Chapter 545: Chapter 234: Heaven-Overturning Seal Suppresses a Grotto Heaven Master

’So that’s how it is,’ Chen Xuan thought to himself.

’In that case, I can prepare properly.’

’From now on, when I encounter such powerful experts, I have to be cautious. Extremely cautious...’

’Until I have absolute power, I must not reveal anything about the Primordial Barbaric Energy.’

Chen Xuan’s eyes grew cold. He scanned the distant darkness, his gaze piercing for hundreds of miles. He could vaguely make out numerous figures flickering about, a clear sign that a storm was brewing.

’The ancient villages are bound to make a big move soon. I wonder when you’ll strike?’

With his mind in turmoil, Chen Xuan quickly left the area.

As expected.

After Chen Xuan’s departure, the entire shallow layer of darkness was anything but calm.

Undercurrents surged within the various ancient villages.

In addition, the beings from the depths of the darkness were also on the move.

They made inquiries everywhere, probing from all angles.

But you can’t wrap fire in paper, and besides, too many people had gone to the Cave of Ten Thousand Demons that day.

With so many people, loose lips were inevitable.

Soon, news began to spread.

"Not long ago, Yama Chen, Chu Shanhe, and City Lord Feng went to that ancient city..."

"Yama Chen practices a Fire Attribute Cultivation Technique..."

All sorts of rumors suddenly started to circulate.

This sent a chill through the beings from the depths of the darkness. Their gazes pierced through the gloom, converging on Qianling City.

A day later, four figures flew in from the distance. They were dressed in four different sets of clothes—gold, silver, bronze, and iron—and they descended toward Qianling City.

"Is City Lord Feng present? An old acquaintance seeks an audience!"

The voices of the four echoed as they spoke.

Feng Wuji, Chu Shanhe, and Xue Wanchuan immediately emerged from their rooms and appeared in the courtyard.

"It’s you!"

Feng Wuji’s eyes turned cold as he stared at the four men before him. "The four demons of the Zhao family. What do you want?"

He recognized them at a glance.

They all hailed from the depths of the darkness and were utterly vicious.

"City Lord Feng, we have come on the orders of three Cave Heaven Realm masters to invite Yama Chen to the Zhan family’s ancient village for a discussion. Might we ask where Yama Chen is now?"

The leader of the Zhao family’s four demons spoke in a flat tone, his eyes fixed on Feng Wuji.

"Chen Xuan doesn’t know them, and he has no time to meet with you!"

Chu Shanhe replied coldly, dismissing them with a wave of his hand.

"This must be the famous Alliance Leader Chu, I presume?"

The lead demon’s voice remained flat as he turned to Chu Shanhe. "The three Cave Heaven Realm masters have also requested that Alliance Leader Chu come along."

"What a joke! I don’t know you people either. There’s nothing to discuss."

Chu Shanhe retorted coldly.

"I’m afraid that’s not up to Alliance Leader Chu," the lead demon continued in his calm tone.

"Are you looking for a fight?" Feng Wuji suddenly barked.

"We won’t resort to violence. We just want to show you something."

The lead demon smiled faintly and glanced at his second brother beside him.

The second demon sneered, then suddenly took a Jade Pendant from his robes. True Essence surged from him, instantly activating it.

SHIING!

Light burst from the Jade Pendant, projecting a clear scene.

It was a scene from the Red Dust World.

The mountains were high, the sun was bright, and the scenery was beautiful.

It was, unmistakably, the Martial Alliance’s main hall.

At that very moment, inside the main hall, a figure was seated. His face was blurry. He wore a white robe and held an exquisite teacup, gently stirring its contents. He took a sip of the tea and said calmly:

"There’s no decent tea in the Martial Alliance!"

The image panned, revealing the scene around him.

A group of Martial Alliance experts was kneeling beside him.

Old Deng was at the front.

All the others, including Elder Zhuo, Elder Wuu, Elder Zhou, and Elder Jiang, were there.

Every one of them was pale and motionless.

Old Deng, in particular, had his hair disheveled, and clear handprints were visible on both his cheeks.

"How dare you attack my Martial Alliance!!"

Chu Shanhe roared, his eyes wide with fury.

"Alliance Leader Chu, there’s no need to get excited. As long as you and Yama Chen come with us, the Martial Alliance will naturally be unharmed," the lead demon said.

"And what if I don’t go with you?"

A cold, abrupt voice suddenly rang in the four demons’ ears.

The four of them were startled and quickly turned around.

The moment they turned, they were met by a pair of terrifyingly bright, piercing eyes. It was as if lightning had shattered the darkness and struck directly into their minds.

BOOM! All four of them felt their minds being seized at the same time and screamed in agony.

A raging Heart Fire erupted from within their minds, burrowed into their brains, and instantly took control of their souls.

After a brief scream, the four became dazed and motionless.

"Who is the person who went to the Martial Alliance? What’s his power level?"

Chen Xuan’s tone was ice-cold.

"His name is Demon Owl. He is Venerable Di Xin’s eldest disciple. His power is unfathomable, at the Half-Step Grotto Heaven Realm!" the lead demon said in a stupor.

"How did he get there?"

Chen Xuan’s tone was frigid.

"He used the passage of a Grotto Heaven world. He slaughtered a Grotto Heaven world and used it to get out," the lead demon mumbled.

"Is there anyone else?"

Chen Xuan continued to question him.

"Yes, Venerable Di Xin went himself, along with his newly accepted disciple, Long Ling’Er," the lead demon mumbled.

"A Cave Heaven Realm master went personally!"

A chill flashed in Chen Xuan’s eyes.

Feng Wuji and Chu Shanhe were both stunned.

’A Cave Heaven expert went to the Red Dust World?’

’It’s over!’

"Yes," the lead demon continued to respond.

"Good. I understand."

A cold light glinted in the depths of Chen Xuan’s eyes.

PFFT!

The Unwarranted Heart Fire flared, and in an instant, the four men before him let out a final scream as their bodies disintegrated into ash.

[...Retribution Points +450,000!]

"Alliance Leader, I need to make a trip."

Chen Xuan immediately looked at Chu Shanhe.

"Chen Xuan, I’ll go with you!"

Chu Shanhe said at once.

"Chen Xuan, you must remain calm! A Cave Heaven expert is no small matter. It would be better to wait here for my Master to arrive. He’ll be here soon!"
