After leaving the treasure vault, Ye Qiu headed to the lower level of the Immortal Palace to find the whereabouts of the Heaven Mending Sect members.
However, he did not see a single Heaven Mending Sect disciple after searching for a long time.
“That’s strange. Where did they go?”
Ye Qiu had an ominous feeling. He recalled Gongsun Baizhi’s gaze when he left and his heart suddenly trembled.
“Not good. This old fellow must have done something.”
The uneasiness in Ye Qiu’s heart grew stronger. Back then, the Immortal Mountain was destroyed by the Heaven Mending Sect. As a branch of the Immortal Mountain, Gongsun Baizhi definitely wouldn’t let this matter rest.
This was a situation where they would never stop until one of them died. Moreover, in the Monarch’s tomb, their First Elder, Gongsun Yang, was also killed by Ye Qiu. This rumor had already spread throughout the world.
It was impossible for the other party not to know.
In a moment of desperation, Ye Qiu couldn’t care less. He activated his divine power and activated his Heavenly Eye to search a large area. He had to find Meng Tianzheng and the others as soon as possible to confirm if they were in danger.
Ye Qiu’s divine sense spread out in all directions and began to search. After half a day, he finally discovered a clue in an extreme ice cave.
The Arctic Ice Cave contained a forbidden spell that isolated the outside world from the inside.
There were a few black-clothed old men guarding the entrance. It was not difficult to determine from their clothes that they were from the Immortal Mountain Holy Land.
After discovering their existence, Ye Qiu hid in the darkness and silently observed their actions.
......
The two old men at the door were discussing among themselves.
“Senior Brother Wang, why do you think Patriarch locked these people inside instead of killing them and ending everything? We even have to give up this hard-earned immortal opportunity and wait here bitterly.”
An elder complained.

Wang Han rolled his eyes and said, “How would I know? How can we guess the Patriarch’s thoughts? You should stay here obediently and do your job. Otherwise, you won’t be the only one unlucky when the Patriarch gets angry.”
Speaking of which, they were helpless. This expedition to the Immortal Palace was filled with opportunities. However, they were forced to end the search for their own immortal fate. Instead, they had to guard this lousy ice cave.
After hearing Wang Han’s words, Li Yuan felt a chill. When he thought of the Patriarch’s cruel methods, he felt a lingering fear and did not dare to complain anymore.
After a while, Wang Han thought of something and continued, “I heard from Second Senior Brother that the Patriarch is preparing to attack that person from the Heaven Mending Sect this time. Therefore, he specially captured these people and prepared to set a trap for him.
“Back then, the Eastern Wasteland’s Heaven Mending Sect destroyed our Immortal Mountain’s orthodoxy and damaged our Immortal Mountain’s providence. We have to take revenge for such a huge grudge.
“No matter what, the Patriarch is definitely going to be serious this time. Moreover, I heard that the Patriarch specifically asked the higher-ups for their permission.”
Ye Qiu, who was hiding in the dark, was shocked.
“This old fellow actually wants to scheme against me?”
Ye Qiu’s killing intent instantly soared, and his eyes were incomparably cold. What he hated the most in his life was being threatened.
Gongsun Baizhi had captured the Heaven Mending Sect probably to use this as a final threat. However, he could not figure out why his two disciples escaped unscathed after Meng Tianzheng and the others were captured.
Could it be that he knew that Lin Qingzhu and Zhao Wan’er had the jade talisman left behind by Lian Feng?
Thinking of this, Ye Qiu felt a sense of danger. It turned out that he had already targeted him. He had been looking for an opportunity to attack.
“Haha… Interesting. If I hadn’t noticed it in advance, he would have succeeded.”
Ye Qiu was a little glad. Fortunately, he had sensed that something was wrong in advance and specially came down to check.
As expected, the Immortal Mountain had already begun to attack. Since they had already made a move, there was no need for the Heaven Mending Sect to argue with them.
“Who is it!”
Wang Han, who was guarding the door, suddenly felt a bone-chilling wind blow past. He was shocked and hurriedly shouted.
One had to know that this was a forbidden area that their ancestor had personally specified to protect. No one was allowed to approach it. If anything happened here, they would use their lives to apologize.
How could they dare to relax at all? The moment they felt the abnormality, they immediately raised their guard and entered a combat state.
On the narrow and dim abyss, a white figure slowly descended.
The two of them felt their hearts turn cold.
“Ye Qiu…”

After seeing the person, their hearts turned completely cold. They could not believe what they had seen.
Wasn’t Ye Qiu in the Celestial Thearch’s treasure vault? Why did he suddenly appear here?
The person who reacted the fastest was Wang Han. The moment he discovered Ye Qiu, he secretly took out a jade token and prepared to send a message to Gongsun Baizhi.
The moment he took out the jade token, Wang Han was about to crush it when suddenly…
Pfft…
Blood sprayed out, dyeing the ground red. An arm was forcefully cut off.
“Ah!”
Wang Han’s hand that was holding the jade token was cut off, emitting a tearing cry of pain.
This shout alarmed the surrounding elders of the Immortal Mountain. They also rushed over in an instant. However, after they saw Ye Qiu, everyone couldn’t help but take a step back and reveal fearful gazes.
“Ye Qiu, what do you want? You injured an elder of my Immortal Mountain for no reason and barged into my forbidden land?”
One of them questioned, but unexpectedly, the head fell to the ground in the next second.
This simple and crude method shocked everyone. All the elders and disciples of the Immortal Mountain could not help but retreat and tremble. They thought that Ye Qiu didn’t know what they had done and wanted to trick him into leaving.
“Hmph… Immortal Mountain. Looks like there’s no need for this Holy Land to exist anymore.”
At this moment, Ye Qiu was very angry. He didn’t show any mercy and couldn’t be bothered to reason with them. With a raise of his hand, a supreme power crushed over. In less than a moment, everyone outside the cave fell to the ground and died.
It was a massacre without any suspense. Among them, the strongest was only a mid-stage King-Ranked elder.
This kind of strength didn’t even have a chance to struggle in front of Ye Qiu.
In less than three seconds, hundreds of Immortal Mountain elders and disciples were killed by Ye Qiu.
Only Wang Han, who wanted to inform the others, covered his severed arm and looked at Ye Qiu in fear.
Ye Qiu only looked at him coldly and said, “Speak, where are my Heaven Mending Sect’s people locked up?”
Wang Han was also a tough nut to crack. Facing the pressure of a Martial Monarch, he did not retreat at all. Instead, he laughed wildly.
“Haha! Ye Qiu, I admit that you’re very strong. I’m not your match, but you want to save people? Dream on.”
After saying that, he wanted to end his own life before Ye Qiu could do anything.
But how could Ye Qiu do as he wished? He grabbed his neck and controlled him. He sneered. “Want to die? It’s not that easy. You’re very tough. Next, I’ll let you experience what it means to be better off dead.”
