Chapter 414: Chapter 284: Eradicate Thoroughly!

“Tower Master Predecessor, who do you think sent these Wujian Building assassins to assassinate us?”

Lu Qing’s words made the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master first pause, then fall silent, not saying anything for a long time.

Seeing him like this, Lu Qing smiled and said, “It seems Tower Master Predecessor already has a guess.”

The Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master still said nothing.

“Brother Lu Qing, do you know who sent people to assassinate us?” Ma Gu couldn’t help but ask.

“It’s a very evident question. There aren’t many we have offended, and even fewer with whom we have a life-or-death enmity.

Think about it, who now is most eager to take our lives?”

“Suspended Mountain!” Ma Gu said without hesitation.

He quickly understood and asserted, “It can’t be wrong, this Suspended Mountain claims to be Righteous but in reality, they are hypocritical to the extreme!

By daylight, they attempted to forcibly convert Old Doctor Chen under the guise of discussing the Dao, which is frankly more nauseating than the Evil Path Sects.

Brother Lu Qing, you not only spoiled their plans but also killed their men.

These assassins must be the ones they sent!”

“Exactly!” Wei Zian also said at this time, “In my opinion, this Wujian Building, the way it managed to survive that purge hundreds of years ago, might very well be because Suspended Mountain secretly intervened!”

Upon hearing this, everyone else was visibly shaken and involuntarily looked towards the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master to see his response.

Not even Lin Zhirui was an exception, looking towards his own Master.

Under the intense gaze of everyone, the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master finally heaved a sigh.

He said, “Hundreds of years ago, when Major Sects joined forces to eradicate Wujian Building, there was indeed a strange incident that troubled the experts at the time.

That is, when they had annihilated the forces of Wujian Building, and nearly all of the Disciples were slaughtered,

the Sect Master of Wujian Building and several Supreme Elders, after fighting with many experts and sustaining severe injuries, returned to their lair.

They then set it on fire, burning down the whole lair, including the remaining Disciples who stood guard.

That fire, fueled by oil and other accelerants, was fiercely intense.

So intense that, although the experts from Major Sects had surrounded the lair of Wujian Building, they could only wait for the fire to burn out before they could continue to attack.

But upon entry, they were met with a horrific scene.

Inside the lair of Wujian Building, the ground was littered with half-charred corpses and ashes, impossible to identify who was who.

Whether the Sect Master of Wujian Building and the Supreme Elders perished in the sea of fire was also unverifiable.

This became one of that year’s unsolved mysteries.

However, over the following hundreds of years, Wujian Building never resurfaced.

Thus, everyone unanimously concluded that the Sect Master and the Elders of Wujian Building must have perished in the fire.

Wujian Building was thought to have turned to ash in that conflagration, completely disappearing into thin air.

Who would have thought that it would reappear tonight.”

“No need to think too hard, it’s clear that the so-called Sect Master and Elders of Wujian Building did not die back then, and it must be Suspended Mountain who sheltered them!” Ma Gu said with finality.

The Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master did not refute.

In fact, according to the top-secret scrolls he had reviewed,

after the annihilation of Wujian Building, for a long time, Major Sects did not let down their guard, often dispatching people across the world to investigate,

in case any remnants of Wujian Building survived and reignited.

Only after several decades, when no trace of Wujian Building’s remnants had been found, did Major Sects confirm that Wujian Building indeed had been decisively eradicated.

In reality, given the purge’s intensity by the Major Sects at that time, it was highly unlikely for any remnants of Wujian Building to go undetected.

But now, the assassins of Wujian Building have appeared before him, flesh and blood.

This only shows that during these hundreds of years, Wujian Building has always been hiding in the shadows, silently lurking.

To have escaped the decades of searching by those Sects, including assassin Sects like Seven Killings Tower which are experts in stealth and assassination,

the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master concluded, there are only a few places in the Mysterious Land that could achieve this.

However, without concrete evidence, the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master could not claim as much.

Therefore, the truth was too shocking to utter.

You see, the proposal to eliminate Wujian Building years ago was initiated by Holy Mountain, and the decision was finalized by the Four Great Secret Places.

In the end, the remnants of Wujian Building were protected by one of the secret lands.

Should Major Sects come to know of this, it would cause immense shockwaves.

After all, during the elimination of Wujian Building back then, Major Sects suffered significant casualties.

Some Sects even lost their Sect Masters on the battlefield.

If they knew their sacrifices ended up as a mockery,

some of them might go berserk right away.

It is a tumultuous period right now; Central State is already in a tense situation.

If this news gets out, the recently pacified situation will likely be disrupted once more.

“Tower Master Predecessor need not be troubled.”

Seeing the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master’s concerns, Lu Qing smiled and said, “These are just speculations by Ma Gu and the others, not to be taken as truth. We will investigate the real situation ourselves.”

Despite what was said, the Heavenly Mechanism Tower Master could see that Lu Qing and his companions were convinced that Suspended Mountain was behind it.

He sighed once more and said, “Young Master Lu, the reemergence of Wujian Building in the world is full of mysteries, and I’m afraid it’s not as simple as what we see on the surface.”
