Chapter 1774: Chapter 905_4

But in recent days, the reputation of Northern Abyss Immortal City in the Eastern Wilderness has spread even among the lower-level cultivators of East Wu.

Many loose cultivators have started to group together, attempting to cross the border to enter the Eastern Wilderness and enjoy the free air.

Sun Jude captured several batches of loose cultivators, and after interrogating them, he learned about this matter and immediately went to report to Sun Huanglong at the main house.

“Deploy all the idle cultivators and treasure ships of the clan and set up along the border to prevent the cultivators of East Wu from disturbing the Eastern Wilderness.”

Sun Huanglong thought for a moment and could only do so for now.

“Family Head, shouldn’t we negotiate with the Five Elements Sect? Surely they’re behind instigating this matter?”

Sun Jude spoke with some reluctance but was immediately met with a stern gaze from Sun Huanglong.

“Do not say this outside, if word reaches the two Nascent Soul Ancestors of the Five Elements Sect, the face left by Ancestor Huang Wu may not be useful.”

Sun Huanglong, as the leader of East Wu, was well aware of the weight carried by Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Even though their Sun family was considered a dominant force, once more powerful than the branch sect Five Elements Sect, in the face of two Nascent Soul Cultivators like Chen Mobai and Zhou Shengqing, they wouldn’t qualify to inquire with a Nascent Soul Major Faction, even with twenty more Golden Core cultivators.

The Sect Master Chen of the Five Elements Sect had a record of destroying countless sects since his debut, even trampled the Eastern Barbarian Profound Arrogance Dao Palace personally. If he got wind of the Sun family’s grievances, he might use it as an excuse for preventative measures and wipe out their family.

Sun Huanglong was most clear about the locals’ way of doing things.

Because if he were in Chen Mobai’s position, he would do the same.

“Yes, Family Head!”

Sun Jude, after hearing this, understood and could only leave with reluctance.

He returned to the shore, leading the Sun family’s cultivators and treasure ships back to the border lines of Yun Meng Ze, setting up in a line formation to stop East Wu’s cultivators from running into the Eastern Wilderness.

But this method couldn’t completely prevent it.

Since not everyone in the Sun family was loyal and diligent.

With such a long border line, there were always some greedy people, receiving Spirit Stones, then turning a blind eye and letting East Wu’s cultivators through.

Some powerful cultivator families even directly set up small teleportation arrays, charging other minor loose cultivator families.

Under different circumstances, these families wouldn’t dare offend the Sun family, but now many top cultivators of these families had already settled in Northern Abyss City. Even if the family cultivators left in East Wu were caught, they were unafraid.

Sun Jude, responsible for guarding the border, was naturally well aware of these matters.

But his slaying of family traitors and the massacre of East Wu’s minor families made East Wu cultivators even more inclined towards the Eastern Wilderness, increasing the trend of escape.

“Cursed Five Elements Sect!”

Sun Jude discovered this point, angrily smashed the wine cup in his hand but dared not speak the words, only dared to shout in his heart.

“Father, East Wu’s decline is already a trend, why don’t we take this chance and make a significant gain?”

At this moment, a handsome armored young man with red lips and white teeth entered, seeing the shattered wine cup on the ground, and spoke.

“What do you want to say?”

The young man, named Sun Baili, was a Foundation Establishment practitioner at a young age and was considered the most likely to form a Golden Core among the Sun family’s next generation, always a source of pride for Sun Jude.

“I know a senior cultivator hiding on a Spiritual Island in Yun Meng Ze. He wants to take this opportunity and use East Wu’s defectors to ritual a Great Method, willing to pay a big price.”

Upon Sun Baili’s words, Sun Jude’s eyes widened, and he unleashed a fierce surge of Spiritual Power, forming an invisible pressure surrounding the young man tightly.

“You are colluding with the Demon Path!”

Only the Demon Path needed to use cultivators to ritual cultivation techniques, and Sun Baili’s words made Sun Jude understand his implication.

“Father, viewing the Five Elements Sect’s conduct, without Nascent Soul cultivators, the Sun family will sooner or later be annexed. The Family Head has a weak character and might be the first to surrender the whole family, we have to prepare for ourselves early!”

Sun Baili, however, remained unchanged in expression, speaking out his already prepared words, and simultaneously shimmering with an extremely strange Spiritual Power, actually breaking free from Sun Jude’s restraint.

Seeing this, Sun Jude’s pupils dilated, anger surging.

“You have cultivated Demonic Arts!”

“Father, if I am discovered by the Nine Heavens Morality Sect, you can hardly escape death, even the whole Sun family might be implicated.”

Sun Baili was also risking it all today, holding fame as a young genius thanks to the Demonic Arts, something which could not be concealed when the Heavenly Tribulation of Core Formation was invoked.

Moreover, his cultivation level was already Foundation Establishment Late Stage, so upon seeing this opportunity, he decided to expose it in front of Sun Jude.

But because it was his father in front of him, he dared to do so.

“Who is the Demon Path cultivator behind you?”

Sure enough, upon discovering his son cultivated Demonic Arts, Sun Jude quickly calmed down, asking.

“Father, please follow me!”

As the father and son went to meet the Demon Path cultivator, Sun Huanglong was also looking at the letter newly delivered to his hand, trembling slightly.

This letter had mysteriously appeared in his study, indicating that the one who delivered it had cultivation far beyond his own.

And Sun Huanglong was already Perfect Core Formation, those above him…

But why would such a cultivator do these things?

The letter simply stated one thing.

It was about the identity and origin of Zhou Ye, the Earth Vein Elder of the Five Elements Sect.

“A remnant seed of the Zhou family…”

After reading, Sun Huanglong gripped the letter tightly, recalling how, during the Five Elements Sect’s grand ceremony for Patriarch Chen in Northern Abyss City, Zhou Ye had specially come over to greet him.

He now fully understood the meaning of Zhou Ye’s words back then.

Sun Huanglong also remembered the intelligence about Zhou Ye.

A Heavenly Earth Spirit Root, an inheritor of the Primordial Dao Fruit, a Perfect Core Formation cultivator, the third possible person in the Five Elements Sect to achieve Nascent Soul Formation.

If Zhou Ye truly achieved Nascent Soul Formation, would the Sun family, who eradicated the Zhou family, still have a chance to survive!?

Sun Huanglong’s heart suddenly filled with shadows!

And at this moment, he understood the reason why this letter was delivered to him!

Was it an enemy of the Five Elements Sect?

…

Chen Mobai naturally knew nothing of what was happening in East Wu.

He was currently at the Jumang Academy.

And in front of him was Yan Bingxuan, who had just emerged from Core Formation seclusion.

After listening to Chen Mobai’s apologetic confession, Yan Bingxuan looked at him coldly without speaking a word.

After a while, she transformed directly into an icy light, disappearing from the water surface.

Chen Mobai hesitated for a moment but could only sigh.

“Aren’t you going to follow and comfort her?”

A flash of silver light appeared, and Wenren Xuewei materialized beside Chen Mobai, tilting her head and squinting her eyes, asking.

“Oh, you’ve mastered Void Walking.”

Chen Mobai, however, didn’t answer her question; what good would it do to appease her even if he caught up. Ever since announcing Shi Wanyu and mother and daughter, he had already prepared for this.
