Eternal Sacred King

2733 Whereabouts of Xiaoning

In the academy, due to the supreme might of the Sect Master of the Academy, even if someone heard those rumors, no one dared to discuss it, let alone reveal them in front of the Sect Master of the Academy.

No one dared to question the Sect Master of the Academy.

Yang Ruoxu was the only one.

There were many disciples in the academy but only Yang Ruoxu could cultivate the Righteousness Sutra to greater mastery.

After Yang Ruoxu said that, Heaven and Earth Palace suddenly fell into a deathly silence. The atmosphere was solemn and suffocating, even filled with a murderous intent!

Mo Qing glanced at Yang Ruoxu with a worried expression.

There was a high chance that the Sect Master of the Academy could cripple and expel him from the academy just because of what he just said.

However, that would confirm the rumors even more!

Yang Ruoxu stood upright and looked at the Sect Master of the Academy fixedly. His gaze was even a little rude, wanting to find an answer from the Sect Master’s gaze and expression.

Unfortunately, the Sect Master of the Academy was silent.

His eyes were calm when he heard his question.

Nothing could be read from the Sect Master of the Academy.

“Are you suspecting me?”

The Sect Master of the Academy asked slowly with a calm gaze.

“I wouldn’t dare.”

Although Yang Ruoxu said that he did not dare to, his tone did not show any weakness. He said in a deep voice, “I just want the truth.”

“Does the truth matter?”

“Yes.”

The two of them looked at each other without backing down.

The Sect Master of the Academy smiled gently and waved his hand. “Since you don’t believe me, go and seek the answer yourself.”

Yang Ruoxu looked at the Sect Master of the Academy deeply. “I’ll definitely do that. Even though Junior Brother Su is dead, I have to uphold justice for him!”

With that said, Yang Ruoxu turned to leave.

Mo Qing’s expression changed.

Although she already had a bad feeling, she was still shocked when she heard the news of Junior Brother Su’s death.

“M-Master, is Junior Brother Su really…”

Mo Qing’s voice trembled.

Sword Immortal Yue Hua frowned. “Junior Sister, why are you still referring to him as Junior Brother Su? He’s just a b*stard who betrayed his master and roots!”

“Karma came for that b*stard and he was devoured by the Emperor’s Tomb, buried within!”

Mo Qing’s figure swayed slightly.

“I understand.”

A moment later, Mo Qing lowered her head and said. She turned to leave Heaven and Earth Palace and walked towards her cave abode in a daze.

Heaven and Earth Palace.

After Yang Ruoxu and Mo Qing left, Sword Immortal Yue Hua asked the Sect Master of the Academy, “Master, Yang Ruoxu spoke rudely to you earlier on. Why didn’t you kill him? At the very least, according to the sect rules, you could have crippled and expelled him from the academy!”

“He’s just a naive ant.”

The Sect Master of the Academy said indifferently, “Su Zimo died in the Emperor’s Tomb and there’s no evidence. He wants to find the truth? How can there be truth in the world?”

“As long as I wield enough power, wouldn’t the truth just be anything I want it to be?”

“I let him stay in the academy to let him know that everything he obtained was given by me! Since I can give it to him, I can take it all back as well!”

Sword Immortal Yue Hua understood. “I understand.”

“Yes.”

The Sect Master of the Academy nodded slightly and praised, “How obedient.”

…

Green Firmament Immortal Domain, Battle Kingdom.

Lin Zhan and Immortal Queen Ling Long sat in the main hall with faint worry on their faces.

The matter of Su Zimo betraying Heaven and Earth Academy and dying in the Emperor’s Tomb was still brewing in the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain.

Although they spread the truth of the matter outside, it did not cause much of a stir.

Immortal King Qing Yang, King Jin and the others who were involved naturally would not admit to this. Instead, they declared at the same time that Su Zimo was a traitor of the academy.

That way, they had sufficient reason to fight against Lin Zhan when they descended upon the Battle Kingdom previously.

Su Zimo came from the lower worlds and had no backing in the Nine Firmament Immortal Domain at all.

As time passed, most cultivators were still inclined to believe in Heaven and Earth Academy.

Suddenly, Lin Zhan asked, “There’s still no movement from the Grand Firmament Immortal Domain?”

“I’m not sure.”

Immortal Queen Ling Long shook her head gently. “Logically speaking, the news I sent out has already reached Immortal Emperor Grand Firmament.”

“Could it be that Immortal Emperor Grand Firmament doesn’t intend to pursue this matter?”

Lin Zhan frowned.

Immortal Queen Ling Long shook her head. “It doesn’t make sense. The Grand Pure Jade Manual is of great importance and is one of the Taboo Mystic Classics. Furthermore, his son was even killed by the Sect Master of the Academy. He shouldn’t let the matter rest.”

Although that was the case, there was no movement in the Grand Firmament Immortal Domain in the end.

…

Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom, library.

When the news of Su Zimo betraying Heaven and Earth Academy and dying in the Emperor’s Tomb spread, Liu Ping finally realized why Su Zimo arranged for him and Tao Yao to come to the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom back then.

This was to protect the two of them!

Liu Ping was furious about that.

He had followed Su Zimo for an extremely long time and believed that there was definitely no way he would betray the academy and his master. There had to be a reason behind it!

On the other hand, Tao Yao seemed relatively calm.

That was because he knew that even if the Green Lotus True Body died, Su Zimo still had a Martial Dao Prime Body who could kill his way back to the Heavenly World in the future!

Yun Zhu calmed down quickly as well.

She also knew of the existence of the Martial Dao Prime Body and believed that one day, Su Zimo would make a comeback and descend on the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain!

On this day, she received a message from a trusted aide.

When she saw that news, Yun Zhu had a conflicted expression and sighed gently.

Prior to this, Su Zimo had asked her for a favor—he wanted to find the whereabouts of a cultivator named Su Xiaoning.

The news stated that Su Xiaoning’s whereabouts had been found in the Elixir Firmament Immortal Domain!

Unfortunately, Su Zimo was already dead.

As for Desolate Martial of the Fiend Domain, she could not contact him.

After pondering for a moment, Yun Zhu wrote a message and sent it back.

She did not mention much inside other than for the person to take care of Su Xiaoning secretly and not show his face for the time being.

Su Xiaoning had already settled down in the Elixir Firmament Immortal Domain and Yun Zhu had no reason to bring her over to the Zi Xuan Immortal Kingdom.

Furthermore, to Su Xiaoning, the Elixir Firmament Immortal Domain was more suitable for her cultivation.

After pondering for a long time, Yun Zhu took out another messenger talisman and wrote something.

“Little brother, after you left, something major happened in the Divine Firmament Immortal Domain. Su Zimo’s Creation Green Lotus bloodline was exposed and he was surrounded and killed by the Sect Master of the Academy and the others. In the end, he was forced into the Emperor’s Tomb and buried there.”

“Since you’ve already settled down there, cultivate in peace and strive to return as soon as possible. Everything will be fine for us. Don’t worry.”

Thereafter, Yun Zhu sent out the messenger talisman and vanished in the blink of an eye.

Although Yun Ting and Su Zimo had fought twice before, Yun Zhu knew that the two of them appreciated each other.

In Yun Ting’s heart, he had always regarded Su Zimo as his greatest rival and not an enemy.

In Yun Zhu’s opinion, this news should be told to Yun Ting.
