When Tuoba Chengan and the elders of the All Heavens Sect were so furious they could almost spit blood, Chu Feng had naturally already left the Red Robe Holy Land, accompanied by another group.
That group was the Secret Cave Group Saints.
“Brother Shura, did you really use dog dung in that formation?”
“Haha, if that’s true, the All Heavens Sect folks must be fuming!”
“Those guys act all high and mighty, especially in the All Heavens Star Domain, treating themselves like untouchable gods.”
“Yeah, even if the dog dung didn’t hit them, the smell alone would disgust them.”
Learning that Chu Feng had set up a formation to trick the All Heavens Sect elders, the Secret Cave Group Saints were gleefully gloating.
“But Brother Shura, doing this means you’re completely at odds with the All Heavens Sect,” said Little Eleven of the Secret Cave Group Saints.
Though the lowest-ranked among them, he was far older than Chu Feng, so even he called Chu Feng “brother.”
Of course, their drastic change in attitude toward Chu Feng stemmed from their current alliance.
“From the start, we were already irreconcilable,” Chu Feng replied.
He didn’t elaborate, but only he knew that even before arriving in the All Heavens Star Domain, the All Heavens Sect was already his enemy.
They were unjust first, so they couldn’t blame Chu Feng for being ruthless.
“Brother Shura, you didn’t have to reveal your cards,” Little Eleven said.
“As long as you didn’t disclose your origins, they’d always assume you had someone backing you.”
“They’d have some reservations about you.”
“Now that you’ve laid it all bare, they can deal with you without hesitation.”
Little Eleven continued.
“It’s no use. Since the All Heavens Sect dared send assassins after our Brother Shura, it proves they can’t tolerate him running wild in their domain,” said the leader of the Secret Cave Group Saints.
“Though their first assassination failed, it let them know there’s no great master protecting Brother Shura.”
“Naturally, there’ll be a second, even a third attempt, until they kill him…”
The leader went on.
“If that’s the case, openly confronting them doesn’t matter,” the other Secret Cave Group Saints chimed in.
“Clashing head-on with the All Heavens Sect is fine,” said the leader.
“But Brother Shura, you were invited as a guest of the Red Robe Holy Land.”
“And from what I see, you’re somewhat close with that girl from the Red Robe Holy Land, or you wouldn’t have helped them against us.”
“By treating the All Heavens Sect this way, aren’t you afraid they’ll cause trouble for the Red Robe Holy Land?” the leader asked.
“They won’t,” Chu Feng said.
His confidence came from knowing about Elder Song Yichen.
From Yin Zhuanghong, Chu Feng learned that the one impersonating Elder Song Yichen was the All Heavens Sect’s Supreme Elder, Cheng Hui.
Yet, all of Cheng Hui’s clothes, tokens, and even every item in his Qiankun bag belonged to Elder Song Yichen.
For Cheng Hui to have so many of Elder Song Yichen’s possessions likely meant she had met with misfortune.
In fact, when Elder Song Yichen first disappeared, the Red Robe Holy Land suspected her disappearance was linked to the All Heavens Sect.
Before vanishing, Elder Song Yichen had undertaken a dangerous task tied to the interests of both the All Heavens Sect and the Red Robe Holy Land.
Through this, the Red Robe Holy Land realized the All Heavens Sect might act against them.
So, even if Chu Feng didn’t oppose the All Heavens Sect, they wouldn’t spare the Red Robe Holy Land.
They were likely still weighing their options, which is why they hadn’t directly targeted the Red Robe Holy Land yet.
But a confrontation between the Red Robe Holy Land and the All Heavens Sect was inevitable.
This was why Chu Feng openly broke with the All Heavens Sect.
Since they wouldn’t let him go, he might as well rile them up and add to their frustration.
After leaving the Red Robe Holy Land, Chu Feng and the Secret Cave Group Saints headed to a place.
That place was the Demon-Slaying Emperor’s Tomb.
The tomb sat on a plain, desolate and barren.
Yellow dust swirled, trees were sparse, and no signs of life were visible.
Though not a desert, it was close enough.
A true wasteland.
Yet, deep within the plain lay a lush, green mountain range.
In front of the range stood an isolated peak.
The peak, unconnected to the range, was exceptionally tall.
It towered far above the highest point of the mountain range.
Though vast, the range lay below the clouds.
But the solitary peak pierced the clouds, as if reaching for the heavens.
The range was dense with greenery, filled with birdsong, fragrant flowers, flowing streams, and hidden wild and ferocious beasts.
Beyond the birds’ melodious calls, occasional earth-shaking roars echoed.
Despite the plain’s desolation, the mountain range teemed with life.
This stark contrast made the range seem out of place.
As Chu Feng and the others approached from the air, everything was clear.
Looking down, they saw the vast, sprawling mountain range.
Faintly, it resembled a person.
A person lying flat on the expansive plain.
With close inspection, the trees seemed to shift, faintly outlining a human form.
The towering, isolated peak further clarified the location.
For carved upon it were five large characters: Demon-Slaying Emperor’s Tomb.
The peak was the tombstone.
The sprawling range behind it was the resting place of the Demon-Slaying Emperor.
This was the Demon-Slaying Emperor’s Tomb!!!
“Brother Shura, see anything?” the Secret Cave Group Saints asked, noticing Chu Feng standing still in the void.
Though his gaze held no special quality, it kept scanning the range.
They guessed he was using unique observation methods, so they approached, inquiring.
“This is truly a remarkable place,” Chu Feng said.
“The range is covered in flowers, grass, and trees.”
“But with careful observation, it takes a human form.”
“The Demon-Slaying Emperor’s power permeates every part of this range.”
“It’s filled with mysteries, no wonder the All Heavens Sect hasn’t entered this tomb after all these years.”
After observing, Chu Feng spoke with admiration.
Yet, he also noted the tomb’s complexity.
