Chapter 218 - Hand Her Over
In fact, Qin Jue quite admired Shen Zhiwen.
In such a world where the strong preyed on the weak, it was very admirable that Shen Zhiwen could persist in protecting the weak.
This was also the reason why Qin Jue never did anything to Shen Zhiwen. Otherwise, with Shen Zhiwen's "actions", Qin Jue would have turned him into an idiot long ago.
Seeing Shen Zhiwen's dumbfounded expression, Qin Jue knew that Shen Zhiwen did not have the same foresight he did.
Sometimes, being too naive could make one seem foolish.
However, the sect master of the Profound Yellow Sect had lived for hundreds of years, so it was impossible for him not to notice. After all, the Profound Yellow Sect and the Xuanyi Mountain Sect had never had any relationship. Since Shen Zhiwen was speaking up for the Xuanyi Mountain Sect, he would easily figure out that something was up.
Coupled with the fact that Long Zhen had sent experts to warn them some time ago, it was obvious what was going on in that sect master's head.
"Sorry, Senior…"
Shen Zhiwen finally realized the seriousness of the problem and looked ashamed.
"Forget it, Just be more careful in the future."
Qin Jue waved his hand helplessly.
In any case, because of Long Zhen, it was no longer possible for the Xuanyi Mountain Sect to stay as a small remote faction like before.
Moreover, with Mu Ziqi advancing to the Legendary Stage, it was only right for the Xuanyi Mountain Sect to become the fourth major sect. There was no need to deliberately hide it.
Qin Jue didn't want to reveal his strength, but that didn't mean he wanted to stop the Xuanyi Mountain Sect from becoming stronger.
Although Qin Jue felt this way, Shen Zhiwen still felt that he had done something wrong. He quietly stood in place and didn't dare to speak again.
At this moment, Luo Weiwei suddenly woke up from her cultivation. When she saw Shen Zhiwen beside her, she was slightly puzzled.
However, Luo Weiwei was already used to Qin Jue bringing back some strange figures, so she didn't ask any more questions. Instead, she jumped down from the blue stone and began to practice her martial techniques.
With Luo Weiwei's current cultivation talent, she believed that it wouldn't be long before she could break through. If there were no accidents, she would be the fastest disciple to step into the Earth Stage, after Qin Jue.
"Hmm?"
Suddenly, Qin Jue frowned and looked into the distance.
"What is it?"
Shen Zhiwen asked subconsciously.
"There are a few auras approaching." Qin Jue said seriously.
Before he could finish his sentence, a strange air-transportation spirit artifact appeared at the end of his field of vision. It was extremely fast. One second, it was still far away, and the next, it had already arrived above the Xuanyi Mountain Sect.
…
"What's that?"
At the same time, the leaders of the various factions also began to notice the air-transportation spirit artifact.
Qin Jue wondered who it could be since even the three sect masters had arrived. Could it be that there were still other Martial Dao factions in the Southern Land that had not appeared?
"What powerful spirit energy fluctuations!"
"One, two, three… Heavens, there seem to be five Legendary Stage experts!"
"What is happening?"
The three sect masters looked at each other and could see the shock in each other's eyes.
No single faction in the Southern Land could send out five Legendary Stage experts at once. Even the Three Major Sects had to join forces to send out such a force.
Could it be the faction behind the Xuanyi Mountain Sect?
Before the three of them could figure it out, more than a dozen figures flew out of the air-transportation spirit artifact and floated above their heads.
As expected, the five people in the lead were all Legendary Stage experts. They emitted a dense pure Yang aura that was like a scorching sun in the sky, making it difficult to look straight at them.
Most importantly, three of the five Legendary Stage experts had already reached the peak of the Legendary Stage. Such a huge force was enough to sweep through the Southern Land!
The other cultivators were also Supreme Stage experts. All of them had scorching spirit energy that spread out and sealed off the entire Xuanyi Mountain Sect.
The leaders of the various factions who were prepared to leave were forced to retreat and could only stay and watch.
"Is this the location indicated on the spirit tablet?" Luo Feng looked around and said indifferently.
"That's right."
"Very good, let's go down and take a look." Luo Feng's expression was cold as he said condescendingly.
As soon as he finished speaking, the five Legendary Stage experts in the lead slowly descended, and they didn't conceal their auras at all, as if they wanted others to know that they were very strong.
"Who is the master of this place?"
Luo Fengyang said.
"It's me."
After a moment of hesitation, Bai Ye stepped forward and said, "May I ask who you are and what's the matter?"
For some reason, he felt that the other party had ill intentions.
"Hand her over."
Luo Feng said coldly.
Hearing this, Bai Ye was stunned. "Who?"
"Since you're so stubborn, don't blame us for what we're about to do to you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Feng directly slapped out with his palm, causing vast spirit energy to surge towards Bai Ye!
Facing the attack of a Legendary Stage expert, Bai Ye had no time to react at all. He could only watch helplessly as the spirit energy attacked.
"Hu!"
Just as the spirit energy was about to land on Bai Ye, another strand of spirit energy shot out from behind and arrived first, forming a barrier that blocked the attack.
Boom!
Terrifying energy ripples spread out continuously on the spirit energy barrier. However, the spirit energy barrier remained as firm as a rock, not moving at all.
Mu Ziqi also silently appeared beside Bai Ye with a grave expression.
When the energy ripples dissipated, the spirit energy barrier finally shattered with a bang and turned into specks of light that dissipated.
"Oh? Interesting. A mere early-phase Legendary Stage cultivator can actually block my attack."
Luo Feng was slightly surprised.
Seeing this, the cultivators present looked at each other, not understanding what was going on. In particular, the three sect masters even thought that they had seen wrongly.
Shouldn't these experts be from the forces behind the Xuanyi Mountain Sect? Why would they attack their own people?
Did they get it wrong?
"Who exactly are you?" Mu Ziqi frowned and said coldly.
"Hehe, is she your trump card?" Luo Feng answered with a question.
"No wonder you dared to act some presumptuously."
Bai Ye :"…"
What was this guy talking about?
Was there something wrong with his head? Was he going around taking revenge on society?
"I'll say it one last time. Hand her over. Otherwise, no one can leave here today." Luo Feng said unquestionably.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked. If he had only come to cause trouble for the Xuanyi Mountain Sect, then they wouldn't have any complaints.
But why should they also suffer?
After all, those were five Legendary Stage experts!
Immediately, a faction leader stepped forward and said, "Sect Master Bai, what exactly did you do? Hurry up and hand her over."
Bai Ye looked in the direction of the voice. He remembered that this person had been very respectful to him just now and wanted to worship him like his own father. He didn't expect this person to be the first to stand forward.
However, Bai Ye wasn't angry. At a moment of life and death, no one had the time to think about things like that.
However, it would be absolutely impossible for him to rely on the Xuanyi Mountain Sect in the future.
"Yeah, Sect Master Bai, quickly hand that person over." Soon, someone else chimed in.
"For the Xuanyi Mountain Sect to rise in such a short period of time, they must have done something shameful."
"Hmph, I suspected it long ago."
"…"
"…"
In the blink of an eye, everyone's attitude changed drastically. They all began to blame Bai Ye, no longer having the congratulatory tone they had before.
Only Bai Ye remained calm and collected.
Because he knew very well that the strongest person in the Spirit Central World was in the Xuanyi Mountain Sect. So no matter where these fellows came from, it would be them who would eventually have to pay the price!
