Chapter 246: Something Has Gone Wrong
Hearing this, the two elderly men said no more. Without delay, the Falling God Peak grandmaster took the two honored elders and descended the mountain toward Hundred Refinements City.
At the same time, on a hilltop several dozen miles from Hundred Refinements City, the Profound Yin Three Elders of Primal Yin Origin Sect, the two Alliance Under Heaven helmsmen and their followers, and the Great Yan Sword Sect's Silver Moon Sword Lord were all looking toward Hundred Refinements City in the distance.
The hilltop was deep in darkness and utterly still, and throughout the whole time not a single person had made a sound.
After a long while, the two Alliance Under Heaven helmsmen withdrew their gazes, looked at each other, and then hesitantly looked toward the white-robed elder, asking in low voices, "Elder, what is the situation in Hundred Refinements City? Why has everything gone so quiet after that sky-wide sea of fire disappeared?"
Hearing this, the white-robed elder furrowed his brow slightly and looked toward Hundred Refinements City, which had now fallen silent in the distance, but did not reply.
At that point one of the Profound Yin Three Elders suddenly spoke, "Since Falling God Peak has already had the Scarlet Fire Honored Elder make their move, the result goes without saying. That Great Li court martial artist has certainly already been dealt with."
Both helmsmen gave slight nods. Though they were too far from Hundred Refinements City to witness what was happening inside or to sense the Scarlet Fire Honored Elder's aura, after what they had seen before, they harbored the same thoughts as the Profound Yin Three Elders. How could anyone possibly be a match for an existence commanding such extraordinary power?
Among everyone present, only the Silver Moon Sword Lord was quiet and thoughtful, eyes on the sky ahead with a pondering expression.
Even though he also believed it was essentially impossible for something to have gone wrong with the Scarlet Fire Honored Elder, he kept feeling there was something slightly off somewhere.
