CHAPTER 289: CHAPTER 267 THE GREAT CATASTROPHE BEGINS!【2 IN 1】

At this moment.

The middle-aged man with a Purple Gold Crown’s eyes flickered with murderous intent.

A person capable of reversing and slaying those in the Nirvana realm from the True Self Realm, such a feat has never been seen throughout the ancient histories!

If this person does not meet an untimely end, reaching the pinnacle of the Great Longevity Realm in the future is probably just a matter of time, and he might even become the youngest Great Longevity ever recorded!

Without needing to think, he could guess that both the Celestial Saint Palace and the Immortal Ascension Sect have probably already started preparing to recruit Chen Zhixing into their lineage, regardless of the cost.

And once Chen Zhixing enters either the Celestial Saint Palace or Immortal Ascension Sect, his chances of dying prematurely will be minuscule.

The Immortal Tao Lineage definitely wouldn’t allow Chen Zhixing to encounter another chance for a covert assassination like today.

And once Chen Zhixing steps into the Great Longevity Realm, if he was to settle today’s account...

The middle-aged man with a Purple Gold Crown felt a chill in his heart.

Not to mention whether Chen Zhixing will learn the truth and seek revenge in the future after stepping into the Great Longevity Realm.

Even now, if the Taoist Lord of Daluo Taoist Lands knew that the old man in filthy clothes who attempted to assassinate Chen Zhixing was sent by him, he certainly wouldn’t let him off easily.

A future Great Longevity’s importance far surpasses his own!

The often callous Taoist Lord is very likely to choose to sacrifice him to gain Chen Zhixing’s favor.

Thus.

At this moment, the man with the Purple Gold Crown stared intently at Consort Long, his five fingers continuously tightened.

"The matter of assassinating Chen Zhixing is known only to you and me. As long as I kill you, then everything can be pretended as if it never happened..."

The middle-aged man with the Purple Gold Crown showed a cold smile.

With his five fingers continuously exerting strength, Consort Long’s soul body began to gradually dim, showing faint signs of fragmentation.

"You... you think that if you kill me, then you... will really be free of all troubles?"

Consort Long struggled to utter a sentence.

"Hmm?"

The middle-aged man with a Purple Gold Crown squinted his eyes, slightly loosening his grip.

"What do you mean?"

Consort Long gasped heavily, a smile appearing on her face: "Do you remember the Valley Master of Medicine King Valley when I came to see you? Guess... why is he not here today?"

The man with the Purple Gold Crown didn’t reply but seemed to faintly guess something in his heart.

Consort Long’s smile grew even wider: "If you kill me, all the conversations we had today will spread throughout the entire East Profound Domain tomorrow."

"Tsk tsk, an elite figure of the Immortal Tao Lineage resorted to such despicable means, sending someone to assassinate a brilliant star."

"Can you guess how the world will react? How will that Taoist Lord respond?"

With these words.

The middle-aged man with a Purple Gold Crown’s face turned extremely gloomy.

"Are you threatening me?" The middle-aged man’s voice was icy, forcing words out from his throat, his entire presence radiating extreme danger.

Around him, terrifying phenomena appeared with stars vanishing and galaxies drying up.

"It’s not a threat."

Consort Long shook her head, smiling: "I just want to tell you, dear friend, we are already grasshoppers tied on the same rope, no matter who falls, the other won’t fare well."

The middle-aged man didn’t speak but his face showed clouded emotions.

"Continue." He spat out three words.

Seeing his reaction, Consort Long let out a sigh of relief.

She knew.

Her life was temporarily safe.

"Purple Gold King, I think we shouldn’t lose our composure just yet."

Consort Long took a deep breath, gradually regaining her calm from a chaotic state of mind.

After all, she was one of the consorts of the Ancient Immortal Dynasty’s emperor.

She had seen too much grand spectacle to be easily shaken.

"As you said, only heaven and earth know about this, you know and I know."

"As long as we both stay silent, even if Chen Zhixing suspects you, he wouldn’t dare react."

Pausing for a moment.

Consort Long’s thoughts became clearer, and she continued: "Chen Zhixing seems strong but in reality, to you, Purple Gold King, his strength lies in the future, not the present."

"And the future is still a long way off. We’ll have no lack of opportunities to intercept him again."

As her words ended.

The man with the Purple Gold Crown interrupted her, his face full of impatience, with a sarcastic tone:

"Opportunity? Do you think after such a calamity, Chen Zhixing will leave an opportunity for others to assassinate him?

Or do you believe once he joins another Immortal Tao Lineage, that the lineage won’t realize someone wants to kill him and will use all resources to protect him?"

The man with the Purple Gold Crown chuckled and then shifted his tone: "To take a thousand steps back, Chen Zhixing in the True Self Realm could already reverse and kill those in Nirvana. Who can assassinate him once he enters Nirvana? Are we sending someone at the Peak Realm?"

"But there are only a handful of people at the Peak Realm in the world, who can hide their identity?"

Consort Long fell into silence.

Clearly.

She hadn’t thought that deeply.

The man with the Purple Gold Crown took a deep breath, his gaze flickering:

"Chen Zhixing has grown into a formidable presence, wanting to kill him is no longer easy!"

"The best way to eliminate him is if you give me the Jade Seal from the Ancient Immortal Dynasty so I can inherit the legacy of the Immortal Dynasty’s ruler, and step into the Great Longevity Realm as soon as possible!"

"Once I step into Great Longevity, I can take control of Daluo Taoist Lands!"

"At that time, killing Chen Zhixing would be a matter of ease!"

Upon hearing this.

Consort Long’s face showed signs of hesitation and struggle.
