CHAPTER 1491: Chapter 1491
The reaction of the Eternal River Immortal King was extremely swift. After Lie Kong was killed by Ning Qi, he'd used his connections at the first possible moment to close the entrance and exit of the Dao Development Immortal City. To him, this required an extremely great price to be able to accomplish this. Otherwise, the entrance and exit of the Dao Development Immortal City wouldn't be so easily sealed, and there were even stronger Immortal Kings above him that he had to bribe.
After sealing the entrance, the subordinates of the Eternal River Immortal King frantically searched for traces of Ning Qi. After questioning, the people guarding the city confirmed that they did not see Ning Qi leave. This made the Eternal River Immortal King even more certain that Ning Qi was still hiding in the Dao Yan Immortal City.
Pudu Immortal King Palace.
Ye Zhen, the third disciple of Immortal King Heng He, was standing respectfully before Immortal King Pudu.
"I heard that Lie Kong was killed?"
Immortal King Pudu said indifferently.
"That's right. That's why Master sent me here. He wants to ask Immortal King Pudu about the background of the cultivator who killed Lie Kong."
Ye Zhen said respectfully.
"Hehe, you're asking me about his background? Is the Eternal River Immortal Emperor thinking that the cultivator is somehow related to me? This is a misunderstanding. "
The corners of Immortal King Pudu's mouth curved into a faint sneer. "Go back and tell Heng He to look for the person who killed his disciple. Don't even think about framing Immortal King Palace."
"Immortal King Pudu, Master definitely doesn't mean that. It's just that that cultivator once shone brightly in the selection competition under your command. That's why I want to ask about his background."
Ye Zhen said in a neither servile nor overbearing manner.
He was the disciple with the best aptitude under the command of the Eternal River Immortal King. Even his Eldest Senior Brother and Second Senior Brother were no match for him. He had only cultivated for a little over a thousand years, and he was much younger than Lie Kong. Ye Zhen was quite famous in the Dao Development Celestial City for becoming a Three Tribulation Creator at such a young age. Naturally, he was not too afraid of the Pudu Immortal King. In his heart, he was very certain that if he was given a few thousand years, he would definitely become a Immortal King and be on equal footing with the Pudu Immortal King and the others.
"I've said it before, I don't know anything about this person. In fact, if it wasn't for your newly advanced junior brother, I planned to take him as my personal disciple. I gave Heng He Immortal King face and didn't even allow him to enter the Void Domain. If he continues to be so overbearing, I'll set up an arena and fight him. What do you think?"
Immortal King Pudu's voice grew cold.
"Sorry for the intrusion. I'll take my leave first."
Ye Zhen cupped his fists expressionlessly.
After he left, Immortal King Pudu murmured to himself, "Interesting, Mu Lingqing should be a Three Tribulations Master of Creation, right? How could he be knocked out by him with just one punch? How far has this kid's cultivation base advanced? What a pity … What a pity … "
After a month of martial law, Heng He Immortal King used all kinds of methods, but he still failed to capture Ning Qi. The only useful information he had was that he had learned from the Alchemist Alliance that Ning Qi was the Commander of the Dark Night Celestial Dynasty's Jiangnan City. Ning Qi was currently involved in two murder cases. One of them was that Ning Qi had killed Pill Emperor Bodhi's disciple, Pill Venerable Mad Dragon. The second one was that he was suspected to have killed Li Chengtian, a genius disciple of the Nine Serenities Demon Sect. Both cases happened in the Sunset Night Celestial Dynasty's Pill Vein.
In addition, there was another piece of news that he had no idea whether it was true or not. It was about the battle between Ning Qi and Pill Emperor Sunset Night. There was no substantial evidence for this news, so he could not determine whether it was true or not. However, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that it was an exaggeration!
Heng He Immortal King Palace.
"Master, if this kid is really the Commander of the Alchemist Alliance, why don't we negotiate with them and ask them to hand him over?"
Ye Zhen stood behind Heng He Immortal King and said in a low voice.
Mu Lingqing lowered his head and said nothing.
Heng He Immortal King still had two disciples, but this time, they had entered seclusion. Lie Kong's death was serious enough for Heng He Immortal King to call them out.
Heng He Immortal King's expression was cold. After a moment of silence, he said indifferently, "Pass down the order, we don't need to care about this matter anymore."
"What? Master, Little Junior Brother died in vain? How will the world view you, Master … "
Mu Lingqing was slightly startled and said hurriedly.
Ye Zhen looked at Heng He Immortal King calmly. Based on his understanding of his master, what he said must be reasonable.
"Lie Kong's Samsara Immortal Pill was personally refined by Pill Emperor Subhuti. I owe him a huge favor, but unfortunately, he's dead now. I've wasted most of my efforts. The murderer must be caught, but now that Pill Emperor Subhuti is furious, he's sending people to look for this kid. If we go forward and ask the Alchemist Alliance to hand him over, it'll inevitably make them angry. Why don't we wait until they catch him?"
Heng He Immortal King said indifferently.
After a pause, he continued, "Just spread the news. When the Alchemist Alliance catches that kid, they'll definitely come to me."
"I understand!"
Mu Lingqing suddenly understood.
Ning Qi killed Pill Venerate Berserk Dragon. This was already an extremely embarrassing matter for the Alchemist Alliance. Instead of asking for Ning Qi at this time and being treated as adding insult to injury, it was better to keep silent. When Pill Emperor Subhuti catches Ning Qi, there's no reason for him not to inform Heng He Immortal King Palace. After all, it was a cultivator from the Alchemist Alliance who killed Heng He Immortal King's new disciple. In this way, Pill Emperor Subhuti would definitely be grateful for Heng He Immortal King's silence.
Taking a step back, Ning Qi was the commander of the Alchemist Alliance. Even if they couldn't catch him, the Alchemist Alliance would still have to give them an explanation. As for the price, it would definitely satisfy Heng He Immortal King.
At the same time.
Mu Ye's Dan Meridian.
In a large hall, Shen Bai, Gongsun Ziyun, and Wu Dong stood side by side. Not far away, there were two figures sitting on armchairs.
One of them was Pill Emperor Mu Ye. He was currently sitting on the lower seat.
An old man with white hair and a white beard sat on an armchair at the head of the table. His long eyebrows drooped down to his chin, but his face was rosy and full of vigor. However, because of a faint killing intent, no one dared to look him in the eye.
This person was Pill Venerate Berserk Dragon's master, Pill Emperor Subhuti. He was also the strongest Pill Emperor in the Alchemist Alliance! An Eight Tribulation Creator.
"That's what happened. Recently, I received a notice from Dao Development Immortal City. It said that Ning Beixuan killed Heng He Immortal King's new disciple, Lie Kong."
Pill Emperor Subhuti had been in seclusion and only came out a few days ago. When he heard about Pill Venerate Berserk Dragon's death, he immediately came to Mu Ye's Alchemy Vein.
"Oh? Heng He Immortal King's new disciple? Earlier, he asked me to refine an Immortal Cycle Pill for him. I heard that it was for this kid. Now he's also killed by Ning Beixuan? "
Pill Emperor Subhuti raised his eyebrows and looked at Pill Emperor Mu Ye indifferently.
"That's what the news said. As for whether it's true or not, I have no way of knowing. However, I've already sent a message to the local commander of the Alchemist Alliance to cooperate with my men to search for traces of this kid near Dao Development Immortal City. As long as he appears again, we'll definitely be able to suppress him!"
