Chapter 1688: Chapter 1708: Professional Extinguisher of Families, Would You Like to Come?_1

"We’re not afraid of them having ulterior motives, as long as they can strike a blow against Heavenly Dao Alliance and benefit the Immortal Palace!"

Yao Xuanji said with a hint of a smile, "The more of such people, the better."

Lin Chen nodded in agreement.

This is just how different their respective positions are, and so is their approach to the same issue.

Although Lin Chen didn’t know Meng Kaihui, according to the tone in this anonymous letter, he suspected the Hall Master and others not because of his loyalty to the Immortal Palace, but for his own sake.

Not everyone among the high-rank officials of Devil Palace agreed to join the Heavenly Dao Alliance, but once the Hall Master had made a decision, opposition was futile, so they resigned themselves to it.

When the Immortal Palace’s Wanted Order was issued, it stirred up a great commotion, causing another conflict among the high-rank officials of the Devil Palace.

Like most of the sects that joined the Heavenly Dao Alliance, they know they can only choose one between the Heavenly Dao Alliance and Immortal Palace. If they choose wrong, they fall into an abyss of no return. Most of the high-rank officials in the Devil Palace do not wish to continue siding with the Heavenly Dao Alliance. They hope that the Hall Master could express his intention to quit the Heavenly Dao Alliance, after all, the Immortal Palace has stated that bygones could be bygones.

Despite many objections, Hall Master Feng Zhiyin insists on going his own way like a madman, suppressing others with threats to the Sect’s safety, and is even planning to relieve everyone of their duties and detain them within the Sect.

Vice Hall Master Meng Kaihui secretly contacted the Immortal Palace, narrating everything in detail, and attached a list that included those who firmly support the Heavenly Dao Alliance headed by Hall Master Feng Zhiyin.

Meng Kaihui hoped that the Immortal Palace could send people to "quell the rebellion" in Devil Palace, eliminate members of the Heavenly Dao Alliance led by Feng Zhiyin, correct the wrongdoing, and restore the brilliance of Devil Palace.

Meng Kaihui also stated that he and others are staunch supporters of Immortal Palace, irreconcilable with the Heavenly Dao Alliance, and willing to fight for the Immortal Palace and play the vanguard role against the Heavenly Dao Alliance.

It’s impossible that Meng Kaihui was unaware of the Devil Palace’s stance against the Immortal Palace within the Heavenly Dao Alliance. Then why has he never thought of tipping them off before?

Did he immediately report it after the Immortal Palace’s Wanted Order was released?

Perhaps the White-robed Envoy had promised many benefits to the Devil Palace, so even though they did not fully agree, they accepted it silently as there were benefits to be had. Now that the Immortal Palace has expressed its stance, and those who follow the Heavenly Dao Alliance are considered the enemies of the Immortal Palace, punishable by death, they start to panic. After the Hall Master dogmatically made the decision to stick to his way, they decided to eliminate the Hall Master to ensure their own safety.

In simple terms, for the current Devil Palace, some people led by the Hall Master insist on supporting the Heavenly Dao Alliance, while others led by Meng Kaihui believe more in the Immortal Palace, thinking that the Heavenly Dao Alliance will accomplish nothing.

Normally, everyone can eat, drink, and play together with each other, bragging and addressing each other as good brothers. But now, you want me to play for real and go up against the Immortal Palace?

This isn’t a joke, is it?

Absolutely not, for my own life, I have to be ruthless, would you all please die?

If the Hall Master is eliminated, who will be the next Hall Master?

Who else can it be if not Meng Kaihui?

After pondering for a bit, Lin Chen laughed and asked, "Who are you planning to send?"

Yao Xuanji stared at Lin Chen and said with a smile, "How would you like to take a trip and lead this operation?"

Lin Chen blinked in surprise, "Me? I’m just an Earth Immortal. Forget about the Fairies, even your Immortal Palace Guards are at least at True Immortal Level. If I’m in charge, would they obey me?"

Yao Xuanji laughed, "Forget about the True Immortal Level guards, even if they’re Fairies, who among them has killed as many Fairies as you?"

Lin Chen laughed and said, "My best days are behind me, and I’m as useless as an worn-out crossbow. Except for the very first Fairy I killed, whom I killed using the Sword Qi gifted by a Great Power, the others were all heavily injured by the likes of Senior Ao before I could finish them off. This doesn’t count as my own ability."

"If that isn’t your ability, then what is it?"

Yao Xuanji smiled, "Do you know why I want you to lead the team?"

Lin Chen shook his head, "Do you want me to lead the team to gain some merits?"

"No, merits may be necessary for others in the Immortal Palace, but they are totally unnecessary for you."

A playful look flickered in Yao Xuanji’s eyes, "Didn’t you forget the story you told me, the Professional Extinguisher of Families?"

Professional Extinguisher of Families?

Lin Chen chuckled, "Had you not brought it up, I would almost have forgotten it. In the past, I indeed annihilated quite a few Cultivation Families and sects, but with my current strength, I can’t annihilate any. If someone provokes me, I have to run away."

"But you have rich experience."

Yao Xuanji chuckled, "You don’t need to handle the fighting. I think you are experienced in handling these things because people of Immortal Palace, being secluded from the world for a long time, can be a bit awkward and not very good when dealing with outsiders."

"During your period of Closed Door Cultivation, many strong people have come to Immortal Palace. Now, Immortal Palace is not short of manpower like when you first came. On the contrary, we have a lot of people now, and a strong Combat Power. Moreover, Grandpa Cao will go with you. With his presence and support, even if others have some ideas, they won’t dare to do anything and will actively cooperate with your orders..."
