300: Go ahead and ask!

After saying all that, Qiu Yongling's remaining stamina was almost at its limit.

"Master, you rest well, leave the rest to us."

Bai Jun took out a thicker piece of clothing from his pocket and spread it on the ground, placing Qiu Yongling on it.

After Qiu Yongling fell asleep, Bai Jun then led Luo Shuo, who was dazed from anemia, towards Chen Heng.

From the very beginning, the screams and pleas for mercy from that direction had not stopped.

Anyone who didn't know would have thought they were slaughtering pigs in the cave.

"Please, please, just kill me!" Wu Feng's entire body had shriveled down to just a head, and his body was now propped up on the ground like a phone stand.

"Your mouth is really stubborn, you still won't speak."

Chen Heng also admired Wu Feng; all his Qi and blood had been cut off and forced into his brain. A normal person would have told the truth long ago due to such pain.

"You, you should ask!"

Wu Feng almost spat out a mouthful of old blood. Oh no, he didn't even have the ability to spit blood now.

"You've tortured me for so long and haven't asked! What do you want to know, just say it!"

"Didn't I ask?" Chen Heng was stunned for a moment, then he realized he had gotten a bit carried away and forgotten the main business.

"Ahem, sorry, I forgot about that."

Wu Feng was almost driven mad hearing this; so the guy in front of him was just a lunatic!

"How many people are currently in your Danqing Valley?"

"Sixteen thousand three hundred seventy-one!"

As soon as Chen Heng asked the question, Wu Feng eagerly answered him.

"The Thirty-Five Profound Sects combined only have that many people?" Chen Heng raised an eyebrow; he had a feeling Wu Feng wasn't telling the truth.

"I'm warning you, don't think that just because you're left with only a head, I can't do anything to you. I can make half your brain shrivel, do you believe me?"

Chen Heng gently placed his finger on top of Wu Feng's head, and Wu Feng immediately felt a chill shoot straight to his crown.

"It's true! Not everyone learned the Way of Reaching Heaven; some didn't believe, and some opposed it!"

"Those who opposed and didn't believe were either killed by us or fled."

"There really are only that many in Danqing Valley!"

Wu Feng wanted to struggle, but his phone-stand-like body made him completely unable to move.

"What about you? Did you learn that so-called Way of Reaching Heaven?" Chen Heng withdrew his hand, looking at Wu Feng with some curiosity.

Could it be that this Way of Reaching Heaven is so weak that it can't even defeat a noob like Bai Jun?

It felt even less impressive than the Wutong God.

"I, I actually don't have the talent to learn the Way of Reaching Heaven, so I didn't learn it..."

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Wu Feng's face. He had always boasted to his Disciples that he had learned the Way of Reaching Heaven.

There was no other way; most people in Danqing Valley had easily learned the Way of Reaching Heaven, but he just couldn't learn it no matter how hard he tried.

If it weren't for his desperate cultivation recently, he probably would have been exposed long ago.

"Tsk, little trash." Chen Heng curled his lip, no wonder this guy was so weak.

"Alright, you're useless now. I'll send you on your way."

With that, Chen Heng stomped and crushed his dog head.

Even at the moment of death, a hint of relief appeared on Wu Feng's face.

"Big Brother Chen, why did you kill him?" Bai Jun had just walked over and saw Chen Heng stomp Wu Feng's head, so he quickly ran over.

"This kid didn't even learn the Way of Reaching Heaven, he's completely worthless." Chen Heng shook his head, vigorously rubbing the brain matter stuck to the sole of his foot.

"Huh?" Bai Jun was completely dismayed to hear this; the guy he had struggled so hard to defeat didn't even know the Way of Reaching Heaven.

It was a bit humiliating.

"It's alright, at least now we know that not everyone is under the Danqing Valley's command; there are still some scattered on the periphery."

Chen Heng's news was quite good, and Bai Jun breathed a sigh of relief after hearing it.

It seemed like True Immortal Sect wasn't the only one being targeted, which was good.

It was just that True Immortal Sect didn't have anyone cultivating his Way of Reaching Heaven, which made Danqing Valley feel threatened.

That's why the Thirty-Five Profound Sects were gathered to besiege True Immortal Sect.

"Now, should we first search for the True Immortal Sect Disciples scattered outside, or go directly to their lair and kill them?"

Chen Heng turned to look at Bai Jun; after all, this was their sect's matter, he was just here to help.

"The Disciples who survived must be unharmed; those who were victims would have already been victims."

Bai Jun gritted his teeth and glanced at Qiu Yongling, who was sound asleep.

"Solve the culprits, and everything will fall into place. The scattered Disciples will return on their own once they hear the news."

Chen Heng nodded; Bai Jun's idea was very much to his liking.

Why drag it out? Kill the source, and everything will be fine.

"But Big Brother Chen, don't we need to gather more intelligence about that Way of Reaching Heaven?"

Bai Jun hesitated for a moment, but still asked out of caution.

"Intelligence? What intelligence?" Chen Heng was pondering how to capture all those more than ten thousand people in one go, and Bai Jun's question stumped him.

"Master just told me some things about the Valley Master of Danqing Valley and the Way of Reaching Heaven..."

Bai Jun told Chen Heng everything Qiu Yongling had just told him, without any concealment or embellishment.

"..." Chen Heng was somewhat silent; he had a feeling he had seen this so-called 'Way of Reaching Heaven' before.

What was it called?

"Why does it feel so much like a swarm of insects..."

The main brain is the Valley Master of Danqing Valley, and the rest are secondary infections.

"Forget it, I'll know when I see it." Chen Heng shook his head; he was used to being reckless and had already given up on analyzing enemy information.

Whatever it is, as long as it bleeds, he can kill it.

If he can't kill it once, he'll try a second time. He didn't believe there was anything in this world that couldn't die.

"What about your Master then, just leaving her here?" Chen Heng glanced at Qiu Yongling, who was deeply asleep from weakness.

This black phoenix essence blood was good in every way, except for the fact that it consumed too much stamina, which was a drawback.

It seemed it could only be used for treating injuries after a battle.

If it were used during a battle, recovering and then immediately falling asleep would lead to complete disaster.

"Most likely not. Wu Feng and the others won't be the first wave to hunt Master, so it's best to keep her with us."

Bai Jun shook his head. How could he leave Qiu Yongling alone here?

"Alright, it doesn't make a difference with one more person." Chen Heng didn't care; after all, he wasn't the one acting as a means of transport.

"Then let's wait until she wakes up. Things are already like this, and rushing won't help."

Chen Heng was straightforward, directly finding a clean spot and sitting down.

"Okay, then let's wait." Bai Jun also nodded, pulling Luo Shuo, who was in a state of daze from anemia, to sit beside him and wait for Qiu Yongling to awaken... Just as Chen Heng was busy with the True Immortal Sect's affairs, Great Liang was also restless.

Chen Heng had made no attempt to conceal his extermination of the Noble Families, and this matter naturally reached the ears of Helian Jinming, the Emperor of Daliang.

"Your Majesty, four Aristocratic Families have already been wiped out, and the methods were incredibly brutal."

A civil official knelt before Helian Jinming, trembling incessantly.

This matter was truly too terrifying; he couldn't even imagine how furious His Majesty would be.
