Chaos Heavenly Emperor Technique

Capítulo 1526: Chapter 1527: Fragrant Soul, Jade Perishes! (Second Update)

The night is as dark as ink, and the Imperial City, once always bustling as the City of Eternal Night, has no longer its past prosperity and liveliness, the entire city has an overwhelming sense of desolation and bleakness.

Faintly visible are flickering flames, the soldiers patrolling the city, tirelessly capturing rebels day and night.

Not long after, Ling Feng arrived at his Weiyuan General Mansion, which had developed into a branch of the Lingshen Sect. His original intention was to allow the disciples of the Lingshen Sect to step out from the Immortal Trace Mountain Range and compete with the talents in the Imperial City. Only then could the entire Lingshen Sect become more established and turn into the Empire’s top sect.

However, due to this reason, when the coup was launched, the elite members of the sect remaining in the Imperial City, such as Lo Jianying, Jiang Wanqing, and others, were imprisoned here; of course, this included Su Hongxiu, who had once served by Ling Feng’s side.

Moreover, many new generation elite members of Lingshen Sect were also detained, and their cultivation was completely lost.

“Ah! ——”

A scream echoed through the night sky as a Lingshen Sect disciple suddenly began to tremble violently, black mist swirling on his face, seemingly enduring immense pain.

“No… I don’t want to die, Senior Brother, save me, please save me!”

That disciple stared fixedly in Lo Jianying’s direction, his body beginning to ignite with a black flame. No, it was not flame, but a mass of black particulate mist decomposing his body bit by bit, spreading from his calf, and then his entire body turned into a layer of black fine sand, vanishing without a trace with a breeze.

In fact, these days, he was not the first disciple to die so tragically before everyone’s eyes.

“Junior Sun!”

Lo Jianying clenched his fists tightly, but could do nothing, forced to watch helplessly as his fellow disciples continued to die.

Without warning, they perished!

Before being detained here, they all had been forced to ingest a certain elixir, which clearly sealed their cultivation and acted like a time bomb, unpredictably consuming their lives.

“We… we will also die like this!”

“Oh my god, I don’t want to die!”

Almost every day, one or two disciples died, and no one knew who would be next, everyone undoubtedly lived in immense fear.

“Everyone, be shocked but don’t panic!”

Jiang Wanqing took a deep breath, loudly urging everyone to stay calm, yet in such an atmosphere, who could remain calm.

“Junior Lo, you say something too!”

Jiang Wanqing turned to look at Lo Jianying, who, for more than a year, had surpassed everyone to become the most outstanding disciple of Lingshen Sect, his cultivation surpassing hers.

Now, Lo Jianying was indeed the spiritual leader of all the disciples.

“Say what? Senior Sister Jiang, let it be, right now we can only wait to die! You can feel it too, that strange elixir continuously transforms the elemental power within us into a very unstable force, perhaps when all elemental power is transformed, that will be the moment of our death. At this rate, even I might not live past a month!”

“With us now unable even to bind a chicken, let alone those powerful rulers, even the guards here can easily slaughter us! Is there any solution left? Who will come to rescue us?”

Lo Jianying sighed lightly, once, no matter when, he was always full of confidence and hope, but this time he only felt as though he had fallen into a hopeless hell.

No hope, not even a shred of hope!

“But… but I think…”

At this moment, a weak voice came, “I believe, the Sect Leader will surely save everyone.”

Lo Jianying looked over and saw Su Hongxiu weakly leaning against the wall.

Her cultivation was relatively weak, she didn’t have much elemental power to resist the elixir, and in these days, her body had become increasingly frail, nearly identical to those disciples about to die.

“Maybe…”

Lo Jianying gritted his teeth; he knew Su Hongxiu might soon die, granting her a bit of hope before her death was worthwhile.

But if he could choose, he would rather Ling Feng not come back because now the Imperial City is a Dragon Pond and Tiger Cave, and if Ling Feng returns, it would undoubtedly be walking into a trap.

“Hongxiu…”

Jiang Wanqing struggled to stand up, slowly walked towards Su Hongxiu and said through gritted teeth: “Hold on Hongxiu, you must not give up, wait for the Sect Leader to return, you must wait for him to come back!”

“I…”

Su Hongxiu’s eyes slightly reddened, shook her head weakly, and she said with a bitter smile: “Sister Qing, I… I fear I won’t… won’t be able to wait for him…”

As her words fell, a mass of black smoke started to arise from Su Hongxiu’s body, the hearts of all the disciples were weighed down with indescribable heaviness.

Everyone knew, Su Hongxiu was about to die, she ultimately could not resist.

“Pull yourself together, Hongxiu! Don’t die, you mustn’t die!”

Jiang Wanqing cried out in grief, held on tightly to Su Hongxiu’s body, shaking her continually, but she could do nothing, unable even to channel her elemental power into Su Hongxiu to help resist the elixir’s effects.

…

“Hmm? This sound!”

Meanwhile, Ling Feng finally arrived at Weiyuan General Mansion, heard the heart-wrenching cries and quickly displayed Unlimited Vision, instantly locking on Jiang Wanqing’s direction.

“Something’s wrong; Hongxiu is in trouble!”

Ling Feng furrowed his brows, in a flash, directly passed through the layers of guards outside the mansion, stealthily sneaking into the mansion unnoticed.

With his speed and the cover of night, no one detected any anomaly, even the guards outside mocked heartlessly at the cries inside.

These days, they had long become accustomed to such scenes.

In the next moment, Ling Feng appeared outside the hall where Lingshen Sect disciples were detained, a few guards suddenly noticed a shadow before them, then saw a flash and fell into a Phantom Realm, unable to extricate themselves.

Flying into the hall, in a flash, Ling Feng was already beside Jiang Wanqing, spoke in a deep voice: “Wanqing, let me take a look!”

“Hmm?”

Up until this moment, Jiang Wanqing suddenly realized there was actually a man in black standing beside her, the disciples in the hall were startled.

Previously, they hadn’t noticed anyone appearing!

“It’s me!”

Ling Feng took off his mask, gestured for silence to everyone, and said calmly: “You all needn’t worry, now that I’m here, I will rescue everyone!”

“Sect… Sect Leader!”

Lo Jianying’s eyes moistened; Ling Feng truly returned!

He was like a god, appearing to rescue them in their most desperate hour!
