Chapter 1100: Unexpected Encounter

Within the ruins of the Bone Demon Blood Sect.

Feng Wuyan, the Great Divination Master, released a golden domain, which enveloped an area of five kilometers in radius.

Two blood-robed supreme beings stood beside him with boundless and terrifying auras emanating from their bodies.

They were none other than the Blood Tribe’s Holy Disciples, Cassidy and Tobias.

As for Merlin, he was tracking down the enemy using all the resources that the Blood Tribe could mobilize.

“The enemy team only consists of a few people; three to four at most. Moreover, they have members who are extremely skilled with lightning, fire, and swordsmanship… In fact, they even possess some high-tech weapons, which are formed from a combination of cultivation and technology.” Feng Wuyan pointed toward someplace in the east. “Judging by the marks on the ground, the wind direction, and the circulation of vital energy, they’ve most likely fled in that direction.”

Cassidy frowned slightly. “Toward the east? If I remember correctly, there’s no large-scale sect situated over in that direction…”

Rumble…

A rumble boomed across the sky.

A blood-like crimson glow blotted out the heavens.

A male who was dressed in an emperor robe decorated with blood-red dragons appeared from behind the cloud layers. His face was expressionless as he swept his gaze over the marks of the battle, and the power of his divine sense spread out without reservation!

“Emperor Yi Deng.” Tobias nodded respectfully.

“Holy Disciple Cassidy, Holy Disciple Tobias.” Emperor Yi Deng also nodded in greeting.

The standing of Holy Disciples was extremely high, so much so that it was almost on the same level as the Blood Tribe emperors of the Dao Integration Stage. Thus, they interacted with each other as equals, and there was no notion of one being more superior than the other.

Feng Wuyan, who was merely at the Return to Void Final Stage, bowed respectfully after seeing Emperor Yi Deng arrive.

After exchanging information, they all flew toward a certain direction together…

Cassidy secretly transmitted a message to Tobias.

“Tobias, why is Emperor Yi Deng so proactive about this matter? He didn’t hesitate for a moment before deciding to hurry over. It’s almost as if he’s afraid that the culprit is going to escape. Is he hiding something from us?”

Tobias nodded and secretly replied, “Perhaps it’s someone that Emperor Yi Deng is familiar with? Or perhaps it’s a foe of his? Anyhow, I have no idea what he’s basing his deductions off. I’m pretty sure that he didn’t receive much information at the time, yet he still rushed over just like that. It’s indeed odd. In any case, this isn’t a big deal. The end result will still be the same regardless. Anyone who dares to ruin the Holy Leader’s plans must die!”

…

At this moment, in the western region of the Dark Marshlands.

An Lin was flying on his black brick.

“I have an ominous feeling,” Xu Xiaolan suddenly whispered. “It feels like there are enemies bearing down on us.”

“Don’t worry, we merely obliterated a single sect,” An Lin reassured. “Ignoring the fact that they mightn’t even be able to track us down, we’ll be able to deal with the enemies even if they’re supreme beings of the Return to Void Pinnacle Stage. If they really do discover us, we’ll fend them off as we escape.”

“What if the enemy is a super mighty being of the Dao Integration Stage?” Xu Xiaolan retorted.

“Heh, you think it’s that easy to shock a super mighty being of the Dao Integration Stage into action? Such mighty figures will definitely ponder carefully before deciding whether to act or not. At that time, we’ll have already escaped back into the territory of the Nine States. Who’ll be able to catch us then?” An Lin replied with utmost confidence.

Then, a boundless stretch of red clouds suddenly appeared on the distant horizon.

“An Lin, behind us!” Xu Xiaolan exclaimed in alarm.

An Lin sucked in a deep breath. He had already detected it with his powerful divine sense. “Stop looking! Hurry, crush the Heavenly Court Jade Seal and call for reinforcements! Crush the highest-ranked jade seal!”

Xu Xiaolan immediately crushed a jade seal, which released a location-tracking aura. Then, she asked in a panicked voice, “What rank is the enemy?”

“Dao Integration Stage…” An Lin replied with great difficulty.

“Did I jinx us?” Xu Xiaolan muttered in an upset tone. She was almost on the verge of tears.

“Don’t mention it, it’s not your fault.” An Lin was also on the verge of having a breakdown.

Sh*t!

He had just said that supreme beings of the Dao Integration Stage wouldn’t be shocked into action so easily. Now what? They were charging over without any hesitation! Moreover, they had discovered their location extremely easily!

It was almost as though…

They knew that they would escape in this direction!

Can it be that the super mighty being has caught onto something?

An Lin felt the crushing power possessed by the red clouds in the distance as he released the full power of his divine sense. That power was especially vast, and it contained an irrepressible might and hostility.

It was drawing closer and closer…

An imposing and majestic voice traveled over from the distance. “I’ll give you ten seconds. If you stop resisting, I’ll give you a painless death.”

Rumble…

The red clouds started to flood throughout the entire sky. Blood-like fluid churned and bubbled, and the thick smell of blood permeated the air. A male who was dressed in an emperor robe decorated with blood-red dragons leaped over at a startling speed.

As expected, it’s a supreme being of the Dao Integration Stage!

Xu Xiaolan’s face became pale, and her heartbeat quickened.

“You want to escape after killing several Return to Void Stage cultivators of my Blood Tribe? You really think that the Dark Marshlands is a place where you can come and go as you please?”

A crisp and pleasant cry traveled over from the distance.

Three supreme beings of the Blood Tribe appeared behind Emperor Yi Deng.

Two of them were dressed in white Holy Disciple robes, and one of them was dressed in a golden-blood cloak.

They were none other than the Holy Disciples—Cassidy and Tobias—as well as the Great Divination Master, Feng Wuyan!

An Lin and Xu Xiaolan detected the majestic-looking Cassidy and Tobias.

Cassidy and Tobias also saw the frantically fleeing An Lin and Xu Xiaolan.

Cassidy and Tobias, who were teeming with killing intent, were instantly stupefied.

The grim and panicked-looking An Lin and Xu Xiaolan were also stupefied.

In their eyes, this current situation was indescribably absurd…

Is there something wrong? Cassidy’s beautiful eyes widened in shock.

I went all out to chase after the enemies who ruined the Holy Leader’s plan, yet the enemy who I was chasing after was the Holy Leader himself?!

An Lin was also momentarily stunned by this unexpected encounter.

The enemies pursuing me are actually my slaves?

This has to be a joke!

“Was it you two who killed Balck and Starbucks of the Bone Demon Blood Sect, Simpson of the Heavenly Scorpion Sect, and Eliza of the Red Snow Sect?” Emperor Yi Deng’s voice was like booming thunder, and there was an intense gaze in his eyes.

He made a grabbing motion with his hand, and the void within a fifty-kilometer radius was instantly sealed by a terrifying spatial power!

This was a cage formed by a super mighty being of the Dao Integration Stage, thus An Lin and Xu Xiaolan had nowhere left to escape.

After coming to his senses, An Lin immediately replied in a panicky voice, “Hah? What Balck? Senior, what are you saying? I’m merely an ordinary cultivator of the Soul Formation Stage!”

“That’s right, we’re merely land surveyors sent over by the humans!” Xu Xiaolan instantly understood An Lin’s intentions and also started blabbering nonsense.

Their only option right now was to buy time and wait for Daddy Heavenly Court’s reinforcements!

Emperor Yi Deng frowned deeply. The two people before him were indeed of the Soul Formation Stage; this couldn’t be faked. However, how could two cultivators of the Soul Formation Stage kill four supreme beings of the Return to Void Stage and also massacre thousands of other Blood Tribe cultivators?

This was not only ridiculous, but it was also practically impossible…

Could it be that he had caught the wrong people?

No! Last year, his son had also lost to an abnormally powerful cultivator of the Soul Formation Stage!

Moreover, the identity of that cultivator had already been determined.

It was highly likely that that cultivator was also his son’s murderer.

I’ve got it… So that’s how it is!

No wonder this male looks so familiar…

“So it’s you, An Lin!” Emperor Yi Deng roared in fury.

An Lin: “…”
