Chapter 393: The Treasures Are Shaking

Chapter 393: The Treasures Are Shaking

Outside the estate, the veil emitted a glow. It appeared abruptly in the quietness of the late night. Though it looked sacred, looking at it sent shivers down people's spines and filled them with a sense of horror. It was Heng Jun. Was he about to cross realms with the treasured artifact? This sudden turn of events made everyone uneasy. Not only Zhang Daoling and the Patriarch of Hades Blood but also the powerful figures within the veil were alarmed upon learning of Heng Jun's movements.

"Heng Jun, why have you come?" Zhang Daoling spoke. As the founder of a sect he exuded great dignity, even in the face of the insurmountable Ascension Banner. His expression was cold and calm.

"I've come for him." Heng Jun pointed with the Ascension Banner towards Wang Xuan that was outside the house by the reed lake.

He had white hair but a youthful face paired with deep-set eyes and he was dressed in immortal robes woven from the silk of the Yin Yang Divine Fire Silkworm. He stood behind the curtain surrounded by a chaotic aura, his depth was unfathomable.

"Old Heng, aren't you the least inclined to meddle in others' conflicts? Why have you come here now to assist Zheng in his plight?" the Patriarch of Hades Blood spoke.

"Hades Blood, are you taking sides now? Do you want to oppose Brother Heng and I?" Zheng Yuantian spoke with a mysterious and heavy aura that the black armor gave out.

The Patriarch of Hades Blood sneered at him, saying, "Zheng, haven't you forgotten that not long ago, you, Qiyi, and the Demon Ancestor impersonated me? I have no grudges against Brother Heng, it's just you that I find unpleasant!"

Zheng Yuantian remained silent, thinking to himself:

Why dont you blame yourself for having nine lives? Didnt various factions impersonate you since ancient times to engage in clandestine activities?

The Ascension Banner in Heng Jun's hand was almost tearing through the great veil. The treasured artifact was indeed terrifying. In the hands of such powerful individuals, hell be unstoppable. It seemed capable of truly breaking free from the shackles of the old covenant!

"This young man killed all those who I sent to the Old World. He left none behind. Naturally, I have come to settle scores with him," Heng Jun said calmly.

Wang Xuan said in a deep voice, "I fought against them for self-defense. These people not only wanted to kill me but also intended to harm my parents and slaughter my friends without mercy. Should I just stand by and watch them act while doing nothing?"

Now, he had nothing to fear. At worst, he could fight to the death. As long as he was willing to reveal the Life Essence Furnace, and with the four peerless experts by his side. He should be able to counter-kill the opponent! Heng Jun ignored him and instead conversed with Zhang Daoling and the Patriarch of Hades Blood. Obviously, thinking that he had a higher status, he didn't intend to say much to Wang Xuan as they were not on the same level.

"Years ago, I owed Old Zheng a favor. Today, I'm repaying it by blocking all of you," Heng Jun stated.

There was no need to even think about it, it was clear that Zheng Yuantian had called upon him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have needed to mobilize forces for the sake of his subordinates.

He actually had plenty of time in the future. He could silently eliminate Wang Xuan when he crossed realms. But Zheng Yuantian couldn't wait anymore. He had approached him privately to seek his assistance.

Zhang Daoling spoke up, "Friend, isn't this going a bit too far? If your disciples are unjustly harmed, it's understandable if youre enraged. But if they fail in their killings and are killed instead. Isnt it excessive for you to wield a treasured artifact, causing ripples across two realms? We have nothing to say if you let your other disciples take action."

Evidently, this argument was Zhang's way of bargaining with him. He was persuading him to not act recklessly. People at this level didn't like direct confrontation with each other.

Heng Jun shook his head, stating, "I may not take action against him, but I also don't want you to confront Zheng, as this is a matter between Zheng Yuantian and me."

What was going on?!

Despite him being able to wield the Feathered Flag, he had never received a response no matter how he communicated with it. He suddenly looked up and saw two women approaching, whom he instantly recognized. Both women were well-known for personally ending the ancient myth!

The two women walked side by side towards him, one in white and was ethereal and otherworldly. The other in brilliant red that dazzled like a bewitching flower. Both had different auras, but both were exceptionally charismatic. Wherever they went, they were destined to be the center of attention, captivating everyone's gaze.

"Heng Jun, are you going to help Zheng Yuantian take action?" Fang Yuzhu spoke calmly. She remained composed even when facing a peerless figure wielding a treasure.

Heng Jun frowned. He was somewhat wary when faced with this woman. He remembered how she had slain the Demon Emperor years ago. It was a memory that he, as a witness, had not forgotten to this day. Especially now, with the four top experts standing together, the true bodies in the great veil must be keeping an eye on him. It was impossible not to feel any pressure.

Heng Jun said, "Lady Fang, Demon Lord, why bother? Zheng's clone being killed is a great humiliation. If a peerless expert like him can't even avenge such a grudge, but is obstructed by fellow practitioners like you, then it's truly unjust."

At this point, he turned his gaze entirely to Wang Xuan for the first time, saying, "You initiated this matter. I believe you can resolve it on your own. Do you want to trigger a major battle among peerless experts because of yourself? If you dare provoke Zheng, you must have the courage to face him!"

"Zheng Yuantian, am I afraid of him? Make him come out!" Wang Xuan said bluntly.

He further added, "This is my feud with him, and everyone will be witnesses. I will confront him alone, without the intervention of others!"

Such words made everyone look askance.

Fang Yuzhu slightly shook her head at him. She wanted to tell him that it was not so simple to fight Zheng Yuantian. At this stage, even if Wang Xuan faced Zheng, who had constraints in the present world, he was still inadequate. Was Wang Xuan afraid? Not at all. If the fight was unavoidable, he was prepared to smash Zheng Yuantian to death with the lid of the furnace! What's the point of keeping the treasure if he wont be using it? It should be used when one is pushed to the wall!

"I'll have a bloody battle with him. Are you sure you won't intervene with the treasure?" Wang Xuan looked at Heng Jun.

Of course, if the other party intervened, it wouldn't be a big deal either. He had made up his mind long ago. Once his treasure was exposed, he would hand over the furnace to Fang Yuzhu and let her deal with Heng Jun.

"Do you think you're worth my intervention?" Heng Jun said indifferently.

This time, Wang Xuan felt that he might as well go all out and kill them all if he were truly pushed to the brink. As for the bloodshed and battles for the treasure in the future, there would be ways to deal with them later. Moreover, he might even be able to obtain the Ascension Banner. Whether it was Old Zhang, the Demon Lord, or Hades Blood, even if they were ruthless and coveted the treasure, it didn't matter. He would give them the Ascension Banner.

At this moment, in the manor, Qing Mu was observing through the detector. He was sweating profusely, and even Hades Blood and Old Zhang were moved.

In the great veil, the immortals were also shocked. This young man was going all out, intending to dye the great veil red with his blood. Was he planning to avenge himself through his death with Fang Yuzhu and the others? Zheng Yuantian frowned. He was very sensitive and felt some ripples in his heart. He was feeling a little heavy.

As for Heng Jun, his senses were even clearer. He always felt that something was off today. The Ascension Banner in his hand had just vibrated again. It made his heart beat heavily and he was extremely uneasy!

"Are we fighting or not?" Wang Xuan urged. He felt that it wasn't a big deal. At worst, he would break through the curtain, dye the old world with blood, and let the enemy pay the price!
