“So what?” Fen Juecheng frowned, his face slightly ferocious: “Should we release his two relatives immediately, and then go to Yun Che to beg for mercy? In this way, can we preserve the reputation of our Fentian Sect?”
“You!” Fen Duanhun raised his hand, and was about to slap Fen Juecheng, but seeing his miserable appearance with serious injuries and the resentment on his face, he did not slap him.
"The dignity of our entire sect was completely destroyed by Yun Che on the day of my wedding! Now, everyone in Cangfeng Nation is laughing at our Burning Heaven Sect! The thousand-year-old prestige of our Burning Heaven Sect has now become a foil to Yun Che's reputation! If the news that all seven elders died at the hands of Yun Che spreads out, we will become a complete joke! And under such circumstances, if we choose to be cautious and endure for the time being, even I, the young sect master, will look down on Burning Heaven Sect!" Fen Juecheng gritted his teeth and almost roared. He usually obeyed Fen Duanhun in everything, but today he refused to give in.
“Only by killing Yun Che can we regain our lost reputation and live up to the dead elders and ancestors! To this end, what’s wrong with us using any means necessary?! If father is afraid that this will tarnish his reputation, after killing Yun Che, he can just push everything onto my head, saying that it was me, Fen Juecheng, who secretly abducted Yun Che’s family, and that it had nothing to do with the other people in Fentian Sect.”
Fen Juecheng's words were more sinister than the last. He did this for the sake of the sect's reputation, which was only a small part. More importantly, of course, he wanted to avenge Yun Che's bone-cutting hatred! As Fen Juecheng's father, Fen Duanhun naturally knew what Fen Juecheng was really thinking, but his words hit the nail on the head... In the elders' council, he heard mostly such voices. If the vast majority of people did not agree to do so, how could he, as the sect master, have received the news only today.
Others may be impulsive and may do whatever it takes just because of their own emotions, but he cannot. As the leader of the Burning Heaven Sect, he must consider the overall situation and weigh the pros and cons in everything he does… But now that things have come to this, he has no choice but to use this opportunity to lure Yun Che here and kill him.
“Forget it.” Fen Duanhun lowered his hands and sighed helplessly, but his eyes were still incomparably cold and fierce: “From childhood to adulthood, you have almost never been disobeyed by anyone, let alone bullied. But you have been humiliated by Yun Che time and time again. I know you will never be willing to not take revenge. The hatred of killing the great elder and others must be avenged... I will let you do what you want this time, and I will personally arrange the formation to kill Yun Che... But only this time, if you dare to act on your own again in this way without considering the consequences, I will never forgive you!”
Fen Juecheng was naturally not able to withstand the power of Fen Duanhun, the Sect Master. His upper body trembled slightly, and he immediately said, “I hate Yun Che very much, and the Second Elder and others are also eager to kill Yun Che to avenge the First Elder, so… that’s why I did this without telling my father… Juecheng promises that there will never be such a thing again. After killing Yun Che, I acted on my own initiative, and I will let my father punish me.”
"Hmph!" Fen Duanhun snorted coldly and left with a flick of his sleeves. When he reached the door, he stopped and suddenly asked, "Why did you let Chen'er take people to do this? He has a strong temper and will never accept this method of coercing his family. How did you convince him?"
“Father may not know this.” Fen Juecheng said, “The reason why my third brother was unable to participate in the ranking battle was because of Yun Che. When he was in Cangfeng Xuanfu, Yun Che not only defeated him, but also trampled him under his feet… At that time, my second brother left the sect for a few years because of a verbal insult, and vowed to make my second brother pay the price, but Yun Che trampled on his dignity. The Pavilion Master Duan Cang, who was killed by Yun Che, was the person he respected the most in his life. His hatred for Yun Che is no less than mine! I promised him that when Yun Che was dying, I would let him humiliate him at will, and then kill him with my own hands, and he agreed… And the reason why I let my third brother go…” Fen Juecheng lowered his head: “Only if my third brother leaves the sect for a few days and doesn’t return, father will not suspect and find out anything in advance.”
"Hmph!" Fen Duanhun turned his head away, stopped talking, and left angrily. Ten breaths later, his deep voice penetrated every corner of Fentian Sect: "All the elders and pavilion masters, listen to my order! Gather in the meeting hall within half an hour. There is something important to discuss!"
“Old Nine! Where are those two people imprisoned?” Fen Juecheng shouted.
Outside the door, a man with a slightly hunched back walked in and whispered, "Xiao Lie is imprisoned in the lowest level of the Dragon Prison. As for the girl named Xiao Lingxi... she was imprisoned in Juechen Tian Pavilion by the Third Young Master."
“Juechen Tiange?” Fen Juecheng was stunned: “Are you sure it was Fen Juechen himself who gave the order… Oh, this is really interesting. Juechen Tiange has always been his forbidden place. Even if I go there casually, I will be scolded by him. He actually locked up a woman who was used as bait there.”
The person called Old Nine said in a cryptic voice: “Although Xiao Lingxi is Yun Che’s aunt, she looks younger than the Third Young Master. She is extremely beautiful and has a unique aura. The Third Young Master may have other thoughts about her.”
“Oh, really?” Fen Juecheng twisted his lips, and suddenly laughed darkly: “Come with me to Juechen Tiange… It will take at least seven or eight days for Yun Che to get the news. During this time, there are many things to do!”
"yes!"
The Burning Heaven Sect is located in the Burning Heaven Valley. The sect's headquarters is not a flat land, but an undulating mountain area, with high and low mountain walls interspersed in it. Juechen Tiange is the residence of Fen Juechen, and the reason why it is called "Juechen Tiange" is because it is built on the highest mountain wall in the Burning Heaven Sect, which is nearly thirty feet high.
This is Fen Juechen's residence, and sometimes it is used as a place for practicing martial arts, and no one is allowed to enter at will. Of course, if Fen Juecheng insists on entering, no one dares to stop him.
Fen Juechen was not in Juechen Tiange. Fen Juecheng entered Juechen Tiange smoothly. He pushed open the door and saw the girl standing at the edge of the wooden window, looking back with a panicked face.
When he saw this girl, Fen Juecheng's eyes suddenly lit up, revealing the lustful light of a hungry wolf.
The girl in front of him looked only seventeen or eighteen years old. Although the information he had obtained showed that Yun Che's aunt was not very old, he did not expect her to be so young. She was clearly younger than Yun Che. The girl had a beautiful face, rosy lips, a delicate nose, and a pair of eyes that were as bright and beautiful as diamonds, though full of panic. The long dress she wore was very ordinary and a little worn, but on her body, it gave off a sense of elegance and refinement.
Fen Juecheng stared at her, not wanting to look away for a long time. Liuyun Town, a place he didn't even care about, he never thought that such a place could breed such a beautiful girl who combined the spirit of heaven and earth. Compared with her delicate face, what made people more moved was her spirit that seemed to have never been tainted by the dirt of the world, and her tenderness and weakness that made people want to protect her, especially her beautiful eyes, like a pool of crystal spring water, clear and transparent, and very touching.
Fen Juecheng’s gaze switched between greed and lust. He kicked the door shut and walked towards Xiao Lingxi with a lewd smile on his face.
“You… who are you? What exactly are you going to do?” Xiao Lingxi felt a chill all over her body upon meeting Fen Juecheng’s gaze. She stepped back in panic, clutching the clothes on her chest tightly with her right hand.
“Oh, I forgot to introduce myself.” Fen Juecheng said with a smile: “I am the young master of Fentian Sect, Fen Juecheng. You must remember this name well. You, are Yun Che’s aunt? If I remember correctly, your name is Xiao Lingxi? There are not many people in this world whose names I, Fen Juecheng, can remember, but fortunately, not only did you not disappoint me, you also gave me a big surprise.”
As Fen Juecheng spoke, he laughed even more wantonly.
The Burning Heaven Sect was originally a force that existed only in legends for Xiao Lingxi, and the young master of the Burning Heaven Sect was even more of a legendary figure. She thought she would never have any contact with him in her life. But overnight, an unforeseen misfortune came, and she and her father were brought to this legendary huge sect... Along the way, she heard something intermittently from the conversations of several people from the Burning Heaven Sect. She vaguely knew that she and her father were brought here because of Yun Che... and Yun Che was the Xiao Che she missed day and night and was increasingly concerned about.
However, she still didn't understand what exactly happened.
While the entire Cangfeng was spreading and talking about Yun Che's name, Xiao Lingxi and Xiao Lie, who were imprisoned in the back mountain, knew nothing about it... nor could they know anything. Her impression of Yun Che still remained on that young man with crippled profound veins, weak and rumbling, who needed her protection and love, but who could resolutely stand in front of her when facing the oppression of the Xiao Sect.
“I… I don’t understand what you are saying.” Xiao Lingxi spent every second here in fear. Fen Juecheng’s eyes made her even more terrified. She shook her head and said, “Where is my father? Where is he? Have you done anything to him? What are you going to do!”
“What? Hehe, you don’t need to know this.” Fen Juecheng raised his bandaged left hand and casually moved his shoulder and elbow: “But you will soon know what I am going to do next...Hahahaha, I suddenly feel a little grateful to Yun Che. He actually let me find such a top-notch person in the world by accident. Before he comes, let me get some interest from you first!”
After saying this, Fen Juecheng laughed lewdly and pounced on Xiao Lingxi.
“Ah… don’t come over here!” Xiao Lingxi screamed and dodged to another corner, placing her hand on her heart: “Get… get away! If you dare to come one step closer… I will… I will cut off my own heart meridian!”
“Hahaha!” Fen Juecheng laughed wantonly: “Your profound strength is only at the pitiful initial stage of the Entering Profound Realm. You still want to cut off your own heart meridian in front of me? Then you can try it…”
Fen Juecheng laughed as he rushed towards Xiao Lingxi again… At this moment, there was a sudden loud noise from behind, and the tightly closed door was violently kicked open. Fen Juecheng turned around quickly and saw Fen Juechen standing at the door with a face as gloomy as water.
“Who let you in!” Fen Juechen stared at Fen Juecheng with his eyes, as if he was looking at his enemy.
“Oh, Third Brother, you’re back.” Fen Juecheng turned around and said with a smile, “I saw you weren’t here just now, so I came in by myself. You came back at the right time, and I’ll take this woman away.”
Fen Juechen's already gloomy face suddenly darkened again, and in his eyes, there was a hint of cold... murderous intent. He said coldly: "I brought her here! I only said to bring them here, but I didn't say to hand them over to you for disposal... Get out of here right now!"
“Oh?” Fen Juecheng narrowed his eyes: “Tsk tsk, Third Brother’s reaction is really a bit strange. Could it be that Third Brother has taken a fancy to this girl?”
“So what?” This time, not only Fen Juecheng’s eyes but also his aura were filled with murderous intent, as if he would attack immediately if Fen Juecheng didn’t leave.
“Oh!” Fen Juecheng smiled meaningfully, “So that’s how it is. Third brother has always been cold-hearted and has never been polite to women. I have always been worried that he might have a homosexual tendency. It seems that I, as an elder brother, am overly suspicious… Since this is the woman that Third brother likes, then of course I, as an elder brother, will give her up… But Third brother, don’t forget that she is Yun Che’s aunt!”
With a faint smile, Fen Juecheng walked out. When he stepped out of the door, the smile on his face disappeared, his face suddenly became gloomy, and a hint of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
Under normal circumstances, Fen Juechen would definitely not be his opponent. But at this moment, his left hand was seriously injured, his right arm could not move, and he still had internal injuries. If they fought, he might not be Fen Juechen's opponent. What's more, Fen Juechen was a person who would turn into a madman once he was at a disadvantage. He was definitely not willing to fight him when his injuries had not healed.
“Thank…thank you.” After Fen Juecheng left, Xiao Lingxi’s panic finally subsided a little. She stroked her chest and thanked Fen Juechen softly.
She and Xiao Lie were brought here by Fen Juechen, and all her misfortunes in the past few days were caused by him. But she still said "thank you" very sincerely because he drove Fen Juechen away just now... She was still so innocent and kind that it made people feel distressed.
Fen Juechen's heartstrings were gently plucked by an inexplicable feeling. He sat down at the table, moved his eyebrows, and after a long while, he suddenly said: "No need! Don't worry, you were brought here just to be a bait... No one will hurt you!"
“Bait? Is it to… deal with Xiao Che?” Xiao Lingxi suddenly became even more panicked. She hurriedly asked, “What on earth happened between you and Xiao Che? Why did you treat him like this? If…if he has done anything wrong to you, I…I will admit his mistakes to you and apologize to you on his behalf, okay? Please let him go…Xiao Che is a very kind person. He definitely didn’t mean to offend you.”
"Admit your mistakes? Apologize?" Fen Juechen gritted his teeth and said in a voice full of hatred: "How ridiculous! The mistakes he made must be paid with his life!"
Xiao Lingxi's heart suddenly tightened, and her whole heart was completely filled with fear... She was not afraid of her own situation, but the most important person who had always been imprinted in her heart. She didn't understand how he could have provoked the Burning Heaven Sect and had such a huge grudge that he had to repay with his life. She bit her lip and suddenly said angrily: "If you really have such a deep grudge, why don't you use an open and aboveboard method to resolve it! You Burning Heaven Sect are so powerful, in order to deal with Xiao Che, you actually... you actually kidnapped my father and me as bait and threat, you... you don't think it's despicable and shameless!"
Xiao Lingxi's words made Fen Juechen's face twitch violently. He clenched his hands and gritted his teeth, saying, "Yes... despicable... shameless... To do this is indeed despicable to the extreme! But... Yun Che trampled on my lifelong dignity and killed the person who was like half a father and half a master to me! With my current ability, it is impossible for me to defeat him... If I can avenge this, it doesn't matter if I am despicable and shameless once!!"
At this moment, Fen Juechen suddenly felt a tightness in his chest. A cold, sharp, and deeply resentful murderous aura came from nowhere, suffocating him suddenly... It was the first time in his life that he felt such a terrifying murderous aura. At this moment, a roar came down from the sky like a thunderbolt:
"You bastards from the Burning Heaven Sect! Get out here and die!!!"
The earth-shaking roar shook the entire Burning Heaven Sect, and even the entire Burning Heaven Valley. The overwhelming murderous aura completely enveloped the huge Burning Heaven Sect, making everyone in the Burning Heaven Sect feel as if they were falling into an icy cave, and their whole bodies shivered uncontrollably. Fen Juechen, Fen Juecheng who had not yet completely left the Juechen Heaven Pavilion, and Fen Duanhun who was discussing matters in the meeting hall, as well as the elders, all changed color.
They had abducted Xiao Lingxi and Xiao Lie in order to lure and force Yun Che to come.
But they never expected that Yun Che would come so quickly! It was so fast that they were almost caught off guard.
