“Han Xiu, what is the meaning of this?”
As Han Xiu approached, the leader of the All-Heavens Sect spoke.
Though his face appeared calm, his eyes blazed with fury.
Faintly, everyone could sense the killing intent radiating from him.
Everyone knew that Han Xiu’s actions had crossed the All-Heavens Sect leader’s bottom line.
“What’s wrong, Liu Shuo? Are you scared?”
“It seems you know why I’m here today.”
“I’ve come to reveal the truth from years ago, to let everyone see what kind of person you, Liu Shuo, truly are.”
Han Xiu declared firmly.
Her words drew everyone’s gaze instinctively to Liu Shuo.
The truth from years ago?
What kind of person?
With just a few simple words, people began to piece things together.
What Han Xiu was about to reveal likely had to do with the Reincarnation Sect from years past.
“Insolence!!!”
Suddenly, a tremendous pressure surged towards Han Xiu like a tidal wave.
It was the pressure of a Fourth-Rank Supreme.
The All-Heavens Sect leader had made his move, and with it came killing intent.
Though Han Xiu was no weakling, being a Third-Rank Supreme, she was utterly powerless against the pressure of a Fourth-Rank Supreme.
Moreover, the All-Heavens Sect leader’s pressure was laced with killing intent.
This pressure was meant to claim her life.
Buzz—
But suddenly, the space before Han Xiu trembled and distorted, rippling like waves.
The All-Heavens Sect leader’s pressure entered that distorted space and was swallowed entirely.
Soon, the life-threatening pressure vanished completely before Han Xiu.
This scene left everyone puzzled.
How could Han Xiu possibly withstand such pressure?
“Liu Shuo, are you trying to silence me?”
Just as the crowd was bewildered, a voice suddenly came from within the war chariot.
As the voice rang out, the chariot’s door opened, and a figure stepped out, appearing in everyone’s sight.
It was a woman.
She wore a long red dress, exuding an extraordinary aura.
Like a fairy, like a saint, but her cold expression and haughty gaze made her seem more like an empress reigning over the heavens and earth.
“You!!!”
Most people looked at the woman with curiosity.
They didn’t know her, so they scrutinised her, trying to glean clues about her identity.
But compared to the others, Liu Shuo and Chu Feng’s expressions changed drastically.
Their faces were filled with shock.
However, Liu Shuo’s shock was tinged with fear.
Chu Feng’s shock, on the other hand, was filled with joy.
Because Chu Feng recognised the woman.
Zhao Hong.
Back in the Hundred Refinements Mortal Realm, Chu Feng had met Zhao Hong.
By a twist of fate, Zhao Hong had even become lovers with Wang Qiang.
Back then, Chu Feng, Zhao Hong, and Wang Qiang had roamed the Hundred Refinements Mortal Realm together, forging a deep bond of friendship.
Later, they ventured to the Great Thousand Upper Realm together.
But due to an incident along the way, the three were separated.
Chu Feng later found Wang Qiang within the Void God Tree, but he had never found any trace of Zhao Hong.
He never expected to see Zhao Hong here today.
“Liu Shuo?”
“It’s coming back to me.”
“So he’s the one who caused Zhao Hong’s death.”
At this moment, Chu Feng looked at the All-Heavens Sect leader again, his eyes filled with rage.
This rage was entirely different from before.
Before Zhao Hong appeared, Chu Feng had already been hostile towards the All-Heavens Sect leader.
But back then, it was because the All-Heavens Sect had aided the Linghu Heavenly Clan against his Chu Heavenly Clan, which was why Chu Feng opposed them.
Now, it was different. Chu Feng’s hatred for Liu Shuo far surpassed what it had been, a deep-seated resentment and enmity from the core of his being.
Now, Chu Feng wanted nothing more than to tear Liu Shuo to pieces.
The reason for this was simply Zhao Hong’s appearance.
Her presence had awakened some memories in Chu Feng.
He suddenly recalled Zhao Hong’s backstory.
Back in the Hundred Refinements Mortal Realm, Zhao Hong wasn’t the Zhao Hong of today. She was a demoness filled with hatred towards men, killing indiscriminately.
From the Cloth-Sack Monk, Chu Feng had learned about Zhao Hong’s origins.
Originally, Zhao Hong was the daughter of the Reincarnation Sect’s leader, a genius of the Reincarnation Upper Realm.
At just twenty years old, she had become the strongest in the Reincarnation Upper Realm.
What kind of talent was that?
How dazzling she must have been back then.
Chu Feng could easily imagine it.
But later, Zhao Hong fell in love with a man—Liu Shuo.
They even married.
But in truth, Liu Shuo harboured ulterior motives. He didn’t love Zhao Hong. His purpose in marrying her was to obtain the Reincarnation Sect’s treasured artifact, the Reincarnation Pearl.
On their wedding day, Liu Shuo acted.
He poisoned Zhao Hong and everyone in the Reincarnation Sect.
He demanded the location of the Reincarnation Pearl from Zhao Hong, and when she refused to reveal it, Liu Shuo killed everyone in the Reincarnation Sect.
Later, Zhao Hong fought Liu Shuo, resulting in both being gravely injured.
Heartbroken and in despair, Zhao Hong took the Reincarnation Pearl and left the Reincarnation Upper Realm, hiding in the Hundred Refinements Mortal Realm.
But due to her severe injuries, Zhao Hong died.
Miraculously, the Reincarnation Pearl allowed her to reincarnate and be reborn.
However, the reborn Zhao Hong not only lost her previous life’s cultivation but also her memories, left only with a deep hatred for men.
This was why she became the infamous demoness of the Hundred Refinements Mortal Realm.
Back when Chu Feng learned this from the Cloth-Sack Monk, he and Zhao Hong weren’t yet close.
But he had felt deep disgust for Liu Shuo’s actions.
Though he later became friends with Zhao Hong, he had some doubts about her past.
Chu Feng wasn’t sure how the Cloth-Sack Monk knew so much about Zhao Hong’s history.
After all, her past had happened years ago.
If even Zhao Hong herself didn’t remember, how could the Cloth-Sack Monk know so clearly?
So, Chu Feng had a slight doubt about the truth of the monk’s words. He didn’t suspect the monk was lying, but rather that the monk’s information might have come from others, possibly inaccurate hearsay.
Later, as Chu Feng became friends with Zhao Hong and found she truly didn’t remember her past, he thought it might be a good thing for her to be unaware.
As time passed and with all the events Chu Feng encountered, he gradually forgot about this matter.
But today, everything came rushing back.
So, this Reincarnation Upper Realm was the one Zhao Hong had come from.
And the leader of the All-Heavens Sect was that ruthless betrayer, Liu Shuo.
And judging by the current situation, what Chu Feng had learned from the Cloth-Sack Monk seemed to have truly happened.
Today, Zhao Hong had come here clearly for revenge.
