Chapter 593: Chapter 536: Thinking About Heading Out to Sea

Although Xin Zui didn’t ask, judging from the Five Envoys’ swift actions, he felt his guess was almost spot on.

He was among the earlier groups who came to the Endless Sea Domain. Unlike Fen Hun and others, he knew a little about the Holy Sect’s arrangements.

Even if it’s not much, one must know that even this little is enough to keep him from having second thoughts about the Holy Sect.

The more one understands the Holy Sect, the more they realize its terrifying nature.

Not like some traitors, who backstab not only themselves but others as well.

That’s right, he’s talking about Fen Hun. 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

Xin Zui considers himself not a magnanimous person. Since Fen Hun backstabbed them, he shouldn’t blame him for what happens next.

At that moment, he loudly said, "Esteemed Five Envoys, Fen Hun has betrayed the Holy Sect."

This is not him throwing dirt; Fen Hun has twelve avatars, all interconnected sharing everything. The so-called Chasing Soul betrayal doesn’t hold water at all.

Initially, Xin Zui and the others could turn a blind eye, but Fen Hun’s mistake was backstabbing them. Looking at the attitude of the Five Envoys, Fen Hun didn’t say anything good at the time.

Moreover, more importantly, with Chasing Soul’s betrayal, it’s like Fen Hun turned into a mole, allowing him to be aware of all the Holy Sect’s arrangements.

"You did say that Chasing Soul had some connection with the Celestial Dao Sect, so wouldn’t everything here be known to them as well?"

Xin Zui’s words struck Fen Hun’s heart, leaving him chilled all over for a moment.

If what Xin Zui said is true, wouldn’t he have to take the fall this time too?

Goodness gracious, he indeed didn’t say anything good, but he didn’t spread rumors either!

Isn’t this aiming to destroy him?

Fen Hun never thought the boomerang of backstabbing would come hitting him back so quickly.

Now, not only Xin Zui and the other three want to take him down, but also Gu Feng and the doctor are kicking him while he’s down, after all, wasn’t it because of Fen Hun that all this mess started?

"Alright, that’s enough."

Seeing the commotion, Lei Wang furrowed his brows suddenly, waving his hand to stop it.

"I’m not afraid of Celestial Dao Sect knowing I’m here. In fact, I’m afraid they don’t know."

Chasing Soul felt a burst of joy hearing this, thinking he might be off the hook.

However, Lei Wang’s next words immediately made him uncomfortable.

"You will handle the matter of Chasing Soul yourself; either he dies, or your six avatars die."

"From now on, you don’t need to follow us. After I deal with the Celestial Dao Sect, you must give me a result."

In the end, it’s still up to Fen Hun to handle his own mess.

Moreover, Lei Wang’s demands were harsher than Xin Zui’s; Xin Zui at least didn’t give a deadline, but Lei Wang not only imposed one but also gave only two choices.

Xin Zui and the others coldly watched the six stunned avatars, unable to muster any sympathy.

You traitor, see where backstabbing got you.

...

By the time Liu Zongyuan hurriedly returned, he found the group from the Celestial Dao Sect on the deserted island.

At the moment, Wang Xingzhi and others were surrounding a captured Heart Demon, as Heart Demons usually existed only as a concept or deep within a cultivator’s heart.

Seeing it in physical form was quite an eye-opener.

However, dealing with it was tricky; killing it was out of the question as that would be a bargain for the opposing side, and hiding it wasn’t really feasible.

"Something’s happened."

Liu Zongyuan landed with a troubled expression, speaking in a cold voice.

What else could happen?

Wang Xingzhi was baffled; weren’t those from Yama Hall preoccupied with their turmoil? Did they somehow manage to seek vengeance against them?

"Chasing Soul said Yama Hall sent five formidable figures more troublesome than Xin Zui and his group."

At this point, Liu Zongyuan relayed Chasing Soul’s words, making the group tense.

Above Entering the Dao!

This was not something they could withstand.

Especially when it was targeted at them.

"Should we dig out that useless avatar and ask?"

A Daoist pointed to a filled dirt pit on the ground.

"No!"

Liu Zongyuan was startled; that avatar had its senses sealed and was buried, which was for the best. Digging it out might expose their location.

Wang Xingzhi wore a grim expression, troubled by how formidable these experts were, given the short time span.

Yama Hall seemed poised to make a major move.

These are unusual times, and surely something major was about to happen. Wang Xingzhi thought long and hard, deciding to return once more to the small world.

"What about the Heart Demon?"

A Daoist pointed to the dark mass, which couldn’t certainly be taken along.

"Restrict it with spells, then bury it in a pit."

Wang Xingzhi glanced at a certain dirt pit, deciding to employ the same tactic.

The group moved swiftly and, after burying the Heart Demon, departed in a hurry.

Upon returning to the small world, Wang Xingzhi took Liu Zongyuan with him directly to the grand hall.

While Wang Xingzhi ascended the divine platform to burn incense and meditate, a displeased voice abruptly echoed.

"You’re back again?"

The voice was extremely dissatisfied, and a sense of pressure unconsciously discharged within the hall.

Liu Zongyuan immediately knelt as the pressure was overwhelming, making it impossible for him to stand upright.

He was relatively better off; didn’t he see Wang Xingzhi being forced into a split on the divine platform?

Could it be that after so many days, the lord’s stomach still hadn’t recovered?

Wang Xingzhi only dared to think this in his mind when an inexplicable force directly tossed him out.

"State your business!"

The voice spoke without enthusiasm.

"There’s a major commotion on Yama Hall’s side..."

Wang Xingzhi wanted to get up and respond, but the pressure pinned him down, forcing him to speak from the ground.

"The Five Envoys of Biluo?"

The voice hesitated for a moment, and the pressure on Liu Zongyuan lifted, allowing him to stand as it began questioning.

"Where did you get this information?"

Liu Zongyuan, not daring to conceal anything, recounted the matter of Chasing Soul in full.

"Lei Wang, Zui Rong, Shang Di, Qiao Po, Bian Zhuang?"

The voice seemed surprised.

Equally astonished were Liu Zongyuan and Wang Xingzhi.

Did it mean the Sovereign Envoy knew them?

"Didn’t expect these five to still be alive!"

The voice seemed to mutter to itself, and after a brief wait, spoke in a slightly heavier tone.

"You guys are likely in big trouble. Give me some time; wait outside first."

With that said, two forces lifted Liu Zongyuan and Wang Xingzhi to the foot of the mountain.

Meanwhile, inside the now silent grand hall, a hurried voice could be heard as if speaking to someone else.

"Quick, send over a few able bodies; my subordinates are about to be wiped out..."

...

The Artifact Spirit sat on Han Yu’s shoulder, sighing with him as they faced the seaside.

Quan Xiaotong had run out of resources, and they couldn’t count on him for the time being.

By the time he collected more, those from Yama Hall might have already come for him.

So Han Yu’s wish to temporarily boost his strength was completely dashed.

"Should I go to the Endless Sea Domain?"

Han Yu spoke full of uncertainty.

The Artifact Spirit rolled its eyes at him, meaning to say he’d be sending himself to his death in the Endless Sea Domain!

"The main thing is, the Central Continent has already been almost fully exploited."

Didn’t you see that even someone named Quan couldn’t gather more Qi Fortune Cultivators?

Plus, the sudden appearances of Pills make it so there’s no one in Central Continent to consume them, and the Pills from Ping sometimes have a frighteningly high upper limit.

Furthermore, rather than waiting for Yama Hall to come for him, he might as well first enter the Endless Sea Domain to fish in troubled waters.

"I’m not necessarily aiming for a direct confrontation with Yama Hall. Think about it, even the strangest Pills, as long as they boost strength, once I present them to the folks of Celestial Dao Sect, do you think they won’t take them?"

Pills don’t have to be used to weaken enemies. Enhancing allies is equally exciting, isn’t it?

The only caveat is that Han Yu mustn’t make a mistake, otherwise he’d end up undoing himself.
