As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1038
Chapter 1038 Expose
“I’m cultivating inside, but you’re disturbing Spiritual Energy outside. And just now … were you trying to kill me?”
A cold and faint voice came from the depths of the thick fog, causing everyone’s hearts to tremble. It was Xiao Yichen!
Didn’t he say that his cultivation had been completely lost? Why now …
At this moment, fear appeared on everyone’s faces. The people who were originally still approaching the cold pond quickly retreated backwards.
“Childe …”
The faces of the Yun Sect elders were also deathly pale, especially the red-clothed elders. At this moment, their eyes were filled with horror.
Previously, they had fought with Xiao Chen and confirmed that this person’s cultivation had lost. There was no way that there was anything wrong with him. At the beginning, they did not know who the person in front of them was. They thought that he was just an ordinary person. Later, they heard from Childe that this person was the master of Lustless Heaven. He was even more powerful than Xiao Meng’er.
“Uh …”
At this moment, the Qingyi man seemed to be choked by an invisible force. No matter how high his cultivation was, he was still completely like an unarmed child, unable to struggle at all.
This scene frightened the people outside. In the end, they only heard how powerful Xiao Yichen was. They had never seen him attack. It was just like how they knew about Xiao Meng’er. They knew how powerful he was, but they never saw him attack. Only after she attacked did they know that she was so terrifying.
The dense fog on the cold pool gradually dissipated, and a silent chill spread out from it, causing the hearts of everyone present to tremble. They were all stunned on the spot, silent like cicadas, not daring to make a sound.
In the distance, Xiao Meng’er did not move at all. Her clothes moved with the wind. She stared at the cold pond where the smoke gradually dissipated. She thought to herself, did he really not have any cultivation before? He was actually able to come to such a dangerous place, and at this moment, the aura coming from his body …
Apparently, the aura Xiao Meng’er felt from him was already very different from when she met him in Mount Shu a few months ago. She could not tell what kind of feeling this was.
Originally, she had found the Essence of Yi Wood in Mount Shu. Although she had not yet been able to completely refine and fuse the Essence of Yi Wood, her cultivation was no longer comparable to before. The so-called Saint realm was only a short distance away from her. Even though this short distance might be a horizon, her goal had never been to become a Saint …
At this moment, the seemingly indistinct aura she sensed from Xiao Chen caused her to faintly feel uneasy. No one in the world could give her such a sense of crisis, not even Chen Yufeng, the most outstanding genius of the Chen Clan for thousands of years.
On the other side, Chen Yufeng of the Chen Clan and his younger sister, Chen Ruyu, were also staring at the cold pond. Chen Ruyu looked excited and curious, as if she was afraid that the world would not be in chaos, while Chen Yufeng stood at the side and watched the changes with rapt attention.
Finally, the smoke on the cold pond began to disperse. Everyone seemed to have vaguely seen the frightening cold figure in the mist.
“Gong, Childe …”
Yun Sect Old man Zi Yi was already frightened. His face was even whiter than paper. He held his breath and stared motionlessly at the other side of the pond, but he did not dare to go over.
“I’m asking you something, why don’t you answer?”
Finally, the smoke on the cold pond dissipated. Xiao Chen’s figure slowly landed on the shore. However, when he saw his head of white hair, like snow, rising in the wind, his hands behind his back, it did not lessen … the aura of a king.
At this moment, everyone held their breaths nervously. The surroundings were so quiet that the sound of needles falling could be heard, as if even their heartbeats and breathing could be heard clearly.
Everyone opened their eyes wide and didn’t dare to move. The Yun Sect man in Qingyi’s face was already flushed red, but he was stunned and unable to struggle away.
“Chen, Brother Chen …”
At this moment, Leng Baihu walked over. He hadn’t been seriously injured just now. In the past few days, his internal strength had become much deeper. In addition, after consuming the Spirit Qi Vermillion Fruit, he had already cultivated his profound strength. If it was in the past, even if he hadn’t died under the attack of the Qingyi man, he would have been seriously injured.
Xiao Chen looked at him and turned around. He coldly stared at the Qingyi man in front of him. He flicked his palm and spat out a gust of strong wind. With a “bang”, the Qingyi man instantly spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards without the slightest bit of resistance.
“Childe …”
The Old man Zi Yi behind him was so frightened that his heart shattered. He hurriedly rushed over to catch him. At this moment, blood was constantly flowing out of the Qingyi man’s mouth. It was obvious that his organs were damaged. He could not even speak anymore, but he just stared at Xiao Chen motionlessly.
Old man Zi Yi forced himself to calm down and quickly took out two immortal pills from his sleeve and fed them to the man in Qingyi. Only then did the injuries in his body ease. However, just as the two of them were about to leave, Xiao Chen’s cold and faint voice sounded from the other side of the cold lake again. “Did I tell you to leave?”
These words caused everyone present to feel as if they had fallen into an abyss. Not only were Yun Sect’s few people frozen in place, even cultivators from other sects didn’t dare to move a single bit, even though they didn’t have any grievances with Xiao Chen in the past.
Actually, it wasn’t strange. Although the cultivation of these young people was stunning, Xiao Meng’er and Chen Yu Feng were both disciples of noble families. In the eyes of outsiders, they were all people who “obeyed order” and wouldn’t kill easily.
However, Xiao Chen was different. Everything that he did from the beginning to the end caused one’s heart to tremble. It was as if he was accompanied by bloodshed and slaughter. How could everyone not be afraid of such a’vicious name ‘?
At this moment, everyone was silent. Especially those who had shouted that he was the Lord of Diabolism at the beginning, it was even colder as if they had fallen into a deep pond. Under this tense atmosphere, their entire bodies couldn’t help but tremble.
Xiao Chen slowly took two steps forward. His cold gaze was like two sharp cold swords slashing across everyone’s hearts, causing them to feel as if they were facing an abyss, not daring to look directly at him.
“Just now, I heard you say … I’m from Diabolism? The Lord of Diabolism …”
A cold voice sounded in everyone’s ears. Everyone’s hearts trembled. Look at me, look at you, but none of them dared to speak.
At this time, Leng Baihu walked over and pointed at those people. He said hatefully, “They said that Brother Chen is a great devil and that Brother Chen has killed many people …”
The more he spoke, the redder his eyes became. It was as if he couldn’t even hold back his tears anymore.
Actually, he grew up in White Fox Villa. He had been stubborn since he was young and would never shed tears in front of others. But just now, he had heard everyone say that Xiao Chen was a Great Devil. He couldn’t say anything about these people, and no one came to help him.
Helplessness, fear, and grievances filled his heart. Now that Xiao Chen had come out, it was as if he had spat out all the grievances in his stomach. Naturally, he couldn’t help but gather his tears.
Hearing Leng Baihu’s words, everyone was even more frightened. It was as if they saw Xiao Chen’s gaze become even colder and more terrifying. Immediately, someone said, “No, it’s nothing. Who, who is talking nonsense …”
Many people were so frightened that they were speechless. At this moment, another old Taoist who looked funny walked out of the crowd. However, looking at him with a sparse beard and torn clothes, he was like a beggar on the roadside. He turned around and looked at the crowd, as if he was shouting, “Who said that just now?”
The crowd was stunned for a moment, then a lot of people pointed at him, “Weren’t you the loudest just now?”
“Really? Oh … damn it!”
The old Taoist slapped his forehead, turned around, looked at Xiao Chen, and kept saying, “Look what I’ve done. How can I slander the respected Lord Lustless Heaven as the Lord of Diabolism? I swear, I must have been kicked in the head by a donkey to say such stupid things …”
After a while, the crowd gradually quieted down. At this moment, everyone looked at Xiao Chen, hoping that this matter would pass. In the end, there was no real grudge between them.
Xiao Chen slowly shifted his gaze from the crowd to Yun Sect and the others. As soon as the three old men in red saw his gaze, they immediately felt that something was wrong. They wanted to escape, but they believed that with their opponent’s cultivation, they only needed a single strand of divine sense to stay behind.
“For the past ten years, you’ve been refining living pills with the blood souls of mortals. The heavens and earth have never tolerated your slaughter. Do you still want to leave this place?”
Xiao Chen looked at the three of them with icy cold words. When the surrounding people heard this, they were all shocked. What did this mean? What was refining a living pill from a mortal’s blood soul?
The three old men in Yun Sect were even more ashen. There was no trace of blood on their faces. The other two were also shocked. They did not know what the three of them had done for ten years. However, the fact that mortals were refining pills was too shocking. No matter how orthodox Yun Sect was, how could his subordinates commit such an outrageous deed?
Old man Zi Yi said anxiously, “Venerable Lord Lustless, I, Yun Sect, did have some grudges with you in the past, but there is no basis for it. Venerable Lord Lustless, don’t spread rumors and slander here!”
“Brother Chen didn’t create any rumors or slander!”
At this moment, Leng Baihu rushed forward angrily. His eyes were slightly red as he pointed at the three people in Yun Sect. “I saw it with my own eyes that night! There were many blood pools there that they had personally told me to refine living pills from mortals! And he even killed a person!” At the end of his sentence, he pointed at the red-clothed old man in the middle.
“Nonsense … nonsense!”
The red-clothed old man was already panicking. His face was extremely pale. He looked at Old man Zi Yi beside him and said in a trembling voice, “Elder, Elder, don’t listen to a little brat’s nonsense …”
“What exactly is going on …”
At this time, the people from afar also gathered here. Using mortals to refine a Living Pill was truly too shocking. How could it be done by cultivators? What the hell is this Yun Sect doing?
“That’s right! I saw it that night!”
Right at this moment, another girl’s voice sounded from afar. Everyone followed suit. This time, the one speaking was the girl standing beside Xiao Meng’er.
