Lin Xuan's clone, having removed his hood, looked at Elder Feng's distorted and broken face, his expression neither sad nor happy.
"I remember when I was on Silver Heron Sacred Mountain, I asked you if you wanted to die... You didn't answer, so I took that as a yes."
The moment the words left his mouth, Elder Feng couldn't catch his breath. His eyes widened in hatred as he stared intently at Lin Xuan's face, the life force in his eyes completely extinguished.
An elder of the Azure Luan Pavilion, who was at the King Realm Second Layer, died in a low mountain valley.
He didn't even have time to resist before he died.
Not even bothering to look at Elder Feng's miserable death, Lin Xuan casually brushed the dust off his black robe and vanished from the spot.
As for how the young men from the Azure Luan Pavilion would operate the spirit boat back, whether they would help Elder Feng collect his body, or whether Azure Luan Pavilion would trace it back to him... those were not within his considerations.
Once killed, that's it.
If Azure Luan Pavilion is dissatisfied, they can come knocking on our door...
Then let's just kill them all.
It's simply a matter of making them go from second among the Seven Sects to second among the Illusory Feather Sect.
Elder Feng's death left no ripple in Lin Xuan's heart.
After Qin Feng brought Qin Lan back, and Lin Xuan and Chen Xiong returned from Silver Heron Sacred Mountain, Fairy Cold Moon didn't even ask about the disciple recruitment situation, and directly put them all into Lin Xuan's Sword Pavilion.
This was exactly what Lin Xuan wanted.
He didn't offend Fairy Cold Moon, and for many days he patiently discussed the upcoming Seven Kingdoms Grand Competition with her and the other elders.
"The rest of the agenda will be decided by Pavilion Master Lin. I will not say anything more about the Seven Kingdoms Grand Competition..."
Inside the council hall of the Jade Balance Sword Palace, Fairy Cold Moon's clear, cold voice fell like pearls, but she abruptly stopped halfway through her sentence, her face quickly turning icy, and she abruptly turned her head to look outside.
Who is it?
With a flash, Fairy Cold Moon stepped forward and met the approaching aura of a powerful figure head-on.
When she saw the white-haired old woman standing in mid-air, Fairy Cold Moon's expression froze.
Although she was very old, the aura emanating from this white-haired old woman was terrifying!
Upon seeing him, Fairy Cold Moon recognized who it was, and her expression immediately changed.
"So it's the Azure Luan Pavilion visiting. Please, invite her in."
The Jade Balance Sword Palace is weak, and before a major sect like the Azure Luan Pavilion, it is destined to have no choice but to bow its head.
The Pavilion Master of the Azure Luan Pavilion is very powerful and can be considered a senior of Fairy Cold Moon. It is not shameful for her to bow down to her.
However... Fairy Cold Moon was puzzled. At most, there was only a slight connection between their Jade Balance Sword Palace and Azure Luan Pavilion. Why would the Pavilion Master of the Azure Luan Pavilion suddenly visit?
Moreover, the other party's expression was extremely unpleasant...
Despite her doubts, Fairy Cold Moon did not neglect proper etiquette and respectfully invited the person into the main hall's council chamber.
The Pavilion Master of the Azure Luan Pavilion, his face contorted with suppressed anger, gave a cold snort and followed her to his seat.
After taking her seat, Fairy Cold Moon finally voiced her doubts.
"May I ask what brings the Pavilion Master of the Azure Luan Pavilion here?"
It would have been better if he hadn't said anything, because once he did, the Azure Luan Pavilion Master's face grew even more gloomy.
What is it?
"My Elder Feng disappeared without a trace after the Immortal Ascension Ceremony and has not returned since. I fear he is in grave danger. What do you think I have come for, Vice Palace Master Han Yue?"
Han Yue was taken aback for a moment, then frowned.
That crazy woman is dead?
But that madwoman's death is none of her business; what does it have to do with her Jade Balance Sword Palace?
Could it be that because of her feud with Elder Feng, the Pavilion Master of the Azure Luan Pavilion mistakenly believes that it was her Jade Balance Sword Palace that was behind it?
absurd!
The Fairy Cold Moon's expression turned cold, and her tone was no longer kind.
"Senior, what is the meaning of this? Could it be that you have come to my Jade Balance Sword Palace to demand an explanation?"
Although she and that crazy woman didn't get along, it wasn't to the point of killing each other; otherwise, she would have already done it!
"What do you mean?" The Pavilion Master of the Azure Luan Pavilion sensed the impatience in Fairy Cold Moon's tone, sneered, and laid his cards on the table.
"I've heard that during the Immortal Ascension Ceremony, Chen Xiong and another elder from your sect had a conflict with Elder Feng from my sect. Afterwards, my elder mysteriously disappeared after leaving Silver Heron Sacred Mountain."
"Vice Palace Master Han Yue, let me ask you this: if you were in her shoes, wouldn't you have doubts about your Jade Balance Sword Palace?"
The Fairy Cold Moon opened her mouth, but remained silent for a moment.
Chen Xiong, whose name was called upon in the elders' council, had his expression change several times before a thoughtful look gradually appeared on his face.
Silence fell over the hall. The white-haired old woman slowly rose and glanced around.
"I truly have no evidence in this matter, nor do I know who killed my Elder Feng. Your Jade Balance Sword Palace can deny it, and I will not take forceful action. However, you had better pray that I don't find anything, otherwise..."
As soon as he finished speaking, an extremely fierce pressure, belonging to the King Realm Fourth Layer Perfection, swept across the entire area!
The elders in the hall were caught off guard and were all overwhelmed, their faces turning pale.
With his mastery of the King Realm Fourth Layer Perfection, he was one of the top figures in the entire Heron Empire, with no rivals except for the Jade Void Sword Sect.
The strongest members of the Jade Balance Sword Palace, Fairy Cold Moon and Elder Lu Ming, were provoked and threatened in this way. Their faces turned ugly, and they glared angrily at the Pavilion Master of the Azure Luan Pavilion, suppressing the surging Qi and Blood in their chests.
However, they were powerless to fight back. They endured the oppressive aura and tried their best to maintain their composure, hoping that the palace master, who was in seclusion, would appear and resolve the crisis.
Little did anyone know that although Heavenly Venerable Yunli sensed the menacing approach of the Azure Luan Pavilion Master, she paid no attention to him and did not move an inch, continuing her seclusion to recover her strength.
With Lin Xuan around, a King Realm Fourth Layer cultivator can't cause any trouble.
"No need to investigate. I killed him, so what?"
