Xiao Xiaodong quickly installed the spiritual stones, and they boarded the teleportation array, rushing to the other side. As soon as they were sent out, Xiao Jinting quickly destroyed the teleportation array. Once the array on one end was broken, the other end could not be used.
Chen Xu looked at Xiao Jinting’s tense face and asked, “Mr. Xiao, what happened just now?”
Xiao Jinting frowned and said, “It seems to be Yin Ghost Sect. There is a Nascent Soul and several Golden Core cultivators.”
Xiao Xiaodong nodded and muttered, “Thankfully, we escaped in time.”
…
Right after Xiao Jinting and the others left, several cultivators from Yin Ghost Sect appeared at the location of the teleportation array.
“The array has just been used, but it is gone now.”
“They escaped quickly,” a lean old man said coldly. He looked like a dying old man, but in fact, he was Elder Mugu, an intimidating Nascent Soul.
“Red Fire Monster is dead. I didn’t expect that he would get killed like this, as he was at the advanced level of Golden Core.”
“We found there was a big array at the place where Red Fire Monster died, and hundreds of Thunder Flame Walnuts had been placed there. It can be confirmed that the person who built the array had something to do with the one who took the Soul Refining Water from the secret realm.”
“Have you found out who it is?”
“There was Xiao Xiaofan, a single spiritual root from Green Cloud Immortal Sect, and his brothers, father, daddy as well as Lei Xuan and Chen Xu, Chen Lifeng’s grandson. Xiao Xiaodong’s father seems to have advanced to Golden Core.”
“Xiao Jinting seems to be somebody. I wonder if Green Cloud Immortal Sect knows about this.”
“Arrange some people to guard here. Catch anyone who comes out of the teleportation array,”
…
A short while after Elder Mugu came, Chen Lifeng also arrived. The two of them fought and left in anger.
Later, cultivators of Heavenly God Sect came and fought with the people guarding the teleportation array. In the end, Heavenly God Sect defeated Yin Ghost Sect, who disappeared. The people of Heavenly God Sect stayed guarding the array.
The news that Xiao Jinting had killed Red Fire Monster spread quickly.
Qiu Yun frowned and said, “Are they crazy? Xiao Jinting is only a Foundation Establishment cultivator. How could he kill Red Fire Monster?”
“It might be true.” Mu Yun said, “The news says that Xiao Jinting has advanced to Golden Core.”
Qiu Yun knew that Xiao Jinting was not simple, but he didn’t expect him to advance to Golden Core so quickly. “Does he have the Soul Refining Water?”
“At the place where Red Fire Monster died, signs of a large number of Thunder Flame Walnuts being used have been noticed. The Soul Refining Water might be in his hands,” Mu Yun said.
Qiu Yun narrowed his eyes and said, “Fortunately, he escaped in time. Otherwise, he would be torn to pieces even if he is a Golden Core.”
Mu Yun said, “That’s right. Xiao Jinting left through the teleportation array, which had sent them far away.”
Qiu Yun shook his head and said, “Why did he take away Mr. Chen’s grandson? Mr. Chen flew into a rage and fought with the people of Yin Ghost Sect.”
“In that situation, he had to take Chen Xu away!” Mu Yun said.
Qiu Yun nodded and said, “You’re right.”
…
“Jinrong, what is going on?” Qu Tao asked.
Liu Jinrong smiled bitterly and said, “I have no idea.”
“Jinting has advanced to Golden Core?” Qu Tao frowned. Among the Green Cloud Immortal Sect cultivators who went to the secret realm, Xiao Jinting looked ordinary. Qu Tao felt it ridiculous to hear that the man who had been boasting with him in the secret realm turned out to be a mysterious expert.
Liu Jinrong was also surprised. After Red Fire Monster was killed, the elders of the sect summoned him several times and asked him how much he knew about Xiao Jinting.
Liu Jinrong didn’t know much about Xiao Jinting, who in his opinion was only an ordinary cultivator although they had met a few times. He thought Xiao Jinting was overconfident, as he went to the secret realm as a medium Foundation Establishment cultivator. He even brought his son at the preliminary level of Foundation Establishment.
He heard that Xiao Jinting had reached the advanced level of Foundation Establishment. Liu Jinrong thought that he had misjudged Xiao Jinting, who should have been at the advanced level of Foundation Establishment instead of medium level since he had advanced to Golden Core. There was such an expert hiding near him, but he failed to notice that. Liu Jinrong thought that he was really blind.
Qu Tao had thought that Xiao Jinting had some values because he was the father of Xiao Xiaofan, but now he turned out to be the mysterious person who had stirred things up in the secret realm, and he had even advanced to Golden Core.
Liu Jinrong took a deep breath and said, “It is said that he had killed Red Fire Monster. If he hadn’t advanced to Golden Core, he would not have killed the monster.”
Qu Tao scratched his head and said, “Jinrong, is he that strong?”
Liu Jinrong nodded and said, “I’m afraid so. Many forces are looking for him now. I heard that he also took the nest of the Golden Bee.”
Qu Tao was dumbfounded.
