Chapter 3525: Cut into pieces

“I…”

In the face of the facts, even if Geng Junsheng was eloquent and shameless, he couldn't explain such a thing.

At this point, there was no other way; he could only turn to look at Purple Firmament Immortal King.

“Deceiving one’s master, destroying one’s ancestors, harming fellow Disciples, and being utterly shameless—such a person deserves to be cut into a thousand pieces.”

Purple Firmament Immortal King’s words were righteous and stern; in his eyes, Geng Junsheng was of little use now.

He had originally intended to kill him after capturing Xuan Yuan Linglong, but now he didn't need to do it himself, which saved him trouble.

Moreover, regarding the previous entry into the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool, all ten Great Luo Immortal Peaks were already dead, leaving only this one survivor. It was better to nip the problem in the bud.

“You…”

Geng Junsheng was greatly alarmed. He hadn't expected Purple Firmament Immortal King to turn ruthless, with a single sentence directly sentencing him to death.

“You… Since you are unkind, don’t blame me for being unjust…”

Seeing no hope of survival, he wanted to reveal Purple Firmament Immortal King’s actions to the public, including the Nine Heavens Lotus Embryo Body.

But who was Purple Firmament Immortal King? An old fox who had lived for tens of thousands of years, how could he let Geng Junsheng succeed?

Geng Junsheng’s words abruptly stopped halfway, unable to utter another sound.

In front of an Immortal King Peak, he was no different from an ant. Whether he lived or died, or was unable to make a sound, it was an easy matter.

In his panic, Geng Junsheng turned to run, but Beigong Yue gave him no such chance.

A sword light flashed, and when everyone looked again, all that remained was a mass of scattered flesh and blood; even his Primordial Spirit was shattered.

Seeing this scene, Ye Bufan, Zhao Ya, and Mu Lanzhi all felt a sense of satisfaction.

They had clearly seen everything Geng Junsheng had done. Such a shameless person simply did not deserve to live in this world; being cut into a thousand pieces was his best outcome.

Even Xuan Yuan Linglong stood by, her expression unperturbed. Only a despicable villain had died; he was no longer the Senior Brother Geng she had once yearned for.

Purple Firmament Immortal King waved his hand. Such matters meant nothing to him. His gaze once again fell upon Ye Bufan.

“Geng Junsheng got what he deserved, but only a few of you emerged from the entire Purple Firmament Immortal Pool. This matter still needs to be thoroughly investigated.

Tell me, how exactly did the people inside die?”

It must be said that an old fox who had lived for tens of thousands of years still had his methods. Purple Firmament Immortal King, with a few words, separated Geng Junsheng’s lie from Ye Bufan.

“How they died, don’t you know better than I do?”

Ye Bufan sneered, “You sent Geng Junsheng with ten Great Luo Immortal Peaks into the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool, precisely to kill the Disciples of the various Schools.

Everything was your doing. As a dignified Immortal King, do you dare to do it but not admit it?”

“Nonsense.”

Purple Firmament Immortal King shook his head, “All who entered were elites of my Zixiao Heaven, all were my Disciples. How could I do something that would cripple myself?”

As a cunning and sly individual, he was well aware that some of those present had already grown suspicious of him.

It was precisely because of this that he did not act directly. If he were to kill the Young man in front of him on the spot, it could easily arouse the suspicion of the Five Great Sects.

As an Immortal King Peak-level expert, he wasn't afraid of retaliation from others, but he feared them pondering his motives.

If they eventually connected it to Xuan Yuan Linglong and thought of the Nine Heavens Lotus Embryo Body, it would be bad.

According to his plan, pinning the blame for the massacre of these Disciples on Ye Bufan, and then having the people from the Five Great Sects kill him, would be the most perfect outcome.

He certainly didn't make this decision lightly. He had previously conducted a detailed investigation into Ye Bufan’s past.

He knew that although this man had many women, he was deeply devoted to each one and would never betray or abandon them.

Therefore, he was certain that Ye Bufan would not publicly reveal the secret of the Nine Heavens Lotus Embryo Body. But in doing so, the other party would be unable to explain his motive for acting, and thus unable to convince others.

Ye Bufan was very clear about what this old fellow was thinking, but did he really believe that this meant he had no way out?

He smiled mockingly, “Immortal King, have you ever considered a problem?”

Purple Firmament Immortal King’s eyes flickered, “What do you mean?”

“It’s about the xuan ying stone. I don’t just have one.”

Ye Bufan finished speaking and flipped his wrist, another xuan ying stone appearing in his palm.

“This…”

Purple Firmament Immortal King’s expression changed. He wanted to directly kill the Young man in front of him, but doing so would indirectly confirm the other party’s statement.

After much hesitation, he still held back from attacking. In his opinion, the other party was likely bluffing with the xuan ying stone.

But the subsequent image completely dispelled his thought. Geng Junsheng’s face reappeared before everyone, and behind him were the nine Great Luo Immortal Peaks wearing golden masks. Seeing that there really was a scene from inside the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool, Purple Firmament Immortal King immediately realized something was wrong. He flicked his finger, and a sharp gust of wind shot towards the xuan ying stone.

An Immortal King Peak made a move. Although it was just a gust of wind, it possessed the power to destroy the heavens and earth.

But just then, a figure flashed, and another red light shot out from behind Ye Bufan, colliding with the gust of wind.

It was Situ Dianmo who made the move. She had been guarding nearby, constantly vigilant, absolutely unwilling to let her man get hurt.

With a bang, the red light dissipated, and the gust of wind shot out by Purple Firmament Immortal King was also completely shattered, dissipating into the Void Realm.

At this, everyone’s expressions changed. Those present were all powerful individuals, and anyone could see that this move was on par with Purple Firmament Immortal King’s.

Such a young woman possessing such formidable strength—what kind of Prodigies surrounded this man?

Even Zi Du Xian Wang was startled. He had previously activated his intelligence System but had not been able to find Situ Dianmo's origin or background, yet he hadn't expected her strength to be so formidable.

An Immortal King Peak-level expert was enough to change many things. The situation was far from as simple as they had imagined.

And while everyone was momentarily stunned, Geng Junsheng’s arrogant laughter came from the image of the xuan ying stone.

“Disheartened? How could I be?

Isn’t there you, the scapegoat?

The people here were all killed by you, all for you to seize resources, all because you are inhumane, all because you are brutal.

So the deaths of these people will all be blamed on you. Although you have already died in here, the people of the Five Great Sects will come for your women.

Under the leadership of Immortal King, they won’t fare well either!”

In the silent air, this voice sounded incredibly harsh, simultaneously shaking everyone's minds.

There was no longer any doubt. What Ye Bufan had said earlier was entirely true: Purple Firmament Immortal King had indeed sent people to kill the Disciples who entered the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool.

After a brief shock, the hearts of these people were filled with anger.

Lei Dong was Lei Potian’s most beloved Disciple. At this moment, he no longer had the composure to stand by and watch, his deep voice filled with rage.

“Immortal King, why is this?

You yourself opened the Purple Firmament Immortal Pool, so why did you act against our Disciples?”

The others did not speak, but they all looked over in unison, their eyes filled with shock, anger, and confusion.
