Chaotic Sword God

Looking at how speechless and emotional the Warring Old Freak had become, Jian Chen was surprised as well.

He had told him the truth to avoid antagonising a peak organisation like the War sect over some trifling matters. He had only wanted to make them stand down.

He had never imagined that the Warring Old Freak still held such sentiment towards the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. That was unexpected.

“Can you give me the memory crystal in your hand?” After a moment of silence, the Warring Old Freak spoke up. His attitude had changed significantly from before, no longer giving off any sense of aggression or forcefulness.

“Of course!” Jian Chen handed the memory crystal over to the Warring Old Freak without any hesitation.

The Warring Old Freak accepted the memory crystal sternly. He looked at Jian Chen calmly and said, “Don’t worry, I won’t divulge your identity. I can’t help the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, but I definitely won’t go out of my way to harm anyone from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. That’s not just my promise, but also my bottom line when it comes to cultivation.”

“You’re worrying too much, senior Warring. Actually, I was hoping that you’d tell the Immortal Feather sect about me,” said Jian Chen.

“You want to kill the Wayless Immortal Exalt of the Immortal Feather sect?” The Warring Old Freak seemed to read Jian Chen’s thoughts, which led to an immediate frown. He said sternly, “That’s not a good idea. The Wayless Immortal Exalt is different from an Immortal Emperor great elder. He’s one of the ancestors of the Immortal Feather sect. If someone like that perishes, the Immortal Feather sect will definitely be infuriated. It’ll lead to a terrifying storm. Unless you possess the strength to crush everything, the outcome will be unimaginable.”

“And, if an Immortal Exalt ancestor of the Immortal Feather sect were to die on our Hall Brilliance Heaven, that would be a disaster for our Hall Brilliance Heaven.”

The Warring Old Freak shook his head without hesitation. “I can’t help you with this, nor do I have the courage to.”

With the memory crystal in his possession, the Warring Old Freak left. As soon as he emerged from the guest room, the power that shrouded the place instantly vanished as well.

“How is it, senior Warring?”

“Did you find any clues, senior Warring?”

.....

…

The dozen or so Immortal Exalts from peak organisations waiting outside all spoke up in concern.

“I’ve already found important evidence regarding the Fiend Soul Banner. We’ll talk about it once we head back!” The Warring Old Freak did not say much. He called out to everyone and left.

“He’s already found important evidence? This Immortal Emperor called Yang Yutian really has left me surprised…”

“We spent many days searching arduously, only to find nothing. As soon as we came here, we grasped important evidence. Looks like this person is anything but simple…”

......

…

The dozen or so Immortal Exalts glanced at Jian Chen in surprise. He had already emerged from the guest room. However, they did not talk much, leaving with the Warring Old Freak.

After these Immortal Exalts had left, a middle-aged woman in white robes suddenly appeared near the courtyard where Jian Chen was located. Her presence was concealed, where none of it leaked out. She was silent like a ghost. Even regular Immortal Exalts would struggle to detect her existence.

She was one of the three ancestors of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment, the Flying Leaf Ancestor, a Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt!

The Flying Leaf Ancestor stood outside the courtyard quietly. Her eyes were frosty, filled with chilling killing intent as she stared straight at the entrance of the courtyard.

At this moment, an old man in embroidered robes made his way over from the distance. The old man radiated with the vague presence of an Immortal Emperor. He seemed to be walking, but he would traverse a very great distance with each step.

The old man was elder Ling of the Merchant Union of Star Brilliance.

In just a few steps, elder Ling arrived outside the courtyard. Immediately, he noticed the Flying Leaf Ancestor who was nearby. His elderly eyes narrowed, clearly having recognised her. He stopped and clasped his fist towards the Flying Leaf Ancestor from afar.

However, right when he was about to speak up, the Flying Leaf Ancestor suddenly looked at him. Her chilling gaze made him stiffen as coldness filled his bones.

Elder Ling was startled; he became unprecedentedly stern.

However, the gaze vanished as quickly as it came. In merely a few seconds, the gaze vanished. The Flying Leaf Ancestor was gone as well.

Elder Ling’s expression changed. He stood where he was in silence for a while before sucking in a deep breath in the end. He entered the courtyard politely and personally handed over the batch of heavenly resources to Jian Chen.

The batch of heavenly resources were all for refining recovery pills. Jian Chen had specially prepared them for the Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal disciples who participated in the Divine Formation of the Heavens.

“Oh right, I saw the Flying Leaf Ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment near the entrance earlier. You must be careful, fellow.” Elder Ling described what he saw before he left.

“The Flying Leaf Ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment? She still has the spare energy to come here? If nothing goes wrong, the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment will face great trouble very soon.” Jian Chen smiled without much concern.

When he heard that, elder Ling shuddered inside. His eyes flickered with light. He realised something very soon, leaving in a hurry.

“The Warring Old Freak went to the Immortal Rising City. Soon after, he said he had grasped important evidence. Senior brother Transcension, I think I already know who senior brother Space-purging’s murderer is,” the Flying leaf Ancestor said resentfully in one of the three towers standing in the forbidden grounds of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment.

“Are you saying the person who killed junior brother Space-purging is the person who took the Energy-devouring Furnace and the Heaven-locking Chains?” the Transcension Ancestor’s clone said.

“That’s right. After all, senior brother Space-purging’s murderer is the only person that could possess the evidence that the Fiend Soul Banner was in his possession,” the Flying Leaf Ancestor said as she ground her teeth in hatred.

But shortly afterwards, the Flying Leaf Ancestor became worried. “Senior brother Transcension, I’m worried that the Warring Old Freak will come after us now that he has obtained so-called important evidence.”

“What are you panicking for? I refuse to believe they have actually obtained important evidence…” the Transcension Ancestor said extremely calmly.

However, as soon as he said that, tremendous presences enveloped the entire Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment.

Figures hovered around the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment. There were over a hundred of them, surrounding the entire sect.

Apart from around a dozen Immortal Exalts, the rest were all Immortal Emperors. All of them were murderous. Their gazes were frosty.

There were not a lot of them, but they already represented the will of the entire Hall Brilliance Heaven to a certain extent.

The Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment immediately became chaotic. A dozen or so Immortal Exalts and several dozen Immortal Emperors. This was a group even larger than last time.

“Oh no, they’ve come with such aggression. Don’t tell me they’ve really come into possession of some kind of evidence?” The Flying Leaf Ancestor also sensed the situation outside. Her expression changed as she became frantic.

She could already delicately sense that the situation this time was completely different from last time.

“Don’t panic!” The Transcension Ancestor seemed much more composed. His clone also looked outside as the light in his eyes flickered with surprise and uncertainty.

In the next moment, the Transcension Ancestor had already vanished from the tower, appearing before the Immortal Exalts.
