Chapter 2305: Chapter 2325: It’s you again! You didn’t die?_1

Wu Jie?

Wu Jie certainly went to the Linglong Tower, keeping the injured Xuan He Zi company.

By now, Lin Chen had also figured out that the target of today’s assassination attempt was this offspring of the Three Sects.

Wu Ling Mountain’s Xuan He Zi, Taoism’s Xuanqing, and Buddhism’s Wu Jie—they were among the most outstanding of the second-generation disciples from the Three Sects, figures capable of shouldering the future of their respective orders.

To kill them was to extinguish the future of the Three Sects.

They could indeed select and train new excellent disciples, but could such an exceptional presence as theirs be replaced so easily?

Man in black and the White-haired Elder were both Daluo Initial Immortals, possessing unparalleled strength; yet Xuan He Zi and Wu Jie could withstand an attack from them and not die. Even though they were protected by powerful Magical Treasures given by their sects, this spoke volumes about their prowess.

Now that he understood their goal, Lin Chen didn’t mind throwing a wrench in their plans.

Besides, standing by and watching them die wasn’t something he could do without feeling guilty.

If they continued their killing, many more would die. If he could save the Three Sects’ offsprings earlier, that would amount to sabotaging their plan, rendering their persistence in battle meaningless.

If they stopped their assassination attempts, wouldn’t the remaining people live?

There were still quite a few here who could stand against them, so wasn’t it much easier to rescue people under these circumstances?

Although the man in black was temporarily blocked by Xuan Neng’s hand that crossed through the void, he was still paying attention to Wu Jie, after all, he was the target of their mission this time.

Wu Jie was struck down and fell into the sea, and then... disappeared!

The man in black’s eyes showed a moment of astonishment, then turned endlessly gloomy, full of vicious killing intent.

Wasn’t this exactly the same as when Xuan He Zi disappeared?

But wasn’t that person killed by himself?

His powerful Divine Sense plunged into the water once more, acting like a sieve, and swiftly detected that figure which had merged with the sea.

As silent and traceless as the sea, almost indistinguishable.

The familiar sensation confirmed for him once again, this was the one he had encountered before, who had suddenly self-destructed.

He didn’t die?

Just as he was about to strike at Lin Chen in the water, Lin Chen below him suddenly moved, speeding through the sea without causing the slightest ripple.

The White-haired Elder also noticed Lin Chen’s movement and angrily said, "Trying to flee?"

Just as the White-haired Elder was about to pursue Lin Chen, Kong Neng and the pale-faced Qing Yun Zi suddenly rushed over. Qing Yun Zi once again brought out the Godfall Altar, trapping the White-haired Elder inside it.

Kong Neng did not attack the White-haired Elder but instead turned to stand behind Qing Yun Zi, pouring a magnificent amount of spiritual power into him like a River, which Qing Yun Zi then directed onto the Godfall Altar.

The power of the Godfall Altar was extraordinary, and the White-haired Elder was instantly subdued, temporarily unable to divide their attention to attack Lin Chen.

Using this brief respite, Lin Chen sped along the seabed, quickly escaping the Divine Sense lock of the man in blue and the White-haired Elder.

In the Sea Fury Zone, the impact on Divine Sense was considerable; even as Daluo Initial Immortals, their Divine Sense was still obstructed past a certain distance.

Above the vast Ocean, battles were everywhere.

Lin Chen swept past the seabed, chasing to the north, where the Taoist group was fleeing.

Since Xuan He Zi and Wu Jie were individually targeted, Lin Chen believed there must be someone waiting for the fleeing Xuanqing.

After traveling hundreds of miles and guided by the powerful aftermath of battles in midair, Lin Chen found his target.

In the Sky, a group was surrounded layer by layer, with a mysterious masked female from the Sea Tribe leading many assassins in a siege.

Not all of them were attacking; they spread out in all directions, blocking all possible escape routes for the group and cutting off any chance of flight.

"Why resist to no avail? I’ve said it before, I only want Xuanqing. Hand him over, and you can live. But if you remain stubborn, then I must go through some trouble to kill you all."

The Taoist Elder Chong Xu Dao Ren shouted, "Are you from the Sea God Sect?"

The masked woman coldly replied, "You can think whatever you want. I just want the person. Will you give in or not?"

Chong Xu Dao Ren angrily retorted, "In your dreams!"

Stepping out of the crowd, Xuanqing with a solemn expression proposed, "Since they want me, then I shall stay behind. Let them go!"

Chong Xu Dao Ren reached out and grabbed Xuanqing’s arm, pulling him back and scolding, "Even if to die, it should be in front of me. Go back, prepare to break through!"

Xuanqing said with a bitter smile, "Martial Uncle, this is the Sea Fury Zone. Many techniques can’t be used here, and it’s difficult for us to escape. Instead of everyone dying together, better I die alone. Later, you can uncover the truth and avenge me."

Chong Xu Dao Ren said resolutely, "You are our Taoist legacy, carrying the future of Daoism. How can you die here? Rest assured, even if I have to die, I will save you!"

Chong Xu Dao Ren opened his hand, revealing a jade ruyi inscribed with runes emitting a Golden Light. Runes fell upon the void, quickly conjuring a colossal figure that extended into the void.

"Thirty-Second Generation Taoist Disciple Chong Xu calls upon the ancestor to possess me!"
