“ ere was an incident, but it was taken care o !” You Ming
smiled.
Whoosh!
A black light trailed his face, drawing blood.
You Ming was appalled Elder Jian would strike him.
Staring at him, Elder Jian said unfeelingly, “ is secret plan had
been going for a decade. If your overcon dence ruins the
House’s plan, I will make you beg for death.”
“Yes!” You Ming bowed as cold sweat formed.
“Leave.” Elder Jian waved, “We’ll begin three days from now.”
You Ming was at the door when he caught Elder Jian’s sneer, “No
Luo clan member is allowed to live, especially…”
“Zhuo Fan!” You Ming paused a er each word.
Nodding, Elder Jian’s killing intent surged, “Even if Veiled
Dragon Pavilion used him to kill You uan, his hands are
stained with your junior brother’s blood. No such person shall
live in this world!”
“Yes!”
You Ming gnashed his teeth, his smile bloodthirsty…

Chapter 34, Battle
Approaches
Zhuo Fan was sitting cross-le ed on his bed when he opened his
eyes.
He was but a step away from entering the 5th layer of Qi
Condensation. But his lack of Yuan Qi blocked his advance.
If he had known, he would’ve spent more time on Blackwind
Mountain to absorb more people’s Yuan Qi. But since he was
pressed for time, he only let Blood Infant do the killing, wasting
good materials in the process.
With the battle knocking at his door, he refrained from letting
Blood Infant roam. It would be a huge loss for it to die if Elder
Jian bumped into Blood Infant.
Zhuo Fan muttered, “I can only hold it in. It will not be long
before they attack!”
Yet, his last word was followed by a terrifying power looming
ever closer towards his direction.
He ran out of the house and jumped onto the roof to see a man
was already there, oating in the sky, Long Jiu.
He too felt the power approaching closer and closer, as his single
eye s uinted with the release of killing intent. Despite this place
being a hundred meters from Veiled Dragon Pavilion, Zhuo Fan
shivered from the intense desire to kill.
“I knew it. ey’re Profound Heaven experts!”
Even if Zhuo Fan couldn’t pinpoint Long Jiu’s power, guring
out his stage was easy. Hovering in the sky was all the proof he
needed. As for the other two Elders, they were even stronger.
inking of them, he swept the area, but Zhuo Fan saw no
shadow of them. ey had to be laying an ambush to trap Jian
Fan.
Zhuo Fan sported a wicked grin.
e three Elders’ plan showed Veiled Dragon Pavilion’s decision
to ght Hell Valley to the death, regardless of conse uences. is
le no room for amicable conciliation, while also securing the
Luo clan’s safety.
“Zhuo Fan, what happened?”
Luo Yunchang with Lei Yuting and the rest came outside. Zhuo
Fan guessed Mountain Lord hadn’t nished digesting the pill
since he didn’t come. Zhuo Fan sorely lacked a peak expert.
He yelled, “What are you doing? Get back inside!”
eir little power was nothing to a Profound Heaven expert,
unlike Zhuo Fan who relied on the Nine Heavens Coiling
Dragon Array.
Luo Yunchang knew the gravity of the situation from Zhuo Fan’s
tense face. She took her brother and the others to hide in the
house while also saying, “Zhuo Fan, be careful!”
Zhuo Fan nodded.
A sudden cawing echoed in their ears and a black cloud oated
above Veiled Dragon Pavilion. With a laugh, a black-robed old
man walked out of the cloud. e few strands of hair on his head
dri ed in the wind as his evil eyes narrowed on Long Jiu. But
even so, he couldn’t help spare the small courtyard a glance.
“Condor Jian Fan, how dare you step into my domain?” Long
Jiu’s one and only eye was bloodshot. His bone-deep hatred
seeped into every word he uttered.
Snickering, Condor Jian Fan laughed, “Long Jiu, Veiled Dragon
Pavilion killed Hell Valley’s disciple, You uan. You’re saying I
can’t even come to seek justice?”
“Justice? Since when did Hell Valley know the meaning of the
word?”
Long Jiu’s breathing grew ra ed from the grudge he carried,
“Who then plotted against me in Dri ing Leaves City? Who
then set a trap for me and ruined my Purple Lightning Gold
Eye?”
Purple Lightning Gold Eye?
Zhuo Fan didn’t expect the people in the mortal domain to
cultivate such a remarkable ability.
e legend of the Purple Lightning Gold Eye went back to the
time of the ten Sovereigns, pertaining to one of the top three
Sovereigns, Heavenly Sovereign’s mystic eye. It released a golden
light, divine lightning that could crush Heaven. Even a Saint
Stage expert would fall from his gaze.
Yet, this amazing cultivation method appeared in the mortal
domain. He was curious as to how in heavens Long Jiu managed
to cultivate it. If it was cultivated to the 6th Heaven, it was a
pity to have it ruined.
Even he, the Demonic Emperor, would feel the same hatred as if
having his wife stolen or his father killed.
“Ha-ha-ha…”
Jian Fan wasn’t the least bit ashamed and laughed instead, “Who
is to blame for your idiocy? Relying on your eye, you became a
top expert in the Veiled Dragon Pavilion. Without this crutch,
you’ve degenerated to become one of the nine elders, stuck to
defend Windgaze City. Oh, the horror.”
“Jian Fan!”
Long Jiu’s energy blew with his rage and even his eye was on the
verge of bleeding, “I will have my revenge!”
Long Jiu charged as a golden dragon coiled around his hand.
“Mid spirit ranked martial art, Soaring Dragon Claw!”
Roar!
e dragon roared and le Long Jiu’s arm, baring its fangs at the
enemy.
Jian Fan sneered and simply waved his hand.
A black mist formed chains as it le his sleeve, binding the
golden dragon. With a twist of his hand, the golden dragon
wailed and shattered to pieces.
“Mid spirit ranked martial art, Hell Chains!”
Jian Fan mocked, “Long Jiu, you were a dragon with your eye
before, but you are now a mere bug. e name of Godeye Long
Jiu will never rise again…”
Before he could nish, a palm appeared before him and a claw
grabbed his wrist.
“Veiled Dragon Claw!”
Jian Fan was unable to escape the vise but he wasn’t too worried
as he laughed, “Humph, think you can face me with mortal
ranked martial arts when even spirit ranked martial arts are
useless?”
“He-he-he, I don’t need to take your life, just…”
Grinning, Long Jiu threw Jian Fan to the ground! e blond and
the red-haired Elders jumped from nearby to attack him.
“Not good!”
Jian Fan started panicking.
Only now did he realize Long Jiu’s ploy. Long Jiu wanted to trap
him with two others, cutting o his escape.
Long Jiu is set on killing me, but…
Jian Fan grinned.
“Now!”
e black cloud revealed two men in black as they converged on
Long Jiu.
is le Long Jiu and the Elders in shock. But thanks to Zhuo
Fan’s intelligence, they had a contingency in place.
“Old Jiu, hold fast!”
e blond E lder moved swi ly towards Jian Fan with the red-
haired Elder behind him, ignoring Long Jiu’s fate.
Long Jiu grinned as a golden light shined on his palm and a
dragon-shaped sword appeared, “As long as you kill Jian Fan, I
can die in peace.”
“3rd-grade spiritual weapon, Dragon Sword?”
e two men in black stopped in their attacks and dodged the
incoming sword attack.
Whoosh!
A golden light passed just an inch from them as a thunderclap
followed behind it. e light split the sky in half and only a er
ten breaths did it recover.
e two men in black felt dread while retreating ten steps. ey
didn’t expect Long Jiu to use a treasure to deal with them.
“Good!”
e blond Elder shouted in glee. Long Jiu’s attack scared the two
men. He wrapped himself in golden light and charged at Jian
Fan.
Attacked from two sides, Jian Fan was like meat on a chopping
board.
“Old Jiu, take a look, see how ird Brother ends him.”
e blond Elder laughed as he attacked. Despite not using a
martial art, ear-piercing sounds were heard as his hand moved.
Jian Fan began to sweat as his eyes s uinted, feeling death
breathing down his neck…
Boom!
But then a purple light exploded. It not only blocked the attack
but even forced the blond Elder to cough blood.
e red-haired Elder rushed to check on him while the blond
Elder ignored his wounds and stared at the rolling smoke.
As for Long Jiu, he was shocked.
When the smoke scattered, it revealed a panting Jian Fan. But
this time, he was no longer afraid and even grew rampant having
escaped death.
“ at was close. Didn’t think Veiled Dragon Pavilion would send
Fi h and ird Elders a er me! Devastating Gold Dragon and
World-burning Fire Dragon, your reputations precede you!”
e two Elders were staring, not at Jian Fan, but at the thing on
his shoulder…
Soul Devouring Crow!
Zhuo Fan frowned.
He didn’t expect for Elder Jian to have such a demonic creature.
e Soul Devouring Crow’s body wasn’t formidable, but it can
devour anything and transfer what it swallowed to its owner.
Soul Devouring Crow’s power depended on its owner. But one
thing was certain, Soul Devouring Crow was among the strong
demonic creatures.
Zhuo Fan’s eyebrows shook as he looked into the crow’s eyes.
One was black, while the other was golden and released a purple
light. Even faint thunder sounds came out.
“3rd Heaven, Purple Lightning Gold Eye!”

Chapter 35, Purple Lightning
Gold Eye
“ at’s… that’s my eye!”
With just a look, Long Jiu saw through the secret of the crow’s
eye. He used to move unhindered thanks to that same eye and
even earned the name Godeye Long Jiu.
But the godeye was now his enemy’s weapon to be used against
him.
“I-impossible!” Long Jiu shook his head in denial.
Jian Fan’s laughter was unrestrained, “Long Jiu, did you ever
think that your precious Purple Lightning Gold Eye will one day
be put to use on my demonic creature? If you want to kill me,
you’ll have to rst overcome this eye.”
en he began making hand signs.
e crow ew and purple light glinted in its golden eye,
rumbling as it charged at Long Jiu.
“Watch out!”
e blond Elder woke Long Jiu out of his stupor in time to
defend with his Dragon Sword.
Boom!
Long Jiu was struck down by one purple lightning a er another
and was blown away coughing blood.
e two Elders rushed to Jian Fan in panic. ey knew that as
long as Jian Fan stopped his hands, the crow would stop moving.
But how could Jian Fan not see such an obvious aw?
Sneering, he gestured again and caused two explosions, the
purple lightning struck the two Elders. ey bore the brunt as it
sent them ying and blood leaked from their mouths.
Zhuo Fan was shocked by how vicious the Purple Lightning
Gold Eye was. It was only in 3rd Heaven and it could already
outclass a Profound Heaven expert.
As matters stood, Veiled Dragon Pavilion would lose, and the
Luo clan would be next.
“No, I cannot let that happen.”
S uinting, Zhuo Fan gnashed his teeth and pointed, sending a
red light at Jian Fan.
He was taking a huge gamble. If Blood Infant was found out, it
would die in a blink from the purple lightning, and him along
with it.
But if he stood at the sidelines, the Luo clan would be sure to fall
for good.
Zhuo Fan hardened his heart and sent the Blood Infant on the
o ensive.
Jian Fan was focused on Veiled Dragon Pavilion’s three Elders
and was oblivious to the incoming danger.
“Ha-ha-ha, Purple Lightning Gold Eye is awesome. Not even
together are you three fools its match,” e crow ew back to
Jian Fan’s shoulder as he cackled.
e two men in black ew to either side of Jian Fan and
grinned.
e three Veiled Dragon Pavilion Elders’ faces darkened. e
enemy looked down on them despite acting together. is was
the rst time this had ever happened.
If they lost here today, Veiled Dragon Pavilion’s reputation
would be thrown into the mud, all thanks to them.
“Don’t think you can win with a damn demonic creature and a
stolen eye, Condor,” e blond Elder’s eyes ashed golden and
exploded with killing intent.
“Old Jiu, old Wu, stay here. I will take their heads.”
While shocked, the red-haired Elder saw the determination in
his eyes and nodded, as did Long Jiu.
As they were all Elders of Veiled Dragon Pavilion, they knew the
blond old man’s true power.
Once the Devastating Gold Dragon was enraged, he would split
the earth and shatter the heavens. During the time when Long
Jiu had his eye, there were three people in Veiled Dragon
Pavilion he couldn’t beat.
1st and 2nd Elder were the rst two, while the last was the
enraged ird Elder.
Whoosh!
A dazzling golden light shined and started covering him with a
thick lm, like a golden armor. Each time his nger moved, it let
out a metallic sound.
Jian Fan’s face turned grave, picking up on the threat to his life
the old man’s change promised.
“Allow me to educate you that the name of Devastating Gold
Dragon isn’t an empty title.”
e blond Elder formed claws with his hands, all the while
radiating in gold and staring at Jian Fan with a cold gaze. en
he rushed at Jian Fan. In his charge, the Elder brought his hands
together, just like scissors.
Roar!
A dragon roar echoed in the pitch-black night. Jian Fan saw the
blond Elder appear surrounded by the image of a huge dragon.
It unclenched its jaws and followed the blond Elder’s claws to
swallow the three enemies whole.
“High spirit ranked martial art, Devouring Dragon Claw!”
Startled, Jian Fan hastened his hand gestures to control the
crow’s Purple Lightning Gold Eye.
Boom! And a purple light ashed!
But this time, when the lightning fell on the dragon, it bounced
o like a bullet, not even able to slow it down.
Jian Fan panicked, unable to believe that the blond Elder would
be so strong that he could de ect Purple Lightning Gold Eye’s
attack. But he did notice how the dragon’s golden aura dimmed.
“Hell Chains!”
Jian Fan and his two men moved together. Tens of black chains
ew from their arms and fell on the dragon like a dark cloud.
e chains tightened and the dragon body was rendered
motionless under their vise, yet the dragon still lingered,
wanting to press on the attack.
