Chapter 261: Chapter 239: Xiao Mo Indeed Deserves to Die

“What do you mean, Sect Leader?”

Xiao Mo asked, confused.

“It’s a long story.”

Luo Jie took a sip of tea and sighed.

“Three thousand years ago, there was a disturbance in the White Bone Forbidden Land, one of the four great forbidden lands of the Western Regions. The Sect Leaders of the various major Sects in the Western Regions led their Elder Peak Masters to the White Bone Forbidden Land in search of opportunities.

Your grandmaster and my master went as well.

Over a hundred Sects entered the White Bone Secret Realm at the time, with a total of more than four thousand people, including Sect Leaders, Elders, and Monks.

But in the end, only a little over a thousand people came out.

It was a devastating blow to all the major Sects in the Western Regions.

The Nascent Soul Realm and Jade Realm Cultivators all lost their memories, with no idea what they had encountered inside.

The Cultivators at the Immortal Realm and Ascension Realm remembered everything, but not a single one of them would speak.

As if by unspoken agreement, they all kept their mouths shut, unwilling to utter a single word to the outside world.

I asked my master about it, too, but he would only sigh and shake his head, refusing to tell me anything.

It was on that expedition to the White Bone Secret Realm that your grandmaster disappeared. To this day, we don’t know if he is alive or dead.”

Luo Jie stroked his beard, looking up at the sky with a nostalgic glint in his eyes. “After that, your master went to search for any trace of your grandmaster.

At the time, your master was only two hundred years old, but she was already a late-stage Jade Realm Cultivator. She was fierce in both love and hate, and captivated countless men.

And I, in my younger days, was one of them.

It’s a funny story, how we met. Our friendship was forged in battle. I wasn’t interested in women back then—after all, none of them could ever beat me.

Then I heard stories about your master—a blade-wielding woman in a red dress who was said to be nearly invincible against anyone in her realm.

I was at Jade Realm Perfection myself back then, so I thought, ’Where did this arrogant woman come from, daring to call herself invincible in her realm?’

So I sought out your master for a duel.

We fought for three days and three nights, and in the end, she cut me down.

I still remember she was wearing a red dress, her long hair flowing down, tied back with a single red ribbon that looked almost like a sash.”

“Ahem…” As the Sect Leader of the Black Dragon Sect was reminiscing, Xiao Mo cleared his throat a few times, interrupting him. “Senior, I’d appreciate it if you’d get to the point.”

“Ha ha, my apologies, my apologies.”

Luo Jie’s expression grew serious again as he continued.

“I followed your master for quite a while, trying to win her favor, but she never gave me the time of day.

Once, I entered some ancient ruins with your master and a few other Cultivators.

Inside the ruins, your master was grievously injured, but she found this.”

As he finished speaking, Luo Jie produced a scroll from his sleeve. “Your master gave this scroll to me. It’s the key to a Secret Realm.

In those ruins, I learned that the place this scroll leads to is the slumbering place of the Ancient Fierce Beast Chaos.

Your master didn’t trust the Wandao Sect, and besides, she wasn’t interested in Chaos. You Cultivators of the Blood Sin Peak lineage only trust the blades in your hands.

So, she gave it to me in exchange for a piece of Chaos Divine Iron I had obtained in that Secret Realm.

I agreed to the trade with your master.

Furthermore, I had to agree that if a Cultivator from Blood Sin Peak wanted to go to the Chaos Secret Realm in the future, I must allow it.”

Hearing Luo Jie’s words, Xiao Mo frowned slightly. “Why didn’t Master trust the Wandao Sect?”

“It’s mainly because of the current Sect Leader,” Luo Jie said, shaking his head. “Blood Demon suspects your current Wandao Sect Leader is the reason something happened to her master.”

“…” Xiao Mo’s brow tightened. He squeezed the cup in his hand, lost in thought.

“I had originally planned to just lock this scroll away in the treasury, with no intention of seeking any opportunities in the Secret Realm. After all, I’ve used my Spiritual Power to enter the Chaos Secret Realm through the scroll a few times, and each time, I instantly lost all control of my Spiritual Power.

That alone is enough to prove how dangerous it is inside.

But who would have guessed that the scroll would recently begin to show signs of strange activity? It’s about to open on its own.”

Luo Jie placed the scroll that led to the Chaos Secret Realm on the table.

“If nothing unexpected happens, this scroll will open on its own in two months. But somehow, the Emperor Beast Sect’s Cultivators found out about it.”

“A traitor in the Black Dragon Sect?” Xiao Mo asked, puzzled.

“It must be,” Luo Jie said with a small smile. “But that’s to be expected. What Sect is truly a monolith? I have a pretty good idea who the Elder is. I’ll deal with him in a couple of days.”

“Then, Senior, what you’re proposing is…” Xiao Mo pressed.

’Luo Jie definitely isn’t telling me all this just for a casual chat,’ Xiao Mo thought.

“The Emperor Beast Sect won’t give up this chance to seize Chaos.”

Luo Jie poured Xiao Mo another cup of tea.

“Do you think I don’t understand the Emperor Beast Sect? So what if one of my Black Dragon Sect disciples defeated Chang Fen and Chen Yunxi?

It’s useless. They’ll just go back on their word.

But they made that boast, and I had to accept the challenge. Otherwise, the simmering frustration among the disciples would boil over, not only affecting the Sect’s morale but also shaking the Dao Hearts of some of the younger Cultivators.

As for our two Sects going to war, while I am not afraid, the Black Dragon Sect would inevitably suffer catastrophic losses, perhaps even to the point of annihilation.

If the Black Dragon Sect were destroyed under my watch, I would be too ashamed to face the Sect Leaders of generations past!”

Luo Jie gathered his sleeves, his gaze cold as he stared at the horizon. “So, the Emperor Beast Sect wants Chaos? Fine! In that case, I’ll give it to them. The question is, are they capable of taking it!”

…

「Ten miles outside the Black Dragon Sect.」

Hu Gu led Chen Yunxi back into the Emperor Beast Sect’s main camp.

Just as Hu Gu was trying to figure out how to explain the situation to his Sect Leader,

A man appeared before him.

“This subordinate greets you, Lord Sect Leader!”

“Disciple greets you, Master!”

Seeing the man, Hu Gu and Chen Yunxi hastily bowed in greeting.

“Mm,” the Emperor Beast Sect’s Sect Leader, Tang Beifeng, acknowledged with a nod. His voice was flat as he asked, “Chang Fen is dead?”

“Reporting to the Lord Sect Leader…” Cold sweat beaded on Hu Gu’s forehead. “Everything was going smoothly at first. Chang Fen swept aside all his opponents; even the Black Dragon Sect’s head disciple was no match for him. But who could have known…”

“…that you’d run into that Xiao Mo?” Tang Beifeng finished, his voice cold.

“I beg your forgiveness, Lord Sect Leader!” Hu Gu immediately dropped to his knees. “This subordinate swears he will retrieve the key to the Chaos Secret Realm for you and kill Xiao Mo to avenge Chang Fen!”

“Xiao Mo certainly deserves to die. That man is not as simple as he seems. But as for the key to the Chaos Secret Realm, that will no longer be necessary.” Tang Beifeng tossed a letter in front of Hu Gu. “Take a look. It’s from our informant in the Black Dragon Sect.”

Hu Gu hastily opened the envelope. After a glance, he looked up, stunned. “Lord Sect Leader… this is…”

“Luo Jie is certainly no fool.”

Tang Beifeng sneered.

“He’s holding a ’Chaos Grand Ceremony’ and inviting every Sect in the Western Regions to come and share the Chaos Secret Realm!”
