Chapter 1732 You're Quite Charming
The Qingcheng Imperial Dharma Sect, headed by the Jingshi Sect.
Su Hongzhen was anxiously awaiting news of the complete eruption of the Demon Abyss, imagining the Mingchuan and Wanchuan Sect struggling and being destroyed in the demonic energy, and a ferocious and gleeful smile would occasionally appear on his face.
Suddenly, a communication jade talisman in his bosom, representing an emergency, exploded without warning!
At the same time, the life-bound soul lamps he had set up in the sect's soul hall to monitor the core members of this operation all went out at the same instant!
This included the leader of the late-stage Golden Core Shadow Guards, as well as three Core Formation Elders!
"puff--!"
Su Hongzhen's body trembled violently, as if struck by a heavy blow. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his face instantly turning ashen, his eyes filled with disbelief, horror, and bewilderment.
"How...how is this possible?! They're all dead?! Who? Who did this?!"
He frantically tried other means of communication, but received no response.
A chilling, bone-chilling fear coiled around his heart like a venomous snake.
Just then, the door to the quiet room was suddenly kicked open, and Su Hao and Luo Yang stumbled in, both of them pale and terrified.
"Sect Master! The people from the Holy Domain Dragon Roar Temple have arrived! They dealt with the Demon Abyss, which is now on the verge of collapse, and then headed to the Myriad Rivers Sect. They even praised the Mingchuan Barrier for its excellent work!"
"Could they be forming an alliance?!"
Su Hongzhen's vision blurred, and his ears rang: "What?!"
He suddenly stood up: "Then... what is the current situation of the Demon Abyss?"
Su Hao quickly recounted the previous events: "When the Dragon Roar Temple descended, Xuan Yangzi discovered that the turmoil in the Demon Abyss was man-made and wiped out those people in one move. Meanwhile, Fairy Yueyao reinforced Mingchuan's barrier with a flick of her finger!"
Su Hongzhen gasped, nearly fainting on the spot.
Those...those who remained around the Demon Abyss were all his trusted confidants!
"Quickly... quickly, go and call back all the people from our sect who are scattered outside! Activate the sect's protective formation, now!"
Su Hao and Luo Yang were bewildered. They were unaware of Su Hongzhen's scheme and had been happy that the Demon Abyss had not yet erupted. However, seeing Su Hongzhen's current deranged state, they were both somewhat afraid of him.
"Hurry up! What are you all standing there for?!"
"Oh... okay! Let's go right now!" Su Hao immediately pulled Luo Yang and turned to leave.
Su Hongzhen was left alone in the main hall, his chest heaving with anger.
……
Qingfeng Yumen.
Sect Leader Ye stood atop the main peak, gazing northwest with a furrowed brow.
He held a jade slip containing a message he had just received in his hand, his expression solemn.
"The Holy Domain Dragon Roar Sect descended upon the Black Wind Mountains, annihilating the sabotage squad of the Qingcheng Imperial Law Sect. Fairy Yueyao stepped in to reinforce the Mingchuan Barrier..."
He muttered to himself, "As expected... Mingchuan is using the Holy Domain's sword not only to resolve the crisis in the Demon Abyss, but also to completely eliminate the Qingcheng Imperial Law Sect as a future threat?"
Ye Chuhan stood beside him, her usual playful demeanor unusually absent, and said with concern, "Father, those people from the Holy Domain are not easy to deal with. That woman, Fairy Yueyao, is notoriously domineering; she'll find a way to get whatever she sets her sights on. I'm afraid her coming down here isn't just for the Demon Abyss, is it? Will Mingchuan be in trouble?"
Sect Master Ye nodded slowly: "Trouble is inevitable. Fairy Yueyao's comment, though seemingly a compliment, has actually placed Mingchuan in the eye of the storm. Next, she will definitely go to Wanchuan Sect. Whether it's a blessing or a curse depends on how Mingchuan handles it."
He pondered for a moment and said, "Send the order down to put the sect on high alert and not participate in this matter for the time being. However, if anything goes wrong with Mingchuan, and if the Holy Domain wants to take him away, then we must take action. We absolutely cannot let the Holy Domain drain the talent pool of our Spirit Domain again!"
Ye Chuhan nodded: "Okay!"
When the other three sects learned of the news, they all shared the same thought as Sect Leader Ye.
Remain inactive.
But if Fairy Yueyao does anything out of line, the entire army will be mobilized!
Even if it means death, we must keep Mingchuan here; we absolutely cannot let the Holy Domain take him away!
As for the Qingcheng Yufa Sect, they're dead, so be it. They were useless trash.
……
Within the Wanchuan Sect.
The arrival of the Sacred Domain Flying Ship in Black Wind Valley, the annihilation of the Qingcheng Imperial Law Sect, and Fairy Yueyao's intervention to reinforce the barrier... This series of earth-shattering news swept through the entire sect like a hurricane.
All the disciples were shocked and horrified, and they discussed it among themselves.
"A sacred domain! It really is a sacred domain!"
"Fairy Yueyao said our sect leader is responsible!"
"Those bastards from the Qingcheng Imperial Law Sect, it really was them who did this! They deserved to be wiped out by the Holy Domain!"
"The sect leader is injured and in seclusion... Could the Holy Domain Fairy have come to help the sect leader heal his injuries?"
"I don't think so... People from the Holy Land, why would they be so kind as to come and help?"
Jin Man watched as the white jade flying boat, shrouded in holy light, cruised through the void between the Black Wind Mountains and the Wanchuan Sect in a seemingly casual yet precise manner, clearly searching for something.
Her brows furrowed tighter and tighter.
"That woman... she really has no good intentions." She muttered under her breath, then turned and strode quickly toward the quiet room in the back hall where Mingchuan was in seclusion.
Inside, Mingchuan was sitting cross-legged on the jade couch. Hearing Jinman enter, he asked, "What's wrong? How's the situation outside?"
"What's going on?" Jin Man walked up to him, crossed her arms, and looked down at him. "The situation is that the Holy Domain Fairy you brought here is now wandering around outside like a headless fly! Judging from her attitude, she won't give up until she finds the entrance to our Wanchuan Sect!"
Her tone was clearly angry: "Elder Ye is right next to her. With that woman's abilities and the methods of the Dragon Roar Temple, it probably won't be long before she can locate the coordinates of our sect hidden in the void! She's probably going to come looking for you and make you marry into the Holy Domain!"
The sourness in those words almost permeated the entire quiet room.
Mingchuan chuckled: "If Fairy Yueyao could really recruit me so easily, wouldn't I, Mingchuan, be worthless?"
Jinman rolled her eyes: "So what are you planning to do next? They don't seem to be the way you think they are, ready to help you deal with the Qingcheng Yufa Sect."
"Maybe this time they're going to forcibly take you away."
Just as Mingchuan was about to speak, another commotion came from outside the door.
"Mingchuan! Where are you?! Get out here right now! Stop pretending to be dead in there!" Ran Qianqian's fierce voice suddenly shattered the silence of the room.
"Holy crap!" Mingchuan's heart skipped a beat, and he turned around to look for a place to hide.
With a loud "bang," the door was kicked open by Ran Qianqian.
Leng Xi and Dong Chuyan followed behind her, one on each side.
Ran Qianqian gritted her teeth as she watched him and Jin Man alone together, and sneered: "Well, well, you have the vice sect leader here with you, and there's a fairy-like beauty outside searching for you. You really have quite the charm!"
