As the Universe Turns - Chapter 773
Chapter 773 Tense Confrontation
At this moment, the clouds outside Lustless Heaven surged endlessly. Not long after, streaks of sword light flew towards them. They were as close as the cultivators of Tai Shi Dao Sect and the Lu Clan.
“Whoever comes, quickly stop!”
The disciples of Lustless Heaven immediately stepped forward to stop them. However, the sword lights did not stop. They were still approaching Lustless Heaven. They only stopped when they reached the place where they were about to break through the weak ancient restriction.
There were about forty to fifty people who came, and the elders led by them had the highest cultivation. At this moment, an elder dressed in cyan clothes stepped forward and said loudly, “Old Tai Shi Dao Sect Xuanzhengzi, I am here today to see the Lord of Lustless Heaven.”
The sound pierced through the clouds, causing some disciples with shallow cultivation levels to feel dizzy. After a long time, there was no response from inside. The old men of Tai Shi Dao Sect exchanged glances. Could it be that Xiao Yichen was really not inside?
Even so, forty to fifty people didn’t dare to act rashly before Elder Tai and the Lu Clan’s elders arrived. Then Old man Qingyi continued, “If Lustless Excellency is inside, please …”
Unexpectedly, before he could finish his sentence, a faint male voice came from inside. “What are you? Did you see Excellency as soon as you said it … Do you think you’re worthy?”
A man dressed in black slowly walked out with a folding fan in his hand. It was none other than Yang Xiaoran.
At this moment, Yang Xiaoran was not in a state of chaos. He came to the front as if nothing had happened. He raised his hand and the disciple behind him retreated. He said indifferently, “A few kittens and puppies today, and a few kittens and puppies tomorrow. Any kittens and puppies want to see Excellency. Do you think Excellency is as idle as you all?”
“You!”
Tai Shi Dao Sect and the Lu Family disciples were both enraged, but Old man Qingyi’s expression did not change. He looked at him and said, “Ten years ago, Venerable Lord Lustless accepted the primordial spirit of one of my disciples. I came here today to ask how Venerable Lord Lustless was willing to let go of the primordial spirit of that disciple of mine.”
“Oh …”
Yang Xiaoran closed the folding fan and knocked on his forehead. As he pondered, he said, “It seems that something like this happened. However, Excellency should have long forgotten about what happened ten years ago.”
Old man Qingyi said, “We are not here to start a war with you today. If Venerable Lord Lustless needs any conditions, just let us know.”
Yang Xiaoran raised his head, looked at him, and said indifferently, “I just said that Excellency is in seclusion and has no time to see some kittens and dogs. If you have anything else to say, just stay here and finish it in one breath. When Excellency comes out of seclusion, I will naturally convey it to you.”
“If you can’t say it, then it’s gone!”
At this time, two old men flew up from behind with their swords. Their tone was rather impatient, and the murderous aura on their bodies instantly became much colder.
Yang Xiaoran smiled faintly, “What else? Your Excellency is at the Secret Devil Cliff right now. I won’t stop you today. If you guys can’t figure it out, why don’t you come in and find him yourself? I’ll make way for you now. Please …” Then, he stood aside and purposely gestured for him to come out.
“You!”
The two old men were anxious, but they quickly calmed down. This brat deliberately angered himself, causing his mood to be in a state of chaos. At this moment, he and the others must not be in a state of chaos until they have found out the truth.
“What’s the ruckus!”
At this time, Madam Xian Shu, Master of Moon Valley, and the others also came this way. Seeing that Madam Xian Shu was coming, Yang Xiaoran immediately retreated to the side and bowed slightly, “Madam Xian Shu.”
Madam Xian Shu’s expression was cold as he walked forward. He looked at the people outside Tai Shi Dao Sect and said coldly, “What are you doing in Lustless Heaven today?”
Seeing a member of the board of directors come out, Old man Qingyi smiled earlier. His words were the same as before. After listening to what happened to Feng Wuyin ten years ago, Madam Xian Shu’s tone was still cold. “Excellency is cultivating in secluded meditation at the Secret Devil Cliff. I won’t see you guys. If there’s anything else, come back in three months.”
“Humph!”
A skinny old man behind Old man Qingyi snorted coldly and said in a strange tone, “Are you refusing to come out to meet me, or are you not in Lustless Heaven at all?”
As soon as these words were spoken, the atmosphere in the vicinity froze. Everyone was silent. The elders from the Tai Shi Dao Sect and the Lu Clan stared motionlessly at Madam Xian Shu’s face, hoping to see some clues from the changes on her face.
However, from the beginning to the end, Madam Xian Shu’s expression remained expressionless. At this moment, his gaze was still cold. “I said, Excellency is cultivating in secluded meditation at the Secret Devil Cliff. I told you to come back in three months. Then come back in three months. If you continue to entangle yourself, you won’t have to leave today …”
As soon as these words were spoken, both the nearby and distant disciples of Lustless Heaven immediately formed an array. However, they saw a dense crowd of people. They didn’t say much, more than 3,000 people. Apart from that, there were also 24 people of Night Shade who were hiding in the shadows and waiting for orders at any time.
Seeing this kind of posture, the dozens of people from the Tai Shi Dao Sect and the Lu Clan finally felt a little timid, and they were no longer as arrogant as before.
A few old men with high cultivation transmitted divine will to each other. No one could be sure if Xiao Chen was in Lustless Heaven. If they could be sure that Xiao Chen was not in Lustless Heaven, they would immediately gather people and charge in.
However, if Xiao Chen rushed in like this, none of them would be able to come out alive. All of them had lost their lives in vain. Especially when their cultivation was at their level, they were only one step away from reaching the Harmony Stage. If they were to reach the Harmony Stage, they would be able to enter the Sage Stage. That meant that they cherished their lives even more than ordinary people.
The two sides were stuck in a stalemate. Madam Xian Shu was still as angry as a mountain and her face remained motionless. If she revealed a bit of nervousness, she would definitely teach the other party to see through the truth.
After a while, the clouds in the distance suddenly surged violently again. At the same time, a red sword light approached. That aura was even more powerful and suffocating.
Seeing the sword light flying closer, Madam Xian Shu remained motionless until the sword light was getting closer and closer. Finally, it turned into an old man dressed in a red robe. There was an immortal mark between the old man’s eyebrows. Judging from his aura, he was at least an expert who had just entered the Harmony Stage!
Although the early Harmonious Stage cultivators were only a step away from peak Ruined Heaven Realm experts, this step was different from the heavens and earth. At this moment, with the arrival of this Harmonious Stage expert, the atmosphere on the scene became even more solidified and tense.
“Elder …”
A few elders from Tai Shi Dao Sect immediately bowed to the newly arrived red-robed elder. This red-robed elder was not Elder Tai, but an elder from a certain palace in Tai Shi Dao Sect. His status was slightly higher than that of Shen Quezi and Xuan Jizi.
The red-robed elder’s eyes were cold as he looked coldly at the people inside Lustless Heaven. He took two steps forward and sent a divine sense to the old men. Immediately after, the expressions of the old men changed. When they looked inside Lustless Heaven again, killing intent was clearly in their eyes.
“Shit …”
Master of Moon Valley and Yang Xiaoran thought to themselves that something was wrong. Could it be that they had taught these people to see through that Excellency was not in Lustless Heaven …
At this moment, the killing intent in the vicinity of Lustless Heaven suddenly increased. Almost just as Tai Shi Dao Sect and the Lu Clan’s elders were about to make a move, a cold and faint male voice finally sounded from behind them, “Is this how you want to see me?”
As his voice fell, A chill instantly enveloped them. Including the red-robed elder, it was as if they had fallen into a bottomless abyss. They felt an endless chill coming from behind them. It was as if a sharp cold blade was resting on their backs. As long as they moved a little, this sharp blade could instantly pierce through their hearts and take their lives.
