"Master …"
When Fang Chen heard this familiar voice, he instantly stopped in his tracks with a touch of astonishment on his face.
"What's wrong?"
Star-moon who was right behind Fang Chen, saw Fang Chen who had suddenly stopped in his tracks, and asked.
Fang Chen did not answer Xing Yue's question, because at this moment, a familiar voice had once again resounded in his mind.
"Master, I was protecting you, but a very powerful martial artist suddenly appeared. I couldn't win against him, so I got injured and ran away." Ice Heaven Lord said.
Before Fang Chen entered the Flowing Water Palace, he had ordered the Ice Heaven Lord to protect him. However, when he came out, he had only seen Yao Yun, and not the Ice Heaven Lord.
At that time, Fang Chen had guessed that the Ice Heaven Lord had most likely died in Yao Yun's hands.
However, he didn't expect to hear the Ice Heaven Lord's voice transmission.
< The soul seed > is a very magical control type cultivation technique. Before a master and a puppet, as long as the distance between them is not too far, they would be able to send a sound transmission.
And at this time, Fang Chen was also certain that the Ice Heaven Lord was no longer surrounding him, so he was definitely not far away.
"Where are you?" Fang Chen asked.
"Master, I am at the foot of the mountain in a secluded place. Recently, the warriors of the three forces have been searching for me and I am unable to leave." Ice Heaven Lord said.
After Fang Chen heard this, he pondered for a moment, then said: "Be careful of yourself, find a chance to free yourself. Once you free yourself, head over to the Greencloud County to find me."
"Alright, Master." Ice Heaven Lord said.
Only after he finished contacting the Ice Heaven Lord, did Fang Chen turn his head to look at Xing Yue, and said with a smile: "It's fine, let's go."
After he finished speaking, Fang Chen led Xing Yue and left the mountain peak.
After leaving the mountain peak, Fang Chen had met with some warriors from the three big powers, but they were mostly the weaker ones. In the blink of an eye, they were all killed by Fang Chen.
Fang Chen and Xing Yue were extremely careful on their journey, avoiding the search of the three great forces with much difficulty.
A day later, Fang Chen and Xing Yue appeared on top of a wasteland. This wasteland was the way to Dark Heaven City, and was also the path Fang Chen was preparing to take to leave the Undersky County for the imperial capital.
Originally, there was a Flying Crane in Fang Chen's special spatial ring, but the Flying Crane could only fit one person at a time. Because there was the star moon, Fang Chen didn't summon his Flying Crane at all.
Even after arriving at this wasteland, Fang Chen still did not let his guard down. He wanted to quickly leave the Underworld Country.
However, as Fang Chen was walking ahead, he suddenly saw a group of people walking towards him.
"Hmm?" Xing Yue frowned, but just as she was about to speak, Fang Chen quickly rushed towards the distance.
The leader of the group had an ice-cold expression on his face.
"Kid, when I reach dark plain, I will definitely make you suffer a fate worse than death." Gu Ershaoye thought.
"Isn't this Gu Ershaoye? Where are you going? "
Suddenly, a voice came out, causing Gu Ershaoye and the rest to stop and look around.
"Who?" Gu Ershaoye asked coldly.
"It's me." Fang Chen appeared, his face carrying a trace of ridicule.
"It's you?" How is that possible, why are you here? " When Gu Ershaoye saw Fang Chen, his face was filled with surprise as he asked.
"Of course I'm here to kill you." Fang Chen said.
"Kill him!" Gu Ershaoye immediately gave the order, and the subordinates behind him all released their tyrannical attacks, wanting to kill Fang Chen.
Bang Bang Bang...
Fang Chen's attacks were extremely sharp and in the blink of an eye, a few of Gu Ershaoye's subordinates had died at his hands.
"You …"
Seeing that, Gu Ershaoye's face changed, he was terrified.
"Why are you so strong?" Gu Ershaoye continuously retreated, his face full of fear.
"Didn't you want to kill me?"
Fang Chen walked towards Gu Ershaoye step by step, his face was filled with a sinister smile, and his eyes were filled with killing intent.
"I beg you, please let me go. I will give you anything you want."
Plop …
Gu Ershaoye immediately knelt on the ground, begging Fang Chen to let him go.
Just as Fang Chen was about to speak, a burst of Qi suddenly came out, and Gu Ershaoye's body slumped to the ground.
Fang Chen turned his head to see that it was Xing Yue who had made her move. Although Xing Yue had not fully recovered from her injuries, killing Gu Ershaoye was an easy task.
Xing Yue took a glance at Fang Chen before turning her head to look elsewhere.
Seeing that, Fang Chen's face showed awkwardness.
"Let's go." Fang Chen said.
Ten days later, Fang Chen and Xing Yue left the Darkheaven County and arrived at a strange place not far from the imperial capital.
"Xingyue, you go back first. I need to make a trip home." Fang Chen said.
Xing Yue nodded and didn't say anything more. She turned around and left.
Looking at the back figure of Xing Yue as she left, Fang Chen summoned his Flying Crane and flew in the direction of the Cyan Cloud County.
Back then, when Green Edge Sword Sect's crisis was resolved, Fang Chen had found out that there was a captain called Qingyang Captain behind that mysterious force.
Qingyang Captain's strength was extremely tyrannical, and at its peak, he was definitely a martial artist that could compare to Qi Ranking Warriors.
Initially, he had heard from the qi transformation realm cultivator that the Qingyang Captain was currently in closed-door training to recover his strength.
And now, it had been almost a year since then. Before Fang Chen went to the Underworld Country, he had already thought about it.
After all, once the Qingyang Captain was out of seclusion, no one in Greencloud County would be able to withstand its might.
Within the ten days of Fang Chen escaping from the Underworld Country, the three major powers of the Underground Sky County had completely descended into a crazed state.
Yao Yun's death, had directly caused Celestial Lake to blame this matter on him, and Gu Ershaoye's death, had thoroughly angered the Gu family.
The Gu family had even wanted to join forces with the other top ten sects to send troops to the Divine Wind Sword Mansion. However, because the Elders Guild had failed in the end, they temporarily stopped.
However, the upper echelons of the Gu family had already spoken harshly. This matter would never end like this.
As for the person involved, Fang Chen, he had quietly returned to the Greencloud County.
Once he returned to the Greencloud County, Fang Chen immediately went back to take a look at the Fang family. Everything was going well within the family, and with some support from him, the Fang family's power was gradually growing stronger.
In just a short year, even though the Fang family was still in Black Cloud City and did not expand, their strength was already comparable to the Green Edge Sword Sect.
During the past few days at the Fang Family, Fang Chen taught the young disciples whenever he had nothing to do, and he would sometimes exchange pointers with the strong warriors of the older generation.
In short, time passed bit by bit.
On the eighth day after Fang Chen returned to the Fang family, the warriors who sent out to ask for news finally got some information.
In a small town not far from Green Edge Sword Sect, he was massacred by a mysterious Ranker. The scene was extremely tragic.
When Fang Chen heard the news, he quickly made a decision to leave the Fang family and ride the Flying Crane, arriving at the little town that had been massacred.
"Descend."
From the sky, he could see that the whole town was filled with smoke and miasma. Corpses were strewn all over the streets. Blood was flowing like rivers, and it was a terrible sight to behold.
After the Flying Crane landed, Fang Chen kept it and walked on the street to observe the wounds of the dead.
"Most of the wounds on the victim's neck seem to have been bitten." Fang Chen observed the victim's wound and said softly.
Just then, a large group of people appeared behind Fang Chen.
"Hey, what are you doing? This place has already been sealed up by our Green Edge Sword Sect, hurry up and leave. " One of the disciples berated loudly.
While they were speaking, a large group of people appeared in front of Fang Chen, interrogating him, thinking that he was a suspicious person.
"Brat, what are you sneaking around for?" The leader asked in a deep voice.
Fang Chen stood up, looked at the warriors and smiled indifferently: "I don't seem to be sneaking around right?"
These disciples were all new disciples of the Green Edge Sword Sect. This time, they were sent by the sect to inspect this little town, and by the time they had entered the Green Edge Sword Sect, Fang Chen had already long since disappeared.
"I now have a strong suspicion that you had something to do with the bloodbath in this town." The person in the lead said coldly.
Fang Chen was a little speechless, he shrugged his shoulders.
"I was once a disciple of the Green Edge Sword Sect as well." Fang Chen said.
"Hmph, you think we can just believe you just because you made up some random lie? I see a lot of people like you every day. They all admire our Green Edge Sword Sect, but they are unable to join.
"That's right, how could a disciple like you so casually join our Green Edge Sword Sect?"
"Hahaha, what a joke, you actually dared to say that you were once a disciple of the Green Edge Sword Sect?"
"You are so young, if you had joined the Green Edge Sword Sect, we would have definitely known each other.
"Do you think you are the once supreme Heaven's Pride, Fang Chen?"
These disciples spoke back and forth with ridicule and no one knew that the person in front of them was their supreme idol, Fang Chen.
Fang Chen knew that no matter how he explained, they would not listen to him.
However, the warriors from other places had naturally heard the commotion.
A man in white clothes suddenly walked over.
"What happened here?" The man in white asked.
The leader said, "Elder Du Zhong, we found a suspicious person here and we want to bring him back for interrogation. However, he said that he was once a disciple of the Green Edge Sword Sect, it is truly laughable."
"That's right, he's lying. He must be related to the killer of Bloody Butcher Town."
"Let me see." Du Zhong's voice sounded.
Following that, the disciples opened up a path for Du Zhong, and Fang Chen instantly appeared in front of him.
The moment he saw Fang Chen, Du Zhong's expression froze.
