Chaotic Sword God

“What are the origins of this junior who’s only an Immortal Emperor? He actually has the daughter of the Chaotic Star Heavenly Emperor caring so much about him, even willing to help him obtain the seed of ways at the risk of opposing a group of Immortal Exalts…” Zuo Dao from the Divine Valley of the Nine Heavens did not leave in a hurry. He also looked in the direction that Jian Chen had vanished; he felt very curious.

“The judgment of the daughter of a heavenly emperor is anything but ordinary. From how special she treats the independent cultivator, it can only mean that he is nowhere as simple as he seems. Looks like I should follow along and take a look. If it’s possible, I would like to use this opportunity to befriend him.” With that, Zuo Dao immediately left with his juniors from the Divine Valley of the Nine Heavens, leaving in the same direction as Jian Chen.

“Fellow Scarlet Fire, are you certain this person called Yang Yutian is an independent cultivator? Why does the daughter of the heavenly emperor, Xing Caijian, pay such close attention to him?” To another side, one of the five ancestors of the Heavenly Palace of Scaling Heights, the Profound Spirit Master, communicated to the Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt beside him.

The Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt of the Yi Immortal City did not originally possess a spot to enter the Skyscraping World. The only two spots he possessed had been purchased at great costs and were given to his first son Chi Yutian and his seventh son Chi Yun.

However, due to the fantastic relationship between his seventh son Chi Yun and the grandson of the Profound Spirit Master, the Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt had benefited. With the Heavenly Palace of Scaling Heights personally attending to the matter, he successfully exchanged for a spot in the outskirts of the Skyscraping World, which was gifted to the Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt.

As a result, the Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt who downright had no plans on entering the Skyscraping World in the first place was fortunate enough to go with them.

“Fellow Profound Spirit, you heard the conversation between Xing Caijian and Yang Yutian as well. All I am certain about is that Xing Caijian does not know Yang Yutian, but she’s willing to go out of her way to assist him. As a result, I feel more and more certain that this Yang Yutian might be hiding some great secret,” said the Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt. Right now, he felt both fearful and resentful of Yang Yutian whose origins were unknown.

He was fearful of how he had managed to kill the two Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts, the Wukun Master and the Void-perceiving Ancestor, through unknown methods.

Even the Fourth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt, the Space-purging Ancestor, had perished by his hands.

Just who on the Hall Brilliance Heaven did not fear such powers? Just who did not experience chills down their spine?

He was resentful over the fact that Jian Chen’s appearance had disrupted his plan. The two spots that were entirely within his arm’s reach were lost, forcing him to obtain these spots through other avenues at great costs.

“Some great secret? Exactly what kind of secret can pique the interest of the daughter of a heavenly emperor like this?” After hearing the Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt’s thought, the Profound Spirit Master was intrigued.

He silently looked in the direction that Jian Chen had left in before saying slowly, “Fellow Scarlet Fire, fellow Black Wind, are you interested in checking out this independent cultivator called Yang Yutian?”

The Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt smiled and said, “My ticket into the Skyscraping World was provided by you, fellow Profound Spirit, so I’ll follow any of your plans.”

The Profound Spirit Master smiled and said amicably, “Fellow Scarlet Fire, once our trip in the Skyscraping World concludes, you are welcome to visit our Heavenly Palace of Scaling Heights at any moment. I’ll receive you personally.”

The Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt was overjoyed. He clasped his fist and thanked him in a hurry. If he managed to forge a tie with the Heavenly Palace of Scaling Heights, the Yi Immortal City’s status would rise significantly on the Hall Brilliance Heaven despite being located on a different heaven.

At the very least, if peak organisations on the Hall Brilliance Heaven wanted to go after his Yi Immortal City, they would have to reconsider.

The person regarded as fellow Black Wind was an old man in black robes. He was a Third Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt.

Under the Profound Spirit Master’s invitation, the Black Wind Immortal Exalt did not decline. He nodded slowly.

Afterwards, the Black Wind Immortal Exalt, the Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt, and the Profound Spirit Master allowed their disciples to go and find their own fortunes, while the three Immortal Exalts traveled together and tailed behind Jian Chen.

However, before long, they encountered a familiar figure.

Zuo Dao of the Divine Valley of the Nine Heavens!

“Have you also come for Yang Yutian?” Zuo Dao looked at the three of them and said calmly.

The Profound Spirit Master nodded and said, “Fellow Zuo Dao, don’t tell me you’ve also become interested in him?”

Zuo Dao seemed to notice something. He smiled gently. “I’m afraid that my objective might be a little different from yours. I purely think Yang Yutian is an extraordinary person, so I’ve specially come in hopes of befriending him.”

“Fellow Zuo Dao, don’t tell me you failed to catch up to him?” the Profound Spirit Master looked around and said in surprise.

Zuo Dao nodded and sighed gently. “Yang Yutian might only be an Immortal Emperor, but his methods are extraordinary. I chased up to here before completely losing track of him. I have no idea where to find him anymore.”

When he heard that, the Profound Spirit Master narrowed his eyes with some disappointment.

Nearby, Jian Chen wore the Divine Armour of Heavenflight as he blended into the empty space around him silently, watching this.

When he looked at the Profound Spirit Master, an obscure hint of killing intent flashed through his eyes.

“Fellow Zuo Dao, Yang Yutian is probably hiding some great secret. Aren’t you interested at all?” the Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt asked.

“I’m obviously aware that he has his secrets, or why would the daughter of a heavenly emperor treat him like that? However, I’ve already said that my interest in Yang Yutian is perhaps different from why you’re interested in him,” Zuo Dao said gently. After saying that, he departed from there, making his way off with the disciples of the Divine Valley of the Nine Heavens.

After Zuo Dao had left, the Profound Spirit Master closed his eyes slowly. He used a secret technique to sense around carefully in an attempt to find any clues.

But very soon, he opened his eyes. He glanced around at the mist in the surroundings and said, “I can’t find any traces of him anymore. Yang Yutian’s presence completely vanished here. However, since he’s come for the seed of ways, he’ll make his way to the peak sooner or later.”

“C’mon, let’s wait in a place where he must pass by to reach the peak. It’ll take him tremendous effort to reach there with his strength as an Immortal Emperor, so it’ll be impossible for him to reach there before us.”

With that, the Profound Spirit Master left with the Scarlet Fire Immortal Exalt and the Black Wind Immortal Exalt.

Afterwards, a few more Immortal Exalts arrived, also having followed Jian Chen’s presence. After finding nothing, they all dispersed.

When no more people appeared, JIan Chen silently appeared inside the thick mist. His presence was entirely erased by the mask from the Illusionary Daemon race. He seemed to have become a part of it. At first glance, it was difficult to discover him.

He looked in the direction that the Profound Spirit Master had left in as his eyes gradually turned cold. He murmured softly, “I didn’t expect Xing Caijian’s actions to put me under the attention of so many people, with even some people prepared to wait for me on the path to the peak.”
