“D*mn it!”

Zhuo Donglai wore the grimmest expression. He wanted to chase after Chu Kuangren, but before he could, a group of people surrounded him.

Each of the people had powerful demonic qi swirling around them.

They were the sky-prides and Heavenly Champions of the Demonic Dao.

‘Are they that b*stard’s friends? They are really something else,’ Zhuo Donglai thought.

“Get out of my face!”

Zhuo Donglai threw a punch without any explanation, and his fist unleashed the sun’s worth of Immortal Sparks.

Chi Zhong of the Chiyou Tribe was the first among others to face the scorching punch.

He was shocked by the person’s decision to attack without any kind of explanation or negotiation.

“Black Dragon Slash!”

He swung the saber in his hand forward.

The ferocious black dragon collided with the sun, causing a blast of energy to sweep out in every direction and tear the void.

Chi Zhong was pushed several hundred meters backward by the blast.

“How powerful! Who is this person?!”

The other sky-prides and Heavenly Champions’ expressions turned grim.

“How dare you cause trouble in Luo Hou Ancestral Land?!”

“Attacking without saying a thing? It seems like this person is the mastermind behind the internal conflict!”

“Die!”

“Let’s fight!”

The other Demonic Dao sky-prides attacked.

Rumbling demonic qi clashed with the Primordial Sun energy, painting a scene of day and night colliding. Countless Daoist patterns intertwined and released a powerful energy fluctuation that leveled mountains in the surrounding area.

However, no matter how powerful Zhuo Donglai was, he was one person and being outnumbered soon put him in a disadvantageous position.

“D*mn it! I’ll lose if this continues! I can’t just die here!” Zhuo Donglai somehow felt scared.

“Stop this at once!”

Suddenly, a loud voice sounded.

Shi Tianxuan arrived and stopped the ongoing fight.

“Shi Tianxuan? What’s the meaning of this?”

Everyone else was baffled by his arrival.

Shi Tianxuan looked at Zhuo Donglai and said, “The cultivation technique you used… You’re from Eastern King School. Who are you?”

“I’m the Heavenly Champion of the Eastern King School, Zhuo Donglai!”

“It’s you, the one who fought Chu Kuangren with Chi Zhan. Aren’t you dead?”

“That was just a clone of mine.”

“I see. What are you doing in this place?” Shi Tianxuan asked.

It was obvious that he refused to kill Zhuo Donglai because he did not want to create tension between the Demonic Dao Sects and Eastern King School.

“I am here to look for a person, but she has been taken away by a demonic cultivator.” Zhuo Donglai’s expression was ugly.

He had spent a lot of effort and time capturing Fu Yin, and at the brink of success, some unknown demonic cultivator intervened and ruined his plans. He was in his worst mood.

“Demonic cultivator? What kind of demonic cultivator is powerful enough to take someone away from you?” Shi Tianxuan asked with furrowed brows.

Zhuo Donglai was powerful, and they could only overpower him with the combined strength of many sky-prides and Heavenly Champions from all Ten Demonic Dao Sects.

Even Shi Tianxuan dared not to take someone from Zhuo Donglai alone.

Was there a demonic cultivator in Luo Hou Ancestral Land strong enough to take someone away from Zhuo Donglai alone?

“That person is a strange one. He can use almost all the cultivation techniques of Chiyou Tribe, Yin Underworld Tribe, and even Sword Demon Tribe. The person he took from me is important to me, and if you people don’t wish to fall out with the Eastern King School, I suggest you hand the person over,” Zhuo Donglai said coldly.

Shi Tianxuan pondered on Zhuo Donglai’s words.

“Someone who can use the cultivation techniques of three Demonic Dao Sects… To be honest, Brother Zhuo, we are also looking for this person. This person is the culprit behind our recent internal conflict,” Shi Tianxuan said after a deep breath.

The other sky-prides and Heavenly Champions exchanged a pensive look upon hearing that.

“Are you sure that’s the culprit who caused the internal conflict?” You Ying asked.

“We have been searching for this person for many days now, and our efforts have fallen short. So what if he is a demonic cultivator? Besides, if he possessed the techniques of different sects, he would be able to disguise himself as a demonic cultivator of a specific tribe to create conflict with the other. Only with such capabilities could he have created such a mess in Luo Hou Ancestral Land within a short period of time.”

“I see.”

The others thought it made sense too.

“What about him?”

You Ying looked toward Zhuo Donglai.

“As for Brother Zhuo, I believe he’s just after his own target and chased the person into Luo Hou Ancestral Lan. The culprit targeted Brother Zhuo because he wanted to create conflict between the Demonic Dao Sects and Eastern King School. The culprit is really an evil one,” Shi Tianxuan said coldly.

“B*stard. Don’t let me find him, or I’ll cut him into a million pieces.”

The whole Demonic Dao Sects fell into turmoil because of a single person, and it infuriated every one of them.

“Brother Zhuo, since we share a common enemy, why don’t we work together and locate that person of interest? Then, we will kill our culprit, and you can retrieve your target,” Shi Tianxuan suggested.

“Great!” Zhuo Donglai nodded after some deliberate consideration.

Then, he turned to the Yin Underworld Tribe’s successor, You Ying, as he sensed something surprising. “Brother, what kind of Yin physique do you possess?”

He had noticed You Ying’s physique after the little fight.

Although You Ying was a guy, he was attracted to him in a strange way. It was not because of his sexual orientation, but it was the resonance his Primordial Sun Immortal Physique reacted to a powerful Yin energy source.

“Primordial Yin Demonic Physique,” You Ying said.

“I see,” Zhuo Donglai murmured in disappointment.

Unfortunately, You Ying was a guy. If You Ying were a woman, Zhuo Donglai could combine with him, and it would be as effective as absorbing the Fu Sang Spirit. That way, he could also upgrade his physique to the Duality Rites Immortal Physique.

…

Chu Kuangren took Fu Yin to a certain mountain peak.

Then, he raised his hand and set up layers of restriction seals around the mountain peak.

“Can you release me now?” Fu Yin said coldly as she was still in his arms.

Chu Kuangren chuckled and released Fu Yin.

He was calm and had no unusual emotions or feelings about holding a beautiful woman in his arms.

It was Fu Yin who was blushing shyly.

Although strange, she felt safe in Chu Kuangren’s arms.

She was supposed to be a cool beauty, but with the blush on her face, she looked like the melting snow with flowers blooming around. She was utterly beautiful.

Soon, she regained her composure and expressed her gratitude for Chu Kuangren. “Thank you for saving me, Daoist Brother. May I know your name?”

“Chu Kuangren.” Chu Kuangren revealed his identity with a smile.

The spiritual veil on his face then faded, revealing his handsome features. His handsome looks shadowed all that existed in the realm.

Even Fu Yin was shaken by his looks.

In addition to the sense of familiarity she felt from him, the cool beauty’s heart raced.

What shocked her more was the name Chu Kuangren.

She had heard of the name before — a lot, in fact.

The fight at Kunlun Secret Realm made Chu Kuangren’s name well-known among the Heavenly Champions.

Fu Yin was also a Heavenly Champion, and she had always wanted to meet him in person but not under such circumstances.

“Brother Chu, why did you save me?” she asked.

“It’s nothing in particular. Whoever Zhuo Donglai wants to kill, I’ll save. That’s it,” Chu Kuangren said nonchalantly.

It was one of the reasons why he saved her from Zhuo Donglai.

The other reason was the resonance his Yang Fusang clone had with Fu Yin. He wanted to find out what the resonance could achieve.

In short, he saved Fu Yin out of convenience and ruined Zhuo Donglai’s plans along the way. He was more than happy to do so.

“I see. But Zhuo Donglai seems to have a unique technique to track me, and I believe he’ll be here soon.”

“Oh? In that case, he better bring his friends along.” Chu Kuangren chuckled as a hint of delight lit up in his eyes.

Then, he pointed his sword hand sign forward, and the vast earth qi within a million kilometers gathered upon him.
