Song Chen paused, listening intently.
It was Huang Li talking to someone else.
He gathered up the banana leaves, took a few more steps along the tree canopy, and finally heard clearly.
It turned out to be Huang Li and Li Wantian!
Song Chen frowned. In the original novel, "The Peerless Demon of Immortal Cultivation," Huang Li and Li Wantian were husband and wife.
After meeting Mu Feng, Li Wantian fell in love with someone else and massacred tens of thousands of people from the Huang family in Lingnan.
Huang Li also died tragically at Wanjian Manor.
Now that the two have met again, will Huang Li fall in love with Li Wantian again?
He listened carefully.
Li Wantian and Huang Li were not at each other's throats.
"Sister Li, I will forgive and forget about your previous elopement."
My only hope is that after the Immortal Realm Grand Competition, I can personally pay a visit to the Huang family of Lingnan and mend the relationship between our two families.
"I'm not the leader of the Huang family from Lingnan this time. You've probably come to the wrong person."
"No matter what, you are the head of the family's daughter and the only heir of the Huang family."
...
The conversation between the two was coming to an end, and Song Chen only caught the gist of it.
However, he noticed something was wrong.
Zhao Ziyi mentioned this when he talked about the original work before.
Li Wantian wanted to clear his name of his past.
The Huang family in Lingnan set up a life-annihilation formation.
Tens of thousands of members of the Huang family in Lingnan died.
But this Li Wantian is clearly a weapon refiner!
When did he learn to set up formations?
In Song Chen's mind, Li Wantian was nothing more than a good-for-nothing dressed in gold.
It's impossible for someone to be as proficient in multiple Taoist arts as he is.
Such a powerful formation as the Annihilation Formation should not be something that Li Wantian could master.
Unless... someone gave Li Wantian the array plate!
Thinking of this possibility, Song Chen narrowed his eyes slightly.
The array plate is difficult to make, and the materials required are also very expensive.
He made ten level-three life-saving array plates for Ziyi, spending tens of thousands of gold.
If the Annihilation Array is also composed of array plates, it would probably require even more materials and be more expensive.
The elaborate process of creating the array plate is by no means a simple cleansing of the past.
The Huang family of Lingnan also has a Nascent Soul cultivator in charge.
Such a swift and decisive annihilation of a clan can probably only be explained by the actions of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
After Song Chen finished thinking, he came back to his senses and heard the sounds of fighting coming from afar.
He stared intently and saw that Li Wantian and Huang Li had actually started fighting.
And there was another person beside Li Wantian, who was obviously Mu Feng in pink!
I ran into two enemies at once!
Song Chen was no longer in a hurry to find Zhao Ziyi. Now that all his enemies were here, Zhao Ziyi was safe.
A thought struck him, and while the three were fighting, he quickly set up array flags around them.
——
Mu Feng sneered, stepped on Huang Li's face, and ground his foot into it forcefully.
"Do you want to fight again? Two against one, you have no chance of winning."
Huang Li's face was full of anger: "What kind of skill is a sneak attack! If you and Li Wantian hadn't suddenly ambushed me, I wouldn't have been defeated!"
She was walking and talking with Li Wantian when, in the next second, Li Wantian struck her swiftly, piercing her shoulder.
Fortunately, the tenth-grade magic robe given to her by Song Chen prevented it from being completely shattered.
That Li Wantian is truly ruthless!
With her shoulder injured, she couldn't hold the sword, and Mu Feng suddenly appeared again.
In a two-on-one situation, she was defeated after several exchanges.
Li Wantian's face was full of arrogant smiles, "Do you really think that I have any feelings for you? I'm only talking to you to wait for Mu Feng!"
Mu Feng maintained his aloof demeanor and said coldly:
"Hand over the points, or become our inside man to lure Zhao Ziyi and Song Chen here."
"Hmph! I can give you points, but trying to turn me against you? No way!"
After Huang Li finished speaking, she tried to crush the random teleportation talisman with her left hand to escape.
But the next moment, she felt a sharp pain in her left hand, and her whole body trembled uncontrollably from the pain.
A long sword was cleanly and swiftly plunged into her left hand.
The tendons in his hand were severed instantly.
"Ah!" Huang Li cried out in pain.
Li Wantian smiled sinisterly:
"You can't kill people in Zhuoyangchuan, but you can hurt them without hesitation. Tell me, if all your bones and tendons were broken, could you still participate in this competition?"
“Li Wantian!” Huang Li’s eyes were filled with hatred.
**
Outside the stadium.
On a huge platform.
The Nascent Soul cultivator from the Huang family of Lingnan also slammed his fist on the table and stood up.
"That's outrageous!"
Taking advantage of their past relationship, Li Wantian actually plotted against Huang Li!
Sun Meng clenched her fists angrily, hoping only that Huang Li would be alright.
Suddenly, he saw a cultivator from the Immortal River Garden, number twenty-nine, circling around Huang Li on the map.
Who is this person?
Sun Meng was even more furious. As fellow cultivators from the academy, this person had shown no reaction whatsoever when he saw her being beaten!
What are you waiting for! Hurry up and go to the rescue!
Sun Meng's heart was clenched with tension.
The surrounding Nascent Soul cultivators also turned their gazes over.
The battle scenes at Langya Academy were simply too bloody.
The Nascent Soul cultivators all frowned upon seeing this.
In battles against other factions, if you are defeated, you can escape by agreeing to give points.
But Langya Academy's offer to give points wasn't enough; they also wanted to sever the tendons in other people's hands, which was far too cruel.
"This is too cruel. Langya Academy is still so unscrupulous."
"But I didn't expect that Wanjian Manor would be like this too."
"This year, it seems these three forces will once again take the top three spots. They're too strong."
"Xianheyuan boasted a lot before the competition, but now it seems they're just like that."
"This Huang Li is supposed to be the Golden Core stage leader of the Immortal River Garden! How come he's so weak?"
"Oh dear, this is ridiculous!"
Hearing the mockery from the crowd, Sun Meng felt indignant.
Her eyes were fixed on the water curtain, hoping that Huang Li could escape successfully.
Suddenly, her eyes narrowed. Who was that?!
The battlefield is ever-changing.
On the map, the cultivators from Xianheyuan, who had been hovering around Huang Li, suddenly rushed towards the battlefield.
Huang Li looked closely and was overjoyed – it was Song Chen!
Pineapples are saved!
The elders of Xianheyuan exchanged glances, their eyes filled with excitement.
Song Chen is here!
In an instant, the elders of Xianhe Garden were filled with hope.
**
In the dense forest.
After Song Chen finished setting up the grand formation, he heard Huang Li's mournful screams.
He rushed out instantly.
With a tap of his storage bag, a stack of talismans instantly appeared in his hand.
"burst."
Song Chen uttered a soft phrase, and spiritual energy surged, causing dozens of talismans to ignite and rush towards Li Wantian.
The invisibility talisman on his body also lost its effect and turned to ashes.
With their spiritual energy exposed, Li Wantian and Mu Feng also discovered Song Chen's presence.
Li Wantian turned around instantly and looked in Song Chen's direction:
"Who is it!"
His answer was a surge of spiritual energy.
Song Chen followed closely behind, thrusting his spirit sword fiercely into Li Wantian's palm.
"ah!"
Hearing Li Wantian's shout, Song Chen did not stop his attack.
Li Wantian is a Golden Core cultivator; he's not so easily defeated.
He drank the spiritual wine to replenish his spiritual energy, made a hand seal, and instantly released the trapping formation.
Just as Mu Feng was about to make a move, he was firmly trapped in place.
Mu Feng tried to move, but his movements were extremely slow, as if he had fallen into a muddy swamp and could not exert any strength.
Seeing that only Li Wantian remained, Song Chen no longer hesitated.
Unleash the killing formation, the bewitching formation, the poison formation—all of them!
Taking advantage of Li Wantian's momentary distraction, Song Chen drew his longsword and delivered several powerful blows to Li Wantian.
Immediately, blood gushed from Li Wantian's mouth.
