Chapter 995 - 995 981 The Heart of Revenge

Chapter 995: Chapter 981: The Heart of Revenge Chapter 995: Chapter 981: The Heart of Revenge Ren Xiongbei couldn’t help but admire his own clever intelligence, having come up with such a plan.

Ren Haotian also breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time, within Immortal City Sect, with Jiang Ouyang dead and Su Zhanze dead too, it was a great opportunity for Ren Xiongbei. His main task was to stabilize the situation and use the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual to drive momentum, undoubtedly allowing the Immortal City Sect to get back on its feet. This was a significant opportunity. He calculated that if he could obtain the black volume, how great the transformation would be—his martial arts skills would certainly improve dramatically, and eventually, everything would change.

“My son, from now on, the Immortal City Sect will be entirely ours. After we return, we’ll carefully decipher the manual, and certainly, we will fully comprehend the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual.”

Ren Haotian had long since been beside himself with excitement.

“That’s why I’m saying, there’s no need to rush. When the time comes, Fang Ziren will have no choice but to suffer in silence. That guy is no good—I heard he’s been going around claiming that we stabbed the Qingxuan Sect’s Sect Leader to death. If you ask me, it’s he who killed Liu Yunzhi,” Ren Haotian ranted. Recently, Fang Ziren had been spreading rumors everywhere, alleging that his father had killed Liu Yunzhi. Fortunately, there was no evidence out there.

Ren Xiongbei, not knowing who really killed Liu Yunzhi, said, “Who would believe him? They don’t have any evidence.”

“But that guy speaks with such conviction, claiming we killed Liu Yunzhi over the Red Volume—he’s utterly deplorable, extremely vile. He deserves to practice until he goes insane,” Ren Haotian said.

Ren Xiongbei suggested, “Maybe it was Wan Shajiang from the Qingxuan Sect who killed him.”

“What, Wan Shajiang killed him?” Ren Haotian became puzzled.

It turned out that during the chaos, he had caught a glimpse of a figure, somewhat blurred, that looked like Wan Shajiang. He said, “I wasn’t seeing too clearly at the time, but it seemed like him.”

Ren Haotian exclaimed, “Father, you think he killed Liu Yunzhi to become Sect Leader?”

Ren Xiongbei replied, “It’s possible. This guy has always looked down on Liu Yunzhi. Suddenly, his father left, and Liu Yunzhi, like a chicken picking up grains, became the Sect Leader. If Liu Yunzhi remained, he would never have had a chance. So, by killing Liu Yunzhi, he could become Sect Leader—that’s the motive.”

Upon hearing this, Ren Haotian was stunned for a moment before saying, “Exactly, that’s it.”

“Either way, it’s none of our business.”

“I’m just worried that if they keep slandering us, it might eventually be taken as the truth.”

“I’m not afraid of them. Without evidence, as long as we get the complete Dragon Slaying Secret Manual and have enough time, their irrelevant talk won’t affect us,” Ren Xiongbei confidently stated.

Ren Haotian nodded slightly.

“We still need to be wary of those folks from the Immortal-Demon realm. They’ve lost all sentimentality now. It doesn’t matter who killed Liu Yunzhi—they can just bring up the robbery, and it’ll be clear that they could stoop to any low for the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual. Fang Ziren and his ilk can spread rumors all they want, claiming we killed Liu Yunzhi,” Ren Xiongbei ranted.

“Exactly, so when the time comes, we’ll let him be delighted and practice until he goes insane.”

Su Zhanze had escaped death but had become a monster. Half his face was nearly a pile of cow dung; he couldn’t bear to look into a bronze mirror. Each time he looked, it made him feel nauseated. With one slap, he shattered the bronze mirror and ranted, “Didn’t I say to not place mirrors in my room!”

Upon hearing the loud crash, Chen Yu hurriedly ran in and immediately apologized for her poor arrangement.

Only then did Su Zhanze calm down.

At that moment, someone outside said, “Xiang Zi is here.”

Xiang Zi was someone Su Zhanze had painstakingly, with much thought and considerable silver, arranged to be by Ren Xiongbei’s side.

Hearing this, Su Zhanze hastily said, “Let him in.”

Before long, Xiang Zi came in, with Chen Yu also present.

Xiang Zi reported, “It’s confirmed. Within a few days, Ren Xiongbei will certainly make a deal with Fang Ziren.”

After hearing this, Chen Yu commented, “Vice Sect Leader, I think, why must we allow them to trade? With our current abilities, and the Dragon Slayer Sword in our hands, annihilating them and seizing the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual from them is within reach.”

Yet Su Zhanze knew very well that although he could, with Ling Li and the others, use the might of the Dragon Slayer Sword to snatch the black and red volumes of the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual, such an act would definitely reveal the Dragon Slayer Sword. Once he wielded the Dragon Slayer Sword in the future, others would immediately know he was the culprit, bringing him unnecessary trouble. He said, “If you use the Dragon Slayer Sword to kill them, once the Dragon Slayer Sword emerges, won’t they all know that I’m the murderer?”

“If we kill them all without mercy, who will know?” Chen Yu persisted, “Neither Ren Xiongbei nor Fang Ziren are any good.”

Right, indeed they were no good. If it hadn’t been for Ren Xiongbei, he wouldn’t have been caught, wouldn’t have been blackmailed by Longhun, nor would Guo Yuqing have left him, and he would not have ended up in this state. And that Fang Ziren, treating him like a rabid dog and throwing him off the cliff, had almost turned him into a eunuch unable to be with women—this was all thanks to their ‘kindness.’

Every time he thought of this, the anger in his heart had nowhere to go, and he said, “You’re right, those two guys are really not any good, especially Ren Xiongbei, that hypocrite. I will make sure he falls from grace miserably, and everyone will see his true colors.” He had to come up with a good plan.

“Such scum deserves to die.” Chen Yu knew that the Dragon Slayer Sword was already in Su Zhanze’s hands, and Su Zhanze’s resurgence was only a matter of when, not if. Therefore, he could follow Su Zhanze with confidence, assured of a bright future.

“They do deserve to die, but I must make them fall from grace miserably and suffer a wretched death. To just kill them with one stroke of the sword would be letting them off too easily.” Su Zhanze, his face full of rage, especially when he touched his disfigured face, thirsted for bloodshed.

Chen Yu said, “I’ve contacted the best doctor, who can surely restore the Vice Sect Leader’s original appearance.”

“Understood.” Su Zhanze looked at Xiang Zi and said, “Xiang Zi, keep a close watch on them. Confirm their exchange time and location, and make sure there are no mistakes. Wait for my instructions if anything comes up.”

Xiang Zi nodded slightly and said, “Don’t worry, he trusts me completely right now since he doesn’t have many people by his side. I will inform you immediately once I have the time and location.”

Su Zhanze nodded slightly and said, “Don’t worry, when I return to Immortal City, I won’t forget about you all. You will all have a good future, and Immortal City will be ours.”

For Xiang Zi, his love for silver was second only to his gamble on his future, especially betting on the Dragon Slayer Sword. He believed that as long as he dedicated himself to Su Zhanze now, Su Zhanze would surely reward him well in the future.

Su Zhanze asked, “How are things over at Immortal City?”

Xiang Zi replied, “The rebuilding of Immortal City has been mostly entrusted to Yuan Jingxing. He is currently overseeing the project.”

“That’s right, with such a great opportunity to snatch the Dragon Slaying Secret Manual, how could they entrust it to Yuan Jingxing? The Ren father and son only make him do the hard work.” Su Zhanze then coldly asked, “What about Guo Yuqing?”

Upon hearing this, Xiang Zi answered, “She’s at Dragonfly Mountain. The Sect Leader of New City Sect sacrificed his life to obtain the Sky Mountain Snow Lotus and saved Guo Yuyun’s life. Soon, Qing’er will bring Yun’er back to Demon Palace City.”

Su Zhanze knew about the affair in Bell and Drum City and felt a touch of jealousy, surprised that the guy actually still had Qing’er in his heart. It was a shame that he, a hero, died young on Sky Mountain; it was as if Heaven had eyes after all.

However, he worried about how Qing’er would react upon seeing his current disfigured state. She had not forgiven him yet, and the thought frustrated him so much that he kicked the chair in front of him to smithereens, cursing, “Let’s see how long Ren Xiongbei and Fang Ziren can keep smiling.”

Chen Yu and Xiang Zi both stepped back.

Su Zhanze said, “Get going and keep a tight watch on them. Confirm when and where they will make the exchange.”

Xiang Zi quickly left.

Without completely ruining Ren Xiongbei and making him fall from grace, Su Zhanze would never be satisfied. He would not let go of any of those who had caused him such suffering and brought him to this state.

It was a pity that the guy was dead, though it was a fitting end.

The ship was directly ahead, and Cang Jianglong was also present, which somewhat surprised Ye Chen, who said, “I feel embarrassed to have you send me off.”

“It’s just that I happened to be passing by and thought to come take a look,” Cang Jianglong said.

“Hmm, such a large ship.”

“Yes, it will make a stopover at Immortal Medicine Island,” Cang Jianglong said.

Li Mo was taken aback and asked, “Isn’t it going directly to Sacred Spirit Island?”

“It’s common to pass by Immortal Medicine Island before heading to Sacred Spirit Island. Things like this happen all the time,” Cang Jianglong added, “With recent events at Sacred Spirit Sect, the South Sea has been quite unsettled. Pirates are a frequent sight, so you need to be extra careful.”

“There are pirates too?”

Cang Jianglong explained, “When Ke Yizhu was around, these pirates wouldn’t dare to stir up trouble. But since Ke Yizhu’s death, a vacuum has emerged. With Sacred Spirit Sect unable to handle their own affairs, naturally, no one attends to the pirates. All sorts of island masters are coming out to grab territory and loot, so it’s understandable.”

Li Mo glanced at Ye Chen.

Ye Chen smiled faintly and said, “Thank you for the warning.”

“What I’m saying is true. I’ve had two ships robbed already, and if this keeps up, I don’t know if I’ll dare to send people out to sea again,” Cang Jianglong said.

The horn signaling the ship’s departure sounded.

“Alright, thank you for your help.” Ye Chen bid farewell to Cang Jianglong and headed towards the ship.
