Chapter 136.1: Once the Domain Emerges, None Can Resist; The Saber Slays Divine Fortification And Shocked Everyone! (I)

The informants of the Heavenly Maiden Sect were spread throughout the entire Zhanhai City. In terms of intelligence gathering, there was likely no force in the city that could rival them.

At this moment, a female disciple hurried before Yun Haitang. "Heavenly Maiden, as instructed, we have been closely monitoring the movements of the major forces in Zhanhai City. Just now, we discovered that Grand Elder Dark Abyss, sect master of the Dark Abyss Sect, entered the Three Flood Dragon Gang's headquarters. Not long after he left, the three leaders also rushed out, seemingly in pursuit."

The Heavenly Maiden frowned slightly. Grand Elder Dark Abyss and the three leaders of the Three Flood Dragon Gang were all Divine Fortification Realm experts and could be considered the overlords in Zhanhai City. At this level, they represented the city's top combat power. The Heavenly Maiden Sect also possessed a Divine Fortification martial artist, but

only

one. Compared to the Three Flood Dragon Gang, they were still far inferior.

"Where did they go?" she asked.

"It seems... they are heading toward the Far Ocean Merchant Association!"

"The Far Ocean Merchant Association..."

The Heavenly Maiden's expression changed drastically. The Far Ocean Merchant Association was merely a foreign merchant association. Could it really be worth the personal appearance of Grand Elder Dark Abyss, together with the three leaders of the Three Flood Dragon Gang?

Naturally, it was not. However, the Heavenly Maiden knew of Lu Changsheng's connection to the Far Ocean Merchant Association. That alone made it impossible for her to dismiss the matter lightly.

"The Far Ocean Merchant Association... Is Mr. Dao currently at the association?"

"Mr. Dao has just returned from the outer seas and is now at the association."

The Heavenly Maiden's heart skipped a beat. This was bad news. She did not believe the Far Ocean Merchant Association itself could provoke such a response. Only Dao Shi'er might be capable of drawing the attention of such entities.

She did not know what Dao Shi'er had done to offend them. In any case, there were Divine Fortification martial artists involved in this, and no matter how much confidence she had in Dao Shi'er, she could not help but feel that he was in grave danger now.

No. I must go to the Supreme Elder at once. I absolutely cannot let Mr. Dao come to harm!

With that thought, Yun Haitang went to seek an audience with the Supreme Elder at once. In fact, the Supreme Elder had once been the Heavenly Maiden herself. After stepping down, she devoted herself fully to martial cultivation. Now, she had become the very pillar that upheld the entire sect.

Yun Haitang did not waste any words. "Supreme Elder, please save Mr. Dao."

"Dao Shi'er..."

The Supreme Elder seemed hesitant. She was not afraid of Grand Elder Dark Abyss alone, but if the three leaders of the Three Flood Dragon Gang were also involved, this entire matter could get nasty. Although Dao Shi'er had a close relationship with Yun Haitang, the Supreme Elder bore the burden of the entire sect, and so she could not afford to be careless.

"Supreme Elder, Mr. Dao... has already joined the Northern Region Heavenly Sect and is now a disciple of the Heavenly Sect!"

Yun Haitang revealed the truth through clenched teeth.

A sharp gleam burst forth in the Supreme Elder's eyes. "What?! Dao Shi'er is the disciple of the Northern Region Heavenly Sect? Then there's no room for hesitation. Let's go!"

There was no longer any doubt in her mind; the Supreme Elder acted decisively and rushed toward the Far Ocean Merchant Association.

Lu Changsheng was there. This voyage had yielded considerable gains, and he needed to sort through them carefully.

"Dao Shi'er, get out!"

Suddenly, a voice filled with rage reached Lu Changsheng's ears.

"

Hm

?"

Lu Changsheng raised an eyebrow and looked out the window. Anyone who called him by that name should be well aware of his reputation, and yet this person had just shouted at him with blatant impudence. Who could it be?

Lu Changsheng immediately projected his Sense Domain.

"A Divine Fortification martial artist?"

Lu Changsheng sensed it clearly. It was a Divine Fortification martial artist; his entire being was saturated with killing intent. This was unmistakable hostility directed at him. Yet after a moment of thought, he could not recall ever offending a Divine Fortification Realm expert—aside from inner disciples of the Northern Region Heavenly Sect. But even then, it was impossible for such figures to pursue him all the way to Zhanhai City.

Lu Changsheng stood up as he pushed the door open and walked out. A Divine Fortification martial artist was an overlord powerhouse in the city. The Far Ocean Merchant Association could not possibly handle this.

"Yes, I am here."

Lu Changsheng emerged in front of the association. Standing there was the Divine Fortification Realm expert. It was an elderly man clad in a red robe, his gaze sinister and sharp, and his gaze locked onto Lu Changsheng.

"You are Dao Shi'er?" Grand Elder Dark Abyss asked coldly.

"I've never met you."

"

Hehe

. You have indeed never seen me, but you

have

met my four disciples."

Lu Changsheng's eyes narrowed slightly. At once, he thought of the four Divine Strength martial artists he had slain at sea.

"The Dark Abyss Sect?"

"Indeed. I am Grand Elder Dark Abyss, sect master of the Dark Abyss Sect. Since you killed my disciples, I naturally have to kill you," Grand Elder Dark Abyss hissed. "DIEEEE!"

His murderous intent surged forth. A vast ocean spread out, boundless and immense, as though it sought to drown Lu Changsheng within its depths.

"S-STOOOP!!"

"Old bastard, Dao Shi'er is the Dao Guardian of our current Heavenly Maiden Sect. How dare you attack him?!" someone shouted from afar.

Lu Changsheng narrowed his eyes. He spotted an old woman with a full head of white hair. Judging by her bearing, she could only be the sect's Supreme Elder.

"Crazy bitch, you'd better not interfere. This is between my sect and Dao Shi'er. It has nothing to do with the Heavenly Maiden Sect. If you insist on meddling, do not blame us for what follows."

With that, three Divine Fortification martial artists appeared in front of the Heavenly Maiden Sect's Supreme Elder and blocked her path.

"So the Three Flood Dragon Gang has really decided to stand with the Dark Abyss Sect, no matter what?" the Supreme Elder demanded, her expression darkened.

The three leaders of the Three Flood Dragon Gang offered no reply. They merely smiled calmly as they looked at her, their stance already clear.

"Y-You..."

The Supreme Elder's expression shifted slightly. With the three of them intervening, the situation became truly troublesome. At the very least, with these three Divine Fortification martial artists blocking her, she could not stop Grand Elder Dark Abyss.

Grand Elder Dark Abyss gave a vicious smirk. "

Hehe

... Dao Shi'er, no one can save you now!"

Lu Changsheng cast a deep glance at the three leaders. "The Three Flood Dragon Gang, Dark Abyss Sect..."
