At that moment, Nangong Ruxue rushed into the main hall with a terrified expression on her face!
“Ruxue, what happened?”
Shen Subing immediately frowned.
Nangong Ruxue’s eyes were bloodshot, tears streaming uncontrollably down her cheeks.
“Master... 3 hours ago, more than 100 of our senior and junior brothers and sisters were killed by the disciples of the 4th Elder... wuuuuu...!”
“Senior Sister Mu was severely injured... and Senior Brother Song Hong... is dead!”
The instant he heard those words, Tan Yun’s body trembled violently while seated on the jade chair!
His eyes instantly filled with grief and worry.
At that moment, he almost wanted to rush out immediately to check on Mu Mengji’s condition and avenge Song Hong!
Song Hong was one of his closest brothers!
How could Tan Yun possibly not feel heartbroken?
And on top of that, Mu Mengji had been gravely injured as well!
Inside Tan Yun’s heart, waves of fury and sorrow surged violently. His fists clenched so tightly that veins bulged across his hands, yet he still forcibly suppressed his emotions and continued listening!
“Ruxue, explain everything to your master clearly!”
Shen Subing nearly roared.
“Why would Lu Yi’s disciples dare kill Song Hong and the others?!”
Nangong Ruxue gritted her teeth, hatred burning in her reddened eyes.
“Master... half a month ago, after Senior Brother Song’s legs were crippled, he used a wheelchair to travel to the Virtue Herb Garden to gather medicinal herbs for alchemy.”
“During that time, our disciples guarding the herb garden got into an argument with the disciples of the 4th Elder.”
“It turns out those people had their eyes on the spirit herbs in our garden and wanted to buy them with spirit stones.”
“When our disciples refused, they attacked immediately!”
“At that time, Senior Brother Song only said, ‘You are not welcome here,’ that was all...”
“But who would’ve thought the other side would instantly slash out with their swords?!”
“Because Senior Brother Song’s legs were still injured, he couldn’t dodge in time... and was killed on the spot!”
“When our disciples saw someone had been murdered, the conflict exploded immediately!”
“Both sides called for reinforcements!”
“Senior Sister Mu and the others hurried over to help, and Xue Ziyan from the Five Souls Lineage also joined the battle.”
“In the end... both of them suffered severe injuries!”
“And another 136 of our disciples... were slaughtered!”
At this point, Nangong Ruxue completely broke down in tears.
“This incident shocked Chief Tang greatly!”
“She’s currently at the Virtue Herb Garden together with the 4th Elder and Han Zhishi from the Law Enforcement Hall!”
“That bastard surnamed Han is clearly siding with the 4th Elder’s faction!”
“Lu Yi! You’ve gone too far!”
Shen Subing trembled with rage.
“I absolutely will not allow my disciples to die for nothing!”
After speaking, she turned toward Tan Yun.
“Master, I need to go deal with this first. Please wait for me here.”
But Tan Yun slowly shook his head, his expression twisted with fury that was nearly impossible to suppress.
Even though he tried to control himself, his voice still sounded terrifyingly cold.
“Subing, there’s no need.”
“I... also have matters to handle.”
He thought about Song Hong’s death, as well as the severe injuries suffered by Xue Ziyan and Mu Mengji.
The killing intent within his heart erupted like a volcanic explosion!
“Subing, give me the ‘Nirvana Sacred Flame’ that Old De gave you first.”
“After that, go handle your own matters.”
“I’ll come back to see you later.”
“Mm!”
Shen Subing immediately handed the Nirvana Sacred Flame over to Tan Yun without hesitation.
At that moment, Nangong Ruxue finally became certain that the mysterious figure wearing the “Turtle Breath Concealing Veil” was none other than her Martial Grandmaster!
She hurriedly knelt before Tan Yun respectfully.
“This disciple greets Martial Grandmaster!”
Afterward, Shen Subing looked at Tan Yun with reluctant eyes before taking Nangong Ruxue, who was at the Great Perfection of the Embryonic Soul Realm, and soaring into the sky toward the Virtue Herb Garden located 30,000 li away...
Because Nangong Ruxue had not yet broken through to the 1st Level of the Soul Refining Realm,
she still retained the status of an Inner Sect disciple of the Alchemy Lineage and remained by Shen Subing’s side at all times...
After Shen Subing left, Tan Yun immediately removed the “Turtle Breath Cold Veil” from his body!
A terrifying killing intent erupted from him like a raging storm as he rushed down from Virtue Palace at top speed!
He continuously used the “Primordial Divine Step,” his figure turning into a blurred phantom as he sped toward the Virtue Herb Garden located 30,000 li away!
The speed of the Primordial Divine Step was more than 2 times faster than flying on a sword!
Although it consumed an enormous amount of spiritual energy, Tan Yun no longer cared about such things at this moment!
...
The Virtue Herb Garden was located within a massive canyon stretching over 100 li deep, at the center of the Virtue Immortal Valley region.
Inside the valley was a supreme-grade Spirit Gathering Formation, making the spiritual energy there incredibly dense and perfectly suited for cultivating spiritual herbs.
The herb garden extended from the depths of the valley all the way to the peaks on both sides.
Countless spiritual herbs ranging from Rank 3 to Rank 9 covered the mountains, including many precious herbs that were over 1,000 years old!
“Senior Brother Song! You died such a miserable death!”
“Senior Brother Songggg!”
“Junior Brother Wang, don’t worry! Once Elder Virtue arrives, justice will definitely be served for all of you!”
“Senior Sister-in-law! Wake up!”
“Junior Sister Xue! Please wake up!”
“...”
Heartbreaking cries filled with grief and despair echoed throughout the valley outside the herb garden.
At this moment, more than 3,800 disciples under Shen Subing were staring at the hundreds of corpses lying in pools of blood across the grasslands, along with Mu Mengji and Xue Ziyan, who were gravely injured and unconscious.
Every single disciple was crying in pain!
Not far behind them—
Lu Yi, the 4th Elder, stood hunched with his hands behind his back, coldly staring at the corpses of Shen Subing’s disciples.
Within his murky eyes, there was only indifference... and ridicule.
Human life meant absolutely nothing to him!
He looked down on the weakness of Shen Subing’s disciples!
And he felt proud that his faction had killed 136 of Shen Subing’s disciples while not losing a single person themselves!
At this time, aside from the disciples currently in secluded cultivation, all 11,000 disciples under Lu Yi had gathered there and stood respectfully behind him.
The massive conflict between Shen Subing’s disciples and Lu Yi’s faction had completely shaken the entire Alchemy Lineage of the Immortal Sect!
At present, aside from Shen Subing who had not yet arrived—
All 39 elders, including Tang Xinying, along with more than 400 supervising chiefs, had already gathered at the scene!
Tang Xinying glanced coldly at Lu Yi.
If the other party’s master had not been the Chief of the Sacred Alchemy Lineage, she would have found a way to get rid of him long ago!
And today, she already had her own plans in mind.
She intended to use this incident to strike back at Lu Yi!
Even if she could not completely bring him down, she would still make him pay a painful price!
At the same time, she knew very well—
Lu Yi had long coveted her position as Chief of the Alchemy Lineage!
Not long afterward—
Shen Subing, whose face was pale and breathing unstable, descended from the sky together with Nangong Ruxue before stopping in front of Tang Xinying.
She glared fiercely at Lu Yi with eyes full of hatred before respectfully bowing to Tang Xinying.
“Chief, you already know what happened.”
“I ask that you uphold justice for my dead disciples!”
The atmosphere across the entire Virtue Herb Garden became unbearably tense!
“Subing, there’s no need to worry.”
Tang Xinying spoke coldly.
“I will handle this matter fairly.”
As she finished speaking, a frosty chill appeared on her beautiful face.
She turned toward the middle-aged man wearing the Law Enforcement Hall robes and said sternly,
“Han Zhishi.”
“As the overseer of the Law Enforcement Hall, you should know better than anyone that disciples are forbidden from trespassing into another elder’s herb garden!”
“Yet all 89 disciples under the 4th Elder not only barged in—”
“They even attacked first and murdered Song Hong along with another 136 disciples!”
“The entire incident began because the 4th Elder’s faction was in the wrong.”
“According to sect law, how should this matter be handled?”
“This subordinate obeys!”
Han Yong answered respectfully.
At the same time, Lu Yi, who stood nearby, subtly gave him a signal with his eyes.
Han Yong instantly understood.
He stepped forward 2 paces and stood before Tang Xinying before turning toward all the elders and disciples present.
His expression became solemn, and his voice rang loudly throughout the entire Virtue Herb Garden.
“Everyone!”
“As the Chief has stated, the disciples under the 4th Elder who caused these deaths...”
“Should be executed immediately!”
“As for everyone who participated in the battle—”
“Their cultivation should be crippled, and they should be expelled from the sect!”
