Chapter 854: Clash with Dao Integration Saints
Editor: Henyee Translations
The mere thought of this issue was unsettling, but delving deeper into its implications made everyone’s expression grow grim.
It was known that only the upper echelons of the Righteous Path Alliance were privy to Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s whereabouts.
This implied a disturbing possibility: someone within their ranks had leaked
this critical information to the demonic cultivators.
Such a breach touched upon fundamental principles and loyalties.
If the traitor were found, even if they were Dao Integration Saints, they would likely find no refuge within the alliance any longer.
However, identifying the mole who leaked Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s information to the enemy would not be straightforward.
Suspects could include anyone, especially from forces like the Five Elements Heavenly Sect and the Eternal Sword Sect, who have had a history of animosity with the Haoran Sect and Thunder Valley, or even the Qiankun Hall, with whom they’ve had past conflicts.
But suspicion alone was insufficient.
Concrete evidence was needed to prove someone s guilt.
Typically, anyone capable of leaking such information would be at least a Void Returning Divine Lord, a high-ranking position within any sect.
Unless it was absolutely necessary, no sect would easily give up on such a cultivator.
The most pressing concern now was the potential for further leaks. If the enemy had obtained Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s details, what stopped them from acquiring and leaking more, posing even greater risks to the alliance?
Such a scenario would undoubtedly be a massive blow to the entire Righteous
Path Alliance.
“I need to report this to the alliance,” said Leng Yuehua, her gaze returning to
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
“As for you two, stay within Celestial Heir City for now.
As long as you remain here, even if your whereabouts are known, it should not pose a direct threat.”
Hearing Leng Yuehua’s words, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan shared a glance, pondering briefly before Jiang Chengxuan spoke up,
“Martial Aunt Leng, my wife and I believe we might be able to handle this situation ourselves.”
“Huh… ?”
Leng Yuehua and everyone present were taken aback.
Jiang Chengxuan continued, “I am confident that together with my wife, we
can return unharmed.
Even if we encounter a Dao Integration Saint, we believe we have the strength to make it back to Celestial Heir City.
Most importantly, we aim to extract from these demonic cultivators the identity of the informant.”
After hearing this, Leng Yuehua and everyone present could not help but hesitate.
While they would typically oppose such a risky venture, the potential to identify the traitor made them reconsider.
“This matter requires consultation with your sect and your Shifu.
If they also agree with your decision, then we shall proceed as you’ve proposed,” Leng Yuehua concluded, disappearing from the scene.
When she reappeared about fifteen minutes later, all eyes immediately turned towards her.
However, Leng Yuehua’s gaze settled on Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
She slowly said, “Your Shifu basically agrees with your decision.
Given that, we shall proceed as you’ve suggested.
Remember, above all, your safety is the utmost priority.”
“Yes, Martial Aunt Leng.”
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan immediately accepted the order.
At the same time, Leng Yuehua also turned to look at the others present.
“To ensure the confidentiality of this mission, I ask that everyone here stay with me until Martial Nephew Jiang and Martial Niece Shen return.
Hearing Leng Yuehua’s words, a shiver ran through the crowd, indicating that apart from a few trusted individuals, Leng Yuehua did not fully trust the rest.
Although Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan felt this measure might not be necessary, they naturally wouldn’t voice any objections.
After bidding farewell to Leng Yuehua and the others, they promptly left Celestial Heir City, heading towards Brightlight City.
Outside Brightlight City.
Saint Dead Soul and the other two suddenly noticed unusual fluctuations in the void.
Their gaze instantly shifted in unison towards the source of these disturbances.
In the next second, their eyes simultaneously narrowed, faces lighting up with excitement.
They recognized that the newcomers, the source of the disturbance, were none other than Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
“Hehe, it seems this time we really can eliminate those two potential threats.
After dealing with them, when we return to our alliance leader, I’m sure he will reward us handsomely,” Saint Heaven Breaker couldn’t help but say with a smile.
Saint Dead Soul and Saint Black Lotus nodded in agreement.
“In that case, we shouldn’t delay. Let’s take them down now.”
“Sure!”
With that, the three no longer concealed their presence, and waves of energy surged through the void.
The next moment, as Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were flying through the air, they suddenly encountered three terrifying figures appearing before them.
“Mm?
It’s Saint Dead Soul from the Ghost Hall, Saint Heaven Breaker from Joyous Union Valley, and Saint Black Lotus from the Sacred Skeleton Sect!” Just a glance was enough for Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan to recognize the identities of the three figures before them.
Without wasting any words, the three launched their divine powers.
BOOM!
Instantly, the sky shattered, and endless death energy spanned across the heavens.
A huge black lotus that could obscure the sun slowly rose under the feet of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
If ordinary Seethrough cultivators were suddenly attacked by three Dao Integration Saints, they would have no chance of survival and would undoubtedly perish on the spot, likely without even a moment to react.
However, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were no ordinary Seethrough cultivators.
The moment they were attacked by Saint Dead Soul and his companions, both of them swiftly expanded their domains.
At the same time.
Shen Ruyan instantly entered the state of her Thunder Spirit True Body, with endless lightning converging upon her.
Rumble!
The sky instantly lit up with countless flashes of lightning.
At the same time.
Jiang Chengxuan deployed his rule-based divine power, the Five Elements Annihilation Divine Light.
An aureola displaying green, red, yellow, white, and blue hues instantaneously enveloped him and Shen Ruyan, protecting them from the onslaught..
