Translator: 549690339

Within Shiyuan Hall, all eyes were on Elder Zhang, and Zhou Xue’s brows were also deeply furrowed.

Elder Zhang’s whole body trembled, the hand holding the Jade Slip seemed to not believe the intelligence he had received.

Yang Yuanzi urged in a hurried voice, “Just say it, will you! What are you quivering for?”

Lu Yuanjun stared intently at Elder Zhang, his eyes unable to hide his anticipation.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Elder Zhang took a deep breath and ground out through clenched teeth:

“Green Cicada Valley Master Pang Tuntian set up an ambush in the Hundred Thousand Mountains. The elite troops of Green Cicada Valley emerged, with the least powerful disciple also being in the Soul Sculpting Realm. Totalling twenty thousand in number, they also established the Myriad Poison Array!”

Myriad Poison Array!

These three words caused a stir among those present. Guang Qiuxian even spat out a mouthful of blood in shock, falling weakly onto the cushion.

“Green Cicada Valley! Damn them!” Chen Anshi cursed through gritted teeth.

Yang Yuanzi was struck as if by lightning, standing frozen on the spot. The three Direct Disciples from the third branch also showed signs of panic, with the senior disciple Li Yu trembling all over.

Lu Yuanjun struggled to contain the excitement in his heart, but the corners of his mouth involuntarily turned upwards with joy. Fortunately, at this moment, no one noticed him.

Zhou Xue narrowed her eyes, filled with a cold light.

“Wait! Sect Leader, don’t panic! I haven’t finished speaking! Fang Wang isn’t dead!” Elder Zhang, seeing Guang Qiuxian vomit blood, hurriedly shouted, once again attracting everyone’s attention.

Yang Yuanzi immediately approached him and, seizing his robe, cursed angrily, “Can’t you say everything at once?”

“This news is too shocking; I hadn’t yet come to my senses,” Elder Zhang said aggrievedly. “Fang Wang is fine. It is Green Cicada Valley that suffered!”

Without waiting for everyone to ask, he quickly reported:

“Green Cicada Valley, with nearly twenty thousand of its elite troops, attacked Fang Wang alone. Little did they know Fang Wang had a Demon King in his hand. One man and one demon resisted the assault of Green Cicada Valley. Green Cicada Valley Master Pang Tuntian was beheaded by Fang Wang on the battlefield. Even the Myriad Poison Array they set up was forcefully broken through by Fang Wang. It is suspected that Fang Wang performed the Nine Dragons Divine Transformation Art, and what’s more, it was the never-before-seen Black Dragon Form!”

“Over five thousand from Green Cicada Valley were slaughtered by Fang Wang. The exact casualties are still unclear. In the end, Green Cicada Valley was so devastated that they were forced to flee in all directions!”

“This news is already starting to spread in the Grand Qi Cultivation Realm. The intelligence in my hand was extracted from a Green Cicada Valley Demonic Cultivator by one of the Direct Disciples!”

Having said all this in one breath, the entire Shiyuan Hall fell into silence, the expressions on everyone’s faces stupefied, even Guang Qiuxian’s mouth gaped open unconsciously.

Zhou Xue’s expression returned to normal, the corners of her mouth lifting in a smile.

Lu Yuanjun was like a man struck by lightning, standing there dumbfounded.

Chen Anshi, who had been vigorously supporting Lu Yuanjun before, also froze, wondering if he had heard wrong.

“Is it true?” Yang Yuanzi asked while grasping Elder Zhang’s shoulder, his voice shaky with excitement coloring his face.

Elder Zhang, equally moved, handed the Jade Slip to Yang Yuanzi and said, “Absolutely true. Read it for yourself if you don’t believe me!”

Yang Yuanzi immediately sent his divine consciousness into the Jade Slip.

“Hahahahaha—”

Guang Qiuxian suddenly burst into loud laughter. Laughing too intensely aggravated his injuries, causing him to cough and hastily sit down to channel his cultivation.

After Yang Yuanzi finished reading the Jade Slip, he started laughing as well. The other Elders crowded around, snatching the Jade Slip from his hand to read the intelligence contained within.

“It’s true!”

“He has become this powerful?”

“The Heaven Yuan Spirit Treasure has never appeared before; indeed, we cannot measure him with common sense.”

“No wonder Green Cicada Valley didn’t come; they were held back by him.”

“More than just held back, so many Elders died, even the Valley Master is dead, Green Cicada Valley is finished!”

The Elders excitedly discussed among themselves, while the Direct Disciples also felt exhilarated, whispering to each other. Disciples who had close relations with Lu Yuanjun looked towards him with worry.

As for this, Lu Yuanjun had no choice but to show a smile of joy, but unfortunately, this time it was clear to everyone that his smile was strained.

There was no helping it, the impact was too great!

If Fang Wang had merely broken through the siege, that would have been shocking enough.

But Fang Wang went so far as to slaughter through Green Cicada Valley!

It was beyond imagination!

Could it be that Fang Wang had become so strong that he could contend against an entire sect by himself?

Zhao Chuanqian turned to Guang Qiuxian and said gravely, “Sect Leader, the position as the senior-most disciple needs reconsideration.”

Upon hearing this, quite a few Elders agreed. This time, Yang Yuanzi did not speak; he stood aside, lost in a state of joy for a long time.

Chen Anshi held back his words and, in the end, gave up.

Breaking through Green Cicada Valley was an enormous merit indeed!

Guang Qiuxian took a deep breath and announced, “The position of the senior-most disciple will be discussed upon Fang Wang’s return. During the period of my recuperation, Elder Zhao Chuanqian will take charge of the sect’s affairs.”

No one objected; the vast majority of Elders showed expressions of joy. With a Great Cultivator like Fang Wang in the Great Abyss Gate, the future was bound to soar!

Lu Yuanjun’s face remained calm, and no one could see through what he was thinking.

…

Whoosh——

In the midst of the mountains, Fang Wang sat cross-legged by the edge of a small lake, practicing his Qi Gathering meditation. Next to the lake was a waterfall, fifty feet high, with water splashing in all directions.

On the other side of Fang Wang, not far away, numerous storage bags piled up on the grass. Xiao Zi was currently checking each one, and with every bag she opened, poisonous insects would emerge, only to be swallowed by her in one gulp, which was enough to make one feel nauseous.

Six days had passed since the battle with Green Cicada Valley, and Fang Wang planned to return to the Great Abyss Gate after his Spiritual Power had fully recovered, to prevent the possibility of Demonic Sects ambushing him on the rest of the journey.

“Come out now, how much longer would Your Excellency intend to hide in the shadows?”

Fang Wang suddenly spoke out and slowly opened his eyes, his gaze fixed on the woods across the small lake.

Hearing this, Xiao Zi raised her snake head anxiously and looked across the lake.

The woods on the other side of the lake were silent. Five breaths passed, and just as Xiao Zi was about to speak, a voice rang out:

“Oh dear, the young master has discovered me. Don’t be angry, young master. I have nothing to do with Green Cicada Valley. I followed you because I care about you.”

This voice was coy and charming, striking at one’s heartstrings and provoking fanciful thoughts.

A willowy woman dressed in green emerged from the forest; she was barefoot, and as she walked, her thighs gleamed through the slits of her dress, pale and luminescent. Her neckline was low, revealing a deep cleavage. She was strikingly beautiful, with her long hair twisted into a bun, adorned with three pearl-encrusted hairpins.

At first glance, Fang Wang thought the woman had escaped from a brothel, but he felt a dangerous aura emanating from her.

Not weaker than the Sword Sect’s Kong Xi!

Fang Wang narrowed his eyes and asked, “Who are you?”

So white…

The woman in green covered her mouth and chuckled, “My name is Tu Caiyi. I wonder if the young master has heard of me?”

Fang Wang stared at her, his right hand conjuring the Qiankun Fan, and then he stood up and said, “I haven’t heard of you. If you’re here as a foe, then come forth.”

“Oh, young master, you’re really in a hurry. I’ve already said, I came here out of concern for you. Oh right, I forgot to mention the name of my sect. I am from the Jin Xiao Sect, the Eastern Slaughter Heavenly King. You must have heard of this, haven’t you?” the woman in green said with a coquettish pose, throwing a flirtatious glance at Fang Wang.

Fang Wang almost got goosebumps. This woman was really overdoing it, making him itch to fan her aside.

Suppressing the impulse to swat her, he asked, “The Jin Xiao Sect? What brings you here? Does it have to do with Zhou Xue?”

“The young master is truly clever. Ever since the Sword Sect challenged you, Zhou Xue has been worried and asked me to protect you in secret until you return to the Great Abyss Gate. Your battle with the Sword Sect… it really piqued my interest. A man like you is exactly what I adore…” Tu Caiyi said, even licking her lips at this point.

It really was Zhou Xue!

Fang Wang felt warmed by the thought; this woman, like him, said one thing but meant another.

Tu Caiyi sighed, “Seeing the young master being surrounded and attacked by Green Cicada Valley, I was so anxious. I never expected the young master to be so powerful, managing to break through Green Cicada Valley with just a snake demon by his side. I admire you.”

“Young master, I see you are recovering your Spiritual Power. Shall I give you a hand? I know a dual cultivation technique that could greatly increase your cultivation.”

Having said that, she stared intently at Fang Wang.

Fang Wang didn’t fully trust her and directly declined, “No need, I don’t like women!”

Tu Caiyi paused for a moment upon hearing this.

Xiao Zi turned its head to look at Fang Wang, its snake eyes shining brightly.

“What exactly is Zhou Xue’s status within the Jin Xiao Sect that she could ask someone of your standing to protect me?” Fang Wang couldn’t help but inquire.

Tu Caiyi brushed her hair aside and said, “Her? She is the precious disciple of the Demon Monarch. I must say, she has some vision and has helped me a lot. I owe her my life.”

Her tone had changed, becoming much colder, a stark contrast to her previously frivolous demeanor.

The disciple of the Demon Monarch?

For some reason, Fang Wang felt inexplicably annoyed.

“May I ask if the Demon Monarch is male or female?” Fang Wang continued to press Tu Caiyi.

Upon hearing this, Tu Caiyi couldn’t help but giggle behind her hand.

“What would it matter if the Monarch is a male? If the Demon Monarch wants to marry her, what would you do then?” Tu Caiyi countered with a cold laugh.

Fang Wang calmly responded, “It wouldn’t matter to me; I just want to hear the truth, why provoke me?”

Tu Caiyi shook her head, unable to hold back a sigh, “You’re just like Zhou Xue, young yet so precocious. I can’t deceive you… Alright, I’ll tell you the truth, the Demon Monarch is a woman. Are you satisfied now?”

Fang Wang’s heart relaxed, but he kept a composed face, “Even if it were a man, it wouldn’t matter.”

Tu Caiyi rolled her eyes at him, huffed, “Men.”

Without waiting for Fang Wang to reply, she earnestly said, “Enough joking around, let’s go. Nearby is a blessed land that could help you recover your Spiritual Power sooner. The sooner you recover, the sooner I can send you back to the Great Abyss Gate and be free to leave. Sticking around with a child like you here is dull.”

Fang Wang was speechless.

Why had this woman’s attitude flipped so drastically?

“For real?” Fang Wang asked cautiously.

“Believe it or not!”

Having said that, Tu Caiyi turned and left, swaying her graceful hips as she went.

Fang Wang immediately stretched out his hand, drawing all the nearby storage bags to surround him, and then he leapt across the small lake.

Xiao Zi hurriedly followed, perching on Fang Wang’s shoulder, and whispered, “Young master, be careful. That woman is very dangerous. I have a feeling she’s up to no good.”

Fang Wang quietly said, “Let’s go see. If she has ill intentions, by following us, she’ll show her hand sooner or later.”

He didn’t use the Sound Transmission Technique, purposely letting Tu Caiyi hear.

Tu Caiyi in front didn’t turn around as if she hadn’t heard.
