A few hours later.
Shangguan Xu, accompanied by the two Golden Core Guardians Li Hu and Zhang Wen, swiftly left Immortal Mist City in their flying boat, covering a distance of thousands of miles. They did not put their guard down until the sight of the Immortal Mist City was completely obscured from their view.
“Damn that Immortal Mist City.”
“I won’t forget what happened this time.”
Shangguan Xu gritted his teeth, seething with resentment.
Never in his life had he been so humiliated or suffered such a huge loss.
He had narrowly escaped death, falling a hair’s breadth short of perishing in enemy hands.
Thanks to the fact that his enemies feared his father, Shangguan Qing, he had survived. Otherwise, there was no doubt he would have met his end.
Right now, he wished he could rip those bastards apart.
“Young Master, that woman should be the Sect Master of the Immortal Mist
Sect, Leng Yuexi.”
“That woman from the talisman store is also a cultivator from the Immortal
Mist Sect.”
“The man might be Leng Yuexi’s dao companion.
“Their turf is within the Tri-Star Island Group. They rely on the Wuji Alliance for their livelihood, so naturally, they wouldn’t dare to attempt your life.”
Guardian Zhang Wen said in a solemn voice.
At this moment, recalling the information related to the Immortal Mist Sect, he immediately realized that the female Golden Core cultivator they had encountered was none other than Sect Master Leng Yuexi.
“Young Master, this defeat is too humiliating.”
“That bunch of strangers who have intruded into the Wuji Alliance’s territory, those damned mutts dare to treat us like this!”
“If we don’t show them who we are, we’ll inevitably become the laughingstock
of the Wuji Alliance.”
Guardian Li Hu clenched his fist, his heart full of rage.
After remembering the fear of facing death, he wished he could annihilate all
the cultivators of the Immortal Mist Sect.
He, a distinguished Golden Core Master, had been begging for mercy like a dog.
It was an unforgivable humiliation.
No matter what, he had to take his revenge. If he failed to do so, he couldn’t bear the shame.
“Do you really need to say it? When has anyone who offended me, Shangguan
Xu, ever had it easy?”
“However, we need to plan wisely for this matter.
“Those bastards are not easy targets. They are Golden Core Masters and not
easy to kill.”
Shangguan Xu’s face was stern.
He didn’t want to bother his father, Shangguan Qing, with this matter. Besides, his father wouldn’t help him unless his enemies had actually killed him.
After all, his father had many children.
If everyone came running to him for every little problem, he would surely be overwhelmed.
“Young Master, have you forgotten something?”
“The reason we headed to Immortal Mist City was because of the bloody old monster.”
“That scoundrel has been eyeing the city, planning to gather his followers and loot it.”
“Immortal Mist City is doomed.”
Guardian Zhang Wen’s eyes glowed coldly.
The reason for their trip to Immortal Mist City was not unfounded, it was based on news from the Bloody Old Monster.
The Bloody Old Monster, a notorious bandit in this oceanic region, was on the Wuji Alliance’s wanted list.
However, he was a Golden Core Completion cultivator and often eluded the Wuji Alliance with his formidable combat strength.
More importantly, the Bloody Old Monster had good relations with some higher-ups of the Wuji Alliance. He was a contract killer for these powers, doing their dirty work.
This man often targeted weak forces, brutally annihilating them.
After receiving this news, they found out that Immortal Mist City had been targeted by the Bloody Old Monster. Knowing how wealthy the city was, they wanted a piece of the action.
Who could have imagined that shortly after entering the Immortal Mist City, they would be beaten up?
They had nearly died.
“So, you’re saying Immortal Mist City is indeed finished.
“The Bloody Old Monster never fights unless he’s sure of his victory.”
“I heard he has reached Golden Core Completion and started attempting
Nascent Soul.”
“During this time, he has committed frequent crimes and many forces have fallen under his hands.”
“It’s not hard to imagine the fate of the forces targeted by the Bloody Old Monster.”
“We can use this opportunity to follow the Bloody Old Monster and strike a big blow to Immortal Mist City.”
Shangguan Xu’s eyes glowed with a frigid light, and he was very excited. He planned on gathering some of his friends as soon as he returned and teaming up with the Bloody Old Monster to go after Immortal Mist City.
This time, he intended to leave no trace of those bastards from Immortal Mist City.
And those female cultivators.
He picked up also, to let them understand how formidable he was.
That man too. He would capture him, subject him to various forms of torture, and make him wish for death but unable to die.
Rumble—
Just as Shangguan Xu, Zhang Wen, and Li Hu were consumed by their vengeful fantasies, the demon seeds lurking within their bodies suddenly erupted, a dark fog enveloping them.
What?!
Shangguan Xu and the others were taken aback, baffled by what had happened. They felt a surge of intense pain coming from deep within their bodies, as if they were being bitten by countless ants.
The intense pain, however, didn’t last long.
Only a second later, the three of them descended into an abyss of darkness. Their souls were devoured by the Heart Demons, leaving their bodies as an empty shell with hollow, dark eyes.
It seemed their bodies had been completely seized by the demons and turned into puppets.
Meanwhile, Zhou Sui, who had returned to Immortal Mist Peak of Immortal Mist Sect, sensed the abnormality with the demon seeds immediately. This was an impressive feature of the demon seed – regardless of distance, it could easily sense the slightest anomaly..
