Chapter 2460: Chapter 2461: Sowing Discord

Let’s talk about Zhou Lie’s side.

After Supreme Mystic Heaven and Supreme Earth learned of this matter, they were both furious, as these people had long been like brothers, never expecting Zheng He to die an untimely death, leaving them ahead of schedule.

Supreme Mystic Heaven was the first to go to Zheng He’s location.

When Supreme Mystic Heaven initially took action, he held a glimmer of hope; perhaps it was just misinformation, and Zheng He was still alive and well. But at the moment Supreme Mystic Heaven saw the government corpse, all hope vanished into thin air.

Supreme Mystic Heaven, experienced in countless battles, remained unflinching even as Mount Tai collapsed, maintaining a calm and composed demeanor, never having lost composure in front of others.

But facing today’s situation, he couldn’t bear it and wept uncontrollably, feeling desperate.

Seeing Supreme Mystic Heaven weeping uncontrollably, the disciples nearby all similarly showed great sorrow, as Zheng He was akin to a deity in their eyes.

"What on earth happened? Who did this?"

In his heart, Zhou Lie was naturally delighted, but he did not fully express his joy. He wiped the tears from his eyes, then stepped forward.

"Our master was righteous and charitable, enjoying great popularity here. But recently, a brat arrived, arrogant and disdainful, provoking others everywhere, and in his battle with our master, he killed him by carelessness."

Zhou Lie, now the Sect Leader of Qinglan Sect, spoke decisively without opposition. Though the truth was somewhat different, the surrounding disciples remained silent, choosing not to speak.

Supreme Mystic Heaven knew Zheng He’s skills inside out and was surprised. Never did he expect someone of such great ability to be killed by a young man.

This was indeed surprising.

"What did you say? A young man killed him? Are you sure it wasn’t one of the top masters who have long disappeared from the martial world?"

After years of training, whether in wisdom or skills, one is among the best. Even if a fledgling young hero is extraordinarily gifted, you can’t possibly defeat him.

Zhou Lie wiped the tears from his eyes and sighed.

"I know you don’t want to believe it. Honestly, I couldn’t accept it at first, but this guy is too terrifyingly powerful. My master truthfully wasn’t his opponent."

Supreme Mystic Heaven stroked his beard, trying to control his grief, then looked at Zhou Lie.

"Now tell me, who is this person? I don’t believe that I and Emperor Supreme together can’t defeat him."

The strength and abilities of the three Supremes were about equal and hard to distinguish. Since Zheng He alone was not the match for the young man, Supreme Mystic Heaven was not presumptuous enough to think he could defeat Lin Chen alone.

The only surefire method now was to ally with Supreme Earth.

Zhou Lie understood the weight of these words. At first, he feared the person before him might be too timid to act, but now he found his previous fears unfounded.

"If that’s the case, it couldn’t be better. My master’s spirit would certainly be gratified."

At this time, the ground began to shake violently, and everyone turned to look outside the door, their eyes filled with excitement.

Most experts are unmoving as mountains, moving like the wind, but Supreme Earth is the opposite, moving like Mount Tai, still like the wind. Whether moving or not, he’s extraordinarily unique; when he walks, the ground shakes violently.

Watching Supreme Earth approach, many people prostrated on the ground. Despite his short, slim stature, the powerful force in his legs was astonishing and terrifying.

Supreme Earth leaned toward rationality, and seeing Zheng He lying on the bed, his heart was filled with anger. He clenched his fist tightly, smashing the adjacent stone statue.

"I really didn’t expect this to happen," Supreme Mystic Heaven roared.

"Whoever did this dared to hurt him?"

Supreme Earth, despite his indifferent demeanor to everything, was calmly unaffected on the surface, even if his emotions were turbulent inside.

"A mere teenage boy did it."

Supreme Earth stroked his chin, frowned slightly, and was inwardly shocked. For a teenager to take down Zheng He, whose skills were deeply honed, indeed, how terrifying must this guy be?

"What did you say? A teenager did it."

"Indeed, it was someone we’d never heard of before."

After hearing this, Supreme Earth clenched his fist and smashed it onto the table, shattering it into pieces.

"This guy truly doesn’t know what’s good for him, daring to kill him. Now, where exactly is he? We should avenge him quickly," Supreme Earth’s true face was revealed.

"Reporting to the two seniors, that brat is now in a thatched cottage below the mountain."

"In that case, let’s not hesitate any longer, quickly set off, and take that brat down."

Supreme Mystic Heaven’s words stirred up passion, and everyone responded in unison, eager to try, resolving to take him down.

"Alright, let’s follow your lead, quickly set off, and take down this guy."

At first, Zhou Lie was worried that his plan might have flaws, but now it seems these two weren’t as clever as he’d imagined.

Resolving this problem isn’t too complicated.

"In that case, let’s hurry up and not hesitate any longer."

After finishing the sentence, everyone quickly turned around with their weapons and set off toward the thatched cottage below the mountain.

Though Zhou Lie now wished to use the Heavenly Stone to enhance his abilities, he knew he couldn’t rush matters, or he’d only risk exposing his identity.

Moreover, he had a more sinister plan to execute, which, once achieved, would leave many speechless.
