Asura Mad Emperor

Jiang Li's half physical body returned to the Upper Realm, precisely landing in the courtyard of the Jiang Family.

Jiang Yu, Holy Master Jin Ling, as well as powerhouses from families such as the Ji and Liu, had all gathered there, waiting for good news from Goddess Xue Yi and the others.

However, they had not expected that suddenly, half a person would fall from the sky, and it startled everyone.

Afterward, the few of them were able to make out the disfigured intruder.

"Jiang Li!"

The four of them were shocked and dismayed to see Jiang Li transformed into such a state.

"Jiang Li, how did you end up like this, and where are Xue Yi and Ji Yue and the others?" Jiang Yu stepped forward, used his Great Divine Power to stabilize the injuries, fed a Snow Soul Pill, and then asked with a furrowed brow.

Jiang Li had a narrow escape from death and was still shaken.

Although he had lost half his body, it was not fatal. The clan possessed Divine Pills capable of regenerating life and bones, and there was still hope for his half body to grow back.

After a long while, he came back to his senses and said with a chill of fear,

"Patriarch, they're dead, Xue Yi, Goddess Xue Yi, Liu Mo, Ji Yue, they're all dead!"

"Dead? How is that possible? Our Holy Land's Xue Yi took the Heaven Warding Pill. In the mere Lower Realm, she was an invincible presence. Even if a hundred Great Emperor powerhouses besieged her, they wouldn't be her match. How could she just perish like this!" Holy Master Jin Ling's Liu Mei eyebrows shot up.

"Reporting to the Holy Master, the junior speaks nothing but the truth. Immortal Xue Yi indeed took the Heaven Warding Pill and was not detected by the Heavenly Dao. However, that Qinchuan, I don't know what formation he set up, but it could actually ward off the attacks of Immortals of the Divine Being Realm. In the end, when the time of the Heaven Warding Pill was up, the Immortal couldn't react in time and was eradicated by the Heavenly Dao.

Afterward, that Qinchuan made his move to kill the three of us. He's a monster, with a single move he killed both Liu Mo and Ji Yue. If I hadn't run fast, I'm afraid I too would have..."

He hadn't finished speaking when Holy Master Jin Ling and Ji Jian's storage spaces suddenly stirred, and messages came from the other end of the Sound Transmission Stones.

The next moment, both people received the news from the Sound Transmission Stones and exchanged a look of mutual recognition.

"Xue Yi is dead!"

"Ji Yue is dead!"

It was only then that the two of them got the message from their family's sacred lands that the soul tablets of Xue Yi and Ji Yue had shattered.

"They're truly dead?!" Although Liu You had not yet received the message, the fact that Xue Yi and Ji Yue had perished was already confirmed.

"The formation that can stop a Divine Being Realm, what formation is that? Tell it to me in detail!" Liu You's gaze shone with divine light as she demanded coldly.

Thereupon, Jiang Li recounted the entire situation, except he concealed the part where he used Liu Mo and others to escape and save himself.

"The Green Lotus Array Plate?"

Jiang Yu and Ji Jian exchanged a look, their eyes flickering with an unusual gleam.

Both great families possessed profound backgrounds and immediately understood that this was the legendary Green Lotus Array Plate!

"What should we do now? Are we truly without means to deal with this youngster?" Liu You and Holy Master Jin Ling had not caught on to the importance of the array plate and were still contemplating how to deal with Qinchuan.

"This child is going against the heavens. This matter has exceeded what my Heavenly South Great Domain's Jiang Family can handle alone. I must report this to the main house," Jiang Yu said at this moment.

Upon guessing the existence of the Green Lotus Array Plate, he knew they no longer had any hope of killing Qinchuan in the Lower Realm.

The Green Lotus Array Plate, even in the Upper Realm, is a defiance of the heavens. In the Lower Realm, it means invincibility.

"I must also report this to the main house!" Ji Jian spoke in a deep voice as well.

"You two…" Liu You and Holy Master Jin Ling frowned simultaneously.

Initially, all four families were privy to the secrets of the battle at the island.

Because of the Spiritual Pearl in Qinchuan's possession, the four families suppressed this news, wanting to vie for the Spiritual Pearl through their own means.

However, now that things were halfway through, the Jiang Family and the Ji Family suddenly reported it, which would undoubtedly expose the news.

This was something that both the Liu Family and the Jin Ling Sanctuary could not accept.

The patriarchs of the Jiang and Ji families were beings of extraordinary status; if they were to get involved, the Liu Family and the Jin Ling Sanctuary, regardless of their efforts, would not be able to compete with them for the Spiritual Pearl.

"No way, if you report to the head family, I wouldn't mind letting the news of young Qinchuan holding two Spiritual Pearls get out," said Liu You, his body emitting a chill that swept around.

"If you involve the head families, you are undoubtedly disqualifying my Jin Ling Sanctuary and the Liu Family from the contention for the Spiritual Pearls. Then, we will certainly not just sit by and await death," the Holy Master of the Jin Ling Sanctuary said indifferently.

"You..."

Jiang Yu and Ji Jian understood what both parties meant—the Liu Family and the Jin Ling Sanctuary were preparing to take this news and seek the support of a major sect.

In the end, the four left displeased, with none of them coming up with an effective plan against Qinchuan.

That night, Jiang Yu still used a Sound Transmission Stone to contact the head family of the Jiang Family far away in the central Divine Realm.

That night, not only the Jiang Family but also a strong individual from both the Jin Ling Sanctuary and the Liu Family flew out, using the Great Formation to head for the far-off central domain of the Divine Realm.

The Jin Ling Sanctuary and the Liu Family both understood that the alliance between the four families had already disbanded at this point.

Backed by their head families, the Jiang and Ji families would soon suppress and silence the other two if they didn't find a powerful patron themselves.

...

Qinchuan was unaware that he had inadvertently disbanded an alliance within the Heavenly South Great Domain, nor did he know that even stronger forces would soon descend upon this world.

After subduing Liu Mo, Qinchuan looked towards the vast expanses of the world and found that Mo Wentian had already taken advantage of the chaos to escape, and his whereabouts were unknown.

This made him quite regretful; he had wanted to capture him and force some secrets about the Immortal Burial out of him, but still, Mo Wentian had managed to slip away.

At the Qin Residence, in a garden.

Two people sat opposite each other in the pavilion, both Bai Ruoxi's two Protectors and Ye Xuanji staying far away from this place.

Dharma Patterns flowed around, forming a barrier.

"I wonder, should I address Immortal Lady Bai as Ruo Xi or Bai Ling?" Qinchuan said while controlling a small cauldron in front of him, boiling water within.

"The name Bai Ling was given by my master. When moving around in the Lower Realm, I named myself Ruo Xi. Since we are in the Divine Wilderness Continent, I am just Ruo Xi," Bai Ruoxi answered.

"I see." Qinchuan brewed the tea with the Alchemy Fire and continued, "I've heard the Immortal Lady mention coming from the Upper Realm. May I know which great master's lineage you hail from?"

"My master is a hermit, not from any renowned master's lineage. His name is Mo Wu, but I presume Young Master Qin has not heard of him," Bai Ruoxi replied with a smile.

"Mo Wu?" Qinchuan searched his memory and confirmed he had never heard the name before.

Yet, hearing the surname Mo, he thought of Mo Wentian.

Immediately, he continued with a smile, "It seems Immortal Lady Bai and Mo Wentian are old acquaintances?"

"Is Young Master Qin perhaps wishing to inquire about the relationship between Brother Mo and my master?" Bai Ruoxi smiled gently.

"I had indeed forgotten; Immortal Lady Bai is favored by the Heavenly Dao, with the ability to peer into hearts and discern all things. Nothing can be hidden from you," Qinchuan said, smiling while secretly pondering.

"Brother Mo, this Bai Ruoxi seems to have an even closer relationship with Mo Wentian than I imagined."
