Chapter 430 Lu Wen's Killing Intent

Seeing that Lu Wen still had doubts, Yu Zhun spoke quickly.

"We no longer have anything that the Fifth Divine District fears. What we will face next is the Fifth Divine District's endless revenge."

"Not a second can be wasted!"

“Okay, let’s go!” Lu Wen suddenly looked enlightened and nodded without hesitation.

"Um... gentlemen," Glenn opened his mouth, then hesitated, "may I ask... are we also leaving now?"

“You don’t need to,” Helmod shook his head. “The Fifth Divine District won’t retaliate against you.”

"You've all had a tough journey with us."

"We're about to clear customs, consider this a thank you gift."

As he spoke, he pointed to the checkpoint further down and then looked at Yu Zhun and the other three.

The five people nodded at the same time, and then voluntarily exited the instance.

When only Glenn and his five companions remained in the vast Stone Tree Sea, they recovered from their initial surprise and revealed expressions of delight.

The most difficult dungeon in the world of Divine Revelation, [Abyss of Sighs], was actually conquered by them by sheer accident?

It feels so good to be clinging to someone's coattails!
After a cheer, Glenn and his five companions charged deeper into the area.

"Om-"

With a deep hum, Yu Zhun and Yu Zhu returned to Blue Star. Without the slightest hesitation, they rushed to the Divine Revelation Hall.

The most powerful figures in the Divine Revelation Hall were having a meeting when Yu Zhun and his companion barged in. They weren't angry; instead, Zhu Xiuming smiled and spoke up.

"You two have come at the right time; we were just talking about you."

"You finally returned from the Netherworld, and we were planning a grand welcome banquet, but before we even started, you went off to raid the dungeon again."

At this point, Zhu Xiuming couldn't help but sigh.

"A balance between work and rest is essential; taking a short break is perfectly acceptable."

"Speaking of which, your strategy this time has taken quite a while," Ji Ruoxu chimed in. "Which dungeon were you working on?"

“【The Abyss of Sighs】.” Yu Zhun spoke slowly.

"Oh...oh?" Ji Ruoxu's voice suddenly rose, and the other supreme experts couldn't help but cast surprised glances at him.

None of those old guys who had already leveled up to Lv80 or higher dared to try that dungeon, but Yu Zhun quietly cleared it out?

"So how did the strategy go?" Tang Yulong asked with a chuckle. "You must have cleared it, right?"

"Maybe it'll be a perfect clear."

"Old Tang, shut up." Zhu Xiuming casually checked the God and Demon Medal earnings record in the backend, then lowered his voice a few decibels, "Didn't pass."

If he clears a dungeon, even a normal one, he can see it through the World God and Demon Medal he obtains.

"Ah, this..." Tang Yulong immediately covered his mouth.

“Senior, there’s no need for that.” Yu Zhun shook his head. “We had a chance to pass, but we gave it up for other reasons.”

“There are more important things than this.”

As he spoke, Yu Zhun's expression turned slightly serious.

Seeing Yu Zhun's expression, the atmosphere in the room became more serious, and everyone held their breath as they looked at him.

“We kidnapped the five near-third-tier divine sons of the Fifth Divine Zone in the [Abyss of Sighs] dungeon,” Yu Zhun said in a deep voice.

"I thought it was something serious, is this all?" Ahsoka waved his hand dismissively. "It's just kidnapping..."

"Who did you kidnap?!"

"Five near-third-stage Divine Sons." Zhu Xiuming's expression turned serious. "That should be enough to exchange for quite a few good things, right?"

“We exchanged two Heaven-Mending Jade pieces,” Yu Zhun explained. “One of them was given to Lu Wen to save his teacher’s life.”

"The other one is currently in my possession."

"The specific allocation plan has not yet been decided."

After he finished speaking, he gave a brief introduction to the value of the Heaven-Mending Jade.

After hearing this, the nine supreme experts began to breathe heavily.

Before I knew it, this kid had done something big again!
“The Jade for Patching the Sky…” Zhu Xiuming rubbed his temples, feeling both amused and exasperated.

Although he had never heard of such a treasure before, he could understand how valuable it was from Yu Zhun's description.

Such a thing would be a huge financial blow to the Fifth Divine District.

After this incident, who knows how the other party will deal with them.

"It seems the welcome banquet will have to be postponed again." Taking a deep breath, Zhu Xiuming turned his gaze to the others and nodded slightly.

Decades of tacit understanding, everything is understood without words.

One by one, the strongest figures departed their seats. They would now be on high alert in all areas to prevent the Fifth Divine District's retaliation from causing serious consequences.

After they left, Zhu Xiuming patted Yu Zhun on the shoulder, "Well done this time."

"The Fifth Divine District is so arrogant, we have to find a way to deflate their arrogance. We couldn't do this before, so we could only swallow our anger."

"But now, you've done it." Zhu Xiuming laughed heartily. "Although I'll be busy from now on, my mind is clear!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhun couldn't help but smile.

He understood that Zhu Xiuming was using these words to tell him that he didn't need to feel guilty, and that the strongest beings were more than capable of handling the problems in the Fifth Divine District.

“Senior Zhu, I promise this is just the beginning,” Yu Zhun said earnestly. “I will repay them a hundredfold for the oppression they put on us before.”

"Good!" Zhu Xiuming's eyes flashed with a sharp light.

After informing the Divine Revelation Hall of the situation immediately so that the strongest individuals could prepare themselves, Yu Zhun took Yu Zhu back home. He then immediately contacted Lu Wen on the other side to inquire about the situation of Lu Wen's teacher.

However, the message disappeared without a trace, receiving no reply.

"Lu Wen is probably busy treating his teacher right now," Yu Zhu guessed. "Let's not disturb him for now."

“That makes sense.” Yu Zhun immediately realized this and then turned to contact Helmod and Udir to inquire about their current situation.

Helmod's side was the most relaxed. The Fifth and Fourth Divine Districts were already sworn enemies. During the more than twenty years he disappeared, their confrontation was hardly affected. This time, he and Yu Zhun and others tricked the Fifth Divine District badly, and he even received praise from the God Lord after returning.

This further solidified Helmod's status as the strongest divine child.

As for Udir, he doesn't seem to have been affected either.

Prior to this, server 98324 was not directly targeted by the Fifth God Zone, but rather by a server under the Fifth God Zone.

Udyr has already begun his counterattack since his return.

After tricking the Fifth Divine Realm, Udyr was worried that the Fifth Divine Realm would target their world, but after some precautions, he found that it did not.

After finding out about the two people's situation, Yu Zhun sat on the sofa, but his expression did not relax at all; instead, it became serious.

"What's wrong with you?" Yu Zhu couldn't help but ask. "Isn't it a good thing that the Fifth Divine District's retaliation hasn't come?"

“It is indeed a good thing,” Yu Zhun said in a deep voice, “but do you really think the Fifth Divine District will not retaliate at all? The two sides already have old grudges, and this time we have extorted them and they have suffered heavy losses, yet they have not reacted at all?”

Upon hearing this, Yu Zhu's expression also turned serious.

"You mean..." "All of this is probably just the calm before the storm."

Yu Zhun frowned deeply. "I have a lingering unease in my heart."

"It's as if something is about to happen."

At this point, he couldn't help but look at the communication interface in front of him.

The message sent to Lu Wen still received no response.
-
Server number 39393.

"teacher!"

Lu Wen, having left the instance, pushed open the door to his teacher's house with a delighted smile on his face. "Look what I brought you!"

“This time, you can’t…” Before he could finish speaking, a strong smell of blood filled his nostrils, instantly freezing Lu Wen’s smile on his face.

In an instant, an overwhelming sense of unease surged into Lu Wen's heart, causing his mood to plummet from the heavens to the depths of despair. He dashed into the room where the master of the Ascending God Pavilion was recuperating and flung the door open.

血…

Everywhere you looked, there was crimson blood.

In the center of the bloodstains, the master of the Dengshen Pavilion had been pierced through the chest by a sharp spear, his entire body pinned to the wall of the room. The splattered blood stained the entire wall red. His head and limbs hung limply, and there was no trace of life in his empty body.

Lu Wen's eyes also turned blood red in an instant.

"No!!!!!"

He roared like a madman, rushed to the corpse of the Pavilion Master of the Ascending God Pavilion, his pupils contracted, and he stared blankly at his teacher's face.

The lowered face came into clear view of Lu Wen. The aged face was filled with frozen anger and astonishment. The wide-open eyes had long lost their luster, but one could still feel the anger in front of the teacher.

"Clang-crack-"

With a crisp sound, the Heaven-Mending Jade, which Lu Wen had been tightly clutching in his hand, quietly fell to the ground. It was too late.

Who is it…?

"Who is it?!?!"

Lu Wen roared, and the sword light that shot into the sky instantly overturned the dome. Streaks of blood light appeared around him, and his terrifying aura instantly attracted the attention of countless people. But when they saw the direction from which the aura came, all that remained was a sigh and lament.

The child... is back.

In the days following the death of the Lord of the Divine Pavilion, no one dared to claim his body, for they knew Lu Wen's character well.

The Lord of the Divine Pavilion was Lu Wen's closest person, and everything in his life. Lu Wen would definitely take care of his final journey himself.

But they were even more aware of the terrible consequences that would result from showing Lu Wen the tragic state of the Pavilion Master of the Divine Ascension.

But what's meant to happen will eventually happen.

"Lu Wen, calm down." A figure appeared quietly behind Lu Wen, shouting in a low voice while placing a hand on Lu Wen's shoulder.

The immense power of the third-level cultivator instantly suppressed Lu Wen's aura, but it could not suppress the blood-red light surrounding him.

"How can I possibly stay calm?!" Lu Wen said, enunciating each word clearly. "Berul, tell me who it is?"

"Who killed my teacher?!"

"I clearly..." Lu Wen collapsed to his knees, slamming his fist into the ground. He seemed oblivious to the splattering blood and exposed bone, tears streaming from his eyes. "I clearly found a way to save him..."

Belur glanced at the Sky-Mending Jade on the ground and sighed.

He had already found out the whole story.

But that's precisely why he felt even more heartbroken.

“Luwen, listen to me,” Belur said in a deep voice. “Your teacher died three days ago, and the person who killed him was Arcatos.”

Arcatos…

Lu Wen slowly clenched his fist.

That's the deputy head of the Divine Ascension Pavilion, and the second most powerful person in the world after my teacher. Is he so eager to take the position of head of the pavilion?
“I am the protector of your world. According to the agreement, I cannot interfere in the affairs of your world at will, but I made an exception at that time.”

Belur sighed. "I subdued Arcatos, and he is now imprisoned by the rest of the Ascendant."

Upon hearing this, Lu Wen suddenly raised his head, his eyes flashing with murderous intent.

"Don't rush." ​​Bellur tightened his grip on Luwen's shoulder. "Leaving him here is partly so you can take revenge yourself."

"But on the other hand... there's more to this story."

"Akatos was acting under orders."

At this point, deep hatred and sorrow welled up in Bellur's eyes. "Your teacher was a close friend to whom I entrusted my life. No one expected him to end up like this."

"But the more this is the case, the more you need to stay calm."

"This was also his request to me at the end of his life."

“Tell me, who instigated this?” Lu Wen’s voice was hoarse, filled with intense hatred and deep pain.

“Something’s not right with you,” Belur said, his brow furrowed. “I can’t tell you the truth under these circumstances.”

"Get yourself in the right mindset, Lu Wen."

"Don't let hatred consume you and destroy you."

"Tell me!!!" Lu Wen suddenly raised his head, his blood-red eyes staring directly at the silent Belur. After a moment, he grinned, revealing a slightly ferocious smile, "Hehehehe... Hahahahaha!"

"Just because you didn't tell me doesn't mean I wouldn't know."

"It's the Fifth Divine District, right?"

"They knew what I wanted from the Jade of Heaven-Mending, so they gave it to me, but then turned my hope into despair." Lu Wen raised his head and then slowly lowered it, his occasional laughter sending chills down one's spine.

Bellur's expression changed slightly, and he was about to say something when Luwen's laughter stopped abruptly.

When he raised his head again, his face was as calm as a deep pool.

He slowly rose and gently pulled the spear that had pierced the chest of the Pavilion Master of the Ascension God Pavilion. Then, he gently lifted the Pavilion Master's body, allowing him to lie flat on the clean ground without any bumps.

Then, he gently and patiently massaged the neck and shoulders of the God of Ascension Pavilion Master in the most tender way, gradually bringing the stiff corpse back to life, and finally restoring the God of Ascension Pavilion Master's body to a lying position.

Then, Lu Wen gently covered the aged face of the Pavilion Master of the Ascension God Pavilion with his hand. When he released his hand, the Pavilion Master of the Ascension God Pavilion's wide-open angry eyes had closed, and even the angry expression on his face had turned into a peaceful one.

Finally, Lu Wen dressed the Lord of the Divine Pavilion in clean clothes, scattered small white flowers around his body, and finally completely covered the huge wound on his chest.

After doing all this, Lu Wen raised his hand and destroyed the wall stained with blood, then turned to look at Belur, who had been standing silently to the side.

Let's hold a funeral for the teacher.

“I am his only disciple, and he is the person closest to me.”

"At the end of his life, I want to see him off."

After saying that, he smiled at Belur.

Lu Wen's smile was clear in the sunlight.

But in Belur's eyes, it was like a demon about to crawl out of hell, unleashing its murderous intent without restraint.
