Chapter 343 - To The Immortals' League

Out of the city, it was just plains and not a single mountain or river. Xiao Chen chased for hundreds of miles to the west. Under the twilight, Xiao Chen saw a big mountain appearing in front of him, and a black spot as well. It was Ling Ruoxu who was moving at the maximum speed on his sword.

Coincidentally, the last time he and Luo Shangyan were being pursued by the Ling family, it was also when the twilight was bleak. The difference was that this time, he was the pursuer.

“Old b*stard! Don’t think of escaping!”

Xiao Chen bellowed and pushed the sword flying technique to its limit. Ling Ruoxu noticed that he had caught up, so without thinking, he threw a few seal talisman directly to the back. Flames shot up to the sky, and there were endless loud booms. A large forest underneath was instantly destroyed.

Xiao Chen avoided the seal talisman attack and sneered. “I, Xiao Chen, have been pursued every day since I entered the Violet Manor. I didn’t imagine that there’ll be a day when I am the pursuer! Die, old b*stard!” Then he slashed him with his blade, blood-red blade radiance looked more dazzling than the sunset glow.

Ling Ruoxu hastily avoided, although his current cultivation was slightly higher than Xiao Chen, he would not badger with him at this moment. He had to rush to the Immortals’ League as soon as possible and publicized Xiao Chen’s evil deeds to the world. The world’s Orthodox Path would sanction this wicked being! Thinking about this, he speeded up and rushed to the front like a bolt of lightning.

Xiao Chen also speeded up, and the two were like chasing the wind and running after the lightning. This continued till the next morning. There were several times along the way whereby Xiao Chen almost got him. But at every critical moment, Ling Ruoxu would always take a pill and then escape again.

However, Xiao Chen did not have much Energy Pill. After a night of chasing, he was feeling the depletion in his True Energy. Now he finally understood how much bitter hatred his pursuers were feeling when he was fleeing and taking Energy Pill at the same time.

“Old b*stard! I’ll see how many pills you have!”

Ling Ruoxu turned over and saw that he was already panting. He sneered and said, “My Energy Pill is enough to support me to the Immortals’ League. The Orthodox Path people of the five continents have already gathered in Tianyuan City. Ahaha! Kiddo, you shall wait to be drawn and quartered!” Then he ran forward again.

Xiao Chen finally stopped, he panted and panted as he watched Ling Ruoxu’s figure getting smaller and smaller which finally turned into a black spot and disappeared. He knew that Ling Ruoxu was not bluffing. The different sects of the Orthodox Path had already gathered and Muxue was still locked in the Immortals’ League Immortal’s Prison. With Muxue’s temper, he was afraid that she would die for him. He immediately yelled, “Guifeng!”

“Here!”

A thirty-foot-tall devil shadow appeared out of thin air, with a huge blade, riding a magical ride, his eyes were red and bloody, and the armor emitted rolls of black Qi, he looked terrifying.

“Go get that old b*stard in front and smash him into pieces!”

“Yes, master! Master, come up!” After that, Guifeng stretched out his big hand and took Xiao Chen onto the horseback. The devil ride soared, and its four hooves were like on fire as it ran forward chasing after Ling Ruoxu.

“Da-da! Da-da! Da-da!”

Even in midair, the sound of horseshoes could be heard. Ling Ruoxu was fleeing with all his might when he heard the sound and at the same time, felt an extremely petrifying aura nearing him. He turned and saw a thirty-foot-tall shadow. He was instantly petrified. He cried, “What! What the hell is this!”

“The general is here, hand over your life now!”

Guifeng shouted and slashed with his blade. A 100-foot long black radiance soared out of his blade as if it was tearing open space. Ling Ruoxu was caught unguarded, he was immediately thrown out by the force and vomited blood.

“Very good! General, kill him for me!”

“Yes, master!” Guifeng shouted and attacked again at Ling Ruoxu. This attack shook heaven and earth, and it was meant to take Ling Ruoxu’s head off. Ling Ruoxu was already shitting in his pants. He cast an incantation in a hurry, “Blood a Thousand Miles!” “Shoosh!” He turned into a blood radiance disappeared in front of Xiao Chen.

It was the blood escaping technique of the Blood Yin Incantation of Ling family. By sacrificing half of his life force, he could escape thousands of miles away. Xiao Chen looked at the direction in which he disappeared, he said in a low voice, “Go!”

After chasing for 2 hours, they finally caught up with Ling Ruoxu’s that old b*stard again. But the speed of Guifeng had slowed down a lot. Presumably, the General of Soul had some restrictions on it. Every time it came out, it could not be too long, and the energy consumption could not be too large.

Hearing the sound of the hooves that followed, the last line of defense in Ling Ruoxu’s heart was almost collapsed. The sound of the horse was getting closer and closer, just like a reminder from the underworld, but he could not perform the blood escaping technique once more.

“Hand over your life!”

Guifeng yelled and another attack went, this attack was magnificent, even the hills below it started to shake. Ling Ruoxu was horror-stricken. At this moment, there was to go in heavens or earth, he could only pray to heaven, “This person had wiped out my Ling family! God, please open your eyes! Protect me, Ling Ruoxu from this death roll!”

As his voice fell, a sacred thunder came from the nine heavens above. As a bolt of lightning flashed, with a loud bang, Guifeng’s blade was hit out of its intended direction. The big blade went at a hill below and soon smashed it into pieces.

Ling Ruoxu escaped from death. He hurriedly read out an incantation and once again turned into a flash and fled. Xiao Chen glared, he pointed two fingers to the sky, “Bloody God! When my Three Pure Sect was slaughtered by the Ling Family, why did you not open your eyes! Ah…!” After a long scream, he pointed in front and said, “Go get him!”

He would kill Ling Ruoxu today definitely, even if that old b*stard did not personally participate in the slaughter of the Three Pure Sect. But if he did not make the order, even if Ling Yuanshan had a hundred courageous hearts, he would not dare not go to the Human World!

After running for a moment, one could hear a horse neighing. The magic ride stood up on its hind legs. Guifeng’s chest moved up and down. He was in shortness of breath, presumably because he had to defend the immortal lightning from heaven just now.

Xiao Chen calmed down, guessing that the General of Soul’s life force had an end too. He could not let his Soul power overdraft. He said, “General, go back to rest; I will chase that old b*stard!”

“Then, I will take leave first!” With a “Whoosh”, Guifeng disappeared into thin air.

Xiao Chen stepped on his flying sword and went after Ling Ruoxu again. After two hours running and chasing, it was noon. A big city appeared in front of Ling Ruoxu and he was overjoyed. It was Tianyuan City.

However, although it was noon, Tianyuan City was covered with strange gloomy clouds that blocked the sun. Especially in the west, the clouds were black and thick, and it was like a huge black hole that can swallow all things. It was in the direction of the Immortals’ League.

The Tianyuan City of today seemed to be expecting something huge. The whole city had layers of restriction set up by the Immortals’ League and the Daoist League of the Five Continents together. The cultivators could not fly or ride on their swords in the city. The secluded seniors from all over the five continents were also slowly making their way to the city.

Ling Ruoxu landed outside of the gate of the east city. He disregarded the two teams of city guards stopping him and desperately rushed into the city. Because sword riding was not allowed in the city, Xiao Chen landed as well. With the Blood Lotus Demon Blade in hand, he rushed into the city. The two teams of city guards were stunned when they saw him coming with an aggressive, murderous aura and they shouted, “Who are you! Stop right there!” As they spoke, they closed up the city gate.

Xiao Chen ignored those people, with a dash, he broke through the city gate and rushed in. Ling Ruoxu saw him chasing with a blade, he ran and shouted, “Help! Murder! Someone’s murdering!”

The pedestrians in the city saw the two people who suddenly came in. One person was running ahead, and the other person was holding a blade with a murderous aura chasing behind. They were completely ignorant of what was happening. Recently, the Immortals’ League had been strict with its security, and East City District was where Immortals’ League located. Who would dare to be so rampant? To be hacking someone on the street?

“Die, you old bastard!”

Xiao Chen shouted and attacked. Ling Ruoxu’s True Energy was near full consumption, he could not avoid it in time and his back was ripped open. The pedestrians around him were jumped in a scare and ran away as they dared not stay around for the drama.

At this time, the two patrol teams of the Immortals’ League had finally arrived. Ling Ruoxu was relieved and quickly ran over. He pointed at Xiao Chen in a panic and said, “He is Xiao Chen! He killed my family! He wants to kill me!”

Both patrol teams were stunned. They thought, “Wasn’t that Devil’s Practice follower, Xiao Chen, locked up a few days ago?” The two leaders immediately stepped forward and asked, “Who are you! How dare you attack a person in Tianyuan City! Bring him down!”

Ling Ruoxu saw that the patrol team had held back Xiao Chen. He hurriedly rushed towards the Immortals’ League. He knew that these two teams of soldiers could not stop Xiao Chen in any case. It was only safe to escape to the Immortals’ League himself.

Xiao Chen saw the old b*stard escaping. He leaped and was about to rush forward when the two patrols stopped him immediately. The leader said angrily, “How dare you! Who are you!”

“Didn’t you hear him say! F*ck off!” Xiao Chen waved his blade and forced the two teams in front of him out of his way. The people in the distance were shocked and they thought, “This person is crazy! He openly refused to be arrested and even attacked the patrol teams of the Immortals’ League! Run!”

Xiao Chen kept chasing, and patrol teams kept coming to stop him. He slaughtered wherever he went. The Patrol Constables of the Immortals League saw his ruthlessness and did not dare to approach anymore. Finally, he stopped his chase in front of a majestic building. It had thousand-story white jade steps paving to the top, and at every 10 steps, two spear guards stood.

“Stop right there! Who dares to break into the Immortals’ League!” The two guards at the bottom saw an old man covered in blood rushing in a panic and immediately stopped him with their spears.

“Hurry! Please get the Steward and the Warden of the Immortals’ League! Devil’s Practice follower, Xiao Chen has run out to kill!” Ling Ruoxu was already incoherent. After he finished speaking, he wanted to run upwards. The two guards immediately pulled him back. “Stop! The Warden of the Immortals’ League is having a meeting in the hall, no one can disturb!”

Then they suddenly saw a person in the distance with a blade and a murderous aura dashing over. The two guards immediately shouted, “The person in front! Don’t come any closer!” Ling Ruoxu saw the grim ripper had caught up again, he hastily ran upwards.

“Old b*stard! You can’t run!” Xiao Chen took a big step and slashed the two guards and rushed up.

“Somebody help! Help! Help! Murder!”

Ling Ruoxu scrambled up to the top. Xiao Chen was exhausted as well. If Ling Ruoxu fought with his life, even if he could not win, he would be able to have a slim chance to survive. But along the way, he had already been way too terrified.

The constables on the steps saw this and immediately went to stop Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen shouted, “Those in my way, die!” He slashed his blade at them and dozens of them were instantly thrown out.

Many cultivators had gathered below. They were stunned to see someone trying to break into the Immortals’ League with a blade. Finally, four swords radiance arrived and transformed into four old men. It was the Stewards of the Immortals’ League. All of them were in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul Realm.

Ling Ruoxu was relieved that he got hold of the last lifeline. He cried, “Stewards, save me!” and quickly ran behind the four people.

The four narrowed their eyes and one of them shouted, “Xiao Chen? Aren’t you in the prison of the Immortals’ League?” Then he turned to one of the constables and said, “Inform the Immortals’ League, Xiao Chen has escaped.”

At this moment, Ling Ruoxu was still in shocked. He panicked and said, “Stewards, this man accompanied by his fellow demons slaughtered more than 900 people in my Ling family a day ago. He is a Devil’s Practice follower! Get him now! He has an evil being with him! He is a Devil’s Practice follower!”

Xiao Chen sneered. “Demon, devil, whichever. You can say whatever you want, I don’t care anymore! Today is the end of your dog life!”

“Impudicity!” One of the Stewards of the Immortals’ League shouted. He blocked off his blade radiance and pointed at him with two fingers and said, “Xiao Chen! Let go of your weapon and hand over yourself!”

“Hand myself over to you? Ha! When the Ling Family went to slaughter my sect in the Human World, where were you!”

Ling Ruoxu’s face changed and denied, “Stewards, don’t believe his nonsense. My Ling family has passed down for thousands of years. It has a good reputation in the East Continent. It’s not like what he just said! Stewards, please take him down!”

The stewards were calm, one of them said, “This matter will be re-examined later. Xiao Chen, you have committed a sinful crime today, quickly put down your arms and surrender. We remembered your accomplishments in the Abyss of Devil’s Aura previously. We can still spare your life for that! Or else!”

Xiao Chen looked up and laughed loudly, “Haha! Spare me a life! The Immortals’ League has no power over my life and death! Guifeng!”

“Here!”

The thirty-foot tall shadow appeared out of thin air. Even if it was only two hours, the General of Soul was able to recover on its own. The faces of the four stewards suddenly change when they saw the sudden appearance of this ghost general. They exclaimed, “The General of Soul!”

“The general is here, die now!”

Guifeng yelled and swept his blade. Two of the stewards were thrown out in an instant while vomiting blood. The other two stewards cried in horror, “Hurry up and inform the elders! The opponent is Imperial Spirit Commander! Imperial Spirit Commander! He has a General of Soul that has at least the level of a tier-4!”

The few stewards only thought Xiao Chen was extremely gifted. But they never thought that he was an Imperial Spirit Commander as well. They quickly defended Ling Ruoxu and fled. The rest of the people were busy escaping. At this moment, no one dared to stop Xiao Chen. Imperial Spirit Commander, a synonym for horror. One could take in the soul of the ancient war as a General of Soul. Its horror was unimaginable.

The cultivators in a distance in the city were dumbfounded, “What is that devil shadow? Is it the legendary General of Soul?”

Xiao Chen sneered. He took one step at a time up the stairway. Everyone in the Immortals’ League was frightened. No one dared to stop him and they all fled. For nearly a thousand years, Xiao Chen was the first person to dare to kill someone from the Immortals’ League.

“Ha! You Immortals’ League will only defend for the big family sects. Since you like to cover your a*ses for each other, ha! I will turn against you Immortals’ League today! Guifeng, kill them!”
