The Clan Master Can't possibly Be A Mortal

Chapter 854: Chapter 854: The Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect Elder's Guess and the Demand for the Stone Coffin

The words of the Elder from the Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect made the Golden-Robed Heavenly Saint slightly furrow his brows, then he suddenly realized and said,

"So, that's how it is! No wonder Lin Kun is so aggressive, even going as far as to use part of the Sect Protection Array's celestial power."

"But isn't he being a bit too stingy?"

"Just because he doesn't want a few of our Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect's geniuses to sweep the top three places and receive guidance from the Spirit Venerable?"

In his eyes, Lin Kun was, after all, a dignified Saint Heir. Could he really be so petty?

"You don't understand the intricacies involved, it's not about being narrow-minded, but about acting on orders," the old man from the Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect slowly started to explain.

His gaze seemed to drift, as if he was reminiscing about something.

"I would like to hear the details," the Golden-Robed Heavenly Saint said with a clasped fist.

"It is the Spirit Venerable who dislikes our Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect... To be more precise, it is he who dislikes the Sect Master," the elder said in a low voice.

"Why is that?" the Golden-Robed Heavenly Saint didn't understand.

The Spirit Venerable had always remained neutral.

No matter what happened in the various realms, he and the Holy Spirit Sect had always observed from the sidelines, never intervening.

Therefore, the Spirit Venerable had no enemies.

So, why did he instruct Lin Kun to target the Devouring Heaven Demonic Sect?

This did not fit the persona of a neutral power at all!

The Golden-Robed Heavenly Saint couldn't figure it out.

"The Spirit Venerable is very proud and mysterious. Some speculate that his true strength is not inferior to the likes of the Thunder Emperor, the Sword God, and the Tyrant Emperor; and he had only one friend, who was... the Tyrant Emperor!"

The elder spoke slowly.
