First Immortal of Destiny

Chapter 254: Dark Night, Strong Wind

The All-Seeing Eye

Under the cover of night and clouds, Shen Mo could see everything happening inside and outside the city of Sishui.

He saw eighteen figures sneaking out of the city.

Shen Mo couldn't help but speak, "Chen Shijie, the Liu and Wu families have left the city and are heading this way."

"Yes."

Chen Mengze's expression seemed much calmer than before.

As she watched her blood feud about to be avenged, she became even more calm.

After coming back to her senses, she couldn't help but feel regret for her impulsive actions earlier.

It wasn't that she was afraid of death, but if she followed her previous plan, she would only be able to kill some irrelevant members of the Liu and Wu families.

It wouldn't truly destroy the two major families and avenge her mother, An Shi.

"If I am unable to handle it later... you will take action for me and kill Liu Dingjiang, Liu Yu, and Wu Dayong!" Chen Mengze suddenly said coldly.

Shen Mo was somewhat surprised in his heart, but after thinking about it, he nodded in agreement.

"Don't worry, there aren't as many people here as in the city of Sishui."

"With my various methods, they won't be able to escape."

"If their strength exceeds yours by a lot, I will injure them first, and then you can finish them off."

Shen Mo didn't know to what extent he needed to go to resolve the obsession in her heart.

Since that was the case, he might as well go all the way.

To prevent this obsession from causing trouble in the future and continuing to affect Chen Mengze's cultivation.

Chen Mengze looked at Shen Mo.

A complex look flashed in her eyes and disappeared.

Since she came to Tianshan City to exterminate demons, her heart had been troubled by various emotions.

There was a strong desire for revenge, panic over her stagnant cultivation, confusion about the future...

And there was also guilt towards Shen Mo.

And a trace of indescribable regret.

In the past, she was clearly as stubborn as iron and rejected Shen Mo in order to avenge her blood feud.

But witnessing his amazing performance since he entered the inner sect, various emotions sprouted in Chen Mengze's heart.

His cultivation realm rapidly improved, his strength soared...

He showed his prowess during the Ghost Nation ruins expedition, gained great fame during the Tianshan ceremony, and now he was wholeheartedly helping her with her revenge... Chen Mengze saw all of this.

But unfortunately, the mischievous person she used to look down upon had become someone close to her as a fellow outstanding disciple.

She didn't know when... Chen Mengze's unoccupied face had already approached Shen Mo.

Her red lips slightly parted, emitting a fragrant scent.

It seemed that she was about to kiss Shen Mo's corner of the mouth.

"Dongfang Qinglong Seven Constellations, Great Handprint. Heart!" Shen Mo suddenly spoke with a low voice.

His hands flew and formed the handprint of the heart.

A strange fox-shaped phantom appeared between his hands.

In an instant, it entered Chen Mengze's body, causing her to tremble, and her eyes regained clarity.

At the same time, a faint and imperceptible black smoke overflowed from her brow.

"What are you thinking? You've developed a heart demon and you don't even know it."

Shen Mo said as he took out a Tai Xu Pill from his Qiankun bag and stuffed it into Chen Mengze's mouth.

"Gulu!"

Blushing, Chen Mengze swallowed the pill.

Then, she activated her cultivation technique to digest the medicinal properties and calm her restless Dao heart.

After a moment, Chen Mengze was about to explain something, but she saw Shen Mo's expression change.

"They're here!"

"Liu Dingjiang, Liu Yu, Wu Dayong, and others are all here. There are a total of eighteen Qi Gathering stage cultivators."

"Among them, Liu Yu is at the peak of Qi Gathering stage, while the two clan leaders are in the later stage of Qi Gathering. There are four people in the middle stage, and the rest are all in the early stage of Qi Gathering!"

Chen Mengze's eyebrows furrowed, and her silver teeth gnashed loudly.

"These people are the culprits who wiped out my Chen family and killed my mother."

She was right in saying this.

Over twenty years ago.

Even though Liu Yu was only in her teens, she participated in the massacre of the Chen family with her Body Tempering cultivation.

Among these eighteen people, except for a few who were relatively young and did not shed the blood of the Chen family, the others have killed members of the Chen family to varying degrees.

Even many of them were originally in the Body Tempering stage and have cultivated to the Qi Gathering stage over the years, relying on the resources of the Chen family stained with blood.

As for the two other cultivators burdened with blood debts, either they died of old age, died on the path of cultivation, or they are still in the Body Tempering stage and did not appear in Sishui City, Dasheng Mountain, and Zizhu Valley this time.

Liu Dingjiang, his son, Wu Dayong, and the others, in order to avoid alarming Shen Mo and the other two...

Under the cover of the night, relying on lightness techniques and talismans for speed, they traveled twenty miles.

They only took out their magical tools and formed a circle of light after reaching Tianquan Mountain, surrounding the temporary cave.

No more concealment!

"A wicked person surnamed Zhang, come out!"

A Liu family cultivator shouted angrily.

Liu Dingjiang, Liu Yu, and Wu Dayong, relying on their identities, would not take the initiative to challenge.

Even earlier, the two clan leaders had already lost face in their own mansions.

"Heh, in the middle of the night, where did these barking dogs come from?"

Shen Mo, who transformed into a burly man named "Zhang Tieshan," walked out of the cave with Chen Mengze.

He casually swept his gaze over the Liu and Wu cultivators, his face full of disdain. "What? The old dog got beaten, so you brought a little dog for revenge?"

Upon hearing this, Liu Dingjiang and Wu Dayong's faces darkened.

Wu Dayong was relatively better off. He quickly admitted defeat in the Wu family mansion and was not beaten by this wicked person.

But Liu Dingjiang was not so lucky. He was beaten quite badly.

It perfectly matched the phrase "the old dog got beaten."

Unable to bear it any longer, Liu Dingjiang shouted angrily, "You despicable wicked person who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth! Even at the brink of death, you dare to use your tongue."

"Oh?"

Shen Mo's expression turned serious. "My wife and I just want forty percent of your industries! Is that why you want to fight us to the death?"

A fierce look appeared in Liu Yu's eyes.

"At this point, do you still think you have a way out?"

"Do you even know whose territory Sishui City is? You injured members of our two families and still want to seize our interests..."

"If we let you two leave alive, how can the other families and independent cultivators in the city ever respect our Liu and Wu families?"

"Tell me, where do you want to be buried?"

As Liu Yu's words fell, a purple-golden halberd appeared in his hand.

Liu Dingjiang, Wu Dayong, and the other family cultivators also took out their magical tools and talismans, slowly pressuring forward.

The all-seeing eye hanging high in the sky was spinning.

Dasheng Mountain and Zizhu Valley were still concealed by the misty fog, without any unusual movements.

Even if there were cultivators from small families or independent cultivators in Sishui City who sensed something was amiss, they didn't dare to come and watch the excitement.

Within a radius of ten miles around Qingquan Mountain, it was quiet.

Not to mention cultivators... even birds and beasts seemed to have smelled the danger and had already hidden deep in the mountains.

"It's a good day for killing when the moon is dark and the wind is high!" Shen Mo whispered.

Then, he released his grip on Chen Mengze's hand.

A gentle breeze blew, lifting the thin veil on Chen Mengze's hat, revealing a face full of murderous intent.
