Chu Lang, Harold Huang, and Jack Chen stood frozen in place, their mouths slightly agape.
These Inspectors were dead just like that.
The methods of Senior Cyan Cloth were simply unheard of and unseen.
When the first four Inspectors were killed with a single palm strike, they could barely accept it. But when the last eighth-grade Golden Immortal suddenly exploded, it caught them completely off guard.
Even a legendary Great Principal Golden Immortal couldn’t possibly achieve what Senior Cyan Cloth did, right?
“Th-thank you, Senior, for your intervention!”
Quickly, the three of them, led by Chu Lang, bowed in gratitude.
Seeing this, Ambrose Lu waved his sleeve, lifting the hundreds of people before him, and said softly, “No need to thank me. The matter with Tianheng Grand Sect started because of me, and it has implicated you all.”
“We wouldn’t dare! Senior, you overestimate us. How could we talk about being implicated or not?”
Chu Lang hurriedly waved his hand.
“Indeed, Senior, you overestimate us!” Harold Huang and Jack Chen also bowed in agreement.
Although this matter had nothing to do with them, the fact that this Senior dared to confront the Inspection Hall and save them from wrongful blame moved them. Otherwise, they would have been doomed.
This Senior had destroyed Tianheng Grand Sect and could have stayed out of it. But now, he was truly going to be targeted by the Inspection Hall for their sake. What courage!
Ambrose nodded slightly, casting a casual glance at Chu Xiruo and Nathan Zhang in the crowd.
That glance made the two of them feel as if they had been struck by lightning. They clenched their teeth and lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.
Seeing Ambrose remain silent, Chu Lang’s heart raced. He mustered his courage and invited, “S-senior, would you like to visit the Chu Immortal Clan? Your presence would bring great honor to our clan!”
Harold Huang and Jack Chen frowned, shooting an annoyed glance at the flushed Chu Lang. Damn it, he acted faster than us!
Ambrose nodded slightly, “Alright.”
Old Turtle’s mouth twitched. He understood Ambrose’s intention. With five bronze-medal Inspectors dead in the Langtian Domain, the Inspection Hall would surely send more people.
When that time comes, these three immortal clans would still be targeted.
If Ambrose wasn’t there, their situation would be dire.
“Wonderful, wonderful!” Chu Lang’s body trembled with joy. He quickly made a gesture of invitation, “Senior, please follow me!”
As he spoke, a luxurious, shimmering flying boat appeared in mid-air.
If it were just them traveling, they would fly directly. But with a senior like this, they naturally had to use the most comfortable mode of travel.
Ambrose took a step and appeared on the flying boat. Old Turtle followed suit.
“Chu Immortal Clan, let’s go!”
Chu Lang called out.
Moments later, the Chu family’s flying boat turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the sky under the awe-filled gazes of everyone.
“Damn it, that Chu Lang, sometimes his brain works quite fast!”
Harold Huang looked up and grumbled.
Jack Chen chuckled, knowing that Harold was referring to Chu Lang’s quick invitation to Senior Cyan Cloth. He then pursed his lips and said, “This is already the best outcome. It doesn’t matter which of our three clans the Senior visits, as long as he doesn’t leave us altogether…”
Harold Huang looked puzzled and turned to Jack Chen. As a clan leader himself, he quickly understood the key point!
His expression immediately turned serious.
“Are you saying… the Inspection Hall will come again?”
Jack Chen’s eyes grew solemn as he replied, “Five Inspectors are dead. It would be strange if they didn’t come.”
Harold Huang took a deep breath and said seriously, “We need to go back and prepare generous gifts to send to the Senior!”
Although this matter started because of the Senior, and they were the implicated party, in the cruel Immortal Realm, facing the terrifying Inspection Hall, they wouldn’t dare say anything if the Senior left them.
Jack Chen didn’t hesitate and nodded, “Alright!”
Following that, the Huang and Chen families also left one after another, leaving the square filled with people still in a daze.
But soon, the square erupted with countless discussions!
Excitement, fear, admiration, shock, and even dissent were all present!
“My god! Who exactly is that Senior Cyan Cloth? I didn’t even see him do anything, and five Golden Immortal-level bronze-medal Inspectors were wiped out just like that!”
“The leading Inspector was an eighth-grade Golden Immortal, comparable to the former Sect Master of Tianheng Grand Sect. It’s unbelievable… Really, I was stunned just now, didn’t even dare to breathe.”
“But with the Inspection Hall’s pursuit, it will be difficult for that Senior to withstand it. At least, we haven’t heard of anyone provoking the Inspection Hall and coming out unscathed, not even a Great Principal Golden Immortal.”
“Sigh, that Senior is probably a Great Principal Golden Immortal, and not an ordinary one at that, at least fourth-grade or higher.”
“Who knows? We haven’t seen many Great Principal Golden Immortals, so how would we know their methods?”
“Five Inspectors died in our Langtian Domain. The Inspection Hall will definitely come again. Let’s wait and see.”
“……”
Amidst various discussions, countless cultivators gradually left the square, some with eyes gleaming with unreadable emotions.
They clearly saw that the man in cyan had gone to the Chu Immortal Clan…
“Who would have thought that the master of that old man was so terrifyingly powerful…”
In the square, a skinny man stood in the wind, utterly bewildered.
………
Whirlwind Immortal Continent, southeastern region, a desolate wilderness.
In the midst of the heavens and earth stood a majestic palace, suspended in mid-air, with clouds and mist merely serving as its decoration.
“Ling, Ling’er!!”
A middle-aged man, who was meditating, suddenly clutched his heart and opened his eyes, his expression twisted with rage!
Taking a deep breath, he shouted,
“Someone come!!”
Soon, a bronze-medal Inspector appeared before the middle-aged man, kneeling on one knee, respectfully saying, “At your service!”
Zhao Tianyuan stared at the bronze-medal Inspector and asked coldly, “Where did Zhao Ling go?”
The bronze-medal Inspector shuddered and quickly replied, “The young lady went to the remote Langtian Domain!”
“Lang…tian…Domain! Such an obscure little domain!” Zhao Tianyuan’s voice seemed to squeeze out from between his teeth, filled with killing intent!
Seeing Zhao Tianyuan’s demeanor, the bronze-medal Inspector mustered the courage to ask, but before he could, another Inspector arrived in a hurry, shouting anxiously from outside the door,
“Lord Tianyuan! Miss Zhao Ling’s life token has shattered!”
Instantly, the Inspector inside the door fell silent. He understood why Zhao Tianyuan was so furious and lowered his head, even holding his breath, fearing he might provoke Zhao Tianyuan’s wrath.
However, he couldn’t deny that he felt a bit happy inside.
That Zhao Ling, always flaunting her status, exploiting the bronze-medal Inspectors and acting high and mighty. Many Inspectors had long been fed up with her! Good riddance!
Zhao Tianyuan slowly stood up, the silver token at his waist gleaming.
Suppressing his anger, he looked towards the direction of Langtian Domain and said coldly, “You will accompany me to Langtian Domain. If we can’t find the culprit who killed Ling’er, I will slaughter everyone in Langtian Domain to avenge her.”
The pupils of the two Inspectors inside and outside the door contracted. One of them asked, “Lord Tianyuan, should we report this to the Sub-Hall Master…”
Zhao Tianyuan glared at him and said in a low voice,
“Report to my father? He is currently handling important matters elsewhere. Do you want me to tell him that his granddaughter is dead at this time? Besides, by the time he returns, I will have already avenged Ling’er!”
“Forgive my slip of the tongue!” The Inspector said in terror.
He didn’t want to say that either, but Zhao Tianyuan’s threat to slaughter everyone in Langtian Domain was too frightening… If it involved mortals, it would violate the Immortal Code…
For someone like Zhao Ling, it wasn’t worth it…
Of course, he didn’t dare to voice these thoughts.
There was also another thing he couldn’t say. Zhao Ling was personally sent by the Sub-Hall Master…
“Hmph! Follow me! Let’s first go to Langtian Domain and find Ling’er’s body!”
With that, Zhao Tianyuan disappeared.
