In Duan Wu's view, Han Xi and Su Chen are such a pair.

"Sir, spare my life!"

The Ghost Lord transformed into a small ghostly shadow, humbly pleading in Han Xi's hand, his eyes filled with fear. He suddenly regretted it; if he had known this person's strength was so terrifying, he would have pretended not to have seen the death of the Ghost King.

They even came up here to their deaths, courting their own demise.

And that grand formation!

Thinking of this, the Ghost Lord's face was filled with despair. His original self, Demonic Path cultivator, was killed by Righteous Path cultivators for the same reason.

His predecessor was also very powerful, reaching the Half-step Immortal Venerable Realm. However, he also courted death by provoking Immortal Venerable expert, and was eventually severely injured. After escaping to this place, his injuries worsened, and he ultimately perished.

Unexpectedly, he died in the same way.

The Reincarnation of Heavenly Dao is real!

Han Xi smiled contemptuously. With a slight exertion of her hand, the Ghost Lord instantly turned into black mist and disappeared, easily crushed to death by Han Xi.

She then spoke to Duan Wu.

Let's go.

Duan Wu then realized what was happening. He swallowed hard, his face full of a fawning smile, and respectfully led the way. He had originally wanted to strike up a conversation to curry favor, but seeing that Han Xi didn't seem to have any intention of talking to him, Duan Wu could only obediently shut his mouth.

Silent Ridge remained as quiet as ever, but no one knew that the terrifying Evil Ghost within had been killed. Although many remained, they were not very powerful, only at the level of Primordial Golden Immortal.

Now, any random Immortal King could turn Silent Ridge Hill upside down.

"My lord, our Qiankun Sect is just ahead."

Duan Wu spoke respectfully, pointing to the mountainside not far ahead.

He looked at the intact Qiankun Sect and breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the Liu Family had not yet made a move against the Qiankun Sect; they were probably still searching around Silent Ridge.

It's normal that the three of them left Silent Ridge quickly without being discovered.

The Liu Family probably thought they were destined to die in Silent Ridge, so their search efforts were not very strong.

However, the next moment, his expression suddenly froze, and he looked towards the mountain gate.

The two Disciples were discussing it cautiously.

"I never imagined that after just one trip out, I would return to find that even the Sect Master has changed."

"That's right. I heard that the Sect Master offended Demonic Path cultivator and has now been killed. The Great Elder was only acting as the Acting Sect Master, and now that the Sect Master is dead, only the Great Elder can become the Sect Master."

"These Demonic Path are truly despicable. Our Sect Master leader is at the half-step Immortal King Realm. If he doesn't die, he should be able to become a true Immortal King in no time. At that time, the strength of our Qiankun Sect Certain reach a new level."

Great Elder!

Duan Wu's expression immediately changed. He couldn't possibly be that naive. He had only recently been involved in an accident, and yet the Great Elder announced that he had been killed by the Demonic Path. All of this seemed rather strange.

Moreover, when he went out before, only a few people in the sect knew his whereabouts, one of whom was the Great Elder.

There were only two Immortal Kings in the Liu Family, which would normally be very difficult to kill him. However, for some reason, those two Liu Family cultivators seemed to know where he was every time, which is why he was tricked and seriously injured, and was forced to flee to Silent Ridge.

But now it seems that Duan Wu has also discovered something amiss.

While being hunted, he sent messages back to his sect to request reinforcements, a method that would expose his location.

Could it be... that the Great Elder was behind it all?

Damn it!

Duan Wu's face was extremely gloomy. It was normal for the Great Elder to covet the position of Sect Master. After all, once he became the Sect Master, he would be the king of the Qiankun Sect, and all the resources of the sect would be tilted towards Sect Master.

Duan Wu never expected that the Great Elder would be so ruthless.

If he dies, he's only Late Primordial Golden Immortal; how could he possibly protect the Qiankun Sect's legacy?

He seemed to have thought of something.

Will the Liu Family help?

Duan Wu's expression grew increasingly gloomy.

Han Xi spoke calmly, "It seems your Qiankun Sect is in trouble."

This time, Su Chen mainly accompanied Han Xi to play and let her experience the thrill of becoming a saint or ancestor, so he hardly spoke and let Han Xi take the spotlight while he played the supporting role.

Duan Wu took a deep breath and forced a smile, "Please wait a moment, sir, I will take care of this matter immediately."

Just as he was about to leave, Han Xi spoke calmly:

"This place is nice. I plan to stay here for a while. I wonder if your Qiankun Sect is lacking any Elder or the like? We two could also join in the fun."

Duan Wu suddenly stopped in his tracks, his face filled with ecstatic joy.

They originally thought Han Xi was just out having fun, but they never expected her to join their Qiankun Sect.

This is an Immortal Venerable level expert!

Even within the entire Qiankun Sect, such powerful individuals could be easily wiped out with a single finger, yet they still choose to join their Qiankun Sect.

Duan Wu was incredibly excited. This wasn't just a windfall; it was like gold falling from the sky!

With the addition of an Immortal Venerable Realm and a powerful expert of similar strength to the Qiankun Sect, their Qiankun Sect will be considered a top-tier force in the entire Southern Heaven Domain.

Even if the two of them don't take action, simply preserving the Qiankun Sect would be an immense benefit.
