Chapter 2139: Spear God’s Disciple

Not far from the Lotus Moon Pavilion, he saw a fist mark on the ground, flattening the building on it. That was the first thing he noticed when he arrived at the window.

Black smoke billowed from all areas, and once he expanded his vision with Chaos Eyes. He saw the clear look on the devastated Immortal City. Once, a beautiful city was nothing more than a ruin.

He saw the mark of a sword slash all over the city, along with many fist marks similar to the one in front of him. Crimson fire blazed through the city with no mercy, leaving charred remains. There were seven pit holes, with four of them near the Murim Alliance’s headquarters.

There were not many buildings that stayed intact, but it seemed the Heaven Founder failed to breach the Murim Alliance’s headquarters.

A look of regret flashed on Tang Shaoyang’s eyes, regretting not being able to watch the fight.

”The Supreme Being brought the Guardians and an outsider to ambush the Alliance Leader. However, they ambushed the Alliance Leader at the wrong time because Fist God, Fire God, and Spear God were in the city when they attacked.”

Ouyang Biya started to tell Tang Shaoyang what happened.

Tang Shaoyang didn’t interrupt her even though this was the first time he heard about Fist God, Fire God, and Spear God.

They failed to assassinate the Alliance Leader, which led to the fight. The outsider brought by the Supreme Being was more powerful than the thought that even when the Fist God, Fire God, and Spear God were on him, the trio could not gain an advantage while Alliance Leader Zhong Tian Yun was fighting the Supreme Being.

The fight ended so quickly because the reinforcements arrived. The Major Factions arrived before the city could be destroyed, and the Heaven Founder retreated.

The fight was brief, but in such a short time, they exchanged numerous blows. The city was the proof of how the fight went.

”That outsider managed to kill the Fist God by himself while fighting against three. They fled after the reinforcement arrived because the outside also suffered a heavy injury while the Alliance Leader was on par against the Supreme Being.”

The Supreme Being was the leader of the Heaven Founder. Tang Shaoyang didn’t know his name yet, as Ouyang Biya had never mentioned it. The Guardians didn’t have the courage to address the Supreme Being with a name as well, so this Supreme Being’s name was still unknown to him.

However, he was confident that this outsider was Alderman Fiodor. As he predicted that the Heaven Founder would make a move or something, but he didn’t expect them to attack the Immortal City right away, even though he considered that possibility.

”Wait a minute... Where are you, Artras?”

He sent Artras, one of his shadow spirits, to hide in Guardian Quan’s shadow, but he didn’t receive any report from Artras that the Heaven Founder wanted to attack the Immortal City.

[I am still following Guardian Quan, Master. I don’t know where I am right now, but we are inside the tunnel. Guardian Quan has been walking inside this tunnel for half a day with his army, but I don’t know where they are headed.]

Tang Shaoyang frowned, ”You don’t follow him to their meeting?”

The Heaven Founder must hold a meeting before launching such a big attack. There must be a purpose behind their attack, and a Guardian should attend such an important meeting. At least, he thought so.

[There’s no meeting, Master. Guardian Quan received a letter, and he burned the letter right away before I could read it. He then leads the Heaven Founder’s force into this tunnel after receiving the letter. I plan to tell you about this move once I find where they are heading.]

”Is it a distraction?” Tang Shaoyang muttered.

He considered the attack a distraction, but the Supreme Being and Alderman still fought Alliance Leader even when the three gods: Fire God, Fist God, and Spear God, were here. It meant they intended to kill the alliance leader.

However, that could be an act of distraction as well, since the Heaven Founder moved their force, ”Or maybe they are moving to the Immortal City?”

Tang Shaoyang quickly threw that idea away. The Major Factions would not let the Heaven Founder destroy the Murim Alliance. Even if they wanted the Alliance Leader to die to put themselves in that position, this was not the right time for that. The fact that Alderman killed Spear God, they should realize they needed Alliance Leader Zhong Tian Yun to fight off the threat.

”Keep me updated on the situation on that side, Artras!”

Tang Shaoyang wanted to discuss the next course of action with his people, whether they should get involved or not with Alderman joining the Heaven Founder. But then he heard a ruckus from below, right in front of his Lotus Moon Pavilion.

At the same time, he heard a hurried step three floors below his room. He listened to the steps until they stopped right in front of his room.

”My Lord! It’s me, Manager Yang Anming.”

Not long after, a voice came from the other side of the door.

”Come in!” Tang Shaoyang returned to his seat as he responded.

Yang Anming was a cultivator from the Yang Clan. He was appointed by Yang Bao to be the manager of the Lotus Moon Pavilion.

Yang Anming opened the door, lowering his head, and didn’t dare to look at the people in the room. He knew his position, and Clan Head Yang Bao had warned me multiple times as well.

”There’s an issue that needs your attention, My Lord.”

”Is it related to the ruckus downstairs?”

”Yes, My Lord,” Yang Anming nodded his head twice, ”Spear God’s disciple, Han Lingxiao, is asking us to open our business. But we are currently close. Our girls are currently terrified after the fight, and I don’t think they are in the right state of mind to serve the customers.”

”There’s a concern about opening a business right now. I am afraid that with the situation right now, the cultivators might be too rough and might injure or even kill our girls to just vent out their frustration after the battle.”

Even though the city survived, the alliance leader didn’t suffer heavy injury. It was still considered the Murim Alliance’s loss. The city was left in ruin, and Spear God died.

Tang Shaoyang clicked his tongue in annoyance. Another trivial matter came to him. Manager Yang Anming was afraid of the status of the person who caused a ruckus. He could understand why Yang Anming brought the matter to him.

The annoyance was because he had to wear a skin mask to cover his identity. He was still the most wanted criminal in the Sacred Realm, after all.

”I will come down to meet him.”
