"I do not know. I only received a voice transmission before South Manor Garden was completely destroyed. It was said that a group of experts suddenly attacked. They set up a massive array that could be described as an inescapable net. Perhaps no one survived," the subordinate answered Chu Pingyun in a trembling voice.
He was the person in charge of the Dao Calamity Tower's voice transmission Dharma Array.
"No one survived … Does that mean my brother is dead as well?" Chu Pingyun's eyes were bloodshot. His brother was also in South Manor Garden and he was definitely in danger.
"About that … I really do not know." The subordinate's forehead was covered in sweat.
"If you do not know, then why are you still alive?" Chu Pingyun was filled with killing intent with nowhere to vent it. He suddenly took a step forward and smacked the subordinate in front of him.
"Peng!"
The subordinate let out a tragic grunt as a meandering line of blood slowly flowed down his forehead. His soul sea had been shattered by Chu Pingyun from that slap.
Prince Boundless Heaven watched this scene silently as his heart chilled slightly. He was no match for Chu Pingyun at all. Once Chu Pingyun lost his mind, it was possible that he would harm him. He was already regretting his involvement in the matter. He originally believed that he could easily kill Yi Yun and reap immense benefits. But now, from the looks of it, the situation was far from that simple!
Prince Boundless Heaven was considering if he should find an excuse to leave and not look at the heritage when —
"Boom!"
With a loud boom, the ground quaked violently. The teacups and teapots on the table fell to the ground. Even the walls began to crack.
Someone was attacking the manor!
Chu Pingyun was burning with rage. He thought that he could forget about the attack on South Manor Garden, but he never expected that they would even dare attack a gathering point with so many experts. Were they sick of living!?
"Nice one! Nice one! I'll make sure none of you return alive! "
Chu Pingyun's eyes were filled with killing intent. Just as he was about to charge out, another loud boom sounded. "Boom!
Boom! Boom! "
Violent explosions sounded one after another as the ceiling of the hall he was in was ripped off. Following that, the thick walls were blown away like paper by the strong winds. Chu Pingyun's lifeblood was in turmoil as he retreated several steps before he found his footing!
"Who is it!?"
Chu Pingyun's expression changed. The stronghold they were in was protected by a defensive array that was jointly set up by a few core Elders of the sect. Although they did not spend too much effort on it, it was unlikely for it to be torn apart in just two attacks.
This meant that the newcomer definitely had the strength to face the experts of their Dao Calamity Tower. He might even be stronger than them!
Just who were they …
Chu Pingyun looked at the person's attire. It was the Pillheart Sect!
"Pillheart Sect! Are they crazy? "
Chu Pingyun took out a spear from his interspatial ring. Even if the Pillheart Sect wanted to make an enemy of the Dao Calamity Tower because of the heritage, they should not have attacked the juniors of South Manor Manor. Furthermore, they were so ruthless. This was completely forming a blood feud that would not rest until one of them was dead.
"It's Seven Kills!"
Chu Pingyun recognized the leader, Elder Seven Kills. He was famous for his fiery temper. He had a bloodthirsty nature and was extremely protective of his people. It was said that a nephew of his had been killed by a member of a small sect while out on experiential training. The nephew's identity was unknown, and the person ended up wiping out the entire sect.
"Is the Pillheart Sect declaring war on my Dao Calamity Tower? Do you really think my Dao Calamity Tower is afraid of you? "
A deep voice sounded as the large-headed man walked out of a chamber. Behind him was a group of experts from the Dao Calamity Tower.
"Cut the f * * king act with me. Don't you know what your Dao Calamity Tower has done? I just wiped out South Manor Manor to collect some interest. Big Head Chu, I've long found you an eyesore. Today, I'll take your wretched life! "
Elder Seven Kills's maniacal voice resonated with the Yuan Qi in a fifty-kilometer radius. The Dao Calamity Tower and the Pillheart Sect were factions that spanned across several Great Worlds. The Heavenly South Great World was originally the Pillheart Sect's territory. By developing the Dao Calamity Tower there, it had already infringed on the Pillheart Sect's interests. It was only a matter of time before the two clashed.
Therefore, Elder Seven Kills was not surprised by the Dao Calamity Tower's actions, to the point of killing three Pillheart Sect experts. According to Elder Seven Kills, the Dao Calamity Tower should have wiped them out a million years ago when they first arrived in the Heavenly South Great World.
However, the large-headed man misunderstood Elder Seven Kills's words. He thought that Elder Seven Kills was accusing them of secretly contacting Yi Yun.
"All the divine items in the world belong to the capable. Who says that what belongs to Yi Yun belongs to your Pillheart Sect? Old Scum Seven Kills, everyone in the world says that you are domineering. I've finally seen it for myself today. Since you want to fight, we'll accept your challenge!"
"Hehe!" Elder Seven Kills laughed sinisterly. At that moment, a few black dots appeared on the horizon. These black dots were extremely fast and in a blink of an eye, they appeared around Elder Seven Kills.
Upon seeing the sudden appearance of these people, the large-headed man's expression changed drastically.
How did the Pillheart Sect gather so many experts in such a short period of time?
The large-headed man was even more alarmed when he saw the three masked people.
The three masks were white in color and there were distorted red runic patterns on them. Such special masks could shield them from all perception. And the masks themselves represented a famous assassin organization in the Sinkhole — God Annihilating Path!
The God Annihilating Path was extremely mysterious. No one knew where their headquarters was and they did not ally themselves with any organization. They only cared about money and not people. As long as there was sufficient remuneration, they would even dare to kill the Emperor!
"Why would they hire people from the God Annihilating Path …"
The large-headed man was somewhat taken aback. The Pillheart Sect had acted too quickly. It was as though they had long guessed that the Dao Calamity Tower would attack them. It was impossible for so many experts to gather in two hours.
"Wait! There must be some misunderstanding! "
The large-headed man suddenly felt that something was amiss. He felt like he had been tricked but he could not figure out how he had been tricked.
"Misunderstanding? Screw your misunderstanding. Are you trying to stall for time to call for reinforcements? Stop f * * king dreaming. Attack! "
At that moment, the Pillheart Sect held the upper hand. Elder Seven Kills had paid a huge price to hire the God Annihilating Path so that he could completely vanquish his opponents. Why would he waste his breath on the large-headed man? When Perfected Seven Kills took action, he was always ruthless!
…
At that moment, at the Heavenly South Peaks Meet's venue, the tournament was about to begin. The various major factions had already arrived. At that moment, Clear Lunar Island Lord discovered something amiss.
"Oh? Why aren't the people from the Pillheart Sect here? "
The Pillheart Sect obviously had to participate in the tournament. They had a total of six young disciples selected and their leader, Su Muyan, was a seeded contestant. Although it was unlikely for him to clinch the championship, it was still possible for him to enter the top twenty. As an alchemist, having such strength was already astounding.
But now, not a single Pillheart Sect disciple had arrived. Even the judges were absent. It was odd.
"Perhaps he overslept …" Yi Yun straightened his cuffs and said nonchalantly.
Clear Lunar Island Lord: "…"
"Pfft!"
Jing Yuesha burst out laughing. "Young Master Yi, what you say is really interesting. How could he oversleep for such an important matter? Speaking of which, that Chu Pingyun from before did not seem like a good person at all. Young Master Yi, you have to be careful of him."
"I didn't believe him," answered Yi Yun simply.
"It's good that you didn't." Jing Yuesha nodded. However, she was still worried for Yi Yun when she thought of how the Dao Calamity Tower was eyeing him. He might be able to handle the first round, but he might not be able to handle all of them.
"Young Master Yi, did you really give a portion of the heritage to Chu Pingyun?"
From Clear Lunar Island Lord's point of view, Chu Pingyun would have noticed a problem if the heritage in Yi Yun's interspatial ring was fake. However, Chu Pingyun looked delighted. From the looks of it, there were treasures inside.
She guessed that Yi Yun had indeed given up a portion of the heritage. Only by doing so could he appease Chu Pingyun.
"It's just some treasures," said Yi Yun indifferently. He did not know what Old Snake's treasures were.
"Young Master Yi, I know what you are planning. However, wolves ultimately need to eat meat. Giving them a few bones every time can indeed appease them, but once the bones are gone, they will still bite."
Clear Lunar Island Lord was worried for Yi Yun's situation. The Dao Calamity Tower and Pillheart Sect were two behemoths. It would be difficult for Yi Yun to escape their wrath.
As Clear Lunar Island Lord spoke, she suddenly felt the ground quake as though an earthquake was happening.
"What's happening?"
Everyone was taken aback. They felt the Heaven Earth Yuan Qi around them begin to fluctuate violently. And the source of the fluctuations came from outside Cloud Pool City. It was as though there was a violent Yuan Qi explosion.
"It's a battle between experts. People are fighting outside the city."
Clear Lunar Island Lord quickly made a judgment. Although she was a great distance away, she could still sense the strength of the combatants from the intensity of the Yuan Qi fluctuations. It was definitely a battle between experts!
"Who's fighting?"
Clear Lunar Island Lord probed with her perception but due to the great distance and the stirring Yuan Qi on the battlefield, she was unable to probe the situation with her perception.
"Look, that's the Pillheart Sect's cauldron!"
Someone exclaimed. Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a cauldron fly into the sky. The cauldron had been sitting outside Cloud Pool City all this while. Everyone could clearly see that the Pillheart Sect's experts had arrived on that cauldron!
People originally believed that the experts in the cauldron were there to kill Yi Yun but now, it appeared as though the Pillheart Sect was fighting another faction.
"One of the combatants is the Pillheart Sect!"
Clear Lunar Island Lord said. This was already an obvious matter.
It was naturally a good thing for Yi Yun that the Pillheart Sect was fighting someone. She could not help but glance at Yi Yun and when she did, she was taken aback.
