Chapter 736 Meeting the Patriarch again (2/2)

Zhou Yuan frowned. He wanted to ask more but held himself back when he thought of Yaoyao’s current predicament. “Patriarch, I have completed the task you gave me. The culprit behind your death is peak master Lei Jun.”

Patriarch Cang Xuan’s expression turned complicated. “I am aware of the events that transpired after you arrived here. I just didn't expect my old friend to hold so much resentment towards me.

“In my younger days, Lei Jun really was someone I looked up to. He protected me from bullies and was like a big brother to me.

“Later on, when I had climbed to the pinnacle of the world, I found that he was still in that small little town. The genius from back then was now a nameless n.o.body, so I took him with me to establish the Cangxuan Sect.

“Looking back, he most likely felt that I wasn’t doing it to help him. Perhaps taking him along might have seemed like some kind of humiliation?”

Zhou Yuan was silent for a moment before he responded, “The little brother in his eyes had become an existence that he could only look up to. Once the mind loses its balance, it is easy to become an extremist.”

Patriarch Cang Xuan gave a bitter smile. He still couldn't easily read the minds of others after becoming an almighty Saint expert. Of course, Lei Jun had also hidden it far too well.

“Never mind, let’s not talk about him.”

Patriarch Cang Xuan waved his hand and said, “Our priority is to deal with Sheng Yuan.”

“How?” Zhou Yuan hurriedly asked. “He has already stepped into the Saint stage!”

Patriarch Cang Xuan chuckled, “How can that be considered a Saint expert? He merely relied on an external, and can't be called a true Saint.

“If it wasn't for the sacred race, he wouldn’t even have the guts to attack me.

“I originally planned to save my final bit of power to attack while his guard is down, but given the current circ.u.mstances, that plan is no longer necessary. In that case, let’s fight head on.”

Seeing patriarch Cang Xuan’s calm att.i.tude, Zhou Yuan also relaxed a little.

“I’ll have to borrow your body for a while. Although it may hurt a little afterwards, young people should experience some pain, isn’t that right?” patriarch Cang Xuan stretched his body.

Zhou Yuan was taken aback. Without waiting for a response, patriarch Cang Xuan turned into countless specks of light that shot towards him and enveloped his body.

A mighty aura slowly arose from Zhou Yuan’s body.

Ch!

Palace master Sheng Yuan’s figure appeared in the mysterious domain.

His eyes immediately locked onto the Cangxuan Saint Stamp that was still erupting with light waves as greed flickered in his eyes. He then cast a dark gaze towards Zhou Yuan, who was standing motionless next to the Saint Stamp.

“What an eyesore.”

His tone was filled with nonchalance. With a flick of his finger, a wisp of golden Saint flame swept out. s.p.a.ce crumbled as the flame flew past. If Zhou Yuan was. .h.i.t, both his body and Spirit would be incinerated into nothingness.

The Saint flame drifted downwards, seemingly slow, but directly piercing through s.p.a.ce itself. It was impossible to evade the Saint flame. No matter what corner of the earth Zhou Yuan hid in, the Saint flame would follow his Spirit until he was turned to nothingness.

In the outside world, sect master Qing Yang was extremely alarmed by this scene but he knew that it was too late to save Zhou Yuan. After all, Zhou Yuan was as insignificant and small as an ant in Sheng Yuan’s eyes.

Old man Bai Mei, the Hongya Peak master and others sighed in sorrow as they stamped their feet in frustration.

The other experts shook their heads in sympathy.

Under countless gazes, the Saint flame was already mere inches from Zhou Yuan's head. But at that moment, his body seemed to stiffen before he slowly raised his head.

The Saint flame was reflected in his eyes.

He looked at the Saint flame, smiled, then opened his mouth and blew gently.

Ch!

The Saint flame that could incinerate experts of the Law Domain was instantly extinguished like a candle.

The entire world fell silent.

Even Sheng Yuan couldn’t stop his face from turning rigid.
