Chapter 1392
<hr>
News that Long Chen had fought against Luo Minghao and Bloodkill 9 at the same time resounded throughout the Eastern Xuan Region . Most shocking of all was that of those two heavenly geniuses, one was slain and the other was sent fleeing .
Despite being struck by the Corrupt path’s Underworld Soul Ghost Curse, Long Chen hadn’t died . Instead, he had advanced to the Jade Core realm and his power had risen explosively . He won even one against two . If Bloodkill 9 hadn’t had an Ancestral item to protect him, he wouldn’t have been able to escape his death either .
At the same time, Long Chen’s ruthlessness enraged countless sects . Their strongest Jade Core disciples had all been killed by Long Chen . They had lost a whole generation of geniuses .
They went to demand justice from Pill Valley, wanting their Pill Tower to teach the Xuantian Dao Sect a lesson . Last time when Zhuo Tianxiang had led them to the Xuantian Dao Sect and their Life Star experts had been killed, they had received a large amount of compensation that had drawn Pill Valley closer to their side .
This time, they had suffered huge losses because they had been currying favor with Pill Valley . They had to stand up for them .
However, they hadn’t expected that the Eastern Xuan Region’s Pill Tower had changed masters . The new Tower Master was from the conservative faction .
As a result, the door was slammed in the face of these experts . They didn’t even get a single pill as compensation .
Now those sects were dumbfounded . Last time, the Pill Tower had been so generous . But this time, they were a cheapskate that wouldn’t even give them a copper coin .
These experts could only clench their teeth and return to their sects . They had to accept a fact . Pill Valley had been flipped on its head .
This was because of Master Long San . The radical faction had been completely suppressed . Although the valley master had said that he would put them in their place once he came out of seclusion, they were like death-row inmates . They only quietly waited for execution . Although they knew that the valley master wouldn’t kill them, they would at least be losing a layer of their skin . They were so busy acting obedient that they didn’t have time to bother with anything else .
With Pill Valley giving in, a storm of protest erupted in the Eastern Xuan Region . The Xuantian Dao Sect was too domineering . Long Chen had killed so many people, and yet no one dared to do anything to them . Even the ancient races and the ancient family alliance didn’t make a sound, let alone try to punish the Xuantian Dao Sect .
The Xuantian Dao Sect’s att.i.tude was obvious . They were rising, and anyone who dared to try stropping them would be viewed as mortal enemies .
Even an existence as powerful as Pill Valley had retreated, not willing to provoke the Xuantian Dao Sect . It seemed even with their power, destroying the Xuantian Dao Sect would come at a huge price .
This was especially true with how Master Long San had half-destroyed Pill Valley .
Pill Valley didn’t want to do anything, while the ancient races and ancient family alliance also didn’t want to take any risks without getting anything in return . Although they were also enormous existences, they weren’t completely united .
Right now, the Xuantian Dao Sect was like a madman . No matter who went against them, the Xuantian Dao Sect would launch the craziest, fiercest attack . With the Xuantian Tower and Reincarnation Mirror backing them, no one dared to take the risk .
Most importantly, even if they did destroy the Xuantian Dao Sect, so what? Without any benefits, there was no way to unite enough people to attack them .
Battle needed a goal, and as long as there was a goal, they could make up any other excuses as to why they had to fight . But without any profit, no one would be willing to try consuming a hard bone like the Xuantian Dao Sect . Their teeth weren’t strong enough for it .
Although the Xuantian Dao Sect had declined, they had the Reincarnation Mirror and the Xuantian Tower . This was their foundation that made it so others didn’t dare to act rashly .
As for the sects that had maintained a neutral position because of the Huayun Sect, they were rejoicing inside now . After weighing the pros and cons, they had decided to not offend anyone and just watch as things developed .
It was because they had been so cautious that they had saved a generation of their disciples . Otherwise, if they had sent people there, they would definitely have died .
The battle in front of the Xuantian Dao Sect had been recorded, and photographic jades quickly spread throughout the Eastern Xuan Region . Everyone saw how terrifying Long Chen was .
People said that as long as they didn’t encounter any powerful opponents, the Xuantian Dao Sect would become the Eastern Xuan Region’s strongest sect in less than a decade .
However, some people had their suspicions . On that day, Long Chen hadn’t come out from within the Xuantian Dao Sect, but had arrived from outside the sect .
People quickly guessed that Long Chen hadn’t been in the Xuantian Dao Sect the entire time . The Xuantian Dao Sect had simply misled them to draw their attention .
Then what had Long Chen been doing during this time? Who had helped him remove the curse? Just as these questions began to pop up, news came from the Grand Xia Ancient Nation . People said that they had seen Long Chen in the Wine G.o.d Palace .
Once this news spread, everyone came to an understanding . Considering Long Chen’s close relations.h.i.+p with the Wine G.o.d Palace, it was clear that he had gone to them to remove the curse .
Once they thought of this, they realized there was only one person who was capable of removing this curse, which even the Xuantian Tower couldn’t suppress . It had to have been the Wine G.o.d Palace’s High Priest .
The High Priest’s position was transcendental . His position was just as high as Pill Valley’s master . As he couldn’t personally go to the Xuantian Dao Sect to help Long Chen, Long Chen had to have gone to him .
