Chapter 483 - Six Hours

With a roar that echoed throughout the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion, Liu Wuxie vanished and charged into the depths of the sect like a meteor.

The commotion he caused alarmed many people, including some elders, because the roar was filled with murderous intent. The intent was so strong that it could rip through the sky and pierce the heavens.

Elder Tian Xing was busy with his official duties when he heard Liu Wuxie’s roar, and his actions halted in anticipation. "It\'s his aura!" Elder Tian Xing was a cultivator in the Nascent Transformation Realm and immediately recognized Liu Wuxie’s aura.

"Hall Master, someone has set fire in the inner sect. Should we send someone from the Law-Enforcement Hall?" A Law-Enforcement Hall\'s disciple came in to seek instructions from Elder Tian Xing.

"That won’t be necessary. Order all the Law-Enforcement Hall\'s disciples to leave that region and not approach for the next six hours," Elder Tian Xing ordered.

“Roger that!” The disciple swiftly departed to relay Elder Tian Xing’s order to all the nearby Law-Enforcement Hall disciples, instructing them to vacate the area.

“Kid, I’ll give you six hours. Create as much chaos as you want. I’ll back you up, even if you tear the sky apart!” Elder Tian Xing said, a dangerous glint in his eyes.

While others weren’t aware of Qing Mu’s search for Yi Xuan, Tian Xing knew about it. After that day, he had found Yi Xuan, and they had a lengthy discussion.

Divine senses began to converge from various regions in the sect, wanting to know what was happening. However, no one intervened because Liu Wuxie\'s situation involved too many people.

It was already well known throughout the sect that Elder Tian Xing was protecting Liu Wuxie while Qing Mu wanted to eliminate him. Most elders ignored this, not taking any stance to avoid offending either side.

After all, who could win didn\'t matter to them.

Upon hearing the roar, Song Ling froze in place, Lan Yu suddenly went down on his knees, Bi Gongyu burst into tears, Fan Zhen stopped coughing, and tears rolled silently down the two ladies\' cheeks.

Song Ling collapsed to the ground, the last bit of strength he had been clinging to evaporating. He felt a surge of weakness, knowing that someone had returned.

There was also a faint dragon\'s roar mixed in that roar that spread out to tens of thousands of miles in radius like a soundwave, causing trees to shake under the vibration.

The battle came to a standstill, with everyone turning to look at where the roar came from. They saw a white meteorite descending from the sky while the fire was still raging and would soon burn down Liu Wuxie\'s courtyard.

"Symphony of Water!" A waterfall descended from the sky, and this was a move Liu Wuxie had comprehended after grasping the water element.

The fire was instantly extinguished. The house was partially burned down and no longer habitable.

Liu Wuxie\'s imposing figure landed in the battlefield\'s center with a terrifyingly grim face. The murderous intent he gave out swept over everyone and made them tremble involuntarily.

When his gaze fell onto Song Ling and others, his murderous intent surged, which made him look like a demon god. He stood there and said nothing, but this only made his murderous intent almost uncontrollable.

No words were needed as Liu Wuxie\'s gaze fell onto the ten-odd disciples who had set fire to his courtyard. After sensing Liu Wuxie\'s murderous intent, the Heretic Blade flew by itself and hovered in the sky, pointing at the ten-odd disciples.

Everyone who saw Liu Wuxie trembled in fear, unprepared for his return. A few were so terrified that their legs gave way, causing them to collapse to the ground. The overwhelming murderous intent felt like a mountain crushing down on them.

"I-It\'s Liu Wuxie! H-H-He\'s not dead!" The faces of the disciples in the surroundings became pale with fear. After all, Liu Wuxie\'s reputation was well-known in the sect for killing disciples.

"Quick, go and notify the Law-Enforcement Hall! He\'s going to start another massacre!" Each of Liu Wuxie\'s returns was accompanied by a massacre, with many disciples losing their lives because of him. But for some reason, the nearby Law-Enforcement Hall\'s disciples had disappeared, and even the Law-Enforcement Hall was tightly shut.

The elders also remained silent, placing the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion in chaos.

"Die!" Liu Wuxie finally said something, but the Heretic Blade had flown out before the word \'die\' left his lips. Heads began to fly in the next moment, and the ten-odd disciples who were involved in starting the fire in the courtyard were all beheaded without exception.

Liu Wuxie killed the ten-odd inner disciples in one strike. There was no need for any more words as a massacre unfolded.

After all, these clowns had eagerly jumped at the chance to act when they thought he had died on Blood Sea Abyssal Island. They deserved to die.

“Open your mouths!” Liu Wuxie commanded, his voice cold. Though he preferred not to speak, he had to, as his murderous intent was still building. If not released, it could lead to inner demons.

Fan Zhen and others opened their mouths instinctively as pills flew into their mouths.

Liu Wuxie then began forming seals and drew a massive amount of wood-attribute energy from the mysterious tree. The wood element, known for its healing properties, helped them recover quickly from their physical injuries.

Fan Zhen\'s and others\' injuries healed in just ten breaths, but they needed some time to recover fully.

"Speak, who tried to kill you guys?" Liu Wuxie\'s facial expression was stiff, and he tried to speak as naturally as possible.

“Shao Wenliang, Geng Mochou, Hou Xiao...” Song Ling stood up and listed more than a dozen names.

Some names were familiar to Liu Wuxie, while others were utterly unknown. He didn\'t even know when he might\'ve offended them, but that no longer mattered because everyone on this list had to die.

“Who knows where these people are? Show me the way, and you can have this high-grade spirit stone.” Liu Wuxie held up the high-grade spirit stone, acknowledging that he had no time to track down the disciples himself.

There were many inner disciples, and he recognized very few of them. Even so, many old disciples present better understood the other inner disciples than he did.

"I know!" Someone immediately stepped forward because they were talking about a high-grade spirit stone, and it was enough to drive anyone insane.

"Good, lead the way!" Liu Wuxie threw the high-grade spirit stone over without any expression on his face. Fan Zhen didn\'t stop Liu Wuxie this time because he could see the crimson hue in the latter\'s eyes. If Liu Wuxie didn\'t kill them, the built-up rage could give birth to an inner demon in his heart.

"Follow me if all of you can still walk. I\'ll kill them!" Liu Wuxie\'s gaze fell onto Fan Zhen and others, asking them to tag along.

"We can!" Everyone said in unison. They would only die in the worst-case scenario, and they had already come to terms with death through this incident.

They followed the guide to their first target. The inner sect was relatively small, and they soon arrived at Shao Wenliang’s courtyard, where a crowd of several thousand had gathered.

Shao Wenliang and Geng Mochou were playing chess and weren\'t surprised by Liu Wuxie\'s death. After all, the Blood Sea Abyssal Island had a low survival rate.

"That kid\'s family and friends must be dead now!" Geng Mochou put down a chess piece and lost interest. He walked to the side and fell into deep thought.

"They should have perished in the fire by now," Shao Wenliang said with a hint of a sinister look on his face.

After all, it was despicable for them to use such means to kill those close to Liu Wuxie, but they would use any means necessary as long as they could achieve their goals.

"It has been three months, and we\'re still stuck in the Quasi-Heavenly Phase Realm. We\'re one step away from the Heavenly Phase Realm, but we can\'t take that final step no matter how we try," Geng Mochou was in a foul mood.

They should have reached the Heavenly Phase Realm by now, given the stalactite essence they had obtained. Yet, after all this time, their cultivation had only advanced to the Quasi-Heavenly Phase Realm, still one step short of the Heavenly Phase Realm.

“It won’t be long now. I can reach the Heavenly Phase Realm in ten days at most!” Shao Wenliang said with a glint of excitement in his eyes. Achieving the Heavenly Phase Realm would elevate him to elite disciple status, granting him access to resources far beyond those available to inner disciples.

"What\'s the noise outside?" Geng Mochou frowned. Loud sounds were coming from outside, and many people were approaching.

It was unprecedented in the Heavenly Treasure Pavilion for thousands of people to gather this way outside someone\'s courtyard.

Just when Shao Wenliang and Geng Mochou were about to open the gate, it was smashed apart with a kick, and countless fragments stabbed them like arrows.

Shao Wenliang and Geng Mochou had no time to react because a group had already entered through the gate.

"Senior Brother Liu, this is Geng Mochou and Shao Wenliang\'s courtyard." The disciple who had taken the high-grade spirit stone from Liu Wuxie bowed and signaled that the latter could go in.

Liu Wuxie walked in with steady, determined steps, accompanied by Song Ling and the others. Behind them trailed a large crowd of over a thousand people, who kept their distance out of fear of provoking Liu Wuxie.

The sudden disappearance of the Law-Enforcement Hall’s disciples had raised suspicions. Elder Tian Xing’s actions were intentional, allowing Liu Wuxie to act freely. It was clear that Liu Wuxie needed to release the anger he had been holding back.

“L-Liu Wuxie, you’re not dead?!” Shao Wenliang stammered, stunned by Liu Wuxie’s presence. His voice faltered as he spoke. Geng Mochou, trembling in fear, recalled Liu Wuxie’s terrifying strength.

Three months ago, Liu Wuxie had effortlessly defeated Ma Shiyan and his group, who were only slightly stronger than Shao Wenliang and Geng Mochou. They knew that in the past three months, they weren’t the only ones who had grown stronger.

“This is impossible! All the humans on Blood Sea Abyssal Island have perished—there’s no way Liu Wuxie survived!” Geng Mochou shouted, his voice filled with disbelief as he shook his head, unable to accept the reality.

Wood splinters had covered Shao Wenliang and Geng Mochou, staining them with blood. While the splinters caused significant pain, they were not life-threatening.

"You two tried to kill me on the Scarlet Sun Mountain Range three months ago, and it\'s time for us to settle the feud between us. Let\'s put an end to it today!" Liu Wuxie couldn\'t be bothered to waste time talking to them, not to mention they had already formed a feud in the Scarlet Sun Mountain Range.

His strength was limited then, and he didn\'t dare to act recklessly, which was why they could live for a few more months. It was time for him to resolve this feud, and it was time for their death.

“What a joke! You think you can kill us with the help of trash like them?” Shao Wenliang snapped, shaking off his initial shock.

Though Liu Wuxie’s sudden appearance surprised him, it was not out of fear. The shock came from the fact that someone he believed to be dead had appeared right before him.
