Chapter 3545: Ambushed by Three Emperors
The entire head of the Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch ancestor of the Hefty Sword clan exploded. His soul was destroyed.
His corpse entered free fall and slammed into the ground. The experts of the Hefty Sword clan in the distance were all dumbfounded. Their eyes were filled with disbelief.
A paramount Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch ancestor of the Hefty Sword clan had perished in the blink of an eye like this?
“Retreat!”
The remaining Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch of the Hefty Sword clan immediately bellowed out. He fled desperately, frightened out of his wits.
Immediately, the people from the Hefty Sword clan scattered like birds. Only the middle-aged man who had spent his entire time watching Chen Shifang in the Observance Heaven City stood there blankly like he had lost his soul. He murmured subconsciously, “Impossible, this is impossible…”
“Don’t spare them, elder Nong!” Chen Shifang yelled out. A God Tier sword appeared in his hand, and he slashed it at the stunned middle-aged man behind him.
Elder Nong nodded. He formed a seal with his fingers. In the next moment, the stone golem suddenly vanished. It immediately erupted with the terrifying speed of an Immortal Emperor, chasing after the Immortal Monarchs of the Hefty Sword clan.
Very soon, a few deep booms rang out in the distance. The might of Immortal Emperors permeated the surroundings.
Clearly, the stone golem had already caught up to the Immortal Monarchs of the Hefty Sword clan.
After a few minutes, the stone golem returned to elder Nong’s side.
Meanwhile, Chen Shifang had managed to kill the middle-aged man who had watched him for all these years in Observance Heaven City.
He returned to elder Nong’s side and glanced at the stone golem rather fearfully. “Elder Nong, are the people from the Hefty Sword clan all dead?”
Elder Nong shook his head. A wisp of the senses of his soul was connected with the stone golem, so he knew exactly what it had done. “One of them used a secret technique to escape. The rest have all been slain.”
“Is it the Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch?” Chen Shifang was rather stern.
“It is indeed him, but don’t worry. With the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens’ current strength, a Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch is not enough to threaten us. C’mon, let’s return to the sect.”
Elder Nong and Chen Shifang immediately turned into two streaks of light and departed from there.
Soon after they had left, Jian Chen silently appeared there. He had equipped the Divine Armour of Heavenflight with all of his presence erased, seeming like he had escaped from the world and was untraceable.
He looked in the opposite direction that elder Nong and Chen Shifang had left in. His gaze seemed to pierce through the space there, bypassing the tremendous distance and seeing several tens of million kilometres away.
At this moment, a bloody old man lay powerlessly on a remote grassland several tens of million kilometers away. His presence was extremely feeble.
This old man was the Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch of the Hefty Sword clan that had managed to flee!
“All of the experts of the clan have perished. My Hefty Sword clan is truly done for now. How am I supposed to deter the past enemies of the clan alone…”
“Zhu Jian, Chen Shifang, since I managed to survive, I’ll use the remainder of my life to investigate the organisations you belong to. I may not be able to defeat that powerful golem, but I swear I will kill all of the people under your organisation.”
The last ancestor of the Hefty Sword clan ground his teeth with a sense of bone-deep hatred.
But at this moment, the space suddenly cracked open, and a glorious sword Qi seemed to cross through space and time, radiating with dazzling light. It directly slashed towards the old man from the Hefty Sword clan.
Spurt!
The sword Qi moved with alarming speed, shooting past like a streak of light. The Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch ancestor from the Hefty Sword clan could not even react. His head was already thrown high into the air with his soul destroyed.
A mighty Ninth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch had just perished like this in the wilderness!
Several tens of million kilometres away, Jian Chen looked away and sank into his thoughts. “Chen Shifang, so many years have passed already. Do you really still think of yourself as a disciple of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, or have you already been bought out by a certain organisation?”
“Though, I’ll know very soon whether you have any ulterior motives or not.”
Elder Nong and Chen Shifang shot through the air as two streaks of light, directly hurrying in the direction of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. The two of them moved extremely quickly, moving further and further away from the Observance Heaven City.
Several hours later, when they crossed over a lush mountain range, three figures appeared in their path.
They were three elderly women. They seemed extremely old. Almost all of their withered, silver hair had fallen off. They seemed like they already had a foot in the grave, elderly people at the brink of death.
The three old women sat in the air. Two of them focused on playing chess, while the third held a needle and some string, sewing away at a bright-red handkerchief.
However, when elder Nong and Chen Shifang noticed the three elderly women, they immediately became extremely stern.
The three elderly women did not hide their presence intentionally, so Chen Shifang and elder Nong could sense their strength very clearly. They were actually all Immortal Emperors.
It felt very much like a coincidence, such that it no longer felt like one. Three Immortal Emperors just happened to appear in their path, which left elder Nong and Chen Shifang with an ill omen.
“C’mon, let’s take a detour and go around them!” Without any hesitation, elder Nong was prepared to detour around them with Chen Shifang.
Even though he had the stone golem and the Great Spatial Sword Formation on him, he did not want any conflict with an Immortal Emperor unless he ran out of choices.
“The three of us have waited here for you for such a long time, yet you’re just going to leave without saying anything?” The old woman with the needle slowly raised her head and locked onto elder Nong and Chen Shifang.
Under her gaze, elder Nong and Chen Shifang immediately felt pins and needles. Chills ran through their bodies.
Just a single gaze from the old woman made the two of them feel like they had been thrown into an abyss of death, beyond salvation.
Elder Nong and Chen Shifang’s faces changed drastically. They immediately determined that the old woman was no regular Immortal Emperor.
“I am Nong Fugui. Greetings, three seniors!”
“I am Chen Shifang. Greetings, three seniors!”
Elder Nong and Chen Shifang clasped their fists and bowed carefully.
“There is no need to be so polite to the people who will claim your lives. After all, no matter how polite you are, it won’t change your fate in the end.” The old woman with the needle snickered.
“Three seniors, I come from the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens. May I ask how the two of us have offended the three seniors?” elder Nong asked sternly.
“Nong Fugui, the most senior member of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens, having witnessed the rise and fall of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens along the way. The three of us obviously know who you are. However, don’t take your identity so seriously. Your identity might make a few large organisations deliberate and develop qualms, but you’re just a mere Immortal Monarch in our eyes.”
“You haven’t offended us, but someone has offered up remuneration that we can’t turn down, asking us to take your life.”
“Nong Fugui, Chen Shifang, how do you plan on dying? Will you end it yourselves, or do you want me to do it personally?” Reaching there, the old woman with the needle grinned. She glanced at Nong Fugui and Chen Shifang in a chilling manner and said, “If you end it yourselves, you still have a chance to enter rebirth, but if I act personally, you won’t even have that chance anymore.”
