Ling Fan rushed towards the Four Symbols Sect without a moment's pause.
Along the way, he transformed into a streak of divine rainbow, extending straight from the Sky Cang Sect towards the Four Symbols Sect, thousands of miles away.
...
Within the Four Symbols Sect.
A long rainbow descended.
When Wu Zhi saw Ling Fan return, the heavy stone in his heart finally lifted.
But before he could step forward to speak.
Ling Fan directly entered the forbidden grounds.
This filled his heart with confusion.
Had Ling Fan gone to find Tian Cangzi, Chi Long Wang, and the others?
If Ling Fan had gone.
How did he manage to return safely?
This was simply unbelievable.
...
Within the forbidden grounds of the Four Symbols Sect.
Seeing that Xue Yi still had some time before her second tribulation erupted, Ling Fan finally felt at ease.
And when Xue Yi learned that Ling Fan had almost wiped out all the Great Spirit Realm powerhouses in the Upper Cang Realm, her mouth was agape in astonishment.
...
It had to be said, the efficiency of the toad was indeed extremely high.
In less than a day.
The earth-shattering events that had occurred in the Sky Cang Sect had not yet reached the territory of the Four Symbols Sect.
The two of them had returned first.
When the toad returned to the Four Symbols Sect with the ape demon, which was as massive as a small mountain.
It also brought back over a hundred storage artifacts.
These contained the treasures of the major sects in the Upper Cang Realm.
If they were piled together, they could form a mountain.
Even the toad itself was amazed.
It had not expected these sects to be so wealthy.
Returning to the Four Symbols Sect with countless heavenly treasures.
The toad was so happy its mouth could not close.
When Wu Zhi saw the toad return, he immediately stepped forward to inquire.
But when he saw the enormous ape demon behind the toad, he couldn't help but jump back in fright, exclaiming, "Lord Toad, where did this great demon come from! Is it an enemy pursuing us?"
The toad glanced at Wu Zhi with utter disdain.
"Look at your spineless demeanor. You are the sect leader, yet you are so cowardly!"
"To be so terrified, this is my subordinate."
"Oh!"
Wu Zhi finally relaxed.
"So it's our own... no, our own demon."
"Tsk tsk, a demon king in the middle stage of the Great Spirit Realm as a subordinate, Lord Toad truly has prestige."
Wu Zhi flattered.
"Heh, this is nothing. I, Master Mo, have latched onto the thigh of Venerable Ling. Better days are still ahead. Didn't you notice that after following Venerable Ling out for a few days, my strength not only recovered to its peak state but also greatly improved!"
The toad said proudly.
"Indeed, indeed!"
Wu Zhi obsequiously agreed.
"By the way, Lord Toad..."
"Stop calling me Lord Toad, call me Master Mo!"
"Master Mo! Master Mo!"
Wu Zhi grinned slyly, slapped his own mouth, and then asked the question that had been bothering him all along, "Master Mo, did Venerable Ling go to find the Sky Cang Sect and the Red Dragon Hall?"
The toad did not answer Wu Zhi's question.
It deliberately played with Wu Zhi's curiosity, calculated with its fingers, and said, "Judging by the time, the events that happened at the Sky Cang Sect should be reaching your Four Symbols Sect soon. You'll know soon enough."
"Don't, Master Mo! Tell me now, I'm dying of anxiety!"
Wu Zhi was almost in tears.
However, the toad completely ignored him, taking all the storage artifacts and going to find Ling Fan to claim credit.
Meanwhile, Wu Zhi's face was contorted like a bitter gourd.
If only he could defeat that toad...
Well.
Let alone defeating the toad, he couldn't even defeat the ape demon, its subordinate.
If he could, Wu Zhi would definitely hang the toad up and beat it for three days and three nights to vent his anger.
"Someone, stop everything you are doing and immediately go gather information!"
Wu Zhi immediately mobilized all the powerhouses of the Four Symbols Sect.
He did not forget to instruct, "Remember, all information, especially important news regarding Ling Fan, the Sky Cang Sect, and the Red Dragon Hall, must not be missed."
"Also, once you get the news, report back to me and go to the Sky Cang Sect or the Red Dragon Hall to verify the authenticity of the information!"
"Yes!"
The powerhouses of the Four Symbols Sect obeyed and left.
They had not been gone for long.
Soon, they returned.
"Sect... Sect Master... something tremendous has happened!"
The Four Symbols Sect powerhouses who returned to report were filled with shock and terror, speaking in stuttering voices, which made Wu Zhi anxious. He cursed, "Damn it, you brats are also playing coy with this Sect Master. If I can't deal with that toad, I can't deal with you all! Speak quickly, what is the news!"
"Reporting to the Sect Master! The entire outside world is in an uproar... The Sky Cang Sect was annihilated yesterday!"
"What!"
Wu Zhi almost jumped up in surprise.
He repeated the sentence obsessively.
"The Sky Cang Sect is destroyed... The Sky Cang Sect is destroyed... Did Ling Fan do this!"
His eyes showed horror, and he grabbed the disciple of the Four Symbols Sect in a state of disarray and asked.
"Reporting to the Sect Master, it was Ling Fan!"
"It is said that the Sect Master of the Sky Cang Sect, Tian Cangzi, gathered almost all the powerhouses of the Upper Cang Realm, including the Red Dragon Hall, the Blood Demon Sect, the Profound Frost Valley, the Silver Feather Sect, and the Soul-Chasing Gate, and even invited several top demon kings to deal with Ling Fan, but Ling Fan annihilated them all, and not a single one survived..."
"And..."
"And what, speak quickly."
"And the former Palace Master of the Snow King Palace, the Hall Master of the Red Dragon Hall, and the Sect Master of the Sky Cang Sect are still alive, and they have also appeared. The news says that they have all surpassed the Great Accomplishment King Realm and become powerhouses in the Void Core Realm!"
Wu Zhi cursed loudly, "Damn it, get to the point! They appeared, and then what? Those are three Void Core Realm powerhouses! Did they just stand by and watch Ling Fan destroy so many powerhouses without intervening!"
"Sect Master, don't be anxious, I'm about to say it... The three Void Core Realm powerhouses... were also killed by Ling Fan! I didn't dare to believe it at first... but now the whole world is filled with this news, and you can't help but believe it! One source of information can be wrong, but it's impossible for every source to be wrong!"
The Four Symbols Sect powerhouse's voice trembled.
Even now, he could not quite accept this earth-shattering news.
After hearing this, Wu Zhi felt dizzy, his eyes lost their focus. After a long while, he finally recovered from his shock.
"The Upper Cang Realm... has changed!"
Wu Zhi trembled with excitement.
"From now on, my children, the Upper Cang Realm belongs to our Four Symbols Sect!"
"Ling Fan's interest is not in the Upper Cang Realm at all. For a peerless figure like him, the Upper Cang Realm is no different from a small pond. He will leave sooner or later, perhaps even... this day will come very soon!"
"Given the relationship between our Four Symbols Sect and Ling Fan, given my personal relationship with Ling Fan, won't the Four Symbols Sect soar to new heights? Hahahaha!"
Wu Zhi laughed.
He looked like he had gone mad.
It was as if he wanted to vent all the past grievances through his laughter.
In the end, tears even flowed from his laughter.
He...
Had gambled correctly!
You are truly wise.
Wu Zhi!
...
It wasn't just Wu Zhi.
As the news gradually spread throughout the Upper Cang Realm.
Like a category twelve hurricane, all the powerhouses were shaken!
Maple Wood City.
Mu Renmin, Mu Yiyi, and Mu Qinxin, the father and daughters, were speechless after hearing the news.
Mu Qinxin slumped into her chair, her beautiful eyes filled with terror and disbelief.
Who would have thought that the gray-haired youth she had once looked down upon would have trampled upon the giants she regarded as gods?
Even.
There were three legendary Void Core Realm experts!
It was no exaggeration to say that the entire Upper Cang Realm could only tremble and grovel at this person's feet.
...
Just as the Upper Cang Realm was in an uproar over this news.
Ling Fan was busily preparing everything for Lan Xueyi's tribulation.
Lan Xueyi's second tribulation of the Nine Deaths Spirit Phoenix Body.
It could erupt at any moment!
