Qingyue Gate.

A black stick swiftly arrived from afar and stopped at the peak of the sixth peak.

Above the stick were Chi Yuan and Li Hong, who had returned from Liuli City.

This time, they rushed back at full speed almost every moment, taking less than ten days to return.

After stopping in the sky above the South Peak, Chi Yuan directly waved his hand and threw Li Hong out.

"You stay here, I'll go find Old Li."

"Make sure Lao Jin returns safely!"

After speaking, he rushed straight towards the main peak of the sect.

This is the courtyard where Li Tianhua resides.

As the elder of the sect, he usually stays in his own residence, handling sect affairs.

Unless something major happens, he generally doesn't go out.

And usually, no one would disturb him here.

However, today, Li Tianhua was sitting by the window, dealing with some recent sect matters, when he suddenly frowned.

The next moment, with a bang, his room door was kicked open from the outside, and a sturdy figure rushed in.

"Old Li!"

As soon as Chi Yuan entered, he shouted angrily, then stared with his big eyes like copper bells, standing in front of Li Tianhua.

"I told you to send someone to assist Tang Tian, why are you still dragging your feet?"

"He's in danger at any moment!"

Chi Yuan slapped the table in front of him, and if it weren't for Li Tianhua resolving his strength in time, the table would have been scrapped.

Looking at Chi Yuan's angry and anxious face, Li Tianhua sighed and said, "It's been hundreds of years, and you still have this impulsive nature."

"With your attitude, it's difficult to become the master of a peak, let alone go further."

Chi Yuan slapped the table again. "To hell with the peak master!"

"If Tang Tian really can't come back, I will definitely take care of that little bastard Tian Yangsheng!"

Li Tianhua frowned. "Chi Yuan, can you calm down?"

"Regardless of whether you have the ability or not, just Tian Yangsheng's background alone is not something you can afford to provoke, understand?"

Chi Yuan coldly snorted. "I didn't grow up eating dry food. I naturally have the ability to deal with him!"

"As for his background, what bullshit is that?"

"Kill him, what use is his background?"

Looking at Chi Yuan, who was full of fierceness, Li Tianhua shook his head helplessly.

After hundreds of years, this guy hasn't changed at all.

But Chi Yuan is a lone wolf, without any attachments, so it's possible for him to do such a thing.

After a pause, Li Tianhua asked with some confusion, "You don't have much connection with this Tang Tian, right?"

"He just supported the construction of your sixth peak. If the sect relaxes its regulations, many people have enough financial resources to support you."

"Is it worth sacrificing your own future and life for him?"

Chi Yuan looked at Li Tianhua coldly and said in a harsh tone, "That's none of your business."

"I'll do whatever I want."

Li Tianhua looked at him and sighed again, then stood up.

"Ah Yuan, although many unexpected things have happened over the years, we were once comrades fighting side by side, with a bond of life and death."

"I really don't want to see you stand on the wrong side again."

"Last time, you luckily saved your life, but this time, it might not be the case."

Chi Yuan didn't say anything.

But there were some emotional fluctuations in his eyes, which Li Tianhua noticed.

"Is it because of Zhulin Daoist?"

Li Tianhua furrowed his brows and asked.

Upon hearing this name, Chi Yuan immediately turned his head away.

Although he didn't deny it, his action had already given the answer.

Li Tianhua sighed again. "It's been such a long time, and you still can't let go of that matter?"

"I've said it countless times, it's not your fault."

Chi Yuan turned his head and stared at Li Tianhua. "How is it not my fault?"

"If I hadn't been deceived and fought for that damn position, how could those beasts have seized the opportunity?"

"How could Senior Zhulin possibly die so tragically in the Purple Bamboo Courtyard?"

Li Tianhua shook his head. This matter had become a demon in Chi Yuan's heart.

After a moment of silence, Chi Yuan's emotions eased a bit. Looking at the sky outside the window, his eyes were filled with reminiscence.

"You know, my background is not good, and my talent is not comparable to those geniuses."

"Everyone around me told me that I was destined to be mediocre in this lifetime, only able to become the lowest level tool."

"It was Senior Zhulin who inspired me, helped me, made me stop doubting myself, and overcame the doubts from the outside world."

"He is the person I respect the most in my life."

Li Tianhua fell silent and asked, "But what does this have to do with Tang Tian?"

"Just because he also lives in the Purple Bamboo Courtyard?"

Chi Yuan took a deep breath.

"Yes, and no."

"After learning that he also lives in the Purple Bamboo Courtyard, I always felt a sense of familiarity with him."

"I don't know if this is a kind of self-psychological suggestion, but this feeling truly exists."

Li Tianhua furrowed his brows. "Is Tang Tian similar to Senior Zhulin?"

Chi Yuan shook his head.

"Not at all, you could even say that there is no similarity whatsoever."

"Senior Zhulin had a broad mind, was friendly to everyone, and treated everyone equally."

"But Tang Tian, as long as no one crosses his principles, everything is fine. But if someone steps over his bottom line, they will definitely see his ferocious side."

"But for some reason, when I see him, I always feel like I'm seeing Senior Zhulin."

"Since I met Tang Tian, it has been the quietest period for my inner demons in hundreds of years."

"So, Old Li."

Chi Yuan turned to look at Li Tianhua and said seriously, "I really don't want to see Tang Tian die like this, especially in the midst of power struggles."

"Please help me."

"Please!"

Seeing Chi Yuan so serious for the first time, Li Tianhua couldn't help but fall silent.

He was a participant in that incident back then, so he could understand Chi Yuan's strange state of mind to some extent.

But today's situation was even more difficult.

"We are well aware of the style of the War God Temple."

"When they decide to eliminate someone, they often send out the strongest person possible to ensure success."

"Moreover, Tian Yangsheng is the legitimate heir of a certain important figure, so the people he can find will undoubtedly be even more powerful."

"Even if we send reinforcements, it's likely to be of no use."

Li Tianhua said.

Chi Yuan shook his head. "Regardless, I have to give it a try."

"This is my last conviction."

"I'm begging you."

Li Tianhua sighed inwardly.

How could he continue to refuse when his former comrade made such a request?

In the end, he spoke, "Alright, then I'll..."

However, just as he said a few words, he froze in place, showing an expression of disbelief.

"What's wrong?"

Chi Yuan quickly asked.

Li Tianhua stood there in a daze for a while before slowly turning his head, speaking in an incredulous tone, "Master, I just received news..."

"Tian Yangsheng's soul lamp, it's extinguished!"

"At the same time, the War God Temple has three Profound Immortals and one Golden Immortal, and almost at the same time, all their soul lamps have been extinguished!"

He stared at Chi Yuan, a wildly absurd speculation forming in his mind.

Chi Yuan also realized it and widened his eyes in an instant.

"This can't be true!!!"

He exclaimed.
