299: Isn't she the sect leader's wife?

"?" Chen Heng was utterly bewildered. You two are being sentimental; how did it involve me?

"That's enough, don't be so Master-Disciple affectionate. Let's get to the main point."

"How do we deal with this guy?"

Chen Heng said, pointing at Wu Feng, who was like a lump of charcoal.

"But I don't know how to interrogate either..." Bai Jun scratched his head. The methods he used on Zhu Hongying wouldn't work on someone from the Thirty-Five Profound Sect.

"That's easy. We have a ready-made one right here." Chen Heng pulled Luo Shuo, who was lost in thought, over.

"Don't you agree?" Chen Heng raised his chin towards Qiu Yongling.

"Indeed, that feeling just now was truly unbearable..." Although Qiu Yongling was very weak, she could still speak.

Recalling the sensation from earlier, Qiu Yongling felt that dying would have been quite comfortable.

If her body hadn't recovered so well now, Qiu Yongling would have thought Chen Heng was here to finish her off.

"Good point!" Bai Jun nodded vigorously and dragged the charcoal-like Wu Feng over.

"Sigh..." Luo Shuo sighed and cut his own wrist.

He felt like finding some place to eat blood pudding; he was becoming anemic from all this bloodletting.

"Ah ah ah!!!"

As soon as the flames ignited, the unconscious Wu Feng woke up.

He kept rolling on the ground, trying to extinguish the flames on his body.

But the Black Phoenix Fire was not so easily extinguished; this was just a futile effort.

That drop of black phoenix essence blood wasn't much, burning for less than thirty seconds.

The moment the Black Phoenix Fire extinguished, Chen Heng squatted in front of Wu Feng and patted his face.

"Tell me, where did you take all the Disciples of the True Immortal Sect?"

"Heh heh, do you think I'll tell you?" Wu Feng showed a sinister smile on his face, glaring fiercely at Chen Heng.

"Oh, I'll be damned, you're quite arrogant, kid!"

Chen Heng grabbed Wu Feng's neck, looked at his body, and then lightly poked him at the collarbone.

In the blink of an eye, Wu Feng's right half of his body began to rapidly wither, eventually turning into a half-withered branch.

"Ah! Ah! What kind of demonic method is this!?" Wu Feng was almost scared out of his wits. What kind of thing was it for a perfectly fine person to suddenly become paralyzed on one side?

"You call me demonic, but what you people do is far more sinister than me."

Chen Heng grinned. He felt he could try his ability to see Meridians on Wu Feng.

Just now, Chen Heng had severed the Qi and blood Meridians on Wu Feng's right half of his body, causing his body to wither due to the loss of Qi and blood.

"Remember, I have many ways to play; it just depends on whether you can endure it."

The burning pain of the black phoenix essence blood probably wouldn't pry open his mouth. It was better for him to personally take the stage.

Hmm, it definitely wasn't because he found a suitable test subject and was happy.

Really!

As Chen Heng carried the howling Wu Feng to the side, Qiu Yongling waved at Bai Jun.

"What's wrong, Master?" Bai Jun thought Qiu Yongling was uncomfortable and quickly leaned down to ask.

"That Chen Heng... has his strength improved again?" Qiu Yongling squinted, realizing that she could no longer discern Chen Heng's origins at all.

Although she couldn't see clearly before, she could at least make out the outline of a 'person,' but now she couldn't even see a human outline.

In Qiu Yongling's eyes, Chen Heng seemed to have turned into something shapeless... something she herself couldn't quite describe.

"Ah, Big Brother Chen was promoted to the Martial Extreme Realm a few days ago." Bai Jun breathed a sigh of relief and told Qiu Yongling about Chen Heng's promotion.

"Martial Extreme Realm?" Qiu Yongling was stunned. She had never heard of this Realm before.

"Well, Big Brother Chen said that the Celestial Being Realm for martial artists simply doesn't exist; it's all imagined."

"The Realm after breaking through the Xiantian Grandmaster, its true name is Martial Extreme."

"No wonder, no wonder..." Qiu Yongling nodded repeatedly, her gaze towards Chen Heng turning to reverence.

This was the discovery of a completely new Realm!

In the past, this would have been a Major Achievement sufficient to establish a sect.

No! Even now, it's enough to establish a sect and be called an 'Old Ancestor.'

"I remember he's sixteen this year, isn't he...?" The more Qiu Yongling thought about it, the more alarmed she became. A sixteen-year-old Old Ancestor who founded a sect.

"No, he'll be seventeen after the New Year." Bai Jun knew Chen Heng's age, but he still felt surprised saying it out loud.

"Juner, you truly possess great Luck." Qiu Yongling became even more certain that her decision to let Bai Jun stay by Chen Heng's side was the correct one.

Presumably, Chen Heng himself was someone with monstrous Luck, and Bai Jun staying by his side could only bring benefits, not harm.

For example, this time, if Bai Jun hadn't been with Chen Heng, Liu Qi and the others would have been ninety-nine percent dead!

Not just Liu Qi, she herself would absolutely have been fed to those vicious beasts as dog food.

"Master, what exactly happened to Danqing Valley? Why are the Thirty-Five Profound Sects targeting us together?"

Bai Jun still couldn't understand.

Even if they opposed that Way of Reaching Heaven, they shouldn't be the only ones. Why were they the only ones so miserable?

"Is the True Sword Sect also among them?"

"That shouldn't be. Isn't their Sect Leader our Sect Leader's wife?"

"Where did you hear that?" Hearing Bai Jun's words, Qiu Yongling's eyes widened as she looked at him.

"Oh, I saw them kissing when we hadn't moved yet..." Bai Jun blurted it out without thinking.

Realizing what he said, Bai Jun quickly covered his mouth.

"The True Sword Sect didn't make a move. I'm not clear about the specific situation."

Qiu Yongling shook her head.

"I only know that the year we moved from Wuwu Mountain, the Valley Master of Danqing Valley seemed to have explored a ruin within the Chengtian Empire."

"Yes, it's similar in nature to the Hundred Corpse Tomb in Great Liang. Outside, it's rumored that there's the existence of the 'True Dao' inside."

"After that, the Valley Master of Danqing Valley became very abnormal."

"His Realm basically changed day by day. Until this incident, he could even create things out of thin air."

"So many Sect Leaders of the Thirty-Five Profound Sects asked him for that Way of Reaching Heaven."

"The Valley Master of Danqing Valley was quite generous, directly displaying the Way of Reaching Heaven and saying that anyone could learn it."

"But after our Sect Leader saw the state of the Valley Master of Danqing Valley, he strictly forbade anyone in the sect from learning that thing."

"I don't know how to explain it, but they seem to have been slowly assimilated by something. Their words and actions give the feeling of being the same person."

"You'll know when you see it: the same clothing, the same words and actions, the same demeanor."

"And they all seem to be under the control of the Valley Master of Danqing Valley..."

"Although it sounds a bit embarrassing to say, it's truly terrifying."
