Chapter 3828: Investigation



“Greetings, Illusionary Ancestor!” After a moment of surprise, the Warring Old Freak clasped his fist.


“I want to know everything about him.” The Illusionary Ancestor’s voice was slightly cold. As she spoke, it was filled with undefiable authority.


“Illusionary Ancestor, I really don’t know too much about Yang Yutian. I’m not as close with him as you may imagine,” said the Warring Old Freak.


“If you’re not close with him, why does it seem like you care quite a bit about him?” the Illusionary Ancestor said coldly.


The Warring Old freak smiled wryly and said, “That’s because he exposed the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment for forging Fiend Soul Banners on the Hall Brilliance Heaven. He helped out our War sect tremendously. He basically helped out our Hall Brilliance Heaven as well, so both our War sect and the Hall Brilliance Heaven technically owe him a very big favour.”


“As for Yang Yutian’s identities and origins, I’m in the dark as well. I only know that he possesses a very powerful trump card, which previously killed a Fourth Heavenly Layer Immortal Exalt on the Hall Brilliance Heaven.”


The Warring Old Freak was spouting blind lies. With his cultivation, he did not have to worry about the Illusionary Ancestor seeing through his lies. However, he only kept Jian Chen’s identity a secret. He confessed everything else, including some of the deeds Jian Chen had committed on the Hall Brilliance Heaven.


It was impossible to hide some of these things after all.


“That’s all I know about Yang Yutian. However, Yang Yutian did stay in the Immortal Rising City for a period of time on the Hall Brilliance Heaven, and I didn’t really pay attention to the Immortal Rising City,” said the Warring Old Freak.


“The Hall Brilliance Heaven, is it?” The Illusionary Ancestor murmured before vanishing.


After the Illusionary Ancestor departed, the Warring Old Freak remained stationary. He gradually became stern and thought, “From the looks of things, the Illusionary Ancestor is going to personally investigate Yang Yutian’s matters on the Hall Brilliance Heaven? I just wonder if he can keep his identity as the sect master of the Sword Sect of Violet Heavens hidden.


The Warring Old Freak was concerned, but it soon turned into a gentle sigh. Regardless of the outcome, he could not interfere with this matter.


As Jian Chen sped through outer space under the disguises of the mask from the Illusionary Daemon race and the Divine Armour of Heavenflight, the Illusionary Ancestor had already arrived on the Hall Brilliance Heaven silently, appearing in the Immortal Rising City.


At this moment, she hovered in the air. Beneath her feet were the bustling streets, flowing with people. Despite countless cultivators shuffling about beneath her, no one sensed her existence.


Even those who glanced past the Illusionary Ancestor’s position failed to notice her.


“He seems to have stayed here for the longest on the Hall Brilliance Heaven, so I’ll start here,” the Illusionary Ancestor murmured.


She scanned the city before settling on the city lord’s estate. In the next moment, she suddenly vanished.


At this moment, in the main hall of the city lord’s estate, the two vice city lords, Qiu Wanqian and He Luo, were discussing some important matters. Ever since Immortal Exalt Tan Yu’s departure, all of the matters, whether large or small, fell on their shoulders.


However, as vice city lords, there were very few matters that they had to attend to personally. They basically left it all to their subordinates. They only had to handle the decision making when it came to some important matters.


“Are the two of you entirely in charge of the city?” At this moment, they suddenly heard a voice, which made Qiu Wanqian and He Luo leap in fright.


They subconsciously looked over and saw a middle-aged woman in black clothes. Currently, she sat on the throne that only belonged to the city lord. Her presence was entirely erased, so it was impossible to tell her strength. However, she gave off a lofty sense of authority. Under her gaze, Qiu Wanqian and He Luo could not help but lower their heads, afraid to meet her eyes.


“We are the vice city lords of the Immortal Rising City. As the city lord is currently gone, we are indeed the highest authority in this city right now,” Qiu Wanqian clasped his fist and said.


As they faced the woman in black, they did not even have the courage to raise their heads. They realised that the woman must have been an Immortal Exalt of extremely terrifying strength. As a result, they did not dare to disrespect her.


“You should know about a person called Yang Yutian, right?” The Illusionary Ancestor sat on the city lord’s throne casually and stared at Qiu Wanqian and He Luo like she was studying them.


Qiu Wanqian and He Luo were startled. They exchanged glances. Qiu Wanqian answered, “Senior Yang Yutian showed great kindness to our Immortal Rising City. We obviously know of him.”


“Tell me everything you know about Yang Yutian,” the Illusionary Ancestor said demandingly.


“Senior, we don’t know much about senior Yang Yutian,” He Luo said carefully.


“Being able to serve the Illusionary Ancestor is your greatest honour. Remember, you must answer whatever questions the Illusionary Ancestor asks. Do not hide anything.” At this moment, an elderly voice rang out. In the next moment, an old man in coarse clothes appeared silently in the empty main hall.


He was the Warring Old Freak!


Qiu Wanqian and He Luo recognised the old man, and they shuddered inside. They showed great respect, rushing forward to greet him.


After all, the person before them was the undisputed greatest expert of the Hall Brilliance Heaven, as well as the strongest ancestor of the greatest organisation on the Hall Brilliance Heaven, the War sect!


Both Qiu Wanqian and He Luo felt extremely uneasy when they faced the Warring Old Freak. They were afraid of disrespecting him in the slightest.


“You don’t need to be so polite with me. The Illusionary Ancestor is the one with the greatest status here,” the Warring Old Freak said to Qiu Wanqian and He Luo. He clasped his fist towards her.” Illusionary Ancestor, I possess some prestige on the Hall Brilliance Heaven, so why don’t I help you resolve some of the more miscellaneous affairs during the next few days? What do you think, Illusionary Ancestor?”


“That can work.” the Illusionary Ancestor nodded.


Qiu Wanqian and He Luo widened their eyes in shock. Who exactly was the woman in black? Even the greatest expert of the Hall Brilliance Heaven, the Warring Old Freak, demonstrated such modesty when facing her.


It had to be mentioned that the Warring Old Freak’s attitude towards the Illusionary Ancestor left Qiu Wanqian and He Luo extremely shocked. They immediately lost the courage to hide anything and confessed everything that they knew about Jian Chen without holding back.


After leaving the city lord’s estate, the Illusionary Ancestor visited the Merchant Union of Star Brilliance, Falling Cloud City, and the area of wilderness where Jian Chen killed had the Void-perceiving Ancestor and the Wukun Master.


In the end, accompanied by the Warring Old Freak, she went to the ancient mountain range where one of the three ancestors of the Daoist Sect of Heavenly Embodiment, the Space-purging Ancestor, had perished.


The bottomless pit remained there. It seemed like a mark on the land that silently recounted how an Immortal Exalt had perished here.


The Illusionary Ancestor stood on the edge of the pit as she studied and probed the surroundings.


Very soon, she seemed to find something. She furrowed her brows, and her eyes gradually became filled with surprise.


“Illusionary Ancestor, have you discovered something?” the Warring Old Freak asked out of curiosity when he saw her expression changed.


He had once studied this place as well. In the end, he could only conclude that the huge pit was the product of a powerful formation.
