"Elder Ouyang, Elder Ouyang!" In the cultivation chamber, Ye Chen cried out in overwhelming grief.
But Elder Ouyang could no longer answer him.
"Duanmu Ying, if I don't kill you, I swear I'm not human." Ye Chen's eyes turned blood-red, and his fists clenched tightly as his entire chest filled with rage, even his teeth were nearly ground to pieces.
He vowed that no matter how powerful Duanmu Ying was, he would kill her to avenge Ouyang Zhong.
After a good while, Ye Chen gradually cald down.
Wiping the tears from the corners of his eyes, with a thought, he placed Ouyang Zhong's corpse into the Human Emperor's Space.
Right now, he couldn't let anyone know he had seen Ouyang Zhong's last mont, otherwise, Duanmu Ying would very likely kill him to silence witnesses.
So he had to first store Ouyang Zhong's body in the Human Emperor's Space and pretend nothing had happened.
"Elder Ouyang, when I have the power to kill Duanmu Ying, I will make sure you rest in peace, just bear with it for now." Ye Chen said mournfully.
His Human Emperor's Space was completely isolated from the outside world, so storing Ouyang Zhong's body inside would prevent any decay.
Even so, Ye Chen didn't want Elder Ouyang's body to stay in the Human Emperor's Space for too long, he truly wished to let Ouyang Zhong be laid to rest as soon as possible.
"Beco stronger, I must beco stronger, otherwise, not only can I not let Elder Ouyang rest in peace, I can't even protect Teacher Ouyang!" Ye Chen's heart surged with a strong sense of crisis.
Before dying, Ouyang Zhong entrusted Ouyang Xue to him, surely because sothing major was about to happen.
If Ye Chen didn't quickly grow stronger, Ouyang Xue would be in mortal danger at any ti.
If anything were to happen to Ouyang Xue, how could Ye Chen face Ouyang Zhong's spirit in the heavens?
"Elder Ouyang's death, I cannot tell anyone yet, especially Teacher Ouyang, if she knew Elder Ouyang had perished, she might collapse instantly!" Ye Chen sighed inwardly.
He planned to keep this hidden until the ti was right, before telling Ouyang Xue.
Otherwise, Ouyang Qingxue might not be able to bear such a blow.
Humm!
A cup of tea later, Ye Chen once again sat cross-legged on the white mat, starting to compress and refine the True Qi within him.
Though his heart was filled with imnse grief, he had no choice but to continue cultivating.
Only by becoming strong enough could he kill Duanmu Ying and seek justice for Ouyang Zhong.
"Old Shi, that old dog Ouyang Zhong has disappeared, he might have already returned to Celestial Fla City and leaked our affairs, if all the cultivators in Celestial Fla City found out about this, even I couldn't silence them." At this mont, in a secret chamber within the Duanmu Family residence, Duanmu Ying's face was covered in an icy chill, her expression incredibly grim,
said.
She and Xiahou Shi had returned to Celestial Fla City as quickly as they could, yet they still hadn't found any trace of Ouyang Zhong.
This made her feel sowhat uneasy.
If Ouyang Zhong went for broke and made public the matter of Duanmu Ying's ambush, the consequences would be unimaginable.
She couldn't very well kill all the inhabitants of Celestial Fla City to silence them.
"Master of Profound Sword Peak, you're overthinking this, that old dog took the Nine Revolutions Profound Pill, whether he can return to Celestial Fla City alive is an issue, and even if he did return, he'd surely be on his last breath, how could he have ti to make this public?" Xiahou Shi, beside Duanmu Ying, chuckled coldly, as if everything was within his grasp.
"I'll send soone to investigate and find out." Duanmu Ying nodded in agreent.
If Ouyang Zhong had indeed made the affair public, it would already be spreading like wildfire throughout Celestial Fla City, Duanmu Ying just needed to send soone out to investigate and she'd know the result.
Half an hour later.
"No, that old dog Ouyang Zhong hasn't shown up in front of everyone." After receiving the report from her subordinates, Duanmu Ying couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
As long as Ouyang Zhong hadn't made the affair public and caused a commotion, Duanmu Ying had no fear.
Even if Ouyang Zhong had told so confidants about it, she could have them silenced.
Furthermore, even if those confidants spread the word, they wouldn't have enough evidence to prove that Ouyang Zhong was killed by her, which posed no threat to Duanmu Ying.
"I told you not to worry, that old dog is surely dead by now, those who took the Nine Revolutions Profound Pill are incurable, now, it's ti for to go back and prepare, when the Ouyang Family is completely abandoned by the Azure Sky Immortal Sect, it will be the family's end." Xiahou Shi spoke expressionlessly, with a terrifying killing intent emanating from him.
Whoosh.
Following that, his body vanished into the darkness.
"Now that old dog is dead, the War King Hall is leaderless, it's ti to send our Profound Sword Peak students to take over the War King Hall." Duanmu Ying's eyes glead brilliantly, and she said excitedly.
She had coveted the cultivation resources of the War King Hall for a long ti, but due to Ouyang Zhong, she was never able to achieve her wish.
In fact, so high-ranking mbers of the Ouyang Family had long been bought by her, they all agreed to let students from the other three factions enter the War King Hall, even persuading Ouyang Zhong to concede, but Ouyang Zhong never listened.
But now, Ouyang Zhong was a dead man and could no longer obstruct her plans.
"According to the rules of the War King Hall, as long as one becos the chief disciple of the War King Hall and their cultivation reaches the Gang Qi Realm, they are qualified to participate in the Hall Master's trial! If any of the students from our Profound Sword Peak manage to pass the Hall Master's trial, they can beco the new Hall Master of the War King Hall. At that ti, the cultivation resources of the War King Hall will be ours at Profound Sword Peak." Duanmu Ying said with a cold smile, her eyes filled with a deep sense of anticipation.
However, passing the Hall Master's trial is not an easy task; one must possess exceptionally strong physical power and body refining talent.
Among the students of their Profound Sword Peak, although there are so body refining geniuses, they have never cultivated the body refining techniques of the War King Hall.
Therefore, even if they do beco the chief disciple of the War King Hall, they should not be able to pass the Hall Master's trial in a short ti.
Of course, as long as they are given enough ti to cultivate the body refining techniques of the War King Hall, there is still a great hope they can pass the Hall Master's trial.
"The students of the War King Hall are all a bunch of trash and waste; over the years, not a single one has passed the Hall Master's trial. However, that brat Ye Chen must be guarded against; although he is a waste who can't even awaken his bloodline, his body refining talent is very high. Maybe he can really pass the Hall Master's trial!" Duanmu Ying's brows suddenly knitted together, her voice icy cold.
Even she had to admit that Ye Chen's body refining talent was indeed very high, otherwise, he would not have been able to cultivate the 'Ancient Golden Elephant Technique' to the Perfection Realm in just one month.
So, she absolutely could not let Ye Chen participate in the Hall Master's trial.
Otherwise, once Ye Chen beca the new Hall Master of the War King Hall, wouldn't all her years of planning turn into bubbles.
"That brat Ye Chen, although he has already beco a seed student of the War King Hall, he has not yet beco the chief disciple of the War King Hall. As long as he is not allowed to be the chief disciple, he will never be able to take part in the Hall Master's trial." Duanmu Ying said with a cold smile, her mouth curling with a thick sense of derision.
In recent years, because the War King Hall had gradually declined, it had beco much easier to beco the chief disciple of the War King Hall compared to before.
Even many candidate seed students of the War King Hall had this qualification.
And Ye Chen's strength was enough to kill even Duanmu Jie.
Once he stepped into the Gang Qi Realm, it was basically a certainty that he would beco the chief disciple of the War King Hall.
It was precisely for this reason that Ouyang Zhong was planning to let Ye Chen participate in the Hall Master's trial after he entered the Gang Qi Realm.
Unfortunately, he could no longer see this scene.
"There are countless seed students from our Profound Sword Peak who can crush that brat Ye Chen. As long as they beco the chief disciple of the War King Hall, Ye Chen will never have a chance to take this position! Haha! Ouyang Zhong, you really died at the right ti; if you hadn't died, that brat Ye Chen might really have had a chance to beco the new Hall Master of the War King Hall. As for now, it's absolutely impossible." Duanmu Ying couldn't help but sneer, her tone filled with thick mockery.
According to the rules of the War King Hall, only by defeating the previous chief disciple can one beco the new chief disciple.
So, Duanmu Ying only needed to select a student from their Profound Sword Peak who could crush Ye Chen and have him compete with Ye Chen for the position of chief disciple.
Then Ye Chen would never have a chance to beco the chief disciple of the War King Hall.
Moreover, besides their Profound Sword Peak, the Celestial Fla Peak and the Soul Palace would surely also send students to compete for the position of the chief disciple of the War King Hall.
Given Ye Chen's strength, wanting to sit in this position was simply a fool's dream.
Ti flew by.
In the blink of an eye, two days passed.
Rumble.
At this mont, in Ye Chen's cultivation chamber, a violent Gang Qi was raging, enveloping an area with a nine-zhang radius, causing even the ground to tremble continuously.
This Gang Qi was surging out from within Ye Chen's body.
After days of painstaking cultivation, he finally compressed and refined all the True Qi in his Sea of Qi into Gang Qi.
This ant that he had now stepped into the Gang Qi Realm and beco a Qi Dao Master.
If it had been in the past, Ye Chen would have been incredibly excited and happy.
But now, his face was devoid of any emotional fluctuations.
After all, the death of Elder Ouyang was too great a blow for him.
It was difficult for him to walk out of this gloom all of a sudden.
"My cultivation has reached the Gang Qi Realm, next I need to condense the other two Dragon Elephant Divine Patterns. I must go find Teacher Ouyang." Ye Chen thought to himself.
Condensing two Dragon Elephant Divine Patterns required the consumption of one million ordinary Spirit Stones.
And Ye Chen couldn't even bring out ten thousand ordinary Spirit Stones; only Ouyang Xue could help him.
"Uncle Wu, it's been three or four days since my father went into the Canglan Mountain Range, why isn't he back yet?" At this mont, in a grand hall of the main peak of the War King Hall, Ouyang Xue's brows were tightly knit, and she asked anxiously.
Beside her stood a tall, black-clad middle-aged man, the sa person who told Ouyang Zhong about the appearance of the Immortal Secret Realm in the depths of the Canglan Mountain Range.
His na was Ouyang Wu, one of the high-ranking mbers of the Ouyang Family, and his cultivation had reached the Celestial Spirit Realm.
All along, he had been a close confidant of Ouyang Zhong.
"Miss, perhaps the Grand Elder wants to spend more ti in the Canglan Mountain Range; don't worry, with the Grand Elder's strength, there are really few people in the Celestial Fla Dynasty who can threaten him." Ouyang Wu couldn't help but comfort Ouyang Xue.
"Miss, it's Ye Chen, he wants to see you." At this mont, soone reported to Ouyang Xue.
"Wonderful, let him in quickly." Ouyang Xue couldn't help but show a hint of joy.
