Chapter 2336 Struggle
Space is stagnant.

Li Xing looked at the monk who suddenly appeared in front of him, his mind was already in a deep valley, but he forced himself to remain calm and spoke hurriedly.

"Senior, I didn't mean to disturb you. I hope you will forgive me!"

While he was speaking, Zhu Nan on the other side was already frightened silly.

Li Xing beside him was one of the only few Divine Emperors in Canghai Sect, and his strength was considered top-notch. But now this man was being humble, which made him realize instantly that the cultivator in front of him was by no means simple.

If he could make Li Xing, the Divine Emperor, bow down to him, it meant that he was at least a strong one among the Divine Emperors.

Shen Changqing glanced at the two of them, then his gaze fell on Li Xing again: "From what you said, this is the territory of Canghai Sect. It is a bit abrupt for me to retreat here."

"It's not abrupt... Senior, you can retreat here to give face to our Canghai Sect. As long as you like, you can stay here as long as you want."

Li Xing said with a flattering smile on his face.

Looking at the other person's appearance, Shen Changqing suddenly said faintly: "You know my identity, right?"

"I don't understand what you mean, senior?"

Li Xing was stunned and said with a confused look on his face.

He manages his facial expressions very well, and if you don't look carefully, you won't notice any clues at all.

But Shen Changqing was different. He kept his mind focused on Li Xing from beginning to end. Even the slightest change in the other party's expression could not be hidden from his perception.

and so.

Just a quick glance.

Shen Changqing caught the unnaturalness of the severe punishment.

"Forget it, since you don't want to tell me, let me search your soul and take a look myself—"

As soon as Shen Changqing said this, Li Xing was so frightened that he no longer cared about hiding and hurriedly begged for mercy.

"Master Shen, spare my life!"

"You really do know me."

There was a hint of coldness in Shen Changqing's eyes. He had heard what Li Xing had just said to Zhu Nan. Now after hearing what the other party said, he was completely certain of what he was thinking.

Hearing his words, Li Xing's face turned pale.

"Master Shen, I swear that I will never leak your information. If I break my promise, I will be struck by lightning and never be reborn!"

In front of Shen Changqing, Li Xing had no intention of resisting.

He was just an ordinary God Emperor, but the one in front of him was an unrivaled warrior who had killed several Half-Step God Lords and destroyed the entire City of Gods.

Nowadays, there are rumors that Shen Changqing's strength can be regarded as the strongest person below the God Lord, and among the many strong people below the God Lord, no one can be his opponent.

Even some veteran Half-Step Gods are the same.

and so.

Li Xing now just wants to survive.

As for reporting and getting the reward, we will talk about it after we survive.

If you lose your life, then everything else is meaningless.

Unfortunately.

Shen Changqing had no intention of wasting time talking to him. After all, the so-called Heavenly Oath had very poor restraining power. If he was going to plant the Seal of Despair, an ordinary God Emperor would not be worth wasting his energy on.

and so.

Shen Changqing ignored Li Xing's pleas for mercy and started searching his soul directly.

He grabbed the other person's head with his big hands, and his powerful spiritual power rushed directly into the other person's sea of ​​consciousness, and began to search for all of Li Xing's memories.

After a while.

Shen Changqing exuded power from his palm, killing Li Xing on the spot.

After killing Li Xing, Shen Changqing looked at Zhu Nan on the side, and without saying anything, he killed the other party with a wave of his hand.

"No wonder they were able to guess my identity, that's why!"

Shen Changqing muttered to himself.

Through Li Xing's memory, Shen Changqing understood what had happened during this period of time.

Ever since he left the Divine Capital ten years ago, the Chaos Empire has been doing its best to search for his whereabouts.

All cultivators in the entire Qingyun Province were registered, including those powerful hidden masters. All of them were pulled out and forcibly recorded in the register. No more independent cultivators of unknown origins were allowed to exist.

Even cultivators from outside Qingyun Province are treated equally as long as they enter here.

If someone deliberately avoids searches and refuses to register, the consequences could be imprisonment at the very least, or execution on the spot at the worst.

Ten years.

The entire Qingyun Province was turned upside down.

Shen Changqing could also see from this that the Chaos Empire was very determined to find him. Even if Li Xing had not come here today, he might be exposed one day.

Simultaneously.

Shen Changqing also witnessed the power of the overlord-level forces.

The reason why a hegemonic force can be called a hegemonic force is because it has the ability to suppress a state.

In the past, these overlord-level forces had always given other forces some face, but what happened in the Divine Capital now had made it impossible for the Chaos Empire to sit still any longer.

"Given the current situation in Qingyun Province, it is no longer effective to continue to follow the old ways of Guhuang. The emergence of a strange cultivator will definitely lead to a thorough investigation of his origins—"

After reading Li Xing's memories, Shen Changqing gave up some of his original ideas.

It is easy to change one's identity by stealing the truth, but the real difficulty lies in making one's origin perfect without any loopholes.

and.

From Li Xing's memory, the Chaos Empire knew that it had the ability to disguise itself and might abolish the identities of the original cultivators, so it ordered all forces to strictly investigate other cultivators, and any abnormalities found could be reported to the Empire.

Under the premise of sufficient rewards as temptation, the issuance of this order is also very smooth.

Just at this time.

The void shattered.

Several extremely powerful auras broke through the air, and five cultivators appeared directly in front of Shen Changqing.

Looking at the five people who arrived, Shen Changqing also understood their origins from Li Xing's memory.

The leader.

It was Xie Canghai, the leader of Canghai Sect, a powerful man at the third level of Divine Emperor, and also the strongest man in the entire Canghai Sect.

Then there is another Divine Emperor elder in Canghai Sect, whose cultivation level is almost the same as Li Xing's. Both of them are cultivators who have barely stepped into the first level of Divine Emperor.

Shen Changqing also felt a hint of old age from the other person, which showed that the other person was not young and would not have any great opportunities in the future. It was estimated that he would only remain at the first level of the Divine Emperor throughout his life and would hardly have the chance to go any further.

As for the remaining three people, they are also elders of Canghai Sect, but their cultivation has not reached the realm of Divine Emperor. They are all at the tenth level of Divine Lord.

"Who are you, sir? Is the death of Elder Li Xing of my Canghai Sect related to you?"

Xie Canghai's eyes were cold. While he was speaking, the other elders had already silently cut off Shen Changqing's retreat.

First, Li Xing died and the fortune of Canghai Sect was wailing. Then, a strange cultivator appeared in the territory of Canghai Sect. It is hard not to connect the two together.

not to mention.

There is still some power left here after Li Xing's death.

In the past, Xie Canghai would have taken action directly, but he couldn't tell Shen Changqing's strength, so he kept silent for the time being, wanting to find out the other party's background before making any plans.

Facing Xie Canghai's questioning, Shen Changqing remained calm, but a subtle power emerged from his body and his expression changed accordingly.

The moment he saw his face, Xie Canghai's pupils contracted violently, as if he had seen something terrifying. He turned around and ran away without saying a word.

The other monks who had their backs to Shen Changqing were a little confused for a moment.

at this time.

Shen Changqing stretched out his hand into the void and directly grabbed Xie Canghai back.

"Now that you're here, why leave so quickly?"

"metropolitan--"

When the other four elders saw their leader being captured so easily, their expressions changed drastically.

At this time, they finally saw clearly the face of the monk in front of them.

"He... He is Shen Changqing!!!"

It was not until now that several elders of Canghai Sect understood why their sect leader could run so fast and why he was easily caught by the other party.

It turns out that the person in front of him is Shen Changqing, the leader of the Tian Sect who has been wanted by the Chaos Empire.

In an instant.

The four elders seemed to have a tacit understanding and fled in four directions without looking back. Shen Changqing did not chase them. He just snapped his fingers and four sword energies pierced through the void, killing the four elders directly.

"boom--"

The Divine Emperor fell, and blood rained down from the sky.

In less than a breath, a Divine Emperor and three Divine Lord Tenth-Level elders died on the spot.

When Xie Canghai saw this scene, he was so frightened that he wanted to kneel down and beg for mercy.

If he knew that Li Xing died at the hands of Shen Changqing, Xie Canghai swore that he would never come here.

Even the Canghai Sect that he had worked so hard to establish could be abandoned directly.

after all.

No matter how important a sect is, it is not as important as one's own life.

In Xie Canghai's view, as long as he is alive, he is fully capable of rebuilding a new Canghai Sect.

and so.

When Shen Changqing killed the other elders and set his sights on himself, Xie Canghai forced an ugly smile on his face.

"Master Shen, I have no intention of becoming your enemy. As long as you can spare my life, I am willing to do anything for you!"

"anything?"

Shen Changqing's expression moved slightly.

Seeing that his expression seemed to have relaxed, Xie Canghai nodded hurriedly: "Yes, as long as Sect Master Shen can spare my life, I can do anything!"

"If I ask you to deal with the Dark Lord in the future, would you be willing?"

"this--"

Hearing Shen Changqing's words, Xie Canghai's face suddenly became distorted, as if he was struggling violently.

Survive!

faith!

The conflict between the two's beliefs caused Xie Canghai's aura to become much more disordered.

"I want to live... No, I cannot betray the Dark Lord... But if I don't betray the Dark Lord, I will die now... No... Lord... Dark Lord!!"

Xie Canghai's eyes suddenly turned red, and his aura became chaotic. Shen Changqing noticed the other party's abnormality and took the lead to leave.

And at the moment Shen Changqing left, Xie Canghai's body exploded and he died on the spot.
