The Return
Ever since Chu Xingyun disappeared, Fan Wujie ordered all Sword Masters to enter the Tianyang Mountain Range to search for Chu Xingyun's whereabouts. No one was an exception.
In order to avoid attracting attention, Chang Chixiao did not go to the outskirts. He left the meeting to Chang Mingyang.
The night faded, and the sun peeked out from the clouds.
Chang Chixiao had just returned to Tianyang City when he rushed to the outskirts in a hurry.
Just thinking that he would be able to see Chu Xingyun's head soon filled his face with excitement. The excitement in his heart was a thousand times stronger than when he advanced to the Yin Yang Realm.
However, the moment he arrived at the loft, Chang Chixiao's expression froze.
As far as the eye could see, the luxurious pavilion had already become a mess. On the ground, there were three cold corpses lying quietly. One of the corpses had no arms, and its eyes were still wide open. It was terrifying and horrifying, and even Chang Chixiao was shocked.
"Who killed my son!"
A furious roar came out of Chang Chixiao's mouth and resounded through the air. It even caused the Spiritual Energy to become restless. Everyone was so shocked that their hearts trembled.
Then, the news that Chang Mingyang and the others were killed spread throughout Tianyang City.
The Beast Tide had just retreated, and Tianyang City was still filled with blood. This news caused Tianyang City to have a terrifying atmosphere.
Chang Mingyang, Qi Yuzhen and Teng Qing, the three of them were not weak at all. However, in a single night, the three of them had all died. They had died without a sound, without anyone noticing.
Everyone was afraid that in the next moment, the murderous hands hidden in the darkness would fall on their heads.
Soon, the news spread to Wanjian Pavilion.
As the pavilion master, Fan Wujie paid great attention to this matter.
When the Beast Tide broke out, two people at the sixth level of the Sky Spirit Realm appeared and surrounded Chu Xingyun. After the Beast Tide broke out, the mysterious expert took advantage of the night to kill Chang Mingyang and the others.
Furthermore, Chang Mingyang and the other two's storage rings had all been taken away.
It should be known that when Chu Xingyun had cut off Chang Mingyang's right arm, he had been disheartened. However, because of hatred, Chang Mingyang had overcome this hurdle. Not only had he broken through, but he had also developed a left-handed sword technique, greatly increasing his strength.
Fan Wujie admired Chang Mingyang, so he personally spent a large amount of precious stones to forge the Sky Slashing Sword into a six-vein King Artifact to motivate Chang Mingyang.
But in the end, Chang Mingyang died and the sword was taken away. The 10,000 Swords Pavilion suffered heavy losses. How could Brahma Wu Jie remain indifferent?
This time, the person in charge of this matter?
In just a few days, almost all of the Sword Masters of the 10,000 Swords Pavilion had gathered in the small Tianyang City. Everyone could feel that an invisible storm was descending, and it could cause a huge commotion at any time.
However, a day before Fan Wuchen's arrival, another major event happened in Tiens and Earth.
Liu Xing had disappeared!
His whereabouts were unknown!
Liu Xing was not a member of the Wanjian Pavilion. He was just an independent cultivator. Not many people cared whether he had left or not. However, the timing of his departure was too special.
When he had just disappeared, Qi Yangchen, who was grieving over the loss of his son, immediately regarded Liu Xing as the murderer. He felt that Liu Xing must have left because he had a guilty conscience and wanted to escape punishment.
Qi Yangchen even pointed the spearhead at Ning Lefan, Lu Qingyao and the others, slandering them as accomplices.
Instantly, countless doubts, roars, and even slander appeared in the already unstable Tiens and Earth. No one could be at peace.
Even Fan Wuchen's arrival could not suppress these public opinions. He could only send more people to seal off the entire Tiens and Earth mountain range, hoping to find Liu Xing and uncover the truth.
Under such a tense situation, time passed very slowly.
Three days later, in Tiens and Earth.
Ning Lefan, Lu Qingyao, and the others were standing in a large hall. There was a struggle on their faces as they looked at each other with embarrassed expressions.
In front of them were the four sword masters of the Technique Imparting Lineage.
Yun Changqing sighed and said slowly, "I can see your concern for Luo Yun, but there's not much point in you staying in Tiens and Earth. Leave the search for Luo Yun to the Law Enforcement Lineage."
"What's the point of returning to Wanjian Pavilion if we can't find Master?" Ning Lefan was impatient and immediately responded with an incomparably firm tone.
"Luo Yun is the master of the outer sect, and you are his personal disciples. After he disappeared, the heavy responsibility of managing the outer sect fell to you."
Tang Yunhuan's expression was solemn as he said in a low voice, "If you stay in Tiens and Earth for a long time, the outer sect will definitely be in chaos. Luo Yun's previous efforts will be completely wasted. If he returns safely in the future, he definitely won't want to see the outer sect in a mess.
"It's fine if the outer sect becomes a mess, but if the Internal Affairs Lineage grasps this opportunity to place their trusted aides, the outer sect will definitely fall back into their hands." Su Lengliu also spoke. His voice was very cold, and his words were even colder, causing everyone present to shiver.
Before Luo Yun reorganized the outer sect, the Internal Affairs Lineage had placed countless trusted aides and firmly controlled the lifeline of the outer sect.
If the outer sect fell into chaos, the Internal Affairs Lineage would definitely not let go of this great opportunity. They would definitely regain control of the outer sect and continue to seek personal benefits.
"Su Lengliu, what you said is really interesting!"
At this moment, a cold snort sounded from nearby and was clearly heard by everyone.
A group of figures appeared at the source of the sound and quickly rushed over.
The person who spoke was Chang Chixiao.
He landed in front of the crowd and swept his gaze over them. He said coldly, "The outer sect was originally controlled by the Internal Affairs Lineage. Now that Luo Yun is dead, it will naturally return to the Internal Affairs Lineage. This is an indisputable fact."
"Shut up!"
Lu Qingyao suddenly shouted coldly. She pointed at Chang Chixiao's nose and scolded, "As long as Master's life and death is not confirmed, the outer sect will definitely not fall into your hands. If you dare to take it by force, don't blame my sword for being merciless!"
"That's right. How can Master's things be touched by others!" Ning Lefan added. He was not afraid of Chang Chixiao's tyrannical power and stepped forward.
Then, Lu Ling and Gu Xuanqing also stepped forward.
The five of them stood side by side, facing Chang Chixiao and the others. The Sword Essence emitted from their bodies was actually faintly condensing.
"Whether the outer sect belongs to the Internal Affairs Lineage or not is not up to you to decide." Facing the anger of the five people, Chang Chixiao did not get angry. Instead, he revealed a faint smile.
From the moment he set up the trap, in his heart, these people in front of him had already been sentenced to death.
When he returned to the Wanjian Pavilion, he would set up a new trap and kill all these people. He would completely eradicate Chu Xingyun's remaining forces. Only in this way would the outer sect be completely under his control.
His gaze slowly swept over. When he saw Lu Qingxuan, Chang Chixiao's gaze froze. He snorted coldly, "Traitor!"
Hearing this, Lu Qingxuan's face turned pale. She lowered her head, not daring to look directly at Chang Chixiao.
"Chang Chixiao, Lu Qingxuan's decision is only to have a clear conscience. She has never caused any losses to the Internal Affairs Lineage. She is your disciple after all. Why do you have to say such things?" Lei Yuanguang could not stand it and coldly stared at Chang Chixiao.
"She disobeyed my orders. She is no longer my disciple. What's more, what I just said is the truth. Since it is the truth, why can't I say it clearly?"
Chang Chixiao's body emitted a trace of hostility. His gaze fell on Lu Qingxuan and the others again. He said darkly, "You people usually take advantage of Luo Yun's protection and act without restraint. You have repeatedly contradicted me. After Luo Yun's death, I did not expect you to still be so arrogant. It seems that I need to teach you a lesson so that you will not embarrass the Wanjian Pavilion in the future."
With that, he took a step forward.
With a rumbling sound, the blazing and violent sword radiance instantly filled the void. It turned into a continuous cloud of fire and pressed down on Ning Lefan, Lu Qingxuan and the others.
"Chang Chixiao, how dare you!" Seeing this, Yun Changqing immediately shouted.
But Chang Chixiao did not care at all. The blazing sword radiance shone brightly and locked onto Ning Lefan, Lu Qingxuan and the others. He wanted to punish this group of people and vent his anger.
Boom! Boom!
Boom! The sword radiance was getting closer and closer. Just as it was about to press down, without any warning, a threatening voice resounded through the void. "Chang Chixiao, it is not up to you to discipline my disciple!"
