"Speak clearly, or I'll kill you right here." Wen Tian Jun remained seated, not rising from his place.
However, anyone could feel the intense fury radiating from him.
Mo Xuan and Lin Ce knelt nearby, trembling in fear, their backs drenched in sweat. They buried their heads deeply into the ground, not daring to make a sound.
Jian Chen swallowed hard, feeling his throat dry. His voice trembled as he said, "Reporting to the Sect Master, not long ago, I received a message from Mo Xuan and Lin Ce. They said they found Ye Jiuchong's family."
"But within Ye Jiuchong's family, there is likely a master at the peak of Tribulation stage cultivation. I thought that with my Great Accomplishment Period cultivation, it would be sufficient."
"However... I never expected the opponent's strength to far exceed my imagination! That is why I was unable to bring back the Ascension Token." After speaking, Jian Chen cautiously glanced at Wen Tian Jun sitting above him.
Then he once again pressed his head deeply to the ground and trembled as he said, "Sect Master, every word I say is true. If you do not believe me, you can ask Mo Xuan and Lin Ce."
Wen Tian Jun cast a cold glance at Jian Chen before shifting his gaze to Mo Xuan and Lin Ce.
Feeling Wen Tian Jun's piercing gaze, Mo Xuan and Lin Ce shuddered and quickly stammered, "Reporting to the Sect Master, we can testify that Elder Jian Chen speaks nothing but the truth."
"Good. Since that's the case, tell me where Ye Jiuchong's family is located," Wen Tian Jun said in a calm tone.
"Ha...!!"
Jian Chen, Mo Xuan, and Lin Ce all sighed in relief simultaneously.
Then Jian Chen replied, "Reporting to the Sect Master, Ye Jiuchong's family is located in Heavenly River Mansion."
“Heavenly River Mansion?”
Wen Tian Jun's gaze swept over the three, revealing a hint of mockery as he said lightly, “In such a small place, there are actually so many experts?”
Upon hearing this, Jian Chen, Mo Xuan, and Lin Ce's expressions changed dramatically.
It was clear that Wen Tian Jun held a skeptical attitude towards their words.
Jian Chen quickly explained, “Sect Leader, every word I say is true. When I went there, I also couldn't believe that such experts would exist in such a tiny place, but it is indeed the case!”
“Yes, please trust us, Sect Leader. We can both vouch for this matter,” Mo Xuan and Lin Ce hurriedly chimed in.
“Enough!”
Wen Tian Jun waved his hand and said, “Then tell me about his Cultivation.”
“Cultivation…”
Upon hearing this, Jian Chen's expression changed once more.
From the fluctuations of aura emanating from Ye Fan, he could tell that Ye Fan initially was only at the early stage of Tribulation.
However, during their battle, he had broken through to the mid-stage of Tribulation.
But... how could he tell Wen Tian Jun that the opponent was only at the mid-Tribulation stage of cultivation?
Wouldn't that just make him, a master in the Great Accomplishment Period, look like a fool?
If that were the case, wouldn't Wen Tian Jun just slap him to death?
"What? You can't say anything?" Wen Tian Jun glared fiercely at Jian Chen, then turned his gaze back to Mo Xuan and Lin Ce.
Mo Xuan and Lin Ce were startled and quickly blurted out, "He’s at the early Tribulation stage!"
"What did you say?" Wen Tian Jun's eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of sharpness emanating from him.
"No, it seems he has broken through to the mid-Tribulation stage!" Mo Xuan and Lin Ce panicked and quickly added.
"Useless fools, what good are you to our sect?" Wen Tian Jun shouted, and instantly, a murderous aura filled the entire Wen Tian Temple.
At that moment, Jian Chen felt like dying. If he weren't in Wen Tian Temple right now, he would have wanted to slap Mo Xuan and Lin Ce, those two idiots, to death.
Driven by a strong instinct for survival, Jian Chen suddenly had a flash of inspiration and exclaimed, "Sect Master, Sect Master! The opponent must have used some secret technique to hide his cultivation. Otherwise, how could someone at the mid-Tribulation stage possibly defeat me?"
"Sect Master, I am at the Great Accomplishment Period of cultivation! How could I possibly lose to someone at the Tribulation stage?"
The more Jian Chen spoke, the more reasonable it sounded, even convincing himself. If the opponent wasn't using a secret technique to conceal his cultivation, how could he be so terrifying?
Yes, it must be that way.
Thinking of this, Jian Chen spoke with conviction, "Sect Master, that person is extremely despicable. Clearly, his cultivation is very high and his strength formidable, yet he pretends to be weak. Not only does he use secret methods to conceal his cultivation, but he also shamelessly transforms into a seven or eight-year-old child to mislead others and make them underestimate him. It's simply outrageous."
Seeing Jian Chen's fervent expression filled with indignation, Mo Xuan, who was standing nearby, couldn't help but be taken aback. "Elder Jian Chen, that's not right! After Lin and I went to Heavenly River Mansion, we investigated thoroughly. Ye Fan is indeed only eight years old; he couldn't have changed!"
Lin Ce chimed in, "That's right. He is the son of the current Ye Family head, Ye Qiancheng. There's no way that's false; my senior brother and I have looked into it carefully—he really is eight years old this year."
"You're both talking nonsense!" Jian Chen was furious and shot a fierce glare at Mo Xuan and Lin Ce, wishing he could slap them both into silence.
Damn it, were these two idiots intentionally trying to go against him or were they just brainless?
"Shut up!"
Wen Tian Jun frowned deeply and snorted coldly.
Instantly, Jian Chen and the others fell silent, not daring to argue further.
With a sharp gaze sweeping over the group, Wen Tian Jun directly commanded, "Stone Cold, come out of seclusion and report to Wen Tian Temple immediately. I have important matters for you to attend to."
His voice carried spiritual power that echoed throughout Heavenly Heart Island.
In a palace on Heavenly Heart Island, Stone Cold, who was in seclusion, heard the Sect Master's summons and did not hesitate. He immediately rose and transformed into a blur as he left.
Soon after, Stone Cold, dressed in a black robe, stepped into Wen Tian Temple from outside.
"Subordinate Stone Cold pays respects to the Sect Master."
Entering Wen Tian Temple, Stone Cold clasped his hands together and bowed respectfully to Wen Tian Jun, saying, "I am unaware of the reason for the Sect Master's summons. What orders do you have for me?"
Wen Tian Jun cast a cold gaze upon Jian Chen, Mo Xuan, and Lin Ce, speaking in an icy tone, "This Sect Master does not care whether the opponent is an eight-year-old child or a wolf in sheep's clothing. I will give you three another chance. You three will guide Elder Shi once more. If you fail to retrieve the Ascension Token... hmph."
Wen Tian Jun then turned his indifferent gaze to Stone Cold, stating coldly, "Then you shall eliminate these three useless ones on my behalf."
"Understood, Sect Master." Stone Cold maintained a calm facade, bowing deeply to Wen Tian Jun, though internally he was deeply shocked.
The Ascension Token—it was indeed the Ascension Token!
A sense of gravity weighed heavily on Stone Cold's heart.
He understood clearly that while Wen Tian Jun's words were directed at Jian Chen and the others, they were also meant for him.
The Ascension Token was of utmost importance; if they failed to retrieve it this time...
Not only would Jian Chen and the others face death, but even he himself... the consequences would be equally dire!
"Go! They will lead you," commanded Wen Tian Jun.
"Yes, Sect Master." Without saying more, Stone Cold bowed again and glanced at Jian Chen and the others before stepping out of Wen Tian Temple.
