20: Are you the devil?

Chu Feng glanced at the System's sudden prompt and his heart stirred, "Oh? How did he suddenly blacken for no reason? Didn't he happily run back to Xiao Zhu Realm?"

He immediately expanded his thoughts, and his Great Emperor Divine Thought enveloped Xiao Zhu Realm.

"So it was the Elders of Chongxuan Pavilion who did it, and Gu Yan found out."

Chu Feng didn't really care about Gu Yan's Breakthrough to Hua Long Great Perfection, killing the experts who besieged him, and leaving.

After all, he was the Heavenly Mandate Protagonist; it would be strange if he couldn't even do that much.

As for Gu Yan's white hair, blood-red robes, and killing to Breakthrough his Realm.

Chu Feng didn't find it too strange.

From his perspective as a Great Emperor, a Breakthrough in Realm during battle wasn't necessarily a good thing; his Foundation wasn't even solid yet.

Understanding the cause and effect, Chu Feng deeply sympathized with Gu Yan's plight: "Tsk, he finally got home and encountered something like this, how frustrating."

He gently tapped his fingers on the back of the chair with his other hand, musing, "Actually, it's also a good thing. With the Gu Family gone, he probably won't be as sad when he sees his good brother at Qingyun Sword Sect next."

"Speaking of which, I guess I've helped him temper his Heart-Nature."

"I really am a good person."

System: ...

Are you a devil?

Chu Feng was certainly not a devil; he was merely a pitiful villain humbly surviving under the threat of the Heavenly Mandate Protagonist.

Although he was a villain, he still had a bottom line.

Ultimately, it was those Elders of Chongxuan Pavilion who acted too carelessly. How could they act before me?

Chu Feng looked at the heavenly fate treasure chest that had appeared in his God Ocean.

It wasn't in vain that he painstakingly collected them; now he had seven, and he would soon be able to do a ten-draw again.

System: ...

Shameless!

Have you ever collected them, you bastard?

"Husband, the Demon Subduing Magic Array is starting to fluctuate again. I need to go reinforce the Seal."

A pair of slender, jade-like hands gently massaged Chu Feng's leg where he lay. Chu Feng glanced over to see Nangong Qin, dressed in a black palace gown, her dark hair secured by a translucent Phoenix hairpin. Her fair, jade-like legs were crossed as she sat diagonally on the couch, appearing like an elegant and noble beautiful woman.

She spoke softly to Chu Feng, her Phoenix eyes filled with worry and a hint of anxiety.

Chu Feng nodded, smiled faintly, and waved his hand, saying, "Go."

Seeing Nangong Qin's hurried departing back, he gently shook his head, "She's a smart woman, but she carries far too many burdens."

Deep within Chongxuan Pavilion, there was a very ingenious magic array.

He had already discovered it when he first arrived at Chongxuan Pavilion.

In fact, it wasn't just Chongxuan Pavilion; there were nearly thirty such ingenious magic arrays throughout the Xuan Realm.

Whether things were Sealed beneath the magic arrays, he gradually learned the origin of these magic arrays after settling into Chongxuan Pavilion recently.

The Demon Subduing Magic Array.

In a Great World like the Xuan Realm, there existed numerous Two Realms Passages.

Some passages led to Lower Realms like Xiao Zhu Realm, but more wild passages led to unknown and dangerous places.

And beneath every Demon Subduing Magic Array was an extremely dangerous Two Realms Passage.

Within such dangerous and stable passages, terrifying foreign devils often invaded. According to some ancient records in the Xuan Realm, during the most rampant periods, even Saint-level foreign devils invaded.

Chongxuan Pavilion's Demon Subduing Magic Array was being severely impacted by foreign devils and was at risk of shattering.

The reason Nangong Qin agreed to him so readily, besides the exorbitant betrothal gifts, was largely because she wanted to enlist outside help to suppress the Demon Subduing Magic Array for Chongxuan Pavilion.

Otherwise, if the Demon Subduing Magic Array truly shattered, Chongxuan Pavilion would have no choice but to sacrifice Nangong Qin, using her special Physique to reinforce the Demon Subduing Magic Array.

Of course, Nangong Qin and the entire Chongxuan Pavilion did not deliberately conceal this little secret.

The news of the Xuan Realm's Demon Subduing Magic Array was common knowledge among all King-level cultivators in the entire Xuan Realm, let alone Saints.

And Chu Feng cared even less; even if a Saint-level foreign devil burst out of the Demon Subduing Magic Array, it posed no threat to him.

After all... he was never a Saint.

...

Xiao Zhu Realm.

After leaving Wu City, Gu Yan hurried towards Qingyun Sword Sect.

Along the way, he also passed through Tianyun City.

In the Bai Family of Tianyun City, he had a childhood sweetheart, Bai Xin'er.

But what pained Gu Yan deeply was that although the Bai Family didn't suffer the same tragic fate as the Gu Family, Bai Xin'er had also mysteriously disappeared recently.

This gave him reason to suspect that this was yet again targeting him!

"I will go on a killing spree and slaughter the entire Qingyun Sword Sect."

Gu Yan's white hair fluttered in the wind, his eyes gleaming with sharpness, and his killing intent soared.

Qingyun Sword Sect, as one of the strongest forces in Xiao Zhu Realm, was once an unapproachable entity in Gu Yan's eyes.

But now, returning from the Xuan Realm, Gu Yan's horizons were vastly different from before.

The strongest cultivators in the entire Xiao Zhu Realm were merely ordinary Immortal Terraces.

Qingyun Sword Sect, at most, had three to five Immortal Terraces, which could only be considered a trashy minor force in the Xuan Realm.

With his current Hua Long Great Perfection strength, coupled with his Cultivation of a Saint Rank Cultivation Technique, it was easy for him to fight above his Realm, and completely wiping out Qingyun Sword Sect was no problem at all.

If Chu Feng was not a Saint Incarnation, then he would completely settle past grudges and directly kill him.

If he truly was a Saint Incarnation, then washing Qingyun Sword Sect in blood would at least be a victory.

He manipulated the Void Realm power, silently infiltrating Qingyun Sword Sect. In less than half an hour, he had traversed the entire Qingyun Sword Sect.

During this time, he saw many familiar figures, but after sweeping through repeatedly, he did not find Chu Feng's presence!

Gu Yan trembled all over!

This news was the worst for him!

Never mind, I'll kill first as a sign of respect!

Killing intent erupted from his eyes.

A light green longsword appeared in his hand!

Heaven Rank!

This was the best treasure he could get in a short amount of time!

Just as Gu Yan was about to act, he suddenly looked in one direction, his pupils constricting, his gaze frozen.

He saw an unremarkable mountain peak, but on this mountain peak stood an ancient, simple Sword Tablet.

This was a landmark treasure of Qingyun Sword Sect, formed from an ancient sword left behind by the founding Ancestral Master Qingyun.

When he was weak, he had an Epiphany here from the Sword Intent remaining on it, and with this Sword Intent, he wreaked havoc, even repeatedly defeating Chu Feng.

Now, seeing that Sword Tablet again, Gu Yan's face turned pale, and his lips trembled uncontrollably.

Because on that Sword Tablet, hung a tattered corpse.

Although the body was broken, Gu Yan recognized it at a glance!

Ji Wenfeng!

How could Ji Wenfeng, his good brother who helped him escape the Xuan Realm, be hung as a corpse on Qingyun Sword Sect's Sword Tablet?!
