Chapter 346: The One Who Dared to Challenge the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yi Zhen suppressed his killing intent forcefully, raised the jade slip in his hand and said solemnly, “I have just been informed that none of the 36 Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect disciples I sent to the Sunset Immortal Protectorate have survived. The cultivators in the Sunset Immortal Protectorate are weaklings who just ascended. Two of the disciples were Great Unity Immortals. Therefore, they must have been killed by Jing Luowen...”

A man with a black beard in linen clothes stood up, cupped his fists and said, “Sect Master Yi, I know Sect Master Jing well. I think that an investigation is needed before we conclude that Sect Master Jing stole the light from providence in the Newborn Immortal Protectorate. May I know when your disciples tried to hunt Sect Master Jing?”

Although Yi Zhen’s face was terribly saturnine, he could not avoid the question. He would have asked his supporters to speak up for him if someone else had questioned him. However, this person was not an ordinary cultivator. He was the sect master of the Limitless Sword Dao Sect, Lu Xikun, who was a late-stage Immortal King expert more powerful than Yi Zhen.

Although the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect led the Immortal World and Yi Zhen’s words could receive a lot of support from top-notch sects, Yi Zhen was well-aware that he could not influence Lu Xikun. The Limitless Sword Dao Sect was also one of the top sects in the Immortal World, so it was more powerful than the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect in terms of strength. They did not impress others with their exaggerated words, but with the long swords in their hands.

Many sect masters looked at Yi Zhen when Lu Xikun stood up.

Even though the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect had a huge influence, a big reason why they were so impactful was due to the influence left behind by the Immortal Emperor of the Radiant Fortune.

There was not an Immortal Emperor in the Immortal World anymore, and the Limitless Sword Dao Sect was considered a massive top-notch sect there. To add insult to injury, the question posed by Lu Xikun was a common question among the cultivators, so Yi Zhen had no choice but to answer it.

Yi Zhen nodded. “I would have answered this question even if Sect Master Lu had not asked. I have been searching for a way out for the Newborn Immortal Protectorate during all these years. However, I did not find any clues until three years ago...”

Everyone held their breath to listen to Yi Zhen when they heard him say that he had found a clue to the way out.

Yi Zhen’s voice filled the entire hall. “Three years ago, I brought some disciples along to check where the light from providence was flowing towards...”

Nobody doubted Yi Zhen’s words, as the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect was the sect that could detect the whereabouts of the light from providence. Many sects in the Immortal World used to depend on the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect to inspect the sites where they established their sects.

“That was when I saw Jing Luowen expropriate the light from providence in the Immortal World and understood fully why the light from providence escaped from the Newborn Immortal Protectorate. I berated Jing Luowen immediately. She was extremely frightened when she saw me coming, so she promised to return all the light from providence and use the disciples from the Virtuous Nirvana Sect to ensure the light from providence in the Immortal World...”

Yi Zhen wanted to put the blame on Jing Luowen initially as, by right, no one would refute him or his status. Now that Lu Xikun had rebutted him, he suddenly realized that there seemed to be a huge loophole in his words...

Yi Zhen sighed deeply despite knowing that there was a loophole in what he had said. “The Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect and the Virtuous Immortal Sect are the two biggest sects. Hence, I have been treating them like our relatives. Never did I imagine that Jing Luowen would plot against me...”

As many sect masters sighed, many of them also realized that something was wrong.

Lu Xikun, who was the first to spot the problem, said drily, “Sect Master Yi, you have led us in building the Great Sky Wall Array between the Newborn Immortal Protectorate and the Sunset Immortal Protectorate. A few sect masters even died while we were creating the array. The array flag used to activate the Great Sky Wall Array was also with you. Hence, even if Sect Master Jing managed to launch a sneak attack hastily, I doubt that she could snatch that array flag away.”

Yi Zhen’s heart sank. He had not expected that Lu Xikun would be so disrespectful as to rebuke him in front of everyone.

When everyone fixed their eyes on Yi Zhen, he realized that he had made a mistake and said emotionlessly, “The reason I was able to lead everyone in setting up the Great Sky Wall Array was because our immortal sect had experience building it. At the time, the founders of the Virtuous Nirvana Sect and the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect were good friends and both of them were involved in the array. I guess that Jing Luowen had been looking for ways to unravel the Great Sky Wall Array ever since it was set up. A few years ago, she unraveled the array and started to expropriate the light from providence in the Newborn Immortal City.”

His explanation was implausible but forcefully acceptable. In the past, the Virtuous Nirvana Sect and the Heavenly Fortune Immortal Sect had been closely connected. One of them had served justice, while the other had served the dark side. Both sects were extremely famous. According to the rumors, the founders of the two sects had some associations.

Lu Xikun cupped his fists and replied noncommittally, “Oh, I see. It seems a little odd for 36 of your disciples to perish at the same time three years after being sent to the Sunset Immortal Protectorate. By right, they should have parted ways three years ago, after they found the whereabouts of Sect Master Jing.”

Yi Zhen pulled a long face and said coldly, “Sect Master Lu, I gathered everyone here to talk about saving the Newborn Immortal Protectorate from turning into the Sunset Immortal Protectorate. I am not here to be questioned by you.”

The aura around Yi Zhen built up quickly as he finished his sentence. It was obvious that he had attained the Perfected Immortal King Realm.

If Yi Zhen’s target had been someone else, he would have intimidated that person successfully. However, the person Yi Zhen wanted to threaten was Lu Xikun, who was not afraid of him at all and said without hesitation, “I suspect you because I am very aware that the sect master of the Virtuous Nirvana Sect could not plot against you. This is because I have seen you plotting against Sect Master Jing Luowen’s junior sister, Elder Jing Luolin, right before she disappeared.”

“You are making slanderous accusations...” Yi Zhen looked sullen. Meanwhile, the killing intent around him flared up.

Lu Xikun laughed. “I always say what I want to say. Although your Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect is powerful, you cannot threaten the Limitless Sword Dao Sect.”

Yi Zhen calmed down when he thought of something. “Sect Master Lu, it is your choice to suspect me. However, we need everyone to work hand in hand instead of harboring suspicions.”

Lu Xikun sneered. “I did not intend to attend this meeting, even though you asked us to. I just hope that you can open the Great Sky Wall Array and let the Limitless Sword Dao Sect return to the Sunset Immortal Protectorate.”

Yi Zhen replied without hesitation, “The Great Sky Wall Array concerns the whole Newborn Immortal Protectorate. It is not something we can open as and when you like.”

“Ha ha ha ha ha...” Although Lu Xikun laughed, he was not happy at all. After laughing loudly, he pointed at Yi Zhen and said, “Yi Zhen, your Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect can go to the Sunset Immortal Protectorate whenever it wants to, but my Limitless Sword Dao Sect cannot do the same. He he... The fact that we put the array flag in your hands at the time does not mean that the Great Sky Wall Array belongs to the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect.”

Indeed, many sect masters pulled a long face after hearing Lu Xikun’s words.

Frankly speaking, the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect merely helped safekeep the array flag. However, it members could not do whatever they wanted with it, even though they did not allow anyone else to use it.

When Lu Xikun finished his words, he spoke to the sect masters with cupped fists before the sulky Yi Zhen could reply. “Sect masters and daoists, my Limitless Sword Dao Sect does not intend to participate in this hypocritical meeting. If the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect had not started a war in the first place, there would not even have been so many killings in the Sunset Immortal Protectorate. I only found out afterward that the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect did this to reduce the number of cultivators in the Newborn Immortal Protectorate. How many people from their sect died? The Limitless Sword Dao Sect does not appreciate this. If the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect intends to do the same thing once again, the Limitless Sword Dao Sect will take its leave.”

“Lu Xikun, you must have a death wish...” Yi Zhen could not hold back his murderous intent, no matter how shrewd or sneaky he was. He grabbed an array flag before the killing array was activated instantly and the entire hall was overwhelmed by enraged killing intent.

The sect masters in the hall were panic-stricken as they all took out a Dharma treasure.

Sect Master Tan Mo from the Ultimate Essence Immortal Manor was the first to stand by Lu Xikun’s side. “The Ultimate Essence Immortal Manor will stick with Sect Master Lu through thick and thin.”

“The Vast Array Immortal Sect is willing to support Sect Master Lu...”

“The Nanping Immortal Palace...”

Within a short time, at least half of the sect masters and the representatives of various powers stood next to Lu Xikun.

How many of the people who had survived to this day were morons?

Many people suspected what would happen when the sunset befell the Immortal World, even though Lu Xikun had not mentioned it. The point was that the Radiant Fortune Immortal Sect was the only sect that had not experienced any casualties ever since the Immortal World had faltered.

The most suspicious thing was that Yi Zhen was trying to put the blame on Jing Luowen, even though Lu Xikun had seen him launch a sneak attack on Jing Luolin. Many people were aware of Jing Luowen’s character, so few of them actually believed that Jing Luowen would expropriate the light from providence.

The crowd was frustrated with Yi Zhen’s decision to prohibit Lu Xikun from entering the Sunset Immortal Protectorate, whereas the disciples of the Radiant Fortune Sect could travel in and out of the Newborn Immortal Sect freely.
