Chapter 1634: Chapter 1324: If There’s a Reckoning, It Won’t Be for Just One
Feeling the vitality within his body being severed instantly, Jia Wenrui’s face showed an expression of disbelief.
"This... how is it possible..."
Poof...
Jia Wenrui spat out a mouthful of blood, and his body slowly fell.
Seeing Jia Wenrui being killed, the Heavenly Immortal next to him also realized that the person in the distance was not someone he could withstand, and he immediately prepared to flee.
However, Lu Chen did not give him a chance, and he immediately mobilized his immortal power.
Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture!!!
The next moment, countless oil lamps appeared in the surrounding space, and the red Immortal Aura emitted from the lamps gathered together to form a Red Silk, which quickly entangled that Heavenly Immortal. The Heavenly Immortal tried everything to break free from the Red Silk, but the Red Silk only tightened further.
Lu Chen instantly appeared next to the Heavenly Immortal and said with the Immortal Slaying Sword pointed at his head, "If you want to die, you can try to break free."
Upon hearing this, the Heavenly Immortal knew they were utterly defeated, so he said, "Don’t kill me, I surrender!"
Lu Chen then said to Lu Zhengze, "The war is over, we can clean up the battlefield now."
Lu Zhengze then loudly announced over Purple Moon City, "Jia Wenrui is dead, and those who surrender will not be killed!"
Upon hearing this, the army of Purple Moon City instantly collapsed, and White Feather City successfully took over Purple Moon City.
This is how wars between low-level cities are: as long as one side’s high-end combat power is defeated, the war is over.
Lu Chen looked at the Heavenly Immortal in front of him, still controlled by the Divine Light Thousand Lamp Scripture, and then asked, "I ask, you answer. If you dare lie, I’ll use the Soul Searching Technique!"
Lu Chen’s current strength was only at the Earth Immortal Realm, making it difficult to use the Soul Searching Technique and more likely to suffer a backlash. He was just intimidating this man.
However, Lu Yangqiu was indeed frightened. He had just seen how easily Lu Chen dealt with Jia Wenrui, and to him, there was no way this man could be merely at the Earth Immortal Realm.
It’s very likely he was hiding his true strength, as there are methods to conceal one’s aura or realm in this world.
Moreover, this was someone possessing a Heaven Rank Immortal Sword, so how could he be an ordinary person?
Lu Yangqiu quickly said, "My lord, you may ask, I will tell you everything I know!"
Lu Chen asked, "Which king of the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty does Jia Wenrui belong to?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yangqiu was taken aback. He hadn’t expected this person to ask this question right away, knowing that Jia Wenrui had only secretly pledged allegiance to King Anyuan a short time ago. How could this man know?
Seeing Lu Yangqiu not answering directly, Lu Chen said, "What? You don’t want to talk?"
At this point, Lu Chen pretended as if he was ready to use the Soul Searching Technique. After regaining his composure, Lu Yangqiu quickly said, "My lord, I will tell you, it is King Anyuan. Just a few years ago, Jia Wenrui pledged allegiance to King Anyuan."
Lu Chen replied, "Purple Moon City is a city close to the Chaotic Sea. It lacks resources and talent, so why would King Anyuan want it?"
Lu Yangqiu hesitated for a moment but eventually said, "Jia Wenrui discovered that the Chen King seemed to have returned to White Feather City, so he used this intelligence to gain the opportunity to pledge allegiance to King Anyuan. King Anyuan had him continue monitoring White Feather City from Purple Moon City."
After hearing Lu Yangqiu’s answer, Lu Chen finally understood why the events from billions of years ago were still being talked about: someone was indeed trying to use another to do their dirty work.
King Anyuan’s current spread of this information was a clear reminder that the reason he was besieged by major forces was caused by Lu Jingfu. The debtor must be found, so go trouble Lu Jingfu.
Lu Chen chuckled, attempting to use another to do one’s dirty work without fearing it might backfire one day.
He returned this time not just to eliminate Lu Jingfu. After all, those who participated in the siege back then weren’t solely Lu Jingfu. Most of the kings of the Tianxia Immortal Dynasty were involved.
After all, he was once an Immortal King and a significant threat to the position of the Immortal Dynasty Master. His brothers and sisters used all their powers to eliminate him.
The reckoning could not be directed at one person alone.
Lu Chen then employed a Sealing Array to seal Lu Yangqiu’s immortal power and had him locked away.
After finishing all this, Lu Chen went to the side of Lu Zhengze and Liao Xiaoshuang, who were both severely injured.
Without hesitation, Lu Chen used Life Force to help the two recover physically.
However, merely using Life Force was quite limited in repairing their bodies. They were approaching their limits, and their Divine Souls were already damaged, making it ineffective to simply infuse Life Force.
Lu Chen thought to himself that higher-tier restorative Immortal Laws would be beneficial. Although his Evergreen Longevity Technique stored within the Chaos Beast was a Holy Tier Cultivation Technique, it was not even a low-tier Immortal Law in the Tianyan Immortal Domain.
Lu Chen then asked Lu Zhengze and Liao Xiaoshuang, "How are you both feeling?"
In unison, the two responded, "Thank you, Great King!"
Lu Chen pondered for a moment and then said, "I am now able to refine Heavenly Grade Elixirs. When I have the Elixir Recipe for a Realm Breaking Pill that can help Heavenly Immortals break through, I will immediately refine it for you, aiding you in your breakthrough."
Hearing this, the two were momentarily stunned, then became excited.
If Lu Chen were truly able to refine Heavenly Grade Elixirs, then with a Heavenly Grade Breaking Realm Pill, they would have hope of surpassing their limits.
However...
Finding a Heavenly Grade Breaking Realm Pill recipe is not so simple. If such a recipe were available, the Tianyan Immortal Domain would not have most Immortals stuck at the Heavenly Immortal level.
Moreover, even possessing a Heavenly Grade Breaking Realm Pill doesn’t guarantee a breakthrough, as any realm breakthrough carries risks.
Nonetheless, Lu Chen being able to refine Heavenly Grade Elixirs already gave them hope, and their next step was to find the recipe for a Heavenly Grade Breaking Realm Pill.
Lu Zhengze then asked, "Great King, King Anyuan already knows of your return. Should we consider relocating from White Feather City?"
Lu Chen pondered for a moment. Although King Anyuan hadn’t yet spread the news of his return to the Tianyan Immortal Domain, there was no telling when he might suddenly inform others.
King Anyuan hoped for a deadly confrontation between him and Lu Jingfu, so someday he might inform Lu Jingfu of his return. Once Lu Jingfu knew he was back, fearing retaliation, he would surely send troops to attack, possibly even joining forces with Tianyan Immortal Domain’s Super Forces against him once more.
But...
Currently, he hasn’t regained his full strength yet. If King Anyuan exposed his return to Lu Jingfu now, it wouldn’t achieve the purpose of using another to do one’s dirty work.
So, it’s likely that King Anyuan won’t reveal this news any time soon.
Thinking of this, Lu Chen said, "We currently have nowhere else to go, so let’s continue staying in White Feather City."
