Chapter 37: The News Spreads Across the Capital — Luo Heaven Sect Truly Annihilated

Hearing the Primordial Spirit Enlightenment Tea Tree in his mind say that it was afraid, Chen Daoxuan's mouth twitched.

"You're just a tea tree, and you're afraid?"

"Forget it, forget it."

Unable to hold back, he muttered softly to himself. Nonetheless, he restrained his aura.

Without that terrifying aura, the Primordial Spirit Enlightenment Tea Tree finally stopped trembling.

Inwardly, it thought that its master was truly too terrifying. Just now, in its perception, its master was like an entire vast world, emanating an overwhelming presence!

Perhaps even experts at the Extinction Realm or even the Boundless Realm above could not sense the master's terrifying nature. But as a Primordial Spirit Enlightenment Tea Tree, it was inherently highly sensitive to all kinds of auras and Dao Rhythms. Facing that overwhelming sensation, it was utterly frightened!

"Strange, it's been a while without any new notifications. Why hasn't Yanran returned yet?"

Chen Daoxuan was puzzled. Logically, since the system had already notified him that Luo Heaven Sect was annihilated, Yanran should have used the teleportation formation disc to return directly.

Yet, she was nowhere to be seen.

But considering that Yanran had many trump cards given by him and that the system would alert him in case of danger, Chen Daoxuan decided not to dwell on it and resumed his nap.

Hmm... ever since breaking through to the Sea of Qi Realm, even sleep feels more restful. Not bad!

<+ >

After destroying the Luo Heaven Sect, Leng Yanran indeed hurried back immediately, but she didn't use the teleportation formation disc.

To her, the formation disc was a life-saving tool given by her master. Even though it seemed effortless for her master to create it, she was unwilling to waste it so easily.

Whatever her master gave her, she would save it if she could!

<+ >

As Leng Yanran departed, the news of Luo Heaven Sect's annihilation spread rapidly across the Northern Region!

As one of the four major sects, the destruction of Luo Heaven Sect and the fall of its Sect Master Luo Wu, a fifth-layer Extinction Realm cultivator, was a monumental event that couldn't be concealed. Moreover, Leng Yanran had no intention of keeping it a secret!

"What!?"

"Luo Heaven Sect, one of the four major sects, annihilated?"

"My friend, do you know what you're saying? I suggest you stop spreading such rumors. If Luo Heaven Sect hears of this, you'll be in big trouble!"

"Hear of it? The area around Luo Heaven Sect's mountain—no, the entire hundred miles around—is now occupied by dozens of terrifying Sky Monuments!"

"As for Luo Heaven Sect, it has already turned to dust!"

"Even Sect Master Luo Wu, a fifth-layer Extinction Realm expert, has fallen. How could there still be a Luo Heaven Sect?"

"You're crazy, absolutely crazy. Stay away from me! I don't want to get dragged into trouble when Luo Heaven Sect retaliates."

In a tavern in the capital of the Moro Kingdom, many people were discussing the matter, but most of them refused to believe the news.

In their view, Luo Heaven Sect was one of the strongest forces in the Northern Region. How could it be wiped out in a single day?

It must be another rumor, like the one about half a month ago claiming that Luo Heaven Sect would be destroyed within half a month.

But as more cultivators who had personally witnessed the battle near Luo Heaven Sect returned to the Moro Kingdom's capital, everyone was shocked!

"Luo Heaven Sect is indeed no more..."

"Not a single survivor was left. If I hadn't knelt fast enough, I might have been blasted to bits by that Demon Leng... no, Fairy Leng!"

"By the way, a piece of advice for everyone: never provoke the Leng family in this city again. They're not to be trifled with!"

"There's nothing more I can say. In any case, step aside. I need to buy some new pants. After that trip to Luo Heaven Sect, all my pants were ruined..."

After hearing numerous powerful individuals who had witnessed the destruction of Luo Heaven Sect confirm the news, the people in the city finally began to accept reality.

After all, some of those witnesses were cultivators at the Profound Sky Realm. They wouldn't stoop to lying, and spreading false rumors would have invited retaliation from Luo Heaven Sect—if it still existed!

<+ >

Meanwhile, in the royal palace, Emperor Wu Feiyang of the Moro Kingdom received a report from his subordinates.

As someone deeply concerned about the matter, Wu Feiyang had dispatched several men to investigate near Luo Heaven Sect two days ago to confirm whether the sect would truly face annihilation.

"What!"

"That mysterious expert behind Leng Yanran didn't even make an appearance? Leng Yanran went alone and wiped out the Luo Heaven Sect?"

"A barrier that spans five hundred miles and can't be breached even by an Extinction Realm expert?"

"She destroyed Luo Heaven Sect's protective formation almost entirely with just a single strike?"

"What? She unleashed that same attack thirty times in a row?"

"Even Luo Wu, a fifth-layer Extinction Realm cultivator, was killed in a single blow? And Sect Master Yang Chun only survived by begging for mercy?"

"Ah..."

As his subordinates detailed every step of the event, Wu Feiyang found himself repeatedly stunned, his jaw dropping over and over.

Every piece of information sounded unbelievable.

He had initially assumed the mysterious expert behind Leng Yanran would personally take action, but the person didn't even show up!

"Send out an official decree: From this day forward, the Leng family's status in the Moro Kingdom is equal to the royal family!"

"Grant the Leng family all privileges. No matter their demands, fulfill them!"

After a long time, Wu Feiyang finally calmed down enough to issue instructions to his subordinates.

"Understood, Your Majesty. I will see to it immediately!"

After the subordinate departed, Wu Feiyang tried to pick up his teacup to calm his nerves, only to realize his arm was trembling uncontrollably, spilling most of the tea.

"Too terrifying. What kind of being stands behind her?"

"We must never offend such a person. Even if we can't curry favor with them, we must never let them feel dissatisfied!"

<+ >

Back at the Leng household, Leng Zhan, who had witnessed Luo Heaven Sect's destruction firsthand, chose to remain silent about the events upon his return.

When envoys from the royal family arrived to inform the Leng family of their newfound privileges, he readily accepted. On that very day, other noble families in the capital swarmed to visit the Leng household.

Families who had previously held grudges against the Leng family, such as the Li and Wang families, brought lavish gifts in hopes of earning forgiveness.

Leng Zhan accepted all the offerings, and with this turn of events, the Leng family naturally rose to become the most powerful family in the Moro Kingdom.

All of this was thanks to Leng Yanran.

Yet Leng Zhan sighed inwardly. He knew that from this day forward, the Leng family would no longer be able to maintain any real connection with Leng Yanran.

Leng Yanran had repaid her debts to the Leng family.

She was not truly a member of the Leng family; she had merely been raised by them. Now, the benefits she had brought to the family far exceeded what they had given her in return.

<+ >

Jin Ding Sect

Sect Master Yang Chun, covered in blood that he hadn't even had time to wash off, fled back to his sect in a state of utter panic.
