Chapter 1239: Chapter 1137: The Shock of the Soul Locking Gate!

Along the way, Ren Feifan’s embrace of a delicate figure was quite pleasant, if not for the chains on Ye Qingcheng, the two might really have done something interesting.

However, Shao Xiangning occasionally turned her head back to look at them, uncertain whether she was afraid they would get lost or what she was looking at.

In fact, every time Shao Xiangning saw the affectionate sight of the two of them, for some reason an inexplicable jealousy arose in her heart.

How did such an excellent and powerful man get snatched up by Ye Qingcheng?

What virtues and abilities did Ye Qingcheng possess? In terms of beauty, she shouldn’t be losing to her, right? Speaking of family background, the Ye family couldn’t compare to the Shao family at all. When Ye Qingcheng and the Lei Family initially sent out wedding invitations, Shao Xiangning received one too but simply disdained it and didn’t go.

However, Shao Xiangning thought to herself that the Hidden Gate didn’t have the secular crime of polygamy, and it was normal for a man to marry many wives, so wouldn’t she still have a chance?

With this thought, she felt giddy with delight and subconsciously sneaked glances at Ren Feifan behind her.

"Miss Shao, what’s got you so happy? Come on, tell me so I can be happy too."

Ren Feifan had already caught up with Shao Xiangning on his mount, and at this moment his eyes held a trace of puzzlement.

Shao Xiangning suddenly felt as if she had been caught in an affair, her face blushed, shaking her head like a rattle-drum, "I...I wasn’t thinking anything, Lord, please don’t misunderstand, let’s hurry on our way. We should try to get to the Shao Family before dark."

No sooner had she spoken than Shao Xiangning slapped the rear of her mount, and in an instant, the creature beneath her sprinted forward rapidly, quickly putting distance between herself and Ren Feifan.

Ren Feifan rubbed his head, somewhat puzzled, and chased after her.

...

Meanwhile, at a dark place within the Inner Hidden Gate.

There was only faint light here, and the ground was littered with thousands of coffins, densely packed, causing one’s heart to palpitate.

On another side, there were countless piles of bones, piled up like small hills.

Further inside, there sat a dimly lit grand hall, and at the top sat a middle-aged man whose face was hidden by a black robe. His aura was extremely terrifying, his oppressive presence causing everyone below to feel a tremor of the soul.

Hanging at the very top of the grand hall was a black plaque with three powerful, vigorous characters written on it—Soul Locking Gate!

The Soul Locking Gate, established nearly a thousand years ago, was like an untouchable existence in the Hidden Gate, making everyone who heard these three words lose their courage.

This was because behind the Soul Locking Gate was the presence of that powerful and mysterious Demon Sect!

People of the Hidden Gate knew that once involved with the Soul Locking Gate, suffering would be worse than death! Therefore, upon seeing someone from the Soul Locking Gate, they all kept their distance.

At this moment, the atmosphere on the grand hall of the Soul Locking Gate was somewhat eerie.

Lu Yinkui had been carried into the grand hall on a stretcher, lying there like a lump of mud, only able to lie prostrate, his cultivation completely dissipated.

He had been reduced to a cripple.

Many disciples of the Soul Locking Gate stood by his side; seeing Lu Yinkui’s pitiful state, none could help but frown—it was just too tragic.

The people of the Soul Locking Gate had never suffered such humiliation!

Was there actually someone in this world bold enough to torment someone from the Soul Locking Gate? Had they grown tired of living?

The black-robed elder sitting on the dais was named Jiang Cheng, the grandson of Jiang Yan. A man who had lived for hundreds of years, he had taken control of the Soul Locking Gate after his father stepped down, flourishing its influence. Later, he accidentally obtained a mysterious cultivation technique, but despite being extremely strange, after a hundred years, he still couldn’t understand it. He then began to collect the bodies of dead cultivators to verify a certain idea in his mind.

This is also the reason why the Soul Locking Gate collects a large number of cultivator corpses from the secular world and the Outer Hidden Sect.

At this moment, Jiang Cheng’s eyes were firmly fixed on Lu Yinkui, and his fists were even more tightly clenched!

The murderous aura on his body burst forth, and his aura was wrapped in the bloodthirsty intent!

Seeing his own subordinate tormented to such an extent, there was no glory left on his face!

More than just no glory! It was the ultimate humiliation! He felt his cheeks burning hotly and even stood up in anger and said, "How could Lu Yinkui be like this, can anyone give me an explanation!"

Lu Yinkui’s body trembled slightly, and then a difficult voice came, "Sect Leader, I... I can explain!"

Jiang Cheng glanced at Lu Yinkui and said coldly, "Speak!"

Lu Yinkui then briefly recounted the events that had happened before. As for the strong individual at the auction, he hadn’t mentioned it yet—he didn’t dare to.

The Black Robe elder on the stage, Jiang Cheng, grew increasingly livid, and by the end, his entire face was dark!

After a while, he pondered for a moment and said, "You mean that the kid with the surname Ren came from the secular world? And that he’s so strong he can defeat Hidden Gate members above his level?"

Lu Yinkui nodded, "Although this person is only in the Innate Realm, when he truly erupts, those in the True Path Realm might not be his match, such a freak of nature!"

The more Sect Leader Jiang Cheng heard, the more mysterious it seemed. While indeed there were some masters in the Hidden Gate who could fight above their level, he had never heard of someone from the secular world being able to do so against Hidden Gate members!

It was simply inconceivable!

Lu Yinkui continued to add, "It’s not just his fighting that’s bizarre, he also possesses some treasures. In his hands there is a Bronze Man, which can transform in size, with unpredictable strength. Initially, it was even able to hold off several masters above the Wanxiang Realm."

"There are such treasures?"

Jiang Cheng became somewhat short of breath, for the first time feeling as though he might be about to grasp some kind of opportunity.

"Given that, the alliance of the Soul Locking Gate with the Lei Family should not have failed, why did it turn into the situation at hand?" Jiang Cheng asked.

At this point, Lu Yinkui’s complexion became somewhat troubled, as he faltered, "Because... because... Sect Leader, I don’t know how to say it."

The Black Robe man on the stage, Jiang Cheng, became angry, slapped his chair, and shouted, "Don’t give me excuses, spill everything that happened, or else I’ll personally send you on your way!"

Lu Yinkui panicked, hurriedly saying, "Sect Leader, it’s because there is an extremely powerful being protecting him! No one dares to touch him!"

Jiang Cheng frowned, "A powerful being? Hmph, how strong is he?"

Lu Yinkui stole a glance at Jiang Cheng on the stage, his voice trembling, "It’s possible... possibly even stronger than the Sect Leader... because without seeing me, just with his oppressive aura, he inflicted such injuries on me. At that moment, I felt that no one could be a match for that person, all there was, was fear."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng’s eyes turned completely stern. To use just an oppressive aura to injure Lu Yinkui to this extent, one from the Transcendence Realm would not be enough, nor could it be from the Life Loss Realm. Could it be a higher realm? How could such a master be protecting a mere mortal?

"Sect Leader, that person also said something else..." Lu Yinkui said.

"What did he say?"

"Sect Leader... he said... he said that even if Jiang Yan were in his presence, he would have to kneel just like I did... He also referred to himself as ’This King’..." Lu Yinkui said with a trembling voice.

"Snap!"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Cheng became thoroughly enraged; his palm slapped down, and the screen behind him turned to dust, scattering away!
