Chapter 216 - 216: Remove His Plaque for Me
A short but earth-shattering battle broke out on the Snow Plateau.
Desolate Yuntian, Hong Yan, and the others on the plateau were the first to notice.
However, it was not easy to figure out the exact situation.
In order to avoid misleading their Sect Master, Desolate Yuntian and the others were extremely cautious as they investigated the matter.
As a result, Chen Luoyang, who was in Gan Province, only received the news two days later.
The information was still very rough.
However, Chen Luoyang could already see some valuable things from it.
Yan Mingkong’s whereabouts were unknown after the battle.
There were no signs of her continuing west into the Black Lotus Buddha Territory, nor did they find her leaving the Snow Plateau to return to the Central Plains.
It seemed like Yan Mingkong’s chances of winning this battle were slim.
Even if he really won, he would have to pay a huge price. He would have to find a way to hide and heal himself so that he would not be taken advantage of.
Relatively speaking, the possibility of a draw or a loss was higher.
This meant that the opponent’s strength was at least on par with Yan Mingkong’s.
Compared to Yan Mingkong, who was at the 14th level…
Chen Luoyang nodded to himself.
His previous guess was correct.
The Devil Buddha lineage that came to the Divine Lands this time was indeed far from what Sinful Monk could compare to.
Moreover, it was very likely that there was more than one expert.
Since Yan Zhao and Tan Yunsheng were able to spread the news safely, it meant that they might have encountered a Devil Buddha’s successor at the thirteenth realm.
As for Yan Mingkong, he had encountered someone at the fourteenth realm.
Moreover, this 14th level Devil Buddha’s successor was at least as powerful as Yan Mingkong.
From this point of view, the opponent could not be underestimated.
Yan Mingkong didn’t go to the Snow Plateau for nothing. He had successfully helped Patriarch Chen get some useful information.
As for the intelligence and news, Chen Chuhua had specially sent someone to send him a message.
Ying Qingqing had disappeared.
The hidden system that he had previously placed on the other party did not respond, making it difficult to determine his whereabouts.
The place where he disappeared was also on the Snow Plateau.
It was worth mentioning that although Ying Qingqing’s last confirmed location was far from the battlefield where Yan Mingkong was fighting, it could be considered as the periphery of the battlefield in the entire Snow Plateau.
However, he did not know if there was any connection between the two.
Chen Luoyang pondered in his heart as he said to the person in front of him, “”Go down. Tell Yun Tian and Hong Yan to continue paying attention to the other party’s movements. After I’m done with the matters on my side, I’ll head to the highlands.
Before that, they have to find out as much as possible about the Black Lotus
Buddha Realm. At the same time, they have to be careful not to fall into the other party’s hands.”
“Yes, Cult Master.” Luo Yaolian, who was dressed in black, replied respectfully before retreating.
Chen Luoyang watched as the other party left and nodded his head in satisfaction.
This woman was not a subordinate of the Azure Dragon Hall, but a subordinate of the Left Emissary, Xiao Yuntian. She was a very capable member of the intelligence network created by Xiao Yuntian.
After Luo Yaolian left, Chen Luoyang fell into deep thought again.
He had told Desolate Yuntian, Hong Yan, and the others to pay attention to their own safety when they investigated the Black Lotus Buddha Realm to avoid being captured by the other party to obtain important information.
It wasn’t that Head Cult Master Chen was doing something unnecessary and had nothing better to do, but that he had learned his lesson and had a clear objective.
In the past two days, something happened in the Northern Plains.
The subordinate of the Azure Dragon Hall who was participating in the siege of the remnants of the non-humankind, the sixth person of the Azure Dragon Seven Constellations, had mysteriously disappeared.
There was no one alive, no bodv dead.
Of course, Chen Luoyang obtained the answer after inquiring about this person’s information through the black pot.
Azure Dragon 6 was captured alive by Cheng Huyuan. After he was interrogated to obtain some information about the Ancient Gods Clan, he was killed by
Cheng Huyuan.
This confirmed Chen Luoyang’s guess about this person.
He should not be someone who originally belonged to the Divine Lands. He should be like the Nine-Armed Sky Demon Fei Chen or the Devil Buddha’s descendants in the west, who came from outside the Divine Lands.
When this person arrived here, he probably met the Right Sage King Zong Le by chance. In the end, Zong Le lost his life because of a disagreement.
Then, Cheng Huyuan learned about the recent situation in the Divine Lands from the lower class citizens or other foreign races.
Then, he aimed at the people of the Demon Cult, hoping to obtain further internal information.
The information about Azure Dragon Six in the black pot only stated that he had confessed part of the information.
Chen Luoyang didn’t know how much Cheng Huyuan knew about him.
However, the other party’s actions allowed Chen Luoyang to see through something.
This fellow was completely different from Saber Emperor Yuwen Feng.
Or rather, he was different from Black Emperor Xiuzhe, Sword Emperor Wang Jian, Empress Yan Mingkong, Yang Emperor Xie Chong, and even the former Demon Cult Master.
From a certain point of view, this person was somewhat similar to Emperor Xia, Li Yuanlong.
Let’s assume that he was the owner of the severed hand. After he came to the Divine Lands, he didn’t have the intention to seek Chen Luoyang’s location and directly seek revenge.
This person was hiding in the dark and was carefully observing the Divine Lands.
Chen Luoyang’s current prestige was like the sun at noon.
It wasn’t difficult to understand his battle achievements and general strength.
But this Cheng Huyuan clearly wanted to know more.
However, this action also exposed one thing.
At the very least, this person’s strength wouldn’t be much higher than his.
Otherwise, he would have just charged over.
The act of capturing Azure Dragon 6 alive to obtain more information meant that although the opponent did not have the confidence to defeat him, he at least had the confidence to fight.
Otherwise, forget about revenge, he could just retreat.
After hearing about Chen Luoyang’s battle achievements from the outside world, he estimated that there wasn’t much of a difference between them. They were on par. Therefore, in order to increase their chances of winning, they captured Azure Dragon Six alive and obtained more detailed information.
Chen Luoyang estimated in his heart.
Of course, there were other possibilities.
For example, the enemy was actually weaker than him, but they had strong backup. Their current actions were similar to Desolate Yuntian and the others, gathering information first.
Or perhaps, the enemy was actually stronger than him, but he was extremely conservative and cautious. He would only attack when there was a 100% chance of success. In order to increase the probability of success, he had been constantly collecting new clues.
But no matter which type it was, Chen Luoyang could smell something else from their style.
This Cheng Huyuan didn’t seem to be limited to defeating him openly.
After understanding the general situation in the Divine Lands, the other party seemed to be waiting patiently.
They were waiting for Chen Luoyang to conquer the snowy plateau and start a war with the Devil Buddha lineage’s successor.
At that time, it might be the time for the other party to make a move.
This was like a guy who was unscrupulous and liked to trick people to take advantage of them.
Chen Luoyang had this guess in his heart. When he looked at the footsteps of the Demon Cult in cleaning up the grassland’s foreign tribes, Chen Luoyang vaguely felt that this was the case.
This person was very patient and did not care much about manners.
At the very least, with the cultivation of a Martial Supreme, it was extremely rare for someone to capture a Martial Supreme and interrogate him.
Because she had lost her reputation.
Unless the other party deliberately bumped into the muzzle of the gun.
It was rare for a Martial Monarch Realm expert to take the initiative to make things difficult for a Martial Arts Grandmaster.
At the same time, this also reflected another matter. This time, Cheng Huyuan was different from the current successor of the Devil Buddha lineage. He was similar to Sinful Buddha, who came alone.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have done everything himself.
At least for now, he didn’t have many people to use. He had to rely on himself to do everything.
This made it very difficult for the Demon Cult to find traces of this person.
The grassland beyond the Great Wall was a sparsely populated place. It was too easy for a Martial Monarch Realm expert to hide here since he did not interact with others.
Everyone in the Divine Lands hated such a powerful individual who acted
alone.
Cheng Huyuan could kill and injure a large number of people on this side, but it would be very difficult for Chen Luoyang to capture the other party’s tracks.
Such existences in the Divine Lands were gradually eliminated by everyone.
However, this mysterious expert from beyond the heavens, Cheng Huyuan, was not worried about this at the moment.
Although he hadn’t shown such a tendency yet and had only captured Azure Dragon 6 for interrogation, Chen Luoyang had no choice but to consider this problem.
There was a possibility that the extermination of the foreign tribes would temporarily come to a halt. Everyone was retreating, and at the same time, they were careful not to become Cheng Huyuan’s prey.
Now, the Martial Kings of the Demonic Sect were especially vigilant.
If Cheng Huyuan wanted to get more information about the Demon Cult, he would have to keep an eye on the few people at the top of the Demon Cult.
For example, Chen Chuhua, Zhang Tianheng, Su Wei, and the others.
Furthermore, it was not just the Mobei area. The entire Divine Lands, regardless of north, south, north or south, were paying attention to this mysterious expert.
No one could guarantee that he would stay in the northern frontier.
This had already caused a considerable impact on the entire Demon Sect.
Chen Luoyang needed to resolve this problem as soon as possible. Otherwise, it might damage his prestige and affect the Ancient Gods Clan’s rule over the Divine Lands.
However, this was a person who wouldn’t release the eagle until he saw the rabbit.
It was indeed a little difficult to find him.
He couldn’t wait passively.
This person was very patient. If Chen Luoyang didn’t make a move, the other party would probably continue to squat.
He had to take the initiative.
The other party wanted to launch a sudden attack when Head Cult Master Chen was fighting against an opponent of the same level.
Since that was the case, he would give him a chance.
However, if the opponent was a descendant of the Devil Buddha lineage, many unexpected situations might occur.
Now, he had to try his best to avoid and reduce the occurrence of such accidents.
The reason why he took the initiative was to get rid of Cheng Huyuan first. It would be bad if he was attacked from both sides.
There was one person who was a good choice. It seemed to be the right person at the moment.
After Chen Luoyang thought about it, he tapped his finger lightly on the jade
pendant that he carried with him.
Old Shou soon appeared in front of him.
“Go to Bazhou.” “Remove the Sword Pavilion’s plaque for me,” Chen Luoyang instructed indifferently.
Lao Shou didn’t ask why, but respectfully replied, ‘”Yes, Cult Master. This old servant will obey Cult Master’s orders.”
Chen Luoyang continued, ” After going out to sea from Lu Prefecture’s Penglai, head southeast. Find an island that looks like a spoon handle and send the plaque over.. ‘
