Chapter 202: The Revival of the Devil Cult
The Kunlun Mountains, majestic and towering, have drawn the gaze of countless heroes and remarkable individuals over the millennia. At this moment, on a quiet street in Kunwu City, two men stood side by side, gazing at the rolling mountain range in the distance.
One of them had an unremarkable appearance, dressed in a worn white robe that made him look like a scholar who had failed in his endeavors. As he looked at the distant mountains, he suddenly smiled and said to his companion, “Brother Chen, are you really certain that this is not your doing?”
The man beside him, Chen He, was a familiar face from the Devil Cult’s stronghold in the Immortal City. Chen He shook his head and said, “Brother Fan, it is indeed not our doing. When we learned of the Reincarnation Array appearing on Kunlun Mountain, we initially thought it was an act by the Devil Cult’s operatives from your Western Six. Elder Gui was concerned that you might be too hasty, which is why he sent me to investigate.”
The man called Fan Tui smiled and said, “Thank you for Elder Gui’s consideration, and I appreciate your efforts in coming all this way.”
The two turned their backs to Kunlun Mountain and walked slowly down the street. Chen He smiled slightly and said to Fan Tui, “It’s quite puzzling. If it’s neither your Western Six sect nor the disciples from the Immortal City, and considering that the other sects are far from the Western Six, it seems unlikely they would travel such a long distance to interfere with Kunlun Sect. So, who could be behind this?”
Fan Tui shrugged, appearing somewhat helpless, and said, “Perhaps it’s an old informant who was planted in Kunlun Sect years ago and has since lost contact. After the Battle of the Wasteland ten years ago, our elite forces suffered significant losses, and many people have become unreachable.”
Chen He nodded and then looked at Fan Tui, “Brother Fan, despite the difficult circumstances over the years, you have steadfastly maintained and gradually restored the situation in the Western Six. I greatly admire your efforts. Even Elder Gui holds you in high regard.”
Fan Tui smiled, glanced at Chen He, and did not respond.
Chen He continued, “However, Brother Fan, from what we’ve seen this time, our Devil Cult has reached a critical point where things cannot continue as they are. With someone on Kunlun Mountain capable of using such a high-level divine technique as the Reincarnation Array, it must be an important figure within our sect. Yet, we know nothing about this person, and even today we cannot make contact with them. Moreover, our initial reaction was to ascertain the sect the person belonged to… If we remain in this state of confusion, our sect’s revival is surely doomed.”
