Chapter 3020 - 3023: The Flame Emperor’s Fury

Chapter 3020: Chapter 3023: The Flame Emperor’s Fury

Canghai Trade Alliance headquarters.

Beside a small lake in the backyard.

In a pavilion by the lake, Alliance Hierarch Pang Wenqing, Si Wenkang, Zhao Buzu, Liu Changfeng, and others were engaged in casual conversation.

After the challenge, the people from Free Valley hurried to the Battlefield Realm, and Tang Wang and others returned to their residences.

"Alliance Hierarch Pang, how many spiritual treasures do you think they can acquire this time?"

Zhao Buzu chuckled as he glanced at Pang Wenqing.

Pang Wenqing glanced at Zhao Buzu and lightly sighed: "Zhao Zun, please don’t provoke me."

"Haha!"

"Haha..."

Everyone laughed heartily.

Hmm?

Suddenly, everyone’s expression shifted slightly, and they looked toward the lake.

"Alliance Hierarch Pang, what is happening here? Why is there a fluctuation of space coming from there?"

Zhao Buzu looked at Pang Wenqing in puzzlement.

"This seems... to have already left the Canglan Continent!"

Si Wenkang spoke with a peculiar look.

Pang Wenqing also appeared bewildered, his expression suddenly changing as he looked at the lake again.

Buzz!

Space fluctuated, and Pang Guang appeared on the lake with a stern face: "Grandfather, Zhao Zun, Brother Jiang is undergoing the Dan tribulation, and Kong Wanchen of the Kongling Clan tried to ambush Brother Jiang, seize the Dao Dan, but when he saw the futility, he escaped using the Spatial Transmission Talisman!"

"What?!"

"Scoundrel!"

Everyone’s expressions changed, and Zhao Buzu shouted angrily, his figure flashing and disappearing on the spot.

"Kongling Clan..."

Si Wenkang’s face darkened, eyebrows furrowing gently, a trace of contemplation flickering in his eyes.

Suddenly, Si Wenkang’s face changed, raising his head and shouted loudly: "Second Brother, can you hear me? If Zhao Buzu wants to head to the Origin Continent, stop him! Bring him back! Fast!"

Pang Wenqing and the others’ expressions changed, their brows furrowed slightly, looking at Si Wenkang in confusion.

Buzz!

Space vibrated, a world projection appeared, and within the projection, a hazy figure grabbed Zhao Buzu and leaped into the pavilion.

"Second Prince, what are you doing?"

Zhao Buzu glared angrily at Si Wenjun, shouting explosively.

Si Wenjun looked at Zhao Buzu, released him, then turned to Si Wenkang: "What happened?"

"Why are you stopping me without knowing what’s happening?"

Zhao Buzu shouted again, moving to leave.

"Zhao Buzu!"

Si Wenkang shouted loudly: "Stop right there!"

Buzz!

A formidable aura exploded from Si Wenkang’s body, pressing down on Zhao Buzu.

Zhao Buzu hesitated, his expression changing, looking at Si Wenkang in surprise.

Pang Wenqing and the others were all shocked, staring at Si Wenkang with astonishment.

In their understanding, Si Wenkang was just a Lower Supreme, yet today, he temporarily suppressed Supreme Pinnacle Zhao Buzu, such strength...

"Things are not as simple as you imagine!"

Si Wenkang looked sternly at Zhao Buzu: "Now is not the time for impulsiveness!"

"Crown Prince, you..."

Zhao Buzu looked at Si Wenkang suspiciously, his eyebrows furrowing slightly.

"I’ve hidden my strength."

Si Wenkang whispered: "I’ve been secretly investigating something with the eldest sons of the other four Great Emperors, and now, there’s a lead. This matter is related to the upcoming multi-realm conflict.

Zhao Buzu, I know you’re angry, I’m angry too. Jiang Chen is our hope, but now is not the time to act against the Kongling Clan. If you intercept Kong Wanchen in the Canglan Continent, there’s no issue.

But if you attack the Kongling Clan, it will trigger a chain reaction!"

"What chain reaction?" Zhao Buzu frowned deeply, staring intently at Si Wenkang, his expression growing solemn.

Everyone became serious.

The implications of Si Wenkang’s words were too alarming!

The eldest sons of five Great Emperors cooperating quietly in investigating something, which pertains to a multi-realm conflict, requires everyone to treat the situation with caution!

"The Kongling Clan is a local force of the Void Nether Realm!"

Si Wenkang spoke with gravity: "Though we arrived due to the Great Luo Realm’s attack on the Nether Realm, fundamentally, we are not people of the Nether Realm."

Zhao Buzu and the others’ faces changed slightly, their eyebrows furrowing deeper, wondering why the matter had shifted in this direction.

"Back then, to annihilate the invading enemies from the Great Luo Realm, we had no choice but to gather some local forces of the Nether Realm. Later, after the Five Continents stabilized, we informed them that those willing to return could do so."

Si Wenkang continued: "However, after the expulsion, many ancestral lands of those forces were destroyed, leaving behind a legacy of hatred!"

"You mean..."

Zhao Buzu’s gaze intensified, a look of shock emerging in his eyes.

"Though over the hundred thousand years, many native forces from back then have accepted our presence, even forming close relations, some forces continue to harbor resentment against us."

A hefty look flickered in Si Wenkang’s eyes: "During the disaster at Linyang City, Lord Ancestral Dragon relayed a message to my father, saying that local forces were involved in the Linyang City disaster. Otherwise, given Yu Fei’s strength, she could not have been so easily slain!"

"What!? Little Sister was... betrayed and killed!?"

A flash of anger and surprise appeared in Zhao Buzu’s eyes.

Whoosh!

A silhouette appeared suddenly beside Si Wenkang, glaring coldly at him: "You’re finally willing to speak?"

"Senior Brother!"

Zhao Buzu’s expression changed slightly, surprised to see the sudden appearance of Flame Emperor.

"When Little Sister met her demise, I sensed the presence of the Hundred Spirit Clan. I wanted to capture members of the Hundred Spirit Clan to interrogate them, but the Great Emperors stopped me, citing the stability of the Nether Realm, urging me not to stir up trouble yet!"

Flame Emperor stared coldly at Si Wenkang, full of anger: "I agreed, for the stability of the Nether Realm, I endured the tragedy of Little Sister’s death! Waiting for you to stabilize the Five Continents!"

Zhao Buzu and the others’ faces changed universally, revealing expressions of shock.

"Senior Brother, you knew Little Sister was betrayed and killed?"

Zhao Buzu spoke with a dark face.

"And afterward?"

Flame Emperor ignored Zhao Buzu, staring directly at Si Wenkang: "After stabilizing the Five Continents, they fled to the domain outside before I went to find them, suppressing the Demon Lord!"

"For the Nether Realm, I endured once more!"

Flame Emperor spoke emotionally, his aura gradually intensifying: "For a hundred thousand years, while safeguarding the Nether Realm with fellow disciples, I secretly investigated the events of back then. Yet every time I approached a revelation, the clues immediately vanished!"

"After several encounters, I realized it was your meddling!"

Flame Emperor grabbed Si Wenkang’s collar fiercely, shouting angrily: "Back then, you claimed to be investigating this matter, which lacked concrete evidence, telling me to wait patiently, and I did!

But Si Wenkang, what about today? A few days ago, you said there was no solid evidence, yet today you stopped Third Brother?

Today, if you don’t explain clearly, I will sever you here, Si Wenkang!

And let’s see, what that scoundrel Yu can do to me!"
