Chapter 338: Chapter 189: I Am My Entire Family; To Kill Me Is to Kill My Entire Family

Deep within Celestial Killing Mountain.

The forest was dense, the mountains rolling.

Inside a hidden cave.

The expression on the slender, black-robed figure’s face shifted as he stared at the message that had just arrived, a sense of unreality washing over him.

’Chen Xuan... the one I personally hunted not long ago... has become an Outer Saint?’

’And he killed several Outer Saints from the Northern Barbarians!’

’Including that Su Lun, the one with the Six Paths of Reincarnation Body?’

’How is this possible?’

"A monster... truly a monster,"

the slender figure mumbled.

Endless regret welled up inside him.

If he had known this would happen, he never would have let himself be goaded by Crossroads Slope into hunting Chen Xuan.

And now look.

Chen Xuan had become an Outer Saint so quickly.

Right now, he wanted to slap himself silly.

The slender figure began to pace back and forth in the cave, his heart pounding with anxiety.

’This won’t do. I should go into hiding for a few days.’

Although he had been extremely discreet back then, leaving absolutely no clues,

’But what if?’

’What if Chen Xuan found out?’

’With my current strength, I most likely wouldn’t be able to stop him.’

But if he went into hiding, would Chen Xuan take his anger out on Celestial Killing Mountain? Would he wipe out the entire sect?

At this thought, the slender figure grew even more anxious, his pacing quickening.

But soon, he stomped his foot.

’Forget it! What are the lives of the younger generation compared to my own? If they die, we can always have more. I need to get out of here and hide!’

He shot out of the cave and flew into the distance, immediately gathering all the important members of his clan.

"I have to go away on business for a few days. While I’m gone, none of you are to leave without reason, nor are you to provoke anyone. Wait for the Mountain Lord and the other Supreme Elders to return. Do you understand?"

the slender figure said in a low voice.

"Eight Ancestors, has something happened?"

an elder from Celestial Killing Mountain asked in shock.

They had never seen the Eight Ancestors with such an expression before.

"This doesn’t concern you. It’s my own affair."

The slender figure waved his hand calmly and said, "As long as you don’t leave the mountain, you will be fine. Remember, everyone is to stay put and keep to themselves. I’m leaving now!"

WHOOSH!

He transformed into a streak of light and shot away.

All the members of Celestial Killing Mountain were stunned, unable to understand what was happening.

But just as he shot past the mountain gate,

Suddenly, the slender figure’s expression changed. He snapped his head up with a roar and frantically summoned all the True Essence in his body, which surged forth like a boundless, crashing tide.

From the distance,

a golden streak of light, wreathed in brilliant, blinding lightning, shot toward him at extreme speed. It was like a terrifying, burning war spear, aimed straight for his body.

BOOM!

CRACK!

A deafening roar echoed as flames swept through the air. The figure was slammed into the ground, shaking the very earth and causing countless buildings in Celestial Killing Mountain’s front courtyard to collapse.

The people in the rear courtyard turned pale with shock and rushed out to see what was happening.

The sight made their faces drain of all color, their eyes widening in disbelief.

The front plaza was a field of rubble with a massive crater in the ground.

Terrifyingly hot golden flames burned fiercely.

In the very center of it all,

a tall, powerfully built figure in black stood, his black hair whipping in the wind, his expression cold. One foot was planted firmly on the Eight Ancestors’ face like a spear, pinning him to the ground like a dead dog.

"Run? Did you really think you could run from me?"

"Chen... Chen Xuan!"

From the crowd, Li Heihu stared in terror, trembling uncontrollably.

THUD!

His knees buckled, and he dropped to the ground, completely unable to bear the pressure.

He was one of the Grotto Heaven prodigies Chen Xuan had taught a lesson to at the Dragon Vein spring. Back then, Li Heihu had been at the True Essence Eighth Layer, while Chen Xuan had just entered the Inner Realm.

Now, he was at the True Essence Ninth Layer.

And Chen Xuan was already an Outer Saint...

Admittedly, after Chen Xuan had left that day, Li Heihu had secretly sworn that every dog has its day, and that sooner or later, he would get his revenge.

After all, the higher the realm, the harder it was to break through. He figured Chen Xuan would eventually get stuck at the Peak of the Inner Realm or in the Outer Saint Realm, which would give him time to catch up...

But now, Chen Xuan was an Outer Saint.

Catch up? Catch up, my ass.

Seeing Chen Xuan pin their Eight Ancestors to the ground with a single stomp was a terrifying sight that shattered what little composure he had left.

[You have publicly and severely injured an Outer Saint expert. Retribution points +100,000!]

[A True Essence Realm expert’s will has been broken. Retribution points +20,000!]

’True Essence Realm?’

Chen Xuan looked back, surprised.

’An unexpected bonus?’

The members of the Li family were all horrified.

’Chen Xuan?’

’He’s Chen Xuan?’

’But why has he come to our home looking for blood?’

"Chen Xuan, don’t kill him yet! Hand him over to me!"

Ancient Star River’s voice rang out. A green light flashed, and with a BOOM, Old Deng’s body descended from the sky, landing nearby.

Gazing at Li Guiyuan, who was pinned beneath Chen Xuan’s foot with a bloody mouth and nose and a shattered cheek, Old Deng’s face turned livid. "You son of a bitch! The day you forced me to kneel, to kowtow to you, and even slapped my face... did you ever imagine I would come back for you today!"

"A misunderstanding! It’s all a misunderstanding! I didn’t do it, it wasn’t me..."

Li Guiyuan denied it vehemently from the ground, his face a mask of terror.

He had worn a black mask that day, and the face covering was even made of a special material.

There was no way anyone could have seen his real face.

"Bullshit!"

Old Deng roared, "When you fought me, you exposed your Celestial Killing Scripture! Did you think I wouldn’t know? The final three forms of the Celestial Killing Scripture are incredibly secret, and very few in the Grotto Heaven World can recognize them. But I happen to be one of them! My master once suffered a great defeat at the hands of this very technique. You think you can fool me?"

"What?"

Li Guiyuan’s heart trembled.

To be cautious, he had even altered the Celestial Killing Scripture slightly, disguising it as another technique.
