Immortal of the Nine Realms

Seeing that Li Changsheng did not speak, the cultivator trembled, secretly cursing himself for being useless.

Li Changsheng’s aura had been so terrifying that he could feel it from a hundred miles away, let alone when he was standing so close to him.

”There is no need to go to the Grand Dao Library, Green Elephant Sect, or the Lingyun Sword Sect. I believe the situation there is the same as here,” Li Changsheng said casually. ”As for the Starry Teleportation Formation, maybe Pu Yuanzhu possesses one, but I don’t know its specific location. It will be difficult to locate in a short time.”

”Are we going to let him escape just like that? He tried to sabotage Master’s breakthrough; he deserves to die,” Lu Qingshu said coldly. ”Since he’s escaped, let’s find everyone related to him and send them on their way. Also, the kid you brought, what’s his connection to this place? You’d better not hide anything from him, Master will find out.”

From the shadows, Fang Chen’s gaze landed on Lu Qingshu. He remembered the man’s appearance and demeanor. If given the chance, he would send him on his way to reunite with Lu Bingbing.

At this moment, both of them suddenly looked up, as terrifying auras approached from the distance. In the blink of an eye, dozens of figures appeared in the sky. They each stood in different directions, not daring to approach too closely. They maintained a distance as they watched Li Changsheng and the others with wary eyes.

Lu Qingshu sneered. ”There are quite a few ants here. Do they enjoy watching the fun?”

As he spoke, his sword domain slowly began to circulate. With a single thought, he could slaughter any creature within the radius of ten thousand miles.

”What are you doing?” questioned Li Changsheng, his voice growing cold. ”This is my turf. If you dare to act recklessly, even your adopted father won’t be able to protect you.”

Perhaps fearing Li Changsheng’s power, Lu Qingshu gave a sheepish laugh. ”I was just joking. You deal with these ants.”

The newcomers were all powerful Immortal Kings from various factions, but Li Changsheng and Lu Qingshu’s blatant disregard for them didn’t anger them. Instead, a chill rose in their hearts.

Ouyang Xuanzhen was the first to fly over. He looked at Li Changsheng with a respectful expression, but a hint of shock flickered deep in his eyes. He called out, ”Senior... Li?”

Why would Li Changsheng appear in the Central Continent Empire? A First Rate Sect Leader like him wouldn’t leave his territory and come to the Immortal Giant Sect for no reason. Could it be that the recent major changes in the Divine Dao Sect have something to do with him?

Thinking of this, Ouyang Xuanzhen’s heart became even more shaken, but he dared not show the slightest abnormality.

Soon, Immortal King Gu Xi and Dragon Sovereign, among others, also stepped forward to pay their respects.

Seeing this, the nearby Immortal Kings, even if they regretted their actions, did not dare to leave on their own. They braved their discomfort and stepped forward.

Among them, four people attracted Fang Chen’s attention. Two of them were the Nine Generation King and the Heavenly King Zhen. As for the other two, they were most likely the Corrosive Dragon King and the Immortal Peak King.

Immortal Peak King vaguely resembled Bai Qingming, almost like a version of Bai Qingming in old age.

”Everyone, I believe we have met before, haven’t we?” Li Changsheng said with a faint smile.

Everyone nodded. Of course they met Li Changsheng before, the first on the Emperor’s Ranking.

Many years ago, they were all Immortal Kings. But now, as they met again, there was a clear difference in their levels. Li Changsheng was a First Rate Sect Leader, and they could only address him as a senior.

In addition, everyone also noticed Lu Qingshu, who was standing next to Li Changsheng, and concluded that he was also a First Rate Sect Leader. Not just that, he was a cultivator too!

This news caused a great stir in their hearts. Had they not been all seasoned and cautious individuals, they would have already let their emotions show on their faces.

”I would like to ask everyone, where have the cultivators of the Immortal Giant Sect gone?” Li Changsheng asked with a smile.

Ouyang Xuanzhen responded respectfully, ”Senior Li, recently, the Divine Dao Sect underwent a huge change. In the span of one night, the four major sects were left empty. We sent people to investigate, but we have never been able to find any traces of their departure. We don’t know where they went.”

”With Pu Yuanzhu’s methods, how could he leave any trace for you ants to find?” Lu Qingshu said with a soft smile.

The crowd’s expressions remained unchanged, as if they hadn’t heard the word ”ants.” However, calling the Divine Dao Sect leader by their full name was enough to confirm their suspicions.

This was another expert who came from the sword cultivation path!

”Who exactly did the Divine Dao Sect offend... to be targeted by two Loose Immortal sword cultivators?”

”This Loose Immortal sword cultivator has quite the temper. Is he from the Northern Dipper or the Celestial Heaven?”

Immortal Peak King, who exuded a scholarly aura, suddenly cupped his hands in salute. ”Senior Li, my son’s fate has been sealed. I wonder what happened to him in Prison Wind?”

Prison Wind?

Many of the Immortal Kings’ gazes shifted, and a hint of contemplation appeared in their eyes. What exactly was Prison Wind? Was it a place in the Immortal Demonic Sea? They hadn’t heard of this place, but since Immortal Peak King mentioned it, it was clear that this place was not to be underestimated!

Lu Qingshu’s gaze shifted. ”Did your son go to Prison Wind to climb the Sword Burial Heavenly Steps? Which one of them is your son? Quite a few sword cultivators died this time.”

Immortal Peak King responded respectfully, ”My son, Bai Qingming. I wonder if you have ever met him, Senior?”

Lu Qingshu’s eyes narrowed, his aura beginning to fluctuate. ”Bai Qingming? Bai Qingming from the Void Immortal Sword Sect? Fang Chen’s senior brother?”

Something’s not right!

Immortal Peak King noticed the change and hurriedly glanced at Li Changsheng, a trace of inquiry in his eyes.

”Lu Qingshu, control your temper. What does this have to do with Bai Qingming? Your son died at Fang Chen’s hands, grievances have their causes and debts have their debts,” Li Changsheng said lightly. ”Don’t drag others into this, or don’t blame me for not showing you any respect.”

His son... died at Fang Chen’s hands?

The Immortal Kings present had almost all heard of Fang Chen’s name, and they couldn’t hide their astonishment when they heard Li Changsheng’s words.

Fang Chen killed a First Rate Sect Leader’s son?

The Immortal Kings of the Daoist Sect exchanged glances, their expressions shifting continuously. On one hand, they admired the boldness and methods of the young man, but on the other hand, a sense of unease began to rise about the safety of their sect.

If such an existence were to become an Immortal King one day, would the three Great Daoist Sects ever know peace?

Fortunately, they quickly regained their composure. Since Fang Chen had offended this Loose Immortal sword cultivator, he was essentially in a hopeless situation with little chance of survival.

With this in mind, their moods lightened a little.

Lu Qingshu’s gaze darkened. ”You also know my son is dead? If Long Xuan had died, I wonder if you would still be speaking such cold words,”

Li Changsheng smiled and replied, ”Unfortunately for you, it was your son who died.”

At these words, the atmosphere turned icy. The sword cultivators brought by both sides exchanged looks but remained silent.

After a few breaths, Li Changsheng turned to Immortal Peak King and said calmly, ”Your son was outmatched and died on the Sword Burial Heavenly Steps.”

Immortal Peak King nodded gently. ”I see.”

”By the way, do you know the direction to the Three Thousand Dao Sect?” Li Changsheng asked.

Ouyang Xuanchen’s eyes brightened slightly, and he quickly said, ”It’s within the territory of Azure Dao Manor, I can guide you both there.”

Li Changsheng nodded. ”Thank you.”

Lu Qingshu casually asked and learned that the Three Thousand Dao Sect was indeed the true origin of Fang Chen. A cruel smile immediately spread across his face.
