The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 901: A Storm is Brewing
Chapter 901: Chapter 901: A Storm is Brewing
The Guardian Array of the Netherworld Sect Battle Camp was broken, and the camp was now empty. It seemed that the people guarding the Netherworld Sect Battle Camp had indeed fled.
And Jing Yan had single-handedly broken through the Netherworld Sect Battle Camp. Chu Xianlie and the other Chu Family members took a deep breath, unable to suppress the shock in their hearts.
"Those who didn’t escape from the Netherworld Sect Battle Camp were all killed," Jing Yan said in a detached tone, "I gave them a chance to retreat, but they didn’t cherish it, so I had no choice but to kill them all."
Everyone was stunned upon hearing this.
They had only one thought in their minds: something big had happened.
Although they had previously killed those five Saint Realm Third Stage powerhouses, it was because those individuals had intercepted the Chu Family Warship. But now, Jing Yan had directly wiped out everyone in the Netherworld Sect Battle Camp, and the Netherworld Sect would definitely not let this go easily.
A storm was about to break.
However, Chu Xianlie and the others no longer dared to reproach Jing Yan.
"Commander Chu, you do not need to worry. I did this; if the Netherworld Sect wants to retaliate, I’ll naturally face them," Jing Yan saw the concern of Chu Xianlie and others about the Netherworld Sect’s retaliation.
"If it weren’t for you, we would have been dead long ago. No matter what, our Chu Family cannot avoid this matter." Chu Xianlie shook his head and said, "The Clan Leader and others have already rushed from the family headquarters. Once they arrive, we will discuss how to respond."
"In that case, let’s wait here in the Netherworld Sect Battle Camp for the Chu Family Patriarch and the others," Jing Yan also anticipated that the top figures of the Chu Family would come to the Quicksand Divine Domain gathering place. He was not surprised by Chu Xianlie’s words.
The Chu Family members then settled down in the Netherworld Sect Battle Camp, waiting for Chu Family Patriarch Chu Hongnan’s arrival.
A few days later, at the Netherworld Sect headquarters.
"Have you investigated clearly?" The First Sect Master of the Netherworld Sect, Dong Ze, with a gloomy face, asked.
Lu Chen, who was killed by Jing Yan, was also a Netherworld Sect Sect Master, but Lu Chen was the Second Sect Master responsible for the affairs of the Quicksand Divine Domain gathering place. And responsible for the Netherworld Sect headquarters was the First Sect Master, Dong Ze.
"The investigation is almost complete. The variable came from a person named Jing Yan. He is the son of Chu Lianxing, the daughter of Chu Hongnan. This person grew up on the Heavenly Origin Continent and is less than a hundred years old. He only recently came to the Chu Family Camp. This person is very powerful and also has six subordinates, each formidable, with at least four of them being at the Saint Realm Third Stage," the person replied.
"Heavenly Origin Continent? Jing Yan? Chu Lianxing’s son?"
"How is that possible! How can this Jing Yan have such a powerful cultivation?" Dong Ze’s eyes flashed with a cold light.
He couldn’t understand!
The news that the Netherworld Sect Battle Camp had been wiped out reached him quickly, and he immediately ordered an investigation to find out what had happened.
He was aware of Lu Chen leading the ambush on the Chu Family Warship and even approved of Lu Chen’s actions. He never thought such a flawless plan would end up like this. This time, the Netherworld Sect lost three Saint Realm Third Stage powerhouses! It could be said that more than half of the Netherworld Sect’s top combat power was lost at once.
Although Dong Ze was extremely furious, he knew that handling this matter required caution. Without understanding the opponent’s background, he couldn’t act recklessly. Currently, the Netherworld Sect had only him and another Supreme Elder at the Saint Realm Third Stage. There were still some Martial Artists at the Second Realm of Holy, but the Netherworld Sect couldn’t bear another huge loss like this.
"Has contact been made with Chu Hongnan?" Dong Ze asked again.
"Three messages have been sent to Chu Hongnan, but there has been no response. I have also heard that Chu Hongnan and the Chu Family Ancestor have gone to the Chaotic Land, Quicksand Divine Domain gathering place," the person said with his head lowered.
"Damn it! Chu Hongnan dares to ignore my Netherworld Sect!" Dong Ze’s breath surged, his fury boundless.
The Netherworld Sect had dominated the Quicksand Divine Domain for over ten thousand years; when had they ever suffered such a great loss?
Even in direct conflict with other first-grade forces in other Divine Domains, they never suffered such a huge loss.
During the Human-God War four thousand years ago, although the Netherworld Sect also suffered greatly, most forces in the Five Divine Domains suffered huge losses. Except for a few forces that did not participate in the war, the five first-grade forces of the Five Divine Domains all directly participated in the Human-God War.
"Sect Master, what should we do now?" The person in front of Dong Ze glanced at him and carefully asked.
"Hmph, this matter cannot be settled like this. Immediately send messages to various forces, asking them to send out Saint Realm Martial Artists to the Netherworld Sect," Dong Ze said with a chilling voice.
Even though Dong Ze hadn’t yet decided what exact actions to take, gathering Saint Realm powerhouses was very necessary. Whether negotiating with the Chu Family or launching a full-scale war, they needed strong Martial Artists as backing, and the more, the better.
"Yes, I will arrange it right away." The person nodded and left.
The Netherworld Sect had controlled the Quicksand Divine Domain for over ten thousand years, naturally having many subordinate forces, and the Jade Book Sect was just one of them.
After that, Dong Ze contacted the Sect Master of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect.
The Netherworld Sect had a very poor relationship with the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, and they were constantly in conflict. However, now both had lost Saint Realm Third Stage powerhouses to the Chu Family, making the Chu Family their common enemy.
"Sect Master Dong Ze, your Netherworld Sect has done a good job, causing my Ten Thousand Sword Sect to lose two Supreme Elders for nothing," Sect Master Wan Ren Mountain of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect angrily roared through their communication.
"Sect Master Wan Ren Mountain, our Netherworld Sect’s loss is even greater. Who could have imagined that the Chu Family would have such strong support?" Dong Ze was equally filled with helplessness.
"Sect Master Dong Ze, are you afraid of the Chu Family and planning to swallow your anger?" Wan Ren Mountain sneered.
"Of course not! My Netherworld Sect is not in the habit of swallowing anger. However, the Chu Family now has strong support, and to be honest, my Netherworld Sect is uncertain. Therefore, I hope Sect Master Wan Ren Mountain can assist my Netherworld Sect," Dong Ze said directly.
"Assist? How to assist? Do you mean you want the Ten Thousand Sword Sect to send a large number of Saint Realm Martial Artists to attack the Chu Family?" Wan Ren Mountain sneered.
Dong Ze wanted to borrow the power of the Ten Thousand Sword Sect, but Wan Ren Mountain was not easy to agree. Although the Ten Thousand Sword Sect had suffered greatly this time, the Chu Family was a force within the Quicksand Divine Domain, posing the greatest threat to the Netherworld Sect. Letting the Netherworld Sect worry was more appropriate.
"I only hope that Sect Master Wan Ren Mountain can send some strong Ten Thousand Sword Sect Masters to assist me. Naturally, my Netherworld Sect will take the lead against the Chu Family. And after the matter is settled, the new ore vein with Divine Crystal will all belong to the Ten Thousand Sword Sect. My Netherworld Sect will not touch a single piece," Dong Ze was desperate to deal with the Chu Family.
