YM778.TV Chapter 415 Being Targeted
“Auntie....”
On the fourth floor of The Tien Nan trade association, a soft voice sounded. She was a girl with a smashing figure: Tien Ying, and the person she was talking to was her aunt, Tien Lan.
Tien Lan’s eyebrows had knitted tightly right now. The news of the eight deaths had reached her.
At first, she had been shocked and in disbelief. However, after she sent someone out to confirm the news, it turned out to be true. She could not help but believe it.
“Bai Chen...”
Tien Lan knew right away that the incident was related to Bai Chen. She sent her people out to check if he was still alive.
If not, then it might not be related to him, but if he was alive, of course, he would definitely be related to this. The eight people who’d died had followed Bai Chen out of town in order to kill him and steal the seal.
As Bai Chen had come back alive and the rest of them had died, it would definitely be impossible for it to not to be related to Bai Chen.
A while later, the men Tien Lan had sent out to conduct an investigation came back. Tien Lan listened to the results with a trembling body. Her eyebrows knitted tightly, as could be seen at the present time.
Tien Lan shook her head a little and turned to Tien Ying. “What is it?”
Tien Ying’s face did not look very good. “It is about the eight people who died. I think it’s related to that young man…”
She obviously did not know that Tien Lan had sent her men out to investigate Bai Chen.
“That’s absolutely possible. But this is none of our business. It’s best to do nothing,” Tien Lan said while thinking that someone powerful must be behind Bai Chen’s actions.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for him alone to take down eight earth solid cultivators—and there were seven at the secondary and one at the tertiary stage!
‘If he really has someone powerful backing him up, that someone should be at a sky soaring level at the least!’ Tien Lan thought and inhaled deeply. Sky soaring realm cultivators were extremely powerful in her eyes.
The reason why Tien Lan thought so was because it would be impossible for an earth solid realm cultivator to take down eight earth solid cultivators at the same time.
Tien Lan was actually good at guessing, but she was wrong. Bai Chen did not have anyone backing him up. He was alone.
“I…I understand.” Tien Ying’s voice trembled. She did not say anything again.
Seeing Tien Lan’s facial expression, she knew that she should not ask anything more. It would be best to wait for Tien Lan’s emotions to return to normal.
‘There must be chaos in town since the five authorities and the Dawn sect must be working every angle to search for Bai Chen.’
Tien Lan thought this. She believed that Bai Chen would be targeted very soon.
This was because there were people who had seen the eight people following Bai Chen out of town. It was impossible for investigators to not be able to track him down.
However, Tien Lan did not care about it since it was none of her business anyway.
.........................................................
In the southern part of Xin Ye city, six men in fiery red were walking furiously. Their faces were solemn.
One of them was an old man with red and white hair. The spirit qi that he emitted indicated that he was a tertiary earth solid cultivator!
The old man was not a normal person. He was the highest elder of the Blazing Flames sect. His strength was only second to the head of the sect.
He was quite furious about the incident, and that was why he’d decided to attend to this matter by himself. The highest elders did not usually do that.
“Have you gotten anything yet?” The highest elder shouted.
In front of him, a shadow jumped from a high place onto the ground. He was in fiery red. He knelt in front of the highest elder.
“Highest elder, I’ve come with news. The man with the most potential to be related to the incident is named Bai Chen. He was the man who won the seal of the ancient graveyard,” the man quickly reported.
“After he left the auction, Wang Jong, Wang Tao, Zi Tie, Song Heng, Lei Ba, Tien Wen, the third elder Foo Kong of the Dawn sect, as well as elder Hua lang, secretly followed him.”
The man stopped for a little before inhaling deeply. “Then, it’s like what you already know. They all died. Not a single one remains!”
Listening to the report, the highest elder’s face changed colour. He quickly asked a question.
“What is this Bai Chen’s level?”
“Only the tertiary formation level.” The reply made the highest elder’s facial expression change back and forth for a time.
The faces of the five people behind him were the same.
They were all earth solid cultivators at both the primary and secondary stages, with a lot of experience.
Hearing the man, they knew that this was suspicious. It was impossible for a tertiary formation cultivator to have the power to take down eight earth solid cultivators.
Someone had to be backing him up, and this someone had to be very powerful. This was what all of them were thinking right now.
“Wait, you said the seal of the ancient graveyard?!?” The highest elder suddenly shouted. It seemed like he had not paid much attention earlier and had just realised this now.
“The seal of the ancient graveyard!” All of their faces changed colour. Their breathing seemed to have been cut short for a second.
“Yes, it’s the seal of the ancient graveyard. People of the Tien Nan trade association and the attendees confirmed that!” The man reporting said with a firm voice.
“No wonder. Hua Lang and the rest must have followed him for it and ended up dead,” the highest elder muttered. He thought that he had to steal the seal from Bai Chen, no matter what.
If he could have five more people from the Blazing Flames sect enter the graveyard, that would be very good!
