Chapter 3739 Cleaning Up the House

Shen Xiao personally intervened.

The news of Du Changshou's death was naturally suppressed.

The events that occurred in Crimson Abyss Valley had already spread far and wide.

Many forces are secretly watching Tongtian Pavilion, wanting to see how it will react.

The death of a manager is no small matter.

Moreover, Tongtian Pavilion has a strong foundation and cannot tolerate such a thing happening.

To the disappointment of many factions, Tongtian Pavilion took no action.

The death of Du Changshou.

It didn't even cause the slightest ripple.

This eerie calm left many factions puzzled.

Some cultivators came to the gate, hoping to find out more information indirectly, but Tongtian Pavilion kept it a secret and showed no intention of revealing any information.

In this regard.

Other factions also abandoned the idea of ​​continuing their investigation.

However, there is one point.

These forces understand this.

The powerful figure who killed Du Changshou must have been someone of extraordinary origin.

otherwise.

How could Tongtian Pavilion be completely silent?

It is important to understand that the loss of a manager is not just a matter of losing a Celestial Emperor; it also concerns the reputation of the entire Tongtian Pavilion.

Even so, Tongtian Pavilion still did not take any action.

That's only one possibility.

The powerful figure who killed Du Changshou was someone that Tongtian Pavilion could not afford to offend.

Or.

Those who are not from the Divine Sun Domain branch should not offend them.

Otherwise, why wouldn't Shen Xiao have made any move?

Many factions are well aware of the style of the head steward of Tongtian Pavilion.

Since it concerns the reputation of the entire organization, the other party will definitely not let it go.

……

Yuhuanzhou.

Purple Mansion Domain.

Inside the sacred land of Biyou.

Since Chizhenzi's fall, the soul lamp he left behind in the Biyou Holy Land has been extinguished.

This news sent shockwaves through the entire Biyou Holy Land.

For Biyou Holy Land, losing a half-saint is no small matter.

In this day and age, semi-saints who can walk freely in the outside world are extremely rare.

not to mention.

Chi Zhenzi was no ordinary half-saint; he was a grandmaster of the eighth-rank, second-grade alchemy.

The sudden demise of the opponent is a loss even more severe than the loss of two or three other half-saints of the same level.

and so.

When news of Chizhenzi's demise spread, the Lord of Biyou Holy Land was furious.

Soon after, he ordered people to investigate the matter in order to find out the reason for Chizhenzi's death.

Simultaneously.

The other party also personally took action to deduce the secrets of heaven.

but--

After the Holy Lord of Biyou deduced the secrets of heaven, the previously turbulent situation in the holy land instantly calmed down, leaving many cultivators puzzled.

At the same time.

Inside an ancient celestial palace.

Biyou Saint Lord Ling Ruoxu sat cross-legged on the Great Dao Cloud Bed, where vast immortal energy and Daoist rhyme gathered and filled the entire Immortal Palace void, eventually evolving into the Three Flowers on his head.

Above the three flowers, the universe and galaxies evolved, and all living beings in heaven and earth were born and died.

I don't know how much time has passed.

All the strange phenomena dissipated.

Ling Ruoxu opened her tightly closed eyes and then let out a long breath.

"Phew, it's finally recovered!"

He felt the changes within himself, a look of relief on his face, but then, as if he had just thought of something, a look of seriousness appeared in his eyes.

"Who exactly killed Chi Zhenzi? Why would such a being attack Chi Zhenzi... Could it be that some other force has its eye on our Biyou Holy Land?!"

Ling Ruoxu still felt lingering fear when he thought about the scene where he deduced the secrets of Chizhenzi.

He is the master of Biyou Holy Land, and he had already reached the realm of sainthood countless years ago.

Even so, facing that sword that could sever the river of time, they still felt an immense threat.

Fortunately.

That was merely a phantom in the process of deducing the secrets of heaven.

If it truly exists, such power is something I could never contend with.

Even saints cannot escape death.

Ling Ruoxu asked himself, having lived for countless years and seen far too many powerful beings, but he had never seen many ancient beings who possessed such power.

Let alone the current Biyou Holy Land, even at its peak in ancient times, it would probably have to bow down in the face of such an existence.

and so.

Ling Ruoxu was no longer bothered to care whether Chi Zhenzi was dead or alive.

What he was truly concerned about was whether such a being would take action against Biyou Holy Land after killing Chizhenzi.

If they were to truly confront such an existence, Ling Ruoxu felt that perhaps the Biyou Holy Land should be moved from the Purple Mansion Domain.

In this situation, let alone the question of retaliation, it would be a blessing if the other party didn't come knocking on your door.

In order to distance himself from Biyou Holy Land and Chizhenzi as much as possible, Ling Ruoxu did not even allow any holy land cultivators to discuss the matter in secret.

In his view, Chi Zhenzi had already gone to Shenfeng Prefecture, and if he had perished, it was perhaps because he had inadvertently provoked some ancient being.

The latter may not be able to clearly understand that Chizhenzi came from the sacred land of Biyou.

In this way...

As long as Biyou Holy Land doesn't deliberately court disaster, there's a high probability there won't be any problems.

"However... there are still some problems that need to be resolved completely!"

Ling Ruoxu's expression was subtle. In the next instant, his figure disappeared from the Immortal Palace.

Almost at the same time, on a sacred mountain in the Biyou Holy Land, Ling Ruoxu's figure appeared.

here.

That is where Danfeng is located.

Upon noticing the commotion, the deputy peak master of Danfeng immediately appeared to pay his respects.

"Greetings, Holy Lord!"

"With Chi Zhenzi's demise, has there been any movement at Danfeng?"

"Under the decree of the Holy Land, most disciples on Dan Peak did not discuss this matter. However, some of the Peak Master's personal disciples had quite a few complaints about it!"

The deputy peak master dared not conceal anything and answered truthfully.

Ling Ruoxu's eyes turned slightly cold: "Since they have such deep feelings for Chizhenzi, let's reunite them."

This matter is entrusted to you. Remember to keep it discreet and don't cause too much of a stir.

"……Yes!"

The deputy peak master was shocked. He did not expect Ling Ruoxu to be so ruthless. No sooner had Chi Zhenzi died than he was about to erase all traces of him.

Thinking of this, the deputy peak master couldn't help but ask tentatively.

"May I ask, Holy Lord, Peak Master... no, what exactly caused the fall of Chi Zhenzi?"

These words were spoken.

Ling Ruoxu's expression turned cold as she stared intently at him: "Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask; it won't do you any good."

I will only tell you one thing: Chizhenzi offended someone he shouldn't have.

If we want these beings to avoid taking their anger out on the Biyou Holy Land, then everyone closely related to Chizhenzi must be eliminated.

"I understand!"

The deputy peak master was deeply shaken and dared not ask any more questions.

Then.

Ling Ruoxu then drifted away.

After the other party left, the deputy peak master wiped away non-existent sweat from his forehead and then a smile appeared on his face.

"I never expected this, Chizhenzi, you've finally met your match. You've been so domineering in Biyou Holy Land that you've forgotten your own limitations."

"That's fine too. Now that you're dead, the position of Peak Master of Danfeng should belong to me!"

The deputy peak master was more than happy to help eliminate the legacy left behind by Chi Zhenzi.

For many years, he had served as the deputy peak master of Danfeng, but he was always consistently outclassed by Chizhenzi.

With Chi Zhenzi around, my position as the deputy peak master was just a decoration, and no one cared about it.

The reason.

This is because Chi Zhenzi is an eighth-rank, second-grade Grandmaster, while he himself is only a seventh-rank Grandmaster.

Now that Chi Zhenzi is dead, the deputy peak master is naturally happy to see it happen.

The other party is dead.

He is the strongest expert in Danfeng, and the only Grandmaster at the peak of the seventh rank.

If I can get Ling Ruoxu's support, then becoming the peak master of Danfeng will definitely not be a problem.

soon.

The deputy peak master found a pretext to summon all of Chi Zhenzi's disciples and then swiftly eliminated them.

Although Chi Zhenzi was a half-saint, the strongest of his disciples was only at the Immortal Emperor realm.

For a half-saint like the deputy peak master, it was nothing to mention.

If Chizhenzi were alive, he would naturally not dare to so directly eliminate his disciples.

But things are different now.

Akashiko died.

His disciples' status plummeted.

With their own efforts to suppress the news, these things will naturally fade away over time.

-

"The Tongtian Pavilion is unusually quiet!"

While Ling Ruoxu was cleaning up his own house, Shen Changqing was also secretly keeping an eye on Tongtian Pavilion's movements within the Xingdao Alliance.

He had thought that Du Changshou's death would shake the entire Tongtian Pavilion.

result.

Aside from the initial turmoil at Tongtian Pavilion, it became eerily quiet afterwards.

Until now.

Tongtian Pavilion acted as if Du Changshou didn't exist, showing absolutely no concern for his death.

This change surprised even Shen Changqing.

However, based on the information from the Xingdao Alliance and the changes in Tongtian Pavilion, Shen Changqing could probably deduce some things.

Not surprisingly.

The Tongtian Pavilion must have a powerful expert who can deduce the secrets of heaven, but with the Soul-Destroying Sword present, the opponent is unlikely to gain anything from deducing the secrets of heaven.

For this reason, Tongtian Pavilion suspected that the one who killed Du Changshou was a top-tier expert, and did not want to break ties with such an expert because of the fall of a Celestial Emperor's steward.

Although Shen Changqing wasn't 100% certain about this guess, he thought it was pretty close to the truth.

"That's good. The more Tongtian Pavilion fears it, the less likely this matter will be traced back to me."

In this way, the hidden dangers of Tongtian Pavilion can be temporarily ignored.

The remaining area is the Biyou Holy Land—”

In Shen Changqing's view, the threat posed by Tongtian Pavilion was not as great as that of Biyou Holy Land.

The latter, having lost a half-saint and eighth-rank second-grade grandmaster, will absolutely not let this go.

If I were the master of Biyou Holy Land, I would definitely turn everything about Chizhenzi upside down in order to find out the truth behind his demise.

Shen Changqing's purpose in killing Du Changshou was also for this reason.

If Du Changshou is alive, there is a possibility that the Biyou Holy Land will trace him back to himself.

Only with Du Changshou dead can this secret be buried to the greatest extent possible.

Now that Du Changshou is dead, it's not impossible for Biyou Holy Land to sort out all the clues and gradually trace them back to themselves, but it's definitely not something they can do in a short time.

"Now we'll see how long this matter can be kept secret from Biyou Holy Land!"

Shen Changqing shook his head and continued to study the jade slip's inheritance.
