"I was foolish back then. I failed to keep the elders under me in check, which almost led to a great mistake. Thank you for your forgiveness, patriarch!" The ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds, Sheng Ping, bowed and said carefully.
He placed great emphasis on 'your words', as if he was afraid that Jianchen would go back on his word.
After all, he and the elders had already demonstrated their understanding of what had happened back then through their actions. They had even tacitly agreed to what had happened back then. If Jianchen really wanted to pay with blood, there would be no one left in the entire Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds.
This was because the Heavenly Moon Empire had already pledged themselves to the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan, becoming a subsidiary organisation of the Tianyuan family. All Jianchen needed was a single word, and the experts of the Heavenly Moon Empire would slaughter their way to the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds.
Jianchen glanced past the elders who had severed their arms coldly. Aside from the ancestor of the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds, there were five other Divine King level elders.
Whether it was Sheng Ping or the five Divine King level elders, they all shivered under Jianchen's gaze.
Jianchen's gaze seemed to be filled with endless sword Qi to them. Just his gaze alone made them feel like they had been stabbed by countless swords, which filled them with fear.
"Even his gaze has become so terrifying. Just what level of cultivation has the patriarch of the Tian Yuan clan reached? How has he managed to make such unbelievable progress in just a few short decades?" Sheng Ping thought. While he felt fear, he was also extremely shocked.
"Let's forget about what happened back then. However, if your Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds dares to do anything that will harm the Tianyuan family in the future, I will definitely wipe out your entire clan," Jianchen said emotionlessly and coldly.
"How would we dare …"
Jianchen left the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds and stood outside the protective formation. He subconsciously glanced in the direction of the Earth Spirit sect, but he did not go over in the end.
His grievances with the Earth Spirit sect had already been resolved under the divine king's assistance in the past. He used Ku Mu, an elder of the Earth Spirit sect, to serve the Tianyuan family for ten thousand years as compensation.
Right at this moment, Jianchen's heart suddenly throbbed, and he actually started deducing on a whim.
Deduction was an ability that every single expert possessed. They were able to rely on their own comprehension of the Grand Dao of the heavens and the earth to gain insight into a portion of the secrets of the heavens and the secrets of the heavens and the earth at an even deeper level.
However, according to each person's cultivation level, their level of comprehension towards the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth was different. Thus, their ability to deduce was also different.
Jianchen's eyes suddenly became as deep as the universe. Strands of law light flashed. At this moment, his eyes seemed to have transformed into the eyes of the Great Dao, the eyes of the Heavenly Dao, peering at the secrets of the world.
This process lasted for around eight minutes. In that short period of time, Jianchen had already exhausted half of the power of his soul.
Deducing the secrets of the heavens and peering into the past and future took an extremely great toll on the soul. Unless one was a powerful Primordial realm expert, they would not be able to last for long.
"So the ancestor of the Earth Spirit sect, Sang Tu, was so easy to talk to back then not because of the divine king but because Fairy Haoyue had paid a visit to the Earth Spirit sect." Jianchen understood some of the secrets through deduction.
Of course, he did not deduce that it was Fairy Haoyue. After all, Jianchen was still unable to deduce anything about Fairy Haoyue with his current strength. He only gained a vague understanding through the heavens.
"After I left the Cloud Plane in the past, the Tianyuan family faced a great calamity. They were almost wiped out by the ninth prince of the Blood Sun Empire. The reason was because the Flower of Ways planted in the Yin Mountains of Sevens Despair belonged to the ninth prince of the Blood Sun Empire. The reason why the ninth prince could find the Tianyuan family was because of the ancestor of the Earth Spirit sect, Sang Tu," Jian Chen murmured to himself. His voice was extremely cold. He had begun to look into it on a whim, and he really did manage to see through some unknown secrets.
In the next moment, he shot towards the Earth Spirit sect as a streak of light with Hei Ya.
Very soon, Jianchen arrived at the Earth Spirit sect. His status was no longer the same as before, so the Earth Spirit sect behaved the same as the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds. The ancestor of the Earth Spirit sect, Sang Tu, led a group of elders to receive him with great respect, welcoming Jianchen's visit.
In the main hall of the Earth Spirit sect, Jian Chen sat on the main seat without any hesitation. He did not make any small talk and directly looked at the ancestor of the Earth Spirit sect, Sang Tu. His face was sunken as he said, "Originally, my grievances with the Earth Spirit sect had already been resolved.
Originally, I didn't want to come to the Earth Spirit sect, but I still came in the end. Sang Tu, do you know why? "
"I don't know. Please enlighten me, patriarch," Sang Tu clasped his fist. He was filled with mixed feelings.
In the past, Jianchen was only an Overgod. In his eyes, Jianchen was an ant that he could crush with a wave of his hand. However, several decades later, Jianchen had become a great figure that even he had to bow to.
"That's because you almost destroyed the Tianyuan family back then. If the emperor of the Xi dynasty had not arrived in time, the Tianyuan family would have ceased to exist in the Dong 'an province right now," Jianchen said word by word. His voice was bone-chilling as it hid surging killing intent.
Sang Tu's heart sank when he heard that. He sensed that the situation was bad, but he acted like he knew nothing.
"No, I didn't. Patriarch, there must be some sort of misunderstanding."
"If you don't want others to know about it, then don't do it in the first place. Sang Tu, do you really think that no one knows about what you did back then just because you kept it a secret? It's impossible for the weak to keep secrets in the eyes of the strong, "Jianchen said coldly.
"Patriarch, I don't understand what you're saying. If you insist that I've harmed the Tian Yuan clan in the past, please show me proof, patriarch. Otherwise, I'll be punished.
I, Sang Tu, am not convinced. " Sang Tu clenched his teeth. In truth, he already understood what Jianchen was referring to. However, he was certain that Jianchen would not be able to produce any evidence because he had not left behind any clues. Even if he wanted to investigate, it would be impossible.
Jianchen ignored Sang Tu's protests. Instead, he continued, "Back then, the Daoist Sect of Calm Clouds took part in the assassination of me. I only got a few people involved to sever their own arms because they only targeted me. They didn't do anything to the people around me. As for you, you almost caused the destruction of the entire Tianyuan family. Back then, there were many lives in the Tianyuan family that were even more important than my own life. Yet, you almost caused them to be consigned to eternal damnation. Sang Tu, how should you be punished? "
Before Sang Tu could reply, Jianchen continued, "You can only atone for your crimes with your death!" With that, Jianchen shot toward Sang Tu as a streak of light. He moved with unbelievable speed, leaving Sang Tu with no time to react.
The streak of light shot past Sang Tu, stopping at the entrance of the main hall with his back to everyone.
Sang Tu's eyes instantly became lifeless, empty and lifeless. In the next moment, a thin line of blood appeared between his eyebrows. The line of blood grew larger and larger until finally, with the center of his forehead as the center, his entire head split open from the middle.
