Lei Wanjun fell silent.
Wu Tianji was right.
Not even a sixth rank Gold Immortal could match David.
“Then let’s wait.” Wu Tianji’s voice was calm. “Let’s wait for him to come to Nineteenth Heaven.”
“Waiting for him to come?”
Lei Wanjun frowned. “Chief Wu, are you kidding me? You wait for him to come to you? What if he doesn’t come?”
“He will definitely come.” Wu Tianji’s voice was full of confidence. “He can’t stay on Eighteenth Heaven forever.”
Silence fell again in the council meeting room.
Everyone showed complex expressions, a mixture of fear, killing intent, and an inexplicable feeling of anticipation.
“Then let’s wait.”
An elder from the Temple of Holy Light spoke, his voice containing a hint of coldness, “When he arrives on the Nineteenth Heaven, we will set a trap. The moment he steps onto the Nineteenth Heaven, we will ensure his death.”
“That’s right.”
Lei Wanjun nodded. “Even though a junior at the first rank of the Golden God Realm is powerful, he is unlikely to cause trouble in the nineteenth heaven.”
The nineteenth heaven was not like the eighteenth heaven; the mighty creatures here were as numerous as the feathers on a cow. If he dares to come, we will make sure he doesn’t leave alive.
Wu Tianji nodded, a cold glint radiating from his golden-red eyes.
“Then it’s decided. Starting today, all spies from each race will be sent to strictly monitor the movements of the Eighteenth Heaven. Once David enters the Nineteenth Heaven, everyone will be immediately notified.”
“There is one more thing,” said the Elder of the Holy Light Temple. “Should we tell the God King of the Twentieth Heaven about this?”
The atmosphere in the council room suddenly became tense.
The God-King of the twentieth heaven was a true high-ranking member of the God race, at the highest peak among them.
Their cultivation level was immeasurable; it was said that they had reached the peak of the ninth rank of the Golden Immortal Realm, or even higher.
If the God King found out that the divine power of the Eighteenth Heaven had been destroyed by a Daoist cultivator, everyone present would be punished.
“We can’t tell you.”
Wu Tianji’s voice was cold, “At least before eliminating David, we must not tell him. If the God King finds out that we have lost face so badly on Eighteenth Heaven, our lives will not be easy.”
“That’s right.”
Lei Wanjun nodded, “We will finish off David first, and then report to the God King. At that time, he is dead, and the God King will not mind it too much.”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
Kill David, seal the news, and prevent it from reaching Twentieth Heaven.
This is the consensus they reached.
Meanwhile, in the eighteenth heaven, there was the Blue Cloud Cave.
David sat cross-legged on the Cliff of Enlightenment, his purple eyes staring at the distant horizon, with a hint of contemplation in his gaze.
He had waited for ten days.
Ten days later, there was still no news from Han Qianshan.
There was no news regarding Su Yuqi’s whereabouts or the nest of the Flame Demon lineage.
David is in no rush, but he doesn’t like waiting either.
He stood up, stretched his limbs, and his bones crackled slightly.
Silvery moonlight shone on the cliff top, covering the entire cliff in silvery light.
The night wind blew from the north, bringing with it a chill—cold air originating from the Northern Gorge, which could still be felt even from thousands of miles away.
His divine sense detected a rapidly approaching aura.
It was a silvery white light that shot from the southeast at extremely high speed, like a shooting star streaking across the sky.
A moment later, the silvery white light fell on the Cliff of Enlightenment.
He was a young cultivator wearing a silvery white robe. His face was ordinary, but his eyebrows showed the intelligence typical of a businessman.
His cultivation level was at the second rank of the Golden Immortal Realm, and his aura was calm and restrained, which clearly showed that he was not an ordinary person.
“Mr. Chen?” The young cultivator bowed respectfully.
David nodded. “Void Merchant Guild?”
“Yes.”
The young cultivator took out a piece of jade paper from his robe and handed it to David with both hands. “Special Envoy Han sent me with a message. The location of the Flame Demon bloodline on Eighteenth Heaven that Master Chen is looking for has been found. However, Su Yuqi, who Master Chen is looking for, has not been found.”
David took the jade scroll and probed it with his divine sense.
The jade scroll contained a map marking the exact location of the Flame Demon lineage’s headquarters on Eighteenth Heaven.
It was a remote mountain range hidden in the far west, rarely visited by people, with little spiritual energy, a very isolated place.
However, there was no information about Su Yuqi on the map.
David frowned slightly.
“Did Special Envoy Han say where Su Yuqi might be?”
The young cultivator shook his head. “Emissary Han said that Su Yuqi’s aura had completely disappeared in Eighteenth Heaven. There were two possibilities: she was dead, or she had gone to another Heaven.”
