âThe girl from the Yin family? In the end, she couldnât bear the torment and ended up killing herself. Long Chen, you should be careful of the Yin family. They definitely wonât let this matter end just like this,â warned Shui Wuhen.
âSo what? Will they come to kill me in the first monastery?â asked Long Chen.
âThey wonât dare do something like that. But with the Yin familyâs temperament, it would be better for you to be careful. Do your best not to go out.â
âI wonât be going anywhere outside the monastery for a while. They wonât get any chance,â nodded Long Chen.
In this world, there were always some people stealthily spying on you. As soon as you made a slip-up, they would be like a poisonous viper, delivering a fatal blow with one attack.
Long Chen had not gotten that arrogant to ignore other peopleâs schemes, especially not the schemes of an ancient family.
Long Chen didnât have much of an understanding about ancient families, but from their disciplesâ arrogance, he could tell they had to have shocking foundations. What had been revealed to him was just the tip of the iceberg.
âThen has Han Tianyu died?â asked Long Chen.
âNo. I heard he was put in an important position within the Yin family and has obtained their best grooming,â answered Shui Wuhen.
âWhat? Yin Wushuang didnât bring him along with her?â Long Chen couldnât help being startled. That wasnât what he had predicted.
According to Yin Wushuangâs character, before she killed herself, she would definitely have Han Tianyu killed. They should have departed this world together.
âIâm not clear on the exact details. As for the Corrupt path, I have good news and bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?â laughed Shui Wuhen.
âLetâs hear the good news first,â said Long Chen without hesitation.
âThe good news is that Yin Luo died. You have one less opponent.â
âHe died? No way. How did he die?â
âWhen he attempted to break through to the Meridian Opening realm, he was attacked by his heart-devil, and his entire body exploded. A generationâs genius died just like that,â sighed Shui Wuhen.
Yin Luo was a genius on the same level as Han Tianyu, someone praised as a once-in-a-thousand-year genius. The Corrupt path had spent endless effort on raising him, even sacrificing a Xiantian expert to implant Xiantian blood in him.
But after encountering Long Chen, he had run into setback after setback. When he had advanced realms the last time, he had almost died to his heart-devil.
This time, when he had returned, he had only had half his body. Long Chen had become his nightmare.
The Corrupt pathâs experts had wanted to seal him for a hundred years, and once those hundred years were over, the memories of his heart-devil would be washed away. Currently, his mental state had become chaotic and was not suited towards cultivation.
But he had refused, swearing to personally cut off Long Chenâs head in order to wash away his humiliation. He had forcibly attacked the Meridian Opening realm, and thus died. Even as a member of the Righteous path, Shui Wuhen sighed emotionally.
âThatâs not any good news. His life or death has no meaning to me.â Long Chen shook his head.
The two were enemies only because of their different positions. Long Chen didnât really feel much hate towards him. On the contrary, Yin Luoâs death made him feel a slight sense of loss. Cultivation was just that cruel. The defeated would only be mercilessly eliminated.
However, Long Chen wouldnât foolishly sympathize with him. If he had been the one to be defeated, then Yin Luo wouldnât feel the slightest shred of sympathy towards him. Instead, he would probably flaunt his decapitated head.
âThatâs also true. The two of you are no longer on the same level. Chosen are nothing in the face of Celestials.â Shui Wuhen smiled slightly.
âWhat are Celestials?â Long Chen couldnât help being startled.
âItâs nothing.â Realizing she had made a slip of the tongue, Shui Wuhen hastily said, âAs for the bad news, youâve ended up on the Corrupt pathâs must-kill list. In other words, the Corrupt path will do anything they can to kill you. In truth, the reason I wanted to pull you into my Shui family is mostly because of this must-kill list.â
âIs the must-kill list so amazing?â asked Long Chen.
âThe only ones added to that list are the geniuses who the Corrupt path thinks can threaten them. They will do anything in order to kill those people. Furthermore, they wonât just attack you on their own. If they have to, they will also hire assassins to kill you,â said Shui Wuhen.
âAssassins? Isnât that just a profession in the secular world?â This was Long Chenâs first time hearing something like this.
âThe cultivation world also has assassins, and they are extremely mysterious. Their cultivation techniques and Battle Skills are all extremely bizarre, and used to assassinate others.
âPerhaps their true combat abilities are low, but assassinating across realms is something simple to them.
âIn fact, there are records of some of their geniuses succeeding in assassinating targets two realms above them. They are all a bunch of devils that hide in the darkness and specialized in taking lives.
âThe Bloodkill Hall is the organization of assassins. Just their name is enough to cause the entire world to shiver.â Shui Wuhenâs expression turned a bit grave.
A head-on fight was not something to be afraid of. The most terrifying thing was those bizarre assassination techniques. Before you could even react, you would already be dead.
Those who had been targeted by the Bloodkill Hallâs assassins were mostly killed without the slightest ability to resist.
However, Long Chen wasnât afraid of them. His intuition was far beyond ordinary. Anyone who had hostility towards him would be sensed immediately. It was very difficult for them to get close to him.
âIâll pay more attention,â nodded Long Chen.
âGood. This is just my guess, but since you are only at the Bone Forging realm, they probably wonât hire the Bloodkill Hallâs assassins yet.
âBut itâs still best to be careful. All you need to do is pay more attention. The Bloodkill Hallâs assassins also wonât easily attack.
âAs long as you are within the monastery, you should be safe. But if you go out, you should first tell me, understand?â said Shui Wuhen.
âOther than Huo Wufang, Yin Luo, and Yin Wushuang, Iâve also made some inquiries about Hua Biluo. That girl only woke up once she was stealthily sent home by Sha Qitian.
âThe Hua family is extremely pleased with this matter, and I heard they ended up bestowing quite a few rewards on that girl. Sheâs currently cultivating hard.
âBut there is one matter that is a bit thorny. I heard you ended up killing a disciple from the Heaven Splitting Divine Sect?â Shui Wuhen frowned.
âCorrect. He wanted to kill me, but I killed him in the end,â said Long Chen.
âWhere did you learn the first style of Split the Heavens?â asked Shui Wuhen.
Long Chen explained how he had obtained it within the imperial capital in detail. He didnât hide anything.
âDo you know why the disciple from the Heaven Splitting Divine Sect would attack you?â asked Shui Wuhen.
âTo take my treasures?â
âYes, taking your treasures is one aspect. But the real reason is he suspected there was an even greater secret on your body. That was why he attacked you.
âYou probably donât know, but the Heaven Splitting Divine Sect has two powerful techniques they rely on. One is the nine styles of Split the Heavens, while the other is the Battle God Sacred Canon.
âTheir Battle God Sacred Canon is a cultivation technique that is as famous as the Xuantian Dao Sectâs Xuantian Record. Those are priceless treasures that were passed down from the immortal era.
âHowever, our Xuantian Record only contains Dao mysteries, and it is incredibly profound. It is all-encompassing and yet incredibly deep. It is not a cultivation technique or a Battle Skill. It is something that can only be comprehended by those with great wisdom.
âAs for the Battle God Sacred Canon and Split the Heavens, they complement each other. They are a full set, and without studying the Battle God Sacred Canon, it is impossible to use Split the Heavens.
âThat is why he suspected you were lying. Even if you hadnât had any treasures, he still would have killed you. Iâm telling you these secrets only for you to know. You canât tell anyone else.
âThe Battle God Sacred Canon is complete, while Split the Heavens has become damaged. The first six styles still exist, but the final three have disappeared from this world.
âThatâs why the Heaven Splitting Divine Sectâs disciples will go to all the various secret realms to test their luck, to see if they can find the portion that has disappeared.
âThat disciple suspected you had the complete nine styles of Split the Heavens, which is why he wanted to kill you. That misunderstanding really was large,â sighed Shui Wuhen.
âThen what will they do?â asked Long Chen.
âThe Heaven Splitting Divine Sect is a bunch of domineering madmen who donât talk reason. If they knew that you had learned the first style of Split the Heavens and could even use it, they would definitely have you hand over your cultivation technique,â said Shui Wuhen.
âThey shouldnât even think of such a thing. If they dared, then unless they kill me, I will plague them for an eternity,â said Long Chen icily.
They werenât even able to protect their own Battle Skill, causing it to spread, and now they wanted someone else to hand over their cultivation technique? Were they dropped on their heads as children?
They wanted the Nine Star Hegemon Body Art? Keep dreaming. If they really dared try something like this, Long Chen wouldnât mind undergoing his tribulation at their home every time he advanced.
âYou donât need to worry too much about this either. The Heaven Splitting Divine Sect isnât located in this region, and they wonât necessarily learn about this news. Iâm just telling you this so youâre prepared on the off-chance they appear,â consoled Shui Wuhen.
Although that was what she said, she was extremely worried inside. The Heaven Splitting Divine Sect was an enormous sect on the same level as the Xuantian Dao Sect. Their inheritance stretched back countless years.
Furthermore, they were extremely domineering and hard to talk with. The Xuantian Dao Sect definitely wouldnât face off against the Heaven Splitting Divine Sect for just one disciple.
But the one thing that comforted her was that those disciples in the secret realm were unaware of the Heaven Splitting Divine Sectâs existence.
Those smaller sects wouldnât know about the Heaven Splitting Divine Sectâs matters, so she could only pray this news wouldnât reach there. Otherwise, a great catastrophe would befall Long Chen.
âDuring this time, you should just peacefully cultivate in the first monastery. If you have any problems, you can find the assistant monastery head. Tomorrow, Iâll leave for the Xuantian Dao Sect to handle some things. Remember to be more well-behaved for me. Donât cause any trouble.â
After Shui Wuhenâs repeated warnings, Long Chen left her room, his mood a bit heavy and also a bit angry. Fuck, why are there so many spears pointed at me?
âIâll just focus on cultivation right now. Whoever wants to die can come!â Long Chen clenched his teeth and stepped onto the transportation formation that would send him back to the first monastery.
