Chapter 192 You Have Already Decided to Die
Where is the ancestral home of the Chen clan? What defenses are in place?
"The Chen clan's ancestral home is in Yunyang Ridge, which seems to be protected by a large fortification. I have never been to the Chen clan's ancestral home, so I know very little about it."
The disciple revealed all the information about the Chen family, but fortunately he didn't know that Chen Chunan hadn't taken Kong Deming of the Tianhou clan with him this time, but instead had him secretly look after Jiangzhou.
Lin Jing was immediately anxious when she heard that this disciple was actually telling her everything.
With Chen Chunan absent and this person clearly coming with malicious intent, how much pain would Chen Chunan suffer if the Chen clan were to suffer misfortune?
She struggled a few times, but to no avail.
However, her actions also caught the attention of the Minister of Justice.
"You seem to be in a hurry? What is your relationship with the Chen family?"
The other two disciples had also heard that Lin Jing had a connection with Chen Zhenjun, and the two seemed to be old friends.
However, Lin Jing failed to join one of the three upper sects and instead joined the Sword Sect, one of the four lower sects.
They naturally didn't believe the rumors much.
Seeing Lin Jing's behavior, the two disciples felt a chill run down their spines, fearing that the previous rumors might be true and could directly endanger their lives.
Lin Jing's heart clenched as she was stared at by this Nascent Soul cultivator. She realized that her unconscious anxiety had aroused his suspicion.
Knowing she had no chance of escaping today, she sneered at Fa Qing: "So what if we're related! Chen Chunan kills Nascent Soul cultivators like slaughtering pigs and dogs! You dare offend the Chen family? Are you prepared for how you'll die?"
Fa Qing saw that Lin Jing really did have a connection with Chen Chunan, and that a mere Golden Core cultivator would address Chen Chunan by his name, suggesting that their relationship was quite close.
Fa Qing glanced at the other two with a fierce look, and immediately closed his golden hand, crushing the other two disciples into mincemeat.
Dark red liquid dripped slowly from between the fingers of the golden thumb.
After dealing with the two disciples, Fa Qing turned to Lin Jing: "You! Lead the way to the Chen family. If you dare to play any tricks, this will be your fate too!"
Lin Jing witnessed the tragic deaths of her two senior brothers, which shocked her. She looked at Fa Qing with a bitter smile.
"You want me to betray Chen Chunan? Absolutely not! If you have the guts, kill me. Chen Chunan will avenge me! Then, there will be no place for you in the entire world! You're dead!"
Lin Jing's eyes were resolute. After saying these words, she closed her eyes and awaited her death.
Fa Qing looked at the defiant Lin Jing and suddenly revealed a cruel smile: "You really have backbone, but you are just a cultivator from the Desolate Region. How could you possibly know my methods? I only refrained from using them because I was afraid of offending the heavens."
The moment the minister's thought crossed his mind, a loud shout rang in his ears: "You scoundrel, how dare you!"
A blazing heavenly fire arrived suddenly with the words, instantly engulfing Fa Qing's body.
Strands of transparent, glass-like heavenly fire entered Fa Qing's body through his orifices.
"Ah, you bastard! Who is it?!"
Fa Qing used his supernatural powers to extinguish the heavenly flames on his body.
The magical hand that controlled the three also disappeared due to the fire.
Lin Jing was already on edge, and as soon as she controlled her large hand, she instantly activated the small teleportation talisman and disappeared.
The visitor was none other than Kong Deming of the Tianhou clan.
He was supposed to be a slave, but Chen Chunan pardoned him and made him a servant of the Chen family. Before leaving, Chen Chunan entrusted him with the care of Jiangzhou.
Now that he sees Chen Chunan's friend being controlled by others, how can he sit idly by?
But his move put Sha Wujing in a difficult position.
The Heavenly Dao rule dictates that all beings at the Nascent Soul stage and above must be killed, and those at the Deity Transformation stage are naturally within the scope of elimination.
Now that there's another Nascent Soul cultivator, he's facing a dilemma: should he kill them all at once?
Sha Wujing, high in the sky, looked down at the two who were confronting each other.
Although Kong Deming had succeeded in his attack, he stopped immediately when he saw that Lin Jing had already escaped.
While others might not recognize the Dao Sect, it was impossible for the Tianhou clan, who had long resided in the East Sea, not to recognize it.
He had intervened earlier to rescue Lin Jing, and now that she was saved, he naturally refused to take action again.
The Dao Sect is extremely protective of its own. If things go wrong, it could attract the old monster, and even Chen Chunan might not be able to handle it.
Thinking of this, Kong Deming immediately softened his tone.
But the Minister of Justice, suddenly suffering unbearable pain from the burning, was now filled with rage.
A stream of clear water descended from the sky, extinguishing the flames engulfing the body.
"The Celestial Hou clan? Insignificant ants, courting death!"
If it were a dragon, he might still be wary of whether Yu Jiaolong would protect her own.
But how dare this long-declining Tianhou clan attack me?
The Dharma Minister then brought forth a bright pearl, as red as cinnabar.
An overwhelming aura pressed down upon them instantly.
Fa Qing glared at Kong Deming with eyes blazing with fury, his hatred for the three disciples from before growing even stronger.
The Chen family clearly had a Heavenly Hou at the Nascent Soul stage in charge, yet these three ants dared to conceal this and harm them!
Seeing that the Taoist disciple was truly enraged, Kong Deming hurriedly said:
"Fellow Daoist of the Dao Sect, although my Chen clan has had a grudge against the Dao Yi Sect, isn't the Dao Sect's involvement akin to bullying the weak? The Dao Yi Sect also has many powerful figures at the Refinement of Void and Tribulation Transcending stages. Could it be that you've been used as a pawn?"
Kong Deming was unaware of Fa Qing's true purpose and thought it was because of a previous feud with the Dao Yi Sect that the younger generation had been attacked and the older generation had come to punish him.
When Fa Qing heard Kong Deming mention that his sect had also had a grudge against him, his heart skipped a beat.
Although Dao Yi Sect is a subordinate sect of the sect, it was established with the support of internal forces within the Dao Sect to handle external affairs.
The master of the Thirty-Six Heavenly Pillars was originally controlled by the elders within the sect.
Perhaps some people already knew that Chen Chunan was the leader of the New Path, given that they had a previous feud?
The magistrate's initial rage subsided considerably.
He thought to himself: I came here to gather information, and my master told me not to listen to anything I said. Now that this person has mistaken me for someone from the Daoist sect, I might as well take the opportunity to back down. Let the mistake be a mistake. I'll just go all out and have a fight before I leave.
Fa Qing looked at Kong Deming with a deliberately gloomy expression: "So what? This is how my Dao Sect operates!"
However, I underestimated the Chen clan; they actually have a Heavenly Hou, a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, guarding their territory.
"When did your Heavenly Hou clan become so depraved as to willingly become slaves?"
Kong Deming was by nature a calm and easygoing person, and although Fa Qing's words were often sarcastic, he didn't care much.
Instead, he kindly advised, "Fellow Daoist, you have been used as a pawn and refuse to admit it, which is truly perplexing. As for my clan, it is our fate, and you need not sow discord."
"Provoke me? Do I need to provoke you? You beast, you dare to lay a hand on me! Today I will kill you! The Chen clan shall be wiped out too! No one can be spared!"
The Minister of Justice spoke with such arrogance that it was almost unbearable, but he didn't make a move for a long time.
When the person above saw that the two hadn't actually started fighting, Wu Jing was extremely disappointed.
He didn't want to listen to their rambling anymore, so he immediately floated down.
The two people facing off stopped talking as soon as they saw Sha Wujing descending.
Seeing the two men become wary, Sha Wujing chanted a Buddhist prayer: "Namo Amitabha Buddha, this humble monk Sha Wujing has come to take your lives. Will you obediently submit, or will you test my abilities?"
