Chapter 932: Chapter 936 Visitors from the Heavenly Mansion
As the Gang Wind halted briefly, several figures hurriedly arrived from the distance.
Leading the group was Duan Tiandao, followed by Guo Gang.
Behind them were Chen Tian’en, Ye Hai, and several Heaven-Rank Peak martial artists from the Heavenly Mansion.
Chen Tian’en’s face was filled with darkness.
Last night, he received news from Duan Tiandao that Xia Liu had perished in the Forbidden Land of the Guo Family in Harbor City!
This news nearly shattered him.
Xia Liu was extraordinarily significant and indispensable to him, the Chen Family, the Heavenly Mansion, and even the Huaxia Warrior Realm.
If he truly perished, it would be a loss for the entire martial arts world.
To keep the news from causing unrest, Chen Tian’en had only inford Ye Hai, and at dawn, set out with a few guards.
After traveling through the morning,
He finally arrived at the Guo Family grounds.
“Daoist Fellow Chen, this is the place where Chief Xia t his demise.”
Duan Tiandao quickly introduced the site upon arrival.
Looking at the kneeling Guo Family mbers scattered across the ground, Chen Tian’en remained silent.
His steps gradually slowed.
On the way, Duan Tiandao had described to him the events leading up to Xia Liu’s demise.
Breaking through the Heaven and Earth Gang Wind, battling an Ancient Ferocious Beast.
Ultimately slaying the beast, only to et his end in the unfathomable depths of the valley, surrounded by rampaging winds.
Up ahead, a rectangular white table stood prominently with a plaque erected upon it.
Xia Liu’s na was carved into its surface.
Three enormous incense sticks burned fiercely in the brazier…
The funeral, the graveyard!
Chen Tian’en’s steps faltered. The mont he saw the plaque, it felt as though all his strength had been drained.
“Senior Xia!”
Chen Tian’en broke down completely, collapsing to his knees with a heart-wrenching cry that echoed his overwhelming anguish.
It felt as though his very soul had succumbed to sorrow.
“Senior Xia, how could you perish? The Heavenly Mansion, Hejing, the Warrior Realm all need you! How could you leave before ? I never even got to properly thank you!”
“Daoist Fellow Chen, please restrain yourself. Let the departed rest in peace. Don’t disturb Chief Xia’s solace in the heavens.”
Duan Tiandao stepped forward to help Chen Tian’en up.
But Chen Tian’en refused to listen. He glanced ahead, then suddenly leaped forth, intent on descending into the Secluded Valley to retrieve Xia Liu.
At that mont, Guo Po, who was seated cross-legged at the edge of the valley, opened his eyes and waved his palm. A powerful vigor knocked Chen Tian’en back.
“The Gang Wind within the valley is too fierce; not even an Innate Warrior can tread through, let alone soone like you who is rely at the Path-Entering stage.”
As Guo Po explained, the presence of his Innate warrior’s aura emanated outward.
Sensing the terrifying aura, the Heaven-Rank warriors who accompanied Chen Tian’en trembled uncontrollably.
They had never encountered such an oppressive force.
Chen Tian’en and Ye Hai were equally shaken.
An Innate Warrior!
The supre beings of the Warrior Era!
They hadn’t anticipated eting an Innate Warrior here in Harbor City today!
Terrifying!
“Senior, Xia Liu was my benefactor. Now that he has perished here, even if it costs
my life, I must bring him ho.”
Chen Tian’en wasn’t stunned for long. With Xia Liu’s remains lost in the valley ahead, not even the presence of an Innate Sovereign could deter him.
“Ah, Chief Xia was also a benefactor of my Guo Family. He vanquished the Fla Jiao, sparing my family from a catastrophe looming in the future. I also wish to repay him. But Gang Wind continues to surge violently from the valley floor; even Innate Warriors cannot advance beyond three hundred ters.”
“Not even Innate Warriors can go beyond three hundred ters?”
Chen Tian’en and Ye Hai trembled simultaneously.
Innate Warriors represented the pinnacle of mortal power.
If even they couldn’t proceed, Chen Tian’en feared that he would die the mont he touched the Gang Wind.
“Indeed. When I attempted to delve into the Gang Wind to rescue Chief Xia, I was forced to retreat.”
“Dare I ask, how did Chief Xia manage to enter the Gang Wind?”
Ye Hai voiced his doubts. If Innate Warriors couldn’t progress three hundred ters, how did Xia Liu enter?
Moreover, according to Duan Tiandao’s account, Xia Liu even slew a ferocious beast.
The story seed sowhat implausible.
“Chief Xia’s cultivation likely surpassed that of any Innate Warrior. He strode upon his sword, battled the Fla Jiao, unleashed Divine Power Art, and with one final stroke, felled the Flood Dragon. Tragically, he exhausted his energy and fell…”
Guo Po had been filled with regret these past two days.
An extraordinary warrior like Xia Liu—his loss was surely devastating to the martial arts world.
If Guo Po had been stronger, perhaps he could have saved him…
“He already surpassed Innate Cultivation?”
Chen Tian’en and Ye Hai could hardly believe it.
Yet the facts left no room for doubt.
Back when Xia Liu participated in the Heavenly Mansion Chief’s assessnt in Yanjing, he had already displayed terrifying abilities.
In retrospect, he had been hiding his true strength.
Sadly, from today onward, he would never be seen again…
“Senior, regardless of the dangers posed by the Gang Wind ahead, I wish to try.”
After a mont of silence, Chen Tian’en still made this request.
Even if it cost his own life, he would retrieve Xia Liu.
His family was now stable, as was the Heavenly Mansion.
The one thing weighing heavily on his mind was Xia Liu.
If he could accomplish this for Xia Liu, he would die without regrets.
“That’s impossible. If Chief Xia were here, he would certainly forbid you from going.”
Guo Po was resolute. Not even Innate Warriors could descend, let alone a Path-Entering mid-stage warrior accompanied by one in the late stage.
“Senior, I’m not afraid. Besides, there’s no Gang Wind here…”
Hmm?
At those words, Guo Po suddenly reacted.
Earlier, when Chen Tian’en and the others arrived, the Gang Wind in the valley had indeed stopped.
Such occurrences weren’t unusual.
The Gang Wind often paused briefly before resuming, much like breathing—alternating between inhalation and exhalation.
However, the duration of this halt seed unusually long.
“It seems sothing is erging from the valley below!”
“It’s moving very fast!”
Sensing an abnormal aura, Guo Po’s expression beca grim.
A vision of the Fla Jiao flashed through his mind.
The creature’s massive fra was terrifying beyond asure.
He suspected it was an unkillable being.
Perhaps the thing surging upward was the Fla Jiao!
After all, the Gang Wind ceased only when the Fla Jiao took action.
“Everyone back away! It might be the Fla Jiao coming out!”
“The Fla Jiao!”
At the ntion of this na, the Guo Family mbers scrambled to retreat.
They had seen the ferocious beast’s horrifying presence firsthand. Even Xia Liu, godlike in his power, had been exhausted to his very limits.
If the Fla Jiao, pierced through the head, had truly not perished, the situation could turn catastrophic.
“It was the Fla Jiao that killed Senior Xia? Today, I will give everything I have!” Chen Tian’en felt no fear nor regret. Today, either the Fla Jiao would die, or he would fall!
As Chen Tian’en’s thoughts settled, a shadow shot upward from the valley.
“It’s the Fla Jiao!”
Seeing that blood-red figure, Guo Po was filled with horror.
Before anyone could react, the Fla Jiao crashed downward at incredibly high speed.
Boom!
Its enormous body collided with the ground, shaking the surroundings, sending dust flying, and plunging the scene into eerie silence…
