926: Such evil people are not allowed to exist in this world!

“How is this possible?!”

After checking Jiu Hua True Lord’s message, Vast Treasure True Lord’s expression changed drastically, and he instinctively exclaimed.

Looking closely, one could even see his body trembling slightly.

“What happened?”

Cassidy, who was about to leave, frowned and asked when she saw this.

“Wang Chen leveled the entire Four Symbols Holy Land Branch, and Hua Teng Great True Lord’s Divided Soul was defeated by him in a head-on battle, finally dying when his head was crushed.”

Vast Treasure True Lord said blankly, his tone filled with shock.

“What? Your Excellency Wanbao, that joke isn’t funny at all!”

Cassidy exclaimed upon hearing this, then stared at Vast Treasure True Lord with a chilling gaze.

For a Divided Soul of a dignified Late Stage Great True Lord of the Ninth Rank to be killed in a head-on battle by a True Lord who couldn’t even unleash his Dark World, this sounded like a complete fantasy to Cassidy.

Even storybooks wouldn’t dare to make up something so outrageous!

Cassidy strongly suspected that Vast Treasure True Lord was deceiving her, but seeing his shocked expression, it didn’t seem like it.

“This is true. Jiu Hua True Lord of Xuantian Holy Land, stationed in Wanshou City, witnessed it personally. Moreover, this news will spread soon; it cannot be faked!”

Vast Treasure True Lord bitterly clenched his fists, his face ashen.

A young man under thirty years old, directly slaying a Divided Soul of a Late Stage Great True Lord of the Ninth Rank—such a terrifying achievement made Vast Treasure True Lord incredibly jealous.

If he possessed such combat power, why would he need to act cautiously around the Dead Spirit Race now?

Cassidy, who was beside him, fell silent after hearing this.

Indeed, as Vast Treasure True Lord said, this news could not be faked, as few people dared to spread rumors about a Late Stage Great True Lord of the Ninth Rank.

It’s just…

“This is troublesome. Wang Chen’s strength far exceeds our expectations. It’s simply impossible for us to kill him with our current power.”

“I will immediately return to the Holy City to report this to the High Priest. Your Excellency Wanbao, do not act rashly recently.”

“That Wang Chen is not someone you can deal with.”

Cassidy said gravely, glancing at the grim-faced Vast Treasure True Lord beside her.

“I know!”

Vast Treasure True Lord clenched his fists tightly, his fingernails digging into his flesh unnoticed.

“Being able to directly slay a Divided Soul of a Late Stage Great True Lord of the Ninth Rank, Wang Chen’s strength is basically unrivaled below the Great True Lord realm. To kill him, either a Great True Lord must personally act, or he must be overwhelmed by sheer numbers.”

“Please tell the High Priest, Your Excellency Cassidy, that for the next interception of Wang Chen, they must send at least one Late Stage expert of the Ninth Rank, otherwise we will have no chance of success.”

“Also, please inform me immediately once the High Priest has made a decision. I will mobilize all the offerings of the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce to act together.”

At this point, the jealousy in Vast Treasure True Lord’s eyes grew increasingly intense, intertwined with a hint of madness and envy.

How wonderful it would be if he possessed such terrifying talent!

The world absolutely cannot allow such a brilliant Prodigy to exist!

At this moment, Vast Treasure True Lord’s killing intent towards Wang Chen was incredibly fervent, several times stronger than when he learned the truth about his son Heavenly Gift’s death.

...

...

While Vast Treasure True Lord was filled with killing intent towards Wang Chen, wishing he could replace him.

On the main peak of the Four Symbols Holy Land in the Southern Region of the Netherworld, violent roars continuously echoed.

“Wang Chen! Damn it!”

“How dare that brat deceive me like this? This old man will surely extract your Divine Soul and light it as a sky lantern!”

“Damn it! Damn it!”

“...”

The violent roars resounded throughout the surroundings, dispersing the clouds shrouding the main peak, allowing all the Disciples of the Four Symbols Holy Land looking in that direction to see an aged figure venting his anger as if insane.

In just a short moment, the main peak in the eyes of the Four Symbols Holy Land members was significantly reduced in height.

“What happened?”

“Why is Grand Elder so furious? And it’s related to that Wang Chen?”

“Mystic Tortoise True Lord has already led thirty inner and outer Elders to Wanshou City. With their strength, it should be easy to kill that beast who dared to provoke our Four Symbols Holy Land. Has something unexpected happened now?”

“Oh my goodness, Grand Elder isn’t going to collapse the main peak today, is he? That’s where the core of our Holy Land’s mountain-guarding formation, the Four Symbols Heaven-Evolving Formation, is located!”

“...”

Voices of panic rose from various parts of the Four Symbols Holy Land, and every Disciple of the Four Symbols Holy Land who heard the commotion was filled with alarm and confusion.

On the main peak, besides Hua Teng Great True Lord, the Grand Elder of the Four Symbols Holy Land who was venting his anger, there was also another person standing there: Zhao Tianxiong, the Holy Lord of the Four Symbols Holy Land.

However, at this moment, he was standing halfway up the mountain, eyes downcast, as if he hadn’t even noticed the Grand Elder going mad above him.

There was no other way. Even if he saw it, he wouldn’t dare to go up the mountain to persuade him; he could only pretend to be a quail.

As the Holy Lord of the Four Symbols Holy Land, Zhao Tianxiong knew more clearly than anyone else in the Holy Land what had happened in Wanshou City.

Mystic Tortoise True Lord was killed in battle, more than half of the thirty inner and outer Elders were killed, and the rest were of unknown fate. As for the ordinary Disciples, the number of casualties was even greater.

The Disciples in the Holy Land were panicked now, but Zhao Tianxiong had been even more panicked before them. The constant shattering of soul pearls was like heavy hammers striking his Divine Soul, almost causing him, with his Early Stage Ninth Rank strength, to suffer a Heart Demon.

And then, the news he received from Grand Elder Hua Teng almost scared him to death.

The Grand Elder’s Divided Soul was defeated by Wang Chen in Wanshou City and had its head crushed.

To Zhao Tianxiong, and to everyone in the entire Four Symbols Holy Land, Grand Elder Hua Teng Great True Lord was their god.

Today, Zhao Tianxiong realized that even a god could be defeated. Even if it was just a Divided Soul being defeated, it shattered Grand Elder Hua Teng’s invincible image in Zhao Tianxiong’s heart.

“Holy Lord, what kind of stimulation did Grand Elder receive? Could it be that he suffered Qi Deviation during his seclusion?”

Just then, a hoarse voice sounded in Zhao Tianxiong’s ear.

He turned his head and saw a tall middle-aged man, around forty or fifty years old, walking quickly towards him.

Below Grand Elder Hua Teng and Holy Lord Zhao Tianxiong in the Four Symbols Holy Land, there were four more True Lord experts, collectively known as the Four Symbols True Lords by the outside world, all with Early Stage Ninth Rank strength.

Mystic Tortoise True Lord, who died in Wanshou City, was one of the Four Symbols True Lords, and this tall man was White Tiger True Lord, another of the Four Symbols True Lords.

“It’s not good for Grand Elder to continue like this. The main peak has been cut down by dozens of meters. If this continues, the core of the Four Symbols Heaven-Evolving Formation will become unstable.”

Seeing Zhao Tianxiong remain silent, White Tiger True Lord looked anxious.

Grand Elder Hua Teng Great True Lord and the Four Symbols Heaven-Evolving Formation were the two major pillars of the Four Symbols Holy Land.

Any problem with either would have an extremely detrimental impact on the Four Symbols Holy Land.
