Chapter 449: Rescuing Tang Baisheng, Arrival of the Perfected Lord (2)

Upon hearing that, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were not particularly worried.
Although Chongxuan Sect was a big Nascent Soul sect, the number of Nascent Soul cultivators within the sect was not high.
As far as they knew, there were only three Perfected Lords in the sect, and all of them were at the early stage.
Although they were unsure about the grade of their Nascent Souls, they believed it wouldn’t be too high, at most blacks.
Facing such opponents, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan were not too worried.
Therefore, the couple reassured Tang Baisheng, indicating that he didn’t need
to worry too much.
Tang Baisheng, being a perceptive person, understood from their words and reactions that the couple wasn’t particularly concerned about Chongxuan Sect.
With this, Tang Baisheng was more at ease.
The three of them continued to explore the Sky Plains for possible opportunities.
However, with one wisp of Origin Qj and one Earth Qi in possession of Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, finding additional opportunities seemed unlikely.
Unless Jiang Chengxuan consumed the Providence Pill, which didn’t seem cost-effective, they decided not to insist on searching further
When Tang Baisheng saw their reaction, he was a little shocked at first, but he quickly regained his senses.
Could it be that the two of them had already found what they wanted before this?
Just like that, time passed.
It was time for the connection between heaven and earth to end.
Therefore, Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Tang Baisheng didn’t stay in the Sky Plains any longer.
They flew away from the Sky Plains almost immediately.
A few days after they left the Sky Plains, numerous majestic figures descended on the area.
These were cultivators of Nascent Soul Perfected Lords from various major sects, aiming to escort their disciples back to their sects.
At this moment.
Among the Nascent Soul cultivators, a middle-aged Perfected Lord in black Daoist robe spoke with a cold expression,
“Fellow cultivators, does anyone know why the three elders from my Chongxuan Sect fell?”
This person was one of the three Nascent Soul Perfected Lords from Chongxuan Sect, named Huang Hai Perfected Lord.
Several days ago, he had received reports from his sect’s disciples that the Soul Tablets of Chong Lingzi and others had shattered.
His purpose in coming here was to find out the reason behind the deaths of the three elders.
If their deaths were accidental, that was one thing. However, if there was foul play involved, he intended to investigate and hold the responsible party accountable.
Although the rules stated that no one could intervene during the struggle for the Origin Qi, and no one could inquire about the events that occurred, Nascent Soul Perfected Lords still had their own ways of dealing with things.
If they could find out who was behind the incidents, they wouldn’t hesitate to bend the rules a bit.
Seeing that no one answered his question, Perfected Lord Huang Hai’s brows furrowed slightly.
He raised his hand, and a curved, ice-blue treasure appeared.
He continued, “This treasure is called the Ice Orchid Soul Seizing Hook. It’s a high-grade Level 4 Dharma treasure. It has an extraordinary effect on soul attacks.
“I’ll ask once again. Does anyone know how the three elders from my Chongxuan Sect died? If someone can provide me with the answer, this treasure will be yours.”
His words instantly brightened the eyes of many cultivators present.
For most cultivators at the ninth-level of the Golden Core or False Nascent Soul, the hope of condensing a Nascent Soul was not high.
There, seeking a more powerful treasure or divine power was necessary.
Without a doubt, the Ice Orchid Soul Seizing Hook that Perfected Lord Huang Hai took out was a Dharma treasure that could increase their strength.
However, regretfully, most cultivators were not aware of the deaths of the three elders from Chongxuan Sect.
However, there were a few who saw the square-faced and green-robed male cultivator being killed that day.
Originally, they didn’t want to get involved.
After all, it had nothing to do with them.
However, the situation was clearly different now.
The other party took out something that tempted them and they could not refuse.
Therefore, in the next moment, a yellow-haired male cultivator spoke. “Senior, on that day, at the Sky Plains, I saw Daoist Yuanhao and Wu Chenzi fall at the hands of Jiang Chengxuan and his wife. As for Chong Lingzi, I’m not particularly clear about the circumstances of his death.”
“Huh? Jiang Chengxuan and his wife?”
Obviously, Perfected Lord Huang Hai was not familiar with Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan. The cultivator who provided the information briefly recounted the couple’s background.
In fact, he didn’t know much about Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan either.
He only told Perfected Lord Huang Hai what he knew.
Perfected Lord Huang Hai nodded after hearing the information. “This is enough. With this information, I have a rough understanding of what happened.”
Saying that, he threw the Ice Orchid Soul Seizing Hook to the cultivator who provided the information.
This scene made many cultivators envious.
Especially those who also knew about the deaths of Wu Chenzi and the others but were a step slower to speak up. Their coveted treasure was now taken.
At the same time.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, and Tang Baisheng were currently on their way to a place called the state of Wuhua, which was the nearest large state to the Sky Plains.
They planned to use the teleportation array in the state of Wuhua to travel to other major states. As long as they transferred through a few states, their journey should proceed without major issues.
Even if Chongxuan Sect eventually found out that their elders died in their hands, they wouldn’t be able to track them down in such a vast northern border.
Unfortunately, Chongxuan Sect was not the only sect that had designs on them.
A few days after they entered the state of Wuhua, an old and a young figure suddenly appeared, blocking their path.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan recognized them at a glance.
The old one was a true Nascent Soul cultivator, and the young one was the person who had witnessed the couple killing Chongxuan Sect’s disciples However, the couple knew that the reason these two were blocking their way was not to avenge Wu Chenzi or the others. Instead, it was because they had their eyes on the Origin Qi they had obtained..
