Seeing Zou Jingtong seemingly in a daze, not imdiately dealing with the severely injured Earth Immortal in the distance, one of the True Immortals asked perplexedly, "Elder Zhou, is this the person who disrupted the Sect Master’s plan?"
"Why have you not dealt with him yet?"
Zou Jingtong frowned and said, "He is Chen Lu, the Direct Disciple of the Hall Master of Mysterious Moon Palace!"
Hearing this, the other elders were instantly stunned.
Chen Lu???
This is trouble!
If Chen Lu reports the incident here to the Mysterious Moon Palace, then their Purple Illusion Sect might be wiped out within two months.
A True Immortal elder ca to his senses, eyes filled with murderous intent as he looked at Lu Chen and said, "Then we definitely cannot let him live!"
"Why is Elder Zhou still hesitating?"
Just as this elder was about to take action personally, Zou Jingtong spoke, "How do you know he doesn’t have any Magic Treasure on him? Or that there isn’t a Protector accompanying him?"
This...
Hearing Zou Jingtong’s words, the elders imdiately realized that typically, offspring of major forces are accompanied by Protectors.
After all, Chen Lu is the Direct Disciple of the Hall Master of Mysterious Moon Palace, making it highly probable that he has a Protector with him. If they act now, it’s very likely to provoke that Protector.
So, not only have their actions been discovered by Chen Lu, but possibly by the Protector behind him as well?
At the thought of this, their faces turned pale, cold sweat dripping.
If only Chen Lu discovered them, he’s rely an Earth Immortal. They are three True Immortals and two Heavenly Immortals; killing one Earth Immortal like Chen Lu would be as easy as flipping a hand.
But if discovered by Chen Lu’s Protector and what the Purple Illusion Sect has done, never mind silencing him—it’s more likely they might end up dead.
With Chen Lu’s identity, if the Protector behind him isn’t an Immortal Monarch, at least it might be a Golden Immortal, right?
Neither an Immortal Monarch nor a Golden Immortal is soone they can contend with.
What to do now?
Seeing the gathered elders of Purple Illusion Sect staring at him, not daring to move, Lu Chen chuckled softly. He naturally understood why they didn’t dare to attack— they were simply wary of a possible Protector behind him.
He could use this misunderstanding to bluff them. Lu Chen then said, "Tell , how did you guess my identity? I’m quite curious who told you that I was out training."
At this mont, Zou Jingtong’s deanor changed, a smile appearing as he said, "Chen Lu, this is all a misunderstanding. I previously didn’t know you were the Direct Disciple of the Hall Master of Mysterious Moon Palace. I apologize for any offenses and hope you can forgive ."
Lu Chen looked at Zou Jingtong and the others with a playful expression, saying casually, "Do I look like an idiot to you?"
Upon hearing this, one elder could no longer hold back and said directly, "Whether we advance bravely or retreat cowardly, we’re already exposed. Now we must bet that this kid doesn’t have a Protector behind him. Didn’t the emissary say that there were only two Heavenly Immortals with him? What if there really are only two Heavenly Immortals and no other Protectors?"
As soon as the words left his mouth, that elder clenched the hamr in his hand and struck directly at Lu Chen. A gigantic hamr appeared in the air, coming down on Lu Chen with overwhelming pressure.
Lu Chen once again felt trendous pressure, and it was indeed difficult for him to contend with a True Immortal. However, Lu Chen still didn’t use the Immortal King’s Remain Curse at the first mont. He wanted to see if there were any other Immortals from Purple Illusion Sect who would appear.
The Immortal King’s Remain Curse, once used, requires a long ti to recharge. It’s his lifeline and he’s just a clone anyway, dying would be no matter.
Without wife or children by his side, his clone could die without any impact on him.
Lu Chen gripped the Immortal Slaying Sword tightly in his hand, swinging it, Green Fall Cyan Dragon Roar!!!
After releasing a sword strike, Lu Chen simultaneously used the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture.
Suddenly, countless oil lamp visions appeared in the sky. The red glow from these lamps made Zou Jingtong and the others feel extrely uncomfortable, as if the Immortal Aura within was solidified.
However, the limitation imposed by the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture on them wasn’t as severe as imagined. Although they pledged allegiance to the Blood Eagle Hall, they had not yet cultivated the Evil Technique and were not considered Evil Immortals, having no Evil Qi within. The Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture could rely exhibit the power of a Heaven Rank Immortal Law and couldn’t fully restrain them.
The elder who just attacked saw the Immortal Slaying Sword in Lu Chen’s hand and was suddenly overjoyed, "A Heaven Rank Immortal Sword! As expected of the Direct Disciple of the Hall Master of Mysterious Moon Palace. Elder Zou, since you didn’t act, this Heaven Rank Immortal Sword is mine!"
Zou Jingtong only frowned slightly, still refraining from action. He was prepared to flee at any mont.
He wanted to first see if a Protector would appear when Chen Lu faced a life-and-death crisis. If no Protector appeared, it wouldn’t be too late to act.
As for the Heaven Rank Immortal Sword in Chen Lu’s hand, not just anyone can lay a hand on a Heaven Rank Immortal Sword. Their Sect Master’s hand also only has Earth Rank Immortal Artifacts, at most a Pseudo-Heavenly Rank Immortal Artifact Ghost King Cauldron from a special emissary.
If their Sect Master knew they obtained a Heaven Rank Immortal Sword, they would surely be asked to hand it over. Even if the Sect Master didn’t, the emissary from Blood Eagle Hall would likely demand it; they wouldn’t be able to keep the Heaven Rank Immortal Sword.
Just as the giant hamr in the sky was about to smash into Lu Chen, the dragon ford by the Sword Qi that Lu Chen had unleashed collided with it, resulting in a large explosion due to the violent clash of two Immortal Auras. As before, after a loud explosion, the shockwave from the Immortal Aura blast pushed both sides apart.
At this point, the man holding the hamr said, "No wonder he could beco a Direct Disciple of the Hall Master of Mysterious Moon Palace; this kid has so talent. If he were a Heavenly Immortal, I might not be able to handle him."
"It’s a pity he’s still an Earth Immortal. Such a prodigy mustn’t be allowed to grow up!"
As he spoke, the man charged towards the direction of the Immortal Aura explosion with his hamr, unconvinced that Lu Chen was killed by his strike. Given he could unleash such a powerful Sword Qi, it proved he wasn’t an ordinary Earth Immortal; they couldn’t rely consider him as such.
Like Tan Cang thought, as he approached the area of the Immortal Aura explosion, he sensed Lu Chen’s presence, discovering the opponent was still alive. Tan Cang directly used Immortal Aura to disperse all the dust from the explosion.
The next mont, Lu Chen appeared in front of everyone once more.
At this ti, Lu Chen looked in a dire state, his clothes almost completely shredded, his entire body covered in blood, appearing severely injured and utterly miserable.
