As the Universe Turns - Chapter 662
Chapter 662 Mo Bian
At this moment, there was only the sound of the wind blowing through the Asura Valley. No one spoke. Xiao Chen was shocked by the True Qi just now and his internal breathing was in chaos. However, there was still the Jade Light Heart Technique and it quickly stabilized. At this moment, he stared at Daoist Feng Yin on the clouds and was ready to fight back.
In midair, Daoist Feng Yin also looked at him. His face was calm as still water as he slowly said, “Little friend trespassed on the Heavenly Gate today, and even destroyed the Demon Subduing Pillar, killing many people. Could it be that he just wants to leave like this?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the crowd became even quieter. Xiao Chen stretched out his hand and slowly stood in front of Hua Weiyang. He stared at Daoist Feng Yin in midair, his tone neither humble nor arrogant, “The Heavenly Gate captured him for no reason. Should Xiao let you kill him? Today’s matter is not mine, but yours …”
Both sides had their own words. After a while, Zhen Feng Yin said, “Forget it, I met Qing Xuan. Now, put down the weapon in my hand. Today, my life can be saved.”
At this moment, Di Gujian was still glowing with blood, and the soul-seizing sword energy was still there. Xiao Chen sneered coldly. If he hadn’t had Di Gujian in his hands today, what would have happened? It was hard to predict what would have happened. He would have let Di Gujian go and been captured. This is simply ridiculous …
Daoist Feng Yin couldn’t help but frown when he saw his cold smile. Ordinary people didn’t know that Di Gu was formidable. It was normal. Even the Eight Palace Elders didn’t know that Di Gu was formidable. Was the Ancient Era’s Peerless Profound Armament just saying that? Fortunately, the Di Gu Sword Soul hadn’t awakened yet. If Di Gu awakened today, which of the eight of them would have survived until now?
Evidently, Daoist Feng Yin knew better than anyone how powerful this peerless profound weapon was. If his sword soul awakened today, it would be impossible for the other two junior brothers to block this sword together. He was deeply afraid of Di Gu, and that strand of True Qi just now was only a test.
The entire valley became exceptionally quiet at this moment. Everyone held their breaths and watched the scene in front of them. Not a single person spoke. Obviously, even if Daoist Feng Yin did not attack today, he might not be able to escape completely.
“Idiot …”
Hua Weiyang’s face was pale as he gently pulled his hand, as if it was the scene at Lian Fengtai back then. However, at that time, Ling Yin was still protecting him, but now, who was protecting him here?
“Let’s go …”
Xiao Chen ignored Daoist Feng Yin completely and turned a blind eye to him. He pulled Hua Weiyang and turned around to walk outside the Asura Valley.
Everyone outside was stunned. They didn’t expect that he would be the same when facing Daoist Feng Yin. Many people couldn’t help but recall the scene at the Profound Azure Sect’s Lianfeng Platform back then. The person who had severed all his meridians and crippled his cultivation seemed to be saying that words that still echoed on the cliff: “All of my abilities were taught by Master. Today … I have returned them all to Master.”
Many people still sighed in their hearts when they thought of what had happened back then, especially Elder Qingfeng. Although he had not personally witnessed that scene in the Black Azure Sect back then, he had heard people talk about it later and recalled the stubborn and unyielding youth on the fighting arena back then …
Every time he thought about it, he felt extremely sad. It had been three hundred years since Ling Yin had produced an outstanding disciple. Now, with great difficulty, Xuanqing Sect had produced such a peerless genius. However, he had taught those people to force themselves to jump off the cliff to prove their innocence.
And today, it was as if the old things were happening again. Everyone from the various sects and sects had arrived, just like back then. But this time, how would they force him?
The cold wind was like a blade. There was not a single person in the valley who spoke. It was only when Xiao Chen was about to walk outside that a white-haired Taoist from Qingyi suddenly stood up and looked at him coldly. He said calmly, “Young Hero Xiao, let’s not care if Adept Feng Yin investigates what happened today or not. At least, you can’t leave now.”
“Who are you?”
Xiao Chen stopped and asked coldly as he looked at the person blocking his way.
At this moment, a lot of people came up from behind. Looking at the gazes of these people, they all seemed to have come with ill intentions. Daoist Qingyi said, “Qingtong Mountain, Qingyuzi, there is something you don’t know. So today, I would like to ask Young Hero Xiao for advice.”
Hua Weiyang’s face was pale. He glanced at him and gently moved his pale lips, “You Taoist priest, what do you want to ask? Just ask, why did you bring so many people up to block your way?”
Qingyuzi looked coldly at Xiao Chen and said, “Thirty-one years ago, it was also at this time. One day, my junior apprentice-brother went down the mountain and did not return for seven days. When I went to find him, I discovered that he died at the foot of the mountain. In his chest was the palm power of the Nine Yin and Nine Yang Profound Arts …”
Hearing him say this, many people in the vicinity began to discuss. The originally quiet valley suddenly became somewhat noisy. Qingyuzi continued, “As for Young Hero Xiao, it seems that he possesses this Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique …”
Hua Weiyang knew what he wanted to say from the beginning. He only wanted to inquire about Xiao Cangtian’s whereabouts. At that time, he smiled and said, “Thirty-one years ago, Young Master Xiao was just born. I’m afraid that even if he learned this Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique in his mother’s womb, he wouldn’t be able to kill your junior brother, right?”
Qing Yuzi said coldly, “At that time, it was impossible for Young Hero Xiao to kill people. However, everyone knows that this Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique is the unique technique of the Nine Yin Blood Demon Xiao Cangtian. No one in the world knows this technique. Xiao Cangtian disappeared 31 years ago, but now Young Hero Xiao possesses this technique. What do you say?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the discussions in the vicinity grew louder. Many people echoed, “Back then, that dog thief Xiao Cangtian relied on his profound cultivation. He used the Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique to kill 27 people in our sect. He swore that he would not be able to take revenge for this. He swore that he would not be a human!”
“Back then, Xiao Cangtian had killed countless people in order to seize the Heavenly Book, but he hid himself, making it impossible for anyone to find him, because he knew that if he appeared, he would undoubtedly die …”
The discussions in the surroundings grew louder and louder. Everyone present today naturally remembered what happened more than 30 years ago. At that time, the Heavenly Book appeared in the world, attracting countless people from the Righteous and Devil Dao. In the end, the Heavenly Book fell into Xiao Cangtian’s hands. However, Xiao Cangtian brought the Heavenly Book and disappeared from the world.
Not long ago, there were rumors that Xiao Chen had a close relationship with Xiao Cangtian, and that he had even learned the Nine Yin Nine Yang Mysterious Technique through direct inheritance. That day, outside the Ten Thousand Forest Sword Tomb, it was confirmed that this matter was not false.
That was why so many people from various sects had come to the Heavenly Sect this time. They were definitely not here for the sake of judging the demonic woman. Even Hua Wei Yang’s life and death had become irrelevant to them.
What they truly cared about was the whereabouts of Xiao Cangtian and the remnants of the Heavenly Book. They knew that Xiao Chen would definitely come to the Heavenly Gate to save Hua Weiyang this time, so they rushed here in advance.
At this moment, Xiao Chen’s expression remained unchanged in the face of countless people’s icy questioning gazes. What happened today was within his expectations. How could he not know the intentions of these people?
Qingyuzi continued, “I heard that Young Hero Xiao joined Xuanqing Sect at the age of twelve. I wonder when Young Hero Xiao learned the Nine Yin Nine Yang Mysterious Technique.” “As far as I know, this Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique has a special characteristic. It must be cultivated step by step. To be able to cultivate to the peak of Young Hero Xiao’s proficiency, even if Young Hero Xiao’s talent is outstanding, it will probably take at least ten years, right?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the surroundings became even quieter. The people who were originally whispering to each other stopped and stared fixedly at Xiao Chen. If he had already learned the Nine Yin Nine Yang Profound Technique before joining Ling Yin Sect, then the whole thing would probably be even more extraordinary.
Xiao Chen stood there silently. Everyone in the vicinity remained silent. The entire valley instantly became filled with needles. At this moment, an icy cold and stern voice suddenly sounded from behind, “Speak, where is Xiao Cangtian?”
