Feng Xutao fled in panic, but before Luan Yu could catch up to him, the person who appeared in front of him stopped him in his tracks.
A blue platform suddenly rose from the calm sea. On the platform, the elegant and graceful Sect Leader Zhenling looked at Feng Xutao, who stopped in front of her in panic, with a faint smile.
"Liu Tianling, it's you!"
Feng Xutao knew he couldn't escape, so he gritted his teeth.
Another ray of light approached Feng Xutao from behind. When the ray of light disappeared, Luan Yu stood behind Feng Xutao and bowed slightly to Liu Tianling.
Liu Tianling also bowed slightly to return the greeting.
Liu Tianling knew Luan Yu's identity. Although the Wood Luan Clan was on the decline, they were starting to recover with Lu Ping's help. Although they were under Zhenling's protection, Luan Yu was now the leader of the Wood Luan Clan. From this point of view, Luan Yu's identity was equivalent to Liu Tianling's. Out of gratitude or because of Lu Ping, Luan Yu treated Liu Tianling as a senior, but Liu Tianling still had to respect the Wood Luan Clan's leader.
However, the simple greeting between the two confused Feng Xutao. From the way they bowed, it seemed that the young cultivator wasn't Zhenling's disciple. Even Liu Tianling was respectful to him. Could it be that Zhenling had invited outside help?
This thought only flashed through Feng Xutao's mind for a second. Now that the two of them were blocking his way, he could not afford to think about anything else. It was a moment of life and death. Feng Xutao could not afford to think about anything else.
"Liu Tianling, do you want to start a war between Xuan Ling and Zhenling?"
Feng Xutao's fierce expression was a little funny in Liu Tianling's eyes. "Fellow Feng, you think too highly of yourself. Are you sure you can start a war between our two sects with your identity?"
"Of course!"
Feng Xutao's decisive tone somehow revealed a trace of guilt. "Don't forget that Cang Hai Sect is definitely willing to ally with our sect. Huang Li Island has probably been massacred by the Fiend army already. If you leave now, the Old Man will promise to persuade Zhenling's teacher to back out of this conflict with Zhenling!"
Liu Tianling let out a long sigh and said, "Feng Xutao, you still don't realize the situation you're in? This is already Xuan Ling Sect's territory, why hasn't anyone from Xuan Ling Sect come to rescue you?"
Feng Xutao's expression changed drastically. The young cultivator behind him seemed to be thinking about it as well. Then, as if he had suddenly realized something, he said, "Oh, you've been abandoned!"
"Impossible!"
Feng Xutao opened his mouth to deny it, but the panic on his face betrayed him. However, he still tried his best to find a reason to boost his confidence. "Absolutely impossible! I am Xuan Ling Sect's Dao Sheng Laozu's eldest disciple, the future leader of Xuan Ling Sect. How can I be abandoned? Haha, Teacher must be on his way to help me. Liu Tianling, if you leave now, you might be able to keep your lives. Otherwise, once Teacher arrives, you will definitely die in his hands. Teacher will avenge me, so you must not kill me …"
Seeing Feng Xutao slowly going crazy, Luan Yu said quietly, "He has already broken down!"
Looking at this person who was once an outstanding second generation disciple like him falling into madness because of being abandoned by the sect, even though Liu Tianling was the Sect Master, he couldn't help but sigh. Hearing this, he said softly, "If that's the case, Clan Leader Mu Luan, please help me free him!"
Lin Xuqing led the Xuan Ling Sect disciples back to Xuanling Island, but saw that the two Laozu's, Dao Sheng and Dao Yan, were already waiting outside Xuanling Island.
Lin Xuqing was very careful. When he realized that the situation was not right, he immediately led the disciples to retreat.
Even so, along the way, he was ambushed by a masked lady. Although this lady was only at the early Dharma stage, her abilities were extraordinary. Her sleeves were like two agile snakes attacking, and the two swords in her sleeves were like the poisonous fangs of agile snakes. Lin Xuqing was sweating profusely from all the attacks she had made.
Fortunately, Lin Xuqing was still in the mid Dharma stage. After the initial panic of being ambushed, he was able to quickly calm down. After defending himself, he slowly launched a counterattack. Bit by bit, he was able to turn the situation around. However, it was beyond his ability to defeat the female practitioner in front of him.
However, just as he was being held back, Zhenling's cultivators came chasing after him. Although Zhenling was suspicious of the masked female practitioner's identity, those who made things difficult for Xuan Ling Sect were naturally allies. Without a word, they fought with the Xuan Ling Sect cultivators. That was when the casualties among the Xuan Ling Sect cultivators that Lin Xuqing led began to appear.
When he finally forced the masked female practitioner to retreat and led the disciples out of the encirclement, he suddenly heard the news that Lu Ping had returned to the North Sea. This shocked Lin Xuqing. Fortunately, most of the Xuan Ling Sect disciples he brought with him returned safely. Although many of them were injured, they were still alive.
When Dao Sheng Laozu saw that Lin Xuqing had returned safely, he could not help but say, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back!"
Lin Xuqing hurriedly said, "Uncle-Master, Senior Brother Feng is not back yet. He led his people too deep into the sea. It's very likely that he will encounter Lu Tianping or be hunted down. Please save him, Uncle-Master. I am willing to lead the way."
Unexpectedly, Dao Sheng Laozu said, "Settle the disciples first, then go to the Black Spirit Hall to discuss the matter later."
Lin Xuqing was stunned and quickly said, "But …"
However, after Dao Sheng Laozu said this, he turned and left. Lin Xuqing panicked and quickly asked Dao Yan Laozu for help.
However, Dao Yan Laozu sighed and patted him on the shoulder, saying, "It's good that you can come back! Before Senior Brother left the island, Tian Xiang blocked his door. "After saying this, he also turned and left.
Lin Xuqing's expression changed. After a while, he seemed to understand what had happened and murmured to himself, "It's over, it's over!"
After Zhenling's treasured ship went west, the North Sea Demon Race, Blue Sea Sect, and Xuan Ling Sect attacked Zhenling at the same time. The battles were mainly focused on Frost Island, Huang Li Island, and Scarlet Mist Island.
However, after Zhenling's treasured ship went west, he killed Blue Sea Sect's Eastern Pole Laozu, forced back the demon race's large-scale attack, and at the same time defeated Xuan Ling Sect's attempt to take advantage of Scarlet Mist Island. Zhenling's sect master Liu Tianling, Laozu, personally killed Feng Xutao. During this period, the strength that Zhenling displayed shocked the entire North Sea cultivation world.
When Lu Ping crossed the Stormy Ocean in his physical body and returned, the North Sea sects that were still restless had all ceased their activities. Many sects had even sent messengers to celebrate Zhenling's promotion to a large sect, including Xuan Ling Sect. They wanted to bury the hatchet with Zhenling so that they wouldn't be attacked by such a behemoth in the future.
Everyone already knew that Zhenling's power was now established, and the situation of him dominating the North Sea was irreversible. Also, from the strength that Zhenling displayed, even Fei Ling Sect's reputation in the North Sea was far inferior.
However, Zhenling's operation was far from over!
Although the conflict had been resolved by Zhen Ling Sect in a more forceful manner, the Blue Sea Sect, as the culprit behind all this, had only lost the Great Ancestor of the East Pole Sect, who could not be considered a true great cultivator, was clearly not enough to quell Zhen Ling Sect's anger.
Not long after Lu Ping returned to Frost Island, Zhenling's third generation Dharma adept, Tian Xiang, led the sect's cultivators to wipe out the Blue Sea Sect's forces on Frost Island. Zhenling then announced that all the Blue Sea Sect's profits from the spirit stone mines on Frost Island would be frozen. All the Blue Sea Sect's shares on Frost Island would be held by Zhenling. Zhenling's control over the large spirit stone mines on Frost Island was close to 50%.
The same situation happened on Scarlet Mist Island. With Lu Ping personally overseeing the situation, Zhenling's cultivators almost effortlessly took over the Blue Sea Sect's forces on the island.
The suppression of the Blue Sea Sect was far from over. The various forces on the outskirts of the Blue Sea Sect all suffered significant losses. Zhenling pressed forward, constantly reducing the Blue Sea Sect's forces in the North Sea. Many of the Blue Sea Sect's cultivators who tried to resist were immediately suppressed by Zhenling. One mid Dharma adept and one early Dharma adept died at the hands of Yin Tianchu and Luan Yu.
In Zhenling's series of operations, Luan Yu was always at the front line as Zhenling's vanguard.
This leader of the Wood Phoenix Tribe, who had grown up under the protection of others, after wearing the Demon Transformation Bracelet to remove the worry of being exposed, had been frantically learning from the experiences of others in the process of fighting. The growth of his abilities could be described as rapid. Even Yin Tianchu himself admitted that if they were to fight head-on, even he did not have the confidence to win against Luan Yu.
Earth Blaze Island was a medium-sized island that Zhenling had taken over from the Blue Sea Sect. It was the 39th medium-sized island that Zhenling now controlled. It was originally one of the wealthier medium-sized islands under the Blue Sea Sect's jurisdiction, but now it had become the frontline distribution center that Zhenling used to suppress the Blue Sea Sect.
At this time, Yao Tianyong was pacing up and down the island angrily, saying loudly, "I don't understand. With our sect's current abilities, we can easily kill our way into the Blue Sea Sect and completely wipe them out. Why do we still have to suppress them like this? If we don't kill a snake, it will bite us. Don't tell me everyone doesn't understand this? Why do we still keep the Blue Sea Sect!"
"Because Dongyi Laozu escaped!"
Lu Ping's voice sounded from behind Yao Tianyong, "Senior Brother, your impatience will not be good for summoning your first Lightning Tribulation in the future."
Yao Tianyong scratched his head and chuckled, "I'm also impatient. Let's not talk about this. Junior Brother, you said that we can't destroy the Blue Sea Sect because of Dongyi Laozu. What is the reason?"
Lu Ping said in a low voice, "Everyone should have heard about Xiao Baiyu killing Lv Taiqing in the Purple Sun Palace. But everyone knows that after leaving the Purple Sun Palace, Xiao Baiyu has almost never returned to Skyrend. Why does everyone think that?"
Yao Tianyong did not even think and said, "He's afraid of being hunted by the Purple Sun Palace. What's there to not know?"
Lu Ping shook his head and said, "No, he's afraid of being destroyed!"
