Chapter 1014: Chapter 1014: Could There Be Deception in This?

"If Senior Brother Ouyang has something important to say, please say it quickly from outside. If there’s nothing important, I would ask Senior Brother Ouyang to leave."

Although there was some discord between Chang Bai and Lin Chen, Chang Bai didn’t have a good impression of Ouyang Jin either, and directly ordered him to leave.

Ouyang Jin’s face turned extremely ugly upon hearing Chang Bai’s words.

He did not expect that after he was no longer the Deputy Sect Master, people in the sect would disrespect him to such an extent. Even a newly promoted member of the Ten Great True Disciples dared to treat him with such an attitude, which greatly displeased Ouyang Jin.

"Since Junior Brother Chang is not inclined to receive guests, I will take my leave now. When Junior Brother Chang has time, I will come to pay a visit," Ouyang Jin said coldly, his eyes filled with a cold hatred, enunciating every word very clearly.

Having said that, Ouyang Jin left.

Now that he was no longer the Deputy Sect Master, these people no longer respected him, and he would settle this account in the future.

However, for now, he had to suppress these emotions.

At this moment, Chang Bai stood at the summit of Chang Yun Mountain, watching the back of Ouyang Jin as he left, and a cold sneer couldn’t help but appear on his lips.

Chang Bai was not foolish; he clearly understood the purpose of Ouyang Jin’s visit, nothing more than to pull him together to deal with Lin Chen.

However, Chang Bai wasn’t a fool. Since joining the Formation Sect, he and Lin Chen had fought countless times and was well aware of Lin Chen’s methods.

Was Lin Chen someone easy to kill? If he were that easy to handle, Chang Bai would have succeeded long ago; there would have been no need to wait for Ouyang Jin and others to make a move.

Although Chang Bai was unaware of Ouyang Jin and the others’ plans, merely trying to deal with Lin Chen was likely not so simple.

To kill Lin Chen, one would need a force far superior to Lin Chen’s own.

So, Chang Bai did not wish to get involved in this tumult at the moment.

Moreover, to cooperate with someone like Ouyang Jin—who knew if he would backstab him along the way?

Even for Chang Bai, he would rather cooperate with an opponent like Lin Chen than with someone like Ouyang Jin.

After all, Lin Chen was principled in his actions, while Ouyang Jin would resort to any means necessary to achieve his goals.

Furthermore, the conflict between Chang Bai and Lin Chen was just a fierce competition when they first joined the Formation Sect, not a deadly feud.

Now it seemed Lin Chen had not brought up the matter, and as long as Chang Bai did not provoke Lin Chen any further, Lin Chen might not take that matter to heart.

So for Chang Bai, he and Lin Chen had always engaged in open and fair competition, never resorting to underhanded tactics.

He now had a great opportunity, and as long as his Cultivation Technique reached Great Success, he may well be able to fight Lin Chen openly and defeat him fairly.

Watching Ouyang Jin’s disappearing figure, a sneer appeared on Chang Bai’s lips; he was curious to see whether Ouyang Jin and his people would be able to handle Lin Chen...

...

At this moment, Yu Chuan, following the instructions given by Ouyang Jin, arrived at a borderland some seven thousand kilometers outside Cloud Sky City.

He first hid at the location indicated by Ouyang Jin, and not long after, someone came to meet him.

When Yu Chuan realized the person was a Demon Cultivator from Red Soul Hall, he was shocked internally; he had not expected Ouyang Jin to have connections with Demon Cultivators from Red Soul Hall.

Among the Demon Cultivators of Red Soul Hall present, Yu Chuan recognized a few faces.

Seeing Yu Chuan did not surprise the Red Soul Hall’s Demon Cultivators, who then proceeded to exchange secret signs with him.

After the secret signs matched up and they confirmed it was correct, they began to negotiate with Yu Chuan.

"How well have you managed to gather information?" Yu Chuan approached the Demon Cultivators of Red Soul Hall and asked indifferently.

"Spies have already infiltrated Cloud Sky City, and based on the intelligence gathered, Cloud Sky City is amassing forces and preparing for warfare. Our opportunities are limited; the only viable target, with a high chance of success, is Lin Chen’s daughter."

The Demon Cultivators of Red Soul Hall looked at Yu Chuan, detailing the intelligence one by one.

The ability of the Red Soul Hall’s Demon Cultivators to infiltrate Cloud Sky City was due to the city opening its gates daily for business, which provided them with the opportunity.

Moreover, within Cloud Sky City, there were many disciples from Bodhi Hall who had sworn fealty to Red Soul Hall.

Although they now belonged to the Jade Cauldron Sect, through the means of Bodhi Hall, they were still able to communicate with Red Soul Hall.

"What kind of protection is around Lin Chen’s daughter, and is she easy to target?" Yu Chuan inquired.

The entire Jade Cauldron Sect was busy preparing for warfare, which indeed was a good opportunity to strike at Lin Chen.

Furthermore, targeting Lin Chen’s daughter would surely deal a tremendous blow to Lin Chen.

Thinking this, Yu Chuan felt somewhat excited.

"The little girl has no significant guards around her, but she herself is not weak, and she is accompanied by a Little Demon Wolf, whose combat power is unknown," the Demon Cultivators of Red Soul Hall explained in detail.

After hearing this, Yu Chuan laughed, believing that Lin Chen’s daughter’s strength could only be so strong no matter what.

As for the Little Demon Wolf, it seemed to be nothing more than a pet.

"Don’t underestimate Lin Chen’s daughter, though she’s only about three years old; her Cultivation has already reached the seventh level of the Reverting Void Realm. A three-year-old at the seventh level of the Reverting Void Realm is unheard of in the Eastern Domain, even across the entire Mysterious Heaven Continent," a Demon Cultivator from Red Soul Hall said with a look of envy.

Upon hearing this, Yu Chuan was stunned. A three-year-old Reverting Void Realm cultivator was indeed outrageous, something he was hearing for the first time.

Lin Chen’s child possessing such remarkable Talent must be related to Lin Chen’s own Talent.

A thought of retreating arose in Yu Chuan’s mind, but upon reflection, he realized he had no way back.

"You all think, with Lin Chen being such a cautious person, how would he allow his daughter to move around the city alone without any guards? Could there be a trick to this?" one of the Demon Cultivators from Red Soul Hall asked doubtfully.

Hearing this, Yu Chuan and the others shook their heads, not believing there was any deceit, since the Jade Cauldron Sect was currently preoccupied with war preparations and unlikely to pay attention to a little girl.
