The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 2338: Chapter 2338: Three Hundred Year Deadline

Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud squinted his eyes and sent a message to Wu Guo Heavenly Lord.

”Senior Fire Cloud is looking for me?” Wu Guo Heavenly Lord’s voice quickly came through the communication magical treasure.

”Wu Guo Heavenly Lord, do you know that my disciple Min Lan was killed by Jing Yan?” Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud’s voice was deep, carrying a questioning tone.

Of course, Wu Guo Heavenly Lord had already known this matter. Shortly after Jing Yan killed Min Lan Immortal Venerable, Xima Immortal Venerable reported this incident via transmission.

”What? There is actually such a thing?” Wu Guo Heavenly Lord acted surprised.

”Could it be that Wu Guo Heavenly Lord is unaware of this matter?” Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud’s voice hardened.

”Senior Fire Cloud, I was actually in seclusion during this period, so I’m not up to date with what happened outside... This... is indeed shocking news. Min Lan was actually killed by Jing Yan! I understand, it must be because of Min Lan helping the Slaughter God Hall capture Wuxia Immortal Venerable that Jing Yan found out, and in rage, he killed Min Lan.” Wu Guo Heavenly Lord’s tone was filled with regret.

This might seem like an offhand statement, but in reality, it was also exonerating Jing Yan.

The implication was that Min Lan assisted the Slaughter God Hall in capturing his Daoist couple, so naturally, he would seek revenge. In the end, it was Min Lan Immortal Venerable who was at fault first.

”Heh...” Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud’s eyes flickered. If he couldn’t discern the underlying meaning of Wu Guo Heavenly Lord’s words, then he would have lived in vain for so long.

”Wu Guo Heavenly Lord, shouldn’t you give me an explanation for this matter?” Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud said again.

”What do you mean, Senior Fire Cloud? I’m a bit unclear; please clarify.” Wu Guo Heavenly Lord feigned ignorance.

”Min Lan is my disciple, and Jing Yan is Wu Guo Heavenly Lord’s man. Jing Yan killed my disciple. The reason I didn’t go directly to kill Jing Yan is because of Wu Guo Heavenly Lord’s face. Don’t you owe me an explanation?” Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud said slowly.

”Senior Fire Cloud, you really misunderstood. Jing Yan is not my subordinate. As for Wuxia Immortal Venerable, he was actually my subordinate, yet Min Lan helped the Slaughter God Hall capture Wuxia Immortal Venerable. Thinking about this matter makes me feel quite aggrieved!” Wu Guo Heavenly Lord hinted tactfully.

”Fine! Very well!” After saying these words, Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud directly interrupted the transmission with Wu Guo Heavenly Lord.

He already understood; Wu Guo Heavenly Lord surely anticipated that he would send a message, so he had thought in advance of how to deal with him. This transmission was a futile effort and resulted in hitting a brick wall.

”I’ll wait for three hundred years!” After putting away the communication magical treasure, Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud said in a chilling voice.

Three hundred years later, if Jing Yan goes to the Slaughter God Hall, he will inevitably die, saving him the trouble of making a move.

”Master, are we going to do nothing now?” That disciple glanced up at Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud and asked.

Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud pondered and said, ”Spread the word, say that I, Fire Cloud, am waiting for Jing Yan at Fiery Flame Extreme Territory. I will give him three hundred years. If he doesn’t come to Fiery Flame Extreme Territory to end his life in three hundred years, I will make him regret it.”

This disciple, upon hearing Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud’s words, immediately understood his master’s intentions.

”Yes, Master, I will spread the news right away.” The disciple turned and left.

The news that Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud gave Jing Yan a time of three hundred years spread at an incredible speed throughout Faro Heaven.

First, Jing Yan said that he would personally go to destroy the Slaughter God Hall after three hundred years, then Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud gave Jing Yan three hundred years to come and apologize. Observant people, of course, understood the mystery within.

Some of the big figures in Faro Heaven, upon hearing this event, couldn’t help but chuckle and shake their heads.

”It seems that old man Fire Cloud also doesn’t have absolute confidence! Otherwise, why would he wait three hundred years?”

”This Jing Yan is really not simple; he even made Fire Cloud hesitate.”

”...”

In Faro Heaven, quite a few big figures were in their abodes, emitting similar comments.

Besides those who stood at the Immortal Venerable Peak Level, there were also many cultivators in the Immortal Venerable Realm who began shouting, and some even openly insulted Jing Yan. Others said Jing Yan was unforgivable for killing Min Lan Immortal Venerable. Most of these people said such hypocritical words to curry favor with Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud.

Even cultivators who have entered the Immortal Venerable Realm, many still lack the backbone in front of someone like Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud. To ingratiate themselves, they do not hesitate to flatter humiliatingly, throwing away their dignity.

Various messy messages naturally spread to Wuxia City. Che Zi sorted and organized this information, then transmitted some relatively important pieces to Jing Yan, who, after understanding, just smiled and didn’t bother to respond.

...

”Jing Yan is just trash!”

”This child is insane. He actually killed Min Lan Immortal Venerable.”

”Hmph, how strong can he be? Even if he’s an Immortal Venerable, he is just a newly promoted one, not having even obtained the Immortal Venerable Seal yet. For him to kill Min Lan Immortal Venerable, he must have used some special means. That’s not his real strength.”

”What did you say? That saying this could offend Jing Yan and I should worry about his revenge? Haha, what a joke, would I, Ke Fa, fear retaliation from a junior?”

”Let me tell you, even if this beast doesn’t come for me, I’ll go for him. Isn’t he hiding in Wuxia City? I’m going to Wuxia City to find him right now!”

Soon after Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud sent out the message giving Jing Yan three hundred years, many people began to curse Jing Yan, with Immortal Venerable Ke Fa being the most active among them. During this time, Immortal Venerable Ke Fa traveled incessantly across various cities or regions, cursing and slandering Jing Yan with numerous words.

In such a short period, his comments spread extensively.

Of course, Immortal Venerable Ke Fa did it intentionally.

He did this to express his attitude and let Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud know where he stood.

Immortal Venerable Ke Fa’s strength wasn’t considered powerful, barely reaching the intermediate position among Immortal Venerable Realm cultivators. However, he had one specialty: his expertise in Void Dao was ranked among the top ten in Faro Heaven, comparable to the Shadow Demon Saint of Slaughter God Hall.

In other words, his escape ability was outstanding, making it extremely difficult, even for a strong figure like Wu Guo Heavenly Lord, to kill him.

After spreading humiliating remarks about Jing Yan for a period, this Immortal Venerable Ke Fa actually approached Wuxia City. It seemed he indeed planned to find Jing Yan there.

About a week later, Immortal Venerable Ke Fa arrived outside Wuxia City.

At this time, in Faro Heaven, there were indeed quite a few cultivators paying attention to Immortal Venerable Ke Fa, even many Immortals paying heed to his actions.

”Immortal Venerable Ke Fa, really going to find Jing Yan?”

”He... I thought he just jumped on stage to curse to gain attention and win Immortal Venerable Fire Cloud’s favor, but I didn’t expect him to actually go to Wuxia City.”

Some cultivators in the Immortal Venerable Realm were quite surprised.
