Deep within the Flaming Sun Palace, outside the secret realm.
"Parasol Tree Formation!"
Princess Chi Hong exclaimed in shock when she sensed the energy ripples coming from the entrance of the cave.
"What's wrong?"
Liu Ping and the rest ran over as well, looking bewildered.
"What are you guys doing?"
At this moment, Xie Tianhong's expression turned cold. His eyes were filled with intense killing intent as he looked at the two guards nearby and shouted sternly.
The black light in the eyes of the two guards dissipated. Suddenly, they shuddered and woke up.
The two of them sensed the energy ripples coming from the Parasol Tree Secret Realm and their faces turned pale. They finally realized what had happened.
However, the Parasol Tree Formation had been activated and the two of them were unable to deactivate it.
"I, I …"
One of the guards looked at Xie Tianhong as though he wanted to explain something.
Xie Tianhong interrupted him and said coldly, "The two of you have evil intentions and activated the Parasol Tree Formation prematurely. You have committed a grave mistake!"
Before he finished his sentence, Xie Tianhong suddenly struck. His slender fingers brushed across the foreheads of the two guards.
A thin cut appeared on the foreheads of the two guards. Gradually, a trace of blood seeped out and grew larger!
Finally, the foreheads of the two guards slid down neatly.
Xie Tianhong had sliced their heads into two. Their Essence Spirits did not even have the chance to escape and they died on the spot!
The two guards were also Level 9 Heavenly Immortals. They had not expected Xie Tianhong to be so ruthless against them!
"If I don't kill the two of you, how can the Flaming Sun Immortal Kingdom answer to Qiankun Academy?"
Xie Tianhong looked at the two corpses and said coldly.
This unforeseen event happened extremely suddenly. Even Princess Chi Hong and company were stunned for a moment.
However, Princess Chi Hong reacted quickly.
She took a deep look at Xie Tianhong and sped towards the palace. She said, "I'll look for the others. Liu Ping, hurry and inform Elder Zhong and the rest to come over!"
The sudden activation of the Parasol Tree Formation was indeed done by the two guards.
However, Princess Chi Hong was not a fool. She could tell that there was something fishy going on.
Xie Tianhong's appearance was too coincidental!
The moment he appeared, the two guards activated the Parasol Tree Formation.
After that, Xie Tianhong killed the two of them on the spot. Rather than saying that he was giving Heaven and Earth Academy an explanation, it was better to say that he was silencing them!
Xie Tianhong had an indifferent expression as the corners of his mouth curled into a smile. He did not stop Princess Chi Hong and company from leaving.
Even if someone came over and closed the Wutong Grand Array, Su Zimo would have already been reduced to ashes.
Actually, he had many ways to kill Su Zimo in the territory of the Flaming Sun Immortal Empire.
However, Su Zimo was the top ranker of the Earth Rankings after all. If they killed him openly, it would draw the hostility of the Qiankun Academy. On the other hand, they would also be criticized by everyone.
If he were to kill them quietly, it would be difficult for him to show off his skills. It would also be difficult for him to show off in front of Fairy Mengyao.
And now, he had used a secret technique to kill Su Zimo in the Wutong Mystery Realm with the help of the two guards. Even if someone saw through it, there was no evidence and they could do nothing to him.
However, anyone who was observant would be able to tell that this was his doing!
This was the effect that Xie Tianhong wanted to achieve!
When the time came, there would be many explanations for Su Zimo's death. He just needed to get people to spread the news and it would not affect the Flaming Sun Immortal Empire in any way.
On the other side.
Feng Yin, who was resting with his eyes closed, suddenly sent a message to the cultivator behind him with his spiritual consciousness. "Su Zimo activated the Wutong Grand Array and has died in the Wutong Mystery Realm. Spread the news and let the various forces come and take a look."
"Alright!"
The cultivator from the Imperial Wind Monastery responded and turned to leave.
"The top ranker of the Earth Rankings?"
Feng Yin had a mocking expression as he muttered to himself, "Su Zimo, you have become the shortest life of the top ranker of the Earth Rankings. You are the biggest joke."
...
"Wutong Grand Array!"
When Xie Qingcheng heard Princess Chi Hong's words, her expression changed. She quickly took out a Message Talisman from her storage bag and tore it into pieces.
"If we want to close the Wutong Grand Array, I'm afraid we will need a Perfected Immortal."
Xie Qingcheng said and sped towards the direction of the Wutong Mystery Realm with Princess Chi Hong.
Not long after, the two of them arrived at the place.
In just a short while, many cultivators had gathered outside the Wutong Mystery Realm. There were people from the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom, the Mountain Sea Immortal Sect and other major forces.
It was a big deal that the top ranker of the Earth Rankings had died in the Wutong Mystery Realm!
These cultivators had not left yet and they hurried over to join in the fun.
"I heard that Su Zimo is dead?"
"It is said that the Wutong Grand Array was activated. Even Heaven Immortals cannot survive under this grand array!"
"He just became the top ranker of the Earth Rankings. I didn't expect him to encounter such a calamity."
Many cultivators had different expressions as they discussed softly.
When Xie Qingcheng and Princess Chi Hong arrived, they pushed through the crowd and came to the front.
Xie Qingcheng looked at the two guards who had died tragically. She then looked at Xie Tianhong and asked in a deep voice, "What happened?"
"I don't know why, but the two of them suddenly went crazy and activated the Wutong Grand Array. I couldn't stop them in time."
Xie Tianhong did not even look at Xie Qingcheng. His tone was indifferent as though he was talking about something insignificant.
"Suddenly went crazy?"
Xie Qingcheng was still staring at Xie Tianhong's face. She lowered her voice and said slowly, "Based on what I know, your Bewitching Spirit Technique has already been cultivated to the peak!"
Xie Tianhong still did not look at Xie Qingcheng and merely asked, "What are you trying to say?"
"Tianhong, why did you suddenly return to the palace? Furthermore, why did you do it so secretly without informing anyone?" Xie Qingcheng asked again.
"Why?"
Xie Tianhong raised his brow slightly. "Do I have to report my return to the palace to you, Xie Qingcheng?"
Xie Qingcheng took a deep breath and did not get angry. Instead, she continued asking, "Isn't it too much of a coincidence that you suddenly appeared after returning to the palace and activated the Wutong Grand Array?"
"Are you suspecting me?"
Finally, Xie Tianhong turned around and looked at Xie Qingcheng's beautiful face with a cold gaze. His tone was sinister.
"I wouldn't dare."
Even though she said that, Xie Qingcheng did not avoid his gaze and insisted, "I merely wish to seek an explanation from Brother Tianhong."
"Hmph!"
Xie Tianhong's expression darkened as he chided, "Xie Qingcheng, watch your tone. Think about your background and who you are talking to!"
"You are just an idle county king. How dare you question me and ask me to explain?"
The Flaming Sun Immortal King had many children. Although they were all county kings and princesses, their statuses were vastly different.
For example, Xie Tianhong presided over Spirit Dawn County and ruled over thousands of miles of territory. He had a high status and authority, but Xie Qingcheng only had the title of a county king.
The words' your background 'that Xie Tianhong mentioned stabbed at the wound deep in Xie Qingcheng's heart!
Xie Qingcheng subconsciously clenched her fists as she lowered her gaze. Her seemingly calm face hid immense anger and hatred!
Princess Chi Hong seemed to have thought of something. She reached out her hand and gently held Xie Qingcheng's fist, giving her a trace of warmth.
