After Li Tianyan avoided the restriction and went through Chi Zhuo’s memory, it turned out that things were not far from what he had guessed. It turned out Chi Zhuo was a spy cultivated by a demonic force called Shura Sect. Because of his good talent, he was sent to Tianfan Immortal Sect of the Southern Region as a spy since he was a child. So, Chi Zhuo was a cultivator of Tianfan Immortal Sect on the surface, but secretly his behavior was no different from that of the evil cultivator.
There were countless fellow disciples who had been harmed by him over the years. Later, when he became an elder, Chi Zhuo even targeted his own disciples. The disciples who were accepted into Qingyun Palace by Chi Zhuo could be divided into two types. One type was those with bad character and bad mind who had the potential to become evil cultivators. These people were eventually assimilated by him.
The other type were cultivators with special talents, or with furnace physiques like Cheng Qi. These people either went out to practice and were killed or their practice went wrong and found dead. In fact, they all died at the hands of Chi Zhuo. Even Chi Zhuo’s spiritual eyes were dug out from one of his disciples.
It was precisely because of this pair of spiritual eyes, when Chi Zhuo went down the mountain and passed by Chijin City. He met a lady who was pregnant with twins, and he could tell at a glance that there were two fetuses in her belly, one of which had an excellent furnace constitution. How could Chi Zhuo let go of this opportunity? He immediately approached this family and stated he wanted to take in two unborn children as his disciples.
When the baby was still in the womb, an elder of the sect took notice. Of course, the family happily agreed. However, for some unknown reason, the couple seemed to know something and sent one of the babies away on the day of delivery.
When Chi Zhuo heard the babies were born and came to check, the couple claimed one of the babies was held in the stomach for a long time and was born dead.
Of course, Chi Zhuo didn’t believe this argument, but Chijin City was right at the feet of Tianfan Immortal Sect. He couldn’t make it too obvious, so he kept a secret surveillance to see if they were hiding the baby.
Although the remaining baby did not have the physique of a furnace, he had good qualifications. Chi Zhuo wanted to take him back to the sect, but the couple kept delaying it for several years on the grounds that the child was too young. It wasn’t until the shuanger was seven years old and his appearance took shape. Chi Zhuo couldn’t help but press harder. As a result, the family suddenly hooked up with another Immortal Sect in the Central Region and fled from the Southern Territory.
Of course, all this was just the secret turmoil between Chi Zhuo and the couple. From the perspective of outsiders, the whole thing was about the Cheng family breaking their promise and agreement with Chi Zhuo after they clung to another Immortal Sect in the Central Region. However, the Haoyue Immortal Sect in the Central Region was the number one existence in the mainland, and others would not doubt the reason why the Cheng family defected to the Central Region.
After listening to Li Tianyan’s story, Cheng Qi felt a little more relieved. When he looked at Chi Zhuo again, he was even more disgusted. After raising his head and asking Li Tianyan, Cheng Qi released a ray of flame and burned Chi Zhuo’s soul to death.
Li Tianyan collected the lifeless body on the ground, but his face did not show any relief. The Shura Sect had sent more than just Chi Zhuo, and they were not just lurking in the Southern Region. They were present in almost every region and every force. They seemed to want to use this five-region competition to provoke internal strife among the immortal cultivators.
“Young master, what should we do next? Do we want to tell the elders about this?” Cheng Qi was also a little worried after hearing about the Shura Sect’s conspiracy.
This matter concerned the entire mainland cultivation world. No matter how powerful Li Tianyan was, he was only a foundation-establishment cultivator. This matter couldn’t be solved by him alone. He still had to leave it to several major sects to handle it.
“Yes.” Li Tianyan naturally would not overestimate his ability and take on such a big task, but he couldn’t say how seriously the Tianfan Immortal Sect would take this matter. Li Tianyan could trust Tian Min’s character, but although Tian Min was a Xuan-level alchemy master, his cultivation level was somewhat inferior, and the weight of his words was naturally not as high as a Supreme Elder, so it still depended on the attitudes of the sect master and the other Core Formation elders.
.
After solving the matter at hand, one night passed.
At this time, the sun rose and a ray of sunlight enveloped the entire forest. Tan Eyu’s python robe and brocade clothes gradually faded away, and she returned to the red wedding dress. Even the aura on her body disappeared, falling from the foundation establishment to the peak of the ninth level.
Cheng Qi noticed something was wrong and turned around, and saw the familiar Tan Eyu standing next to him. He couldn’t help but blinked and asked her, “Why did you change back?”
“The time is out.” Tan Eyu said with a yawn.
Seeing Tan Eyu was still looking carefree, Cheng Qi felt relieved. It was true Tan Eyu just now was too powerful and he was a little nervous standing next to her, so he felt more comfortable getting along with the person in front of him.
Cheng Qi couldn’t help but be curious, “Tan Eyu, why did you suddenly turn into another ghost?”
“How do I know? It must have something to do with the three drops of blood you gave me.” Tan Eyu shrugged, unable to recall how she changed just now.
Cheng Qi turned to look at Li Tianyan again, “Does the young master know?”
Li Tianyan already had the answer in his heart, “Tan Eyu has the blood of the Tianlong royal family, but after experiencing countless reincarnations, this blood has faded. Your heart’s blood can inspire Tan Eyu’s bloodline awakening, but this still needs another research.”
After saying that, seeing that Cheng Qi and Tan Eyu seemed a little excited, Li Tianyan reminded them, “The heart blood is a precious thing for cultivator, and should not be used indiscriminately until it is critical.”
