Chapter 2336: Chapter 2332: Settling Accounts after the Autumn_1

“And our Qingyu Gate!”

“Our Fenyang Sect!”

These Celestial Experts came to punish without exception, as they were enraged to the extreme. If they had lost only one or two members, they could have ignored it. But each of their Sects had suffered numerous losses that were simply incalculable – with dozens of Enlightenment Realm Experts gone, they couldn’t even begin to guess how long it would take to train new ones.

The amount of Jin Yang Fluid that they could’ve gotten from going to the Great Secret Realm was not even as much as they lost now, all thanks to Zhao Sikong’s scheme.

They had heard everything clearly from their subordinates.

If it weren’t for Yang Chen’s interference, it was highly likely that the entire group would have perished.

This had already touched the bottom line of all the forces, making them unable to bear it any longer!

Thus, they came to find Situ Zhenan in a fit of rage, demanding justice.

If it were only one or two, Situ Zhenan could have shielded a Dao Venerate by thickening his face and distorting the facts. But now, with so many Dao Venerate experts coming to accuse him, Situ Zhenan didn’t know how to continue shielding him.

“Bastard!” Situ Zhenan turned his face and stared at Zhao Sikong.

Zhao Sikong sensed the danger and hurriedly said, “Situ Tianzun, please listen to my explanation, listen to my explanation, ah.”

Situ Zhenan was enraged to the extreme and would not listen to Zhao Sikong’s meaningless explanations. He slapped him, and in an instant, Zhao Sikong vanished like smoke, turning into nothingness and completely perishing.

Seeing Zhao Sikong disintegrated and annihilated by one slap, the group of Celestial Experts finally felt somewhat relieved. Some of them still wanted to say something, but in the end, all they could do was glare at Situ Zhenan before leaving.

After all, who was going to take responsibility for the deaths of so many Enlightenment Realm Experts?

If it wasn’t for Situ Zhenan’s strength, they wouldn’t have let it go this easily.

As these Experts left, they couldn’t help but sneer.

Situ Zhenan’s face was full of embarrassment, knowing that he had let these people down. He could only reply with a bitter smile and didn’t say much before returning to the Taiyi Sect.

Now, the Xuandao Sect had returned to peace.

Dream Trace Daoist no longer dared to speak, completely unexpected that Yang Chen would effortlessly dissolve Zhao Sikong’s offense.

He was full of hatred in his heart. He had thought that Zhao Sikong, by causing trouble for Yang Chen, must have been well-prepared, so he put all his stakes into the gamble.

As a result, Zhao Sikong disappeared in the blink of an eye, which made Dream Trace Daoist feel panicked.

How could he not panic?

He could only hope that Yang Chen had forgotten what he said just now.

But how could Yang Chen forget?

At this moment, the group of people from other forces had left, and Yang Chen spoke, “Sun Zu, let’s talk about what Dream Trace Daoist mentioned.”

“En, Yang Chen, did you really gain nothing from this Great Secret Realm?” Sun Yao asked in astonishment, subconsciously feeling that Dream Trace Daoist, who had lived for tens of thousands of years, wouldn’t speak without a basis.

Without saying a word, Yang Chen took out a small bottle.

The small bottle contained a large amount of golden liquid. When Sun Yao saw it, his face was shocked, and he stared at it, unable to remain calm.

“This, this is Jin Yang Fluid?” Sun Yao, who had experienced much, recognized what it was at a glance.

Upon confirming that it was Jin Yang Fluid, Sun Yao took a deep breath, “This is more than a hundred drops, more than a hundred drops of Jin Yang Fluid?”

How could Sun Yao not be surprised? More than a hundred drops of Jin Yang Fluid represented more than a hundred unconditional Enlightenment Realm Experts.

While other forces suffered heavy losses, their Xuandao Sect gained more than a hundred Enlightenment Realm Experts directly, which was a sign of a powerful rise.

It was well known that Enlightenment Realm Experts were the mainstay of the Twelve States’ forces. This power was crucial; if not cultivated to the Nirvana Stage, the strength of these Enlightenment Realm Experts was key to resolving big and small matters in their daily lives.

Yang Chen now took out more than a hundred drops of Jin Yang Fluid, which was tantamount to producing more than a hundred Enlightenment Realm Experts.

How could he not be happy?

Looking at Dream Trace Daoist, his face was ashen and his body trembled.

He knew that this time, he had lost the bet.

“Sun Zu, the reason why I used my fire clone to lead the Xuandao Sect people was just to take the lead, explore the resources and environment ahead, and thus obtain more treasures. Unfortunately, it seems that some people don’t see it that way,” Yang Chen said.

Sun Zu was aware of the conflict between Yang Chen and Dream Trace Daoist. After hearing these words, he frowned and pondered.

It was said that one mountain could not contain two tigers; now, he was considering who was more valuable between Yang Chen and Dream Trace Daoist.

Yang Chen was full of anger now, but he did not intend to be relentless towards Dream Trace Daoist because the higher his realm, the more cautious he had to be.

If Dream Trace Daoist genuinely did not cause him trouble, he might have let him go.

But regrettably, Dream Trace Daoist did not realize this at all and did not understand that in Yang Chen’s eyes, he was just a small ant.

Yang Chen then said solemnly, “As for Dream Trace Daoist saying that I didn’t fulfill my captain’s duty, I want to say one thing: Sun Zu, you saw how many people other forces lost, and how many did our Xuandao Sect lose? I can responsibly say that all of this was because of me. So how can I, as a captain, not fulfill my duty?”

Fufeng Daoist knew it was time to speak up, “Yang Chen is indeed a responsible captain. Both his fire clone and his main body protected us very well!”

“Yang Chen is a responsible captain.”

“We think so too.”

Other Enlightenment Realm Experts from the Xuandao Sect stepped forward, knowing Yang Chen had changed and was now far superior to before.

Dream Trace Daoist looked around and realized that he was utterly abandoned and forsaken by everyone.

Sun Zu contemplated, and no matter how he thought about it, he couldn’t figure out which aspect of Dream Trace Daoist was more significant than Yang Chen. Out of helplessness, he could only say, “Dream Trace Daoist, you have committed many wrongs already, and now you’re trying to slander others. Furthermore, you are ungrateful and guilty of my Xuandao Sect’s heaviest crime. If I don’t punish you this time, how can I convince the rest!” As soon as the conversation ended, Sun Zu flipped his palm and unleashed a violent palm force. Dream Trace Daoist’s pupils contracted, and he was unable to resist. He immediately disappeared like Zhao Sikong, turning into nothingness.

Seeing all this, the rest of the Xuandao Sect couldn’t help but gasp in cold air.

They knew very well that, in fact, according to the few slanders Dream Trace Daoist made just now, he wouldn’t have been sentenced to death. But Sun Zu directly killed him with one palm. Why?

Because Sun Zu wanted to show Yang Chen!

This meant that Yang Chen’s value had reached the point where Sun Zu could openly favor him.

Upon careful thought, the others felt a mix of envy, jealousy, and hate. However, they also figured that if they could also hand over hundreds of drops of Jin Yang Fluid, they might receive the same treatment.
