Chapter 5218 Coercion
"What, instant kill?"
"Killing the Heavenly Master Qiang in seconds... this must be something only a Saint Master can do."
"That's not necessarily true. It's normal for a third-level heavenly master to instantly kill a first-level heavenly master."
Everyone started talking again. The news that the Celestial Master of Jiyin Palace was killed instantly was obviously more shocking than his death.
Mayunqing raised her eyebrows, raised her hand to signal everyone to be quiet, and then said: "It was not Nanhai Daozong who took action, nor Chuixuanlou. Then there is only one possibility that the cultivator of Jiyin Palace was killed."
"What kind?"
someone asked.
Zhang Tong took over the conversation and said in surprise: "Senior Brother Ma, you wouldn't say that the person who killed the Heavenly Master of Jiyin Palace was... the person named Chen Yang they were chasing, right?"
Mayunqing nodded: "There is a high probability that it is Chen Yang."
Everyone's expression changed, and they were even more curious about the mysterious Chen Yang.
How terrifying is this being that can kill the Heavenly Master instantly?
I'm afraid that no one in the entire Hanging Tower can defeat him.
But Zhang Tong felt that this inference was doubtful and said: "Senior Brother Ma, there is no shortage of holy masters in Jiyin Palace. Since Chen Yang has the strength to kill the Celestial Master instantly, why would Kuxuan Star Lord send the Celestial Master to capture him?"
Mayunqing said: "Perhaps Chen Yang has just improved his strength."
Zhang Tong looked thoughtful: "I just got promoted... I don't think it should be the case. Logically speaking, since Ku Xuan Xingzun wants to capture Chen Yang, he must be sure that the people he sends will be much stronger than Chen Yang. Therefore, Chen Yang is at most the fifth level of Earth Master, and even if he advances, he cannot kill the Heavenly Master instantly."
Mayunqing pondered and said: "I have also thought about this issue, but apart from Chen Yang, I really can't think of anyone else who would kill a Celestial Master from the Jiyin Palace, and it was between Nanhai Daozong and Chui. Even Xuanlou didn’t take action.”
For a moment, everyone fell into silence.
It doesn't make sense theoretically that it was the Jiyin Palace cultivator that Chen Yang killed.
Don't talk about him, but you can't find anyone else.
Mayunqing's eyes shone and she murmured to herself: "If we can find out the identity of the person and determine who killed the Jiyin Palace Celestial Master, this would be breaking news."
As he spoke, Mayunqing actually showed an itchy expression, turned around and walked out, shouting: "Everyone, take your leave, I have to go out."
Seeing this, Chen Yang couldn't help but be stunned.
As a cultivator, he has seen many cultivators who practice hard, and he has also seen cultivators who are obsessed with alchemy, weapon refining, and formations.
But he had never seen a cultivator like May Yunqing who was so obsessed with inquiring about information that he even abandoned his cultivation.
Although this person's behavior seems a bit strange, he is an interesting person.
If the matter didn't involve him, Chen Yang really wanted to tell Mayunqing the truth and give him psychological satisfaction.
But at least for now, he still needs to keep it secret and can only show his identity as Chen Er.
When Mayunqing left, others also left one after another.
Zhang Tong followed Chen Yang and asked: "Senior Brother Chen, are you still planning to go to Tiannan Territory? This is almost impossible."
Chen Yang smiled and said: "How is it impossible? Didn't Junior Brother Ma provide several plans?"
Zhang Tong was stunned for a moment and said: "Leaping across the Split Mountain Range, teleporting from the teleportation array controlled by Jiyin Palace, and becoming a boatman. There are three methods in total. It seems... none of them are feasible."
Chen Yang said: "Whether it's feasible or not is relative. I believe that one day, I can go to Tiannan Territory."
Seeing Chen Yang's calm look, Zhang Tong was silent for a moment and said with a smile: "Senior Brother Chen, you always give me a feeling of confidence, which is really enviable."
"As long as you work hard, you can develop this kind of self-confidence."
From the previous incident of Shang Xu bullying Zhang Tong, Chen Yang could tell that Zhang Tong did not have a good life in the Lingkong Sect, which also made him lose confidence.
For this kind of thing, Chen Yang can't help much. Only when Zhang Tong becomes stronger can he change his mentality.
However, if the time is right, Chen Yang wouldn't mind helping.
As for methods such as directly sending secret books, it is better not to do it easily when the friendship with Zhang Tong is not deep enough, otherwise Zhang Tong, who already puts his status very low, will feel inferior.
After a while, Chen Yang returned to his residence. After sending Zhang Tong away, he did not enter the door, but left the Lingkong Sect directly.
Although the Lingkong Party has strict management on its disciples and they need to perform corresponding tasks in order to obtain resources, at least they are relatively free in terms of entering and leaving the sect.
The purpose of Chen Yang's trip was Fengji City in the Tang Dynasty.
The two Jiyin Palace Celestial Masters must have gone to Jiyuan Academy. Although one is missing and the other is dead, Chen Yang must go and see the situation of Wu Jiyuan and Yinyin.
Now he was very worried about the safety of his grandfather and grandson, and felt quite guilty in his heart.
He had concealed the energy fluctuations, but was still discovered unexpectedly, putting Wu Jiyuan and his grandson in danger.
And when Chen Yang left the Lingkong Sect, Zhang Tong, who had just returned to his residence, was stopped by someone.
The person who stopped him was none other than the follower who followed Shang Xu yesterday.
"Zhang Tong, I've finally waited for you."
The two disciples of the Lingkong Sect, whose realms were several levels higher than Zhang Tong's, had cold smiles on their faces. They looked a little excited, and their eyes clearly revealed the intention of revenge.
Although Zhang Tong didn't take action yesterday, they were frightened and humiliated by Chen Yang, so they also held a grudge against Zhang Tong, who was traveling with Chen Yang.
Zhang Tong frowned, his eyes were a little evasive, and he cupped his hands and said: "Two senior brothers, I wonder what you... have come to see me for."
"I'm just asking you to do a favor."
A short and strong disciple walked over and patted Zhang Tong on the shoulder, smiling.
Zhang Tong looked puzzled and lowered his head and said, "Two senior brothers, Zhang Tong is only at the first level of the first star, and his strength is low. I really can't think of any way I can help you."
"Yes, of course."
The short and strong disciple nodded and looked around to confirm that there were no other people. He lowered his voice and said, "Help us lead Chen Er to the Yunji Forest. It's very simple. As for the method, we don't need to teach you. After leading him there, you don't have to worry about the rest."
Zhang Tong was surprised and said, "Two senior brothers, what are you...what are you going to do?"
"Don't talk nonsense, just sit down when I ask you to do it."
Another triangular-eyed disciple said to Zhang Tong viciously, looking impatient.
The short and strong disciple stopped Triangle Eyes and said to Zhang Tong with a smile: "Junior Brother Zhang, you offended Senior Brother Shang yesterday, and you thought that this matter would be forgotten. Now, Senior Brother Shang will give you a chance. As long as you lead Chen Er over, Senior Brother Shang will not hate you, and the grudge will be written off."
"No, I won't do that."
Zhang Tong shook his head. Although his tone was a little trembling and he seemed very unconfident, his eyes were very firm.
