Fantasy Antagonist: After I Acted Lazy, The Protagonist Went Off The Rails.

The ancestral land of the Teng Snake Clan!

Inside a massive tower, countless lanterns were placed.

Among the countless lanterns burned various flames, and the numerous flames blended together, illuminating the entire tower.

Soul lanterns.

These were extremely special treasures of heaven and earth. As long as they were imprinted with the breath of life, they could sense the life force of the soul lantern's owner.

The stronger the life force, the more vigorous the flame.

Conversely, the weaker the life force, the weaker the flame.

Once the flame extinguished, it meant that the owner of the soul lantern had completely perished.

This unique treasure of heaven and earth was the most sensitive indicator of the owner's life condition, which led to various factions using soul lanterns to observe the life force of their subordinates.

If anything went wrong with the soul lantern, it could be known immediately.

In the Teng Snake Clan's Soul Lantern Tower, there were numerous levels of soul lanterns.

The higher the level, the fewer the number of soul lanterns, representing the owner's status within the Teng Snake Clan.

The higher the level, the higher the status; the lower the level, the lower the status.

At the same time, on the topmost level, one soul lantern suddenly extinguished.

Without any warning, it went out in an instant.

Because it happened so suddenly, the disciples of the Soul Lantern Tower did not notice it immediately.

After several minutes passed, a disciple of the Teng Snake Clan instinctively looked up at the soul lantern above.

When he saw that the soul lantern on the topmost level had completely lost its flame, his body trembled. He pushed the person next to him and said in a deep voice, "Is that the soul lantern of the Divine Child?"

"That one?"

Another disciple of the Teng Snake Clan instinctively looked over.

When he saw the extinguished soul lantern, he immediately woke up.

"The Divine Child's soul lantern has gone out!"

"Who has the audacity to harm the Divine Child?"

The two of them were completely panicked.

The fall of the Divine Child was an earth-shattering event.

"Something has happened, report it to the elders immediately!"

"Understood!"

A disciple of the Teng Snake Clan hurriedly left the tower.

After a few minutes, several powerful figures suddenly appeared at the tower.

"Elder Three!"

The disciples inside the tower quickly saluted.

The elders did not even look at these disciples, their gaze directly falling on the soul lantern of the Teng Snake Divine Child.

Boom!

A terrifying aura erupted, like an erupting volcano, an unparalleled pressure swept out, suffocating the disciples present, making it difficult for them to breathe.

"Where did the Divine Child go during this period?"

An old man asked in a deep voice.

The position of the Divine Child was extraordinary.

It concerned the future of the Teng Snake Clan and could not be taken lightly.

"The Divine Child went to the Spirit Snake City to gamble on stones recently!"

Someone answered.

Upon hearing this news, several elders frowned.

If it was in the Spirit Snake City, most likely no one would dare to harm the Teng Snake Divine Child.

"Continue investigating, find out who did it!"

"Whoever it is, they must pay the price. Our Teng Snake Clan's Divine Child cannot die like this!"

An elder said in a deep voice.

Regardless of the power behind them, if their successor was killed and they took no action, it would undoubtedly cause a huge upheaval.

Both externally and internally.

"The fall of the Divine Child is already a foregone conclusion, but the clan cannot be without a young leader. Let the younger generation come back and compete, determining the new generation of the Divine Child!"

Another elder said softly.

The other elders did not refute, as if they had already become accustomed to it.

This is the characteristic of the Tengshe Clan, lacking in human sentiment.

Even though the Tengshe Divine Son had died not long ago, there were immediately people vying for the position of the Tengshe Divine Son.

...

Inside the hall.

Many high-level members of the Tengshe Clan gathered here.

With the Tengshe Clan Chief at the forefront!

"The latest news is that the Divine Son died at the hands of the Holy Son of Absolute Beginning, Jiang Chen!"

"And the Divine Son made the first move!"

The four elders of the Tengshe Clan looked around at everyone and said in a deep voice.

As soon as these words were spoken, silence fell around them.

They didn't know what to say.

If the Divine Son had died at the hands of the older generation or a weaker force, they could have made use of it.

But the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning was truly untouchable.

"Did the older generation intervene?"

The fifth elder of the Tengshe Clan asked.

If they wanted to make use of the situation, they had to rely on the older generation.

If the older generation had intervened, they could have taken action.

"No!"

"Neither Jiang Chen's protectors nor the Divine Son's protectors made a move!"

"Not only did the Divine Son die at Jiang Chen's hands, but also a genius from the Golden Winged Great Peng Bird Clan!"

"According to the news that has spread!"

"Both of them were suppressed by Jiang Chen, with no room to fight back!"

The four elders said slowly.

"This is impossible. Jiang Chen is only at the True King Realm, and his cultivation level is even lower than the Divine Son's. How could he achieve such a level?"

"There must be more to it!"

"It's very likely that the protectors of the Holy Son of Absolute Beginning intervened!"

An excited high-level member of the Tengshe Clan said.

If the Tengshe Divine Son had fallen in a fierce battle against Jiang Chen, they would have nothing to say.

But Jiang Chen's cultivation was not enough to leave the Tengshe Divine Son with no room to fight back.

Because not long ago, Jiang Chen had just reached the True King Realm, and his cultivation level was even lower than the Tengshe Divine Son's.

It was impossible for him to make such a significant improvement in such a short time and suppress the Tengshe Divine Son without giving him any chance to fight back.

Rather than believing that Jiang Chen had made a significant improvement in a short time, they were more willing to believe that Jiang Chen's protectors had intervened.

"I also think it's not that simple!"

"It's very likely that the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning intervened!"

"The younger generation was fighting, and the older generation didn't intervene. The Holy Land of Absolute Beginning has broken this rule!"

"Holy Land of Absolute Beginning must pay the price!"

"We can't let the Divine Son die in vain!"

Upon hearing that the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning might have intervened, many high-level members immediately became excited.

If it was just the younger generation fighting and dying, they had no reason to say anything.

But if the older generation had intervened, things wouldn't be so simple.

"Fourth elder, take a life and death realm cultivator from our clan to test Jiang Chen's strength!"

"If Jiang Chen can't easily defeat the life and death realm cultivator from our clan, it means that Jiang Chen is far from having the strength to suppress the Divine Son!"

"This also means that the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning has crossed the line!"

The Tengshe Clan Chief's tone was indifferent, his gaze cold, and an invisible killing intent filled the air.

The other high-level members remained silent.

They understood as well.

Once the Holy Land of Absolute Beginning had crossed the line, they could also act without any taboos.
