Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Liu Dong Ming and his companion were killed in just a blink of an eye.
Liu Dong Ming had no intention to fight Du Qian Jun as soon as Du Qian Jun and his companion brought out mediocre divine artifacts. Initially, he thought the person he knew as Du Yan who had a similar cultivation base with him would also have a primitive divine artifact. However, not only did his
opponent has a mediocre divine artifact, but his opponent’s companion also had a mediocre divine artifact. Moreover, Du Qian Jun’s companion was not any weaker than Du Qian Jun. With this, the difference between their strength was too wide.
Nonetheless, at that time, Liu Dong Ming did not panic. After all, he thought he still had Sima Han and his companion supporting him. He thought with Sima Han and his companion’s help, the four of them would be able to safely escape into the Divine Sanctuary. Who knew that when he turned around to
ask for help, Sima Han and his companion had already lifted their swords.
Previously, Sima Han had shown that he had comprehended the law of water. However, why was he so skilled at the law of ice? Most importantly, he did not understand why Sima Han would suddenly turn on him.
Alas, before Lu Dong Ming could figure out the answer, he had already been killed.
Similarly, Liu Dong Ming’s companion was killed by the red-clad young man next to Sima Han.
The red-clad young man comprehended the law of thunder. With just a wave of his hand, he also beheaded Liu Dong Ming’s companion. Then, he collected Liu Dong Ming and his companion’s primitive divine artifacts. As for the Spatial Rings, they had self-destructed as soon as their owners died.
After the red-clad young man returned to Sima Han’ss side, Sima Han shook his head as he said to Du Qian Jun, “Qian Jun, since you came with Wu Yi Shan, why didn’t you kill them during the journey here? With both of your strength, it’s not difficult to kill them.
Sima Han only mentioned Wu Feng whom he had known as Wu Yi Shan. He did not mention Duan Ling Tian at all as though Duan Ling Tian did not exist. In his eyes, an advanced god was nothing, after all.
Upon hearing these words, Du Qian Jun said with a bitter smile, “Young Master Chu, I wasn’t aware of your identity before so I thought keeping the two alive will help me guard against six of you.” He paused briefly before he continued to say confidently, “If I had known about your identity, I would’ve
killed them immediately. In any case, it’s not a problem. With the two of us joining forces, it won’t be difficult for us to kill Wu Yi Shan later. As for the advanced god with him, there’s no need to worry about him at all. I can kill him with just a move!”
“There were too many people previously so I didn’t have a good look at you. However, when I saw you today, I realized how much you resemble your grandfather. Since my master mentioned something about Elder Du Zhan having two grandsons, it didn’t take long for me to figure out your identity.”
Sima Han, whose real name was Chu Han, was a disciple of the emperor-rank sect that controlled the Hidden Fog Sect, the 10,000 Devils Sect, and the Linghu clan. Since the three lord-rank forces would regularly pay tribute to the emperor-rank sect, the three lord-rank forces were naturally under the
protection of the emperor-rank sect. Moreover, they would regularly send young talents to the emperor-rank sect as well.
Despite having to pay tribute regularly, the three lord-rank forces were not dissatisfied. After all, if the emperor-rank sect decided to make a move against them, they would be powerless to exist. Since paying tribute bought them peace, how could they feel dissatisfied?
“Although the purple-clad young man next to Wu Yi Shan is just an advanced god, he’s very clever,” Chu Han said in a deep voice as his eyes flashed, “It might seem like he was being unreasonable earlier, but he had, in fact, avoided the danger. After all, we planned to strike at as many people as we can
when they turn their back to us. With his meddling, we only managed to kill two people in the end.”
“That brat is so annoying,” Du Qian Jun said coldly, “He better pray he doesn’t meet me in the Divine Sanctuary. Otherwise, I’l definitely skin him alive before I kill him!”
A hint of killing intent flashed in Chu Han’s eyes as he said, “Let’s go. Who knows, we might be transported to the same place as Wu Yi Shan and Yue Qi. They might even still be there.”
Du Qian Jun laughed. “It’ll be great if that’s the case! We can kill all of them in one fell swoop, leaving four of us to explore the Divine Sanctuary!”
Yue Qi and his companion had grown impatient and were about to leave. They thought perhaps the second group of people was transported to another place. After all, the destinations for spatial passages were not always fixed. However, they suddenly saw the void rippling before four figures appeared in
front of them.
“Why are there only four of them?” Yue Qi frowned. Then, he called out, “Sima Han, where are Liu Dong Ming and his companion?”
Yue Qi looked at Du Qian Jun and his companion vigilantly as he brought the old man with him to stand next to Chu Han and the red-clad young man.
Upon hearing these words, Chu Han looked around in confusion before he said, “Huh? Where are they? Didn’t they come in with us?”
As soon as Chu Han’s voice fell, Yue Qi and the old man who were looking around for Liu Dong Ming and his companion saw Divine Energy surging out of Du Qian Jun’s body.
Following that, Du Qian Jun brought his divine artifact out and cast the profundities from the law he comprehended before he attacked Yue Qi and his companion.
Everything happened in just a blink of an eye.
Although Yue Qi was wary of Du Qian Yu, he did not expect Du Qian Jun would dare to attack with Sima Han around. He hurriedly mobilized his Divine Energy as he shouted, “Du Yan, what’s the meaning of this?”
The old man standing behind Yue Qi stepped forward and brought out his divine artifact as well. Flames burned around the divine artifact immediately, indicating that he had comprehended the law of fire.
“What do you think? Obviously, I’m trying to kill you!” Du Qian Jun said as he attacked along with the middle-aged man.
Then, what happened to Liu Dong Ming and his companion happened to Yue Qi and the old man as well.
Blood splattered everywhere in just an instant.
The old man lay on the ground lifelessly next to the red-clad young man’s feet.
This time, Chu Han did not make a move.
Boom!
Du Qian Jun and the middle-aged man attacked Yue Qi at the same time. Yue Qi’s attacks were useless and easily deflected. He was sent crashing against the cave wall. When he slid down to the ground, he was panting heavily, unable to get up. After he spat out a mouthful of blood, he looked at the four
people in front of him in disbelief. He did not expect Chu Han, whom he had known as Sima Han, would collude with Du Qian Jun from the 10,000 Devils Sect. After all, to him, Sima Han was a sectless cultivator like him. He did not understand why a sectless cultivator would ally with someone from the
10,000 Devils Sect.
“Why?” Yue Qi asked in a deep voice as he looked at Chu Han, “Chu Han, you betrayed my trust!”

Before Chu Han replied, Du Qian Jun said with a scoff, “Trust? Yue Qi, don’t you feel embarrassed saying such a word? Don’t tell me you didn’t plan to take advantage of Young Master Han in the Divine Sanctuary? Or did you plan to give up on the treasures?”
Upon hearing the way Du Qian Jun addressed Chu Han, Yue Qi’s expression changed. “Young Master Han? Sima Han, you’re from the 10,000 Devils Sect as well?”
Chu Han did not reply to Yue Qi. Instead, he looked at the two paths in the cave before he asked Yue Qi, “Where did Wu Yi Shan and his companion go?”
Yue Qi did not reply to Chu Han as well. He asked, “Were you the one who killed Liu Dong Ming and his companion?”
Chu Han nodded indifferently.
At this time, Du Qian Jun walked to Yue Qi before he stomped his foot on Yue Qi’s chest. Then, he asked icily, “Didn’t you hear Young Master Han’s question? Hurry up and answer him!”
Chu Han was the disciple of a high-ranking official of the emperor-rank sect. Moreover, Chu Han’s master was also someone Du Qian Jun’s grandfather respected. If they followed the hierarchy, Du Qian Jun even had to address Chu Han as ‘junior uncle’.
“Tell me, what’s your relationship? Otherwise, even if I die, I won’t tell you where Wu Yi Shan went,” Yue Qi said after he spat out another mouthful of blood.
“Well, it doesn’t matter if I tell you,” Du Qian Jun said indifferently, “My real name is Du Qian Jun. I’m the grandson of Du Zhan, the Supreme Elder of the 10,000 Devils Sect.”
Yue Qi’s eyes widened when he learned of Du Qian Jun’s identity. He did not expect that he had been scheming against a person with such a background. After all, as a sectless cultivator, he was rather respectful of some with Du Qian Jun’s status..
