Inside the city where the Murong clan was located.
At that moment, numerous people walked onto the streets. Looking at the large shadow that covered up the skies above them, all of them were stunned.
âWhat⦠What is that?â
âShip⦠Itâs a shipâ¦Itâs a very huge ship!â
âWhat do you mean, âshipâ? That thing can soar through the skies, itâs a type of Fairy boat to be exact. But by the heavens, this is my first time seeing one thatâs so big.â
âThis is a fairy boat? Iâd even believe it if you told me itâs a floating fairy palace.â
âItâs⦠Itâs hugeâ¦â
The Illusive Mirage arrived in the skies above the city.
Standing on deck, Chu Kuangren looked below and said, âThis must be the city where the Murong clan is located. Weâve finally arrived.â
Based on a normal Fairy boatâs speed, it would take around two or three days to get to the city. However, things were different with the Illusive Mirage.
Despite the Illusive Mirageâs huge size, it also possessed top-notched speed.
It managed to reach the Murong clanâs location within one day and one night.
âNext up, letâs find where the Murong clan is located.â
Chu Kuangren mumbled as he spread his spiritual thoughts in all directions.
He finally found the Murong clanâs location within a short while. However, his expression turned incomparably grim the moment he witnessed what was happening there at that exact moment.
âWell done! Well done, Murong clan!â
âIn light of this matter today, I will never let you off the hook forever!â
â¦
Meanwhile, within the Murong clanâs location.
The sudden arrival of the Illusive Mirage cast a large shadow upon the area beneath it.
It was as if the surrounding skies had turned dark.
Everyone was dumbfounded when they saw the gigantic Fairy boat in the sky. After all, that was their first time seeing a Fairy boat as large as that.
âMy God, whoâs Fairy boat is this!â
âYouâre telling me thatâs a Fairy boat?â
âWho the hell is on it? In the whole Firmament Star, Iâve never heard of any orthodoxies owning a Fairy boat like this, and the same goes to the sage orthodoxies as well.â
âIt canât possibly be a newly constructed battleship from some dynasty, right?â
âThere seems to be no sign or insignia on it either.â
Everyone began to engage in a heated discussion. Meanwhile, the Murong clanâs head and his elders just gazed at the Illusive Mirage with utmost interest instead.
âWhat a mysterious Daoist pattern it has, and that energy as well. This Fairy boat must possess something more besides its huge size.â
âIf my Murong clan were to own such a Fairy boat, our foundation and background standings would no doubt increase. Whoâs Fairy boat is that?â
Among the onlooking crowd, Murong Fengâs anxiety intensified upon seeing the Illusive Mirage because he felt a familiar energy emanating from it.
Whooshâ¦
Soon after, two figures descended from the Illusive Mirage.
Everyone was astonished when they saw who those two were.
âIt truly is him!â
Murong Feng said in shock when he saw it was Chu Kuangren.
âI donât know where you are from, but if you can pardon me askingâ¦â One of the elders approached Chu Kuangren, interested to find out who he was.
âScram!â
Chu Kuangren simply lifted his arm and unleashed a palm attack.
A horrifying Human Mountain Daoist Rhyme erupted from his palm and before the elder could react, he was sent flying and spewing blood. Eventually, the elder crashed onto a nearby wall.
âWhat!â
âHow dare he come to my Murong clanâs place and cause trouble!â
The expressions of the Murong clanâs head and others changed drastically.
Just as they were about to take action, Murong Feng hurriedly went before them and blocked their path, saying, âPlease stop, this person is the Black Heaven Sect Leader!â
Everyone was shocked when they heard his words.
Meanwhile, the ones who went to the Hidden Sword Canyon, which included Murong Yu, Murong Hai, and the others, looked at Chu Kuangren with fear building up in their eyes.
âChu Kuangren. I canât believe he really came.â
âHmph, so what if heâs here? Thereâs only him and that woman beside him. What kind of trouble can those two possibly make?â
âYouâre right, this is our Murong clanâs territory after all.â
The crowd stared intently at Chu Kuangren, ready to fight at any moment.
However, all he did was slowly walk toward Murong Xuan instead. The moment he felt the Domain energy that was suppressing his junior brother, Chu Kuangren lifted his arm and released a white lotus into the air, which instantly nullified the Domain energy that was weighing upon Murong Xuan.
âHis strengthâ¦â
Murong Yuâs expression changed.
Only then did he realize that Chu Kuangren was even stronger than before!
Moreover, it was not a small increment in strength.
âHow is this possible!â
âHow many days have passed since our journey to the Sword Gauntlet?â
After the Domain energy was completely dispersed, Murong Xuan hurriedly ran before the coffin with tears flowing down his face. He then carefully held up the skeletal remains that had tumbled out earlier.
Chu Kuangen was silent as he followed after him.
He could feel a tremendous feeling of grief and anger from Murong Xuanâs body.
âIâm sorry, mother. Iâm sorry for not being filial enough⦠Iâm sorry for failing to protect youâ¦â
Murong Xuanâs voice trembled as he spoke.
Standing behind him, even Chu Kuangren trembled slightly when he heard what Murong Xuan said. He then gazed at the skeletal remains on the ground with utter disbelief. âThis is Murong Xuanâs mother!â
âIt seems that Murong Xuanâs mother has passed away for a long time now. I canât believe the Murong clan would dare treat a deceased person like this before Murong Xuanâ¦â
An unprecedented surge of anger instantly welled up in Chu Kuangrenâs chest the moment he thought of that. His ever-chilling gaze swept across everyone present.
Placing his hand on Murong Xuanâs shoulder, Chu Kuangren calmly assured him. âItâs alright now, youâre not alone anymore, because Iâm here!â
He then glanced at the clan tomb mausoleum and walked towards it.
Everyone was startled and surprised by his actions.
âWhatâs he trying to do?â
The Murong clanâs head then went forward to greet him. âGreetings, Black Heaven Sect Leader. Iâm afraid that your sudden arrival has interfered with my Murong clanâs internal affairs, so I donât think itâs inappropriate for you to be here now.â
Without sparing him a look, Chu Kuangren simply raised his arm, and out came another palm attack.
The power of the Human Mountain Stamp was so terrifyingly strong that even the Murong clanâs head could not defend himself against it. Instead, he was instantly blown away like a cannonball.
âThis impudent man!â
âMerely attacking without even saying a word, heâs too audacious and insolent!â
âStop him now!â
The elders of the Murong clan immediately attacked Chu Kuangren at once. Surges of sword qi then erupted and formed into a web of swords in the void
A cold glint flashed across Chu Kuangrenâs eyes.
With that, the Descendant Self Sword at his waist unsheathed itself and instantly unleashed an immeasurable purple sword ray which was engulfed with his boiling rage!
The unstoppable sword ray tore through the net of swords effortlessly, sending shockwaves that sent the attacking elders flying.
The target of the sword qi was not them.
Instead, it was the Murong clanâs⦠mausoleum!
âThis is bad!â
âQuickly, someone stop him!â
The Murong clanâs head and elders were extremely angered.
Seeing that situation unfold, Murong Feng immediately shot out an extremely sharp sword qi with his Contending Sun Sword, intending to stop Chu Kuangrenâs attack.
However, his attempt was futile!
In the past, he could not even block a single attack from Chu Kuangren.
Moreover, Chu Kuangren was now much stronger than he used to be, so there was no chance for him to stop his attack!
The sword ray shattered, and like the elders earlier, Murong Feng was blown away by the residual shockwave caused by the colliding impact. He could only watch as the purple sword ray landed on his clanâs mausoleum without mercy.
With a loud bang, a large number of stones were destroyed, and the clan mausoleum instantly collapsed with just that sword ray. Multiple coffins were laid bare, or broken, or fallen onto the groundâ¦
At that moment, every disciple of the Murong clan felt extremely humiliated as they stared daggers at Chu Kuangren like they were going to swallow him with their gazes.
âHe really did desecrate the Murong clanâs mausoleum!â
âThe people buried there were all ancestors of the Murong clan!â
âMurong Xuan is my Black Heaven Sectâs Daoist, and that makes his mother a part of my Black Heaven Sect as well. Now that all of you have disturbed his motherâs slumbering peace, I shall let all the ancestors of the Murong clan⦠Die a graveless death!â
The tone of Chu Kuangrenâs voice was as cold as a violent blizzard.
Everyone trembled the moment they heard that.
âBlack Heaven Sect⦠You guys⦠Do you want to go to war?â
Trembling from all the rage he felt, the Murong clanâs head yelled.
âBring it on then! Letâs go to war right now!â
Chu Kuangrenâs roar was as loud as thunder.
An immeasurably terrifying Sword-based Daoist Rhyme that carried the rage he felt erupted from his body and swept through all directions like a tide!
The whole Murong clan shook!
