Lower Immortal Realm.
Su Chen lay leisurely in the wicker chair, basking in the sun with his eyes closed.
A slight smile played on his lips. "It's been so long since I've enjoyed this much sunshine."
As he spoke, he opened his eyes and looked at Ye Lingxi, who was breaking through in the distance.
At this moment, the aura emanating from Ye Lingxi was becoming increasingly terrifying, with terrifying and Invincible Sword Intent swirling around her, making her extremely frightening.
Su Chen looked at Ye Lingxi and laughed, "I feel that this girl's talent for cultivation is even stronger than Lin Fan's, the Child of Fortune of destiny."
After saying that, he smiled and shook his head, "As expected of my sister, her cultivation talent is just as monstrous as mine."
You're shameless.
The system, which had been silent for a long time, suddenly spoke up.
Su Chen's face darkened. "System, what do you mean by this?"
Have you ever practiced cultivation?
The system suddenly asked.
Su Chen's face stiffened. "Well... it seems not."
How dare you say that?
The system's tone clearly conveyed a sense of speechlessness.
Su Chen smiled and did not refute.
He has never cultivated since birth; his cultivation level has always been increased by the system.
So, would you say he's cheating?
Su Chen laughed and said, "System, you know what, it's really great to have you. Without you, I would have had a miserable cultivation experience."
[Hmph, you know that much.]
"Ha ha!"
Su Chen laughed heartily, amused by the system's arrogant tone.
He shook his head, stopped talking to the system, and looked at Hu Xiaotian.
Hu Xiaotian lay in the air with his eyes closed, emanating the divine beast power that only divine beasts possess. Moreover, his aura was surging wildly, causing the surrounding space and time to tremble violently, which was extremely terrifying.
Su Chen looked at Hu Xiaotian and said helplessly, "I wonder if Xiaotian would break down if he knew what happened to the Qingqiu Clan."
With that, he sighed deeply, then shook his head and said, "Fine, let's go to the Qingqiu Clan with him later, so he won't be bullied."
Meanwhile, on the other side...
Wu Yuanzhou and a group of the Wu Clan elders emerged from the secret realm.
At this moment, none of them looked too good.
Wu Yuanzhou said with a gloomy face, "Who was it? How could they take that divine artifact so quickly!"
His heart bled as he finished speaking.
He paid a huge price to obtain the location of the secret realm.
He originally thought he was certain to obtain that divine artifact, but when he arrived at the secret realm, he discovered that the artifact was gone!
It's gone!
That divine artifact is gone!
This made him extremely upset.
With most of the Wu Clan's treasure trove lost, how could he not be heartbroken?
The Second Elder then asked in a deep voice, "Clan leader, what should we do next? That divine artifact should have been taken by one of those three forces."
Wu Yuanzhou clenched his fists, his eyes filled with resentment.
How could he not know that, apart from those three forces, who else could arrive here before him and take away that divine artifact?
At this moment, he felt extremely unwilling.
If that divine artifact falls into the hands of those three forces, then from now on, the Wu Clan will still have to depend on others!
His Wu Clan will still be suppressed by those three forces!
But what good is his resentment now that everything is gone?
He took a deep breath and then released his Divine Sense Divine Sense, which instantly enveloped an area of millions of miles.
Wu Yuanzhou frowned because he spotted Su Chen and his group. When he saw Ye Lingxi, his eyes suddenly flashed with murderous intent.
The Second Elder, who was standing nearby, noticed that something was wrong with Wu Yuanzhou and quickly asked, "Clan Leader, what's wrong?"
Wu Yuanzhou's face was ashen, and his whole body was filled with murderous intent.
The elders exchanged glances, all seeing confusion in each other's eyes. They couldn't understand what was wrong with Wu Yuanzhou; his killing intent had suddenly become so intense.
Just as everyone was puzzled, Wu Yuanzhou said in a deep voice, "I have found the murderer who killed my son and Wu Li."
"What!"
Upon hearing this, all the elders present were taken aback.
The second elder was silent for a moment, then said, "So, shall we go and take revenge next?"
The elders looked at the Second Elder with puzzled expressions.
The Fourth Elder then said, "Second Elder, isn't that obvious? Now that we've discovered the murderer who killed the Young Master and the First Elder, of course we should seek revenge!"
The Second Elder glanced at the Fourth Elder. "Of course I know we should seek revenge, but we know nothing about them. If we rashly go to seek revenge, and their background is stronger than ours, we'll all die!"
After hearing the Second Elder's words, the other elders fell silent. They had indeed only been thinking about taking revenge, and hadn't considered things as much as the Second Elder had.
At this moment, the Third Elder suddenly said, "Don't they also not understand us? Besides, apart from those three forces, who is our Wu Clan afraid of? Moreover, now that the Clan Chief has broken through to the Immortal Lord Realm, we can even challenge those three forces! So, Second Elder, don't overthink it. Let's hurry up and take revenge, otherwise the murderer who killed the Young Master and Wu Li will escape!"
After listening, the elders pondered for a moment, then nodded, all agreeing with what the Third Elder had said.
The Second Elder glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice, "What if the power behind them is even stronger than those three powers?"
"Impossible!" Upon hearing this, the Third Elder immediately shook his head, indicating that it was impossible.
The Second Elder looked at the Third Elder, "Why is it impossible?"
The Third Elder said, "How could such a force possibly exist in our remote little place?"
The second elder said, "What if?"
The Third Elder frowned and said, "Second Elder, when did you become so timid? This isn't like you."
The Second Elder sighed deeply, without answering the Third Elder's question.
Actually, it wasn't that he was cowardly; it was that he felt a vague unease in his heart for some reason, especially when he heard that the elders were going to take revenge, that feeling of unease became even stronger.
That's why he thought he should first understand the other party's background before making a long-term plan.
But these elders acted like they had no brains, insisting on arguing with him, which left him feeling very helpless.
He ignored the elders and looked at the silent Wu Yuanzhou. "Clan leader, it's up to you whether we seek revenge now, or decide to find out more about the other side before taking revenge."
Wu Yuanzhou's eyes flickered, but he remained silent. After a moment of silence, he looked in one direction and said, "I don't have that much time to find out about their background. Let's go get our revenge first."
Normally, Wu Yuanzhou might listen to the Second Elder, but now that he has broken through to the Immortal Lord, he has naturally become somewhat arrogant.
Not only him, but the elders of the Wu Clan also became arrogant.
The Second Elder, of course, saw it too, but he didn't say anything more, only sighing helplessly in his heart.
Wu Yuanzhou said, "Let's go."
As he spoke, he walked directly towards a certain place.
The elders quickly followed.
The Second Elder glanced at the retreating figures of the group, shook his head, and looked on with a hint of helplessness in his eyes. After a moment of silence, he didn't hesitate any longer and followed them.
Unlike the previous Wu Clan expert, he did not choose to flee, because he was the second elder of the Wu Clan, and as the second elder, how could he possibly run away?
Therefore, even knowing that Wu Yuanzhou's decision would endanger his life, he did not choose to betray or flee.
