Chapter 769: Chapter 769: Joint Ambush and Assassination of Zhu Fei

Zhu Fei saw that, in front of him, there were already more than ten Cultivators who had appeared.

Their bodies radiated vast auras, and when their eyes opened and closed, different traces of the Dao flickered within, showing that most of these people’s cultivations were above the Transcendance Tribulation Stage.

However, these were not the most surprising things to Zhu Fei; what shocked him the most was that among these people in front of him, there were actually several whom he once considered "acquaintances."

Even though he had never met a few of them, the garments they wore were precisely the Sect uniforms that Zhu Fei was familiar with.

They were from the Shushan Sword Sect, Wantian Sect, and the Sky Burning Palace, among which Yu Ming Fairy of the Wantian Sect and Elder Lihuo of the Sky Burning Palace were the most familiar and left the deepest impression on Zhu Fei.

"Tsk tsk, truly impressive measures have been taken just to deal with me, a mere Tribulation Crossing Practitioner. I never expected that you would even call upon my ’old friends’ of the past. This really makes me feel terribly frightened."

Zhu Fei’s mouth pronounced "terribly frightened," but his face clearly showed not a hint of fear, his lips instead curving into a faint sneer.

Located at the forefront of the crowd, wearing a purple and blue robe and donning a splendid crown, the expression of Sky Sea Pavilion Master Duan Chenggong was exceptionally stern.

He fixed his gaze tightly on Zhu Fei, narrowed his eyes, and coldly said, "Zhu Fei, I know that you now possess the strength to confront a Great Success Earth Immortal head-on, even to the point of killing one.

Therefore, I will not underestimate you, nor will I let you continue to grow unchecked; today marks the moment when both of us will settle our grudges once and for all. Do you have anything else to say?"

"Oh, it seems that you must have known about my whereabouts two days ago, right?"

Zhu Fei suddenly narrowed his eyes, returning the cold gaze to Sky Sea Pavilion Master Duan Chengong, and continued, "Let me guess, what exactly is going on here?"

Zhu Fei raised a finger and tapped his forehead, then with a smile, he said, "If I’m not wrong, your son, Duan Fengtai, must have informed you about my situation right from the first day he saw me, right?

But what he didn’t expect was that you, as his father, after learning about my situation, did not rush to Wantong City immediately but instead turned to start contacting other forces bearing enmity against me, hoping to kill me with a single strike.

And because of this, you acted slower, ultimately leading your son and the Elders of your Pavilion to die by my hand.

Duan Pavilion Master, I must say I’m rather impressed by you. Your vision and sense of the bigger picture are much stronger than your incompetent son, able to distinguish between what’s important and what’s trivial. It’s just a pity..."

As he spoke, Zhu Fei did not continue but instead showed a regretful shake of his head.

Everyone present could see that Zhu Fei was blatantly taunting Duan Chengong.

A flicker shone in Duan Chenggong’s eyes, but his expression grew even darker.

Admittedly, what Zhu Fei said was true. Duan Chenggong’s initial decision not to lead Sky Sea Pavilion’s forces to descend upon the Central State World immediately to ambush Zhu Fei was indeed one of the reasons his son died at Zhu Fei’s hands.

As the current Sky Sea Pavilion Master, Duan Chenggong also had his own considerations.

Even though he heard from Duan Fengtai about the precious treasures on Zhu Fei, the matter was best kept secret.

But Duan Chenggong knew even clearer that with the strength Zhu Fei had shown outside Eternal Night City, it would be extremely difficult for them from Sky Sea Pavilion to kill Zhu Fei alone.

Instead of coveting the treasures on Zhu Fei and thus possibly letting such a formidable enemy escape from their own hands, they decided it would be better to join forces with others in besieging Zhu Fei.

As long as they from Sky Sea Pavilion could dominate the situation at that time and offer some face to the other Sects, they believed they would still be able to secure the first pick of Zhu Fei’s possessions.

Unfortunately, Duan Chenggong calculated everything but did not anticipate that his son and the Elder would die at Zhu Fei’s hands before they arrived.

And this was precisely the main reason Zhu Fei had just made those taunting remarks toward Duan Chenggong.

Seeing Duan Chenggong’s increasingly ugly expression, a young man standing next to him wearing a moon-colored white robe, whose demeanor was quite refined and scholarly, suddenly let out a heavy snort.

"Zhu Fei, at this point, you still dare to spout nonsense in front of us; do you really think you can escape from our hands today?"

The one speaking was the current Wuya Immortal Palace Master, Wuya Heavenly Lord.

Suddenly, he took a step forward, and the image of a grand and magnificent palace emerged above his head, with dragons and peacocks circling around it, emitting an incredibly vast and profound aura.

In a haze, all Zhu Fei’s paths of retreat seemed to be completely sealed off.

At the same time, the current Sect Masters from Shushan Sword Sect, Wantian Sect, and Sky Burning Palace also held a High Grade Dao Artifact Magical Treasure in hand, forming a layer of confined space on the outskirts around Zhu Fei, adding another barrier for Zhu Fei’s escape.

Zhu Fei looked at the actions of these people in front of him, and the ridicule that was originally on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a hint of icy indifference.

"Shu Mountain Sword Sect Master, Wantian True Monarch, Sky Burning Palace Master, I originally did not intend to pursue our past grudges, but your actions today have forced my hand. No matter what, all of you must stay behind today!"

Zhu Fei’s words caused the faces of the Shu Mountain Sword Sect Master and the others to change slightly.

To be honest, the Shu Mountain Sword Sect Master and the others had never expected that Zhu Fei, who they once considered an ant, had now grown to such a terrifying extent.

This made them feel frightened and uneasy, but it also filled them with immense shame.

After all, not everyone in this world can easily accept when roles have been reversed.

When Duan Chenggong of Sky Sea Pavilion extended an invitation to the Shu Mountain Sword Sect trio to join forces in ambushing Zhu Fei, they almost didn’t think twice before directly setting out with their Sect’s treasures to meet up with Duan Chenggong and the others.

Now, as the Shu Mountain Sword Sect Master and others looked at Zhu Fei, whose eyes were gradually filling with killing intent, an inexplicable chill crept into their hearts.

Especially Elder Lihuo, whose physical body had been destroyed by Zhu Fei and who had now ascended to the Early Tribulation, was unable to maintain his composure and immediately spoke out:

"Zhu Fei, you once ordered your allies of the True Dragon race to slaughter our Human Clan Cultivators. That act itself was already a heinous crime against our ways, and now, you’re attempting to resist our judgment against you, which adds yet another sin. A traitor like you who colludes with foreign races and endangers our own, deserves death by everyone’s hands. What more do you have to say?"

Hah, if brute force won’t work, you want to talk about righteousness with me?

Zhu Fei’s lips curled into a sneer of disdain, his eyes suddenly sharp as he stared down Elder Lihuo, his voice coldly uttered:

"What are you? What right do you have to question me? Scram!"
