Becoming an immortal against the will of heaven

"Huh? What do you mean?" Hearing the words of the Demon Sky Old Ancestor, Chen Tian frowned and looked at him, asking.

"In that case, the Sect Leader probably doesn't know about this matter yet. Actually, the matter is like this..."

Next, the Demon Sky Old Ancestor briefly described the strange things that had happened in the three sects while Chen Tian was in seclusion.

"What? Are you saying that Ning Tianxing, Mei Jiaoniang, and Pu Suanzi were all assassinated?"

In other words, not only were these three people killed, but the Heavenly Dao Spring they had obtained was also snatched away. And all the clues are unfavorable to the Cao family.

"No... It's absolutely impossible for it to be the Cao family. I understand Cao Fangcun's character. He wouldn't do such a stupid thing. Wouldn't that be like playing with fire!" After pondering for a while, Chen Tian shook his head, overturning the possibility of the Cao family being the culprit.

Chen Tian knew Cao Fangcun relatively thoroughly. If he really wanted to make a move, then he could have done it when everyone had just come out that day. He wouldn't have waited so long. This doesn't fit Cao Fangcun's character. He's not that stupid.

"Sect Leader is right. Although initially, the Ningyuan Sect and the Charming Bloom Palace thought that the Cao family was secretly playing tricks, they joined forces to attack the Cao family. But for some reason, as they fought, they suddenly stopped, and then they dispersed. This matter was treated as if it had never happened, which is really puzzling to this subordinate."

Indeed, before Chen Tian went into seclusion, he had specifically instructed the Demon Sky Old Ancestor to monitor the movements of the Ningyuan Sect, the Charming Bloom Palace, the Shendao Sect, and the Cao family at all times. It was because of this that he was able to detect this extremely strange conflict.

Although he didn't know what the precious treasure was, with the Demon Sky Old Ancestor's experience in cultivation, he could be sure that this item was extraordinary and extremely rare. Otherwise, the Ningyuan Sect and the Charming Bloom Palace wouldn't have been so angry.

Logically speaking, after losing such a precious treasure and losing two Sect Ancestors, the Ningyuan Sect and the Charming Bloom Palace should be extremely angry and should fight the Cao family to the death.

But who would have thought that when the three families were fighting fiercely, they would suddenly stop, and then everyone would retreat in frustration.

What exactly happened in the middle? This had been troubling the Demon Sky Old Ancestor. It was not until now that Chen Tian had come out of seclusion that the Demon Sky Old Ancestor had the opportunity to ask him.

After listening to the Demon Sky Old Ancestor's narration, Chen Tian's heart was also filled with doubts. He never expected that such a strange thing would happen not long after he and Cao Fangcun and the others parted ways.

However, one thing Chen Tian could be sure of was that the murderer who killed Ning Tianxing and Mei Jiaoniang must have been aiming for the Heavenly Dao Spring and provoked the conflict between the Ningyuan Sect, the Charming Bloom Palace, and the Cao family.

The only thing that Chen Tian couldn't understand was that he had also obtained the Heavenly Dao Spring, so why didn't the murderer come to find him?

"Could it be that this matter was done by Ji Ao and Duan Muya?"

After thinking for a long time, such an idea suddenly popped into Chen Tian's mind.

After all, the only people under the heavens who knew that they had obtained the Heavenly Dao Spring and had the strength to kill Ning Tianxing and Mei Jiaoniang, late-stage Sea Condensation Realm experts, were these two people.

So after some thought, Chen Tian set his sights on Ji Ao.

"No, that Ji Ao considers himself a god from the demon realm, and he is proud and arrogant. How could he do such despicable and lowly things?"

However, after another thought, Chen Tian overturned this possibility. He felt that if it was Ji Ao's character, if he really wanted to attack these people, then he would definitely not hide it, but would go to rob them openly. With Ji Ao's strength, although it was only a clone that had descended, he was unmatched by anyone in the entire cultivation world except for a very few Heavenly Foundation Realm old monsters.

Even if Ning Tianxing, Mei Jiaoniang, and Pu Suanzi joined forces, they would definitely not be Ji Ao's opponents, so why would Ji Ao go to such lengths to use such despicable means to attack them in secret?

Thinking of this, Chen Tian frowned and asked the Demon Sky Old Ancestor, "By the way, where was the evidence you just mentioned that proves the Cao family is the murderer found?"

"Oh, it was found in the Shendao Sect, next to Pu Suanzi." Hearing Chen Tian's question, the Demon Sky Old Ancestor did not dare to neglect it and reported truthfully, "It was because clues were found next to Pu Suanzi that everyone believed that the murderer must be from the Cao family. In anger, the two families joined forces to attack the Cao family. Speaking of which, the Sect Leader of the Shendao Sect, Kong Lingzi, is really a good person. Although Pu Suanzi is his disciple, when he heard that the two families were going to jointly attack the Cao family, he actively mediated and wanted to resolve this dispute. This tolerance and generosity is really admirable to this old man."

At this time, the Demon Sky Old Ancestor said another detail, that is, the Sect Leader of the Shendao Sect had come forward to mediate the conflict between the Ningyuan Sect, the Charming Bloom Palace, and the Cao family, but unfortunately, it failed. But even so, he, who was based on benevolence, did not send anyone to participate in this conflict.

Otherwise, with the addition of the Shendao Sect's power, the Cao family would have had no chance of survival and would have been crushed from the very beginning.

Therefore, when the Demon Sky Old Ancestor talked about Kong Lingzi, he seemed so emotional, directly saying that he was kind and amiable.

However, when Chen Tian heard this sentence, his mind seemed to be shocked by electricity, and he suddenly shuddered. Then all the clues were stacked up layer by layer, and the truth of the incident was about to come out!

"Hehe, so that's how it is. I really didn't expect that I still underestimated that Kong Lingzi!" At this time, Chen Tian suddenly sneered and muttered to himself.

"Hmm? Sect Leader, what are you talking about?" The Demon Sky Old Ancestor seemed to not have heard Chen Tian clearly and asked in confusion.

"It's nothing." After sneering, Chen Tian's expression returned to normal. He said in a cold voice, "In this way, pass on my order, from today onwards, sever all ties with the Shendao Sect. All invitations and notifications issued by the other party will not be accepted. Do you understand?"

"Ah? Sect Leader, why is this?" The Demon Sky Old Ancestor was startled by Chen Tian's sudden order and was dumbfounded.

"There are not so many whys, you just obey the order." Chen Tian's tone did not have a trace of room for discussion. Then he said again, "Alright, you can go down first and prepare. We will set off tomorrow morning."

"This... Alas, alright, then this subordinate will take his leave first."

Seeing Chen Tian's resolute expression, the Demon Sky Old Ancestor sighed and then turned and left.

At this point, only Chen Tian was left on this high platform.

Chen Tian held up his wine glass and looked up at the gradually setting moon in the sky, his eyes revealing a cold light as he said, "Kong Lingzi, if you dare to attack my Immortal Demon Sect, then your Shendao Sect will be the second Wuying Hall. I, Chen Tian, mean what I say!"

After saying that, a sharp killing intent burst out from Chen Tian's body, the strength of which caused the wine glass in Chen Tian's hand to shatter with a "crack", and the beautiful wine exuding wisps of spiritual energy immediately flowed down from between Chen Tian's fingers and dripped onto the square made of white jade.

The moonlight poured down, but this time, it made people feel endless gloom and coldness!
