Chu Heng was now faced with a very awkward and dangerous situation. If he could not get rid of the guy who came to ask for the array in time, he would have to face the punishment of murdering his fellow sect members once the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall found him first. Even if he was an inner sect disciple who had built his foundation and Yang Chen was just an outer sect disciple, the sect rules were the rules and would not change because of their cultivation.
Moreover, Du Qian had always admired Yang Chen. Even the guys from the Law Enforcement Hall had a strong sense of approval for Yang Chen, who was an executioner. Once they found out that he was the mastermind, he was afraid that he could only admit his guilt and escape from the sect.
What angered Chu Heng the most was that a small outer sect disciple, and a first level Qi Refining one at that. If it were in other sects, even the others in the sect would not be qualified to go out. Not to mention fighting with people, in this realm, at most he could only learn to draw some talisman paper. Even the lowest level of spells needed to be at the second level of the Qi Refining Stage to learn. How did Yang Chen defeat several senior killers?
Could it be that a disciple in the Foundation Establishment stage was involved? Du Qian and Yang Chen had always had a good relationship. Could it be that Du Qian had appeared? It was not that Chu Heng did not suspect this, but if Du Qian had appeared, it would not have been Yang Chen who carried his head to Qianqiu Pavilion. It should have been the disciples of the Law Enforcement Hall who came to find him.
However, to make Chu Heng believe that Yang Chen did it alone, he would never believe it. Just by relying on Yang Chen? A guy who only cultivated for two hours a day, at most two Qi cycles, and spent his free time in the Sutra Depository reading jade slips. He was a guy who did not do proper work. If it was about alchemy, Chu Heng might believe it. But if it was about fighting, Chu Heng would not believe it!
One person could defeat ten people? It was possible to defeat a third level Qi Refining disciple like Sun Haijing, but to defeat an opponent who was six or seven levels lower than him by relying on strength, especially when surrounded by them, Chu Heng would not believe it even if he was beaten to death. The only explanation was that Yang Chen had someone helping him, and this was the reason why Chu Heng was fearless. According to this logic, Yang Chen's motive for joining Chunyang Palace was not pure!
Unfortunately, he couldn't kill Yang Chen, nor did he get any evidence of his impure motives. Chu Heng could only kill the killer from Midsummer first. Otherwise, before he could catch Yang Chen's weakness, he would be in trouble.
The news naturally spread back to the Nine Earth Mountain Villa, causing the outer sect disciples of the villa to all become confident. The disciples of Chunyang Palace who were in the first level of the Qi Refining realm could actually kill a few individual cultivators who were in the seventh or eighth level of the Qi Refining realm. If this was not the superiority of the sect, then what was it? Everyone seemed to be more excited than usual.
Shen Da and the other three were even more abnormally excited. The greater Yang Chen's reputation was, the higher their status would be in the future. As long as they were loyal, Yang Chen would definitely support them. Compared to the confidence of the other disciples, Chen Da and the other three had a deep understanding of their own strength. Yang Chen killing a seventh or eighth level Qi Refining assassin was because of Yang Chen's cultivation. It had nothing to do with them.
The only one who was terrified was probably Sun Haijing. Right now, he practically couldn't eat and couldn't sleep at night. He lived in great fear all day. If he could choose again, he definitely wouldn't have said those sarcastic words before Yang Chen left.
Other people might think it was an exaggeration, but Sun Haijing was very clear that those guys really did have a cultivation of the seventh or eighth level. Moreover, Yang Chen definitely didn't have anyone to help him. After Martial Uncle Du Qian left the Nine Earth Mountain Villa, he returned to Chunyang Palace and never left. Chu Heng had been keeping an eye on this, so there shouldn't be any mistakes. Yang Chen really did kill those four assassins by himself.
Three of them were at the seventh level and one was at the eighth level. Even if Sun Haijing himself had worked extremely hard during this period of time, his cultivation was only at the fourth level. Even if he counted the talisman weapons and talisman treasures that Chu Heng rewarded him, Sun Haijing might still have the confidence to fight against a fifth level Qi Refining. If it was a sixth level Qi Refining, he might have a ten to twenty percent chance. He didn't even dare to think about the seventh level Qi Refining.
But Yang Chen actually killed three of them at the seventh level and one at the eighth level. Based on Sun Haijing's understanding of those guys, it was very likely that they attacked together. Even so, they were still killed by Yang Chen. Then, on the day of the sect competition, even if Yang Chen didn't buy any talisman weapons or talisman treasures, it would still be enough to kill him.
Right now, he was practically counting the number of days he had left with his fingers. Waiting for death. For Sun Haijing, who had just joined Chunyang Palace a few years ago and thought that his future would be limitless because he had the thick thighs of Chu Heng's disciple, it was worse than death.
Every time he thought about how he was possessed and how he made things difficult for Yang Chen when he entered the sect, Sun Haijing's whole body trembled silently, as if he also regretted the choice he had made at that time.
Yang Chen was no longer worried about whether those guys had accomplices or not. He believed that Chu Heng would look forward to those people's deaths more than Yang Chen. Anyway, he had already reported the matter to the Law Enforcement Hall of Chunyang Palace. If those guys' accomplices still dared to appear instead of running for their lives, he would really be convinced by these people.
Now, Yang Chen could finally leisurely ride the paper crane made by the black-clothed man and fly peacefully. He believed that after the news spread, no one would dare to chase after him again.
Yang Chen just threw a few heads at Qianqiu Pavilion, but it caused a big earthquake within the scope of Chunyang Palace's power. Almost all the individual cultivators were interrogated one by one, and at the same time, the lives of those killers were completely dug out.
Because these people were dead, many people had no scruples about speaking, and immediately countless evil deeds of these people, who bullied people and took advantage of women, were revealed. But what everyone was most interested in was the way these people died.
"An outer mountain disciple of Chunyang Palace, who was at the first level of Qi Refining, killed four of them? Three at the seventh level of Qi Refining, and one at the eighth level of Qi Refining? How is this possible? "After countless people heard the news, they all had the same thought.
No one would believe that a person at the first level of Qi Refining could kill four masters at the seventh or eighth level of Qi Refining. Perhaps there were many geniuses who could kill opponents at a higher level when they were at a lower level, but that was only limited to one or two levels higher. For example, it was completely possible for a person at the first level of Qi Refining to kill a person at the second level of Qi Refining. However, it was simply absurd to want to kill several opponents with a difference of six or seven levels.
Chunyang Palace must be crazy to promote this disciple. The news slowly spread and reached the ears of people from other sects. The first reaction of those people was that Chunyang Palace wanted to cultivate this disciple. When they heard that Yang Chen turned out to be an executioner in the past, many people curled their lips to express their disdain. Even if they were all cultivators and shouldn't have these distracting thoughts, they couldn't care so much. At that time, they must teach this arrogant boy a lesson. They must teach Chunyang Palace a lesson!
