Chapter 863: Bloody Revenge

“Who is it?” Yue Zhuoran asked curiously.Blazing Flame Grand Venerable replied, “Li Xiaofei isn’t the only one who walked out of the Forbidden Zone alive. Chu Xiang was one of them as well, wasn’t she?”

Yue Zhuoran’s heart trembled, We are on Chu Family territory, and he wants to target someone from the Chu Family?

It was well known that the current family head, Chu Zhongtian, doted on his granddaughter. Though she couldn’t inherit the position of patriarch, she was granted nearly everything else she desired.

Making a move on Chu Xiang... would the Yue Family even approve of this?

“Lost your nerve already?” Blazing Flame Grand Venerable sneered. “Don’t be afraid. As long as it’s done discreetly, the Chu Family won’t be able to pin anything on us. When the time comes, they won’t dare go to war over it. Heh... I want nothing more than to see that old bastard Chu Zhongtian consumed with grief and fury.”

His tone brimmed with vicious malice. Yue Zhuoran couldn’t help but feel a chill run down his spine. Their group returned to the Revered Protectors Corps’s quarters.

After a round of discussion, they began to take covert action. Within just a few hours, all of Chu Planet had fully entered a state of emergency. The skies were filled with the roar of flying vessels and wailing alarms. Enraged, the Chu Family made no effort to conceal their power, fully displaying their formidable strength.

The elite members of the Revered Protectors Corps were also divided into teams and dispatched to patrol various regions. Even though Chu Planet was vast, it would not take cultivators at the Three Origin Realm, Four Extremes Realm, and Five Dragons Realm long to conduct a full sweep.

Anyone who appeared even remotely suspicious was to be apprehended and subjected to strict interrogation. In less than half a day, thousands had already been thrown into the Chu Family's prisons.

At first, Yue Zhuoran remained fairly composed. But soon, his expression began to change. Some of those arrested by the Chu Family were spies planted by the Yue Family on Chu Planet, as well as individuals who had secretly been working to turn key personnel against the Chu Family.

They were using this chaos as an excuse to eliminate hidden threats. Still, Yue Zhuoran wasn't overly distressed. After all, they were expendable. Though they had been uprooted, replacements could be arranged later. The Yue Family could bear the loss.

Meanwhile, Blazing Flame Grand Venerable began to make his move. He left Mulin Base City openly with his men, moving hastily as if he had discovered something important. The scene naturally attracted the attention of many Chu Family scouts.

However, by midday, the group returned empty-handed. Blazing Flame Grand Venerable wasn’t the least bit flustered. The entire Revered Protectors Corps put on a show of diligence, acting as though they wouldn’t rest until Li Xiaofei was captured.

But trouble struck on the second day. A Four Extremes Realm cultivator named Liu Xianglin, a member of the Revered Protectors Corps, was slain by a lakeside over three thousand kilometers southeast of Mulin Base City.

Judging from the traces left at the scene, the killer was determined to be none other than Li Xiaofei. He had left behind another message.

When the Chu Family experts and Blazing Flame Grand Venerable rushed to the scene and saw the five blood-drenched words carved into a lakeside rock—The killer is Li Xiaofei—their expressions turned grim. This madman actually dared to strike again.

“Revered Liu was ambushed and caught completely off guard. He suffered a fatal blow.”

“Before he died, he was also subjected to interrogation. That madman was clearly trying to extract more information about our operations.”

“He was killed by having his life force ignited and drained away.”

“This Li Xiaofei truly is a demonic agent from Eden. His methods are utterly vile.”

After examining the scene, the group grew even more enraged. But soon, another message arrived. Over five hundred kilometers from their current location, a Chu Family expert had been found dead in a mountain valley. He had been accompanied by four companions, who were also all slain.

or die without mercy.

This was the bloody message Li Xiaofei had left at the scene. It was outrageously arrogant. More than that, it was a direct provocation against the Revered Protectors Corps.

A cold sneer spread across Blazing Flame Grand Venerable’s face as he said, “A cornered dog will leap over a wall. He’s getting desperate. He’s even revealed a new trump card.

“Someone, analyze this poison immediately. Formulate an antidote and distribute it at once... This madman’s end is near.”
