Chapter 108: You’re in Trouble
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
As the dust settled, Shen Dingyan’s eyes and ears had already returned to normal. At this moment, Shen Dingyan was staring blankly at his chest. The bowl-sized wound pierced through his chest, and his eyes were filled with disbelief.
He was going to die, and he was going to die at the hands of a Bone Tempering disciple of the Primordial Sword Sect. How ridiculous and ridiculous was that? Just now, he was clearly about to pick up Chen Fei, but how could this happen now?
Chen Fei swallowed the blood in his throat and stared at Shen Dingyan.
Sword Six was a desperate move for the current Chen Fei. If the enemy did not die, Chen Fei would not be able to resist anymore. And when he used Sword Six in a state of great strength, Chen Fei’s body was directly on the verge of collapse.
The faint light of the jade pendant began to envelop Chen Fei, suppressing his injuries and preventing them from worsening.
Although he did not have much strength left to fight, Chen Fei was still in a state of alert. This was because one would never know what trump cards one’s enemy would have.
Just like how Shen Dingyan did not expect that Chen Fei could actually blind and deafen him, turning the situation around. Otherwise, under normal circ.u.mstances, he would not be able to escape or win this battle.
Chen Fei would have died without a doubt. There would be no other luck.
Shen Dingyan’s mouth trembled. He wanted to raise his right hand, but his eyes were filled with regret and unwillingness. He was an inner sect disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect and had a bright future ahead of him. He was unwilling to die here!
“Bang!”
Shen Dingyan’s entire body flipped backward and crashed onto the ground, completely dead.
Phew!
Seeing Shen Dingyan die, Chen Fei fell to the ground. A wave of exhaustion almost instantly drowned Chen Fei.
This battle was even more dangerous than the battle with Shi Xueqin in the courtyard.
Because this time, no one came to help Chen Fei. Chen Fei could only choose to rely on himself.
After panting for a while, Chen Fei struggled to stand up. He came to Shen Dingyan’s side and began to search for useful things on Shen Dingyan.
A moment later, a smile appeared on Chen Fei’s face as a Receival Bead appeared in his hand.
Shen Dingyan carried this half-spirit tool with him as expected. Chen Fei did not stop and continued to search.
After a dozen breaths, Chen Fei slowly stood up. There were a few more silver notes in his hand, but he did not find anything else.
There were no cultivation techniques or secret manuals. Shen Dingyan did not have any other half-spirit tools other than the Receival Bead. However, this was normal. After all, a half-spirit tool was extremely precious. Although Shen Dingyan was a disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, he was still only at the Marrow Tempering realm.
If the disciples of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect in the Marrow Tempering realm had several half-spirit weapons, the chasm would just simply be too big.
Although the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect was an overlord, spirit tools and half-spirit tools were still rare. Otherwise, Chen Fei wouldn’t have been able to kill Shen Dingyan so easily and would have just been waiting to be killed.
Chen Fei panted a few times and drew a picture next to the pit that had exploded.
This totem was the symbol of the Divine Flame Sect. Many times, after the Divine Flame Sect committed a crime, they would leave this pattern at the scene. Of course, no one knew how many things the Divine Flame Sect had done. Anyway, the Divine Flame Sect did not deny it.
Chen Fei carried Shen Dingyan’s corpse. Shen Dingyan’s sword wound was too obvious. It would be a hidden danger if he stayed here. He had to destroy the corpse and remove Chen Fei from this matter.
Two hours later, Chen Fei returned to the Primordial Sword Sect covered in blood and arrived outside the courtyard of Feng XiuPu.
“Disciple Chen Fei requests an audience with Master!” Chen Fei shouted.
Feng Xiupu was writing in his study when he heard Chen Fei’s weak voice. His figure flashed out of the courtyard and saw Chen Fei’s miserable state.
“What happened?”
Feng Xiupu appeared in front of Chen Fei in a flash and grabbed his shoulder, sending his inner strength into his body to check on his injuries.
“I met a disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect and was beaten up.” Chen Fei laughed weakly.
After dealing with Shen Dingyan’s body, Chen Fei was thinking about how to get out of this matter.
In Immortal Cloud City, many people saw Chen Fei and Shen Dingyan getting into a conflict. What stood out was that there was another disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect.
In that situation, Chen Fei wanted to avoid conflict with Shen Dingyan. Under everyone’s watchful eyes, it was an impossible situation.
However, Shen Dingyan had forced Chen Fei into a corner, and Chen Fei had no other choice. In the end, it ended up like that.
Chen Fei originally thought about whether he should tell Feng Xiupu the truth, but in the end, he decided to turn it into another version. He was beaten up by Shen Dingyan and escaped with difficulty.
It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Feng Xiupu, but Chen Fei instinctively wanted to protect himself more. Moreover, judging from the strength of both parties, the greatest possibility was that Chen Fei would not be able to resist after Shen Dingyan beat him up.
To be able to escape back, Chen Fei’s movement technique must really be impressive. Otherwise, it was probably not something that could be resolved with a beating.
“Why would a disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect beat you up!” Feng Xiupu flew into a rage, his hair fluttering in the wind.
“We met halfway that day…”
Chen Fei explained the sequence of events, and the more Feng Xiupu listened, the darker his expression became. This disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect was simply too much.
“So, after a person rushed out from behind and fought with that person, you finally escaped?” Feng Xiupu asked in a low voice after hearing Chen Fei’s explanation.
“Yes.”
“Yes.” Chen Fei nodded and said, “That disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect has an impressive movement technique. Although I’ve learned the Soul Chasing Step, I still can’t shake him off.”
Nine truths and one falsehood were the hardest lies to expose.
Feng Xiupu nodded and said in a deep voice, “Follow me to find the elder on duty and report this matter. How dare he say that you are a remnant of the Divine Flame Sect. If you don’t explain this matter clearly, there will be endless trouble.”
Good!” Chen Fei nodded.
Feng Xiupu brought Chen Fei to the sect’s Elder on duty, Wu Guangyin, and told him what had happened.
“How dare a disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect be so rude!
Wu Guangyin listened to Feng Pu’s description, especially when he saw Chen Fei’s miserable state. He had been beaten to such a state, especially the scorch marks on his arms. It was obvious that they were caused by the Thunderbolt Sword.
“Elder, I’m worried that something might happen to the disciple of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect, and Chen Fei will be the one to blame,” Feng Xiupu said in a low voice.
“Yes, that makes sense. We will send someone to the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect to protest. Why are they bullying the disciples of our Primordial Sword Sect like this?”
Wu Guangyin thought for a moment and comforted Feng Xiupu.
Feng Xiupu sighed slightly. It seemed that this was all he could do. As a transcendent power, the only thing the Primordial Sword Sect could do was protest.
After all, Chen Fei was only injured now. He did not lose an arm or a leg. In essence, it was not considered a major injury. This beating could only be pa.s.sively admitted. At most, it was a personal grudge.
Within the Immortal Cloud City.
Xu Yuanchun was waiting for Shen Dingyan to return in boredom. Two hours had pa.s.sed, but Shen Dingyan still hadn’t returned. Xu Yuanchun even ordered a table full of food and wine.
However, when Shen Dingyan was still nowhere to be seen in the second hour, Xu Yuanchun felt that something was amiss.
After such a long time, if they had caught up, they would have finished fighting long ago and would have returned by now.
If he didn’t catch up, he should have come back earlier. No matter what, it wouldn’t have dragged on for four hours.
Xu Yuanchun felt uneasy in his heart and hurriedly chased out of the city. After searching for almost two hours, he finally saw a pit.
The soil at the edge of the pit looked like it had just been blasted open, and there were blood stains around it. Xu Yuanchun even saw the fragments of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect disciples ‘clothing on the ground.
“Something happened!”
Xu Yuanchun’s face was slightly pale, and he didn’t dare to delay, running towards the sect.
Although this did not necessarily mean that something had happened to Shen Dingyan, he had not returned for such a long time. With all these factors, the possibility of something happening was too high.
Within the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect.
“What did you say? Dingyan is missing?”
Hong Yuanfeng’s eyes widened, and the powerful aura of the Aperture Tempering realm spread out in all directions. Although it wasn’t directed at Xu Yuanchun, it still caused Xu Yuanchun’s face to turn pale.
“I had followed senior brother to Immortal Cloud City today…”
Xu Yuanchun recounted everything that happened today in full detail. He didn’t dare to add fuel to the fire and told him everything he had seen and heard, afraid that he would bear any responsibility.
“He chased a Bone Tempering realm disciple of Primordial Sword Sect outside of the city?”
Hong Yuanfeng saw Xu Yuanchun stutter as he spoke and withdrew his imposing manner.
“Go and investigate the ident.i.ty of that disciple of the Primordial Sword Sect, and then get the others to look for Dingyan. If he’s alive, I want to see him, if he’s dead, I want to see his corpse!” Hong Yuanfeng said in a deep voice.
“Yes, I will do it now.” Xu Yuanchun heaved a sigh of relief and hurriedly bowed to leave.
Fifteen minutes later, more than ten figures leaped out of the gate of the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect and rushed out of the city.
This search lasted for an entire day. Afterward, the Immortal Cloud Sword Sect sent out dozens of outer sect disciples, but in the end, they still couldn’t find Shen Dingyan’s whereabouts. It was as if Shen Dingyan had disappeared.
“Master, that disciple of the Primordial Sword Sect is called Chen Fei. Yesterday, the Primordial Sword Sect sent people to protest, saying that we bullied their disciples at will.”
Xu Yuanchun stood below and said in a low voice.
“Dingyan went missing, but that Chen Fei returned safely.”
“Hmph!” Hong Yuanfeng sneered.” Tell the Primordial Sword Sect to bring that Chen Fei to our Immortal Cloud Sword Sect. We have something to ask him!”
“Yes, I will do it now.” Xu Yuanchun bowed and took his leave.
“Master, Dingyan’s disappearance should have nothing to do with Chen Fei. He’s only at the Bone Tempering realm. Judging from the traces outside the city, it might have been the work of the remnants of the Divine Flame Sect,” someone whispered.
“Dingyan’s disappearance is closely related to Chen Fei. It would be fine if Dingyan had returned in the end, but if he didn’t, how could we let Chen Fei be?”
Hong Yuanfeng’s eyes were suffused with a cold light.
Primordial Sword Sect.
Chen Fei sat cross-legged on the bed, circulating the Origin Connection Technique to heal his injuries.
Perhaps it was because of the enlightenment he had experienced in the restaurant, but his proficiency in the fourth stage of the Origin Connection Technique had soared by a large margin in just a short while yesterday. Now, he was almost at the level of perfection.
“Chen Fei, your issue has blown up. Come out!”
The door was kicked open and a group of people rushed in..
