Chaotic Sword God chapter-3787-the-city-lords-thoughts

Elsewhere in the Immortal Rising City, in another expansive courtyard, a powerful formation had already been activated silently, enveloping the main hall.

The courtyard served as a temporary residence for the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment in the Immortal Rising City.

At this moment, several figures sat inside the main hall enveloped by the formation. All of them were figures of authority in the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment. The great elder that Jian Chen met earlier, Xia Zhilai, was among them.

Another old man sat beside Xia Zhilai. He seemed to be in his seventies, wearing a set of coarse clothes. His presence was perfectly erased, without any signs of it at all. As such, he seemed like an old farmer.

His name was Fang Ziguang, a Fifth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor and also one of the great elders of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment!

Apart from Xia Zhilai and Fang Ziguang who were Immortal Emperors, the rest were all Immortal Monarchs.

This time, the rest of the people that the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment had dispatched were only a few Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals.

However, Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals clearly did not possess the right to participate in this discussion.

“Since we’ve already located the Energy-devouring Furnace and the Heaven-locking Chains, our mission is complete. It’s time for us to return. We can only leave the rest for the ancestors to deal with,” said Xia Zhilai.

“But great elder, we still haven’t gotten to the bottom about the Void-perceiving Ancestor,” said an Immortal Monarch elder.

“It is no longer necessary to investigate the Void-perceiving Ancestor. He must have met a bad end already, or the Immortal Rising City would not have the courage to destroy the Void-perceiving sect. The Heaven-locking Chains would not have ended up in Yang Yutian’s hands either,” said Xia Zhilai.

“B-but the holy maiden of the Void-perceiving sect has already been married into our Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment, and she possesses a lofty status in our sect. Are we supposed to resolve the Void-perceiving sect’s grievances for them or not?” another Immortal Monarch elder asked in a troubled manner.

“The Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master are Second Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalts. It should be obvious just how powerful the enemy is since they could kill two Immortal Exalts at the same time in such a swift and clean manner. As a result, we better leave this matter for the ancestors to decide.” Xia Zhilai looked at the speaking elder and said sternly, “But in my opinion, there’s no need for our Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment to provoke such a powerful enemy over a holy maiden from the Void-perceiving sect.”

“Of course, that’s only my opinion. As for the choice that we end up making, that will still come down to the ancestors.”

Elder Fang Ziguang seated beside Xia Zhilai coughed gently and said, “Old Xia, you better tell us about this Yang Yutian instead. You said that our Energy-devouring Furnace and Heaven-locking Chains are both in this person’s possession. Don’t tell me he is the Immortal Exalt who killed the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master?”

Xia Zhilai recalled the conversation and said, “I wasn’t able to see through this Yang Yutian. He was clearly covering himself with some kind of secret technique or treasure, so he seemed like a regular person in my eyes. However, he said he was only a Sixth Heavenly Layer Immortal Emperor. I don’t think it was necessary for him to lie about that.”

“As a result, Yang Yutian can only be regarded as an errand boy. The mysterious expert who killed the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master stands behind him,” said Fang Ziguang.

“The Energy-devouring Furnace and the Heaven-locking Chains are both in Yang Yutian’s possession. That is apparent,” said Xia Zhilai.

Great elder Fang Ziguang nodded and said, “This is no longer a matter that we can handle. C’mon, let’s return to the sect and report this to the ancestors!”

They moved swiftly. As soon as they decided to return to the sect, they immediately began gathering their disciples. In merely ten minutes, the entire group of people from the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment had left the Immortal Rising City.

Jian Chen sat beside a pool in his courtyard. He held some fish food and sprinkled it into the pond casually to feed the fish in there.

Suddenly, he sensed something and looked in the direction where the people from the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment stayed. His lips curled slightly as he murmured, “They’re actually all leaving. Looks like it won’t be long until the Immortal Exalt ancestors of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment personally take action.”

“After all, given the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment’s foundations, they still can’t afford to lose two high quality god artifacts!”

“Jing Feng, you will supervise Mumu’s cultivation for a period of time. I’ll be gone for a few days.”

After some simple instructions, Jian Chen vanished from the courtyard.

“City lord, the people from the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment have already all left. From the direction that they’re leaving in, they should be returning to the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment.”

Vice city lord Qiu Wanqian stood below with his hands clasped in the city lord’s estate. He clearly seemed relieved.

“Have they finally left? Looks like it was an extremely wise decision for me to give the Energy-devouring Furnace to fellow Yang Yutian.” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu who sat on the city lord’s throne smiled. “Now, the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment should be concerned about how to retrieve the Energy-devouring Furnace and the Heaven-locking Chains. Why would they still have the energy to think about the Void-perceiving sect?”

“Fortunately, senior Yang Yutian happened to be in our Immortal Rising City during this time. Otherwise, our Immortal Rising City would truly struggle to survive this crisis.” Qiu Wanqian smiled. He felt extremely fortunate inside.

Suddenly, Qiu Wanqian thought of something. “Oh right. City lord, I have something else to report. I’ve already gotten to the bottom of the relationship between senior Yang Yutian and the Jing family of Falling Cloud City. A detailed report is in this jade slip. Please see for yourself.”

As he said that, Qiu Wanqian passed a jade slip over to Immortal Exalt Tan Yu.

To the Immortal Rising City, let alone the Jing family of Falling Cloud City, even the prominent Tiger Roar clan of the past was nothing. With the status of the vice city lords and the city lord, they usually never turned their attention towards Falling Cloud City. Even if the city was destroyed, it would not pique the interest of the Immortal Rising City.

But at this moment, when he received news regarding the Jing family of Falling Cloud City, the city lord immediately became solemn. He accepted the jade slip from Qiu Wanqian and read through it carefully.

A while later, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu sank into his thoughts. He sat back on his throne as he felt conflicted inside.

“City lord, should we provide the Jing family with some support and assistance or not?” Qiu Wanqian felt rather troubled as well. He had no idea on how to deal with this matter.

With the Immortal Rising City’s strength and status, it was effortless for them to assist an organisation with an Immortal Monarch. Even a single word from the Immortal Rising City could leave the Jing family with an untouchable status in Falling Cloud City with no one bold enough to provoke them.

Even if the Immortal Rising City simply tossed them some scraps, it would be enough for the Jing family to rise up.

After all, the influence of a peak organisation with an Immortal Exalt was evident.

However, the specific details of the matter made it very difficult to handle.

“Sigh, fellow Yang Yutian’s relationship with the Jing family doesn’t seem to be as we imagined. Even his disciple Jing Mumu seems to have left the Jing family. The deaths of her parents are closely connected to the Jing family as well. This… really is difficult to handle,” Immortal Exalt Tan Yu said painfully. He wanted to support the Jing family, but he was also afraid of mishandling the matter.

However, if he did not provide them with some care and the Jing family ended up being destroyed one day, he was also concerned that it would become a matter of regret for fellow Yang Yutian or even his disciple.

Jian Chen had helped the Immortal Rising City resolve a crisis of life and death. However, to Immortal Exalt Tan Yu, offering a spot from the Skyscraping Sword Scripture was nowhere near enough. As a result, Immortal Exalt Tan Yu truly wanted to do something for Jian Chen within his abilities. He wanted to pay him back for this tremendous favour.

Right when Immortal Exalt Tan Yu was feeling clueless, his expression suddenly changed as he looked to the entrance of the city lord’s estate. He smiled and said, “Fellow Yang Yutian is here. C’mon, receive him with me!”freёnovelkiss.com
