Swordholder

"Heh, Patriarch Kang, are you mistaken about something?"

At this moment, Zhu Xin lightly jumped and landed in front of Chen Yuan, looking up at the many magic boats in the sky.

All eyes immediately fell on her.

Chen Yuan was not surprised to see Zhu Xin appear.

Zhu Xin was his ally and Nuomi's aunt, and he had expected her to come.

Thank you.

Chen Yuan said in a low voice.

You should always show sufficient respect to those who care about you.

"Heh, little guy, you knew I'd come to help you, so you killed that Kang Fu?"

Zhu Xin looked at Chen Yuan and said quietly.

"No, it's not that. If he wants to kill me, I'll kill him. It's that simple."

Chen Yuan nodded seriously, "What's more, he was the one who pointed at my nose and started yelling at me first."

"Wow, you've got guts."

Zhu Xin said jokingly, then looked at the glutinous rice on the side.

"Auntie, oh my god, you're here! I've missed you so much!"

Nuomi immediately called out sweetly.

She knew Zhu Xin could back them up, so she went all out.

Zhu Xin was stunned for a moment. She had never heard Nuomi call her that before, but she quickly understood what was going on and gave a soft snort.

"Zhu Xin, what do you mean?"

Kang Changqing looked down at Zhu Xin and said coldly.

Zhu Xin glanced at him sideways and said sarcastically:

"Chen Yuan killed Kang Tianzhen in a fair contest witnessed by Prefect Song."

"He was less skilled, so he deserved to die."

"As for your steward Kang Fu, he was arrogant and domineering, daring to be disrespectful to our Wuxiang Division Chief, and even tried to kill us first. Our Wuxiang Division was forced to kill him in self-defense!"

Upon hearing this, Kang Changqing's expression froze, and his gaze instantly turned extremely gloomy!

"What? Does the patriarch of a prestigious family like yours intend to personally deal with a junior?"

Zhu Xin stood with her hands behind her back, staring directly at Kang Changqing, and said angrily, "I, Zhu Xin, am the first to object!"

Kang Changqing's pupils contracted, and his mind raced.

Now that Zhu Xin is protecting him, he can no longer take down Chen Yuan by relying solely on the power of the Kang family.

Now it seems that the only way is to unite with the powerful families around us.

Immediately, he looked at the many clan leaders beside him and whispered, "That kid advanced so quickly, it seems that he must have obtained a great opportunity in the secret realm of the God and Demon Ruins!"

It's probably not just top-grade pills and holy-grade pills, but also other extraordinary spiritual treasures!

Why don't we join forces and force him to hand over the elixirs and the location of the secret realm?

Upon hearing this, the heads of the Black Wolf Clan, the Sky Eagle Clan, the Ling Family, and even the Liao Family all revealed a glint in their eyes.

At the same time, they also understood why Zhu Xin would help Chen Yuan.

That's probably why.

"hehe!"

The head of the Ling family was a refined middle-aged man. He took a step forward, holding a folding fan, and said with a smile, "We can put aside the matter of Chen Yuan killing Kang Zhen for now."

Kang Changqing snorted coldly, his face ashen, and remained silent.

The murder of the butler could be a big deal or a small one.

Being killed by a human, and you can't immediately get revenge?

That's shameful!

However, the most important thing now is to figure out why Chen Yuan advanced so quickly, and also the location of that secret realm that the other party mentioned before.

"Yes, let's put it aside for now."

The Black Wolf Clan Chieftain's gaze turned sinister as he fixed it on Chen Yuan, and he asked in a cold voice:

"Boy, tell us, where exactly is the secret realm where you obtained the Heavenly Grade Pill and the Saint Grade Pill?"

"And your cultivation has advanced so quickly, is it because you obtained an even more extraordinary treasure?"

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone stared at Chen Yuan, their eyes burning with fervor.

If it weren't for Zhu Xin protecting them, they probably wouldn't have bothered with any more words and would have just arrested them.

Even Zhu Xin looked surprised.

The hunched old woman beside her was the same; her cloudy eyes suddenly shone brightly.

"The reason why my cultivation level has advanced so quickly is indeed due to the fact that I obtained some extraordinary treasures in that secret realm."

Chen Yuan spoke.

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes narrowed and their breathing became heavy.

Even the old woman from the Zhu family had a gleam in her eyes.

"Girl, you asked me to protect this human boy before, but I was unwilling. Now I understand."

The hunched old woman spoke in a hoarse voice, then glanced at the many figures in the air, and lightly tapped her cane.

"Get out of here, all of you. This kid is my granddaughter's friend. I won't allow you to bully him like this."

boom!

A terrifying power emanated from the hunched old woman, like a tidal wave, nearly overturning the magic boat and spaceship in the void!

Kang Changqing, the Black Wolf Clan Chief, the Sky Eagle Clan Chief, and others had drastic changes in expression.

Even Chen Yuan and Li Wei were shocked.

Purple Mansion!

This old woman is definitely a True Immortal of the Purple Mansion Realm!

"Hmph, Zhu Li, this opportunity isn't something your family can swallow up!"

Kang Changqing steadied himself and spoke with a ferocious grin.

"Is this how Kang Shou teaches his descendants? How dare they disrespect their elders?"

The hunchbacked old woman was named Zhu Li, and she was the supreme elder of the Zhu family.

At this moment, his eyes were cold and sharp. He stomped his cane lightly again, and with a hum, an invisible pressure descended from the sky, pressing down on Kang Changqing like a boulder!

"Kneel down and speak!"

Zhu Li spoke coldly.

"ah······"

Kang Changqing roared, his muscles bulging, transforming him into a giant humanoid rhinoceros!

Chen Yuan couldn't suppress it, so he knelt down in public?

Then Kang Changqing would lose even more face.

boom!

Just then, from the direction of Tianqing County City, a deafening roar suddenly came, and several figures let out long howls, their power overwhelming, and suddenly rushed into the clouds from those buildings.

In the blink of an eye, several black dots magnified instantly and landed on the decks of some spaceships above Palm Lake.

Upon seeing these figures, the family patriarchs, who were initially shocked by Zhu Li's terrifying strength, were overjoyed.

He then bowed respectfully!

"Greetings, Ancestor!"

The voices paying homage to the ancestor echoed throughout heaven and earth, possessing immense power.

boom!

Just then, one of the burly old men stepped forward with imposing aura, shattering the oppressive aura emanating from Kang Changqing.

"Zhu Li, what business is it of yours how I, Kang Shou, teach my descendants?"

The visitor was none other than Kang Shou, the patriarch of the Kang family.

He looked down at Zhu Li and spoke with a cold expression.

Kang Changqing was covered in sweat. When he saw the person who came, he shrank back and bowed with a shameful expression, "Old... Ancestor."

"Disgraceful thing."

Kang Shou glanced at him coldly and said disdainfully, "Get out of here."

"·····"

Kang Changqing felt a tightness in his throat, as if a dead rat had been forced into it, causing him immense discomfort.

He glared at Chen Yuan below and awkwardly retreated to the side.

Below, Li Wei's Adam's apple bobbed, and he spoke in a hoarse voice, "Damn it, A Yuan, what do we do? More than a dozen Purple Mansion True Persons have arrived?"

Chen Yuan's gaze was also gloomy.

He hadn't expected that the position of prefect would actually mobilize all these beings of the Purple Mansion realm.

Most of them in the prefectural city are probably patriarchs.

"There's nothing I can do. I'm at their mercy. I'll just have to confess."

Chen Yuan answered in a low voice, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

Li Wei felt a sudden, inexplicable chill run down his spine.

He knew more or less about Chen Yuan and Chen Qingcang's plans.

Looking back now, it was absolutely insane!

"Grandma, can you handle it?"

Zhu Xin gave Zhu Li a strange look and asked in a low voice.

Zhu Li rolled her eyes at her, annoyed, and stopped talking.

Damn it, the situation is beyond her control. She can't protect Chen Yuan anymore, let alone have him all to herself.

Seeing that Zhu Li was speechless under his imposing aura, Kang Shou snorted coldly, his gaze falling on Chen Yuan, and said authoritatively,

"Kid, did you get all those opportunities from that secret realm?"

In an instant, the gazes of more than ten purple palaces fell on Chen Yuan.

That gaze seemed to have a weight on it, making it hard for him to breathe, as if a mountain was pressing down on his heart.

"yes!"

Chen Yuan gritted his teeth and spoke with great resentment.

Everyone narrowed their eyes, their expressions filled with excitement.

"Where is that secret realm?"

Kang Shou spoke again.

Chen Yuan hesitated.

"Hehe, you can choose not to answer, but the consequence is death. Not only will you die, but the Chen family behind you will also die!"

Everyone must die. This is the consequence of your defiance.

Kang Shou spoke coldly, his chilling killing intent causing Chen Yuan and the others to turn pale instantly.

"Wow...that's amazing!"

Li Wei trembled all over, his lips quivering as he spoke.

Even Chen Yuan's gaze sharpened.

The Purple Palace and the Yellow Court are like heaven and earth.

He once thought that a Yellow Court Great Perfection cultivator could fight against a Purple Mansion early stage cultivator.

Looking back now, it's simply a joke!

"In the Blood Demon Cave!"

Chen Yuan sighed heavily and spoke helplessly.

Evil Blood Demon Cave?

When those four words were spoken, everyone was stunned.

But some people sneered, "Hmph, Chen Yuan, do you think we're fools?"

Chen Yuan glanced at the person who spoke and said loudly, "I once fell into the Evil Blood Demon Cave by chance. Of course, I didn't enter through the temple on Evil Burial Mountain, but through another entrance."

"Therefore, the reason why our Chen family members were able to survive when they were teleported into the Evil Blood Demon Cave during the last conference is also because of this."

"However, the Evil Blood Demon Cave is fraught with danger. Even with my experience, more than half of my clansmen have died."

At this point, anger and sorrow appeared in Chen Yuan's eyes.

The commotion here also attracted the attention of the rest of Tianqing County.

So from the very beginning, many people have set their sights on this place.

Upon hearing Chen Yuan's words, he suddenly realized the truth.

That's it!

No wonder half of the Chen family members were able to come out of the Evil Blood Demon Cave after being imprisoned there!

The visiting aristocratic families had investigated these matters and quickly understood their initial doubts.

However, soon, the crowd became restless.

"My God, does this mean the Evil Blood Demon Cave contains Heavenly Grade pills, or even Saint Grade pills?"

"How is that possible? How could that place possibly possess pills of such high quality?"

······

Many people became restless, while others began to question it.

"Chen Yuan, how could a mere Evil Blood Demon Cave possess Saint-grade pills?"

The Black Wolf Clan Chieftain's eyes gleamed with bloodlust as he spoke with a ferocious grin.

The old wolf patriarch beside him was starting to lose his composure.

The effects of this sacred elixir are terrifyingly powerful. It can not only strengthen the physical body tenfold, but also transform one's body and increase magical power several times over.

No one can resist such temptation!

"Do you have any other information, such as which ancient sect's ruins are inside?"

The patriarch of the Ling family couldn't wait to speak.

This was an elderly woman with white hair, whose gaze was now burning with fervor.

"I remember seeing some tattered writing in those caves."

Chen Yuan spoke.

"What handwriting?"

Even Zhu Li couldn't hold back any longer and immediately spoke up.

If the Evil Blood Demon Cave is the remnant of an ancient sect, it still possesses the power to produce sacred-grade pills.

That would absolutely cause a sensation in both Tianshan and Tianqing counties!

"It seems to contain words like 'primordial... corpse transformation...'"

Chen Yuan pondered intently, then murmured something to himself.

"What? Could it be the Primordial Corpse Transformation Sect?!"

Based on Chen Yuan's words, Zhu Li immediately revealed the complete sect.

boom!

The crowd immediately became agitated, and their expressions changed drastically.
