The burly man narrowed his eyes, carefully sizing up Wang Sheng. After a moment's thought, he revealed a playful expression and let out a cold sneer.

"Ha! That's rather ridiculous!"

After learning about Wang Sheng's background, the burly man dropped all pretense and didn't even bother to maintain his feigned friendliness, revealing his true character and face.

Wang Sheng turned around, his cold eyes falling on the burly man. His gaze was deep and sharp, like a terrifying weapon piercing the man's heart. The slightly suppressed aura made the burly man's heart skip a beat.

This is the murderous aura that Wang Sheng cultivated after slaughtering countless masters of the He Jin sect.

Its power and influence have long surpassed this level, making it comparable to a Primordial Immortal.

"Hahaha!"

"Senior Brother Zhang Yang, I've recently acquired a fine tea. Would you be so kind as to come and taste it?"

Liu Yun's soft laughter broke the stagnant and cold atmosphere in the courtyard.

She smiled sweetly at the burly Zhang Yang, her bright eyes filled with tenderness and affection. It seemed as if no one else existed in her gaze.

"Very well, very well. How could I, your senior brother, refuse such an invitation from Junior Sister Liu Yun!"

Zhang Yang laughed and, following Liu Yun's invitation, entered the house.

Both of them naturally ignored Wang Sheng, did not communicate with him, treated him as if he were invisible, and no longer took Wang Sheng, the newcomer, seriously.

Or rather, they simply didn't bother to communicate with Wang Sheng anymore.

Inferior physical constitution!

Even if they have a powerful background, they are still members of the royal family and have little future prospects, let alone the chance to break through to the Innate Realm.

The resources required to help someone with inferior aptitude break through to the Innate Realm are equivalent to dozens, or even hundreds, of times the resources required for an ordinary Grandmaster of Harmonious Strength to break through to the Innate Realm!

Such a terrifying price is one that even the royal family would never bear.

Those who manage to pass through layers of selection to enter the Zhen Ding Sect and become outer disciples are all masters of combined strength, possessing superior innate talent and comprehension, with limitless potential. If they obtain the innate methods, they may all ascend to the heavens and become true immortals in one step.

Therefore, even if Liu Yun and Zhang Yang have only a one in ten chance of breaking through to the Innate Realm, they are still far more important than Wang Sheng, a Grandmaster of the Combined Forces who has absolutely no chance of breaking through to the Innate Realm.

call……

Wang Sheng let out a soft breath, suppressing the murderous intent in his heart, and calmed down.

Killing people directly at the Zhen Ding sect's headquarters has a bad influence.

Let's wait until tonight.

at dusk,

Li Yuqing, the fourth outer disciple who lived in the courtyard, has returned.

As soon as Li Yuqing entered the door, Zhang Yang called her into the house.

The courtyard wasn't large, and Zhang Yang didn't bother to conceal his voice, or rather, he deliberately let Wang Sheng hear him.

"Junior Brother Li, do you know that a low-level Qi Integration Master with inferior physique came to our courtyard? I almost died laughing! You have no idea, I couldn't believe it at the time..."

"Senior Brother Zhang, what if that junior brother overhears us?"

"Hmph, so what if he heard? I'm an outer disciple of the Zhen Ding Sect. Do you think I'm afraid of him? Besides, the forces behind him probably put a lot of effort into getting him into the sect. And he still wants to target me? My background isn't weak either. Besides, heh heh, doesn't he even look at his own physique? A mere lowly servant, does he think he's qualified to send someone to mess with me?"

"Junior Brother Li, don't speak to him. This kid is extremely arrogant; he needs to be taught a lesson!"

"Sigh, Senior Brother Zhang, I understand."

Li Yuqing then left Zhang Yang's room and returned to her own, showing no intention of communicating with Wang Sheng.

Zhang Yang stood at the doorway, his gaze mocking as he looked at Wang Sheng's quiet room, the candlelight flickering, but his heart grew increasingly uncomfortable and annoyed.

In fact, during the daytime confrontation, he was actually afraid, felt timid, and chickened out.

Moreover, this scene was witnessed by Junior Sister Liu Yun. If it weren't for Junior Sister Liu Yun's intervention, he would probably have lost face in front of this monkey with inferior aptitude.

This made Zhang Yang's anger simmer and grow stronger every time he recalled what happened during the day.

So Zhang Yang secretly sabotaged Wang Sheng, making Wang Sheng feel uncomfortable.

"Isolating you is none of your business! What can you do about it anyway!"

Zhang Yang muttered to himself, but he was actually speaking to Wang Sheng.

Then Zhang Yang went back into the house, not giving Wang Sheng a chance to reply.

Night falls.

Wang Sheng controlled his physical body, reduced his physical sensations and breathing, suppressed his heartbeat to almost zero, and walked out of the room.

He knew that a True Immortal from the Zhen Ding Sect was in charge of the temple.

However, being able to stay at the temple and not return to the mountains to cultivate doesn't necessarily mean one is a particularly powerful innate being.

Moreover, even the most skilled expert cannot monitor every residence in the entire hall and every Grandmaster of the Harmony Realm at all times; that's unrealistic.

So, Wang Sheng set off.

The temple is closed to the public at night.

Wang Sheng first walked out of his residence at No. 15, suppressing all his energy, and strolled leisurely down the corridor.

Half a day passed, and no one showed up.

Then Wang Sheng returned to the mansion and went back to his room.

The moon rises higher in the evening and then slowly sets.

Wang Sheng didn't go out for most of the night.

As dawn approached and the sky began to lighten,

Zhang Yang's room,

A figure was already standing in front of him, who was sitting cross-legged.

What's terrifying is that Zhang Yang didn't notice anything at all.

puff!

Zhang Yang suddenly felt a sharp pain between his eyebrows, and his consciousness instantly dissipated, plunging him into darkness.

His seated body went limp and collapsed.

"It's a pity we didn't give him a chance to open his eyes and see who killed him!"

Wang Sheng felt a little regretful.

"I hope you can guess it the moment before you die. Otherwise, I'll feel uneasy!"

Wang Sheng stared at Zhang Yang's corpse, muttering to himself.

then,

The next day arrived.

Li Yuqing hurriedly went out.

Liu Yun stepped out of the room and sensed that there was no movement or life in Zhang Yang's room. She assumed that he had already left, so she planned to leave the mansion and head to the mission hall to see what missions she could take on.

But the next moment,

Liu Yun was startled; she seemed to smell a faint scent of blood.

It's very faint and light.

But it does exist.

Zhang Yang's death has been discovered.

The temple was greatly shaken.

The innate master who was in charge of this place was held accountable.

This is the first time in many years that a disciple has died inside the hall of the Zhen Ding Sect.

The first person to be suspected was naturally Wang Sheng.

But Wang Sheng insisted that he was framed.

He had just had a conflict with Zhang Yang, but Zhang Yang died that night.

Isn't this an obvious setup?

Moreover, as a Grandmaster of the Harmonious Force, he never left his hall from day to night, so it was impossible for him to have someone assassinate him. He himself was not qualified to kill someone under the nose of a True Immortal.

Therefore, it's impossible that it was murder.

Finally, Wang Sheng took out his token, the symbol of his entry into the sect, and swore an oath that if he lied, all generations of his clansmen who had inherited the token would die a terrible death, until they were all wiped out.

After discussing it, the several True Immortals from the Zhen Ding Sect who came down from the mountain to investigate decided to temporarily trust Wang Sheng.

First, there is indeed no evidence, and it is unlikely that Wang Sheng committed the murder.

Secondly, that token was bestowed by a former True Lord of the Zhen Ding Sect, whose successor is still cultivating within the sect.

No matter what, they should at least give face to the deceased True Lord and leave a good impression on his successors, even if they don't care about the monks.

then,

Wang Sheng successfully escaped.

This was basically within his expectations.

That token was actually a relic of the True Lord, something Wang Sheng had been astonished to learn from Wang Fan. This was the key reason he dared to take action.

Since I'm confident about it, why should I put up with his nonsense?

On the third day after Zhang Yang's death,

When Wang Sheng returned to the No. 15 residence in the evening

The candles in the other two rooms, which had been lit, went out instantly.

The people in the room remained motionless, not daring to utter a sound.

"Isolate me?"

Wang Sheng chuckled softly in the courtyard, and only after hearing the person inside almost stop breathing in fright did he step into the room.
