One month later. A grand and majestic giant city stood between heaven and earth: Mo Zhan Immortal City!
Today was a day of great celebration for the entire Mo Zhan Immortal City, as the City Lord Mo Changkong had successfully entered the sprinting realm and ascended to the twelfth level of the great emperor realm, joining the ranks of the top great experts in the Primordial Chaos Nine Heavens Immortal Realm!
“I emerged from seclusion yesterday, and I wanted the entire city to celebrate today, yet my second brother, third brother, and young master are nowhere to be found!”
“What kind of steward are you? You don’t even know where they went?”
The steward, terrified, knelt on the ground, “City Lord, please calm your anger. I will immediately send someone to find the young master and the second and third masters.”
At that moment, the chief steward Mo Wuwen hurriedly arrived, looking pale as he gazed at Mo Changkong and said, “Cousin, something bad has happened! A major incident!”
“Wuwen, what is it?” Mo Changkong furrowed his white brows.
Mo Wuwen trembled as he spoke, “Cousin, I cannot explain everything in detail; I will let someone else tell you!”
After saying this, Mo Wuwen turned back and shouted towards the courtyard gate, “Come in!”
“Yes, sir!” A respectful voice responded, and an elderly man in his seventies entered the courtyard, facing Mo Changkong and bowing, “I, Liu Weng, greet the City Lord!”
“Get up and speak,” Mo Changkong waved his hand.
“I obey, City Lord.” Liu Weng stood up and, facing Mo Changkong, bowed again, “A year ago, outside the Soul-Eating Abyss, I witnessed with my own eyes that a young man named Tan Yun killed the second master...”
Before Liu Weng could finish his sentence, the joy of Mo Changkong’s ascension vanished completely. He was furious, his face turning red, “What did you say?”
“Thud!”
Liu Weng, scared, knelt on the ground, braving himself to say, “The second master was killed by Tan Yun.”
Mo Changkong’s anger surged, but what Liu Weng said next made him even more enraged!
Liu Weng, trembling, added, “City Lord, also, I could tell from Tan Yun’s tone that the third master and the young master… were also killed by Tan Yun.”
“Impossible… Impossible!” Mo Changkong roared hoarsely, “This is absolutely impossible!”
“City Lord, please calm down. Old Servant will go to the Lamp Soul Palace to check on the life lamps of the second master, third master, and the young master.” The steward replied and vanished like a shadow.
A moment later, the steward returned and cried out, “City Lord! The life lamps of the second master, third master, and the young master have truly extinguished... Wuwu…”
“No!”
Mo Changkong’s murky tears flowed down his face as he threw his head back and coughed up a mouthful of blood!
“Cousin, the dead cannot be resurrected; you must grieve moderately!” Mo Wuwen comforted him while wiping his tears.
“I’m furious!” Mo Changkong spat out another mouthful of blood, and in an instant, he seemed to age several decades.
He trembled all over, staring at Liu Weng, yelling, “My second brother and third brother both have the strength of the first stage of the great emperor realm. Who exactly is Tan Yun? What background does he have to dare kill my brothers!”
“To dare kill my only son!”
Hearing this, Liu Weng trembled and said, “Reporting to the City Lord, I do not know Tan Yun’s identity.”
“Also, City Lord, Tan Yun has a partner named Xianxian. A year ago, they also killed General Wan Baoshan and over ten thousand Immortal Soldiers from the Nine Heavens Immortal Manor!”
“I believe the Nine Heavens Immortal Emperor must already be aware…”
Just then, a guard rushed in, kneeling on one knee before Mo Changkong, and respectfully said, “City Lord, an hour ago, the chief of the Nine Heavens Immortal Manor personally came to the city’s outskirts, stating that the Nine Heavens Immortal Emperor has ordered that in half a month, the ten city lords must go to the Nine Heavens Immortal Manor.”
