The Soul Pearl stored one’s energy and was able to show if one was dead or alive. However, the energy in the Soul Pearl would dissipate over time, and thus, losing its use. One would need to infuse the Soul Pearl with energy from time to time to keep it functioning.
Bai Wu Ji, the Sect Leader of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect, did some mental calculations and discovered his son was due to infuse his energy into the Soul Pearl half a month ago. His expression became extremely grim at this moment.

Senior Brother Yu Xuan… He’s dead! It’s the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect! He killed Senior Brother Yu Xuan!
The young man’s words resounded through the Alchemy Square that was quiet as a graveyard.

Hm?
Duan Ling Tian was taken aback when he heard the young man’s words. Then, he instinctively turned to look at He Shan, the Old Ancestor of Tai Yi Celestial Sect, who wore a shocked expression on his face.
The young man’s words caused a commotion among the crowd in the Alchemy Square. It did not take long before everyone turned to look at He Shan. They looked at him as though he was a dead man walking as they fervently discussed among themselves.

Senior Brother Yu Xuan? That’s Bai Yu Xuan, right? The Young Master of the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect? He Shan from the Tai Yi Celestial Sect killed him?


Is He Shan crazy? Bai Yu Xuan is the only son of the Sect Leader of Profound Heaven Celestial Sect!


Why did He Shan kill Bai Yu Xuan? Is it due to their conflict a month ago?


That’s possible!


But, why did He Shan let this young man live after he killed Bai Yu Xuan? Isn’t this just digging a hole for himself?


Look at how wretched the young man looks. It’s obvious that he barely escaped with his life. Can’t see you the wound on his chest? It’s obvious it’s meant to be a killing blow, but the wound is slightly to the side of his heart. That’s probably why he survived…


You’re right…

Meanwhile, Bai Wu Ji glared at He Shan before he bellowed,
He Shan!

Boom!
Bai Wu Ji’s Celestial Origin Energy surged out without any warning. In just a blink of an eye, he disappeared from where he was standing, leaving only a pit and his afterimage in his wake. Cracks appeared on the ground and began to spread outward.
The people from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect took to the air as the ground caved in due to Bai Wu Ji’s force.
Boom!
Another explosion resonated in the air before Bai Wu Ji’s afterimage even disappeared. The crowd saw Bai Wu Ji appearing in front of He Shan before he sent He Shan flying back.
Cracks similar to spider webs formed on the ground where He Shan stood as well.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The force was so powerful that half of He Shan’s body was buried in the ground after he landed. He spat out a mouthful of blood, staining the ground a dazzling red. He struggled to catch his breath as he said with great difficulty,
S-sect… Sect Leader Bai, I… I didn’t… kill your s-son…
He might have resigned to his fate if he had really killed Bai Yu Xuan, but the truth was he did not kill Bai Yu Xuan.
He Shan was about to speak again when the young man coldly said,
He Shan, I bet you didn’t expect things to turn out this way, right? You missed when you tried to pierce my heart! You probably think no one would find out after you killed me and Senior Brother Yu Xuan, right?
His eyes flashed with hatred, and his body trembled violently as he pointed at He Shan.
Fortunately, I survived. Senior Brother Yu Xuan isn’t as lucky and was killed by you!

He Shan looked at the young man pointedly and asked in a grim tone,
Who are you? Why are you slandering me?


He Shan!
Bai Wu Ji cried out as his body flickered out of sight and appeared near He Shan again.
A month ago, your disciple had a conflict with my son… Indeed, my son was at fault at that time. I had ignored him even though he had asked for my help. Regarding that matter, I think I’ve shown enough respect to the Tai Yi Celestial Sect. However, you dare to kill my son? I would be doing my son an injustice if I don’t kill you today! An eye for an eye!
He looked at He Shan murderously as his Celestial Origin Energy violently surged out from his body.

Sect Leader Bai, I’ve already said I didn’t kill…
Before He Shan could finish explaining himself, Bai Wu Ji attacked him at lightning speed. He could only struggle to defend himself against Bai Wu Ji’s attack.

It’s too fast!!

Bai Wu Ji and He Shan’s movements were so fast that some people, including Duan Ling Tian, were unable to clearly see them. Nevertheless, the force of their collision was so strong that it felt like there were 10,000 horses stampeding across the Alchemy Square.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
The wind blew violently at the crowd, and a seemingly bottomless pit appeared on the ground where the two men exchanged blows. The pit was so big that half of the stone platform was destroyed. The eight chairs that were placed on the stone platform were blasted away and destroyed as well.
‘Something’s not right…’ Duan Ling Tian thought to himself skeptically when he recalled the genuine shock on He Shan’s face as he denied killing Bai Yu Xuan. Naturally, he had no way of knowing if He Shan truly killed Bai Yu Xuan or not since he was not always with He Shan. However, based on He Shan’s reactions, it seemed unlikely that He Shan had killed Bai Yu Xuan. If He Shan had truly killed Bai Yu Xuan, logically, He Shan would have killed that bloodstained young man as soon as he appeared for fear of being exposed. After all, even if the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect was infuriated that He Shan had killed that young man, it was unlikely that they would kill He Shan over the young man. After all, compared to the young man, He Shan’s status as the Old Ancestor of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect was higher. In this world where the strong were revered, this was not a surprising thing. In line with that, if He Shan had killed Bai Yu Xuan, Bai Wu Ji had more than enough reasons to kill He Shan. Moreover, as long as Bai Wu Ji left the rest of the Tai Yi Celestial Sect alone after killing He Shan, the hidden powerhouses secretly protecting the Tai Yi Celestial Sect might not even make a move since Bai Wu Ji’s actions were justified.
Bai Wu Ji had probably lost his rationality after hearing that his son had been killed. If he had thought about it with a clear mind, he would realize that since his son’s Soul Pearl was intact, there was a possibility that his son was alive. The Soul Pearl had only just lost its energy, after all. If he was not consumed by anger, it might cross his mind that the young man from the Profound Heaven Celestial Sect could have lied as well. Alas, the only thought he had in his mind now was to kill He Shan to avenge his son!
Bang!
The battle continued for roughly ten more breaths before it abruptly came to an end.

Bai Wu Ji, I didn’t kill you son!
He Shan’s voice that was ladened with resentment rang thunderously before blood rained down on the Alchemy Square.
Bai Wu Ji finally reappeared in the midst of the blood fog as a Spatial Ring fell in the air.
