Now that you have betrayed the sect, who will still pamper you?.

Chapter 1389 Fellow Daoist Yun, why aren't you calling me Junior Brother anymore?

A moment later, after the demon king's corpse had been completely collected by the precious pearl, Zhuang Heng finally came to his senses. Suppressing his fear, he cautiously transmitted his voice, asking:

"Fellow Daoist Yun, is this senior the one you mentioned...?"

He paused, not daring to utter the words "junior brother" aloud, and lowered his voice to ask:

"But is it someone you know?"

"Here……"

Yun Fengzhu was distraught, staring blankly at the familiar figure. Her heart was in turmoil, and she opened her mouth but couldn't utter a single complete sentence.

He hadn't expected that he had underestimated Jiang Han.

It's only been a little over ten days since they entered the Celestial Palace, and it's not even a month, right?

Normally, such a short time is not even enough to stabilize one's realm, and one must be extremely careful when engaging in combat, for fear of damaging one's foundation and falling back into a lower realm.

But who would have thought that Jiang Han didn't need to stabilize his realm at all?

He broke through once and again without even taking a breath. To this day, his strength has completely surpassed his.

No, does Jiang Han think cultivation is just about eating and drinking?

Doesn't he face any bottlenecks?

Does he not need to comprehend the laws?

Doesn't he need to cultivate his Dao heart and stabilize his realm?

Doesn't he need to collect rare and precious herbs and elixirs, calm his mind, and then find a quiet room to slowly break through the barrier?

why?

Why can he break through anytime, anywhere?

Why is this!

What a freakish monster! He's not even human!

Yun Fengzhu felt like he was going crazy.

Just before entering this place, he watched as Jiang Han broke through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, his aura surging and shaking the heavens and earth.

At the time, he thought that the other party would not make any further breakthroughs before leaving this place of inheritance.

At that time, he felt much more at ease, thinking that the other party's strength had not surpassed his, and at least he didn't have to worry about Jiang Han snatching away the Immortal Emperor's inheritance this time.

But who would have thought that he'd only been here a few days, and he'd been so busy he barely had time to breathe, and had only just entered the second floor.

He hadn't even done anything since he came in, hadn't even figured out the situation, when Jiang Han actually broke through again and even killed a demon king!

"Fellow Daoist Yun..."

Zhuang Heng, seeing the changing expressions on Yun Fengzhu's face, already understood what was going on.

It seems there's no need to ask anymore; this senior sword cultivator is indeed Fellow Daoist Yun's junior brother.

Good heavens, is this the junior brother who is said to be invincible among his peers?

I thought it was just a title that outside sects were ignorant of and just said casually, but I never expected it to be true!

Not only was he invincible among his peers in a certain sect outside, but this senior was also invincible among his peers in this inheritance land. He was even so powerful that he could kill even a demon king-level expert!

"I have been trapped in this place for many years without leaving, but I never expected that such a monstrous genius would emerge in the world."

Zhuang Heng sighed, then his eyes lit up with a sharp light.

This senior swordsman's talent and strength are definitely the most powerful among all the people he has seen over the years.

Does their arrival mean that their chance to escape is about to arrive?

These humans and demons from various great worlds have been trapped here for a long time, and have never been able to obtain that inheritance.

But now that we have this senior, perhaps he can obtain that inheritance?!

If this senior can obtain the inheritance of this place, he can help them break free from the control of the Celestial Palace and regain their freedom!

Thinking of this, Zhuang Heng was so excited that his heart was trembling.

If only I could go back...

Just then, a sigh suddenly sounded beside me.

"Sigh... never mind."

Yun Fengzhu sighed and slowly closed his eyes. When he opened them again, he had regained his previous gentle demeanor.

"Let's go, let's go there."

Without waiting for their response, he waved his hand, tearing open the secret magic around him, revealing his figure, and then took a step forward.

Seeing this, Zhuang Heng snapped out of his daze, calmed himself down, and patted his still-stunned junior brother Xu on the shoulder:

"Don't be rude, let's go and pay our respects to the senior."

Having said that, he straightened his clothes and quickly chased after him.

When Junior Brother Xu realized what was happening, he swallowed hard. He instinctively wanted to get away from the demonic cultivator, but he didn't dare to make any rash moves and could only grit his teeth and follow.

To be honest, he wouldn't be afraid of a righteous sword cultivator at all.

But the bloodthirsty aura emanating from this senior was far too intense, almost staining half the sky red. Even from hundreds of miles away, it made his scalp tingle and his body go cold, and he didn't dare to look at him for long.

It's just that Senior Brother Zhuang couldn't see it, otherwise he definitely wouldn't have dared to go over like that.

……

"I never expected to run into an old friend in such a dangerous place."

Before he even arrived, Yun Fengzhu called out, "It's been a long time. Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Jiang, on your further progress in cultivation."

As he finished speaking, he appeared not far from Jiang Han and bowed respectfully.

At the same time, Zhuang Heng and Junior Brother Xu caught up and stood beside Yun Fengzhu, bowing and saying, "Greetings, Senior."

"Fellow Daoist Yun."

Jiang Han politely returned the greeting, then looked at the two men, nodded in return, and asked, "And who are these two?"

Yun Fengzhu pointed to the two and introduced them: "This is Fellow Daoist Zhuang Heng, and this is Fellow Daoist Xu Wenzhou. Both of you are cultivators from Wanjie City. I was a newcomer here and met you by chance. I have been well taken care of by you two these past few days."

After saying that, he introduced the two of them: "This is Fellow Daoist Jiang Han, who is my fellow Daoist who is entering the Immortal Palace with me this time."

"So it's Senior Jiang."

As they spoke, Zhuang Heng and Xu Wenzhou bowed in succession to identify themselves, displaying great respect.

They wouldn't dare call him "fellow Daoist," but calling him "senior" would be much better.

However, Zhuang Heng couldn't help but have doubts.

Didn't they say this person was his junior brother before? How come he's a fellow Daoist now?

Could it be that they're too afraid to call this senior brother because he's so powerful?

Not so much...

He glanced at the two of them discreetly, then coughed lightly, trying to calm his anxious heart, and asked with a smile:

"Please allow me to ask, senior, is the corpse you just collected the corpse of the Mountain-Shaking Demon King?"

“Not bad,” Jiang Han replied casually.

It's nothing shameful, and he had no intention of hiding it.

"Hiss—it really is the corpse of the Mountain-Shaking Demon King!"

Zhuang Heng exclaimed in exaggerated surprise, which, while somewhat exaggerated, was also quite genuinely shocking.

Until just now, he still couldn't quite believe it. Only now, with the other party admitting it in person, did he finally realize that it was all real and not an illusion.

That ferocious and ruthless Mountain-Shaking Demon King is really dead!

At this moment, Jiang Han said, "However, only its physical body was left, while its primordial spirit escaped."

"That's pretty awesome!"

Xu Wenzhou clenched his fist and exclaimed excitedly, but was quickly caught off guard by a glare from Zhuang Heng. He immediately realized what was happening, awkwardly loosened his fist, and obediently stood aside with his head down.

Wanjie City is closest to the territory of the Demon King of Hanshan. Over the years, it has suffered a lot of persecution from the Demon King, and countless fellow cultivators have died at his hands.

Now that the Demon King is dead, even if it's just his physical body, it's like removing the mountain that's been pressing down on everyone's heads, allowing them to finally breathe a little easier.

"Gentlemen, this place is, after all, the heartland of the demon race. Once the commotion spreads, other demon cultivators will surely gather here. It is not a place to linger and talk. We should head to Wanjie City first and then discuss other matters."

A look of worry appeared on Zhuang Heng's face:

"With such a big incident, the other demon kings of the demon race will definitely not let this go. Once the news spreads, they may join forces to take revenge. We need to make preparations as soon as possible."
