Chapter 1180 - 1179: The Cyan Flame Sect Annihilated?

Zhou Cunjian returned to the clan, and on the third day, he visited again, partly to transport supplies and partly to offer apologies.

However, Ye Qingchen had already left.

If it hadn't been for waiting for news from the Zhou Race, he would have departed as soon as he emerged from seclusion.

Su Qinhu still remained at the Su Family.

Su Tianhai returned to the Extreme North Ice Sea to continue waiting for the Fish Dragon, while Su Nanxuan returned to the Fallen Dragon Abyss.

Speaking of Su Nanxuan's cultivated snake, Ye Qingchen was somewhat surprised. That slap back then had turned most of its body into pulp, leaving only the head. Even so, it managed to survive, showing truly tenacious vitality.

"Fallen Dragon Abyss, Extreme North Ice Sea..."

Ye Qingchen touched his chin. "I didn't expect there to be so many places in the Kunlun Realm that I don't know about! However, my grudges with the Thirty-Six Sects are still unresolved!"

Back then, he pursued Yi Tianli who had fled halfway, chasing all the way to the Southern Heaven, then subsequently entered the Ice and Snow Divine Palace, the Profound Ice Platform Conference, and the Su Sacred Land, temporarily delaying things in the Southern Heaven.

This matter, of course, was yet to be settled.

Ye Qingchen sneered coldly.

Whoosh!

Without stopping along the way, he headed directly to the Cyan Flame Sect. In three to five days, he reached the Southern Heaven. However, the sight there greatly surprised him; all along the way, the ground was scorched, and rivers of blood flowed.

"Hmm, what exactly happened here?"

When he stepped into the Cyan Flame Sect, the scene before him made him frown slightly. The once majestic and grand Cyan Flame Sect had turned into ruins, with broken walls everywhere, and corpses littering the ground.

Everywhere, you could still see Yin Soul Fierce Ghosts moving in howling groups.

"What happened to the Cyan Flame Sect?"

Ye Qingchen walked among the ruins.

Although he didn't witness the battle scene initially, just from the wreckage in front, it was clear how terrifying the opponent's power was. Suddenly, Ye Qingchen raised his eyebrows and shouted coldly to the side:

"Come out, don't hide sneakily over there!"

From a part of the ruins, a girl with a delicate face walked out timidly. She looked at Ye Qingchen and cautiously asked, "Senior, are you here in response to the summoning order?"

"Summoning order?"

Ye Qingchen was slightly taken aback.

Originally intending to return and level the Cyan Flame Sect, the scene before him left him stunned. Who acted even before him?

"Senior, you came back too late; the Cyan Flame Sect has already been razed to the ground," the girl sobbed, "The high ranks of the sect were almost wiped out; only the Sixth Elder Ying Chutian is still alive! I'll take you to see him!"

"Alright!"

Ye Qingchen hesitated a moment but eventually nodded.

As they waded through the layers of ruins, more disciples of the Cyan Flame Sect began to appear around them. Ye Qingchen glanced casually and noticed that most of these disciples were below the Celestial Venerable level, and there were scarcely any Human Immortal ranks.

They were currently in a state of strict defense, as if resisting a formidable enemy.

"What happened to the Cyan Flame Sect?"

At this point, Ye Qingchen couldn't suppress the doubt in his heart and couldn't help but ask.

"The whole Thirty-Six Sects of the Celestial South were completely affected by this event, and you, senior, didn't know about it?" The girl looked at Ye Qingchen in surprise, then suddenly realized, "Senior, you must have been in seclusion?"

"You could say that!"

Ye Qingchen nodded.

The girl wiped her tears and began to explain.

Her name was Ning Lu, a disciple of the Outer Sect of the Cyan Flame Sect:

"The day it happened, no one knew what was going on. Then, we saw dark clouds covering the Cyan Flame Sect, and there was a huge phantom shadow above the clouds! Two Supreme Elders went to fight, but were suppressed by a single palm from the opponent!"

"Later, countless Yin Soul Fierce Ghosts swept through the Cyan Flame Sect, and everyone barely had time to hide. Numerous brothers and seniors from the sect fell; the scene was utter chaos."

"In almost one night, the Cyan Flame Sect was completely annihilated..."

Saying this, Ning Lu wiped her tears again.

Clearly.

For this girl, not yet eighteen, only at the Celestial Venerable rank, that battle was too terrifying, far beyond what they could endure. Ubiquitous Yin Soul Fierce Ghosts, and corpses of fellow disciples everywhere...

That scenario, it's like doomsday had arrived.

"Who did it?"

Ye Qingchen frowned and asked.

"The Ghost Mountain of the Twelve Demon Sects of the Western Wilderness, the Eight-faced Buddha!"

Ning Lu enunciated each word, her teeth grinding.

"The Western Wilderness?"

Upon hearing this, a trace of coldness filled Ye Qingchen's eyes.

Though he had killed countless people in his life, he never implicated the innocent. Even when he was besieged by the Vajra Temple, he only killed Fuhong and others and did not harm ordinary monks.

Unlike this Eight-faced Buddha...

"Now the Sixth Elder is gathering the experts scattered outside the Cyan Flame Sect, as well as the strong ones from the Southern Heaven, to prepare a counterattack against the Netherworld Mountain." Ning Lu wiped her tears and tried to hold her composure.

At this moment.

A middle-aged man in his thirties or forties walked over from the opposite side. After glancing at Ye Qingchen, he couldn't help but ask curiously:

"Ning Lu, who is this?"

"Reporting to Steward Sun Gao! This is the senior who came specifically in response to the summoning order!" Ning Lu quickly explained.

"Him?"

Sun Gao was stunned, but seeing Ye Qingchen's extraordinary attire and imposing demeanor, he clearly wasn't an ordinary figure. However, the aura around him was restrained, and being so young, his cultivation might not be high.

'If it were ordinary times, this kid wouldn't even qualify to enter our Cyan Flame Sect! But now that the Cyan Flame Sect has fallen, we desperately need people!' He thought to himself, and then turned to Ning Lu:

"Since he's here, let him come in with me!"

Although he allowed Ye Qingchen to enter.

He still wore a cold expression throughout, like a face of frost.

Seeing this, Ning Lu stuck out her tongue and whispered to Ye Qingchen, "Senior, Steward Sun has been worried about the war recently, so he's like this, please forgive him."

How could Ye Qingchen bother with such minor characters?

He smiled faintly, "Rest assured, since I'm back, the war will end soon!"

Walking ahead, Sun Gao, hearing these words, felt even more displeased. He already began to regret letting Ye Qingchen in, thinking these young people didn't understand the horror of a righteous and demonic war.

In no time.

Ye Qingchen had already reached the depths of the Cyan Flame Sect.

"Here it is!" Sun Gao arrived in front of a small courtyard and turned to Ye Qingchen, "Be smart when you go in and don't speak recklessly, or no one will be able to protect you!"

After speaking, without waiting for Ye Qingchen to respond, he stepped into the courtyard.

Ye Qingchen followed closely, the noise inside already reaching his ears, making his brows twitch immediately.
