Chapter 3548 The Mysterious Altar

"Lin Yi has a huge grudge against your Heavenly Sect. If it weren't for the intervention of the Ancestor, he would have been destroyed by you long ago."

"The mortal feud is so deep that even though the culprit, Tianjie, is dead, it has nothing to do with you?"

"And the talent that Lin Yi has shown will be a nightmare for you if you don't eliminate him."

"Since there is no opportunity to eliminate him, you naturally want to resolve your grievances with him."

"And your approach is to first and foremost eliminate Lin Yi from this world, so that it can be done once and for all, without any accidents or hidden dangers."

"If it's impossible to get rid of him, this is a good opportunity to build a good relationship with Lin Yi, which might be useful in the future."

"After all, Lin Yi is on a completely different path and must find the other two bodies. This is especially urgent given that the Tower of Babel is about to descend. If we can help him find them, it will be a great favor to him."

"Lin Yi's death is beneficial to you, and Lin Yi's survival is still not a bad outcome for you. Your primary goal is to take this opportunity to eliminate him."

"You say you didn't have this thought, that you didn't foresee what might happen, do you even believe that yourself?"

Every word he uttered was aggressive, but Du Daosheng's tone remained remarkably calm.

"Du Daosheng, you are judging a gentleman by your own petty standards."

"Xuan'er is kind-hearted by nature and has never had the thought of harming Lin Yi."

"If Xuan'er wanted to kill Lin Yi, she would have had an absolute opportunity a long time ago."

"On the contrary, it helped him overcome the crisis time and time again."

"That's right, I really wish I could kill him as soon as possible, but Xuan'er stopped me every time, which made me lose the opportunity."

"How can you say such things with your own conscience?"

Even if Lin Yi were to reappear, he would absolutely not allow you to harm Xuan'er.

Tianjue said emotionally.

This point, though, has not been proven by anyone else.

But he was not lying.

In the past, there was indeed an opportunity, but it was ruined by his own granddaughter.

Otherwise, they would have found Lin Yi's physical body long ago.

Once he finds him, no matter what trump cards Lin Yi has, he won't be able to escape his grasp.

The difference in their abilities is far too great.

If we can overcome this crisis, I believe that Xuan'er will definitely grow from this experience.

For her, this is a good thing.

But the primary prerequisite is being able to overcome this difficulty.

However, Du Daosheng completely ignored Tian Jue and instead stared at the Holy Maiden Tianxuan.

“Du Daosheng, if you dare to act recklessly, I, Tianjue, swear that I will fight your Nine Cauldrons Sect to the death.”

Tianjue roared angrily.

He wanted to make a move, but he also knew that if he did, it would only hasten Tianxuan's death.

Hopefully, this move will intimidate Du Daosheng and make him wary.

After all, he was the sect leader of the Nine Cauldrons Sect.

We need to consider the interests of the Nine Cauldrons Sect.

It's not a good thing to be at odds with the Heavenly Sect to the death.

"Sect Leader Du, Tianxuan understands that no matter how you explain it, it's meaningless."

"But Tianxuan still wanted to respond."

"That's right, Tianxuan is indeed weighing the pros and cons, considering the sect's future."

"But one thing is certain: Tianxuan always hopes to resolve this matter by settling his grudges with Fellow Daoist Lin."

"I never intended to harm Fellow Daoist Lin."

"Tianxuan is also deeply saddened by the unfortunate passing of Fellow Daoist Lin."

Saint Tianxuan said.

In fact, she herself knew that Du Daosheng had murderous intent, and no matter how much she explained, it would be of no use.

It's impossible for them to believe in themselves.

Of course, even if you believe what you say, you might choose to ignore it.

It's just an excuse for myself.

Of course, what Du Daosheng said wasn't entirely without merit.

From his perspective, it's not a problem.

"Until death?"

"Heh, from the moment you attacked Lin Yi, we were already locked in a life-or-death struggle."

"Knowing that Lin Yi possessed the token of my Nine Cauldrons Sect, you still chose to attack, targeting the disciple of my sect's patriarch. Isn't this a fight to the death?"

"We just haven't bothered to make a fuss about it."

"A fight to the death, ha!"

Du Daosheng sneered.

His words made it quite clear that he was truly going to take action against the Holy Maiden of Tianxuan.

As the sect leader, his actions against the Heavenly Maiden were probably not solely due to Lin Yi's death.

Moreover, we also need to consider the future of the Nine Cauldrons Sect.

The Heavenly Maiden's talent is beyond question; she is an unparalleled prodigy.

It may even conceal secrets unknown to others.

To this day, they still don't know.

Although it wasn't leaked, Du Daosheng knew that the Holy Maiden of Tianxuan definitely had a secret.

The Nine Cauldrons Sect's greatest hope is gone, especially for the Heavenly Sect, which has a history of enmity with them.

What will happen once the Holy Maiden of Tianxuan grows up?

He simply couldn't predict it.

It all depends on the Holy Maiden Tianxuan's decision.

He couldn't gamble with the fate of his sect.

He was well aware of the consequences of killing the Holy Maiden of Tianxuan.

But will they be afraid of the Heavenly Sect?

“Du Daosheng, we were indeed wrong in the matter of Lin Yi being taken away by the Heavenly Tribulation, but you are not unaware of Tian Jue’s nature. He is someone we cannot control. Moreover, the Yin-Yang Soul Beast was also present at the time, and we did try to stop it.”

Tianjue said, hoping to keep Du Daosheng calm.

"However, we also know that we were wrong in this matter. Tianjie deserved to die at the hands of your sect's ancestor."

"For this reason, we are willing to publicly apologize and make amends. I can swear here that in the future, the Heavenly Sect will never take the initiative to be an enemy of your sect."

Tianjue was willing to give up everything in order to save Tianxuan.

"Grandpa, there's no need to say more. It's Xuan'er who is unfilial."

"Sect Leader Du, there's no need for further words, make your move."

There was a hint of sadness in Tianxuan's eyes. She had considered resisting.

But in Du Daosheng's hands, they had no right to resist at all.

Moreover, Du Daosheng brought the Nine Cauldrons Sect's resources with him.

Even the Supreme Elder of the Sword Sect could be easily killed.

Moreover, she was a cultivator at the Dao Integration Realm.

They had already accepted their fate.

boom!

An eerie aura rose up.

"Grandpa, don't do anything rash."
