Tyrant Sky Martial Soul-Chapter 2213 - 2216: The Sha Clan of the Eight Great Ancient Clans

Mo Fei Yu stood there, speechless for a long time.

What he was contemplating now was not how to kill Ling Xiao to avenge his family, but how to clear his ties with the family.

The Eight Immortals Mountain could tolerate his mistakes, but absolutely could not tolerate his betrayal, not even if he was a genius.

"What's the other piece of evidence you mentioned?"

The Hei Xianshan Mountain Master asked.

"It's the body of Shen Chong. During the cultivation process, the Martial Artists of the Demon Shadow Sect develop Devil Seeds.

Although Shen Chong hasn't been in the Demon Shadow Sect for long, he should have Devil Seeds, albeit maybe not many. You can investigate and see for yourself."

Ling Xiao took Shen Chong's body out of the Beast Ring and handed it to the Hei Xianshan Mountain Master.

"Alright, Ling Xiao, you can rest assured. The Sect won't let a rebel go unpunished nor will it wrong a good person. Mo Fei Yu, don't you owe the Sect an explanation?"

Lin Ruoxian said some comforting words to Ling Xiao, then turned to Mo Fei Yu.

"Hmph, I will explain myself clearly."

Mo Fei Yu snorted coldly, glanced at Ling Xiao, and then left swiftly.

Clearly, he could not easily let Ling Xiao go, but before dealing with Ling Xiao, he needed to solve his own troubles first.

Lin Ruoxian also prepared to leave with Ling Xiao's evidence.

However, Ling Xiao stopped her: "Steward, there's also a letter I found on Mo Lao Er. I'm not sure if it's genuine, but I hope the Sect takes it seriously."

Regarding the Bloodsucking Sacrifice, Ling Xiao feared that he was too weak to handle it alone and needed the intervention of the senior members of the Eight Immortals Mountain.

As long as the seniors of the Eight Immortals Mountain were willing to act, it would at least prevent the Demon Shadow Sect from infiltrating the Eight Immortals County City too quickly.

It would surely be of some help.

"This news is really important, Ling Xiao, well done. Keep up the good work."

Lin Ruoxian smiled and also left.

"Feng Ru, take good care of Ling Xiao. I also need to report this matter to the higher-ups, so I'll take my leave first."

The Hei Xianshan Mountain Master instructed Feng Ru before leaving.

This Mountain Master was usually elusive, and who knew when they would meet again.

Not long after the three left, Ling Xiao's identity token lit up, and information automatically flowed into his mind.

This information told him that he had passed the Beginner Stage assessment task and received a reward of one hundred Contribution Points from the Sect.

"One hundred Contribution Points! That's a lot! Normally, even completing the Beginner Stage assessment task would set a record at fifty points, yet you received a hundred!"

Feng Ru, standing beside him, exclaimed when she saw the Contribution Points displayed on the identity token.

Ling Xiao was quite surprised too, but upon thinking it over, he felt it was only fair. After all, he discovered the Demon Shadow Sect's conspiracy and destroyed their stronghold in North Mount Town, so receiving these Contribution Points was justified.

After pondering for a moment, it all seemed reasonable.

"By the way, Senior Sister Feng, what about Chen He? Didn't he also go on a mission? Hasn't he returned yet?"

Now that his matters were settled, Ling Xiao began to worry about his younger brother, Chen He.

Unexpectedly, mentioning Chen He caused Feng Ru's expression to suddenly turn grim.

"Did something happen to Chen He?"

Ling Xiao frowned and asked.

"Yeah."

Feng Ru nodded.

"What exactly happened? Given Chen He's cultivation level, he shouldn't encounter any problems during a task, right?"

Ling Xiao speculated that there was definitely something amiss.

"It's better if you don't know. You've already offended Mo Fei Yu; you mustn't make more enemies."

Feng Ru opened her mouth but ultimately didn't say more.

"If you won't tell me, I'll investigate myself. Either way, I'll find out. Chen He may not have known me for long, but since he called me boss, I can't let him die unclear of why."

Ling Xiao said coldly.

"He might not necessarily be dead."

Feng Ru shook her head: "Forget it, to prevent you from causing more trouble, I'll tell you. Apart from Zhou Tong from our Hei Xianshan, Chen He was also accompanied by Sha Hai from the Red Immortal Mountain.

Senior Brother Zhou Tong said that during the mission, Sha Hai and Chen He had a disagreement, which escalated into a fight, and Chen He was knocked off a cliff by Sha Hai.

Whether he survived or not is unknown.

But Senior Brother Zhou Tong did not find Chen He's body, so he returned to report."

"Sha Hai from the Red Immortal Mountain? Who exactly is this Sha Hai? Is he stronger than Chen He?"

Ling Xiao frowned and asked.

"Previously, I only told you about the Lower Eight Immortals Mountain, not the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain.

The Three Great Families of Eight Immortals County City control the Lower Eight Immortals Mountain, where the highest cultivation level of the disciples reaches only the Yin-Yang Realm, Third Layer Hell Peak.

But the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain is much more formidable, consisting of eight peaks, each representing one of the Eight Great Ancient Clans.

They all possess powerful Martial Souls inherited from their families and are the true puppet masters behind the scenes in the Eight Immortals County City. Even the Chen Dynasty Court has no control over them.

This Sha Hai has some connection with the Sha Family of the Upper Baxian Mountain, carrying their noble bloodline and possessing their Martial Soul.

That's why he can be assigned to cultivate in the Red Immortal Mountain, the strongest of Lower Baxian Mountain.

Furthermore, this Sha Hai, like you, is a Reincarnation Warrior."

"I see. I don't care if he's Sha Hai or a sand dog, but since he harmed my younger brother, I'll make him pay in blood."

Ling Xiao revealed a grim smile.

"I advise you not to think that way."

Feng Ru shook her head: "Sha Hai is different from Mo Fei Yu. Although Mo Fei Yu is a disciple of the Upper Eight Immortals Mountain, in the end, he's just an outsider.

Sha Hai may be a Lower Baxian disciple, but he's a noble of the Eight Immortals Mountain.

To put it bluntly, we, the outsiders, are essentially serving the Eight Great Ancient Clans as their servants, hirelings, and enforcers.

Have you ever seen a servant who beat their master and got away with it?

So, Sha Hai killing Chen He won't be problematic because he's the master.

But if you harm Sha Hai, it would be considered an act of treason."

"What nonsense! Just because they're the puppet masters of the Eight Immortals Mountain, they think they're something special. I've seen much older families than them who aren't nearly as arrogant."

Ling Xiao said disdainfully.

"Hmph, you really are arrogant, not knowing how high heaven is or how deep the earth is."

Suddenly, a cold voice came through.

This voice surprisingly came from Feng Yu.

The last time, he had drugged this guy's wine, and the drug hadn't taken effect?

No, several days had passed; it was impossible for it not to have taken effect. It seemed someone had neutralized it.

But even if it was neutralized, it didn't matter. He didn't fear Feng Yu at all; now with his cultivation level, he could easily kill Feng Yu.

"Are you surprised that I'm still alive and kicking and wasn't killed by your poison?"

Feng Yu sneered at Ling Xiao: "Don't be afraid to know that Lord Sha Hai has already detoxified me."
