Chapter 501: You... Didn't Kill Them All, Did You?

"Senior Chu, are you telling the truth? Three late Nascent Soul cultivators are dead?"

Even though Gong Yuyuan saw the two ancient treasures in Chu Ning's hands, he still couldn't help but ask for confirmation.

Chu Ning nodded. "They're all dead, their bodies and souls utterly destroyed."

"Three late Nascent Soul cultivators, their bodies and souls obliterated, not even their Nascent Souls escaped," murmured Yu Changge, the master of a sect and a Nascent Soul cultivator himself, still sounding a little dazed.

The next moment, as if he had suddenly thought of something, he turned to Chu Ning, his expression uncertain. "Junior Chu, you... didn't kill them all, did you?"

Chu Ning's response caused both Yu Changge and Gong Yuyuan to freeze.

"I guess so!" Chu Ning replied honestly.

To be honest, even Chu Ning was a little surprised that he had managed to kill three Nascent Soul cultivators in such a short time.

As for Cheng Qingmao, Chu Ning had taken the initiative to pursue and kill him since his Nascent Soul was already damaged and he had just possessed a new body. Chu Ning was confident he could handle him.

However, killing Yan Qichang and Gao Tianyi had been an accident.

Chu Ning had intended to avoid the two, but fate had other plans, and he ended up encountering them in the midst of their face-off.

When he used the Secret Art of Space Rending, his intention had been to help Yan Qichang and end the fight quickly so he could make his escape.

Unexpectedly, he ended up injuring both of them and also arousing their vigilance.

Seizing the opportunity when their treasure artifacts were entangled and they were extremely close to each other, Chu Ning unleashed the Chaos Fire Lotus, achieving a result he hadn't anticipated.

If not for the fact that they hadn't taken Chu Ning seriously and their own treasure artifacts were still entangled, preventing them from activating their defenses immediately, it would have been difficult for Chu Ning to injure two late Nascent Soul cultivators with a single move, given their proximity to each other within the blast radius of the Chaos Fire Lotus.

Seizing the advantage, Chu Ning naturally pressed on.

Thus, it could be said that Chu Ning's killing of Yan Qichang and Gao Tianyi, two genuine late Nascent Soul grand cultivators, was a combination of his calculations, his own prowess, and a fair bit of luck.

At this moment, Chu Ning briefly recounted the events to Yu Changge and Gong Yuyuan, explaining what had transpired.

However, he didn't go into great detail about the confrontations with the three cultivators, merely mentioning that he had taken advantage of the opportunity when the two late Nascent Soul grand cultivators were injured from their fight to strike and kill them.

Even though Chu Ning relayed the story calmly, the two listeners couldn't help but feel their hearts stir.

To be at the mid Nascent Soul stage and to have killed three late Nascent Soul grand cultivators, even if the two had been restraining each other during their fight, the outcome was still astonishing.

"It's a pity that this matter cannot be spread," Yu Changge sighed.

"If people were to know what happened, our Nine Splendor Sect's influence throughout the entire Western Alliance Continent would surely become known far and wide.

And Junior Chu would certainly cause all cultivators to reevaluate him; even late-stage grand cultivators would never dare to underestimate him again."

Yu Changge glanced at Chu Ning with a hint of regret.

Chu Ning smiled. Such fame wasn't that important to him. What mattered more were the three Nascent Soul cultivators he had killed and the treasures he had obtained.

He hadn't even checked Gao Tianyi and Yan Qichang's storage bags yet, but the Infant God Wood, the Ice Soul Treasure Mirror, and the Demon Shadow Spear were already significant gains.

"It's true that we shouldn't spread this news," Gong Yuyuan agreed. "As for the Heaven Extreme Alliance, it doesn't matter.

With two late Nascent Soul cultivators dying at your hands, they've lost their last grand cultivator, and I doubt they can cause much trouble.

But the Demon Path Alliance still has two late Nascent Soul grand cultivators, and their members are known for holding grudges and being extremely vicious.

If news of this gets out, it could bring endless trouble."

Chu Ning recalled something Gao Tianyi had said and continued, "However, we can't pretend that nothing happened.

According to Gao Tianyi, the late Nascent Soul grand cultivators of the Demon Path Alliance know that he came to our Nine Splendor Sect."

As soon as Yu Changge heard this, his expression turned solemn. After a moment's thought, he said, "In that case, we'll send someone to the Return to Origin Sect immediately.

We'll tell Qin Mengzhu that Gao Tianyi and Yan Qichang appeared at our Nine Splendor Sect and seemed to have ill intentions.

Then, they suddenly got into a big fight, and no one knows what happened to them afterward.

Ask Qin Mengzhu to issue a warning to the Demon Path Alliance on our behalf. I presume they won't be able to say much after that.

When they discover that Yan Qichang is indeed missing, they will naturally suspect that something unexpected happened during the fight.

At least they won't suspect us, because no one will believe that someone in the Western Alliance Continent could kill two late Nascent Soul cultivators at the same time."

Yu Changge's words had just fallen when Gong Yuquan immediately spoke up:

"This plan of yours, Sect Master, is indeed feasible. Even if the Demon Path Alliance has their suspicions, without evidence, they can't really do anything to us. As for the treasures Brother Chu has obtained, we must be careful not to let news of them slip out."

Chu Ning nodded. "I'll go myself. As for the treasures, rest assured. I have plenty of valuables, and I can keep these safe for now and bring them out when the time is right."

In fact, Chu Ning had quite a few valuables on him. He had even considered taking out a piece or two to give to the sect. However, upon further thought, he decided that it wouldn't be wise to openly use the Demon Shadow Lance and the Ice Soul Treasure Mirror in the Western Alliance Continent just yet. It would be better to keep them in his possession for the time being.

"This matter is best left to Elder Gong," said Yu Changge with a smile.

"Everyone knows why those late Nascent Soul cultivators appeared here. It would be more reasonable for you, Brother Chu, to remain in the sect at this time. As for Elder Gong, it's fitting for him to show his face since he just advanced to the Nascent Soul stage."

Upon hearing this, Chu Ning smiled and said, "Sect Master, you probably also want everyone to know that our Nine Splendor Sect has gained another Nascent Soul cultivator, don't you?"

At this, Yu Changge laughed heartily and said, "Indeed, I do intend to spread the news of your advancement to the mid Nascent Soul stage, Brother Chu, and now, with Elder Gong's advancement as well, it is only right that everyone knows of our sect's joy."

As he spoke, Yu Changge's eyes shone as he looked at Chu Ning. "Brother Chu, what I truly anticipate is the moment you reach the late Nascent Soul stage. With your abilities, if you were to become a late Nascent Soul grand cultivator, you would be able to suppress all cultivators at the same stage. By then, we wouldn't need to hide anything, and even if they found out, they would have to bow their heads in respect!"

Yu Changge paused again and added, "Now, we just have to hope that the late Nascent Soul cultivator from the Demon Path Alliance doesn't suspect anything. After all, you and the sect are safe and sound, while two late Nascent Soul grand cultivators have disappeared."

Hearing this, Chu Ning smiled and said, "If anyone else dares to come, I, Chu Ning, would like to face off against a late Nascent Soul grand cultivator directly. Let's see if their cultivation is more powerful or if my abilities are stronger."

Although Chu Ning's words were calm, both Yu Changge and Gong Yuquan felt their hearts fill with joy once again. They could tell that even if Chu Ning faced off against a late Nascent Soul grand cultivator directly, he probably wouldn't be at a disadvantage.

However, as they thought about it, they felt that everything seemed to make sense. Although Chu Ning hadn't shared the specific details of the battle, if he didn't have such capabilities, he wouldn't have been able to defeat two grand cultivators, even if they were injured.

With their plan decided, the three men parted ways. Chu Ning and Yu Changge returned to the Nine Splendor Sect, while Gong Yuquan went to the Return to Origin Sect to deliver the message.

When they arrived back at the sect, everyone was eagerly awaiting their return. While the disciples knew that Gong Yuquan had successfully formed his Nascent Soul, they were unaware of the previous appearance of the late Nascent Soul cultivators. However, with Chu Ning and the others leaving one after another, along with Yuan Zhuo's return and his mention of the Nascent Soul cultivators, the news had spread.

Nevertheless, Chu Ning and Yu Changge did not disclose the truth to the disciples of the Nine Splendor Sect. Since they intended to keep this matter hidden, there was no need to inform the disciples and risk spreading the news.

The story they told the disciples was similar to the one Gong Yuquan would deliver to the Return to Origin Sect. Upon hearing that two late Nascent Soul grand cultivators had appeared, the disciples were astonished. They immediately began warning their fellow disciples not to leave the sect grounds without permission during this period.

At Tianlan Peak, as soon as Cen Zikin returned, she pulled Chu Ning aside and said seriously, "Husband, it seems that those late Nascent Soul cultivators were targeting you because they feared your growth. You really shouldn't have gone out earlier. If those two hadn't coincidentally left due to their fight, you would've been in great danger. This won't do. Even though they're gone now, there's no guarantee they won't show up again. You should stay in the sect and cultivate during this time to avoid any more encounters."

Hearing Cen Zikin's concerned words, Chu Ning smiled and said, "It's fine for me to stay in the sect and cultivate, but encountering those two again is highly unlikely."

Cen Zikin looked at him with a puzzled expression and asked, "Why is that?"

Chu Ning smiled and said, "Because I've already killed them both!"

Cen Zikin's eyes widened in surprise. She was well aware of Chu Ning's strength, but hearing him casually mention that he had killed two late Nascent Soul cultivators still felt incredible.

Chu Ning didn't hide anything from Cen Zikin. He proceeded to tell her the detailed account of what had transpired and even showed her the treasures he had obtained from the slain cultivators.

Finally convinced, Cen Zikin's eyes shone with happiness. "You're becoming more and more powerful, husband. I must cultivate diligently and advance to the Nascent Soul stage soon as well."

With that, Cen Zikin returned to her cultivation room to practice.

Meanwhile, Chu Ning took out the two ancient treasures he had obtained from the slain late Nascent Soul cultivators, along with their storage bags.
