Qingcheng, dont do this. Zhuo Fans gone. Hes not here

Chu Qingcheng was frantic in her search and cried even as Shui Ruohua and Daner hugged her, tearing up at her pain.

The others shook their heads.

[This is called being obsessed]

Chu Qingcheng did not listen to reason, shaking her head and pointing at the flas.h.i.+ng ring with joy, Senior sister, hes still alive and here too. Just look, only we have this pair of rings, and they only react when the other is around. This is his keepsake. Hes definitely here

Chu Qingcheng was desperate in convincing everyone of this reality, but they only saw it as her lying to herself, wanting to believe with every fiber that Zhuo Fan was in this world.

Qingcheng, I may not know that ring, but we have scanned this place for a hundred miles around yet theres no one here but us.

Elder Du soothed.

Chu Qingcheng bit her lip, not giving up, No, hes close by. Its just that you cant find him. No one can find him with his skills. Only I, as his wife, know in my being that he is here

Thats enough, Chu Qingcheng!

Elder Ou shouted in anger, a vein popping on his forehead, Were Genesis Stage experts, yet youre saying we cant even find some brat? We can find something as small as an ant, let alone him. Since we did not find him, then he isnt here. How long are you going to continue this crazy act?

Glaring at him, Chu Qingcheng still called out Zhuo Fans name, Zhuo Fan, its me, your wife! Please come to me

Dont just stand there, take her away! Elder Ous patience was at an end as he stared at Wu Qingqiu.

Bobbing his head, he went to Chu Qingcheng with a sigh, Junior sister Qingcheng, theres something off about the ring, Im sure of it. Zhuo Fan is gone now and theres no way he can be here. Lets just get you back to Double Dragon Manor and get some rest.

No, the ring never lied to me! Hes here!

Struggling with all she had, Chu Qingcheng kept crying out, Zhuo Fan

In his sealed s.p.a.ce, Zhuo Fan gnashed his teeth and shut his eyes, even though tears gathered at the corners.

He knew he shouldnt have met her, because he could not take the parting

Qingcheng.

The heart prevailed in the end and Zhuo Fan spoke in a low tone.

All shuddered at the heavy tone, unable to overcome their shock. Chu Qingcheng was overjoyed, Zhuo Fan, is it really you? I knew youre alive!

Is Zhuo Fan actually alive?

The elders looked around frantically, With him alive, the case of the sects destruction has a solution!

Yet no amount of searching helped.

A laughter came then, Ha-ha-ha, three imps trying to scan with your souls in face of yours truly? How pitiful!

With a whoosh, black thunderflame erupted from that s.p.a.ce, as high as a kilometer and spreading for miles and miles.

The black thunderflame took the shape of a giant with golden eyes, the flame within like two erupting volcanoes.

The sheer dread coming off him slammed into the three Genesis Stage elders. They shuddered and felt like mere insects that could be stomped at any time.

T-this

All craned their necks to watch the black fire giant, feeling their knees going soft at its power.

Ye Lin fared no better despite knowing the truth behind it. He gulped.

[What is this? Did the Nine Serenities Sovereign descend?]

This power was at the level of his master and only the ten sovereigns wielded it.

[Everyone knows Nine Serenities Sovereign is missing so how can he suddenly be in the mortal domain?]

Ye Lin was too shocked to make any sense of it.

When a sacred beast inheritor was scared, much couldnt be said about the rest, looking white as paper and gasping for breath.

The three Genesis Stage elders were overcome with fear, looking at the huge face gazing at them with scorn, Ha-ha-ha, werent you great before, you weaklings? Did the cat get your tongue?

S-senior

Elder Dus shaky voice barely got a word out as he bowed, May I know who senior is?

The two golden b.a.l.l.s of fire flashed as he cackled, Ha-ha-ha, mistaking respect for fear. Ive heard this saying many times, but werent you three pipsqueaks, shouting about wanting to see me? You wont believe it until you see it, right? Well, here I am, do you believe it now?

Overlord Nine Serenities?

Sss~

The elders gasped in shock. Elder Ou, who had a.n.a.lyzed Overlord Nine Serenities power just now almost soiled his pants.

The sheer power rolling off this giant was enough to rob them of all of their courage.

They knew now Universal Righteous Sects demise wasnt made by borrowing power, but by unquestionable might.

Overlord Nine Serenities had never been seen before, but now they felt it all too well, the destructive power he wielded.

The trio fell to their knees on the spot, Senior, please forgive our foolish words of ignorance!

Ha-ha-ha, brats, do you take me for someone as petty as you?

The black giant mocked, The missy has gone against your words and contradicted you, yet you wanted to attack a helpless woman? Humph, who knows how p.i.s.sed off Id be over the last three hundred millenium if I were as petty as you.

Sss~

Gasping for the third time, they all looked in shock.

[Oh h.e.l.l, three hundred d.a.m.n thousand years?! What the h.e.l.l is he? Even the oldest sect in western lands is barely ten thousand years old, but this guy is three hundred times that?]

[For crying out loud, hes an old freak through and through. What Invincible Sword, hes nothing to this guy. No wonder hes so amazing and overpowered.]

[Wonder what stage hes at. Definitely above Genesis Stage.]

The trio broke out in sweat, scared to death from even moving.

Ignoring them, the black giant stared down at Chu Qingcheng with a sigh. He waved and a flickering ring floated down, Qingcheng, may I call you that? Is this what you were looking for?

The ring rested in Chu Qingchengs palm, staring at the keepsake belonging to Zhuo Fan.

This is Zhuo Fans

Chu Qingcheng looked at the giant, wanting to ask more but too afraid to know the truth.

The giant spoke, Child, forget about him. He wont be coming back.

Chu Qingchengs fists shook.

I had founded Devil Mountain three hundred thousand years ago, when no one could stand up to me!

Recalling ancient memories, the black giant spoke, But after two hundred thousand years, I grew tired, focusing on understanding Dao and entered seclusion, vanis.h.i.+ng from the world. As it happened, in my rare travels in between across the world, I have met with disciples worthy of note. Zhuo Fan is one such disciple.

To understand Dao, one must live in the world then rise above it. Most disciples do not roam the lands, but Zhuo Fan was still young and so I let him go before taking him back to dwell on the experiences. I thought the skills I pa.s.sed on to him were enough to safeguard him. But never have I imagined hed be tricked by some rotten people. This is life, this is fate

The black giant sighed in mourning.

The elders broke out in sweat.

[Its obvious now that it was revenge, but its not like we can do anything to him either.]

[Didnt you hear him? He was already at the top of the world three hundred thousand years ago, stopping all infighting before withdrawing. Hes on a different level than our petty wars.]

[All of western lands power wont be enough to even scratch him!]

[Not to mention Devil Mountain isnt made up of one man. Theres still plenty of disciples. If they come out, what would happen to the world?]

The elders were scared to death. Looking into this case any further would poke the hornets nest.

[Not even the Invincible Sword would be so stupid]
