Chapter 2635: Chapter 2655: Testing, Decision Making

The Phoenix Fire Spirit, once lost, was regained, bringing great joy to Lin Chen.

The Phoenix Fire Spirit was hard-won by Lin Chen. The Quasi-Saint Luo Hong Pill went to great lengths for it, which speaks volumes of its worth.

It did not exhibit its destructive power capable of obliterating heaven and earth because it was still in a growth phase.

Initially, when Lin Chen took out the Phoenix Fire Spirit, he had agreed with Zhen Liuxue that it was only a loan and needed to be returned. Who would have thought that such a formidable Lüxian Formation could be broken so easily?

It wasn’t that the Lüxian Formation wasn’t formidable, but Sidao Wang plus Pang Yuanzhen’s Sky-Swallowing Altar was far too terrifying.

Lin Chen had thought the Phoenix Fire Spirit was lost, only to unexpectedly have it return—certainly a pleasant surprise.

Hastening to secure the Phoenix Fire Spirit, the people set out for the Extreme West.

In Snow Wind City, Yue Chengtian finally found his mother, and to Lin Chen’s slight astonishment, Yue Chengtian’s mother was no ordinary person but, in fact, the City Lord of Snow Wind City.

Snow Wind City was a subordinate to Ice and Snow City, and the City Lord of Snow Wind City, being one of the Myriad Immortal Hall’s Immortal Monarchs, naturally possessed the peak strength of a Superior Prime Daluo Immortal.

Lin Chen and Shang Wenyin did not enter Snow Wind City. After all, it was a force under the Myriad Immortal Hall, and should their cover be blown, wouldn’t that be like entering the tiger’s den?

The two left Yue Chengtian behind, agreed on a meeting time, and headed straight to Ice and Snow City.

Outside Ice and Snow City, Lin Chen’s avatar swaggered to the entrance and called out, "Envoy of the Myriad Immortal Hall demands an audience with Lord Qiu; I have a secret order to convey!"

Lin Chen threw out an Order of Ten Thousand Immortals token, and the guards at the entrance, upon seeing it, hurried to report.

Before long, Qiu Wushuang’s graceful figure appeared, looking at the masked man at the entrance with a trace of doubt in her eyes.

"I am Qiu Wushuang, Mr. Envoy, please come in."

Lin Chen calmly stated, "Lord Qiu, follow me; I have a secret order to convey."

Lin Chen dropped those words and turned to leave.

Qiu Wushuang frowned slightly and instructed her people, "You stay here; I will return shortly."

Deputy City Lord Yuan Qiuhong transmitted a message, "Sect Master, after our city was sealed, such a big incident occurred. Could it be that someone from above has been sent to hold us accountable?"

Qiu Wushuang felt a heaviness in her heart as well, "Good fortune need not be avoided, and misfortune cannot be avoided. I’ll see what’s going on. Even if there is a problem, it’s my problem and has nothing to do with Ice and Snow City. Should something happen to me, you take over as Acting City Lord and look after Ice and Snow City."

Yuan Qiuhong’s gaze was filled with concern, but she held her tongue.

Qiu Wushuang stepped forward, hearing Yuan Qiuhong’s voice in her mind: "If the Hall Master really blames you and holds you accountable, then just run, Lord. The world is vast and you can go anywhere, don’t worry about Ice and Snow City, I’ll take good care of it."

Qiu Wushuang paused for a moment, didn’t look back, and continued to move forward.

Lin Chen led Qiu Wushuang away from Ice and Snow City; they landed on a hilltop and turned around to face Qiu Wushuang.

Qiu Wushuang’s expression was solemn, "Mr. Envoy, by whose order do you come?"

Lin Chen altered his voice, sounding both stern and authoritative, "Lord Qiu, are you aware of your crimes?"

Qiu Wushuang’s expression slightly changed, "What crime have I committed?"

Lin Chen spoke sternly, "You conspired with your Senior Sister, Zhen Liuxue, to orchestrate the Black Moon calamity, resulting in the deaths of War Hall Master Jiang Wanchun, the Demon Dragon City Lord, the Lord of Wind Thunder City, and numerous other city lords and key figures. Are you still going to pretend ignorance with me here?"

Qiu Wushuang felt a sudden jump in her heart; she had known about this news for some time, but the Myriad Immortal Hall had never sent anyone, leaving her anxious for a long time.

The Myriad Immortals Hall Master personally issued the Order of Ten Thousand Immortals, putting Zhen Liuxue on the wanted list, which made Qiu Wushuang even more anxious.

Anxious about Zhen Liuxue’s safety, worried about the Myriad Immortal Hall settling scores with Ice and Snow City, and hating her own powerlessness and weakness, it could be said that during this period, she had been living in torment, even losing some weight.

Qiu Wushuang gritted her teeth and said, "I was not privy to this matter. Since my master passed away, I’ve not seen my Senior Sister."

Lin Chen asked coldly, "Really haven’t seen her?"

Qiu Wushuang replied decisively, "I really haven’t. Who are you representing in questioning me, the Hall Master or someone else?"

Lin Chen responded coldly, "The Hall Master asked me to inquire whether you wish for your Senior Sister to live or die."

Qiu Wushuang’s gaze shifted slightly, "Have you captured her?"

Lin Chen stared at Qiu Wushuang with an icy gaze, "The Hall Master personally took action, and with the assistance of Quasi-Saint Pang Yuanzhen of Lingxiao Gate, could she escape? Although Saint of Thieves saved her once when she was nearly dead, where could she possibly flee? In the end, she still fell into our hands."

Upon hearing that Zhen Liuxue almost died and ended up in the Myriad Immortal Hall’s custody, Qiu Wushuang’s face suddenly changed. She stared straight at Lin Chen, her voice trembling slightly, "Where is she now?"

Lin Chen spoke calmly, "We have already brought her here; she’s not far away. The Hall Master wants you to make a choice."

Qiu Wushuang’s lips were tightly pressed together, her face pale, "Choose what?"

Lin Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly, his voice dropping a few notches as if laced with deep mockery, "Either turn around and walk away, and we will execute her on the spot, or you Waste Cultivation, and in light of the deep sisterly affection between you, we will spare her life!"
