Chapter 1222: Chapter 671 Chapter 1222: Chapter 671 “Song Huangdae said that the person contacted him again. This time, they asked him to closely monitor your schedule, Master, and to notify them immediately if there are signs of you leaving.”

Upon hearing Liu Wenbo’s words, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but raise his brow slightly, his mouth curling into a cold smile.

To monitor his movements–they were planning to make a move against him!

Just as the Extreme Sun Slash was perfected, he needed a few people to test its sharpness, and now someone delivered themselves to his doorstep.

“Now, openly in the Eastern Desolation, there are only so many at the Core Formation stage. To target me, if Nascent Soul Cultivators don’t come, at least three of the same rank are needed. I wonder where the Restoration Society is getting so many people from? It seems that Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace is about to make a move!”

Over the years, through Song Huangdae’s infiltration, Chen Mobai had discovered that the commands of the Restoration Society were consolidated to the Nanxuan sect at Treasure Color Mountain.

In the Eastern Desolation, things didn’t require as much evidence as the Immortal Gates did. With this discovery, Chen Mobai directly attributed the Restoration Society to the Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace.

After all, in the Eastern Desolation, after annihilating Shake Mountain Peak and Liu Jia Mountain, no one or power dared to probe the Divine Wood Sect like this anymore.

The Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace, having Nascent Soul Cultivators, was different. Although Fang Xuanyang was isolated in terms of power in the Eastern Desolation, with Golden Wind Ancestor behind him, he probably still looked down on the Eastern Desolation and was the most likely and motivated person to establish the Restoration Society.

After realizing this, Chen Mobai’s first thought was to take Mo Douguang and Fu Zongjue to Treasure Color Mountain to also slaughter Fang Xuanyang.

However, he hadn’t become arrogant to the point of disregarding everything. Although the Divine Wood Sect had fought a major war with the Nanxuan sect, after all, it was the Nanxuan sect that was in the wrong at that time.

If he went now and killed Fang Xuanyang without reason, Golden Wind Ancestor would definitely interfere if he wanted to remain influential in the East Land, and would send Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace Cultivators to the Eastern Desolation for revenge.

According to Chen Mobai’s plan, he intended to wait until Zhou Shengqing’s Nascent Soul Formation, and then deal with Fang Xuanyang and the Restoration Society.

But then he encountered the unexpected event of Ku Zhu returning from Nascent Soul Formation.

To avoid startling the snake, he could only let Fang Xuanyang live a few more years.

However, unexpectedly, his kindness was not appreciated at all by Fang Xuanyang, who now even planned to make a move against him.

Thinking of this, Chen Mobai silently took out the talisman paper given to him by Zhou Shengqing.

Although after mastering the Extreme Sun Slash, basically no Golden Core Cultivator could compete against him, the always cautious Chen Mobai decided to be more careful and also called Zhou Shengqing.

“Tell Song Huangdae to inform the Restoration Society that I will be inspecting the Eastern Desolation Plateau at the end of next month.”

“Yes, Master!”

Liu Wenbo nodded in agreement, but just as he was leaving, his face suddenly showed hesitation.

“Is there anything else?”

Seeing his eldest disciple’s expression, Chen Mobai couldn’t help but ask.

“Master, after the destruction of the Restoration Society, Du Feng, who was in contact with Song Huangdae, will no longer be of any use. Should he be dealt with?”

Since Song Huangdae had accurately transmitted several pieces of intelligence, he had almost gained complete trust from the Restoration Society.

And last time, when Zhou Shengqing broke through to the Nascent Soul stage, causing a surge in nature’s…”

…” Du Feng, seeking to find the cause, once again employed the method of contacting Song Huangdae, letting this disciple from Xiao Nanshan seek the truth.

Song Huangdae, who had long since turned from darkness to light, naturally immediately informed his Master Liu Wenbo, who then reported to Chen Mobai.

It was also Chen Mobai who proactively let Song Huangdae divulge that he had broken through to the Mid Foundation Establishment stage to cover up the fact that Zhou Shengqing had transformed into a Legal Body Nascent Soul, and at the same time, it was also to fish for information.

Clearly, the information about Chen Mobai reaching the Mid Foundation Establishment stage was of extremely great value.

Du Feng, after obtaining it, couldn’t wait to pass it on, then was discovered by Chen Mobai who was already prepared.

However, after Song Huangdae lured out this spy, Chen Mobai did not deal with him immediately.

The reason, naturally, was to be able to deliver a “precise” piece of intelligence, capturing Fang Xuanyang and the entire Restoration Society in one fell swoop.

Now, Liu Wenbo meant just that.

Chen Mobai, thinking of his and Zhou Shengqing’s forthcoming action, which would definitely completely fall out with Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace, realized there indeed was no need to keep Du Feng, an undercover agent, and nodded.

“Du Feng is a cultivator who survived the Five Elements Sect’s factional war, and his cultivation level is also at the Foundation Establishment Middle Stage. You are not his match; I will arrange a more powerful expert for you.”

Though Liu Wenbo, this eldest disciple, was mediocre in dueling, Chen Mobai wasn’t very reassured. Fortunately, Zheng Deming was returning to impart his Core Formation insights, so he would let him and Liu Wenbo go together to finish off Du Feng.

Wind Rain Hamlet.

Zhou Shengqing and Nu Jiang were playing chess, while Mo Douguang was drinking tea next to them.

At that moment, Zhou Shengqing’s face froze,

After placing the white piece, Nu Jiang saw Zhou Shengqing’s expression and couldn’t help but ask,

“Some guy pretending to be an obedient grandson no longer wants to pretend and is thinking about biting back.”

Zhou Shengqing sneered and placed his chess piece down,

“Oh, so the elder brother has finally shown his true capabilities after ‘Nascent Soul Formation,’ but this might affect our future plans to reclaim the Five Elements Sect!”

Nu Jiang, however, thought of another problem. Once Zhou Shengqing’s ‘Nascent Soul Formation’ was exposed, Zhou Ye would definitely be highly alert; entering the Hunyuan Immortal City might face some complications.

“I was only in the past suppressing the formation for Junior Brother Chen, and if it were me who made a move on Core Formation, there wouldn’t be any noise at all.”

Zhou Shengqing said a very confident phrase, causing Nu Jiang to nod repeatedly after hearing it.

The vast gap between Nascent Soul and Core Formation indeed warranted such a statement.

However, Zhou Shengqing had not mentioned another matter to Nu Jiang; his main reason for going there was to prevent the Golden Wind Ancestor from shamelessly coming in person.

“With Junior Brother Chen’s Sword Dao Realm, if the opponent is merely a Golden Core Cultivator, there’s absolutely no need for us to make a move.”

Mo Douguang couldn’t help but comment after hearing this.

Chen Mobai had a Fourth Order Sword at his disposal. Among all the Core Formation cultivators in the Eastern Wilderness, he was probably the only one who could rival them with the realm of Sword Wipeout Thunder Sound.

“One on one, naturally no one is a match for Junior Brother Chen, but what if there’s more than one?”

Zhou Shengqing uttered a phrase that surprised both Mo Douguang and Nu Jiang.

Above the Eastern Wilderness, there were only a handful of Core Formation cultivators not from their faction; moreover, given Zhou Ye’s character, he definitely wouldn’t leave the Hunyuan Immortal City.

“Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace!?”

A flash of realization crossed Nu Jiang’s mind, guessing the truth.

“Ha ha ha, Third Junior Brother is indeed clever. I hope the Golden Wind old ghost doesn’t send too many Core Formation cultivators; otherwise, if all are defeated by Junior Brother Chen, I fear he’ll directly surrender facing the Kong Sang Valley!”

Amidst Zhou Shengqing’s laughter, he completed his last chess move, decisively defeating Nu Jiang’s big dragon.

In Dongyi Mingjing Mountain.

In the grand hall of Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace, the Golden Wind Ancestor sat upright in his seat, flanked by six Core Formation cultivators in golden robes, each with distinct appearances.

“This time, the assassination of Chen Guixian from Divine Wood Sect will be handed over to Xuan Shu and Xuan Qi; you both must ensure he doesn’t escape. In coordination with Fang Xuanyang, execute him on the spot, then clean up the Eastern Desolation Plateau to establish our sect’s retreat.”

The Golden Wind Ancestor, with a stern demeanor, selected two individuals and Xuan Shu along with another elderly man of curious appearance stepped forward, respectfully saluting him.

“Ancestor, Chen Guixian has a Fourth Order Sword, and his cultivation level has now broken through to the Mid Foundation Establishment Stage. He will clearly be more troublesome. I’m worried about repeating the same scenario as with Ku Zhu. Perhaps we should also include Sisters Xuan Yi and Xuan Wo. With the five of us taking action and setting up the Golden Light Array, we surely won’t fail.”

The old man named Xuan Qi, evidently of a cautious character, had already reviewed the intelligence sent by Fang Xuanyang and voiced his opinion immediately after being selected.

“Just Chen Guixian, I alone am sufficient; Brother Xuan Qi can support me.”

But before the Golden Wind Ancestor could speak, Xuan Shu calmly made a very proud remark.

“Junior Brother, unless I am remembering wrong, the last time you went to the Eastern Wilderness, you had an encounter with the newly formed Core Chen Guixian. With your late stage of Core Formation, you could only manage a draw with him.”

Xuan Qi, furrowing his brow, mentioned something that caused Xuan Shu’s expression to turn cold.

“That Magic Duel, Chen Guixian was backed by the Array of Ten Thousand Woods, which is why I didn’t pursue and thus maintained a tie. Moreover, I have already gauged his limits from that encounter. His maximum capability was swinging that Fourth Order Sword thrice. Now although he has advanced to the Mid Foundation Establishment Stage, in these sixteen years, I have also broken through and attained the strongest realm just below Nascent Soul!”

As Xuan Shu spoke, his eyes shimmered like two golden stars, radiating dazzling light. Then an overwhelming aura erupted from him that startled all the Core Formation cultivators present in the hall.

“This is…”

Xuan Qi, being the oldest Core Formation cultivator of Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace, instantly sensed Xuan Shu’s current realm, widening his eyes in both shock and joy.

“Zhou Shengqing didn’t kill me, but instead allowed me to reach Perfection in Core Formation. I will repay this debt with Chen Guixian’s head and the downfall of Divine Wood Sect.”

The aura of Perfection that burst from Xuan Shu, along with his confident words, brought smiles to the faces of Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace’s Core Formation cultivators who had been under the shadow of Ku Zhu in the Kong Sang Valley for some time.

Even the two who usually clashed with Xuan Shu were genuinely hoping that this Taoist Child could resolve the grudge in his heart in the Eastern Wilderness.

“Once you’ve cleared the Eastern Wilderness, I will prepare the resources for your Nascent Soul Formation, hoping you won’t disappoint me again!”

Golden Wind Ancestor promised as he spoke.

Upon hearing this, Xuan Shu immediately turned around and respectfully saluted,

“Yes, Master!”
