When the news of Chu Xiu's death spread throughout the Pugilistic World, everyone's first reaction was disbelief.
Chu Xiu, who rebuilt the Kunlun Devil Cult and called himself the Devil Lord, who caused the entire Pugilistic World to be powerless against him, died just like that?
Moreover, the reason for Chu Xiu's' death 'was still unclear.
The details of what happened in the space in Licheng were not revealed because the matter was a little complicated and involved too many ancient secrets.
It was not a big deal for experts like Luo Mo and Xu Ci to know about these things. However, if other warriors knew about it, it would actually bring more trouble.
Of course, this was only one of the reasons. The deeper reason was that even they did not know how Chu Xiu died.
Although Chu Xiu was drowned in the collapsing space in the end, if not for the strange seven blood arrows, Chu Xiu would definitely be fine. Perhaps he would have already brought the things on Dugu Weiwei back to the Kunlun Devil Cult to count the spoils.
So the key question now was, who shot the seven blood arrows?
Chu Xiu had too many enemies in the Pugilistic World. There were simply too many people who wanted to kill him.
However, the power of the seven blood arrows was so strong and so strange. In the Pugilistic World, it would be easy to find someone who had such power and also had a grudge against Chu Xiu.
The Lord of Tianmen, Jun Wushen, was the most suspicious person.
Of course, this was not important. No one would go to Jun Wushen to verify this matter.
The dead Chu Xiu naturally had to live a better life than the living Chu Xiu.
The death of such a great demon was a good thing for the entire Pugilistic World.
So when the news of Chu Xiu's death was known, almost the entire Pugilistic World was cheering. However, there were some other things that were hidden.
For example, the Beggar Sect was also cheering. Their Sect Leader, who had been missing for decades, had finally returned. They would no longer be treated as stinky beggars.
Currently, at the peak of Kunlun Mountain, inside the newly built Kunlun Devil Cult, almost all of the higher-ups belonging to the Kunlun Devil Cult were in disbelief.
The Kunlun Devil Cult had just been established, and it had just forced the Alliance of the Righteous Sects to retreat. It was currently at its peak, and in the future, it might be able to recreate the power of the Kunlun Devil Cult.
But now, Chu Xiu was dead. The leader of their Kunlun Devil Cult was dead. What kind of joke was this?
As soon as this news came out, the Kunlun Devil Cult's internal structure was already somewhat unstable.
The newly joined disciples were still fine. They didn't have the strength, and the Kunlun Devil Cult wasn't a place they could come and go as they pleased.
The real troublesome ones were Qin Chaoxian, Yu Moya, and the other former members of the Yinmo Clan.
They had originally joined Chu Xiu under half-coercion. Now that Chu Xiu was dead, it was hard to guarantee that they wouldn't have other thoughts.
Qin Chaoxian coughed and said, "Everyone, now that Official Chu has passed away, should we …"
Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Lu Jiang He.
"Who said Chu Xiu is dead?"
Qin Chaoxian was stunned and said, "That's what the Pugilistic World says. And didn't you see the scene at that time?"
Lu Jiang He snorted and said, "We didn't see Chu Xiu die. We just didn't see Chu Xiu come out of that space."
Qin Chaoxian smiled bitterly and said, "Isn't that the same thing?"
"Of course it's not the same thing!"
Lu Jiang He said coldly, "Chu Xiu has the Immortal Demon Core in his body. As long as the Demon Core is not destroyed, the True Spirit will not die. There will always be a trace of life left."
Yu Moya said, "But the Immortal Demon Core is not truly immortal. It's enough to destroy two world passages. If it collapses, the True Spirit will not be able to survive. Even if Zhong Shenxiu and Jun Wushen come, they probably won't be able to withstand it."
"They can't withstand it, but that doesn't mean that the boy Chu Xiu can't!"
Lu Jiang He glanced at the people around him. Strands of Evil Blood Qi spread out from his body, and a dignified pressure spread out. He said coldly, "What hasn't our Holy Sect seen? That boy Chu Xiu has also died more than once or twice. In any case, I don't believe that he's really dead.
Hold on for me. At this time, if anyone dares to betray me, don't blame me for not showing mercy!
Do you know how my Holy Sect dealt with traitors in the past? They crippled their martial arts and meridians and hung them on the flagpole in front of the Dragon Gate like dried chickens. When they're dried, they'll be thrown out to feed the wild dogs! "
Lu Jiang He's usual unruly manner was gone. The smell of blood in his words was so thick that it was frightening. No one doubted that he was lying.
Only then did everyone recall that although this person wasn't very reliable in the past, he was still the strongest among all the hall masters of the Kunlun Demon Sect 500 years ago. There were only a handful of cultivators of the same level who could stand shoulder to shoulder with him. In fact, he had even crossed paths with a legendary existence like Ning Xuanji.
In the past, the Blood Demon Hall had followed the Kunlun Devil Cult to conquer the world. His Blood Demon Divine Art had been refined using the blood of a group of powerhouses from 500 years ago!
When Mei Qinglian and Chu Wuji saw that Lu Jiang He had subdued everyone, they couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief at the same time.
Although they had previously felt that Lu Jiang He was a little unreliable, it now seemed that the one who had the ability to subdue the situation was still Lu Jiang He.
Mei Qinglian was a woman after all. When Chu Xiu was still around, everyone knew that she was Chu Xiu's trusted aide, so they gave her face.
Chu Wuji's strength and experience were still shallow after all. It might make sense if Old Wei came, but Chu Wuji didn't have the qualifications to subdue the situation at all.
Others like Lu Fengxian, Luo Fei-hung, and Chu Xiu's good friends, although they would never betray him, they didn't have the slightest foundation in the Kunlun Devil Cult, so their words didn't matter at all.
Following Lu Jiang He's words, Shang Tianliang also said in a deep voice, "If Merchant City is merged into the Kunlun Devil Cult, everyone will suffer together, and everyone will prosper together. Not to mention that no one saw Chu Xiu die with their own eyes, even if that kid Chu Xiu really died, why, do you still want to disband? "
With Shang Tianliang, a powerhouse at the Heaven and Earth Elemental Enlightenment realm, confirming his attitude, everyone present immediately fell silent.
In terms of strength, no one could compare to Shang Tianliang.
After Chu Xiu died, everyone originally thought that Shang Tianliang would stand on his own, but Shang Tianliang wouldn't do such a short-sighted thing.
He had already brought out all the people from Merchant City. Not to mention that Chu Xiu wasn't here, even if Chu Xiu was here, he would still be a threat to him.
However, for such a long time, Shang Tianliang had followed Chu Xiu on expeditions everywhere, fighting this and that. His interests had long been closely aligned with Chu Xiu and the Kunlun Devil Cult.
In the eyes of other Jianghu people, he was on Chu Xiu's side. At this time, even if Shang Tianliang wanted to leave Kunlun and stand on his own, although he didn't have to worry about anything, the whole of Merchant City would definitely be suppressed.
Merchant City's current status was similar to that of the Kunlun Devil Cult's subsidiary sects 500 years ago.
Even if one's name wasn't Kunlun Devil Cult, others would still think that one was a member of the Kunlun Devil Cult and would definitely not tolerate it.
At this moment, Lu Jiang He suddenly saw Master Yuan Ji, who was poking his head out from the crowd.
He directly went over to Master Yuan Ji and pulled him out. With a fierce expression, he said, "Didn't you get the inheritance of the Heaven Weeping Demon Lord? Just in time, tell me how Chu Xiu is faring now. "
Master Yuan Ji said with a long face, "Since such a big thing happened, I definitely have to do some divination first, but there's no result at all. Official Chu has karmic reincarnation on him. Using ordinary divination methods, there's no way I can tell anything. Only by using items that are extremely close to him can I find some clues. "
Lu Jiang He scratched his head and said, "How close to him?"
Master Yuan Ji said, "Very close to him. It even needs to have a certain karmic connection with Official Chu."
Hearing what Master Yuan Ji said, Lu Jiang He scratched his head even more.
Where could he find such an item? He did have Chu Xiu's clothes, but such items had no karmic connection with Chu Xiu.
At this moment, Mei Qinglian stood up and said, "I seem to have such an item."
Lu Jiang He looked at Mei Qinglian with a strange gaze.
'You even have such an item? How close are you to Chu Xiu?'
Mei Qinglian glared at him angrily. "What are you thinking? I'm just keeping it for Chu Xiu. He might have forgotten about it himself. "
As she spoke, Mei Qinglian took out a few weapon fragments. Everyone found them familiar. They turned out to be Chu Xiu's weapon, the Heavenly Demon Dance.
The Heavenly Demon Dance had shattered during the battle in the Six Illusory Realms. Back then, when Chu Xiu faked his death and the Heavenly Demon Dance had shattered, Wei Shuya and the others had taken away the fragments of the Heavenly Demon Dance as a memento. However, after Chu Xiu had returned with a new divine weapon, he had forgotten about the Heavenly Demon Dance. Instead, Mei Qinglian had been keeping it.
In fact, this saber had been with Chu Xiu for the longest time. Moreover, it could be considered to have been personally forged by Chu Xiu back then. Naturally, it was extremely close to him.
Moreover, the Heavenly Demon Dance had followed Chu Xiu for a long time. The karmic connection between them was naturally very deep.
Master Yuan Ji's eyes lit up and he said, "If we have it, there shouldn't be a problem."
After saying that, Master Yuan Ji started to set up a formation, using all his might to make deductions.
His attainments in the Dao of Divination had already reached the grandmaster level. Later on, he had obtained the Skycry Demon Venerable's legacy. Although he could not say that he was on par with Xu Jing and the others, he was actually not too far off.
However, no matter how hard he tried, he could not find Chu Xiu's figure. He could not even find a blurry phantom image.
After a long while, Master Yuan Ji's head was already perspiring slightly. He let out a long breath and said, "Hall Master Lu, I've already tried my best. Even when I used the Heavenly Demon Dance to divine, I couldn't find any traces of Official Chu. He … He is no longer in this world."
Lu Jiang He lifted him up, his eyes wide like bells. "What did you say? After obtaining the Skycry Demon Venerable's legacy, you managed to divine such a bullsh * t result? "
Master Yuan Ji quickly said, "Hall Master Lu, calm down first. Although I didn't manage to divine any traces of Official Chu, it's not like I can't divine whether Official Chu is dead or alive.
Life and death are the easiest to divine. Life is life, and death is death.
"However, it's clear that Official Chu's current state is beyond my capabilities. In any case, he definitely won't die so easily."
