Qian Tong, as the Great Elder of the Shadow Moon Palace, has been in the Shadow Moon Palace for so many years with high prestige. The old Palace Lord has not been able to retreat all year round, hoping to penetrate the supreme mystery of the Void King Realm. Therefore, in the Shadow Moon Palace, Qian Tong is almost equivalent as the identity of the Palace Lord.
Coupled with his extremely high cultivation level, Xie Chen has always been very fearful of him.
Now that Qian Tong appeared at first sight, Xie Chen instinctively took a few steps back, looking a little panic.
But soon, he stopped his figure and looked fierce.
Yes, ten years ago, He was really not Qian Tong’s opponent. After all, He was one level behind him in cultivation, but now...
He dispelled the deep-rooted fear of Qian Tong in his heart, and replaced it with an eagerness to try.
"Hey, are we home?" Qian Tong walked out of the whirlpool and saw Heavenly Fate City not far away at a glance. He laughed and said, "I'm home now. The old man is too bored being in that ghost place."
Although inside the Mysterious Boundary Bead was peaceful and rich with spiritual energy, there was something missing after all, which made Qian Tong not very comfortable.
Qian Tong is in a great mood now returning to his homeland and visiting Heavenly Fate City again.
"Good. Chang'er, Xuan'er, haven't seen you for many years, your cultivation is also good, you are about to be promoted to the 2nd-order Void Return Stage...Well? Why are you injured?" Qian Tong's face sank, and a thundering anger appeared on his face Angrily: "Who hurt you?"
He is not clear about the current situation.
Wei Guchang and Dong Xuan'er stared at Qian Tong in a daze, unable to return to their senses for a long time. After a long while, the two of them knelt down at Qian Tong's feet with a thump.
"Elder Qian, the disciple is ashamed of your trust and failed to preserve the Shadow Moon Palace. Please ask Elder to punish!" Wei Guchang pressed his forehead to the ground.
"Master, please punish!" Dong Xuan'er also bowed to the ground, sobbing softly.
Even in the face of enemies several times their own, even in the face of death, the two Senior Brother and Junior Sister did not frown. But now. When they saw Qiantong appear. The two people firm will finally disintegrated, as if the wronged child met the parent.
Qian Tong realized that something was wrong at this time, and looked around coldly. His gaze paused on Xie Chen, vaguely guessing, but did not immediately pursue it. He stretched out his hand and lifted up Wei Guchang and Dong Xuan'er, and said solemnly: "Get up and talk, Shadow Moon Palace...what's wrong?"
Qian Tong's face was calm, but it's like the calm before storm, there was an extremely inexplicable oppressive atmosphere in the world.
"Shadow Moon Palace...has been ruined." Wei Guchang replied sadly.
"Ruined?" Qian Tong's face sank, "Who did it? Speak carefully."
"Yes!" Wei Guchang respectfully nodded, explaining the changes in the Shadow Moon Palace one by one.
Two years ago, the entire Shadowed Star suddenly had a great change, and a magical force emerged, madly suppressing the major sects on the Shadowed Star, if there were those who refused, they rushed to kill them. For a while, the entire Shadowed Star was in a bloody storm, countless cities were turned into ruins overnight, hundreds of millions of creatures perished, wailing everywhere, corpses piled up into mountains, and bloodshed all over the place.
Soon, the claws of that mysterious force stretched towards the Shadow Moon Palace. In the face of thhat power, the senior officials of the Shadow Moon Palace didn't know what to do.
The Shadow Moon Palace was originally divided into two factions. This was revealed when Qian Tong was still in Shadowed Star. In the face of the crisis, this division became more serious.
The final result was that the faction lead by Xie Chen won.
Xie Chen and others attacked the old palace master and some high-level leaders of the main battle faction, causing the Shadow Moon Palace to suffer heavy casualties and fall apart.
Overnight, the Shadow Moon Palace had changed ownership, and Xie Chen was the new Lord of the Shadow Moon Palace, expressing surrender to that mysterious power.
The high-level cultivators who had supported and stood on Qian Tong's side in the past were almost driven to extinction, and Fei Zhitu, who was in Heavenly Fate City, was also imprisoned.
In the Shadow Moon Palace, only a few elite escaped. Wei Guchang and Dong Xuan'er were called by the old palace master who was aware of it the night before the incident, and asked them to bring the treasure of the Heavenly Moon Silver Disk and left the Shadow Moon Palace.
In the past two years, the two have been incognito, running around, and their lives are extremely difficult.
And the reason they appear near Heavenly Fate City this time was just to rescue Fei Zhitu.
Xie Chen broke the news that Fei Zhitu, who refuse to surrender, will be beheaded in Heavenly Fate City, and it will serve as an example, so Wei Guchang and Dong Xuan’er have to appear.
Even if they knew it was a trap, the two jumped in without hesitation.
"The old palace lord is dead! Old Fei is imprisoned?" Qian Tong's face was covered in haze like a dark cloud, and anyone could clearly feel his anger across the sky.
"Where is High Heaven Sect?" Yang Kai asked in a deep voice, "Shadow Moon Palace is suffering from this calamity. Did High Heaven Sect help?"
If High Heaven Sect really didn't help, then he would be too disappointed.
When Yang Kai was in trouble, Qian Tong and Fei Zhitu helped a lot. The reason why Fei Zhitu's realm fell was also related to Yang Kai.
But thinking about it carefully, there is Ye Xiyun in the High Heaven Sect. With Ye Xiyun's character, it is impossible to sit back and watch.
"The High Heaven Sect has a helping hand, and many of the disciples who fled from the Shadow Moon Palace have been taken into the High Heaven Sect to take refuge. Moreover, Elder Ye also sent a number of powerful people in the 3rd-order Void Return Stage, just..."
"Just what?"
"It's just that it's not an opponent. Several died and had to return." Wei Guchang looked sad.
"What?" Yang Kai was shocked.
Even Qian Tong can't believe it.
Those Void Return Stage dispatched by High Heaven Sect must be the strong people from the original Star Emperor Mountain. How could they not even be an opponents, and how many died?
Shadow Moon Palace could not have such a powerful strength!
"The strong people in the Corpse Spirit Religion are like clouds. It is rumored that they have the strong people in the Void King Realm. The people of the High Heaven Sect are not an opponent in front of the Void King Stage." Wei Guchang explained.
The Corpse Spirit Religion is the name of that newly emerging mysterious force.
"Impossible!" Qian Tong looked disbelief.
Yang Kai was also stunned.
Void King Realm powerhouse appeared in Shadowed Star? And there are four people at once?
How is this possible?
There are magical laws of heaven and earth suppressing the world here, tens of thousands of years, it have not been able to give birth to a strong Void King Realm, if it weren't the case, Qian Tong and others would not follow Yang Kai on a long voyage.
But now, Wei Guchang actually told them that there were four Void King Realm in Shadowed Star, which no one could accept.
"The disciple just heard a rumor. So what's the real situation? The disciple doesn't know." Wei Guchang looked sad, suddenly he thought of something, and said again: "By the way, Elder Ye should be clear."
"Why do you say this?" Yang Kai's expression moved.
"It is rumored that Elder Ye had encountered two of those four. After a big battle. She was severely injured. She returned to the High Heaven Sect and is still recovering."
Ye Xiyun was seriously injured!
This is extremely bad news.
However, Yang Kai and Qian Tong looked at each other and inferred some useful information from them.
The four in the rumor. It should not be the Void King Realm. Otherwise, facing the two of them, Ye Xiyun would not be able to retreat completely. As long as one of them shot, Ye Xiyun could be easily killed.
But in fact, Ye Xiyun was only seriously injured and escaped.
However, the strength of the opponent really should not be underestimated. Ye Xiyun's cultivation has reached the limit of the Void Return Stage. If it's not because she is not willing to leave the Shadowed Star, she will already be a powerhouse of Void King Realm now. The other party can only hurt Ye Xiyun by sending two people, it seemed that he was at the same level as Ye Xiyun, or even beyond.
Both Yang Kai and Qian Tong's expressions changed endlessly, quietly digesting the message from Wei Guchang.
Unexpectedly, after seven or eight years, Shadowed Star had undergone such a huge change, what the hell was that Corpse Spirit Religion? Why did it come out of obscurity suddenly?
"Brother Yang doesn't have to worry about High Heaven Sect. Today, High Heaven Sect can be regarded as the last piece of pure land in the entire Shadowed Star. Although the periphery is heavily surrounded, no one can attack it." Seeing Yang Kai's ugly expression, Wei Guchang quickly let out a relief words.
"I know this." Yang Kai nodded.
Yang Kai didn't worry about the safety of the High Heaven Sect. Outside of the High Heaven Sect, there were Three Flaming Fire Rings guarding it. That was the Emperor Treasure. Even if the powerhouse of Void King Realm came in person, it was impossible to break the defense of the Three Flaming Fire Rings.
"Many people who are unwilling to surrender want to escape into the High Heaven Sect, but..." Wei Guchang sighed.
He and Dong Xuan'er also wanted to enter the High Heaven Sect at the beginning, but unfortunately there are too many enemies on the periphery of High Heaven Sect. They have no chance at all. They can only hide during the past two years, and their lives are very difficult.
"Did you finish your gossip?" Suddenly, a murky voice came from the side.
Xie Chen!
He had been watching with cold eyes, standing on the side, did not attack or prevent Wei Guchang from revealing information, only then did he suddenly speak.
Qian Tong turned his head and looked at him, his expression cold, his eyes like a knife.
Xie Chen felt a sudden crisis in his heart and forced himself to calm down. He sneered, "Elder Qian, it's been a long time!"
"Xie Chen!" Qian Tong took a deep breath. "It seems that the old man was indeed too kind back then. I thought that since you was in the same line with the Shadow Moon Palace. If i kill you, it would only damage the strength of the Shadow Moon Palace. So the old man will let you, but i never thought the compassion i showed in the past has been cast into a wrong call today. Qian could only blame himself!"
"Hahaha!" Xie Chen laughed wildly, "Qian Tong, death is approaching, and you dare to make a fuss! What do you think you are? Yes, you really made the old man fearful back then, and you have the ability to kill me. But since you didn't do that in the past, there’s no more chance. Today, this old man is also in the 3rd-order Void Return Stage, and even the new Palace Lord of the Shadow Moon Palace. You are no longer my opponent! Qian Tong, since you have a great contribution to the Shadow Moon Palace. Come on, this palace lord can let you go an live, as long as you are willing to submit to the corpse spirit religion, it may not be impossible for this palace master to restore your position as the great elder!
Qian Tong looked at him indifferently, as if he was looking at a jumping clown, his scornful and contemptuous eyes were obvious.
Yang Kai was also amused by Xie Chen.
Xie Chen is just a 3rd-order Void Return Stage who has just been promoted a few years ago. He actually dared to challenge Qian Tong today. It seems that he really doesn't know how to write the word death.
