Having many children brings many blessings; the struggle for power begins with marriage.

Hearing Duanhun Xianjun's words, Lu Chen's face remained calm. He knew perfectly well why Duanhun Xianjun and the others hadn't killed him—they wanted to use him to lure out Yun Yudie.

Unfortunately, these people's plans are going to fail.

Seeing that Lu Chen was not flustered at all, the Soul-Severing Immortal Lord frowned, sensing that something was amiss.

At that moment, Lu Chen chose to self-destruct without hesitation.

The Soul-Severing Immortal Lord finally realized, "Oh no! He's going to self-destruct!!!"

As soon as the Immortal Lord of Broken Souls finished speaking, a massive destructive force spread from Lu Chen to the entire Blood Fiend Realm.

Immortal Lord Duanhun hurriedly activated the Blood Fiend Pearl, leading Immortal Lord Yulong and Immortal Lord Tiansha away from the Blood Fiend Realm.

The power of the Celestial Immortal's self-destruction was not enough to destroy the Blood Fiend Realm, but Lu Chen's self-destruction destroyed many of the restrictions within the Blood Fiend Realm.

After leaving the Blood Fiend Pearl with the Heavenly Fiend Immortal and the Jade Dragon Immortal, the Soul-Severing Immortal Lord looked at the cracks on the Blood Fiend Pearl and couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken. As a pseudo-heavenly-grade immortal artifact, it had been damaged like this, and it would require a lot of materials to repair it again.

Jade Dragon Immortal Lord sighed deeply. He had originally wanted to capture Chen Lu and claim it as his own achievement, but Chen Lu was so decisive that he simply self-destructed when he realized he couldn't escape.

"I didn't expect him to be so decisive. It has impressed me. I thought that righteous immortals were all cowards who feared death," said the Heavenly Fiend Immortal Lord.

Upon hearing Tian Sha Immortal Lord's words, Jade Dragon Immortal Lord felt somewhat embarrassed. Why did he feel that Tian Sha Immortal Lord was talking about him?

At this moment, Jade Dragon Immortal Lord said, "What do you two special envoys plan to do next? Chen Lu probably reported the Jade Dragon Sect's affairs when he entered the Jade Dragon Sect. Perhaps the Profound Moon Palace will send someone again soon."

"Moreover, after Chen Lu died, the soul lamp or life jade tablet he left in the Xuan Yue Palace was probably also broken."

If Chen Lu had reported the abnormality of the Jade Dragon Sect to the Profound Moon Palace from the beginning, as long as Chen Lu was still alive, the Profound Moon Palace might not have sent anyone. They would have contacted Chen Lu to verify first. But now Chen Lu is dead, and it happened after the abnormality of the Jade Dragon Sect was reported. Even a fool would know that it was the Jade Dragon Sect that did it.

After pondering for a moment, the Soul-Severing Immortal Lord said, "It seems we must retreat as soon as possible."

Originally, Immortal Lord Duanhun planned to use the Jade Dragon Sect as a springboard to send in more Blood Eagle Hall disciples, but now, given the situation, he had no choice but to have the Jade Dragon Sect members evacuate as well.

Immortal Lord of Broken Souls then said, "I will first report to the Palace Master, and once the Palace Master issues the order, we will leave the Jade Dragon Sect immediately."

Although they also planned to leave the Jade Dragon Sect, they couldn't just leave whenever they wanted; it depended on how their sect leader arranged things.

Immortal Lord Duanhun then took out a communication jade tablet and reported the events that had occurred at Jade Dragon Sect to Immortal King Guisha.

Meanwhile, at the Blood Eagle Palace.

Ghost Peak.

A map projection of the Xuan Yue Palace appeared in front of the Ghost Fiend Immortal King. The Xuan Yue Palace had a vast territory, and it was not easy to break through from any place. The vast territory gave the Xuan Yue Palace enough reaction time.

No matter where the breakthrough occurs, the Xuan Yue Palace can react quickly. Most importantly, the Xuan Yue Palace has a large number of affiliated sects.

Therefore, the Blood Eagle Hall's current strategy is to try to win over the affiliated sects of the Profound Moon Hall. This has several advantages. On the one hand, it can weaken the overall strength of the Profound Moon Hall. Most importantly, it can weaken the Profound Moon Hall's immortal fortune. On the other hand, after winning over these affiliated sects, it will be easier for the Blood Eagle Hall's disciples to enter the Profound Moon Hall and cause trouble.

As long as Blood Eagle Hall manages to infiltrate enough sects, when Blood Eagle Hall launches a full-scale attack on Profound Moon Hall, Blood Eagle Hall can infiltrate from many places, making it impossible for Profound Moon Hall to defend against.

Just then, the Ghost Fiend Immortal King's gaze fell upon the Jade Dragon Sect. Among the affiliated sects of the Profound Moon Palace, the Jade Dragon Sect was considered a sect of medium strength. Moreover, the Jade Dragon Sect was located in a relatively remote place, making it difficult to be detected. This place could serve as a stronghold.

Just as Ghost Fiend Immortal King was thinking this, he suddenly sensed the fluctuation of immortal power from the jade tablet. Ghost Fiend Immortal King then took out the jade tablet from his spatial ring and read the information inside.

"Um?"

When he heard that Yun Yudie's personal disciple had died by self-destruction, Ghost Fiend Immortal King was slightly surprised. He did not expect to encounter such a good thing after turning Jade Dragon Sect against them.

However, it must be said that the living are more useful than the dead.

If Chen Lu were still alive, they could use him to lure Yun Yudie away from the territory of Xuan Yue Palace. Most importantly, they could use Chen Lu to force Yun Yudie to hand over Xu Jingshu.

Xu Jingshu is extremely important to the Blood Eagle Palace; she is the key to whether they can obtain the title of Immortal Venerable.

Now, the Blood Demon Immortal King only needs a suitable Immortal Lord-level furnace to break through to the Immortal Venerable realm. This is why Xu Jingshu was sent to Tianlang City to absorb blood energy. As a result, Xuan Yue Palace and Chi Yan Sect not only did not fight, but Xu Jingshu also got into trouble.

Logically speaking, Xu Jingshu possessed many life-saving techniques left behind by the Blood Demon Immortal King. Even though Xu Jingshu did not actively use those life-saving techniques, the Blood Demon Immortal King still left his final mark on her.

If Xu Jingshu were in any danger, the Blood Demon Immortal King would be able to detect it immediately. However, Xu Jingshu disappeared without any warning, and even the mark left by the Blood Demon Immortal King was erased.

At this moment, Ghost Fiend Immortal King pondered for a moment. His idea of ​​exchanging Chen Lu for Xu Jingshu had failed. There was nothing he could do about it. The other party had self-destructed too decisively. It was estimated that Xuan Yue Palace already knew about Lu Chen's death and would soon send people to attack Yu Long Sect.

Thinking of this, Ghost Fiend Immortal King suddenly had an idea: if he set up a trap in Jade Dragon Sect and then sent a large number of Blood Eagle Hall people to infiltrate Jade Dragon Sect, no matter how many people Xuan Yue Hall sent, they would all die.

The main reason why Xuan Yue Palace is difficult to attack is that its cities and affiliated forces are all protected by formations. With the blessing of Xuan Yue Palace's immortal fortune, these formations have become extremely powerful. It would take a lot of time for Blood Eagle Palace to eliminate those cities and affiliated sects one by one.

Now that Chen Lu, the personal disciple of the Xuan Yue Palace Master, has died in the Jade Dragon Sect, the Xuan Yue Palace will surely send a large number of disciples to attack the Jade Dragon Sect.

Without the protection of the formation, and given that the evil immortals' power is inherently quite effective against righteous immortals, those sent by the Xuan Yue Palace to attack the Jade Dragon Sect will likely perish there.

As for whether Yun Yudie will personally destroy the Jade Dragon Sect, there is no need to worry. If Yun Yudie does take action, then she will have to end her seclusion.

One of the reasons why the Blood Eagle Palace launched the invasion so quickly was that Yun Yudie had gone into seclusion, seemingly to break through to the Immortal Venerable realm. If she were to emerge from seclusion to avenge her personal disciple, she would be unable to break through to the Immortal Venerable realm, which would pose no threat to the Blood Eagle Palace.

If Yun Yudie doesn't leave seclusion, then the Jade Dragon Sect will be a suitable bait. (End of Chapter)
