The thirty-odd Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals hovered behind the Immortal Monarch. They looked down from above, their gazes becoming hostile. When they glanced past the people of the Jing family, their eyes were filled with killing intent.
The Jing family had an Immortal Monarch and could be regarded as a prosperous clan in Falling Cloud City, but a mere Jing family was nothing in the eyes of the Tiger Roar clan.
Right now, if the Jing family could not clear their name with regards to the deaths of the two Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortal elders of the Tiger Roar clan, then they would not be able to escape the fate of destruction.
This was a matter of the Tiger Roar clanâs dignity!
Many people from the Jing family had already paled in fright. They all felt like they were facing inexorable doom.
Everyone had already engraved the infamy of the Tiger Roar clan into their hearts. Who in Falling Cloud City didnât fear them?
Despite his calm appearance, the ancestor of the Jing family, Jing Tianhao, was also extremely nervous. After a series of deliberations, he ended up making up his mind and deciding on a gamble.
He immediately demonstrated respect, bowing towards Jian Chen before everyone. âSenior, how should we deal with this?â
Not only did his behaviour silently indicate to the experts of the Tiger Roar clan that Jian Chen was behind everything, but it also tied him and even the entire Jing family to Jian Chen. He made them seem subservient to him.
The people from the Jing family all looked at Jian Chen.
However, Jian Chen had intentionally concealed his presence, so he seemed no different from a mortal in the eyes of the people from the Tiger Roar clan. He seemed extremely ordinary.
âSir, who are you? Why are you working against our Tiger Roar clan?â the Immortal Monarch from the Tiger Roar clan said sternly.
âMaster, t-the Tiger Roar clan is extremely powerful. I heard that they have a supreme expert.â At this moment, Jing Mumu could no longer care about her sorrow. She gripped Jian Chenâs sleeve firmly and said fearfully.
Jian Chen smiled gently and said, âMy dear disciple, have you forgotten about what I just said? Donât worry, even if you make the biggest mess in the world in the Falling Cloud City, Iâll be around to help out.â
The Immortal Monarch from the Tiger Roar clanâs eyes shone. He stared straight at Jian Chen and said extremely sternly, âMaster? Youâre the master of the little sword immortal from the Jing family? Are you aware that our Tiger Roar clan is after this little sword immortal?â
As he said that, he had already silently crushed a jade talisman, contacting the people of the Tiger Roar clan. According to his gut feeling, Jian Chen was anything but simple, or the ancestor of the Jing family would not refer to him with so much respect.
âIâm obviously aware that your Tiger Roar clan has taken an interest in my discipleâs Sword Immortal constitution, which is why you want to turn her into a human cauldron.â Jian Chen looked at the Immortal Monarch from the Tiger Roar clan. His originally-indifferent gaze immediately sharpened. âI still need to settle the fact that your Tiger Roar clan was after my disciple.â
The great elder of the Tiger Roar clan sneered. âYou want to settle this with our Tiger Roar clan? Arenât you aware that our Tiger Roar clan is not so-â
âNoisy!â Jian Chen snorted coldly. He closed his hand and immediately seized the great elder from the Tiger Roar clan with the Laws of Space. In the next moment, the great elder of the Tiger Roar clan appeared before Jian Chen like he had teleported over.
Jian Chen raised his hand and slapped the great elder across the face with a smack. The sound echoed through the courtyard. Half of the great elderâs face had already become swollen.
A mighty Fourth Heavenly Layer Immortal Monarch was actually so powerless before Jian Chen. When everyone saw that, they all became dumbfounded.
The Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals hovering in the air were also stunned by this sight.
A mighty great elder, with such great status in the clan, had actually been slapped publicly. Just how humiliating was that?
âSenior, y-y-you better not take things too far,â the great elder of the Tiger Roar clan said in exasperation. He was so furious that his eyes were about to erupt with flames as he ground his teeth.
âTake things too far?â Jian Chen sneered. âI know your cultivation method from your presence alone. Itâs the kind where you harvest yin. Itâs a very vicious cultivation method. Who knows just how many innocent women youâve harmed to reach your cultivation. Why donât you tell that to the women you harmed?â
Shortly afterwards, Jian Chen looked at the Nine-heavenly Xuan Immortals from the Tiger Roar clan and said, âAnd you lot. Your presence also gives off a sense of femininity and wickedness. Itâs also a result of cultivation methods that harvest yin. Who knows how many women youâve used as human cauldrons.â
âLooks like the Tiger Roar clan is not some clan or sect of orthodox practices.â
Coldness surged through Jian Chenâs eyes. His killing intent had already been roused.
âSenior, over eighty percent of the people in the Tiger Roar clan practise cultivation methods of harvesting yin. Countless women have died at their hands over the years. Theyâre not just from Falling Cloud City but from other immortal regions as well. However, because the Tiger Roar clan is so powerful with an Immortal Emperor ancestor, no one has been able to do anything about them.â After witnessing Jian Chenâs strength, the ancestor of the Jing family became even more fearful. Even when he spoke, he faltered.
âIn particular, basically none of the women that the Tiger Roar clan becomes interested in can escape in Falling Cloud City. There are even many clans that choose to make this sacrifice for the sake of self-preservation, sending their daughters over proactively for a moment of peace.â
âOur Jing family married our little sword immortal to the Tiger Roar clan this time because the Tiger Roar clan took a liking towards her. We could not resist at all, or our days would be over,â Jing Tianhao said helplessly.
Jian Chenâs eyes deepened as he peered into the truth. He obviously did not believe Jing Tianhaoâs words completely, so he verified this through his own methods.
A while later, when Jian Chen stopped peering around, his eyes had already become filled with killing intent.
The Tiger Roar clan had an Immortal Emperor. Since they possessed the same realm of cultivation, he obviously could not peer into too many secrets, but he did know that the unnatural deaths of millions of women in Falling Cloud City was connected to the Tiger Roar clan.
Over the years, the women that the Tiger Roar clan had harmed had reached an astounding number.
âTiger Roar clan, if I let you remain, itâll truly be a betrayal of nature. Today, I will act on behalf of the heavens and enforce justice,â Jian Chen said emotionlessly, stressing each word. Shortly afterwards, with a flick of his finger, a strand of sword Qi pierced the great elder of the Tiger Roar clanâs forehead and obliterated his soul, killing him for good.
At this moment, several powerful presences rapidly swept over from afar. The reinforcements of the Tiger Roar clan had arrived. There were three Immortal Monarchs, one at the Fifth Heavenly Layer and two at the Sixth Heavenly Layer.
Immortal Monarchs were all great elders in the Tiger Roar clan!
From so far away, Jian Chen could tell by their presence that the three Immortal Monarchs all practised the same cultivation methods of harvesting yin, which was extremely horrific. Once harvested, the women would die from a loss of essential Qi.
