Chapter 797: Chapter 787 Demon-Annihilating General

When the guards of the Five Immortals Hall burst into the Grand Leader’s silent cultivation bedroom in a swarm, they were dumbfounded.

There was no trace of any assassin left in the room, only a headless corpse and another corpse with its head smashed open like a watermelon, along with a line of freshly written, bloody large characters.

“Dare to plot against my beloved disciple, I’ve taken your head as a warning, left by True Person Black Water!”

Upon seeing these blood-soaked words, it wasn’t long before the trusted aides of the Five Immortals Hall cried out in grief. Following their cries, the other four leaders of the Five Immortals Hall rushed in upon hearing the news.

The Five Immortals Hall was initially formed by five like-minded friends, thus it was named the Five Immortals Hall.

However, as the Five Immortals Hall grew and expanded, the original friendship had long soured due to power struggles, particularly in the Five Immortals Hall Alliance where the Grand Leader Manchen wielded power alone, continuously suppressing the other four.

Now, with Manchen’s death, the other four leaders of the Five Immortals Hall immediately entertained different thoughts.

They had witnessed how much Manchen enjoyed his unchallenged power over the years. Previously, they had been suppressed by Manchen with no opportunity, but now?

Exchanging a glance, the four seemed to have a tacit understanding and swiftly retreated, each unleashing talisman light to summon their loyalists to seize power!

The chaos in the Five Immortals Hall thus erupted!

…..

Ye Zhen had almost escaped into the ground at the very moment the guards of the Five Immortals Hall barged in. Of course, he didn’t forget to strip the storage ring from the Grand Leader Manchen of the Five Immortals Hall before escaping underground.

It’s conceivable that the storage rings of the grand leaders like Manchen of the Five Immortals Hall or Xu Yueshan of the Sky Horse Gang wouldn’t disappoint Ye Zhen.

However, there was no time to inspect them now, as there was still one remaining Sect Master of the Brotherhood, Yuen An, to deal with.

If there was any delay, allowing Yuen An, the Sect Master of the Brotherhood, to prepare, then Ye Zhen’s assassination of Manchen and Xu Yueshan would only benefit Yuen An.

Thus, not long after burrowing underground, Ye Zhen chose a quiet spot and soared into the sky, then rode the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten, rushing at the fastest speed towards the Brotherhood’s main hall located to the south.

Even though Ye Zhen’s Earth Escape speed underground increased significantly due to the condensation of Innate Soul Light, it still couldn’t match the speed of flying.

The Brotherhood’s hall was about five hundred miles from the Five Immortals Hall. Riding the Cloud Winged Tiger King Kitten, Ye Zhen took less than one hundred and fifty breaths to reach the sky above the Brotherhood.

Finding a secluded spot, Ye Zhen plunged into the ground.

Inside the Brotherhood’s main hall, all was calm. The sudden upheaval at the Five Immortals Hall hadn’t seemed to reach here yet.

According to the map provided by Hong Jiyin, Ye Zhen easily found the private residence where Yuen An, the Sect Master of the Brotherhood, was resting.

This Yuen An seemed either very bold or very confident in his own strength, having arranged only about a dozen guards in the courtyard. Aside from a single Guardian Talisman around his bedroom, there were no other defenses.

Moreover, Ye Zhen arrived at an opportune moment, as the Sect Master Yuen An of the Brotherhood was sleeping very soundly, the perfect time for Ye Zhen to strike.

Silently, Ye Zhen’s head emerged into Yuen An’s Silent Chamber, and the mid-grade spirit artifact Thousand Vine in Ye Zhen’s hand silently shot out hundreds of dark green vine glows.

These hundreds of vine glows were extremely fast, and almost as soon as they were fired, they silently entangled the sleeping Sect Master Yuen An of the Brotherhood.

With a thought, the hundreds of vine glows immediately wrapped Yuen An tightly. Habitually, to prevent sound, some of the vine glows deadened Yuen An’s mouth, while dozens of vine glows instantly transformed into the sharpest vine blades, stabbing toward Yuen An’s vital areas, aiming to completely block Yuen An’s spiritual power wave.

Yet, just as the vine blades formed by dozens of vine glows were about to stab, the figure of Yuen An, the sleeping Sect Master of the Brotherhood, suddenly shuddered and turned into scattered light points, and ‘Yuen An’ ensnared by Ye Zhen’s hundreds of vine glows disappeared into thin air. On the bedstead, a heap of purple jade powder suddenly erupted.

“A Replacement Jade Talisman?”

Ye Zhen’s expression suddenly changed, “Not good!”

Almost simultaneously, triumphant laughter sounded from outside the door.

“Hahahaha, the Sect Master indeed foresaw everything accurately. As soon as the news that the Five Immortals Hall’s Grand Leader Manchen was assassinated arrived, arrangements were immediately made, and it took less than a hundred breaths for someone to fall into the trap!

Come, let’s see this so-called Establishment King True Person Black Water and what they’re really like?” said a martial artist with a face full of horizontal flesh, striding into the Silent Chamber, his shoulder shaking as earth-yellow spirit light shot to all corners of the chamber.

Rumble!

Instantly, the entire Silent Chamber was blasted into pieces by the earth-yellow spirit light, with smoke and dust filling the air, completely exposing Ye Zhen.

“I didn’t expect to be trapped…. ”

After the initial panic, Ye Zhen quickly calmed down. With the Earth Escape in hand, even if it were an ambush, there was nothing to fear.

What amazed Ye Zhen was the speed of the Brotherhood’s reaction. Ye Zhen estimated that from the time he assassinated the Grand Leader Manchen of the Five Immortals Hall until now, it wouldn’t have taken more than half a quarter-hour altogether.

But within this short half a quarter-hour, Yuen An, the Sect Master of the Brotherhood, had calmly made arrangements and successfully laid an ambush. This capability was indeed formidable.

This Brotherhood being able to become the leader among over a hundred small forces in Red Fire Martial City, and the largest alliance in the three major small forces alliance, wasn’t just an idle boast.

As the dust settled, faintly discernible figures appeared all around Ye Zhen, and behind him, Yuen An, the Sect Master of the Brotherhood, watched him with a smile.

“Is this esteemed person the mysterious master of Ye Zhen, the one who stood up for the Altar Master of the Red Fire Subdivision, True Person Black Water? Could you turn your face for us to see what kind of being it is that silently wiped out the Grand Leader Manchen of the Five Immortals Hall?”

“Humph, what, are you proud?” Ye Zhen retracted Thousand Vine, slowly turned around, his face cold and stern, “Do you think just you people can deal with me?” Ye Zhen pointed at the surrounding people, a strand of divine soul waves purely activated by Innate Soul Light enveloped his whole body.

This allowed Ye Zhen’s aura to become unfathomably ethereal, so that even at a close distance, these people couldn’t sense Ye Zhen’s true cultivation, only feeling Ye Zhen to be profoundly mysterious.

As the dust settled, nearly thirty martial artists gathering from all directions were exposed, all of them being martial artists of the Vein Forging Realm.

Theoretically, thirty martial artists of the Vein Forging Realm could certainly kill an Establishment King, but in actual practice, it’s very difficult, unless they’re natural death soldiers!

Upon hearing this, Yuen An, the Sect Master of the Brotherhood, laughed, “No, of course not, ambushing an Establishment King, I wouldn’t dare to be so heedless. If you’re truly a powerful person of the fifth or sixth stage of the Establishment, we’d be sorely pressed.

However, I wonder if True Person Black Water has ever heard of the Demon-Annihilating General?” (To be continued.
