Chapter 131: Chapter 103: Lifeflame’s Vengeance, Illusory Turmoil (Triple Combo)

Now, the entire Dongting Lake naturally unfolded before their eyes.

From the moment Chen Kuang stormed into the Governor’s Mansion, some people sensed something was amiss and gradually made their way to this observation deck.

At this moment, they witnessed Chen Kuang offering three heads as a sacrifice to the Dragon King, causing a massive change in Dongting Lake, dispersing a storm!

The world was renewed!

The cultivators within Xianyu Nunnery, who hailed from different countries and powers, surprisingly acted in unison at this moment.

First came the shock, then they immediately used various means to contact their own sects or seek out what had happened.

Among them was a lone cultivator dressed in dark red robes, staring blankly at the distant Governor’s Mansion.

What he held in his hand was not the usual jade slips or talismans for communication, but a small lamp with a flickering flame emitting a blinding red light.

The cultivator beside him asked with some confusion:

"Brother Liu Ming, what you have in your hand... is it the life fire of your Yihuo Sect?"

Liu Ming nodded blankly.

The cultivator asked again: "Is everything alright? Tonight’s events are big news, shouldn’t you contact your sect’s elders?"

After a pause, Liu Ming replied:

"No need..."

"This life fire senses the Yihuo Sect members nearby, indicating their life status. The red glow means... the Sect Leader has fallen."

All Yihuo Sect members near Jishao saw the change in the life fire at this moment.

The news of the Sect Leader’s death quickly spread throughout the entire Yihuo Sect.

Killing a sect leader naturally became a blood feud for the sect!

One by one, the life fires ignited.

In the main hall of Yihuo Sect, all members within the sect gathered, as the former sect leader, now the Supreme Elder, slowly stepped out.

His face was hard, his voice resounding throughout the sect:

"The Sect Leader was murdered, we, the members, swear vengeance!"

He waved his hand, and in the life fire, Chen Kuang’s image appeared, capturing the vision Bai Fen saw before his death.

The flames flickered, pointing distantly in a certain direction.

"The enemy of Yihuo Sect is where the life fire points!"

"From today onward, those in the Tower Ascension Realm or above, if they encounter this person, kill him without question!"

"Yes!!!"

.....

On a small path near Dongting Lake.

Two middle-aged cultivators walked along the path, one of them saying:

"Elder Wei, please forgive my neglect. Dongting Lake has been unsettled recently, especially because of Chen Kuang. The Jishao Governor somehow got wind of it and has already informed our pavilion’s experts. Please wait a moment; there should be results soon."

"It’s just that you’ve made a wasted trip. I’m truly sorry. Later, you can pick any mystical spiritual treasure from our Martial Saint Pavilion as a small gesture from us."

The other was none other than the Three Tribulations Sect Elder, Wei Yan, who once pursued Chen Kuang.

Wei Yan smiled and said: "It’s nothing, working for the Martial Saint is my honor."

He sighed: "Just too bad that Di Wu was so unlucky, offending such a master, I didn’t even see him before he perished along with the Wind and Rain Pavilion at Dongting Lake."

Wei Yan was en route when Di Wu met his demise.

That sword slashed through the sky, which Wei Yan also saw.

Having not left the Imperial City for long, he saw it particularly clearly and was almost certain of where the sword Qi came from, but he dared not confirm it.

Wei Yan felt suspicious yet dared not speak the answer aloud.

He was rather fond of life... although he felt puzzled in his heart.

Why would that person help Chen Kuang?

"Moreover, our Three Tribulations Sect naturally also wants to find Chen Kuang and that mother and daughter."

Wei Yan said: "If the Martial Saint Pavilion takes action, all the better, but could we have Chen Kuang’s body for our Three Tribulations Sect?"

The cultivator nodded and said: "Of course, we only want his life in the Martial Saint Pavilion."

Since it’s well-known that the Three Tribulations Sect is aligned with Great Zhou, he did not suspect Wei Yan’s intentions.

Wei Yan’s eyes flickered, and he smiled: "That would be ideal."

He replayed countless times the scenario where he and Zhao Lie were deceived by Chen Kuang, discovering that Zhao Lie had an uncharacteristic faith in Chen Kuang’s words, often hesitating to act, even when he did, it was with hesitation.

Wei Yan pondered long over why that was and realized the issue might lie with the first slash Zhao Lie made during their search.

Zhao Lie’s slash struck true!

It struck, but Chen Kuang did not die, nor did he have any scars.

This was very strange, especially when he later needed to resort to various deceptions to lure them to the River of Death and use the great demon to intimidate them, contradictory.

If he wasn’t afraid of death, he wouldn’t have needed such trouble, nor to borrow Buddha’s Son’s identity for cover.

What did this mean? It meant he feared exposing such a capability.

Moreover, he only had this capability.

The brief ability to not die!

Wei Yan completely understood why Wei Su died at Chen Kuang’s hands.

They didn’t just happen to meet, but Wei Su discovered this secret—

Chen Kuang was the one who consumed the Elixir of Longevity!

Upon realizing this, Wei Yan couldn’t help but sneer.

Unexpectedly, after so many twists and turns, it was their Three Tribulations Sect that grasped this secret before Ji Chengtian.

Once they obtained the Elixir of Longevity, the Three Tribulations Sect would truly become Great Zhou’s national sect.

A patriarch with a lifespan equal to heaven, breaking through to a Saint would only be a matter of time.
