The Clan Master Can’t possibly Be A Mortal

Looking at the Sect Master of the Divine Wind Sword Sect who was exuding the Yin Sha Sword Intent, Ye Feng asked with curiosity,

“Divine Wind Sect Master, I’m very curious why, despite knowing about the existence of the Demon-locking Tower, you previously didn’t destroy it?”

The other three Divine Origin Realm experts also turned their attention to the Divine Wind Sect Master.

“Because of greed and overconfidence,” the Divine Wind Sect Master sighed lightly.

“What do you mean?” Ye Feng asked.

“Three hundred years ago, an elder of our Divine Wind Sword Sect returned from a trip and constructed the Demon-locking Tower to imprison those evildoer beasts and extract a large amount of Evil Qi.”

“At that time, I discovered that Evil Qi could be combined with Sword Intent, potentially creating a stronger Yin Sha Sword Intent. Moreover, those Demon-locking Towers initially did imprison evildoer beasts, which seemed like a just act, so I didn’t stop it.”

“But later, I noticed an increasing number of Demon-locking Towers and correspondingly, more Evil Qi. That’s when the Great Elder finally showed his true colors.”

“I discovered that the Great Elder had the backing of a mysterious force called the ‘Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect’, which specifically gathered Evil Qi.”

“I knew this matter was not simple.”

“To avoid startling the snake, I covertly absorbed Evil Qi and ultimately cultivated the Yin Sha Sword Intent, which greatly increased my strength.”

“Then, I became arrogant.”

“I believed that with my strength, once I advanced to the Divine Origin Realm, even the powerful Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect backing the Great Elder would be no match for me, so I temporarily held back.”

“As for Old Demon Ding, the crazed former Great Elder, it was actually my idea for him to feign madness to confuse the enemy and keep a card up my sleeve.”

“But I underestimated the strength of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect. Their Sect Master managed to find a terrifying puppet like the Meat Mountain Monster, which was hopeless.”

At this point, the Divine Wind Sect Master sighed.

If it weren’t for the Meat Mountain Monster, the Quasi-Emperor strength of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect’s Sect Master indeed would not have been enough in front of him.

But who could have known that there existed such an undead puppet like the Meat Mountain Monster in this world?

Hearing this, Ye Feng and the others finally understood the whole story.

No wonder the Sect Master of the Divine Wind Sword Sect let the Demon-locking Tower slide—it turned out that he too needed the Evil Qi, and his underestimation of the enemy and overconfidence led to the current situation.

If the Divine Wind Sect Master had destroyed the Demon-locking Tower earlier and attacked the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect’s base, the Meat Mountain Monster would not have appeared.

“Thankfully, Sect Master Ye was here; otherwise, we would all be dead,” Commandery Prince Shu Qianjun sighed in relief.

“Indeed!” the others agreed wholeheartedly.

They were fortunate that the Misty Sect had emerged in the Southern River Basin, having Ye Feng, a legendary Sect Master.

Otherwise, the Southern River Basin might have truly been swept away by the Meat Mountain Monster, with millions of common people suffering catastrophe.

“Now that the Meat Mountain Monster has been killed by Sect Master Ye, and the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect’s Sect Master has also perished, it’s time for us to take the next step, such as invading the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect and destroying all the Demon-locking Towers.”

Commandery Prince Shu Qianjun stood up.

His injuries had mostly healed.

Although his combat strength was not at its peak, he could already take action and display Quasi-Emperor level strength.

Once he fully recovered, he would return to his peak.

“Leave the destruction of the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect to me. After all, I had already infiltrated the Demon Sect some time ago and am aware of the specifics,” Ye Feng said, standing up.

“What?”

The crowd was greatly surprised.

It turned out that Ye Feng had known about this matter all along and had even personally infiltrated the Heaven-Devouring Demon Sect to gather detailed information.

Ye Feng had always been at the forefront of this affair!

“So, Sect Master Ye had a plan in place before acting, no wonder you were so calm.”

“Sect Master Ye is the blessing of the Southern River Basin!”

“Sect Master Ye is truly a divine presence!”

The Four Great Divine Origin Realms gave a thumbs-up simultaneously.
