Chapter 2221: Wang Chunming’s Arrival (1/2)

There was a massive city located hundreds of millions of miles north of the Devouring Icy Forest, and it was virtually boundless. It was hundreds of times larger than the largest Heavenly Country located in the Heavens Path in the lower realm!

Above the entrance of the city were two majestic words, ‘Falling Jade!’

Falling Jade!

The two words alone emitted endless prestige, and there seemed to be a majestic aura surrounding them. The heavenly dao seemed to revolve around the two words, and there was no doubt that a supreme master had carved the words in the Venerable Realm.

There was no mistake! That was the capital of the Falling Jade Dynasty!

The capital city lay in the heart of the dynasty, and it was the holy city to the kingdoms serving under the dynasty. Vassals like the Jinyuan Kingdom and the various super sects yearned for nothing more than to get into the good graces of the city lord!

Of course, there were tons of sect headquarters situated in the capital city. Ancient families had chosen to place their roots there, and superpowers like the Big Dipper Sword Sect and the Nine Heavens Gate were no exceptions.

As for the final supreme sect in the dynasty, the Incineration Valley hadn’t moved over their headquarters. However, they had placed a massive branch sect in the capital of the dynasty.

There were millions upon millions of palaces situated in the southern part of the city. They were constructed row after row, and every single one was crafted with the most precious materials. As fire attributed construction materials were used in almost every palace, there seemed to be a grand fire formation arranged in the region.

That was precisely the branch of the Incineration Valley, and they took up an extremely vast area. Despite it being only a branch, they occupied an area as large as a world surface in the lower worlds!

In the branch sect, tons of disciples streamed in and out of palaces, and everything seemed to be in perfect order. Guards were stationed around all the palaces, and there was an air of rigidity amongst the bustle.

When everything was going about in the outside world, Wang Chunming, the grand hall master of the Incineration Valley, was seated in the middle of the branch sect. His expression was ugly to the extreme as he had just received news from the headquarters that the soul slips of Chen Ye and the others had shattered!

The Valley Master was enraged, and he ordered for Wang Chunming to conduct an in-depth investigation about the matter!

In the span of a day, more than twenty Sovereigns from the Incineration Valley had died! This was the first time something like that had happened since the founding of the valley!

Moreover, there were eight grand elders in the party who had died! Out of the six of them, Chen Ye was at the peak of the late-Sixth Order Sovereign Realm! Even though the Incineration Valley was one of the three supreme sects, such a loss was too large for them to bear silently!

“Who! Who did this?!” Wang Chunming roared as killing intent shot out from his eyes. He stared in the direction of the Devouring Icy Forest as anger boiled in his heart.

He was the one who had sent Chen Ye and the rest out to obtain the eyes of a Six Eyed Ice Lion. Due to his order, Chen Ye and the others were killed!

“Men!”

Wang Chunming growled.

“Pass down my order! Gather the experts we have in the capital! We’re going to the Devouring Icy Forest!”

“Yes, Grand Hall Master!”

In a flash, Wang Chunming gathered several Sovereign Realm experts. Without the slightest hesitation, they charged straight towards the forest.

Since the Incineration Valley had sealed off the news about Chen Ye’s death, no one in the capital city had heard about the news. However, Wang Chunming’s actions couldn’t be concealed from the eyes and ears in the city. He created quite the commotion when he left the city with several experts in tow, and it aroused the suspicion of many superpowers.

“What’s going on in the Incineration Valley? Why did Wang Chunming lead a group of experts out of the city?”

“I wonder if Wang Chunming has already broken into the late-First Order Venerable Realm... He was still at the peak of the mid-First Order Venerable Realm several million years ago. I’ve heard that he managed to obtain, the Purple Sea Peony, a level-five origin treasure in the past!”

“Did he really manage to obtain the Purple Sea Peony?!”

…

Even though Huang Xiaolong ventured deeper into the forest after killing Chen Ye and the rest, he didn’t dare to go in too deep. After all, the strength of the vicious beasts would only grow stronger the deeper he went. Huang Xiaolong was sure that there were Venerable Realm vicious beasts in the heart of the Devouring Icy Forest! Without recovering to his peak state, he felt that it wouldn’t hurt to be more careful.

One day passed just like that…

Huang Xiaolong stopped when he arrived at an icy gorge.
