Xu Poyun looked at the Grand Elder, a cold glint in his eyes, "Yuan'er has been to the Snow Clan?"
The Grand Elder nodded. "Hmm."
Xu Poyun clenched his fists and said grimly, "Have you looked for Xue Mo?"
The First Elder nodded and said, "We've searched. Snow Clan said the Young Sect Master went to the Desolate Continent to find his daughter."
Xu Poyun frowned. "His daughter is in that Desolate Continent?"
The Grand Elder said, "That's right, in a small force called the Sword Sect in the Desolate Continent."
He hesitated for a moment, then said, "I suspect that the young sect leader's death is inextricably linked to the Snow Clan's daughter and the Sword Sect."
"Snort!"
Xu Poyun snorted coldly, his body flashing with killing intent.
The Grand Elder's expression changed, and he said, "Sect Master, please don't act impulsively. The Snow Clan Chief's daughter is not to be trifled with."
Xu Poyun's gaze was icy. "Don't worry, if Yuan'er's death has nothing to do with her, I naturally won't kill her. But if I discover that Yuan'er's death is related to her, then..."
He stopped there, but the killing intent in his eyes was clearly visible.
The Grand Elder said in a deep voice, "But the Snow Clan..."
Xu Poyun said coldly, "What? Does my Nine Yang Divine Sect fear the Snow Clan?"
The Grand Elder shook his head. "Of course I'm not afraid, but I feel that the young sect leader's death is not simple."
"Oh?"
Xu Poyun narrowed his eyes. "What do you mean?"
The First Elder pondered for a few seconds, then said, "The Young Sect Master should have the Divine Soul Token given to him by the Ancestor, right?"
Xu Poyun nodded. "Of course."
The Grand Elder said, "I suspect that the person who killed the Young Sect Master is no ordinary person."
Xu Poyun frowned and asked, "Why?"
The First Elder explained, "Think about it, the Young Sect Master possesses the Divine Soul Token of Cangyan. With this Divine Soul Token, who can harm the Young Sect Master? Even Immortal Sovereign Realm might not be able to harm the Young Sect Master, let alone kill him."
"But the young sect leader died even though he possessed the Divine Soul Token. What does that mean? It means that the person who killed the young sect leader was definitely not weak; at the very least, they were at the High-Stage Immortal Sovereign Realm."
Xu Poyun said grimly, "What if Yuan'er didn't have time to use the Divine Soul Token?"
The Grand Elder shook his head decisively and said, "That's impossible."
Xu Poyun said, "Why is it impossible?"
The Grand Elder asked, "Has the Sect Master forgotten that the Ancestor suddenly became angry before?"
Upon hearing this, Xu Poyun immediately understood, his pupils dilating. "You mean, the reason why Ancestor Cangyan suddenly became angry might be because of Yuan'er's death?"
The Grand Elder nodded.
Xu Poyun fell silent, then disappeared from the spot. After a long while, he reappeared.
His face was full of confusion. "Neither of the two patriarchs are here. Where did they go?"
The elder said, "Should we use the communication stone to make contact?"
Xu Poyun nodded, then took out a sound transmission stone and began to transmit his voice, but after a long time, the sound transmission stone still did not respond.
Xu Poyun frowned, then took out another sound transmission stone, but just like the previous one, it still didn't produce any response.
Seeing this, Xu Poyun's face turned extremely gloomy.
The First Elder also looked puzzled and asked, "What happened? Why can't we contact the two patriarchs? Could it be that they went to avenge the young sect master?"
Xu Poyun shook his head and said, "Impossible! If the two patriarchs really went to avenge Yuan'er, they should have returned long ago."
The Grand Elder's face was grave. "That's true."
Xu Poyun said in a deep voice, "We can't contact the two patriarchs. What should we do next?"
The Grand Elder pondered for a few seconds, then said, "Let's go check out the Sword Sect first."
Xu Poyun nodded, "I think the same thing."
As he spoke, he looked at the other elders in the room, "You will remain in the Divine Sect..."
The Grand Elder suddenly said, "Let them all come together."
Upon hearing this, Xu Poyun frowned and looked at the Grand Elder, "Why?"
The Grand Elder said solemnly, "I have a feeling that the Sword Sect is not simple. Bringing more people is definitely the right thing to do."
Xu Poyun pondered for a few seconds, then nodded and said, "Okay, I'll do as you say."
Two weeks later.
Xu Poyun and a group of elders arrived in the Desolate Continent, and soon found the Desolate Continent Sword Sect.
Looking at the Sword Sect before them, the elders were filled with doubt.
An elder said, "Is this small sect worth our involvement?"
Another elder said, "Yes, isn't that a bit too cautious?"
The elders all expressed their confusion.
The Grand Elder also looked doubtful. "Could I have guessed wrong?"
Xu Poyun's face remained expressionless. Without hesitation, he took a step forward and appeared inside the Sword Sect.
At that moment, two incredibly terrifying forces instantly enveloped everyone.
Human Heart shocked; a strong sense of crisis and the aura of death surged into their hearts like a tide.
Xu Poyun's expression changed drastically. Before he could react, two figures appeared in front of him.
Upon seeing the two familiar figures, Xu Poyun and all the elders were stunned.
"Ancestor... Ancestor!"
"Why are the two patriarchs here?"
"I don't know!"
The elder's eyes gleamed with a sharp light, and it was unclear what he was thinking.
The Immortal Emperor Cangyan's gaze fell upon Xu Poyun.
Xu Poyun trembled and quickly clasped his hands in greeting, "Greetings, two venerable ancestors."
Then, with some confusion, he asked, "Two venerable ancestors, what brings you here?"
The Immortal Emperor Cangyan calmly said, "Watch the gate."
Gatekeeper?
Upon hearing this, everyone in the room was stunned, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Xu Poyun said incredulously, "Watch... watch the gate?"
The Immortal Emperor Cangyan remained expressionless. "What? Is there a problem?"
Xu Poyun quickly shook his head, "No... no problem."
At this moment, his heart was filled with doubt and heaviness.
For some reason, he felt that the current Immortal Emperor Cangyan was like a completely different person, unlike before.
After a brief silence, Xu Poyun asked in a deep voice, "Why are the two patriarchs here guarding the gate?"
The Immortal Emperor Cangyan said coldly, "Aren't you asking a lot of questions?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly grabbed Xu Poyun by the neck.
All of this happened in an instant!
No one in the room reacted in time!
When they finally realized what was happening, they found that the Immortal Emperor Cangyan was radiating an overwhelming killing intent, leaving them completely dumbfounded.
"What's going on? Why did the Ancestor suddenly attack the Sect Master?"
"I have a feeling that something's off about the old ancestor these days!"
"I feel the same way."
"Old... Old Ancestor wouldn't have killed the Sect Master, would he?"
"That shouldn't be possible, right?"
The Grand Elder watched this scene with a look of solemnity and astonishment in his eyes.
To be honest, he never expected that the Immortal Emperor Cangyan would make a move against Xu Poyun.
Why is that?
The elder frowned, his face full of doubt and confusion.
