Intercepting the Enemy
Golden Flame Sect, a Quiet Manor.
Master Golden Flame and Lv Yue were sitting in a Cyan Stone Pavilion, talking about something, their expressions solemn.
"What! Fellow Daoist Chen has been killed! Do you know his name?"
Lv Yue frowned, feeling somewhat uneasy.
"I heard his surname is Yu. He said Chen He killed his closest relative, and he came here for revenge."
Master Golden Flame frowned and said.
The Golden Flame Sect has been established for decades, and after such a long period of development, its hands are naturally stained with the blood of other cultivators.
"Chen He has killed many cultivators, and it's quite possible he even killed his closest relatives. But this matter can't be that simple! Could it be the Tang Clan's doing?"
Lv Yue guessed.
"It really is the Tang Clan. They've directly attacked the Golden Flame Sect; they won't be targeting Chen He."
Master Golden Flame said, as if he had thought of something, "Perhaps the other party is targeting our Golden Flame Sect and is saying this on purpose to lower our guard."
"If that's the case, then it makes sense. The Wei Clan? The Liu Clan? Or the Mystic Cyan Temple?"
Lv Yue guessed.
Over the years, the Golden Flame Sect has clashed with many forces and has many enemies.
"That possibility cannot be ruled out. I have already given orders to increase vigilance among my men."
"Master Golden Flame said."
He took out a golden Communication Disk, cast a spell, and a panicked male voice rang out. "Sect Master, something terrible has happened! The Wei Clan, the Liu Clan, and several other forces are planning to join forces against our Golden Flame Sect!"
When a wall falls, everyone pushes it down. The Wei Clan sent people to contact the leaders of other forces to discuss dealing with the Golden Flame Sect. These forces were initially unwilling, but when news of Chen He's death came, they immediately agreed to cooperate, mobilized their troops, and prepared to deal with the Golden Flame Sect.
The Golden Flame Sect had spies within some factions who, upon learning of this, immediately reported it.
"What! Is the news true?"
Master Golden Flame frowned and said.
"Absolutely true, this is news sent back by multiple spies."
The man reported.
"Understood. Keep a close watch on their movements. Report immediately if they make any further moves."
"This is Master Golden Flame instructed."
"Yes, Sect Master."
The man agreed.
Master Golden Flame frowned. Golden Flame Sect has been established for so long, and it has indeed made enemies with many forces. Core Formation Cultivator will at most spar with each other, but there will be no life-or-death battles. Mainly, there is no huge benefit to be gained, so it is not worth doing so.
The situation is different now. Chen He was killed by the enemy in the Marketplace, which clearly means someone is targeting them.
"It seems the lady guessed correctly; the enemy is coming for us. For now, we can only avoid their advance and leave Wei Kingdom."
"Master Golden Flame said."
If this place doesn't want me, there are plenty of other places that will. With two Core Formation Cultivator here, I can find a place to settle down in other countries. Staying in the Wei Kingdom is too risky.
The Golden Flame Sect did not control a single Third Rank mine, only a few Second Rank Mineral Vein, so they felt no reluctance in leaving the Wei Kingdom.
"Then give the order: take most of the disciples and retreat to another place to survive."
"That's what Lv Yue said."
"No, just take a small number of elite troops; leave the rest to mislead the enemy."
"Master Golden Flame said in a deep voice."
"Better to die than to die myself," so the remaining disciples were naturally abandoned.
As long as they don't die, there are plenty of Foundation Establishment Cultivator willing to become their disciples.
"Even if we take the elite troops, they are scattered in various places, and it will take some time to bring them all back."
"That's what Lv Yue said."
"That's easy. We'll announce that we're personally leading the team, with our elite troops going to the front lines to fight the enemy to the death. This way, we can mobilize our elite troops and temporarily intimidate other forces. By the time they realize what's happening, we'll have already left Wei Kingdom."
"Master Golden Flame said."
"This plan is brilliant! Let's do it!"
Lv Yue gave the instructions.
Soon, the order from Master Golden Flame was relayed: Master Golden Flame wanted to avenge Chen He, and he and Lv Yue would personally lead a team to the front lines to fight the enemy to the death.
Upon learning this news, the disciples of the Golden Flame Sect were greatly encouraged and prepared to fight to the death against the enemy.
Green Python Valley a secluded Blue-tiled Courtyard with blue tiles, containing a two-story Blue Pavilion and a Blue Stone Pavilion.
Shen Long sat in the Blue Stone Pavilion, his face gloomy.
He took Chen He to an underground cave and tortured him severely. Chen He refused to say where he had seen his parents, which was understandable, as Chen He knew he was going to die.
Seeing this, Shen Long killed Chen He, then revealed his true form, concealed his aura, and swaggered into the Green Python Valley.
As long as the Core Formation Cultivator Core Formation Cultivator the Golden Flame Sect Golden Flame Sect, he will once again strike to kill them.
Even if the Core Formation Cultivator of the Golden Flame Sect don't come to the Green Python Valley, it doesn't matter. When the Wei Clan family and other forces learn of Chen He's death, they will definitely join forces to deal with the Golden Flame Sect. At that time, Shen Long and the other Core Formation Cultivator will work together to kill Master Golden Flame and Lv Yue.
When Chen He saw the portraits of Shen Long's parents, his expression changed. Clearly, he had met Shen Long's parents and remembered them vividly. How could they remember them so clearly after all these decades? If Shen Long had mistaken the murderer for someone else, then judging from Chen He's actions, he was the murderer.
Shen Long felt a powerful Divine Sense sweep over him, and his brows furrowed slightly.
Shen Long changed his appearance and flew into the sky, where he saw a golden flying boat. Master Golden Flame, Lv Yue, and dozens of other cultivators were standing on the Golden Flying Boat.
Who are you?
When Master Golden Flame saw Shen Long, he had a bad feeling.
They left the General Headquarters, intending to take the disciples and valuables of the Green Python Valley with them, and then leave Wei Kingdom together. Could the murderer have accomplices?
"I am passing through this area and am looking for two cultivators. I wonder if you two have seen them?"
As Shen Long spoke, he took out two scrolls, infused each with a spell, and the scrolls unfurled in mid-air, revealing portraits of his parents.
When Master Golden Flame and Lv Yue saw the portrait, their eyes simultaneously revealed surprise.
Who exactly are you?
Lv Yue scolded.
Master Golden Flame is at the Core Formation Mid Stage, Lv Yue is at the early stage of Core Formation, while Shen Long is only at the early stage of Core Formation.
"Who I am is irrelevant. It seems you know them; they are my parents. Will you confess yourselves, or should I handle this personally?"
Shen Long's tone was cold.
Master Golden Flame and Lv Yue exchanged a glance, then transformed into two Escape Light and sped away at great speed.
Shen Long snorted coldly and transformed into a Escape Light to give chase, but Master Golden Flame and Lv Yue were even faster.
After chasing for thirty miles, Shen Long released the Golden-Winged Wind Peng. His body radiated a dazzling spiritual light, and he merged with the Golden-Winged Wind Peng, rapidly raising his aura to the Core Formation Mid Stage. A pair of Golden Feather Wings grew from his back.
With a gentle flap of its Golden Feather Wings, it vanished from its spot— Wind Evasion Technique.
A hundred miles away, Master Golden Flame and Lv Yue were moving very fast, their brows furrowed.
"After all these years, their descendants have actually come knocking on our door."
Master Golden Flame frowned and said.
"With our strength, we might not be no match for him. There's no need to run away!"
"That's what Lv Yue said."
"He dared to come alone, he must have something to rely on. We should be cautious. Forget about those disciples, let's lay low for a while."
"Master Golden Flame said."
A gust of wind blew by, and Shen Long appeared, blocking their path.
