As the Universe Turns - Chapter 79
Chapter 79 You Hurt Me
“Shit …”
Yi Chen immediately thought to himself. The cultivator’s cultivation was extraordinary. He was far above the two old men from before. He didn’t have time to think carefully. He turned around and struck out with his palm. With a “rumble”, the two palms collided, causing him to continuously retreat with a “thump”. The qi and blood in his body surged endlessly in an instant.
A cyan figure landed on the ground. That person’s gaze was as cold as ice. He wore a cyan Daoist robe, his temples were white, and he held a whisk in his hand. It was precisely the current Sect Leader of the Immortal Retention Sect, Yang Zhen Zi. His palm strike just now seemed to have at least three hundred years of cultivation. He only cared that the person in front of him was a disciple of Ling Yin. Otherwise, how could Xiao Yichen still stand there?
“Sect Leader!”
Seeing the Sect Leader come out of seclusion, all the disciples quickly gathered together. It was precisely because Zhenzi Yang was in seclusion, otherwise, Hua Weiyang would not have stolen the zither so smoothly.
“Young Hero Xiao, this matter has nothing to do with you. Please leave.” Zhenzi Yang’s cold sword-like gaze landed on Xiao Yichen and he said calmly.
Yi Chen secretly circulated his cultivation technique in his palm, calming down his True Qi and sending a secret message to Hua Weiyang, “This person’s cultivation is far above yours and mine. You wait for the opportunity to leave, and I’ll stall him.”
He knew that the person that the Immortal Retention Sect wanted was Hua Weiyang, so he wouldn’t do anything to him. However, the people of the Immortal Retention Sect seemed to be rather narrow-minded, and they also determined that Miss Wei Yang was a member of the Devil Religion. If she fell into their hands, a little girl’s family might suffer some harm.
“Humph!”
Zhenzi Yang snorted coldly. He swept his hand through the dust and released a powerful force. It immediately transformed into seven or eight strands of sword qi. Seeing that the sword qi was coming ferociously, Hua Weiyang instantly took out Hua Fei Hua. The umbrella instantly grew red and rotated, and the seven or eight strands of sword qi were cancelled out by Zhengzheng Zhenzheng.
“Young lady, you have injured the people in my valley. Don’t want to leave so easily today. As for Young Hero Xiao, if you insist on protecting him, then you will be offended.”
Zhenzi Yang’s gaze was neither cold nor hot. After he finished speaking, he raised his hand and said, “Set up the formation!”
As he finished speaking, eighteen figures appeared behind him. Those people were dressed differently from ordinary disciples, each holding a jade zither in their hands.
“Shit …”
Yi Chen immediately thought to himself that something was wrong. In the next moment, the eighteen people were playing with the strings at the same time. The zither sounds immediately rushed over like strong winds and waves, instantly shaking the nearby vegetation and causing the rocks to shatter.
“It’s the Eighteen Immortal Retention Zither …”
Hua Weiyang’s expression also changed slightly. Once the eighteen zither appeared, even the immortals would have to stay.
The sound of the zither grew tighter and tighter. In an instant, the paths between the two of them had been sealed. The eighteen zither of the Immortal Retention Sect had been dispatched. This time, the two of them would not be able to escape even if they stabbed their wings.
“Young Hero Xiao, if you don’t step aside, I’m afraid that you’ll be hurt by the zither music,” Yang Zhenzi said with his right hand holding the whisk and his left hand behind his back.
Seeing that the zither was getting faster and faster, the blood in Yi Chen’s body was already surging. Even if he could temporarily shut his hearing, he could not block the sound wave from entering his body. Even if Hua Weiyang had a flower-like umbrella to block the sound wave, it would still be difficult for him to block it. If they continued, they would definitely exhaust Genuine energy and surrender.
Suddenly, Yi Chen thought of something and took out Fuxi Zither. He saw that the zither’s body was dragon and phoenix hidden. It was extraordinary. The seven zither strings were as if they were real, and the light was flickering. How could he not recognize Ling Yin’s Fuxi Zither? He never thought that Ling Yin would actually give this zither to his disciple.
“Shit …”
In the next moment, Yang Zhenzi suddenly realized something. However, it was too late to stop him. As usual, Yi Chen placed his finger on the string of the zither and a Genuine energy poured into the zither. This time, it was not the same as before when he fought against Wei Yang’s zither. Instead, he used his own strength to turn into sound waves. Instead, he activated the divine power in the zither.
At this moment, the jade zither shone brightly and was dazzling. It almost reflected him like a heavenly deity. Even he was shocked. In the next moment, he could no longer control this divine power. With a “zheng” sound, the zither string loosened. The zither sound immediately rushed towards the opposite side like a ten thousand zhang wave. Wherever it passed, the vegetation and rocks instantly turned into powder!
“Bang, bang, bang!”
There was a chaotic sound. Dozens of disciples of the Immortal Retention Sect were sent flying. The eighteen people were also sent flying backwards in an instant. Even so, the zither music continued to rush forward like an ancient god of rage, almost destroying the entire Immortal Retention Valley. The palaces and buildings collapsed after being shaken by the zither music.
Zhenzi Yang’s eyes widened. In an instant, he flew over. True Qi traveled through his entire body in an instant, and his dao began to circulate for nearly 400 years. However, even so, he was still shaken back by the zither’s sound. His eyes were bloodshot, and blood oozed out from his palms. The veins on his forehead burst out, and he retreated dozens of feet before dissolving the remaining power of the zither sound, so that the Immortal Retention Valley would not be reduced to nothingness.
“It’s over … Master will definitely kill me this time.”
Yi Chen looked at the horrible scene in front of him and was stunned. He never thought that Fuxi Zither would lose control of his divine power at this moment. It was over. This time, he had caused a great calamity.
“Hey! Idiot! What are you waiting for? Let’s go!” Seeing that he was dumbfounded, Wei Yang shouted in a low voice.
Only then did Yi Chen wake up like a dream, and he couldn’t care less. Come with Master to apologize in the future, and put Fuxi Zither away. He unfolded Ling Xianbu and slipped out of the valley with Hua Weiyang.
Only after running a hundred miles did Yi Chen dare to stop breathing. However, when he thought about how he had almost destroyed half of the Immortal Retention Valley, it was as if he had already seen Master’s terrifying gaze. He immediately felt his hair stand on end.
“Hahaha, I’m dying of laughter. Did you see that just now? They look so miserable …”
Wei Yang smiled back and forth, and Yi Chen glared at her, “You still said that! I told you to apologize, but you still wanted to stand up for me! How about this time?”
“Are you blaming me?” Wei Yang shrugged his shoulders and said, “Look at those people, they are completely unreasonable.”
“I think you’re the one who’s unreasonable!”
Yi Chen looked at her angrily. He thought that if he had known that the people of the Immortal Retention Sect were so stingy, he would have sent someone to send Qin back. Now that he had failed to make an apology, the situation had become more and more chaotic. If he went back, he would have been scolded to death by his master. Perhaps he would have been punished …
Wei Yang smiled and said, “Don’t worry, they won’t go to Xuanqing Sect to cause trouble for your master.”
“If you say you won’t, then you won’t?”
“Mm, if I say no, I won’t.” Wei Yang nodded seriously.
“Forget it, I’m too lazy to tell you.” Yi Chen shook his hand and said, “When I met you, I really poured out all my luck in my next life. You were simply sent by the Jade Emperor to harm me!”
Wei Yang snorted, and a smile bloomed on his face like a spring flower, “Then what did I do to you?”
“You’re hurting me … You’re going to make me go back and be scolded to death by Master!”
Wei Yang covered his mouth and smiled, “Then I said you hurt me.”
“I hurt you?” This time, Yi Chen was about to jump up. He pointed to the back and said, “I was helping you all the way. You still say I hurt you? You still have a bit of a conscience?”
“Humph! You’re hurting me.”
“What did I do to you?”
“You hurt me” Wei Yang sneered, “I won’t tell you.”
“You … forget it.” Yi Chen shook his hand, thinking that it was unreasonable to speak to this person. He shook his head and said, “What did you say? Only women and lowly people in the world are difficult to raise …”
“Say it again? Who did you call a villain?” Wei Yang glared at him.
Yi Chen looked at her and finally felt powerless. He waved his hand and pointed to the front. “I don’t want to tell you anymore. There’s a fork in the road ahead. From now on, the road to the horizon is far away. Jianghu will never be seen again.”
“Oh …”
Wei Yang pouted his lips and looked at him faintly, “If you don’t see it, then you won’t see it … I’ll just leave. I won’t pester you anymore.” With that, he took a step forward and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
“You really left?”
Yi Chen looked at her disappearing back. For some reason, he felt a trace of disappointment in his heart. He shook his head forcefully and didn’t think about it anymore. He had to leave this place as soon as possible.
After traveling another two hundred li, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. Why had Fuxi Zither suddenly become so powerful just now? Could it be Long Night? That’s not right. Normally speaking, Yiye was still asleep. Otherwise, he would have jumped out of the zither he had played for so long a few days ago.
“Kid, did you cause trouble this time?”
Right at this moment, a young man’s voice sounded faintly. Yi Chen was slightly shocked, “Long night? Ah! Long night, you’re finished. You just nearly destroyed half of the Immortal Retention Valley. Go back and see how you explain it to Master.”
“Bullshit!”
Yi Ye directly transformed into an illusion. He placed his hands on his chest and snorted coldly, “I’ve caused trouble, and I still want to throw the blame on me. Let’s be frank, I woke up because I sensed Fuxi Zither’s divine power.”
‘”I don’t care. You’re Yi Chen’s soul anyway. If you don’t like the zither and let its divine power jump around, you’ll have to bear half the responsibility.” Fuxi Zither curled his lips and said, “I don’t care. You’re Fuxi Zither’s soul anyway. You don’t like the zither.”
“Haha!” Su Ye had always been cold and arrogant, but at this moment, he actually made him laugh, “You brat, do you still want to lose face? You are trying to be a hero to save beauty, but you still want to blame me for this disaster. I have never seen you so shameless as you, the previous master of Fuxi Zither.”
“Chi!” Yi Chen raised his head and said disapprovingly, “That’s why they all died miserably.”
“Forget it.”
Su Ye shook his hand and said, “Little brat, that little girl’s background just now is not simple.”
“What do you mean?”
At this moment, Yi Chen’s expression became serious. He could also feel that if the “strange mother-in-law” had accidentally bumped into him last time, then it was no coincidence that she had suddenly appeared beside him this time.
Su Ye said, “Otherwise, how could she have left in such a hurry just now …”
“You mean …”
Yi Chen frowned. Could it be that Miss Wei Yang could sense Su Ye’s existence? That’s why she left in such a hurry. Then why was she afraid of Su Ye?
“Alright, that’s all I have to say. Little brat, take a long snack. Someone has already set their eyes on you. Don’t take out Fuxi Zither so easily.”
After saying that, Su Ye yawned and was about to return to the zither. Yi Chen stretched out his hand and said, “Wait! Tell me first, what happened to Fuxi Zither just now?”
Now that he thought about it, it was no coincidence that Fuxi Zither suddenly lost control of his divine power.
After pondering for a while, Su Ye said, “As I expected, the zither soul of the primordial music has fallen asleep for tens of thousands of years and is awake.”
