Jianchen already knew that the ancestor of the Huanggu clan was Huang Luan's master, so he behaved rather politely. He did not radiate with any presence at all. Right now, he seemed just like an ordinary person, hovering in the air like an ordinary person.
The ancestor of the Huanggu clan smiled from ear to ear as he arrived before Jianchen with feigned excitement. He constantly showered Jianchen with compliments as if he was trying to get on his good side.
Jianchen still had no idea what had happened to Huang Luan and Huang Tianba, so he was extremely friendly with the ancestor of the Huanggu clan. After all, he was Huang Luan's master.
After exchanging some pleasantries with the ancestor, Jianchen cut straight to the chase. He asked, "Senior, may I ask if Luan 'er and senior Huang Tianba are with you?"
The ancestor's heart sank once more, but he remained calm on the surface. He smiled, "I knew that brother Jianchen would come to my humble abode to find my precious disciple and Huang Tianba. Unfortunately, brother Jianchen, you've come too late. My precious disciple has gone out to train long ago, and Huang Tianba isn't with me either."
"What? They're not with your clan?" Jianchen was stunned and asked in surprise.
"Yes, they're not with us. Perhaps they've gone out together. Brother Jianchen, if you want to find them, I'll contact you as soon as they return," the ancestor of the Huanggu clan said calmly. The ancestor of the Huanggu clan said leisurely. However, no one knew that his current emotions were the complete opposite of his composure. He yearned for Jian Chen to leave as soon as possible.
Every second that Jian Chen spent there, the ancestor of the Huanggu clan would become even more uneasy.
Jian Chen could not help but become confused when he heard what the ancestor of the Huanggu clan said. He had learnt from You Yue that ever since Huang Luan left Flame City and returned to the Huang family, she had never appeared again. There was not even a single piece of news.
When he first heard this, Jianchen had thought that Huang Luan had remained in the Huang family to cultivate diligently. However, he discovered that Huang Luan was not there at all when he visited the Huang family. As a result, only the Huanggu clan was left. Jianchen still found it rather strange that the ancestor of the Huanggu clan had gone out to train.
Suddenly, Jianchen expanded the senses of his soul, enveloping the entire Huanggu clan. He wanted to see if the situation was as the ancestor had said.
Jianchen's soul was extremely powerful. Coupled with the mysteries of his soul, it easily pierced through all the defenses and obstructions of the Huanggu clan, allowing him to see through all their secrets.
However, when the senses of Jian Chen's soul penetrated the tower at the very center of the Huanggu clan, his face immediately changed. A terrifying light immediately erupted from his indifferent eyes as he radiated with surging fury. Heavy killing intent filled his body as well.
Jianchen saw a beggar-like old man chained up in the secret room. Although the old man's hair was disheveled and his face was haggard, Jianchen still recognized him with a single glance. He was the person he had come to the Huang family for, Huang Tianba.
"Senior Huang!" Jianchen cried out. His eyes almost popped out of their sockets. He arrived before the tower in a flash and struck out with his hand. With a boom, the most sacred tower of the Huang family loudly exploded, reduced to dust by Jianchen's strike.
The fragments of the tower shot out in all directions, destroying quite a few buildings in the Huanggu clan. As the tower shattered, Huang Tianba, who had been trapped in a secret room at the very top of the tower, fell out of the sky as well.
With a flash, Jianchen appeared beside Huang Tianba in an instant, leaving behind an afterimage. He gently landed on the ground with Huang Tianba in his arms. His face had already paled.
The ancestor of the Huanggu clan paled in fright. He glanced at the furious Jianchen in fright and without any hesitation, he immediately fled into the distance as quickly as he could. However, he constantly cursed inside, "God dammit, how did this Jianchen know that I trapped Huang Tianba in the tower? He clearly didn't know before." Right now, the only thing the Huanggu clan cared about was their own survival. They did not even care about the lives of their clansmen.
Huang Tianba was obviously extremely excited that he had suddenly been saved. Just when he wanted to say something, he suddenly saw the ancestor of the Huanggu clan flee. His eyes immediately became filled with resentment as he called out, "Jianchen, don't let that bastard escape!"
"Senior Huang, don't worry. He won't be able to escape." Ice-cold killing intent shot out from Jianchen's eyes. With that, he immediately pursued the ancestor of the Huanggu clan.
Jianchen and the ancestor of the Huanggu clan chased through the air. They both used Spatial Force to travel, so they moved extremely quickly. However, their comprehension of the mysteries of the world was at the Seventh Heavenly Layer, so it was very difficult for them to close the distance between them after a while.
With a flip of his hand, Jianchen pulled out the Emperor Armament from his Space Ring. As he poured in Chaotic Force, the Emperor Armament immediately began to glow with a black light. The terrifying energy caused the space around it to distort, even creating tiny, pitch-black cracks.
Jianchen's battle prowess immediately skyrocketed after using the Emperor Armament. The terrifying presence caused the ancestor of the Huanggu clan to pale in fright. He was filled with despair.
Jianchen swung his sword and a huge, black sword Qi immediately shot out, shooting toward the ancestor with lightning-like speed.
The ancestor of the Huanggu clan wanted to dodge, but it was impossible for him to dodge the sword Qi with Jianchen's current strength. The difference between a Holy Emperor and a Saint Ruler was like the difference between heaven and earth.
"Argh!"
The sword Qi caught up to the ancestor of the Huanggu clan in the blink of an eye. It severed his legs, leaving only the upper half of his body intact. The excruciating pain caused the ancestor to shriek out in agony. Even his fleeing speed was affected, slowing down.
Jian Chen put away the Emperor Armament and quickly caught up to the ancestor of the Huanggu clan. This time, he did not show any mercy to the ancestor of the Huanggu clan. He ignored the ancestor's pained cries and dragged him back by his clothes.
At this moment, the Huanggu clan had descended into chaos. Jianchen's actions in the tower had alarmed all the clansmen of the clan. All of them stopped cultivating and stepped out of their rooms to check on the situation outside. All the upper echelon of the clan had gathered around Huang Tianba. They all stared at him in shock as disbelief flooded their faces.
They all recognized the ancestor of the Huang family, Huang Tianba, but they did not know what the ancestor of the Huanggu clan had done to him. Now that they suddenly saw Huang Tianba in such a state, they were all extremely shocked. They had no idea what had happened.
At this moment, a tremendous presence appeared in the distance. Jianchen angrily returned with the ancestor of the Huanggu clan. After landing on the ground, he walked toward Huang Tianba step by step with the ancestor in hand. His face was sunken and his eyes were cold. A heavy killing intent still lingered around him.
"Ancestor!"
"Ancestor!"
The clansmen of the Huanggu clan recognized the ancestor in Jianchen's hand with a single glance. Their faces all changed drastically as they cried out sorrowfully.
"Let go of the ancestor!" A middle-aged Heaven Saint Master bellowed out. He directly drew his Saint Weapon and charged toward Jianchen with bloodshot eyes.
"Piss off!" Jianchen bellowed out. He did not even glance at the person. He directly threw a punch, using his body to forcefully block the Saint Weapon.
"Ding!" Jianchen's fist collided with the Saint Weapon. The Saint Weapon was shattered like tofu by Jianchen's punch. Afterward, the fist did not slow down at all, landing on the Heaven Saint Master's chest mercilessly.
The Heaven Saint Master vomited blood and was blown away like a cannonball. He smashed through many buildings along the way before collapsing a hundred meters away. His entire chest had caved in. His organs had been reduced to dust by Jianchen's punch.
"Sixth elder!" The Heaven Saint Masters of the Huanggu clan all cried out. They immediately flew toward the middle-aged man that Jianchen had injured, only to discover that the sixth elder was dead. He had died on the spot from Jianchen's casual punch.
The clansmen of the Huanggu clan immediately fell silent when they saw how powerful Jianchen was. They all stared at Jianchen in both shock and fear. No one dared to say anything else. They all moved out of the way for Jianchen.
