“Are those low-tier sects and unaffiliated cultivators causing trouble?”

“About this…” The guardians could only lower their heads and say in a low voice, “The five forces said that we don’t have the right to mobilize their forces. They asked the Grand Elder to discuss with their grand elders. Only then would they help suppress the situation.”

“B*Istards!” An elder shattered a piece of furniture in anger. He was so angry that his entire body trembled. “The day after tomorrow is the day of the grand auction. Where are the treasures of the five major factions? Did they hand them over?”

The guardians were even more troubled when they heard this.

“No,” the captain said bitterly, “The five factions all said that after the Grand Elders come out of seclusion, the six sects Creation realm grand elders will bring them to the auction and watch over them together!”

“These b*stards!”

“They are just taking advantage of the situation to weaken our family!”

Many elders of the Dugu family were indignant.

If the five major factions had taken action, Sky Sword City would not have fallen into such a disastrous situation.

It was true that the Dugu family was powerful, but it was all because of their powerful artifacts. There were not many Dao Integration realm experts in the family. There were only a dozen of them in the headquarters and more than thirty external Dao Integration realm elders.

They would definitely be able to crush any low-tier sect!

However, there were now hundreds of these low-tier sects, and even more unaffiliated cultivators. If they killed them all, then they would likely have to call off the auction and trade privately with the other major factions.

That being said, they could not let this chaos continue either!

“We won’t take action either. Just let the chaos continue while we safeguard our assets.”

The Tenth Elder’s eyes were sharp. “As long as they don’t take the initiative to attack our family, they can attack whoever they want. However, we will take the initiative to identify the bodies and process them.”

Although he said this, he was actually unwilling to resort to this. They should have never have held the auction in the headquarters to begin with.

It was all that masked young man’s fault. Thanks to that incident, the Dugu family had suffered a major blow, both in terms of manpower, as well as in terms of status and authority.

How humiliating!

Furthermore, the Heavenly Demon Sect had been destroyed this morning, which resulted in an uproar among the low-tier forces.

The situation was getting out of control, yet the Dugu family decided to let things go.

…

The next day, in a stone room deep within the Dugu family, an old man slowly opened his eyes.

It was the Grand Elder of the Dugu family who had been in seclusion.

The tip of the Grand Elder’s nose twitched slightly. Naturally, he could smell the thick scent of blood that permeated Sky Sword City.

“Come in here! The auction is about to begin, so what’s going on inside the city?”

His cold voice rang out.

The door of the stone room opened and a few elders walked in carefully.

“Grand Elder, something big has happened in Sky Sword City recently!”

“Tell me everything!” The Grand Elder frowned. “Immediately!”

The elders trembled, but they still said everything they knew. They even used a secret technique to project some scenes from the incidents that had taken place.

After the Grand Elder saw all of this, he fell silent for a long time.

“There’s something fishy about this. It’s definitely not that simple!”

“Also, that masked young man looks a little familiar…”

At this point, the Grand Elder of the Dugu Family hurriedly performed a hand seal and forced out a drop of blood essence.

A few faint blood-colored figures actually floated out.

The first figure was none other than that of Ye Chen when he was in the Soul Race’s territory.

The second and third were the shadows of the mysterious masked young man at the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion and Heavenly Demon Sect!

The three figures suddenly overlapped, and the Grand Elder’s face darkened.

He even shouted and sent the two elders in front of him flying. “It was clearly that b*stard Ye Chen who caused trouble, and you guys actually gave him the leeway to do so!”

Bang! Bang!

The Grand Elder of the Dugu family was furious, and he slapped the inner elders one after another.

“A bunch of b*stards. This was a great opportunity, yet you guys missed it just like that!”

“Argh…This damned little b*stard is really persistent!”

The Grand Elder was so angry that he beat his chest and stamped his feet. He pointed at the kneeling elders and said, “Yesterday was the best time to kill or capture Ye Chen, but you missed the opportunity!”

“Furthermore, are you actually trying to rely on the other five factions to resolve this matter? This is our own territory!”

“If we don’t take action, why should they?”

“You’re all fools. Our own Dao Integration realm experts aren’t even going out to kill the troublemakers, which made them more bold and brazen!”

“You are making us all look like cowards!”

“Grand Elder!” An elder crawled over. There was a red palm print on his face. “The Heavenly Demon Sect has six Dao Integration realm experts. How could it be destroyed by Ye Chen?”

He straightened his neck and said, “It’s impossible for Ye Chen to have done something like that. It had to be a peak ninth-level Dao Integration realm expert!”

“If we act rashly, we might be ambushed by them!”

“If the other five factions don’t make a move, we’ll most likely be killed if we attack alone!”

Crack! Boom!

An explosion rang out as the Grand Elder crushed the third-level Dao Integration realm elder who had spoken to death. His aura burst out like a tidal wave, forcing all of the Dao Integration realm elders to kneel down and kowtow.

“You still don’t understand?” He waved his hand to sweep away the elder’s corpse and said coldly, “You’ve underestimated the enemy time and time again! Let me warn you, Ye Chen must not be underestimated. He destroyed the seventh branch of the Hall of Souls, so why can’t he destroy the Heavenly Demon Sect?”

The Grand Elder was experienced and shrewd, so he managed to figure things out quickly.

Those old monsters were all here to obtain spacetime artifacts, so which one of them would bother to attack the Heavenly Demon Sect?

The Heavenly Demon Sect only had some Dao Integration-grade artifacts at most, and they definitely did not have any spacetime artifacts. Therefore, it would be a fruitless endeavor for any of those old monsters to attack this place.

Even a newly promoted Dao Integration realm expert would not choose Heavenly Demon Sect if he wanted to make a name for himself!

Therefore, the only possibility was Ye Chen!

Only Ye Chen had the ability and audacity to do something like this!

“Pass down my order!”

“Issue the highest-ranking arrest warrant for Ye Chen!”

“Thirteenth Elder, I’ll have to trouble you to personally investigate the entire sequence of events after Ye Chen entered the city, destroyed the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, and then disappeared!”

“All of the other elders, send out an order to have the leaders of the sects meet me personally,” the Grand Elder looked at the other elders angrily and said.
