As the Universe Turns - Chapter 982
Chapter 982 Yun State
Twilight gradually fell, and Xiao Chen’s expression became more and more solemn. He might have alerted Yun State Beigong Clan by now. If he continued forward, everyone would probably know that he was going to pass through Yun State.
If that was the case, even if Beigong Clan allowed him to pass through Yun State, other than Yun State, they would definitely gather all forces to wait for him to leave, which would definitely add a lot of trouble.
It would be good if he quietly walked around Yun State this night, but once he was discovered, things would probably become even more complicated.
When the time came, people would say something terrifying. Rumors would spread like wildfire. Lord Lustless Heaven would sneak past Yun State with the two Medicine Saints at night. What kind of manners would he have when he said that?
“Thousands of kilometers ahead is the territory of Yun State. We can only force our way through.” Hua Weiyang’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, but at this moment, his gaze was very fixed, not moving at all as he looked at him.
If it was in the past, Hua Weiyang was worried about his safety. No matter what, it would be impossible for him to walk dangerously, much less let him know that there were mountains and tigers, biased towards the Tiger Mountain.
But this time, it was different. This time, he came to Yun Yaochuan as the Master of Lustless Heaven to invite Medicine Saints and Medical Saints … He couldn’t lose his identity.
Therefore, this time, she would not advise Xiao Chen to walk around, but even if there was a life and death tribulation ahead, a sea of sabers, mountains, and flames, she knew that it was not feasible, so she accompanied him and would never take a step back.
“Mm …”
Xiao Chen nodded and stared into the depths of the clouds in front of him. At this moment, his gaze gradually became solidified. This time, it was probably time to test him.
What he had to face wasn’t just the entire Yun State, not only the three Quasi-Saints with unfathomable cultivation bases in Beigong Clan, but also the various forces in Spirit Ruins Realm. No matter what, he had to invite Shui Hanyan and Bu Yundian back to Lustless Heaven safely.
The night gradually fell. Shui Hanyan and Bu Yundian knew that this matter was of great importance. There were too many people in Spirit Ruins Realm who wanted to “invite” the two of them away. At that time, those people would probably not be as polite to them as Xiao Chen.
At this time, Shui Hanyan raised his head and looked at Xiao Chen’s faintly visible profile as the night fell. He frowned slightly and asked, “Do you have anything against Beigong Clan?”
“Mm, it’s not a big grudge …”
Xiao Chen nodded and didn’t say anything else. If he really wanted to talk about his feud with Beigong Clan, then he would have to talk about it too long ago. At that time, the only people who came from Spirit Ruins Realm were the Tai Shi Dao Sect and Lu Clan’s cultivation forces that were attached to the Beigong Clan.
Later, the conflict intensified. It was Beigong Changfeng who didn’t hesitate to expend his blood essence. With the Bei Gong Clan’s powerful restriction, he took advantage of the defenses outside Lustless Heaven to seal Lustless Heaven for three years, while Xiao Chen killed Bei Gong Wuyin. At the same time, he killed his disciples in front of Wushuang City that day.
However, in the end, within the entire Beigong Clan clan, a tiny Beigong Changfeng was nothing, so the feud between him and Beigong Changfeng did not rise to the level of a dispute between the two clans.
Even though Beigong Changfeng had been his enemy back then, perhaps it was someone from above who had instructed him to do so, it was not impossible for the Bei Gong clan to abandon their car after the incident. Otherwise, how could he not have seen experts from Spirit Ruins Realm to stop him during this period of time in Beigong Clan? And no one has ever come to Lustless Heaven to cause trouble.
At this moment, Xiao Chen seemed to understand something. Although Beigong Clan did not come to trouble him during this period of time, Beigong Clan must know everything about his actions. Even Hill of Illusory Ruins knew about the last time he went to Acheron Valley, Tianzhu City, and Qilin’s illness, Beigong Clan, to protect him.
Seeing that night was gradually falling, Xiao Chen looked at the mountains ahead and said, “What do you think of crossing the mountains ahead and entering Yun State tomorrow morning?”
Hearing this, Bu Yundian was slightly stunned. Since there was a grudge, could it be that he was still going to the enemy’s territory? On the other hand, Shui Hanyan had roughly understood what he meant, but at this moment, he could only do so.
…
The night gradually darkened. A group of people crossed the mountains. In front of them was an endless plain. At that time, Moon was hanging high, and the bright moon was thousands of miles away. It illuminated the boundless wilderness as clear as water.
At this time, in Yun State City, the disciples of Beigong Clan were still awake. Everyone was quite nervous. It was unknown what the three elders were discussing in the hall at this late hour. Why couldn’t they wait until tomorrow morning?
At this moment, the door of the hall was tightly shut and the lanterns were swaying. Several disciples had their ears pressed against the crack in the door, wanting to hear what the three elders were saying. However, it seemed that the elders had set up a soundproof barrier inside, and they could not hear the conversation outside.
“Second, third, what do you think of what we just said?”
At this moment, there was an old man with white hair sitting at the head of the hall. The old man wore a sandalwood robe and looked dignified. However, at this moment, he was deeply frowning. Between his brows, he could see a faint trace of worry.
This person was none other than the Bei Gong Clan’s Yun State, Bei Gong Zhengyang.
On the left and right side of the hall, there were two people. One was a green-robed old man, the other was Old man Zi Yi’s Second Elder and Yun State. These three people had reached the Transformation Realm, and their cultivation levels were extremely high. They had already entered the Quasi-Sage realm.
The light in the hall was dim, and the three of them could vaguely see the worried expressions on their faces. Clearly, the three of them already knew that Xiao Chen was heading towards Yun State with the Medicine Saint and the Medical Saint. Even with their divine sense, they could sense where the other party had already gone.
Tonight, they were also worried about this matter. After a long time, Third Elder from the right hall said, “If Big Brother and Second Brother think it’s okay, I don’t have any objections. It’s just that Xiao Yichen will come to my Yun State tomorrow, with Bu Yundian and Shui Hanyan by his side. At that time, there will definitely be countless people. I’m afraid that something will happen.”
“Yes, I naturally know this …”
Above the hall, Bei Gong Zhengyang frowned slightly and stroked his beard. Tonight, he discussed with his two twins for most of the night. If he said that he didn’t want to stop Xiao Chen, it wasn’t that he didn’t want to at all.
However, the current Xiao Chen was no longer the same person as before. Back then, even a tiny Beigong Changfeng could bully the other party, but now, even they had no choice but to be afraid of this person.
Right now, Lustless Heaven’s power was far greater than before. As for how powerful Xiao Chen had become, they all knew that it was not that they did not want to intercept him, but that they were truly unwilling to bring disaster to Yun State.
They knew that this person could not be provoked. Once they provoked him, unless they had absolute confidence in annihilating all of the opponent’s forces and capturing him in one go, if this person was to take revenge, then the entire Yun State would definitely be in trouble in the future.
However, the three of them knew very well that they did not have such strength at present. Moreover, there was a mysterious and unfathomable Hill of Illusory Ruins on Tianzhu City’s side.
Bei Gong Zhengyang really couldn’t figure it out. Tianzhu City had always ignored the outside world. That time in Acheron Valley, how could Sick Qilin suddenly come out? But also against Heavenless Palace, which was simply unimaginable.
Right now, the entire ancient land of Xianyuan, be it Spirit Ruins Realm, the Xianyuan Five Realms outside, the Wuwang Sea at the western pole, the Canghai at the eastern continent, or even the Four Seas and Eight Desolates, could be said to have a volatile situation in the entire ancient land of Xianyuan.
Although the three of them had Quasi-Sage cultivation, they knew that in this storm, they could only protect themselves and could not interfere in other matters. Xiao Yichen’s identity was mysterious and his own strength was extremely terrifying. They really did not want to provoke such a person for no reason.
Ten thousand steps back, so what if he intercepted the other party? What good would it do them? To force the other party to hand over the Di Gu Sword, or to reveal the cultivation technique on the remnant of the Heavenly Book? None of this was of any use to them, nor did they covet it.
Right now, as long as they cultivated properly, there would be a day when they would become saints. During this period, they were most afraid that something would go wrong. Therefore, the three of them discussed for most of the night and finally decided to let Xiao Chen pass through Yun State tomorrow.
Not only did they have to let Xiao Chen pass through Yun State, but the three of them also had to stand guard to ensure that Xiao Chen could leave Yun State smoothly. As long as Yun State came out, they would have nothing to do with anything else.
However, the major powers would still give Beigong Clan face tomorrow. They would not make a move in the city, but they were afraid that something would go wrong.
After thinking for a long time, Bei Gong Zhengyang finally loosened his eyebrows. It was as if he had finally made a final decision. He only heard him say, “Send more men tomorrow to place a ban on martial arts in all parts of the city. Anyone who causes trouble will not be spared!”
“Alright …”
The other two nodded. After a while, the Third Elder raised his head and asked, “What about … Yu’er? I’m worried about him … don’t let anything happen tomorrow.”
Upon hearing this, Bei Gong Zhengyang’s eyebrows gradually tightened as he lowered. “Tomorrow, let someone look after him. He is not allowed to leave the mansion for half a step. This decisive Xiao Yichen attack is definitely not something he can provoke with that little bit of skill …”
