Chapter 752: Sun Xiayang's Incident [Extra Chapter by the Alliance Leader]
"In the Two Thousand Li Mountain Forest east of Tricounty City, a great battle erupted!"
Dong Fang San San spoke solemnly, "Fifteen mountains were shattered, and a Gun Intent went out of control, tearing through three hundred li and killing two hundred thousand people in the nearest HePu City."
"In this battle, the city walls of HePu City were cracked, and almost all the houses within were destroyed; countless large cracks appeared on the ground..."
Xue Fu Xiao's expression changed, and he stood up abruptly, "Gun Intent?"
"Yes, Gun Intent."
"Out of control?"
"You heard right."
Xue Fu Xiao became anxious, "In the world today, the only person capable of emitting such a Gun Intent is Sun Xiayang! For Sun Xiayang to push his Gun Intent to the point of losing control, the battle situation must have reached a critical stage! I doubt Rui Qian Shan can handle this alone."
Dong Fang San San narrowed her eyes, "How do you know I sent Rui Qian Shan?"
"...
He just sent me a message, acting all high and mighty!
Xue Fu Xiao sighed, "But for Sun Xiayang to fight to such an extent, his opponent must be formidable! They must have been surrounded, and the combined strength of the attackers definitely surpasses Sun Xiayang! Otherwise, Sun Xiayang's Gun Intent would never have gone out of control."
Xue Fu Xiao's understanding of Sun Xiayang was unparalleled.
What he said was mostly fact, as Dong Fang San San could confirm. The only uncertainty was... who made the move!
"It could be the Shadow Viper Sect, or the combined forces of the Heavenly Palace and the Netherworld..."
Dong Fang San San frowned, "Or perhaps it's a joint effort by all three forces to surround and suppress Sun Xiayang!"
"That's likely the case!"
Xue Fu Xiao frowned and stood up, "This is a major event!"
"Let's wait for more news."
Dong Fang San San looked at her communication jade and said calmly, "Currently, only the Shadow Viper Sect can prevent me from getting information. If there's no news after an hour, then it's the Shadow Viper Sect."
Xue Fu Xiao fell silent.
A moment later, Dong Fang San San's communication jade continuously received messages.
"Sun Xiayang was besieged outside Tricounty City by over sixty peak experts and suffered severe injuries before escaping."
"The top forces of the Heavenly Palace collectively left, possibly for a significant event."
"Twelve experts from the Netherworld joined forces with the Faceless Tower to intercept Sun Xiayang, but failed."
"Three vice leaders of the Only Righteous Sect, including the Mad Halberd and Hundred Battle Saber, crossed the border."
Dong Fang San San quickly deduced what had happened.
"The Heavenly Palace, Netherworld, and Faceless Tower deployed all their experts to set up an ambush outside Tricounty City to intercept Sun Xiayang!"
Dong Fang San San sighed, "Unfortunately, they didn't succeed, and Sun Xiayang escaped with severe injuries."
Xue Fu Xiao's brows furrowed, "It seems Old Sun fought fiercely... What were the results? Sun Xiayang wouldn't have been injured for no reason. How many casualties did the three forces suffer?"
"We'll have to wait for news from Rui Qian Shan."
Dong Fang San San sighed lightly, "My information comes from the Heavenly Palace, Netherworld, and the Only Righteous Sect, all of which are sources, but not from the actual scene."
"That's true; no one at the scene would send me messages."
Xue Fu Xiao smiled, then frowned, "Why would the Heavenly Palace and Netherworld want to kill Sun Xiayang? It doesn't make much sense."
"After the Yin-Yang World, Sun Xiayang killed a top figure from the Heavenly Palace and humiliated Emperor Ziwei."
Dong Fang San San said, "And Sun Xiayang has always looked down on the Heavenly Palace and Netherworld... that should be a reason. But what I'm considering now is the Faceless Tower."
"What about it?"
"I've never been able to find the Faceless Tower."
Dong Fang San San spoke calmly, "And the strength the Faceless Tower has shown in the past shouldn't be enough to participate in surrounding Sun Xiayang... but they did this time."
"And they've always been mysterious. Now I'm considering the relationship between the Shadow Viper Sect and the Faceless Tower. If the Faceless Tower was replaced by the Shadow Viper Sect, or if the Faceless Tower directly belonged to the Shadow Viper Sect, then this matter would make sense."
Dong Fang San San said with furrowed brows.
Dong Fang San San continuously deduced the situation from the clues, and at this juncture, Xue Fu Xiao couldn't interject. He could only put on a 'I understand everything you're saying' expression and sat upright.
Time passed.
Yan Xifeng proactively sent a message, "The gate hasn't opened. It's been ninety hours!"
Yan Xifeng's message contained an undeniable sense of excitement!
Ninety hours had passed.
Although the remaining ten hours were the most brutal stage, it also indicated that the possibility of holding out for a hundred hours had reached ninety percent!
Xue Fu Xiao hurriedly held up the communication jade in front of Dong Fang San San, "It's been ninety hours!"
Dong Fang San San looked at the message and finally showed a faint smile, saying something rare, "Not bad."
Rui Qian Shan's Snow Condensation Sword also sent news, "The mountains here have been shattered, and two volcanic veins were blasted and split open. There are traces of blood and the scent of death, indicating that some experts have fallen."
"Sun Xiayang's Gun Intent went out of control three times, once in the mountains, once in the forest, and once in the city."
"There's the special cultivation technique aura of the Heavenly Palace and Netherworld."
"Nine Brother, any instructions? Should I take the opportunity to chase and kill Sun Xiayang?
Dong Fang San San frowned, replying without hesitation, "Sun Xiayang must not die under any circumstances!"
"Which of them do you think you can catch up to?"
Rui Qian Shan's message arrived: "The Heavenly Palace's aura is more noticeable."
"Chase after them and ask what's going on. Tell them I sent you to inquire."
Dong Fang San San immediately ordered, "If they refuse to answer, engage them in battle!"
"Yes!"
Snow Condensing Sword's spirit lifted, and her body transformed into a sword beam, shooting out with a whoosh.
Dong Fang San San furrowed her brows, "Sun Xiayang escaped without opening the Bone Teleport Gate."
Xue Fu Xiao's face turned serious, "He couldn't even open the Bone Teleport Gate? Is it a mental trauma?"
Both of them understood this point.
Sun Xiayang's Bone Teleport Gate required mental and soul power to activate, allowing both offensive and defensive capabilities. But this time, it wasn't activated, indicating that someone had specifically targeted and attacked his mental power.
This was a serious matter.
"It seems the Shadow Viper Sect is much stronger than I imagined."
Dong Fang San San said.
"Why didn't you mention the Heavenly Palace and the Netherworld?" Xue Fu Xiao asked, finding it strange that Dong Fang San San had omitted the obvious initiators of the conflict.
"Sun Xiayang's battle of fame involved the high-level battle forces of the Heavenly Palace and the Netherworld."
Dong Fang San San replied calmly, "Did you forget?"
"Oh!"
Xue Fu Xiao rubbed his brows, realizing he had indeed forgotten about this matter.
He couldn't help but admire Dong Fang San San's ability to consider all the information together at any given moment.
This was not something an ordinary person could do.
However, Xue Fu Xiao didn't feel discouraged. It was normal for San San to think of something he hadn't considered.
I'm not denying my foolishness...
Two hours later, Snow Condensing Sword sent a message: "Seventy-two peak experts from the Heavenly Palace and the Faceless Tower plotted a siege on Sun Xiayang, with the Heavenly Palace pulling the strings, the Faceless Tower implementing the trap, and the Netherworld assisting. At a critical moment, eighteen experts emerged to join the siege, resulting in nine deaths, twenty-six severe injuries, and everyone else sustaining minor injuries. The Gun Intent couldn't be dispelled, so they had to return and cultivate to alleviate it. Sun Xiayang's Bone Gun's killing intent exploded nine hundred and ninety-nine times, with three instances of losing control."
"But there was an unexpected phenomenon. The eighteen experts who appeared later suddenly emitted an extreme stench during the siege. It's said that all the participants are now enveloped in a foul odor, and the group from the Heavenly Palace I caught up with are using Spirit Qi to wrap the stench as they travel. However, Emperor Ziwei's arm was severed by Sun Xiayang's Gun Intent, and the stench emanating from the arm has already caused many people to faint in its path..."
"I was also affected by the stench. I can't bear it and can't fight; it's too foul..."
From these words, one could imagine Snow Condensing Sword sending the message while frowning.
"It's said that another group of experts is chasing after Sun Xiayang..."
"Indeed, the Shadow Viper Sect is involved."
Xue Fu Xiao tilted his head and looked at Dong Fang San San's communication jade, clicking his tongue, "Old Sun must have taken a severe beating this time."
There was a hint of schadenfreude in his words, "But these people clearly made a miscalculation. How could they use a siege to deal with Old Sun? They should have used a relay battle, with eight or ninety experts taking turns to exhaust him. A siege... tsk tsk, Old Sun is least afraid of sieges."
"It's indeed the Shadow Viper Sect..."
Dong Fang San San frowned, her brows furrowed with worry.
She was no longer thinking about Sun Xiayang's situation.
Her focus shifted to the Shadow Viper Sect, but she still said, "Keep an eye on Yan Xifeng's movements and inform me immediately if there's any news."
After this reminder, her attention returned to considering the Shadow Viper Sect.
This showed that in Dong Fang San San's mind, Fang Che's situation took precedence over Sun Xiayang, the Shadow Viper Sect, and the Only Righteous Sect.
"The Shadow Viper Sect has been unusually active lately."
"They ambushed you, ambushed Sun Wutian, and now they're involved in ambushing Sun Xiayang."
"For so many years before this, we never heard of them, but recently they've been frequently active, and when they strike, it's always a grand move."
"This is very abnormal."
Dong Fang San San walked to the window with her hands behind her back, gazing at the sky, "For this anomaly, I have only one speculation."
"What speculation?"
"Beyond Heaven, something we don't know has already occurred."
Dong Fang San San calmly said, "The Shadow Viper Sect must have received some kind of revelation, which is why they're acting out of character. But what I find hard to understand is that the Only Righteous Sect hasn't shown any unusual activity."
"What's the reason for this? Logically... if the Shadow Viper Sect has a deity, the Only Righteous Sect's Heavenly Scorpion God should be stronger than the Shadow Viper Sect's deity. Otherwise, we should be fighting for dominance with the Shadow Viper Sect."
"The fact that the Shadow Viper Sect has been hesitant to reveal itself indicates that they have concerns. If they have concerns, it's not like the Heavenly Scorpion God, which is quite obvious."
"Now they suddenly emerge, and the Heavenly Scorpion God remains silent. Could it be that the Shadow Viper Sect wants to divide the world into three?"
Dong Fang San San furrowed her brows in deep thought, "A three-way stalemate? Is that why they're assassinating Sun Xiayang, Sun Wutian, and you?"
"To eliminate high-level battle forces?"
"Or to test the high-level battle forces?"
