Chapter 40 Shifting the Blame East: Xia Jin's Trap

Xia Jin slowly stood up, but her gaze was fixed on the city that was faintly visible in the distance.

According to intelligence, Liu Yan, the fourth elder of the Wusheng Sect, would return to his clan for a few days every three months, and his clan was located in Lingtian City, which was less than ten miles away from here.

Now, the timing is perfect, as Liu Yan himself is in Lingtian City.

"Excellent, everything is going according to my plan! Next, we need to find a way to lure those people from the Jade Balance Sect into Lingtian City!"

Xia Jin put on a bronze mask and slowly walked towards Lingtian City.

He dared not walk too fast, fearing the people from the Jade Balance Sect wouldn't be able to keep up. However, he was unaware that as the jade token of the Jade Balance Sect's direct disciple was crushed, a unique fragrance would linger on his body.

Sure enough, before he had even walked three miles, a powerful palm strike came straight at him.

"Huh!?" Xia Jin suddenly frowned and moved dozens of meters to the right in one step. The three tall trees, each over ten feet high, that he had been standing on snapped in two.

"It was you who killed my nephew Lin Xiao of the Jade Balance Sect!"

A thin, white-haired old man landed directly in front of Xia Jin, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

"Elder of the Jade Balance Sect? You're saying I killed your nephew? Old ghost, don't make false accusations!" Xia Jin glanced at the token at the other party's waist and immediately sneered.

"Slander? You probably don't know that once the token of a direct disciple of the Jade Balance Sect is crushed, a special scent will be tainted on their body." The Third Elder of the Jade Balance Sect said, raising his right hand to prepare to make a move.

"Smell!?" Xia Jin's nostrils twitched slightly, and sure enough, she smelled a faint scent, like the smell of blood mixed with the fragrance of flowers.

"Hmph! Even so, so what? Did you personally witness me killing your nephew? I just happened to pick up that jade pendant." Xia Jin sneered and turned to leave.

"Sharp tongue! Once I catch you, I'll interrogate you carefully, and you'll know!" Seeing that Xia Jin didn't take him seriously at all, the Third Elder's figure disappeared from the spot, and his right hand formed a claw, directly grabbing at Xia Jin's shoulder blade.

"Hmph! I was originally thinking about how to lure you to Lingtian City, but now it's all come to me without any effort!" Xia Jin was secretly delighted to see that the other party wanted to pursue her.

They charged straight towards Lingtian City.

"How can this guy be so fast!" The Third Elder was stunned as he looked at Xia Jin, who had suddenly become more than ten feet away from him.

But he had no time to think and chased after them with all his might.

At their speed, it only took Xia Jin ten breaths to arrive at the gate of Liu Yan's residence, the fourth elder of the Wusheng Sect.

"Hehehe, this is it!" Xia Jin glanced at the plaque with the two big characters "Liu Mansion" hanging above the gate and slipped inside.

Just three breaths after he went inside, the Third Elder of the Jade Balance Sect had already caught up with him.

"Hmph! Did you think you could hide inside and I wouldn't be able to find you?"

"You scoundrels from the Wusheng Sect! Get out here for me!" The Third Elder unleashed his full power as a fifth-level cultivator of the Free and Unfettered Realm, shouting so loudly that several cracks appeared in the gate of the Liu Manor. The street vendors felt a chill run down their spines and hurriedly scattered.

After a few breaths, seeing that there was still no movement, the Third Elder's face turned icy cold.

"Damn it, how dare you ignore me! Everyone in that mansion must die!!"

He took a deep breath and struck out with his right hand in mid-air.

In an instant, a terrifying palm strike smashed through the gate of the Liu residence, and even the surrounding walls, which stretched for dozens of meters, collapsed in response!

The Third Elder sneered and walked straight in. But he was soon dumbfounded.

A set of clothes belonging to a disciple of the Wusheng Sect, imbued with the peculiar scent of the Yuheng Sect, was carelessly tossed aside next to a crooked tree.

"Damn it!!" He immediately attacked in a fit of rage.

"boom--!!!"

In an instant, a deafening roar shook the heavens and the earth trembled.

The pavilions and towers in Liu Mansion collapsed and shattered like paper under his palm, and the artificial hills and gardens were instantly reduced to dust.

Smoke and dust billowed into the sky, and screams and wails echoed everywhere.

Most of the Liu family mansion was in ruins. Countless direct descendants and servants of Liu Yan, the fourth elder of the Wusheng Sect, died on the spot, their blood flowing like a river.

Meanwhile, in a private room of the Ningxiang Pavilion, just two streets away from the Liu residence, Liu Yan, one of the four elders of the Wusheng Sect, was embracing two women.

The sudden, terrifying tremor and explosion made him pause, his glass still.

Liu Yan's expression changed, he pushed the woman in his arms away, stood up abruptly, and rushed to the window.

He saw billowing smoke and dust and flickering flames coming from the direction of the Liu residence, which made his heart pound with fear.

"Not good!" Without even having time to put on his outer robe, his bare, muscular upper body smashed through the window and transformed into a streak of light rushing towards his mansion.

In the blink of an eye, he found himself in the ruins of the Liu residence. The horrific scene before him made his head spin, as if it were about to explode.

He suddenly looked up and stared intently at the figure in front of him.

"Yue Qianfeng! You old bastard!" Liu Yan's eyes instantly filled with bloodshot veins, and a violent killing intent surged to the sky. "How dare you trespass on the territory of my Wusheng Sect and slaughter my Liu family members!"

Yue Qianfeng was stunned when he saw Liu Yan in front of him.

He never expected that the person who rushed out at this moment would be Liu Yan, the fourth elder of the Wusheng Sect, with whom he had fought before!

"Oh no!" Yue Qianfeng's heart sank.

He vaguely realized that he had probably fallen into a trap!

That person most likely deliberately led him here!

"Wait! This is a trap, a misunderstanding!" Yue Qianfeng, the third elder of the Jade Balance Sect, hurriedly shouted, trying to explain.

"Misunderstanding? Hahahaha!" Liu Yan roared to the sky, clenching his teeth tightly. "So many people from my Liu family have died, and you tell me it's a misunderstanding? Yue Qianfeng! Today, I will make you pay for your blood debt and be buried with my clan!"

He roared out the last word, "to be buried with you," with almost all his might, his voice shaking the entire city!

The crowd in Lingtian City was alarmed, and they all looked up in the direction of the Liu family, and discussions arose everywhere.

"That voice sounds like Elder Liu Yan of the Wusheng Sect!"

"What on earth happened to the Liu family?!"

"This is a big deal!"

"You old thief, prepare to die!" Liu Yan roared, unleashing his aura as a fourth-level cultivator of the Free and Unfettered Realm, and lunged directly at Yue Qianfeng!

Yue Qianfeng's face was ashen. He knew that nothing he said now would make a difference; Liu Yan had completely lost his mind.

Although his cultivation level was one level higher, he was in the heart of the Wusheng Sect's territory. If he were to get entangled there, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Don't linger in the fight!" Yue Qianfeng made a decisive move. Facing Liu Yan's charge, he gathered azure light in his right palm and fiercely met the attack.

"Bang!!!"

The two palms collided like thunder, and Liu Yan was forced back dozens of steps, his blood and qi churning.

Taking advantage of this brief moment, Yue Qianfeng did not hesitate, transforming into a beam of blue light and shooting towards the outside of Lingtian City!

"Where do you think you're going!" Liu Yan forcibly suppressed his surging blood and qi, his eyes bloodshot, and chased after him without a care.

The two figures vanished outside Lingtian City in an instant.

Just then, from the shadows of a secluded alley in the city, Xia Jin slowly emerged. Gazing in the direction where the two had disappeared, a smug smile appeared on her face.
