Chapter 162 Revenge

  The second update!

  ——

  The Great Chu Dynasty is vast and rich, with four seas, southern borders, northern barbarians, eastern oceans, and central plains. The four regions add up to tens of millions of miles, with countless sects and numerous cultivators hidden within. As the ruler of the Great Chu Dynasty, Huangfu Zhongling can be said to be supreme and unparalleled, with power that reaches the heavens.

  Bei Heng was just the Taishang elder of Yunjian Sect, the first sect in Nanjiang. In terms of status, he wasn't even one-thousandth of Chu Huang's. At this moment, hearing such astonishing news, it's imaginable how shocked he was. In his eyes, Bai Weiqing and the other two people's images suddenly became extremely lofty and revered beyond measure.

  "When he wakes up, please give him this jade strip." In the midst of Bei Heng's shock and speechlessness, Bai Yuqing had already prepared a sound-recording jade strip and handed it over.

  Beiheng didn't dare to be slow, and hurriedly took it with both hands, carefully putting it into the storage treasure. He smiled and said: "Fellow daoist can rest assured, this matter will be handled by Beiheng. Is there anything else you'd like to instruct?"

  Bai Wei Qing thought for a moment, then took out another token and handed it to Bei Heng. "This is my token of trust. Whether it's you or Chen Tang, if you ever get into trouble, don't hesitate to come find me at the White family in Xuan Tan Domain."

  Mystic Realm!

  Bei Heng's heart skipped a beat again, and in his mind, a legendary world of breathtaking beauty floated up. That world was the epitome of splendor, majesty, and grandeur, a place filled with countless legends and mighty warriors, where...

  When Beiheng woke up, Bai Weiqing and the other two had already disappeared. He lowered his head to look at the token in his hand, which was like jade but not jade, with a pure white color like snow. In the misty and hazy surroundings, an ancient and elegant character "Bai" appeared faintly, a single word that seemed to be dancing like a sword, powerful and majestic.

  "This token must be kept well, it might just be a great opportunity for me." Bei Heng carefully put away the token and finally let out a sigh of relief. Turning his head to look at Chen Xiao, his face had already become warm and gentle, and in his heart, he had also raised Chen Xiao's status by a large margin.

  Bei Heng knew that he had gained the favor of the mysterious Bai family today because he was blessed with Chen Yao's great luck, how could he still treat Chen Yao as an ordinary person?

  Whoosh... whoosh... whoosh...

  At this moment, countless sonic booms echoed around the Starfall Mountains, rising and falling in waves. Almost instantly, thousands of millions of dazzling lights flashed by.

  Bei Heng's eyes scanned the surroundings, and he immediately understood what was going on.

  Xing Luo Palace just activated the Jiugong Xing Sha Mie Xian Formation, and the commotion was really too great. The heavenly phenomenon of ten thousand thunderbolts pouring down from the sky could be noticed by anyone who wasn't blind.

  "Goodness! How did Meteorite Mountain end up like this?"

  "How terrifying! The entire Star Luo Palace has become a mess! Who did it? Could it be the Heavenly Fairy? You know that the Nine Palaces Star Killing Array is powerful enough to kill even a Golden Immortal!"

  "In one night, all chickens and dogs are gone, this Star Luo Palace has provoked how terrifying an enemy?"

  A dense crowd of cultivators, riding on rays of light, floated around the Starfall Mountains. These cultivators were from various major powers in Longyuan City, including the six major families and three major academies, as well as other seven major sects outside of Xingluo Palace. At this moment, looking at everything that seemed like ruins, everyone's expression was one of extreme shock.

  Xingluo Palace, with its profound foundation and unbroken lineage of tens of thousands of years, was a mighty force with tens of thousands of disciples under its banner. With Chai Shao, a cultivator who had achieved the state of Nirvana, holding down the fort, it was at the height of its power and stood at the pinnacle of the Southern Territory's cultivation world. Yet, in the blink of an eye, it has been reduced to ruins and become a land of death. Who wouldn't be shocked?

  "Huh? Look over there, that terrifying black and white vortex is actually a gathering of star-destroying thunderbolts. If this explodes, even the Earth Immortals will likely perish!"

  "Ah! There's still someone there!"

  "That is..."

  In an instant, everyone's gaze turned to the black and white vortex with a range of thousands of feet, and fell on Chen Tai and Bei Heng.

  "Great Elder!"

  "Chen Xiao!"

  Seeing Bei Heng and Chen Xiao, several cries of surprise suddenly rang out.

  Bei Heng raised his eyes and saw that the leader of the Flowing Cloud Sword Sect, Ling Kongzi, and other elders were also in the crowd. He immediately shouted: "So it's you, Ling Kongzi! You've come at just the right time. Now that the Star Luo Palace has been destroyed, take the sect's elders and disciples to search for treasures and supplies inside, and bring them all back to the sect."

  "Ah! Elder Taishang, this Star Luo Palace wouldn't be yours...?" Ling Kongzi said in astonishment.

  "Just let you do it, why so many useless words?" Beiheng's eyebrows rose in anger, and he shouted loudly.

  "Junior brother, obey the order!" Ling Kongzi hastily led the way, this time bringing 17 senior elders of the sect. As for disciples, he didn't bring any, after all, the brutal battle at Xingluo Palace was too terrifying, and it was easy to encounter unexpected dangers. He did this also with the safety of the sect's disciples in mind. However, now he regretted it, wishing he could summon all the disciples within the sect to join forces, thoroughly search and plunder, and completely empty out the various treasures left behind by Xingluo Palace.

  It's worth noting that Xingluo Palace is one of the eight major sects in Longtan City, with a profound foundation. Now that it has been destroyed and annihilated, how many treasures must have been left behind?

  At once, Lingkongzi ordered an elder to go back and fetch reinforcements, then led the other sixteen elders into the ruins of Meteorite Mountain, starting a search.

  As the leader of Liuyun Jianzong, Lingkongzi had visited the leader of Xingluo Palace, Tieyunzi, more than once. He was also very familiar with the layout of Xingluo Palace's treasure house, martial arts hall, and spiritual medicine garden. As soon as he entered the Meteorite Mountain, he rushed to these places where various treasures were hidden, just like a group of bandits breaking into houses. His experience was incredibly rich, and he knew how to be quick, accurate, and ruthless.

  This scene was seen by the monks of various forces around, and their hearts suddenly became hot. The Star Luo Palace was destroyed, but the wealth it left behind was a piece of fat meat. Who wouldn't want to take a bite?

  But at this moment, Beiheng let out a cold hum, the sound was as loud as a thunderclap in the sky, shocking the surrounding cultivators to wake up from their greed instantly.

  When they saw Beiheng's eyes filled with murderous intent, everyone couldn't help but feel a tightening in their hearts and completely gave up on the idea of getting a share.

  Who is Bei Heng?

  That is the Supreme Elder of the Flowing Cloud Sword Sect, a transcendent Earth Immortal with an extraordinary status. With this terrifying old monster sitting in town, who would still dare to make any rash moves?

  What's more important is that the monks around have already made up their minds, the downfall of Xingluo Palace is definitely related to Beiheng, and it was even caused by him!

  Think about it, even the entire Star Luo Palace was ruined by this old monster, who would still dare to pluck tiger whiskers from a tiger's mouth? What's the difference between that and seeking death?

  Since they couldn't get any benefits, the monks around them turned their heads and left. One reason was that they were afraid of causing misunderstandings with Beiheng, and the other was that they wanted to spread the news of Xingluo Temple's destruction back to their own forces as soon as possible. This was a huge piece of news, as Xingluo Temple's destruction would affect the layout of power and interests in Longyuan City in the future. No one dared to delay.

  "Hmph, it seems these guys know their place."

  Bei Heng let out a cold hum, raised his eyes to look at Chen Tai, but saw that the black and white vortex on top of his head had shrunk from a thousand feet in diameter to just a hundred feet. It wouldn't be long before it was completely drained.

  "What a freak! Within that thousand-meter range of black and white vortex, the surging power of stellar thunder is just like the Great River Zhang Jiang. How can his slender body possibly contain so much stellar thunder?" Bei Heng exclaimed again.

  Boom!

  A moment later, the black and white vortex on Chen's head was only the size of a millstone, which was sucked up by his giant whale-like mouth, and his tightly closed eyes also slowly opened at this moment.

  Crackling and popping!

  A whirlpool containing thunder, hurricane, stars, five elements and the meaning of yin-yang flashed in his eyes and returned to calmness.

  What eyes!

  Deep, clear, and seemingly the most dazzling star in the world, with an irresistible mysterious attraction that seems to be able to suck people's souls in!

  Chen's entire body, having undergone the tempering of the four magical powers of Taiyin, Taiyang, wind and thunder, became even more perfect. His skin was crystal clear and translucent, smooth and delicate, softer than water and whiter than jade. His long hair was jet black and flowed with a silky luster, making him look like he had been reborn from Nirvana, transformed and renewed, perfectly extraordinary.

  This physique may look slender and weak, but it's actually as hard as a Xuanji-grade treasure, and with just a squeeze, it can crush a Huang-grade treasure, extremely powerful.

  "Both the refinement of the body and the refinement of the breath have reached perfection in the Purple Mansion, only one step away from entering the Yellow Court realm. Soon, I will be able to enter the Cave Abode. When Seasonal Rain sees me again, he'll probably be shocked, after all, it's only been a few months since we last met, how could he possibly think that I would cultivate so quickly?"

  Chen Xiao seemed to recall Ji Yu's astonished expression, and a smile involuntarily floated on his lips. However, when he raised his eyes to scan the surroundings, he couldn't help but pause in surprise.

  Originally, the mountain was clear and beautiful, with a fairy-like atmosphere, but now it has turned into a scorched earth, broken walls and rubble, a desolate and bleak scene, like a abandoned ruin.

  In the depths of the ruins, Ling Kongzi, the leader of the Flowing Cloud Sword Sect, and a dozen or so others were digging something up, their faces filled with excitement. However, there was no sign of Bai Yuqing and her two companions.

  "How long has it been since this place became like this? Has the Star Luo Palace fallen? And what about Aunt White and the others?" Chen Xiao was bewildered, looking around in all directions as various doubts arose in his mind.

  "Just as you were cultivating, the Star Luo Palace was destroyed by that White Deity Elder." Bei Heng seemed to see Chen Yao's confusion and sighed: "A great sect that had survived for tens of thousands of years was reduced to ashes in a single day and night. The changes in the world are indeed unpredictable and sigh-worthy."

  "What about the three of them?" Chen Xiao was not interested in the downfall of Xing Luo Palace. He had long believed that with a disciple like Chai Shao, it was only a matter of time before the palace would perish.

  "This was left for you by the nun." Bei Heng handed Chen Yu a jade tablet, which was exactly what Bai Yuqing had left behind. "The three of them just left and went to the Su family's residence, planning to get rid of your heart disease."

  What?

  Bai Yi wants to help me destroy the Su family?

  Chen Zhuang had just taken over the jade tablet and hadn't even had time to look at it when he was stunned by Bei Heng's words.

  The Su family can be said to be Chen Yao's most hated enemy, the torn engagement letter, his grandfather's death, his younger brother's right hand being crippled... The various humiliations and sufferings he had endured since childhood were almost all caused by the Su family.

  It can be said that his ultimate goal of hard work and self-improvement over the years was to avenge himself. Now, the Li family has been destroyed by him, and the Su family has also suffered greatly, and he is getting closer and closer to his goal of revenge.

  However, the camel that starved to death was bigger than a horse. With his strength, he couldn't shake the foundation of the Su family, so he hid in the Flowing Cloud Sword Sect, waiting for the day when his strength would increase and completely destroy the Su family. Who would have thought that just now, Bai Wanjun had already gone to the Su family to avenge herself?

  "She... why is she so good to me?" Chen Xiao's emotions had reached a boiling point, and without hesitation, he used the Divine Wind Transformation Escape Technique to rush towards the Su residence.

  He didn't know why he had to do this, it was purely an impulse in his heart, an irrepressible impulse, as if only by seeing Bai Yuqing with his own eyes would he believe that all of this was real.

  "This kid!" Beiheng shook his head, then suddenly froze, "Right, if the Su family is destroyed, the treasures they left behind will also become ownerless... can't let others get them cheaply..."

  At once, Beiheng called out to Lingkongzi and ordered him to return to the sect and send some disciples to the Su family, while he himself flew swiftly towards the Su family.

  Before long, he faintly saw a fierce flame rushing straight up to the sky, and it was in the direction of the Su family!
